DEF: Bobby McFerrin “Don’t Worry, Be Happy”
New York City-born musician Bobby McFerrin has made just one appearance on Billboard‘s Hot 100 chart, though that one song — “Don’t Worry, Be Happy” — became a tremendous hit. Exactly 30 years ago, “Don’t Worry, Be Happy” climbed to number one for a two-week reign at the top of the chart. To commemorate that anniversary, “Don’t Worry, Be Happy” by Bobby McFerrin is today’s Daily Eighties Flashback.
