Unlike the previous single "Sugar and Spice", "Forever Young" was released both physically on CD and on 7 inch vinyl, as well as digitally.

The single version of "Forever Young" (the "Melt Music Edit") is shorter and slightly faster than the album version, having been remixed by drummer Daniel Woodgate's company Melt Music. There is also the "Future Cut Remix", which is also faster but resembles older Madness tracks. The B-side is a cover of the Billy Ocean song "Love Really Hurts Without You", recorded in the sessions leading up to Madness's 2006 album The Dangermen Sessions Vol. 1.
