It was first performed on stage in 1964 by [[Cy Grant]] on the UK tour.<ref name=Originals>{{citation |url=http://www.originals.be/en/originals/1789 |title=The Originals |contribution=Feeling Good |access-date=11 April 2013 |place=Belgium}}</ref>

[[Nina Simone]] recorded "Feeling Good" for her 1965 album ''[[I Put a Spell on You (album)|I Put a Spell on You]]''. The song has also been [[Cover version|cover]]ed by [[Sammy Davis Jr.]], [[Traffic (band)|Traffic]], [[Michael Bublé]], [[John Coltrane]], [[Brian Stokes Mitchell]], [[George Michael]], Victory, [[Eels (band)|Eels]], [[Joe Bonamassa]], [[Eden (Irish musician)|Eden]], [[Muse (band)|Muse]], [[Black Cat Bones]], [[Bassnectar]], [[Sophie B.

==Early performances and recordings==
Although Bricusse and Newley shared songwriting credits, the words of the song are usually attributed to Bricusse, with the music by Newley.<ref name=harris>[http://users.bestweb.net/~foosie/gpaint.htm Judy Harris, ''The Roar of the Greasepaint – The Smell of the Crowd''] {{Webarchive|url=https://web.archive.org/web/20200208192341/http://users.bestweb.net/~foosie/gpaint.htm |date=8 February 2020 }}. Retrieved 6 January 2014.</ref> The song was first performed in public by [[Guyanese people|Guyanese]]-British singer and actor [[Cy Grant]] on the opening night of ''The Roar of the Greasepaint – The Smell of the Crowd'' at the [[Theatre Royal, Nottingham|Theatre Royal]] in [[Nottingham]] on 3 August 1964. The show, directed by Newley, toured British provincial theatres, and was then taken to the US by theatre producer [[David Merrick]].  It opened on 16 May 1965 at the [[Shubert Theatre (Broadway)|Shubert Theatre]] in New York City, where the role of "the Negro", who sings "Feeling Good", was taken by [[Gilbert Price]].<ref name=Guide>{{citation |url=http://www.guidetomusicaltheatre.com/shows_r/roar_greasepaint.htm |title=The Guide to Musical Theatre |contribution=The Roar of the Greasepaint & the Smell of the Crowd |access-date=11 April 2013}}</ref>

In the show, Price's character is asked to compete against the show's hero "Cocky"; but, as "Cocky" and his master "Sir" argue over the rules of the game, "the Negro" reaches the centre of the stage and "wins", singing the song at his moment of triumph.<ref name=harris/> It was described as a "booming song of emancipation",<ref>Stanley Green, [https://books.google.com/books?id=ZWIRAljCR7oC&dq=%22feeling+good%22+%22gilbert+price%22&pg=PA120 ''Encyclopedia of the Musical Theatre''], Da Capo Press, 2009, p. 120.</ref> and a ''[[Billboard (magazine)|Billboard]]'' review said it was "the kind of robust number that should have strong appeal".<ref>Cameron Dewar, [https://books.google.com/books?id=ligEAAAAMBAJ&dq=%22feeling+good%22+%22gilbert+price%22&pg=PA12 "'Greasepaint' Has What It Takes - And Maybe More"], ''Billboard'', 10 April 1965, p. 12.</ref> The [[Cast album|original cast recording]] of the show, featuring Price's version of the song, was released by [[RCA Victor]] in early 1965, before the show reached New York.

[[Nina Simone]]'s version, arranged and produced by [[Hal Mooney]], was recorded in New York in January 1965 and appeared on her album ''[[I Put a Spell on You (album)|I Put a Spell on You]]''. It was not released as a single at the time. In 1994, Simone's recording was used in a British [[TV commercial]] for [[Volkswagen]], and became popular. Released as a single, it reached No. 40 on the [[UK Singles Chart]] in July 1994.<ref name="betts">{{cite book |last=Betts |first=Graham |title=Complete UK Hit Singles 1952-2005 |publisher=Collins |location=London |edition=1st |year=2005 |page=725 |isbn=0-00-720076-5}}</ref>

