"Change" was co-written and produced by the Danish production duo Deekay, composed of Lars Halvor Jensen and Martin Michael Larsson. [1] Deekay wrote the song in collaboration with the Sugababes, consisting of Heidi Range, Keisha Buchanan and Amelle Berrabah. [1] British singer and songwriter Niara Scarlett also co-wrote the song. [2] It is the title track of the group's fifth studio album, which is the first to feature Berrabah, following the departure of Mutya Buena in December 2005. [3] The group's vocals on "Change" were recorded at the Electric Lady Studios in New York City. [2] Deekay arranged and programmed the song, and provided its instrumentation. [2] It was mixed by Larsson at the duo's studio in Copenhagen, Denmark. [2] DJ Swivel engineered the song. [2]

"Change" is a steady, midtempo pop ballad. [4] [5] [6] [7] Alex Fletcher from Digital Spy described the song as "a gentle, sweeping lament". [5] According to the digital sheet music published by Universal Music Publishing, "Change" was composed in the key of D minor using common time. [8] The tempo of the song moves at 85 beats per minute. [8] A soulful track, it follows the group's conventional style of balladry, although is more uptempo than their other ballads. [9] [10] Group member Berrabah sings the lead vocals on the song. [11] It contains anthemic melodies backed by a powerful 1980s guitar lick, [12] [13] and incorporates the group's harmonies into keys and sweeping effects. [5] The song's lyrics are about the experiences of change after the departure of a close friend and ultimately never being the same again, but the need to remain strong in the process. [14] The song samples "Time Lapse" from the Apple iLife for Mac royalty free samples. [15]

Release and reception

"Change" served as the second single from the album of the same name; its release was confirmed in October 2007. [16] The song was made available in the United Kingdom as a digital download on 10 December, while the CD single was made available a week later on 17 December 2007. [17] [18] "Change" was also released as a CD single in Germany on 8 February 2008. [19] The single's accompanying B-side is titled "I Can't Take It No More", [20] and was composed by the Sugababes, Jeremy Shaw and Jony Rockstar. [21]

Critical response

The song received mixed reviews from critics. Sunday Mail critic Mickey McMonagle called "Change" the album's best track and "a definite chart topper". [12] Alex Fletcher from Digital Spy and the BBC Chart Blog's Fraser McAlphine rated the song four out of five stars; the former regarded it as a "sophisticated pop ballad" and highlighted the Sugababes' vocal abilities, [5] while the latter described the chorus as "anthemic". [14] According to Dave Kelly of the Birmingham Mail , "Change" allows the Sugababes "to show that they have matured without surrendering their pop smarts". [11] In contrast, a writer from The Scotsman considered it "vapid", [22] while a critic for Manchester Evening News felt that the group's vocals were average. [10] Yahoo! Music's Emily Mackay criticised the song as "a limper retread" of the group's 2002 single "Stronger". [23] Tom Young of BBC Music wrote that "Change" "only flirts with credibility" due to the group's "irrepressible and watertight harmonies". [24] Writing for The Independent , Andy Gill regarded it as "colourless". [9]

Commercial performance

"Change" failed to duplicate the success of its predecessor "About You Now". It entered the Irish Singles Chart in the issue dated 13 December 2007 at number 47, and peaked at number 21 the following week. [25] The single debuted on the UK Singles Chart on 1 December 2007 at number 85, based on digital downloads from the album. [26] It was considered a contender for the chart's 2007 Christmas number one, [27] but only managed to reach number 13 in the issue dated 29 December 2007. [26] Consequently, it marked the first time since 2000 where the second single from their album failed to reach the top ten. [26] "Change" spent 14 weeks on the chart, [26] and had sold 95,000 copies in the UK by April 2010, making it their 15th highest-selling single in the country. [28] "Change" peaked at number 31 on the Netherlands' Dutch Top 40 chart, [29] number 32 on the German Singles Chart, [30] and number 36 on the Romanian Top 100 chart. [31] The song debuted on the Slovakian Singles Chart at number 69, and reached number 15 nine weeks later. [32] In total, it spent 16 weeks on the chart. [32] The single appeared on the European Hot 100 Singles chart at number 45. [33]
