Christina Aguilera took to social media Wednesday to share a spring sing from her backyard of Nina Simone's Feeling Good.

The 39-year-old singing superstar posted a video for her roughly 6.8 million followers on Instagram of herself performing at home amid the coronavirus pandemic.

The uplifting clip opened with a view of Aguilera's backyard with soft filtered sunlight showing a tall tree with brown trunk amid green foliage as birds chirped in the background.

"Birds flying high, you know how I feel," Christina started singing a cappella while sitting on steps wearing a silky white top with black print.

Christina Aguilera unleashed her speaker-checking vocals while belting out, "It's a new dawn, It's a new day, It's a new life, For me."

She riffed effortlessly before finishing the chorus, "And I'm feeling good, I'm feeling good."

Feeling Good was written by English composers Anthony Newley and Leslie Bricusse and was first performed on stage in 1964. Simone recorded Feeling Good for her 1965 album I Put A Spell On You. North Carolina native and civil rights activist Simone died in April 2003 at age 70 in France.

Aguilera last month participated in the star-studded Disney Family Singalong that also featured Ariana Grande, 26, and a surprise performance by Beyonce, 39.

The ABC program was hosted by Ryan Seacrest, 45, and featured stars who filmed themselves at home due to the coronavirus pandemic.

The childhood Disney star sang the Disney song Can You Feel The Love Tonight from The Lion King.
