Maggie Rogers Night Changes

One of the biggest stories of the past fortnight was the unfortunate passing of One Direction member Liam Payne, who passed away aged 31 in Argentina. Among the tributes that have been shared across the music world, Maggie Rogers chose to honour Payne’s memory by performing the One Direction song “Night Changes” at her show at the TD Garden in Boston.

Just her voice and the piano echo throughout the space, underscoring the tone of change present in the song into one of extreme sadness. There’s a murmur of shock in the crowd once they realize which song it is, until they softly start to join in. A cathartic moment to the power of music and those who make it.
