Next Up Forever

"Next Up Forever" is a song by American pop band AJR, appearing as the opening track on their third studio album Neotheater.

After the success of the band's second studio album, The Click (2017), AJR began stressing if their career had peaked.

[3] The song is composed in 44 time signature in the key of B-flat major and follows a tempo of 90 beats per minute (bpm).

After the success The Click, AJR had a higher budget than their first two studio albums, so the band decided to spend more on their production.

A live orchestra was in the studio, re-performing a synthesizer demo into saxophone, flute, and string instruments.
