  1. "Sue (Or in a Season of Crime)"
    Released: 17 November 2014

Nothing Has Changed (stylised as Nothing has changed.) is a compilation album by English musician David Bowie. It was released on 18 November 2014 through Parlophone in the United Kingdom, and Columbia Records and Legacy Recordings in the United States. The album was released in four formats: a triple CD version (sequenced in reverse chronological order), a double CD version (sequenced in chronological order), a double LP version, and a single CD version released exclusive to select countries.

It is the first album to showcase Bowie's entire career up to that point, from his first single "Liza Jane" in 1964 to "Sue (Or in a Season of Crime)", a new composition recorded specifically for the compilation. The different formats of the album all offer different tracks and mixes compared to the others. The three-disc version includes the most, such as songs from Bowie's unreleased 2001 album Toy. The collection also contains numerous discrepancies in its track listings. Its title comes from a lyric in the song "Sunday" from Bowie's 2002 album Heathen. Each of the different formats feature different cover artworks, all designed by Jonathan Barnbrook and all depicting Bowie examining himself in a mirror.

Upon its release, the album debuted at number nine in the UK, becoming Bowie's 29th top 10 album. Following Bowie's death in 2016, it went on to peak at number five in the UK and charted in other countries. It has been certified Gold by the British Phonographic Industry (BPI) in the UK. The three-disc version of Nothing Has Changed received critical acclaim, with many praising its reverse sequencing as offering a different way to enjoy the artist's career. However, it attracted criticism for its exclusion of Bowie's Tin Machine period, as well as its under-representation of the Berlin Trilogy (1977–1979). Nevertheless, it is considered one of Bowie's best compilation albums.

A revised version of the two-disc Nothing Has Changed, re-titled Legacy, was released on 11 November 2016 and includes selections from his final album Blackstar (2016).

Background and content

[edit]

On 9 September 2014, an announcement was posted on Bowie's website and Facebook page: "It is with much pleasure that we can exclusively announce a career-spanning collection of Bowie's music covering fifty years of recorded works from his 1964 debut, 'Liza Jane', through to a brand new recording made this year. Nothing Has Changed compiles tracks from every period of Bowie's career and features new single; 'Sue (Or in a Season of Crime)', which was specially recorded for the compilation with long-term collaborator Tony Visconti."[1] The album's title comes from a lyric in the song "Sunday" from Bowie's 2002 album Heathen.[2][3]

The different formats of Nothing Has Changed all offer different tracks and mixes compared to the others. The three-disc version includes songs from Bowie's unreleased 2001 album Toy: "Your Turn to Drive", previously a download-only single, and a previously unreleased re-recorded version of "Let Me Sleep Beside You",[4] as well as the 2003 Ken Scott mix of "Life on Mars?", the 2007 Tony Visconti mix single edit of "Young Americans", the 2010 Harry Maslin mix of "Wild is the Wind", the stereo mix of "All the Young Dudes", and the 4:08 radio edit of "Love Is Lost (Hello Steve Reich mix)" (the last two of which are also included on the two-disc version). All formats contain what biographer Nicholas Pegg calls the "loud" single mix of "Starman", while the one- and two-disc versions contains the 4:46 promotional edit of "Absolute Beginners".[3]

However, the compilation also contains numerous discrepancies in its track listings. The 'UK stereo mix' of "Space Oddity" found on the vinyl and one-disc versions is actually a new edit sourced from the 2015 remaster (Pegg also notes that the song was recorded in mono). The version of "Diamond Dogs" is a new edit containing both a fade-in and an early fade-out, while "Ziggy Stardust" edits out the final guitar notes. The track listed as "Fashion (single version)" is not in fact the original single edit and has been incorrectly re-edited. The versions of "Under Pressure", "Dancing in the Street" and "Buddha of Suburbia" are the original single versions but are not listed as such.[5] "Silly Boy Blue", track 18 on disc 3, is incorrectly listed as being from David Bowie (1969) but is actually from his previous self-titled album, David Bowie (1967). Pegg further notes that Bowie's Tin Machine period is completely absent from the compilation, his Berlin Trilogy is only represented by one track per album, and there is a huge absence of live recordings.[6]

Release

[edit]

