Pharrell Williams says writing 'Happy' broke him. It went on to become one of the biggest songs of the 2010s.
Briefly

"It was only until you were out of ideas, and you asked yourself a rhetorical question, and you came back with a sarcastic answer, and that's what 'Happy' was...that sarcasm became the song, and that broke me."
"Writing 'Happy,' 'Get Lucky,' and 'Blurred Lines' were defining moments in my career because they all made me realize I wasn't in control of my success."
