Seriously?

Bobby McFerrin is taking time off for the first time in 15 years. Really, no time off in more than a decade? I find this hard to believe; I cannot recall the last time I heard anything at all about Bobby McFerrin.

Still, I suppose he is, by default, the workhorse of the a capella, vocal-sound-effect-laden pop genre. So I guess he's earned it. What concerns me is how I'll get through the next year knowing that he isn't out on the road somewhere, humming the bass line to "Don't Worry, Be Happy" to eager Cocktail fans.
