The 2013 film 20 Feet From Stardom recounts Hill's rise to prominence as a backup singer for Michael Jackson, who selected her to perform with him as a duet in his posthumously cancelled This is It Tour, and Josh Groban, who would later bring Judith on tour as a supporting act.
Hill was selected by Adam Levine on Season 4 of the musical talent show The Voice and supported John Legend on his #AllOfMe Tour, before recording her first studio album, Back in Time. The album was produced by Prince at his Paisley Park Studios.
Feeling Good
Judith Hill Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Sun in the sky you know how I feel
Breeze driftin' on by you know how I feel
It's a new dawn
It's a new day
It's a new life
For me
Dragonfly out in the sun you know what I mean, don't you know
Butterflies all havin' fun you know what I mean
Sleep in peace when day is done
That's what I mean
It's a new dawn
It's a new day
It's a new life
For me
And I'm feeling good
And I'm feeling right
And I'm feeling so good
Freedom is mine
Freedom is mine....
I'm feeling good
I'm feeling good
