@@justsomename-ct1mb I'm not belittling Bobby McFerrin's talent, skills or vision: A sound engineer can't put in what's not already there. My pet peeve is simply that people tend to overlook the support needed to bring a performance from "good enough" to "Wow!" ...and I did watch the live version from Montreal. There's an engineer on that, too ;)
had this album on cassette back in the day, loved it. The Acapella Academy cover brought me back to this song all these years later. Seven on Earth really did this song justice. Both original and cover are unbelievable! This musician gives both 2 thumbs up.
Thank you Bobby for the lyrical inspiration.... one year ago.. .I got in my car.. and drove fast.. to a new job.. better place.... "drive so far... no one is going to find mee..e.e..... drive so fast no ones going to catch me... ".... :-) Cheers to all
Amazing song, maestro! Thank you very much for your work and long lasting musicianship! You made my life more beautiful, stress free, and relaxing! Cheers and many blessings and good luck to you and your family! Namaste! 🙂
the kind of music that makes you tap along and only realize 2 minutes later that you're terrible at keeping rhythm but you don't care because the song is moving you
Scidibop boop badum tip top too doo - Translation: This marvelous musical arrangement deeply nourishes the soul, furthermore it is what the youngsters of our generation nowadays would classify as "straight fire" or "a vibe"...
one of the best performances and music tunes I've ever heard !!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Bobby you're king of musical freestyle and individuality. You're every single tune is making me dance, feel and be happy !!. Thank you for that. With love !!
I like "Don't Worry Be Happy" (despite everyone saying "worst song ever," not even close) but I always was curious about what else there was to this artist. I came across this and I'm glad I did. I am amazed.
In the running for most amazing vocalist of his generation. Unfortunately, most people who recognize his name just think of "Don't Worry Be Happy". For a further example of what he's capable of, listen to his collaboration album "Hush" with cellist Yo-Yo Ma.
Man, that Bobby McFerrin would go back to doing stuff like this. Just because it was so amazing. What he's doing now is okay, but this is what drew me to him. The pure amazing original factor of it all.
This song is so underrated.
You are very right indeed!
Very!!
How so?
It was a hit
and it's been used on adverts.
True
And such a gorgeous and artsy music video
One of a kind talent. One man, no instruments.
....Except his body.
... and his soul.
...and a sound engineer with a bunch of equalizing options ;)
Watch the live version!
@@Smo1k i know im late but if u havent watch the live version like they said dont tske from his talent

Found this masterpiece while tripping on 2 tabs of lsd it was an amazing experience
Same thing happened to me a few years ago. Since this moment I can t think in a single video more psychedelic.
I envy you
🍁 ✌🏿
Im.40 I found this when the year the record came out. I'm a natural talented rythmist
I’m so jealous lmao
I've always loved how this song starts off running right out of the gate, a relentless gem.
The director of the music video did a flawless job!!
I just heard this song yesterday and I couldn’t get it out of my mind and this is 2023
This man is so under-rated as a living loving musical machine of melody and merriment.
I used to replay this song over and over and over when it came out. It's so underrated.
I love how if this were played with instruments, it would STILL be awesome.
This is such a beautiful timeless song!

i love this guy sooo much.... he is soo multitalented.. i have his live DVD
can you share the dvd?? i love this genius too
I’ve been listening to Bobby McFerrin for a few decades, and Drive is one of my favorite pieces. Every time I listen to it, I’m in awe.
This song has a great atmosphere.
He did this on SNL and flat blew it up. Love to see that performance again
I heard this as a kid in my kindergarten music class...This brought back so many memories!
Spent most of the 90s on the road, this was one of my favorite travelling songs...drive away...drive so far no one's gonna find me...
Love it
Such an influential moment in music history 😍 Complex simplicity isn’t easy, sense?!
Nice yes!!!!
THE ONE TrUE ONE MAN BAND !!
Thank you Bobby for the lyrical inspiration.... one year ago.. .I got in my car.. and drove fast.. to a new job.. better place.... "drive so far... no one is going to find mee..e.e..... drive so fast no ones going to catch me... "....
:-) Cheers to all
Bobby knows how to get folks through some shit.
Amazing song, maestro! Thank you very much for your work and long lasting musicianship! You made my life more beautiful, stress free, and relaxing! Cheers and many blessings and good luck to you and your family! Namaste! 🙂

This deserves to be the intro music of great car sims
Truly a one-man band!!! An awesome one!!!
I agree its so underrated. My absolute fav acapela AND fav BMCF song.

