Que Sera, Sera (Whatever Will Be, Will Be)
"Que Sera, Sera (Whatever Will Be, Will Be)" is a popular song written by the Jay Livingston and Ray Evans in 1956. It was made popular by the darling of Hollywood then, Doris Day. The song was a hit in both USA (#2 on the Billboard charts) and UK (6 weeks at # 1 from August to September 1956). It has become Doris' signature song since.
The song was featured in an Alfred Hitchcock's thriller, The Man Who Knew too Much, with Doris Day and James Stewart in the lead roles. It was naturally chosen as the theme song for her TV situation comedy, The Doris Day Show, from 1968 - 1973.
Among the many artistes who have covered the song are: Connie Francis (1963), Mary Hopkin (1969) and Shaking Stevens (1982).
If you are a football fan, you probably have heard the chorus of this song too. It is regularly sung at English matches when a team is progressing to the next round of a competition that will ultimately lead them to Wembly Stadium. The lyrics has changed to "Que Sera, Sera, whatever will be, will be, we're going to Wembley, Que Sera Sera".
