Now in a Minute is the debut studio album by British singer-songwriter Donna Lewis, released in 1996. The album is best known for the single "I Love You Always Forever", which broke the airplay record in the United States for exceeding one million spins on radio, becoming the most-played single up to that point.[4] Two other singles were released from the album, "Without Love" and "Mother".

A 25th anniversary edition, including the same tracks as the original CD, was released on vinyl in the United States on 2 April 2021.[5] Subsequently, an expanded edition of the album, including remixes and B-sides, was released on digital platforms on the album's exact 25th anniversary, 7 May 2021.[6]
