Background and release
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 on 29 February 1988[2] and reached number two in the UK.
"Love Changes (Everything)" also reached number two in South Africa, number seven in West 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 US Billboard Dance Club Play chart, and number 12 on the Billboard 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."[3]
