Bobby McFerrin AIDS. A modified version of the song "Thinkin' About Your Body" (as "Thinkin' About Your Chocolate") from the album "Spontaneous Inventions" was used in a series of UK Cadbury's chocolate adverts in 1989/1990. As early as 1992, widespread rumors circulated that falsely claimed McFerrin committed suicide. The rumors intentionally made fun of the distinctly positive nature of his popular song "Don't Worry, Be Happy" by claiming McFerrin took his own life. In 1993, McFerrin sang Henry Mancini's "Pink Panther" theme for the movie "Son of the Pink Panther". In addition to his vocal performing career, in 1994, Mr. McFerrin was
Don't Worry, Be Happy and everything he has ever heard has gone into his brain, from the Mickey Mouse Club theme to the Metropolitan Opera." The "instruments" in the "a cappella" song are entirely overdubbed voice parts and other sounds made by McFerrin, using no instruments at all; McFerrin also sings with an affected accent. The comedic original music video for the song stars McFerrin, Robin Williams, and Bill Irwin, and is somewhat shorter than the album version. Originally released in conjunction with the film "Cocktail" in 1988, the song originally peaked at No. 88 on the "Billboard" Hot 100. The song was re-released
