"Changing" comes from All at Once, the second studio album by the Airborne Toxic Event, released by Island in April 2011, and it's Mikel Jollett's song top to bottom: he's credited with the words and the music.

Jollett framed the album as a step away from the debut, which he summed up as nothing but sad songs about girls; this time around, he noted, there were only three of those. The band leaned harder on keyboards and cranked the volume in places while still leaving room for acoustic songs, and every track was billed as autobiographical except one, "Welcome to Your Wedding Day", a reaction to the Deh Bala wedding party bombing.
