Overview

"Sunny" is a soul jazz standard written by Bobby Hebb in 1963. It is one of the most performed and recorded popular songs, with hundreds of versions released. BMI rates "Sunny" No. 25 in its "Top 100 songs of the century". Background and composition Hebb's parents, William and Ovalla Hebb, were both blind musicians. Hebb and his older brother Harold performed as a song-and-dance duo in Nashville, beginning when Bobby was three and Harold was nine. Hebb performed on a TV show hosted by country music record producer Owen Bradley. Hebb wrote the song after his older brother, Harold, was stabbed to death outside a Nashville nightclub. Hebb was devastated by the event and many critics say it inspired the lyrics and tune. According to Hebb, he merely wrote the song as an expression of a preference for a "sunny" disposition over a "lousy" disposition following the murder of his brother.

“Death comes to all, but great achievements build a monument which shall endure until the sun grows cold.”
— Georg Fabricius, in praise of Georg Agricola in De Metallicis Rebus (1566); as translated by Herbert Clark Hoover and Lou Henry Hoover in the introduction to their 1912 translation of Agricola's De Re Metallica (1556)
“Thou shall come out of a warme Sunne into God's blessing.”
— John Lyly, Euphues. Howell, Instructions for Ferreine Travell (1642), Arber's reprint, 1869
“There is no patent. Could you patent the sun?”
— Jonas Salk, in response to the question regarding his Polio vaccine, "Who owns the patent on this vaccine?" by Edward R. Murrow, in a CBS Television interview, on See It Now (12 April 1955); quoted in Jon Cohen, Shots in the Dark: The Wayward Search for an AIDS Vaccine (2001)
“Whose dwelling is the light of setting suns.”
— William Wordsworth, "On Revisiting the Banks of Wye" (1798)
“The sun never leaves my heart, which surpasses a garden.”
