SWEDISH HOUSE MAFIA - DON’T YOU WORRY CHILD

Released: September 14, 2012

Charted:  US: #6    UK: #1 (1 week)

"Don't You Worry Child" is the sixth single by Swedish house music supergroup Swedish House Mafia. Featured on their second compilation album, "Until Now," the song showcases vocals by Swedish singer John Martin. In the United States, it became the group's second number-one single on Billboard's Dance/Mix Show Airplay chart, following "Save the World." Considered their biggest hit single, it was the final release before their disbandment in early 2013. The song received widespread acclaim and earned a Grammy nomination for Best Dance Recording at the 2013 Grammy Awards.

The inspiration behind "Don't You Worry Child" stemmed from Swedish House Mafia's admiration for Sydney, Australia. Axwell recalled the experience of being at a stunning house by the water in Sydney, taking in the breathtaking views. Sitting in the garden with an ocean view, they aimed to capture the essence of the scenery in their music. 

John Martin reflected on a pivotal moment in his career when he arrived in the USA in February 2012. Upon receiving a text from his manager informing him that "Don't You Worry Child" was in the Top 10 on the Billboard Chart, he turned on the radio in his hire car and heard the song playing. This sudden success marked a significant shift in his life, as the song became omnipresent during his travels, playing constantly on repeat. Despite never having performed the track live at that stage, he soon found himself playing in front of 100,000 people in Stockholm over a three-day period. 

The music video was released alongside the single, and it was filmed on location at Swedish House Mafia's final British performance on July 14, 2012, at the National Bowl in Milton Keynes.
