Foi a primeira música a cappella a chegar ao número 1 no Billboard Hot 100, mantendo a posição por duas semanas em 1988.
A faixa foi lançada em sintonia com o filme *Cocktail*, alcançando o topo da tabela no dia 24 de setembro de 1988, quando deslocou “Sweet Child o’ Mine” do Guns N’ Roses.
No mesmo ano, a canção venceu três prêmios no Grammy: Song of the Year, Record of the Year e Best Male Pop Vocal Performance.
No cenário internacional, “Don’t Worry, Be Happy” dominou o mercado australiano por sete semanas seguidas e chegou ao segundo lugar no Reino Unido na quinta semana de circulação.
Em 2024, o single foi incluído no United States National Recording Registry do Library of Congress, reconhecendo sua importância cultural, histórica e estética.