Simone's version was remixed by Joe Claussell in 2002 for the first volume of the [[Verve Remixed]] series.<ref>{{Cite web|url=https://natlib.govt.nz/records/22117497?search%5Bpath%5D=items&search%5Btext%5D=Thievery+Corporation+%28Musical+group%29|title=Verve remixed &#91;sound recording&#93;|date=January 2002}}</ref>

The vocal track by Nina Simone and the music of "Feeling Good" have been sampled in numerous songs. In 1997, it was sampled in "Feeling Good" by Huff & Herb.<ref>{{citation |url=http://www.discogs.com/search?q=nina+simone+feelin+good&type=all&btn=Search |title=Disco GS |contribution=Nina Simone, Feelin' good |type=search}}</ref> Other uses include "How I Feel" by [[Wax Tailor]], from the 2005 album ''Tales of the Forgotten Melodies''; "New Day" from the debut collaborative studio album ''[[Watch the Throne]]'' by American rappers [[Jay-Z]] and [[Kanye West]] in 2011; "[[How I Feel (Flo Rida song)|How I Feel]]" by [[Flo Rida]], from the 2013 album ''[[The Perfect 10]]''; and, also in 2013, in the beginning of [[Bassnectar]]'s ''Immersive Music Mixtape Side One''.<ref>[https://soundcloud.com/bassnectar/bassnectar-immersive-music-1 "Bassnectar - Immersive Music Mixtape - Side One"], Soundcloud.</ref>

The track "About You" on [[Mary J. Blige]]'s 2005 album ''The Breakthrough'' features an unusual take on the song. The bulk of the recording consists of new lyrics, composed by Mary J. Blige, [[will.i.am]] and Keith Harris; however, the chorus samples several lines from "Feeling Good" as performed by Nina Simone. Simone's original vocals are distorted so much that her voice is almost unrecognisable; for this reason, Simone receives a credit as a featured artist, and Newley and Bricusse receive credit as co-writers. "About You" is produced by will.i.am. The original instrumental track to Nina Simone's "Feeling Good" was also used in the Swedish musician [[Avicii]]'s song of the same name, used by [[Volvo]].

Simone's recording was used in the film ''[[Point of No Return (1993 film)|Point of No Return]]''<ref name="Loftus">{{cite web |last1=Loftus |first1=Johnny |title=Point of No Return – Hans Zimmer |url=https://www.allmusic.com/album/point-of-no-return-mw0000095001 |website=AllMusic |access-date=2 June 2017}}</ref> and appears on soundtracks for the movies ''[[Repo Men]]'' (2010),<ref name="Repo">{{cite web |title=Repo Men – Original Soundtrack |url=https://www.allmusic.com/album/repo-men-mw0001969237 |website=AllMusic |access-date=2 June 2017}}</ref> ''[[Last Holiday (2006 film)|Last Holiday]]'' (2006),<ref name="Last">{{cite web |title=Last Holiday – Original Soundtrack |url=https://www.allmusic.com/album/last-holiday-mw0000442926 |website=AllMusic |access-date=2 June 2017}}</ref> ''[[Professor Marston and the Wonder Women]]'' (2017),<ref>{{cite web |url=https://www.imdb.com/title/tt6133130/soundtrack |title=Professor Marston and the Wonder Women (2017) |access-date=4 August 2018 |website=IMDb.com}}</ref>

American [[girl group]] [[the Pussycat Dolls]] recorded "Feeling Good" for their debut studio album, ''[[PCD (album)|PCD]]'' (2005). The song was sung entirely by the Dolls' lead singer, [[Nicole Scherzinger]].

==== Reception ====
The Pussycat Dolls' version of "Feelin’ Good" received mixed reviews from critics. Nick Butler of Sputnikmusic wrote that the song's inclusion on the album serves as "a pretty pointless vocal workout for Nicole".<ref name="Sputnikmusic">{{cite web |url=https://www.sputnikmusic.com/review/10755/Pussycat-Dolls-PCD/ |title=Review: Pussycat Dolls – PCD |work=Sputnikmusic |first=Nick |last=Butler |access-date=1 August 2013}}</ref> John Murphy from [[musicOMH]] gave a negative review, writing: "All the emotion and melodrama of the original is ripped out of the heart of the song and we're left with a pointless, faux-jazz version.