I love this song!!
Way ahead of its time
Im so happy i have met him in real life and sang with him!!!!
thanks A Cappella Academy for bringing me here to hear the original

A legend,hands down my favorite❤
It's 2022 and I'm here 🔥🙌🏾
Este señor es una eminencia.disfruten de esta genial obra de arte...
Give a man a microphone and he makes music for maybe a day... Give him a multi-track and he makes music for life.
This album is one of my prized possessions...
You can't beat this vibe for getting in your car & rolling out...
I've played this in the car with my dad when we go on long night drives, it seriously hits
we need a little more soul-refreshing music like this.....
Before Jacob Collier, it was Bobby McFerrin 🔥 geniuses.
I love this to bits! and love to harmonise along to it.... yay! x
OH MY GOD! I will sing it as long as I possibly can
Well, if you know how to, then good for you!
What an artist !! Amazing !
Christ. A duo between Al Jarreau and Bobby McFerrin would pretty much make my year. I wonder if they've ever sung together before...
Used to JAM to this with my mother in her Mazda RX7 as a kid... TODAY, it's me jammin in My car! YESSSSS!!!
This is one of my favourite songs from Bobby
From one of his BEST albums
Takes me back - his vocals and body "percussion."
A gifted talent right here. I love his m6.
`always puts a LARGE smile on my face!
I always knew about this one but could never remember it when I wanted to look it up.
Dear Bobby, AWESOOOOOOOOOME!!
A raw talent like no other! JAH bless!
My dad used to play this...truly a very talented man
Love this mans music
Used to have the album this was on. "Simple Pleasures" Wish I still had it.
Just love this !
It's really gorgeous, Mr Mcferrin. Thank you for it.
this man is a treasure
Pure magic!
I like "Don't Worry Be Happy" (despite everyone saying "worst song ever," not even close) but I always was curious about what else there was to this artist. I came across this and I'm glad I did. I am amazed.
Oh, this makes me want to get behind the wheel of a Mustang
This video has inspired me. It is so incredible that a person can do this with only their voice
I love this song.
what kind of badass is this gentleman?
In the running for most amazing vocalist of his generation. Unfortunately, most people who recognize his name just think of "Don't Worry Be Happy".
For a further example of what he's capable of, listen to his collaboration album "Hush" with cellist Yo-Yo Ma.
Thank you for that recommendation. I've been enjoying it immensely!
this is just so magnifi.
his voice is awsome!
I love this song
🗣Hey, BOBBY...it's bout t be 2022, and im STILL DRIVIN', MY G!
Man, that Bobby McFerrin would go back to doing stuff like this. Just because it was so amazing. What he's doing now is okay, but this is what drew me to him. The pure amazing original factor of it all.
Amazing ❤️
He has more then that.. He just does not gloat about it.
amazing song.
This made me think of one of the openings to the Cosby Show. Turns out Bobby did that version.
This is art😪🙌
Eve "ryde away".. i love finding the original .
its amazing
The 67 people that hated this have no idea what real music is
This man is the coolest
not just talent but genius
A pretty good song. It deserves more attention.
MOAR BOBBY MCFERRIN MOAR!!! I hear him too rarely in this damned media! PUSH THE TALENTS!!!!!
Love it! 3
jazz legend
I feel this guy. I love getting lost on the open road. I just want to travel aimlessly on the interstate.
I heard this on tiktok I flew to RUclips to find it I love it!!!
Bobby helped me make my only song I own I didn't clear samples and Warner owns my entire library except my vocal song
Awesome sauce!
I agree!
Me too!
talent talent
Still inspiring Mr Bobby McFerrin!!!

Always me five minute later:

Acapella at it's best.
