Yungblud has released a version of "Changes" recorded live at Black Sabbath’s farewell concert, ‘Back to the Beginning’, at Villa Park on Saturday 5 July.

Speaking about the single, Yungblud said, “This was hands down the biggest moment of my entire life. I got to stand on stage and honour one of my heroes, and the fact that it has touched so many is truly overwhelming.”

“The best part about this release is that we can take such a monumental moment, immortalise it on tape, release it and donate all the money to such important causes in Cure Parkinson's, Birmingham Children’s Hospital, and Acorns Children’s Hospice. This is what Rock and roll is about. Stream it, buy it, add it to your playlist – let's raise some f*cking money.”

Yungblud’s performance on the single received the seal of approval from Ozzy Osbourne, who said, “He did an amazing job. I couldn’t have done it better myself.”

‘Back to the Beginning’ featured performances by Guns N’ Roses, Slayer, Metallica, Pantera, and more. The likes of The Smashing Pumpkins’ Billy Corgan and Aerosmith’s Steven Tyler also made guest appearances, whilst Tom Morello of Rage Against the Machine oversaw the event as its Musical Director.

Mercury Studios announced that Back to the Beginning: Ozzy’s Final Bow will see its theatrical debut in early 2026. The feature-length concert film is currently in production and will celebrate the enduring legacy of Black Sabbath and Ozzy Osbourne.

"Changes - (Live from Villa Park) Back to the Beginning (feat. Nuno Bettencourt, ii, Frank Bello, Adam Wakeman)" is out now via Capitol/ Locomotion/ Island.
