Change (Sugababes album)

It was their first album to feature complete vocals by Amelle Berrabah, who joined the group following founding member Mutya Buena's departure in 2005.

Two other songs off the album were later released as singles the title track, and "Denial", both of which reached the top twenty in the UK; the latter was also commercially successful in mainland Europe.

Although, it was Amelle's first production, some of the songs from the album were allegedly leftover tracks that were originally intended to appear on Taller in More Ways (2005).

When inserted into the computer, the UK edition disc allows access to bonus features such as remix versions of "About You Now" and a special interview with the group, plus wallpapers and photos.

"Never Gonna Dance Again" was written by Sugababes members Keisha Buchanan and Heidi Range in collaboration with Miranda Cooper, Brian Higgins, Tim Powell, Lisa Cowling and Nick Coler.

[8] "About You Now" is an uptempo pop rock song that received generally favourable reviews from both music critics and fans alike.

During the chorus, Sugababes sing the lines "I lost the rhythm when you said it's over / As the final record starts to fade, I feel the dancefloor turning colder".

[11] Levine suggested that "Never Gonna Dance Again", along with the album's singles "Denial" and "Change", demonstrates the group has "managed to grow up without losing their way with a melody".

[10] Petridis called it a "classy" example of the group's "trademark clever, referential pop",[14] while The Independent's Andy Gill praised Xenomania's production of the song, saying that it "makes the most of its winningly logical melody".

[15] Ally Carnwath of The Observer wrote that the track is a "surprisingly energetic mope around the disco", although admitted that the "elegiac tone" of the song's lyrics is a "real comedown".

Lauren Murphy of Entertainment Ireland described it as "villainous pop" and wrote that it epitomises the "sexy 'give-a-damn' attitude that Sugababes have pretty much built their career upon.

According to him, the song contains "simple rocky edge" that gives the "rich textured voices" of Berrabah and Buchanan "plenty of room in which to excel.

"[24] Victoria Segal of The Times wrote that the "sticky disco of 3 Spoons of Suga should stop Mutya Buena's victory lap in its tracks".

[36] The Times claimed that the album was "only slightly better than All Saints outtakes, all dated production and pop tastefulness" but complimented tracks such as "My Love Is Pink" and "3 Spoons of Suga".

[40] In France, Change became the Sugababes' first entry on the French Albums chart since Three (2003), where it spent four weeks, peaking at number one-hundred and five.
