Changes (David Bowie song) "Changes" is a song by David Bowie, originally released on the album "Hunky Dory" in December 1971 and as a single in January 1972.

This single is cited as David Bowie's official North American debut, despite the fact that the song "The Man Who Sold the World" was released in North America two years prior. This was the last song Bowie performed live on stage before his retirement from live performances at the end of 2006.
