@@pennyjerkins7115 The one from spontaneous inventions sounds a bit like hes under water; I like it too. My favourite is th-cam.com/video/NjR_brUhYNs/w-d-xo.html (starts at 20:20).
Definitely the best version of this song. It actually helps out with my mood. I listen to this particular version a few times a day. I wish they would've caught the whole thing from the beginning.
i was there the night this was filmed, i was rappin on there, we performed just before bobby, he is a realy nice guy, had time to chat with us and even performed for us in the green room,
This was taped off UK TV in the mid 80's, then spent 20 years gathering dust. It blew my mind at the time. I'm glad that other people appreciate his unique talent. BTW did you notice that the studio audience start cheering before he had finished? This was because Bon Jovi arrived on the adjacent stage, ready to play the next song, and their fans start cheering.
Crazy how we love music like this now and it hasnt faded i can hear an electronic version of this and it kinda feels like vaperwave in a sense or home-resonance
i agree with Cunnilinguist76... almost Bobby is actually one of THE best musicians in the world. But "don't worry be happy has made SO many people happy. It's not REALLY a shame. I'm glad we get to discover the rest of his beautiful surprises for ourselves.
Amazing track - Bobby is truely gifted - one of my best. Don't know how people could possibly cheer for Bon Jovi when this is going on - but Bobby takes it in his stride - perhaps he would have gone a bit bit more if it wasn't for people's rudeness, nevertheless, amazing
This guy has proven how beautiful sounds can come from the human voice, i love his confidence and how he wants to show all his vocal talents, he can just press play in his head and the pattern starts moving like fruity loops, i love how he imitates the guitar and deep bass, how it all fits together, and how he changes the pitch of his voice up and down, he hasn't wasted the wonderful gift of his voice and he is amazing.
i can hear an electronic version of this and it kinda feels like vaperwave or just one of those songs with a an aesthetic or retro background on like: home-resonance
For the first time I've seen this video and heard Bobby just few days ago...and now I can't stop watching it ! Bobby is fantastic ! I also like "I've got a feeling" available from the shortcut list on the right. Incredible!
@drzozzy Yeah, I remember this. I felt so sorry for him when the Bon bloody Jovi fans started up.. how rude of them. He really inspired me at the time because I was a bass singer in an acapella group. He 'showed' me that it was possible to be inventive and try different techniques of using your voice. The original 'beat boxer' if you ask me.
'm gonna get in the car Drive away Drive so far No one's gonna find me Put my foot on the gas Accelerate Drive so fast No one's gonna catch me Gonna get in the car Drive away Drive so far No one's gonna find me Put my foot on the gas Accelerate Drive so fast No one's gonna catch me Gonna get in the car Drive away Drive so far No one's gonna find me Put my foot on the gas Accelerate Drive so fast No one's gonna catch me No one's gonna catch me
Like wow....awesome! And here he is still SO young and this is already one of his best years. Later versions of this song, as great as they are, seem to have lost his deep sonorous lower range that are obvious here. What happened?
Check out MusFlashTV on Sky 375. They do late night 'spotlight' shows which have like loads of acoustic artists and poets and beatboxers. I think its the closest thing you will get to this nowadays!
@ginnyann he didn't grow the dreads until later. He sounds better without them because he is younger. The voice ages. Check out his classical stuff if you're into that (i.e. Ave Maria, Bach Partita,etc) Also his appearance on Sesame Street is cool.
This version is great! I wonder if he can still sing this way if he wanted to. Sorry I forgot the most impotatna thing- to thank you for sharing this. Did you take this video yourself?
I ALWAYS wondered about that. I wondered whether is was Bon Jovi or Patti Labelle as she finished that particular show. Was Miles Davis playing "Tutu" live on this broadcast too?
Is it just me being naive and newly introduced to his magic, but it seems that his long beautiful dreads lock may have held his voice and talent in, because every song that I have seen where the dreads are gone are remarkably better. Of course, there are so many vids out there that I have not seen as of yet! (Send me suggestions if you want!)
@drzozzy Let me get this straight, the audience clapped & cheered over the top of a fantastically good performance because a pile of poo was being swept onto an adjacent stage?

