Changing of the Seasons is a song by the Irish indie rock band Two Door Cinema Club. The song is the lead single and title track from the band's 2013 extended play (EP) of the same name, Changing of the Seasons. "Changing of the Seasons" was the band's first new single since they departed their previous label, Kitsuné, and signed with Parlophone Records.

"Changing of the Seasons", the 2013 EP's title track, was first conceived during the writing sessions for the band's 2012 album, Beacon. According to Kevin Baird, Two Door Cinema Club's bassist, who spoke about the single's development to Rolling Stone, "We were making the record and we just had bits left over that we didn't really have time for. So it's sort of a continuation from that and we were just sort of on a roll writing music.

The band recruited Madeon, the French DJ and dance music artist, to produce the single. Madeon and the band had known each other prior to their collaboration on "Changing of the Season." Baird explained, "We brought in a friend, someone who brings a very unique sonic quality."Rolling Stone wrote that Madeon added a "dancey vibe to the tune."

The band's guitarist, Sam Halliday, stated that their work with Madeon on the single was likely a one time collaboration, due to Madeon's busy work schedule, "It was kind of a song that we wanted to explore and from that we're writing other songs...[But] at this point he's only in the one. He's too busy."

Two Door Cinema Club debuted their new "Changing of the Seasons" single on August 15, 2013, during an appearance on BBC Radio 1.

The three track EP of the same name was released on September 30, 2013, with "Changing of the Seasons" as its title track and lead single. The single was also included on the 2013 reissue of Two Door Cinema Club's second studio album, Beacon.
