Don't You Worry Child

"Don't You Worry Child" is the sixth and final single released by Swedish house music supergroup Swedish House Mafia.

History

The song was announced during the Swedish House Mafia's tour of Australia while they played at Future Music Festival 2012. They say it was made from the inspiration they took from the beauty of Australia. The title "Don't You Worry Child" was mentioned a few times, with hints from the group members themselves on their Twitter pages. When it was announced that the tour the Swedish House Mafia was about to set on would be their last, a farewell single was also announced – "Don't You Worry Child" being that single. The song had its live debut at the Swedish House Mafia's Milton Keynes Bowl concert and its radio debut on Pete Tong's BBC Radio 1 show on 10 August 2012. The song contains a sample from the song "Be My World" by Italian dance act Milky.

The song was included on their tour One Last Tour, which ended in Miami where they parted ways forever.
