Don’t Worry, Be Happy, WTF?
This video has come up in conversation twice in the last three days. I decided to take a look at it again. This video is so fucking weird. Bobby McFerrin, who has by in large had a respectable career, is clearly bat shit crazy. This video is really depressing too… thats the weird thing, and pretty bad advice. People are about to kill themselves because they are getting evicted, ripped off and their house is falling apart… and he is just like “Don’t worry!” I think that instead of just not worrying, they should probably do something about their problems instead of holding on to their fish bowl for dear life. Clearly the weirdest part is the three people dancing throughout the video. I don’t even understand what the hell is going on, but I suggest you watch this video again if you haven’t seen it recently. Insane.

You aren’t giving him enough credit. Video is very clearly tongue-in-cheek; meant to be funny. It prominently features Robin Williams, for god’s sake. Also, McFerrin wrote the rhyme:
“Landlord says your rent is late,
he may have to litigate,”
which is so simple & brilliant, and I never would have thought of it.