Nothing Has Changed was released on 18 November 2014 through Parlophone in the United Kingdom, and Columbia Records and Legacy Recordings in the United States. The album was released in four formats: a triple CD version (sequenced in reverse chronological order), a double CD version (sequenced in chronological order), a double LP version,[7] and a single CD version released exclusive to select countries.[8][9]

The album's multiple cover artworks were designed by Jonathan Barnbrook, who previously designed the artworks for Heathen (2002), Reality (2003) and The Next Day (2013), and would do the same for Blackstar (2016).[10] Each format received a different image, all selected from shots of Bowie taken throughout his life depicting him studying himself in a mirror.[6]

A revised version of the two-disc Nothing Has Changed, re-titled Bowie Legacy, was released on 11 November 2016[11][12] and includes selections from Blackstar.[n 1]

Commercial performance

[edit]

Nothing Has Changed entered the official UK Albums Chart at number nine upon its release, becoming Bowie's 29th UK Top 10 album,[13] although it quickly fell out of the Top 30.[14] Despite having four more separate successive runs in the Top 100 during 2015, it never got any higher than number 40.[14]

On 15 January 2016, the album re-entered the chart at a new peak of number five, after the news of Bowie's death earlier that week.[15] Two weeks later, Nothing Has Changed remained at number five on 29 January, in a week which saw four other Bowie albums in the top 10, making him the first artist to achieve five simultaneous UK top 10 albums since Michael Jackson, who achieved six in July 2009 after his own death,[16] and a total of twelve in the top 40. This meant he equalled the record set by Elvis Presley after his death in 1977.[16] Nothing Has Changed also gained new peaks worldwide in countries where it had never made the top 10, rising to number one in New Zealand (where it spent four weeks), number three in Australia, number four in Austria and Germany, and number five in Switzerland. It also rose into the top 10 in Belgium, Hungary, Italy and the Netherlands.

Nothing Has Changed, particularly the three-disc version, received critical acclaim. Critics gave unanimous praise to its reverse chronological sequencing. Writing for AllMusic, Stephen Thomas Erlewine stated, "it's a sly way to revisit and recontextualise a career that has been compiled many, many times before."[18] Evan Sawdey of PopMatters agreed, writing that the sequencing of the three-disc version creates "a fascinating aural experience", giving the listener a sense of Bowie's "out-there weirdness" early on, as well as a taste of the artist's influences.[25] Similarly, Cody Ray Shafer of Under the Radar praised the sequencing of the three-disc version, finding that this allows the listener to appreciate the artist in an entirely different way. Shafer further praised the new track "Sue", writing that it is "remarkably unlike anything he's ever done before."[23]

Many have considered the three-disc version one of Bowie's finest compilations, including Erlewine, who praised it as "[an album] that makes us hear an artist we know well in a whole new way."[18] Andrzej Lukowski of Drowned in Sound further called it, "a monument to an extraordinary 50-year-career" and "a statement of self-belief in Bowie's post-superstardom work that surely stands as the most pugnacious best of ever released by an artist of his stature."[20] Similarly, Sawday called Nothing Has Changed "a thrilling go-to for the semi-casual Thin White Duke observer, and is about as damn close to perfect as a Bowie anthology can get."[25] Hal Horowitz of American Songwriter found the three-disc version to be the best way for a new or unfamiliar listener to start with the artist, as well as for established listeners to catch up on his most recent period with The Next Day.[27] A writer for Classic Rock magazine found the collection to be "a great way of refreshing an often overly familiar catalogue."[26] Douglas Wolk of Pitchfork felt out of all the released formats, the three-disc version was the "jewel". He criticised the two-disc version as a slight revision of 2002's Best of Bowie, further stating "it...misses most of what's magical about this particular artist;" he considered the double LP version an improvement.[21]

Despite its acclaim, the collection was criticised for the exclusion of tracks Bowie recorded with the rock band Tin Machine.[18] Regarding the exclusion, Holowitz stated, "It's a logical omission but still a segment of his oeuvre that deserves at least a nod."[27] Lukowski felt that the absence of Tin Machine was the collection's "only real fault",[20] while Wolk agreed that the exclusion was a weak point. Wolk was further disappointed with the absence of tracks such as "Suffragette City", "DJ" and "John, I'm Only Dancing".[21] Some reviewers agreed that certain eras of Bowie's career, including the Berlin Trilogy, were under-represented.[18] Sawdey noted the absence of more Berlin tracks a disappointment, especially when compared to including rarities from the unreleased Toy project.[25] Erlewine also felt the Ziggy Stardust years were under-represented.[18] Both Wolk and Horowitz also criticised the inclusion of the collaboration "Dancing in the Street".[21][27] Some reviewers found the collection's title ironic, as throughout Bowie's long career, everything changed.[25][27]

