is the most globally beloved anthem to happiness of all time.
Much more than a catchy feel-good tune, it is also a catchphrase that is brimming with layers of insight and inspiration that has appealed to a select group of licensors from the finest companies, premium products and major TV and film productions.
Don’t Worry Be Happy™
a #1 worldwide hit by Bobby McFerrin
the innovative and critically acclaimed vocalist, songwriter, international concert artist, and orchestral conductor. It was the first a cappella song comprised of seven individual vocal parts, each sung entirely by McFerrin with no instrumental accompaniment to reach #1 on the top 40 charts. The song is the opening track of his multi-platinum album, Simple Pleasures, and went on to win the 1988 Grammy Awards for Song of the Year, Record of the Year, and Best Male Pop Vocal Performance… and continues to win a whole lot of hearts and smiles too.
In a worldwide marketplace teeming with millions of products and services, DON’T WORRY BE HAPPY™ has stood out from the clutter, earning well deserved good will and attention for well over 33 years
