Changes is a song by Black Sabbath. It first appeared on Black Sabbath, Vol. 4 which was released in 1972. It is a ballad about relationship loss, and is uncharacteristic of Black Sabbath's music. The song is dominated not by crunchy guitar and bass, but instead by keyboard and mellotron.
The song has been covered by numerous artists, including The Cardigans, who cover a Sabbath song on every album. In 1993, Ozzy Osbourne (Black Sabbath's lead vocalist) re-recorded the song himself as a single (taken from the Live and Loud album), although it failed to chart in the UK.
A decade later Ozzy recorded yet another version of the song, this time with his daughter, Kelly Osbourne as a duet. The revised lyrics for this version, released in 2003, reflect the moments of their life together. The single reached #1 in the UK.
