'Don't Worry, Be Happy' is a popular worldwide hit song by American musician Bobby McFerrin. Released in September 1988, it became the first a cappella song to reach number one on the Billboard Hot 100 chart, a position it held for two weeks.

Background[edit]

Meher Baba, who often used the phrase 'Don't worry, be happy'

The Indian mystic and sage Meher Baba (1894–1969) often used the expression 'Don't worry, be happy' when cabling his followers in the West.[3]

In the 1960s, the expression was printed up on inspirational cards and posters of the era. In 1988, McFerrin noticed a similar poster in the apartment of the jazz duo Tuck & Patti in San Francisco.[citation needed] Inspired by the expression's charm and simplicity, McFerrin wrote the now famous song, which was included in the soundtrack of the movie Cocktail, and became a hit single the next year. McFerrin explained his inspiration at the time:

'Whenever you see a poster of Meher Baba, it usually says 'Don't worry, be happy,' which is a pretty neat philosophy in four words, I think.'[4]

Linda Goldstein, the song's producer, said the song gave McFerrin 'the freedom to explore':

'He is a man of infinite, unfathomable, boundless voices and everything he has ever heard has gone into his brain, from the Mickey Mouse Club theme to the Metropolitan Opera.'[5]

Composition[edit]

The 'instruments' in the a cappella song are entirely overdubbed voice parts and other sounds made by McFerrin, using no instruments at all; McFerrin also sings with an affected accent.[6]

Music video[edit]

The comedic original music video for the song stars McFerrin, Robin Williams, and Bill Irwin,[7] and is somewhat shorter than the album version.

Chart performance[edit]

Originally released in conjunction with the film Cocktail in 1988, the song originally peaked at No. 88 on the Billboard Hot 100.[8] The song was re-released the same year and peaked at No. 1 on September 24, 1988[8] displacing 'Sweet Child o' Mine' by Guns N' Roses.[9]

The song also peaked at No. 11 on the Billboard Hot R&B/Hip-Hop Tracks chart[10] and No. 7 on the Billboard Hot Adult Contemporary Tracks chart.[8] The song was also a hit in the United Kingdom and on the UK Singles Chart, the song reached number 2 during its fifth week on the chart (kept from the top spot by Whitney Houston's 'One Moment in Time').[11]

In Canada, the song reached No. 1 on its 8th week.[12]

The song is the first a cappella song to reach the Billboard Hot 100 chart and one critic noted it is a 'formula for facing life's trials.'[13]

Usage in popular culture[edit]

  • Comedian George Carlin wrote in Napalm and Silly Putty that many Americans would embrace the philosophy of denial in the song.[14]
  • Featured in the 1988 romance film Cocktail, starring Tom Cruise and Elisabeth Shue. It was also released as part of the film's official soundtrack.
  • The song was used in George H. W. Bush's 1988 U.S. presidential election as Bush's 1988 official presidential campaign song, without Bobby McFerrin's permission or endorsement. In reaction, McFerrin (a Democrat) publicly protested that particular use of his song, including stating that he was going to vote against Bush, and completely dropped the song from his own performance repertoire, to make the point even clearer. The Bush campaign then reportedly desisted from further use of the song.[15]
  • In 1989, Delacorte Press published a book titled Don't Worry, Be Happy with the song's lyrics, 20 new verses written by McFerrin, and illustrations by Bennett Carlson.
  • The song became an unofficial anthem in Jamaica after Hurricane Gilbert struck the island in September 1988 (coinciding with the song's release) and caused months of hardship to the population. The song is often erroneously attributed to Bob Marley, who died in 1981, seven years before the song was released.[16][17]
  • In 1997, the song was featured in the direct-to-video film Casper: A Spirited Beginning.
  • In 2001, Mondo Club recorded the titular single. The performer was Trevor Taylor.[18]
  • In 2003, the song was parodied on the show Futurama, in the episode 'The Sting'.
  • In 2005, featured in the biographical military drama Jarhead, starring Jake Gyllenhaal.
  • In 2006, the song was parodied in the animated film Flushed Away.
  • In 2008, the song was featured in the animated film WALL-E.
  • In November 2014, it was featured as a mashup with 'Winter Wonderland' by a cappella group Pentatonix featuring Tori Kelly on the album That's Christmas to Me.[19]
  • It was featured in the dance video game Just Dance 2015.
  • In 2017, the song was covered by Kermit Ruffins, Irvin Mayfield, Jason Marsalis, Cyril Neville, Haley Reinhart, and Glen David Andrews for Ruffins and Mayfield's album A Beautiful World.[20]
  • In 2018, the song was featured in the animated film Hotel Transylvania 3: Summer Vacation.

Awards[edit]

The song is ranked No. 31 on VH1's 100 Greatest One Hit Wonders of the 80s and also appears on Rolling Stone's list of the 15 Best Whistling Songs of All Time.[21]At the 1989 Grammy Awards, 'Don't Worry, Be Happy' won the awards for Song of the Year, Record of the Year, and Best Male Pop Vocal Performance.

Cover versions[edit]

Versions of 'Don't Worry, Be Happy' have been recorded by several artists. The Katsimiha Brothers made a Greek cover of the song with original lyrics, and Montenegrin musician Rambo Amadeus made a parody titled 'Don't Happy, Be Worry', as a critique to the optimism of the music scene in the former Yugoslavia in the face of war and economic depression. In addition, the lyrics of 'Fight the Power' by hip hop artists Public Enemy refer critically to 'Don't Worry, Be Happy'. A version of this song sung by The Hit Crew is also added into the Big Mouth Billy Bass, a very popular animatronic singing toy. Hermes House Band covered the song on their Rhythm of the Nineties album in 2009. Reggae artist Cas Haley covered the song as a hidden bonus track on his Favorites album (together with former Jah Roots lead singer, Josh Heinrichs). Also in 1989 Dutch rock DJ Alfred Lagarde recorded a version in Dutch with a heavy Surinam accent under the name Johnny Camaro. Spanish Ska band The Locos covered this song in a similar style, ska.
