2nd Wind was the 13th album released by Todd Rundgren, as well as his last one for a major label.
Rundgren terminated his relationship with Warner Bros. Records shortly after its release. He was said to have grown increasingly unhappy with the label's insistence that he start including single-worthy material.[citation needed]
The album includes two songs ("The Smell of Money" and "If I Have to Be Alone") from the musical Up Against It. "Love Science" vaguely recalls the Thomas Dolby hit "She Blinded Me with Science." Other songs, such as "Gaya's Eyes," continue the new, more adult sound introduced on the preceding album Nearly Human.
Always a believer in cutting-edge technology, the musician would use the video for the album's only single, "Change Myself," as a showcase for the NewTek Video Toaster, a desktop video card for the Commodore Amiga computer.
