On February 16, 1991, the single reached position 31 on the Billboard Dance Club Songs chart and remained there for a total of nine weeks. On April 6, 1991, Melendez made it to the Billboard Hot 100, peaking at number 35.[2] The single was one of the last freestyle songs to reach the Top 40 of the Billboard Hot 100. "Together Forever" is also credited as one of the few songs released in the 1990s that aided the revival of the "freestyle" genre's popularity, after the emergence of grunge.

The song was produced by Carlos "After Dark" Berrios, who also produced the 1991 song "Temptation" by Corina. This often explains the similarities in the two songs.

In 2008, the music video of the song was satirized by Marcos Mion on MTV.
