A recorded version is rumored to exist.
An interview published in 2023 gives more details about the Nik Kershaw and Gary Barlow collaboration:
"(...) there were a few collaborations that never came to fruition, such as a track for Gary Barlow's second solo album that never saw the light of day.
“We probably wrote the worst song either of us had ever written,” he grimaces (...)".
When some rumors started to spread, in the early 2000's, that Nik Kershaw had co-written a song with Gary Barlow, fans looked for that song but couldn't find it.
And some fans tried to identify which of the Gary Barlow songs sounded like a Nik Kershaw song.
Forever Love seemed to be a good fit to some fans.
Yet, the credits on the record mention Gary Barlow as the sole writer of the song.
And more rumors started to spread.
It was claimed that Nik Kershaw was left off credits because it wouldn't help Gary Barlow gain success as a solo artist.
In early 2025, Nik Kershaw confirmed he had NOT been involved in the writing or composing of Forever Love with Gary Barlow.
This song was co-written by Nik Kershaw and Ian Gordon Curnow.
