Natalie's song "Whatever" starts with an introduction by the singer, asking the audience to sit back, relax, and let go. This sets the mood for a story that she narrates about herself and her experiences. The song is a spin-off of the famous song "Que Sera, Sera" by Doris Day. Natalie recalls asking her mother about her future, whether she would be pretty or rich when she was a little girl. Her mother's response, "Que sera, sera," meaning "whatever will be, will be," emphasizes the concept of not worrying about the future.
As she grows older, Natalie falls in love, and she again questions what her future holds with her lover. He echoes her mother's words with, "Que sera, sera" and tells her not to worry about what the future holds but to focus on the present. The song emphasizes the message of living in the moment and not fretting about the future, as it is not in our control.
In essence, the song is about accepting the unpredictable nature of life and living in the present rather than worrying about what's to come. It presents a sense of freedom and encourages people to let go of their fears, pressures, and doubts and enjoy the moment they are living in.
