Here’s a new tune with an old-school flavor, reminiscent of the late Michael Jackson, sung by The Weeknd, a multi -talented Canadian who’s latest song, “I Feel It Coming” has echos of the King of Pop, a comparison that’s been made before.
“I Feel It Coming” which is #12 on this week’s Top 40 chart, is from The Weeknd’s current album, Starboy, which, when it was released last month, set a new one day Spotify record, with over 40 million streams. It was one of the biggest hits of 2016, and now, with the release of “I Feel It Coming” the album has shot back up to number one again.
Helping to push the mellow sound of “I Feel It Coming” is French duo and musical collaborators Daft Punk.
Numerous hits from Michael Jackson’s oeuvre could be connected to The Weeknds current single, among them, “The Girl
Is Mine,” his 1982 duet with Paul McCartney.
