"Here It Comes" is a song and 1972 single by the English band Strawbs. It did not appear on any of their studio albums, but it was included on two compilation albums: Strawbs by Choice (1974) and Halcyon Days (1997). Written by bandleader Dave Cousins, "Here It Comes" shows definite pop influences and a more commercial view to song-writing, a trait that would extend to the next single, "Lay Down".

The song was recorded, in middle of the band's early 1972 tour, at Morgan Studios in Willesden, north-west London.{{Cite web|url=https://www.strawbsweb.co.uk/albtrack/halcuk/halcukre.asp|title=STRAWBS ALBUMS|website=www.strawbsweb.co.uk}}

Reviewing the song in 2021, for Louder the War, Ian Canty said: "For me The Strawbs are seldom heard better than on the intoxicating groove of "Here It Comes", a fine amalgam of Bo Diddley beat and "Magic Bus" with added warm organ sounds and crashing guitar breaks."{{Cite web|url=https://louderthanwar.com/various-beyond-the-pale-horizon-album-review/|title=Various: Beyond The Pale Horizon - album review|first=Ian|last=Canty|date=May 25, 2021}}
