On May 28, 2020, Britney Spears' Glory album was reissued on digital platforms and with it, Mood Ring (by Demand) was made available internationally. Previously, it had only been released as a Japanese bonus track. On May 08, after the #JusticeforGlory campaign that took Britney's ninth album to the top of the pop iTunes chart, a new cover was released to replace the original shot taken from the Make Me... video, only for the standard edition of the record. But it wasn't until the 28th when it was announced through Britney's social media accounts that Mood Ring (by Demand) would be released globally. It was in fact added to the standard edition of the album, as track #13. Mood Ring topped the iTunes chart during the weekend following its release, despite Lady Gaga's latest album Chromatica being released on the same day. Despite Mood Ring landing at #2 on the US Billboard's Digital Song Sales chart, it only peaked at #23 on the Bubbling Under Hot 100 chart. However, it did chart in other countries such as Hungary and Scotland. Billboard reportedly heard from Britney herself: On the same link, you can find an interview with Melanie Fontana and Jon Asher, songwriters of the track @Jordan Miller himself got us an AMA with Jon Asher, which you can find here: Melanie Fontana shared the demo of the song to celebrate the release: Melanie recently spoke about Britney last March, check it out: Mood Ring, which was originally recorded in 2015, would get a digital Remix EP release later in June, making it a sort of third single off Glory, though the status is still disputed among fans. But we'll celebrate that release later. This reissue of Glory would also get replaced later in the year, when in December, we got the definitive edition of the album (so far) including all the known tracks, plus the Mood Ring remixes, and the two previously unreleased songs Swimming in the Stars and Matches ft. Backstreet Boys. The day Britney recorded Mood Ring.
