"Love Changes (Everything)" is a 1987 single by British pop duo Climie Fisher that gained international success after a re-release in 1988. The song was later covered and released by house music duo Musikk. Songwriters Simon Climie, Dennis Morgan and Rob Fisher received the 1988 Ivor Novello award for Best Song Musically and Lyrically.[1]

Background and release

[edit]

Initially, it received poor sales and airplay, reaching number 67 in the UK and number 30 in the Netherlands. After the success of the hip-hop version of "Rise to the Occasion", the song was re-released with a slight remix by Bob Clearmountain in 1988 and reached number two in the UK.

"Love Changes (Everything)" also reached number two in South Africa, number seven in Germany, number eight in Switzerland, number 15 in Austria, number 23 in Australia, number 23 in the US Hot 100 and number 16 on the U.S. Dance Music/Club Play Singles and number 12 on the Adult Contemporary chart. AllMusic journalist Michael Sutton described Climie Fisher's version of the song as having "a chorus that adheres to the brain like glue. In limited doses it's as tasty as a chocolate sundae."[2]
