Selena‘s voice was so pretty ☺️ wish she was still here😭😭😭
Bro i love her so much man 😮💨😮💨😮💨 just watching interviews just make you feel her aura
coming from a country from the Ex Eastern Bloc, this segregation is uncomprehensive to me. Whatever broken regime we had, in the 50's and 60's international African students were supprorted in reciving their higher academic education in my counry. Many African leaders recived quality education in Eastern Europe. And now the USA is trying to teach us morales..

I wasn’t even born however my mom was a big fan of her and she still is.
Awesome

Why did you ruin video with background music?
Those Muppets really meant a lot to Jim Henson.
When I think of Simon Garfunkle, I think of Scarborough Fair and Sound of Silence. That's it. The rest is completely forgettable for me. I don't know if it's a cultural thing. I'm not American by birth nor am I from European heritage. Very very few pop songs have global appeal.
How am I 57 years old and just now heard about this?
Thank you for this video!❤
Cantinflas is an idol in all latin america

It’s such a beautiful art, one can buy preprinted cloth that only needs to be simply sown to make it look like a quilt. Some of these should be archived to show the future of our wasted society.
A romantic yet struggle prone art.
This would be fantastic but the camera work is awful. Quickly scanning over everything no chance to really look
The way my jaw would drop if I got to work with those magic Ruby read slippers ❤ what a treasure
I was listening to this on my Benz in 1886! Good times! jk
Gosh she’s beautiful!
I wish there was a Class of 3000 version for kids.
Jazz is a genre you put on if you live in an apartment in a busy urban area. It blocks out the souds around so you can relax... prove me wrong...
I am a Nonbinary person and I think I should be able to use the bathroom when I go shopping or eat at a restaurant. Some who are around don't want me to sit down and do my business where they do theirs. They refuse to use my name or my pronouns. I have soul power too. I am just as real as you are. No, I am not forcing anyone to do anything. All I want is equal rights. If you can use the facilities, wash your hands or comb your hair in front of a mirror at the gym why can't I without it being a major problem?
