Change (Taylor Swift song)

"Change" is a song by the American singer-songwriter Taylor Swift, released on August 8, 2008, to promote the AT&T Team USA Soundtrack for the United States team at the 2008 Olympics. "Change" was included in Swift's second studio album, Fearless (2008). Swift wrote the track after winning the Horizon Award at the 2007 Country Music Association Awards; its lyrics are about overcoming obstacles to achieve victory.

Produced by Swift and Nathan Chapman, "Change" is a power pop song with dynamic strings and electric guitars. Music critics praised the production but found Swift's vocals weak and thin. The song peaked at number 10 on the Billboard Hot 100, number 21 on the Pop 100 chart, and number 57 on the Hot Country Songs chart. The Recording Industry Association of America (RIAA) certified the track gold. Shawn Robbins directed the music video for "Change" featuring Swift performing with a band in a ballroom. An alternate version features footage of the United States team at the 2008 Olympics.

Swift included "Change" in the set list to her first headlining tour, the Fearless Tour, in 2009 and performed the song live at the 45th Academy of Country Music Awards in 2010. After a 2019 dispute regarding the ownership of Swift's back catalog, she released a re-recorded version, "Change (Taylor's Version)", on Fearless (Taylor's Version), the 2021 re-recorded version of Fearless.
