Hive Open Mic 142 - Que Sera (Doris Day)
For this week's theme "Nuestro Destino" I'm going to share a classic tune by Doris Day, "Que Sera", which serves the theme in two ways: Firstly the destiny of a little boy in the film in which the song was used, and secondly simply by its lyrics, that we all can relate to.
Doris Day sang it in the Alfred Hitchcock film "The Man Who Knew Too Much" for which it won an Academy Award in 1956.
Being a singer in the film she sings this song to her kidnapped son as an aid for him to be rescued by his father, played by James Stewart.
The song is quite simple, but covers in just a few words and only three verses the whole life of a person and raising the point that we often don't know what will become of us.
However, it does leave out that not all is left to chance, but that we do indeed have some control over what happens to us! It's sometimes just a matter of how much work we want to put into that control!
Anyway, I hope, you like this one and as always: Thanks for listening! 😃

Very appropriate indeed. I've not heard you do this one before. I've heard Jim do it a few times. Love the sound of that guitar. Nicely done.
Thanks, Barbara!
Yes, it's normally Jim's song, but it occurred to me that it might be a good one for this week. 😃
What a joy to coincide with your work in this last week of the year my dear Anke. I never tire of admiring you and I am very happy to see that you have ventured into the 3speak platform as well, a perfect medium to enhance your great talent.

Thank you so much Jesús!
I will for sure, things have been a little busy lately, but getting back now.
So, you think I'd be good at Spanish?
I am very glad to hear that as I am finally learning it! YAY!
This community is the trigger, and I am superbly grateful for that!
About time.. haha.
I too wish you a very Happy New Year for you and your family, especially your Dad!
Take care!
This is the perfect song for the theme, I'm not even kidding.... Wish you a great year ahead ma'am
Thank you!
The only version that I knew of this song was really dark, so I really love your bright take on it.
Edit: I just went to listen to the one from Doris Day, I understand now, the song is very joyful. I knew the one from The Pixies.
You did very well!
Wow, this is cool!
It's got a Leonard Cohen feel to it!
Thank you so much for sharing this!
Brilliant! 👌
I love this from my childhood.. cool play and singing there .
Happy new year
Thank you, my friend!
Happy New Year to you too!
