Bobby is one of my favorite.
He’s special human sunshine when the human faith is a slouch.
Good one,.
This was a big song for McFerrin and more of a one hit success. But he has collaborated with some of the greats as Herbie Hancock and Dizzy Gillespie.. a big plus for him.
I love this song and needed it today.
