If you like Doris Day, you'll like this album. Doris doesn't sing many of her songs from movies, but her version of Singing in the Rain is just as good as Gene Kelley's. Her innocent type of singing makes these old favorites seem like totally new songs. I hardly recognized some of them, but I fell in love with them right away. I would recommend this to anybody who likes to hear old classics.
Sure this CD is for the most part a remake (re-issued materials), but there's a gem here, too. The song "From Both Sides...", is, I think, from one of her TV specials and can't be found anywhere expect perhaps in the big box collections. Check it out!
When I buy a CD because of one song, I expect to find a few others I like as well. Not so here. The title song, Que Sera Sera, is the only one I do not find excessively "la-di-da". In addition, the remakers did an atrocious job of creating fake stereo on the title track, and on a few others. It's earsplitting, if you listen on headphones. Stereo should remain stereo, mono should remain mono. Those who re-issue old material need to learn this lesson.
