“I’ll Change for You” by Emily Flake
Following the “indie-rock anthem” (Billboard) “Where’s My Phone?,” “I’ll Change for You” is nostalgic and mid-tempo as Mitski’s gorgeous vocal range is backed by a rich accompaniment of a string section, drums and percussion, pianos, guitar, flute, and vibraphone. With desperation, she sings: “‘Cause I’ll do anything // For you to love me again // If you don’t like me now // I will change for you.”
“I’ll Change for You” Video Still
Nothing’s About to Happen to Me finds Mitski immersing herself in a rich narrative whose main character is a reclusive woman in an unkempt house. Outside of her home, she is a deviant; inside of her home, she is free. Directed by Lexie Alleyand edited by Rena Johnson, the “I’ll Change for You” video builds upon this world, zeroing in on the chaotic, untidy Tansy House universe presented in the album’s photos by Alley. Printed frame by frame onto film with hand-drawn marks and subtle unsettling distortions, the footage feels like a roll of film that could be found in the Tansy House: fragile, dilapidated, and probably buried under a pile of books.

Mitski wrote all of the songs and performed all of the vocals on Nothing’s About to Happen to Me. Produced and engineered by Patrick Hyland and mastered by Bob Weston, the album continues the musical through line established with 2023’s The Land Is Inhospitable and So Are We, and features live instrumentation by The Land touring band and ensemble arrangements. The orchestra was recorded at Sunset Sound and TTG Studios, arranged and conducted by Drew Erickson, engineered by Michael Harris.