Nothing Has Changed

View on Grokipedia
from Grokipedia
Nothing Has Changed (stylized as Nothing has changed.) is a career-spanning by English musician , released on 17 November 2014 by in the and on 18 November 2014 by and in the United States. It collects tracks from across Bowie's five-decade recording career, from his 1964 debut single to material from his 2013 album , making it the first compilation to cover his entire discography. The album was available in multiple formats, including a single-CD edition with 16 tracks in chronological order, a two-CD version expanding to 23 selections, a double-LP vinyl set with 20 tracks in non-chronological order, and a three-CD deluxe edition featuring 59 tracks arranged in reverse chronological order. The deluxe edition notably includes a newly recorded track, "Sue (Or In a Season of Crime)", featuring the Maria Schneider Orchestra, as its opening song, along with previously unreleased recordings from Bowie's shelved 2001 album . While emphasizing hit singles like "," "Changes," "Fame," and "Let's Dance," the collection also incorporates deeper cuts and remixes, such as the 2008 "MM" remix of "Time Will Crawl," but omits some fan favorites including "D.J.," "," and material from his band era. Bowie personally curated the tracklist, which draws its title from the lyric "nothing has changed" in his 2002 song "Sunday" from the album Heathen. The release coincided with the 50th anniversary of his first single and served as a retrospective ahead of his then-upcoming album Blackstar. Critically, the deluxe edition received praise for reframing Bowie's evolution from glam rock innovator to experimental artist, with reviewers highlighting its value as a comprehensive entry point for newcomers despite some omissions in the standard editions. The album debuted at number 9 on the UK Albums Chart and number 57 on the US Billboard 200, achieving gold certification in several countries.

Background

Development and announcement

In 2014, decided to compile a career-spanning titled Nothing Has Changed, marking his return to public creative output following a decade-long hiatus after a heart attack in 2004 that limited his touring and visibility until the 2013 release of . The project aimed to bridge his early recordings with contemporary material, providing a "definitive" overview of his solo work from 1964 to 2014 while intentionally excluding the era to emphasize individual highlights. The compilation was announced on September 9, 2014, through Bowie's official website, coinciding with the reveal of the "Sue (Or in a Season of Crime)," a newly recorded track produced by longtime collaborator . This announcement celebrated Bowie's 50th year in music and introduced rare inclusions, such as tracks curated from the unreleased 2000 album , including "Let Me Sleep Beside You." Visconti's involvement extended beyond production of the new single, as he assisted in selecting and remixing archival to fit the retrospective's chronological scope, ensuring a cohesive of Bowie's evolution without delving into band projects like .

Concept and track selection process

The concept behind Nothing Has Changed centered on presenting David Bowie's 50-year career in reverse chronological order, beginning with from 2014 and tracing backward to his 1964 debut single, to reframe his artistic evolution through a novel that highlighted continuity amid transformation. This approach, applied to the deluxe three-disc edition, aimed to juxtapose recent works with foundational ones, underscoring Bowie's enduring innovation without adhering to traditional forward progression. Track selection emphasized hit singles and fan favorites to ensure broad accessibility, while incorporating select rarities and unreleased recordings for depth, resulting in a curated overview rather than an exhaustive anthology. Deliberate omissions, such as the entire Tin Machine period and deeper cuts from the Berlin Trilogy albums (Low, Heroes, and Lodger), streamlined the collection for mainstream appeal, limiting the latter to just three tracks despite their critical significance. The 59 tracks in the deluxe edition achieved balance across eras, with the third disc allocating 21 selections to Bowie's formative years from 1964 to 1975, including pre- demos and singles like "" alongside early breakthroughs. This was complemented by iconic staples such as "" and "Ziggy Stardust," major 1980s and 1990s hits like "Let's Dance" and "Under Pressure," and 2000s contributions from Heathen and , including the title-inspiring "." Alternate mixes were included to reflect interpretive shifts, such as the 2010 remix of "Wild Is the Wind" and the original 1972 single version of "." The set opens with the new recording "Sue (Or in a Season of Crime)" as a contemporary capstone.

