"Changed the Way You Kiss Me" is a song by British recording artist Example from his third studio album, Playing in the Shadows. It was released on 5 June 2011 as the album's lead single, after it had premiered on BBC Radio 1 as Zane Lowe's 'Hottest Record in the World' on 24 March 2011. The song was written by Example with Michael Woods, who also produced it.[1] An official remix featuring American rapper Ludacris was made available to mainstream radio in the United States on 1 May 2012.[2]

The song debuted at number-one on the UK Singles Chart, selling over 115,000 copies. With 582,000 copies sold in 2011 alone, the track finished as the year's seventeenth biggest seller and in January 2012 was nominated at the 2012 BRIT Awards.

Critical reception

Lewis Corner of Digital Spy gave the song a positive review stating:

In a chart climate dominated with emotional balladry from Adele one minute and thumping feel-good club-pop from LMFAO the song runs through trance beats with eurodance elements the next, an artist can be forgiven for feeling a little confused about where the current music scene is headed and thus how to create a bona-fide hit that will send them straight to the top. That said, Fulham-born Example may just have the answer with this trailer from his forthcoming LP. 4/5 stars.[3]
