Of the single, the band said, “This is one of the first songs we wrote after our debut was out. ‘Change’ was originally a working title, but in the end it fitted well with the new elements in the band’s sound – as well as the life-changing events described by lyricist Børild. To keep the jangly and ragged feel of the original demo we didn’t rehearse this song before playing it live in the studio, and it is that first take that ended up on the album. We dubbed the guitars with a high-strung acoustic guitar, and Øystein Frantzvåg and Frode Strømstad added synth and vocal harmonies. It’s sort of a follow up to ‘Give Me Some Love’ from our first album and the closest we’ve come to writing a ballad.”
