The song became so popular throughout the world that speakers of many languages adopted its title phrase, 'Que sera sera', into their speech, or at least came to recognize it and understand its meaning separate from the music.

The song is sometimes confused with the song Che sarà, released by José Feliciano-in Italian in 1971, and later in Spanish-but the two songs have nothing in common except the similarity of their titles and the general theme of concern about the future. It was a #1 hit in Australia for pop singer Normie Rowe in September 1965. The title sequence of the Hitchcock film gives the song title as Whatever Will Be. It was the third Oscar in this category for Livingston and Evans, who previously won in 19. The song received the 1956 Academy Award for Best Original Song with the alternative title ' Whatever Will Be, Will Be (Que Sera, Sera)'. The three verses of the song progress through the life of the narrator-from childhood, to young adulthood and falling in love, to parenthood-and each asks 'What will I be?' or 'What lies ahead?' The chorus repeats the answer: 'What will be will be.' It reached the Billboard magazine charts in July 1956. From 1968 to 1973, it was the theme song for the situation comedy The Doris Day Show, becoming her signature song. ĭay's recording of the song for Columbia Records ( catalog number 40704) made it to number two on the Billboard Hot 100 and number one in the UK Singles Chart. The song was introduced in the Alfred Hitchcock film The Man Who Knew Too Much (1956), starring Doris Day and James Stewart in the lead roles.
