Background
"I Don't Want to Miss a Thing" is a song by American hard rock band Aerosmith that served 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 was written by Diane Warren, who originally envisioned it would be performed by "Celine Dion or somebody like that". U2 were initially asked to perform the song for the film – the idea of using Aerosmith only came about after Liv Tyler was cast. The song received its airplay premiere on May 12, 1998, and was officially added to radio a week later.
