Que Sera Sera

I've always loved this song but I've also always thought it had a seriously dark side. The tune is haunting in its simplicity, and the stark fatalism next to the childish innocence in the lyrics suggests to me that some serious badness is stalking the singer. And this version is probably the most dreamlike and unsettling of all the covers I've heard, with the minor chords and the bridge like unhinged circus music.

Or maybe I've just seen "Heathers" too many times.

this song is sooooooo good my mum use to ig it on karaoke

It's a sweet song...it's very nostalgic...It actually played on an episode of the late "Dead Like Me"..I think it was actually the first episode..or second..p.s. that show SHOULD NOT HAVE BEEN CANCELLED. BAH!

Yes, blahness90, the first ep of DLM. A freaking amazing series, and this song was just so sad and perfect for the scene.

You should also listen to the song with the same title by Doris Day. Most of the lyrics are the same, with one different stanza. This song featured on Alfred Hitchcock's movie "The Man Who Knew Too Much", from the '50s. Doris Day also played the lead female actor role in the movie.

The darker use of the piano chords over the Doris Day version is what makes this song. Definitely makes it cunningly complex by combining child-innocent lyrics with the uneasiness portrayed by the music.

My favorite version of this song is by Sly and the Family Stone (http://songza.com/z/bt6att). It's a beautiful and spooky funk-gospel version. I could listen to it every day...

Am I not the only one who heard this song first from Heathers?

Wonderful, song. The innocence is haunting in a way, and it feels like something is lurking just behind each lyric.
