An accompanying music video for "Time for Change", directed by Vaughan Arnell, was released on 22 November 2019.[1] Williams performed "Time for Change" at his pair of concerts dubbed "The Robbie Williams Christmas Party" at the SSE Arena on 16 and 17 December 2019 in promotion of the album.[2]

Jordan Bassett of NME praised the song and drew similarities to Williams' hit song "Strong", writing: "His longtime collaborator and co-producer Guy Chambers has brought a great deal of warmth to this collection – newbie ‘Time For A Change’ comes on like ‘Strong’ with bells and whistles on."[4]
