"Never Say Die" is a song recorded by Scottish synthpop band Chvrches. Written by the band and its producer Greg Kurstin, it was released by Glassnote Records on 29 March 2018, as the third single from the band's third studio album, Love Is Dead. The song is also featured in the soundtrack of the 2018 video game Forza Horizon 4.
Tom Breihan of Stereogum wrote that the song leans towards "almost-EDM synth sounds", calling it "a clear attempt to swing at crossover stardom while still keeping the group's personality intact". Similarly, Winston Cook-Wilson of Spin opined that it features "a slinking R&B feel and a complementary, stuttering vocal cadence from Lauren Mayberry" while "retaining the band's typical arena-ready dynamics". Hayden Wright of CBS Radio deemed the song "an intense electro track with Lauren Mayberry's signature pop-friendly vocals". Robin Murray of Clash regarded the song as "a dazzling return" and "a deft fusion of light and shade", driven by Mayberry's powerful vocal and Kurstin's seismic production.
