Forever for Now is the sixth studio album by Canadian rock band April Wine, released in 1977. The album features a variety of genres, including country, Western, Latin, Caribbean, blues, soft rock and easy listening.

Initially, the album sold moderately, peaking at #19 on Canadian charts in March^[3] before dropping down. Then the 1950s-style ballad "You Won't Dance with Me" became a surprise hit, selling more copies than any previous April Wine single and breathing new life into the album's sales. The single and album peaked on their corresponding charts during the same week of July 9, 1977, at #6 and #5, respectively.^[4][5] Both the single and the album were certified platinum in Canada.
