"I Feel It Coming" is a song by the Canadian singer-songwriter the Weeknd from his third studio album, Starboy (2016), featuring the French duo Daft Punk. The three wrote and produced the song with Doc McKinney and Cirkut, with additional writing from Eric Chedeville. XO and Republic Records released the track for digital download on November 17, 2016, as the album's third single. Written in an hour and conceived during sessions in Paris and Los Angeles, "I Feel It Coming" is a disco-pop and funk track where the Weeknd convinces a woman to not be scared of falling in love again.
Music critics compared the Weeknd's vocals to Michael Jackson's. It was included on multiple year-end rankings of the best songs of 2016, and won the 2018 BMI R&B/Hip Hop Song of the Year. The song reached the top of the music charts in France, and peaked within the top five in twelve countries. In the United States, it reached number 4 on the Billboard Hot 100, spent 26 weeks on the chart, and received a 6× platinum certification by the Recording Industry Association of America (RIAA).
Warren Fu directed the music video for "I Feel It Coming" in one day at a Los Angeles soundstage. The video features a couple, played by the Weeknd and Kiko Mizuhara, dancing together on a desert planet until they are turned into stone. The Weeknd has performed the song on three of his concert tours: the Starboy: Legend of the Fall Tour (2017), his Asia Tour (2018), and the After Hours til Dawn Tour (2022–2024).
