“I Don’t Want to Miss a Thing“ is a song by American hard rock band Aerosmith as the theme song for the 1998 science fiction disaster film Armageddon, in which lead singer Steven Tyler’s daughter Liv starred. It is one of four songs performed by the band for the film, the other three being “What Kind of Love Are You On“, “Come Together“, and “Sweet Emotion“. The power ballad[3] was written by Diane Warren, who originally envisioned it would be performed by “Celine Dion or somebody like that“.[4] The song received its airplay premiere on May 12, 1998, and was officially added to radio a week later. “I Don’t Want to Miss a Thing“ was first released in Japan on July 29, 1998. In the United States, it was originally supposed to be a radio-only single from Armageddon: The Album, but due to popular demand, Columbia Records issued the song commercially in August 1998.[6][7] It subsequently debuted at number one on the Billboard Hot 100, giving the band their first and only number-one single in their home country. The song also peaked at number one for multiple weeks in several other countries, including Australia, Ireland, and Norway. In the United Kingdom, it sold over one million copies and reached number four on the UK Singles Chart. The song was covered by American country music singer Mark Chesnutt for his album of the same name. In early 1999, his version was a top-twenty hit on the Billboard Hot 100 while also topping the Billboard Hot Country Songs charts. ╔═╦╗╔╦╗╔═╦═╦╦╦╦╗╔═╗ ║╚╣║║║╚╣╚╣╔╣╔╣║╚╣═╣ ╠╗║╚╝║║╠╗║╚╣║║║║║═╣ ╚═╩══╩═╩═╩═╩╝╚╩═╩═╝ Here: Follow me here:
