"Don't Worry, Be Happy" is one of Bobby McFerrin's most popular songs. I hope you'll enjoy my original 3-part TBB a cappella arrangement of this little gem.
"Don't Worry Be Happy" was the first a cappella song to reach number-one on the Billboard Hot 100 chart, a position it held for two weeks. The Indian mystic Meher Baba often used the expression "Don't worry, be happy" when cabling his followers in the West, and the expression was printed on inspirational cards and posters during the 1960s. In 1988, McFerrin noticed a similar poster in the apartment of jazz duo Tuck & Patti in San Francisco, and he was inspired by the expression's charm and simplicity. He wrote the song that was included in the soundtrack of the movie Cocktail and became a hit single the next year. 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.