Please take note: this is a direct recording. No remix. No autotune. That's how talented this man is.
this is my fave version, I love all the little 'fills' he does
By far this is the best version first heard it when I was 15 in 86 . The tube what a programme.
im with you on this on 2023
Best version hands down. Always coming back for a listen. Also love the one from his concert spontaneous. Cheers eveyone

Doodle-EHH! (BOOM-BAP-badaddleoodle-boom)
Gonna get'n m'caaaar...!
I think I have listened to this about 30 times, becomes greater every time. This is more than talent, he must have worked so hard to become this good
14 years ago :0
Definitely the best version of this song. It actually helps out with my mood. I listen to this particular version a few times a day. I wish they would've caught the whole thing from the beginning.
its unbelievable how he gets these vibrations out of his voice
This lives in my head rent free. I can't get it to move out and I honestly don't mind that it's there.
i was there the night this was filmed, i was rappin on there, we performed just before bobby, he is a realy nice guy, had time to chat with us and even performed for us in the green room,
Ashamed but appreciative that tiktok brought me to this 💎

More please. TH-cam is so full of that damn "Don't Worry" that I was so pleased to find this gem.
Gosh, 17 years ago, you are a legend)
One of his most iconic moments!
Bobby King McFerrin Oh my God
I LOVE BOBBY
that is such a tune man!!!!
i agree with Cunnilinguist76... almost
Bobby is actually one of THE best musicians in the world. But "don't worry be happy has made SO many people happy. It's not REALLY a shame. I'm glad we get to discover the rest of his beautiful surprises for ourselves.
never get tired of this. music I grew up to
LEGEND!!!
Still amazing.
how does this not have more views?! this is like youtube history and gold all wrapped up into one amazing video
Amazing track - Bobby is truely gifted - one of my best. Don't know how people could possibly cheer for Bon Jovi when this is going on - but Bobby takes it in his stride - perhaps he would have gone a bit bit more if it wasn't for people's rudeness, nevertheless, amazing
I remember when this was used in a 501 jeans commercial! Still sounds just as good now.

From 1986 to 2017 been 31 yrs..
This is one of my all time favorites of his!
If you listen carefully he even inhales on a note to fill the space
This is amazing.
I know someone tried to do this when they got home.
and can you imagine.. it is the same guy who sings don't worry be happy:)
he is great artist!
i think this version is a little better than the montreal one, except the montreal one has the sick two-voices at once thing. he's amazing in both.
i must say that again...i feel this music ;D
Sound maker genius.
He's actually having a phuqing concert in my town today, I'm so psyched!!!!
God bless you!
Amazing

This man is always amazing!
I used to love The Tube.
Wasn't The Tube where Jools Holland started?

you've great reason...
I'm looking for the more recent version where he is in a lecture hall with black clothes and dreadlocks
@dms2127 Thanks for the info. I will always love this song!
fucking, delicous awesome.
Check out MusFlashTV on Sky 375. They do late night 'spotlight' shows which have like loads of acoustic artists and poets and beatboxers. I think its the closest thing you will get to this nowadays!

Beginnings to beatboxing?
Yeah, but "Don't worry, Be happy" is part of our culture now. There is no greater compliment society can give a person.
i like his other version better buh its good styll
CAPO TOTAL!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!1
This version is great! I wonder if he can still sing this way if he wanted to. Sorry I forgot the most impotatna thing- to thank you for sharing this. Did you take this video yourself?
hahahahah I see him in the strippy jumper thingy. Hahahah
He is so good that when he hits the higher notes it sounds like autotune😭
take that t-pain
Oh my Gawd! I cant find no of his live footage anywhere,plez let me know where I might be able to get it!
I ALWAYS wondered about that.
I wondered whether is was Bon Jovi or Patti Labelle as she finished that particular show.
Was Miles Davis playing "Tutu" live on this broadcast too?
This was used to Cadbury's not 501's as I seem to remember ?
every version is a little different. KICKASS
@rapbestone Drive away uuublebebubbee
Is he still around and performing? Where can you catch him?
is it true that he stayed in a room just practicing to see how many sounds he can get out of his mouth?
Is he strumming an air guitar in his left hand?
I think he's miming playing a trombone to control his pitch.
Ahead of his time.
Some of it might be the audio recording quality that detracts from the sound of his voice.
Bobby McTheramin??????????????
esguey
It doesn't really look like the audience get it.
Is it just me being naive and newly introduced to his magic, but it seems that his long beautiful dreads lock may have held his voice and talent in, because every song that I have seen where the dreads are gone are remarkably better. Of course, there are so many vids out there that I have not seen as of yet! (Send me suggestions if you want!)
When he has dreads hes older tht takes a toll on somes vocal ability 😅
really?
Unlikely, the point is, it looks loads like him, not really worth discussing, but I'm pretty bored obviously.
singing is self injury ? That's a new one...
....Aaand. I'm no longer worried about the illuminati mind contRol matrix
@drzozzy Let me get this straight, the audience clapped & cheered over the top of a fantastically good performance because a pile of poo was being swept onto an adjacent stage?
Autism is so sad.... all the symptoms are there....Self-injury, Stereotypy
Is he still around and performing? Where can you catch him?
