ケセラセラ

"ケセラセラ" (Que Sera Sera) is Mrs. GREEN APPLE at their most buoyantly cathartic, a J-pop anthem engineered for mass uplift. Built as the theme to a TV drama, it surges with the band's hallmark brightness — galloping piano, a driving band groove, layered backing vocals that build to a stadium-sized chorus. Motoki Omori's voice is the centerpiece: clear, agile, capable of soaring into a desperate near-falsetto that carries both strain and joy. The title borrows the old "whatever will be, will be" sentiment, but the song reframes that fatalism as active resilience rather than passive shrug — an acknowledgment that life batters you, that you'll cry and fail and feel small, paired with the insistence that you keep moving anyway. It's the sound of choosing optimism as a deliberate act of survival. This kind of emotionally maximal, lyrically encouraging pop is a Japanese mainstream staple, and Mrs. GREEN APPLE became one of the country's biggest acts by perfecting it. The song became a karaoke and graduation staple. Best played loud when you need a push — commuting on a hard morning, studying toward a deadline, talking yourself back up after a setback that knocked the wind out of you.
