"Don't You Worry 'bout a Thing" was a hit single from Stevie Wonder's album Innervisions. The song's lyrics convey a positive message about taking things in stride and accentuating the positive.
It begins with an unusual spoken bit of dialogue, a forerunner of the "skits" popular in later hip-hop albums, in which Wonder portrays a slick character trying to impress a woman with his worldliness. " 'Cause like I been to, y'know, Paris, Peru, y'know, I mean, uh, Iraq, Iran, Eurasia... y'know I speak very, very, um fluent Spanish -- 'Todo 'sta bien chevere' -- you got that? "
In 2005, it was covered by John Legend, produced by will.i.am of The Black Eyed Peas, and included on the soundtrack to Hitch.