New and exclusive recordings

The compilation Nothing Has Changed features one entirely new original recording, the "Sue (Or in a Season of Crime)", marking David Bowie's first new material since his 2013 The Next Day. This jazz-influenced track, co-written by Bowie with Paul Bateman, Bob Bhamra, and Maria Schneider, explores themes of mortality and desperation through a narrative of a man confronting his end, possibly amid urban chaos evocative of American societal undercurrents. Clocking in at 7:25 for the full album version, it was produced by Bowie and longtime collaborator , emphasizing a live ensemble sound with prominent and orchestral horns. The recording of "Sue (Or in a Season of Crime)" took place in , with initial workshops in June 2014 followed by the full orchestral session on July 24, 2014, at Avatar Studios, involving the Maria Schneider Orchestra for its layered brass and woodwind arrangements. Key personnel included Bowie on vocals, Schneider as arranger and conductor, on soprano and , and a ensemble of flutists, clarinetists, saxophonists, trumpeters, trombonists, guitarist , pianist Frank Kimbrough, bassist Jay Anderson, and drummer , creating a dense, improvisational texture that foreshadowed Bowie's later explorations. A radio edit shortened to approximately 4:38 was also prepared for promotional use, highlighting the track's brooding intensity without the extended instrumental passages. In addition to "Sue", the three-disc edition resurrects three previously unreleased tracks from Bowie's shelved album (recorded in 2000), offering a reimagined take on his early Decca material through mature, energetic arrangements that pose a "what if" scenario for his youthful compositions. These include "Let Me Sleep Beside You" (3:12), a soulful plea reworked from his 1967 song; "Shadow Man" (4:45), an introspective piece addressing loss; and "Your Turn to Drive" (4:54), a driving, upbeat track blending pop and . The Toy sessions, held in July 2000 at studios including Sear Sound and The Looking Glass in New York, were produced by Bowie and , capturing a live band energy with guitars, bass, drums, and occasional horns to revitalize the older demos. For Nothing Has Changed, these selections were remixed to integrate seamlessly with the compilation's reverse-chronological flow, highlighting Bowie's ongoing dialogue with his past catalog.

Chronological and thematic arrangement

The deluxe edition of Nothing Has Changed is structured across three discs in reverse chronological order, forming a "future to past" arc that traces David Bowie's evolution from his most recent work back to his origins. Disc 1 encompasses recordings from to 1993, featuring contemporary tracks alongside mid-1990s material; Disc 2 spans 1992 to 1975, bridging the late hits with the soul-infused ; and Disc 3 covers 1974 to 1964, delving into the zenith and pre-fame era. This 59-track configuration allows for a comprehensive , differing markedly from the two-disc edition's 21-track chronological selection of major hits. Thematically, the arrangement underscores Bowie's lifelong reinvention, juxtaposing stylistic shifts—such as the transition from glam rock's theatricality to electronica's introspection—to illustrate his adaptability across decades. Mortality emerges as a recurring motif in the later tracks on Disc 1, which resonate with earlier alienation themes on Disc 3, creating a narrative thread of existential reflection that ties Bowie's avant-garde experiments to his pop innovations. Tracks from the unreleased Toy album are briefly integrated into the early sections, offering reimagined 1960s compositions that reinforce this continuity. This sequencing rationale deliberately eschews a conventional hits-only approach, incorporating B-sides and alternate takes like a demo of "" to spotlight underappreciated phases of Bowie's career, from obscure singles to deep cuts. In contrast, the vinyl edition prioritizes the 1970s core with thematic groupings—dancefloor fillers on one side, glam spaceman personas on another, and introspective outliers—providing a curated emotional journey rather than strict chronology.

Critics have noted the compilation's emphasis on mortality themes—evident in tracks like the new recording "Sue (Or in a Season of Crime)"—as acquiring deeper resonance in hindsight, positioning the collection as an unwitting farewell to his oeuvre.

Academic and cultural commentaries have framed Nothing Has Changed as a capstone to Bowie's career, encapsulating five decades of reinvention. Fan discussions on dedicated sites like Bowie Wonderworld have similarly stressed the redemptive value of including three tracks from the previously shelved 2000 album Toy ("Let Me Sleep Beside You," "Your Turn to Drive," and "Shadow Man"), which rescued overlooked material from obscurity and enriched the retrospective narrative.
