John Legend continued with the upbeat mood with his performance at the "Celebrating America" concert as Inauguration Day wrapped up on Wednesday (Jan. 20).
The 11-time Grammy winner celebrated President Joe Biden and Vice President Kamala Harris' inauguration by singing "Feeling Good," which was made popular by Nina Simone in 1965, performing in front of the steps of the Lincoln Memorial in Washington, D.C. Like Simone, Legend kicked off the song by letting his vocals shine alone. When the band kicked in, he sat down at the grand piano to continue his powerful performance.
"It's a new dawn/ It's a new day/ It's a new life/ For me/ And I'm feeling good/ I'm feeling good," Legend belted out, the lyrics reflecting the fresh beginning and feelings of hope as the Biden-Harris administration takes office.
