I don't know about that. Though "Zip A Dee Doo Dah" was a top 20 hit (I 
think it peaked at #8 and in 1963, not '62), "Don't Worry" (the Marty 
Robbins track) was the #28 record of 1961, beating out records like "Quarter 
to Three", "Blue Moon", "Little Sister", "Calendar Girl", "Runaround Sue", 
and "Hello Mary Lou". ("Zip A Dee Doo Dah" did not finish in the Top 50 of 
1963). I don't think that you can say that more people "certainly heard" 
"Zip A Dee Doo Dah" than "Don't Worry".  Honestly, when you ask most people, 
"Zip A Dee Doo Dah" is a song from a Disney movie, not a pop record.
