In addition to selected post-1976 singles, the album collected five songs from earlier in Bowie's career that had not appeared on Changesonebowie, including "Wild Is the Wind" from Station to Station, which was released as a single to promote the album, along with a newly filmed video for the track.[6] However, the album did not repeat the chart success of the earlier compilation, reaching No. 24[7] on the UK Album Chart and No. 68 in the United States.
RCA reissued the album on CD in 1984, but it was soon deleted, along with Bowie's other albums, owing to a conflict between Bowie and RCA. Changestwobowie was not reissued when Rykodisc obtained the rights to re-release the Bowie catalog in 1990; Rykodisc assembled a new compilation, Changesbowie, an expanded version of RCA's Changesonebowie, instead.
Changestwobowie was reissued in its original form by Rhino, on vinyl, CD, and digital/streaming formats, on 13 April 2018.[8]

ChangesTwoBowie, lanzado en 1981, es un álbum recopilatorio del músico y compositor británico David Bowie lanzado por RCA Records. Tanto el título como la presentación del álbum siguen el estilo de la primera recopilación de Bowie lanzada por RCA, ChangesOneBowie de 1976. Además de sencillos posteriores a 1976, el álbum contiene canciones de la carrera inicial de Bowie que no aparecen en ChangesOne. No obstante, no repitió los éxitos de venta de la primera recopilación, llegando al puesto número 27 en el Reino Unido y al número 68 en las listas estadounidenses.[ru] ChangesTwoBowie
ChangesTwoBowie — первый сборник суперхитов Дэвида Боуи изданный в 1981 году на лейбле RCA Records. Его название и упаковка эстетически повторяет формат предыдущей компиляции - ChangesOneBowie 1976 года (изданной на том же лейбле). Кроме синглов вышедших позднее 1976 года, на диске собраны песни из ранней карьеры Боуи, которые не попали на ChangesOneBowie. Тем не менее, сборник не смог повторить успех своего предшественника, достигнув лишь 27 строчки в британском чарте и #68 в американском хит-параде. Какое-то время альбом был доступен в формате компакт-диска в 1985 году, вскоре был удален из каталога RCA Records, вместе с большинством других альбомов Боуи, из-за конфликта между музыкантом и лейблом. Из-за низких продаж сборник так и не был переиздан, когда лейбл Rykodisc получил права на переиздание дискографии Боуи на CD в 1990 году.Другой контент может иметь иную лицензию.
