+Jose Feliciano Sung another song!

Please! Jose Feliciano DON'T SING this Doris day song!!

In 1971 Jose was a big UE hit of a song called only "Que Sera" and this songis a spanish traslation of an original italian song called "Che Sara" write by Jimmy Fontana and Carlo Migliacci. In 1971 Jose Feliciano present this song in italian at Festival di Sanremo and also recorded a spanish version (Que Sera) and a English Version called "Shake a Hand". all versions were big hit in UE and South america in differents languages, BUT NOTHING of all these had nothing to do with Doris day song called "Que sera sera"

The data has been fixed, thanks for the correction
