- Bobby McFerrin (known for "Don't Worry, Be Happy) improvised the audio
- for Knickknack a capella in about eight tracks, with few or no retakes,
- working from video after all animation and editing were completed. I don't
- think there has ever been a score or title to the musical work. I remember
- Craig was blown away at how little time McFerrin needed to improvise the
- music and lay down the tracks.
