Don\u2019t Wanna Live Forever Lead Single | Fifty Shades Darker: Original Motion Picture Soundtrack (2016) \u201cI Don\u2019t Wanna Live Forever\u201d, alternatively titled \u201cI Don\u2019t Wanna Live Forever (Fifty Shades Darker)\u201d, is a sultry electro-R&#038;B ballad recorded by Taylor and English singer Zayn. It was written by Taylor, Sam Dew and Jack Antonoff. The song was released as the lead single from the Fifty Shades Darker movie soundtrack on December 9, 2016.\u201dI Don\u2019t Wanna Live Forever\u201d was Taylor\u2019s only release in 2016, and the first new material since her fifth studio album, 1989 (2014). Table of Contents Background and Release Zayn was already working on the song when he reached out to Taylor, asking her to jump on the track. \u201cTaylor heard an unfinished version of \u2018I Don\u2019t Wanna Live Forever\u2019 and was immediately inspired to go into the studio, finish writing the song and lend her vocals to the track,\u201d a source said at the time. Producer Jack Antonoff elaborated on the process, saying: \u00ab\u2019I Don\u2019t Wanna Live Forever\u2019 came together very quickly. Wrote it with Taylor and Sam Dew and produced it at home mostly on Paper Sounds\u2026recorded Taylor at my house. Zayn sent parts from LA \u2013 we did it in a week basically. I\u2019ve never had something come out that quick.\u00bb Jack Antonoff Though the song was a surprise collaboration to many, Taylor and the former One Direction star already had two connections: She had a much documented relationship with Zayn\u2019s 1D bandmate Harry Styles during the winter of 2012-13, and Zayn\u2019s then-girlfriend, Gigi Hadid, is one of Taylor\u2019s close friends. Taylor spoke about her collaborator in a behind-the-scenes video: \u00abI\u2019ve known Zayn for a really long time. I think his voice is one of those that is really rare and I think he\u2019s really special and wonderful and it\u2019s really, really amazing to get to work together. It\u2019s amazing when you get to work with people who you hang out with because the question of \u2018Will we get along?\u2019 is already answered. \u2018Yeah, we\u2019ll get along. It\u2019s Zayn. We hang out, like, it\u2019s fine.\u2019 He\u2019s also incredibly talented and I feel really lucky to get to do this song that I\u2019m really proud of with him.\u201d\u00bb Taylor Swift \u201cI Don\u2019t Wanna Live Forever\u201d was released without notice on iTunes, shortly before midnight on December 8, 2016. It quickly went to No. 1 on that tally. International success followed. Lyrical Theme \u201cI Don\u2019t Wanna Live Forever\u201d seems to mirror the plot of the book Fifty Shades Darker, in which one main character is estranged from the other and eventually gives the relationship another chance. Since it is a duet between Zayn and Taylor, the lyrics represent the two different sides of the relationship. More generally speaking, it is a sultry ode about feeling like life is hopeless without an ex-lover. Music Video The official music video for \u201cI Don\u2019t Wanna Live Forever\u201d takes place on a rainy night in London at the St. Pancras Renaissance London Hotel. It was directed by Grant Singer, produced by Saul Germaine and released on January 27, 2017 through both Zayn\u2019s and Taylor\u2019s official YouTube accounts at the same time, and was later uploaded through the official Fifty Shades Vevo account as well. The one uploaded on Taylor\u2019s channel has more than 670 million views as of September 2022. It was named the fourth best music video of 2017 by Vevo. Live Performances Taylor first performed \u201cI Don\u2019t Wanna Live Forever\u201d acoustically as a part of her set list for DirectTV\u2018s Super Saturday Night event on February 4, 2017.

She also included the song in the B-stage portion at her second Manchester performance of her \u201creputation Stadium Tour\u201d in 2018. On \u201cThe Eras Tour\u201d (2023-2024), \u201cI Don\u2019t Wanna Live Forever\u201d was the second surprise song during Taylor\u2019s show on June 3, 2023, in Chicago.
