      It really is sad and the fact it was someone she trusted makes it so much worse. If it was just a random stranger or a case of wrong place, wrong time it would have been tragic enough but with it being who it was just makes the whole thing cut so much deeper.

    My stepdad works in film & video and I remember he’d gotten back from a shoot for this (unknown to him at the time) artist. He asked if my sister & I had heard of this Selena and I had but wasn’t familiar with her music. He was very impressed with her as a person and seemed very sure that she was about to break through. There was that vibe if you’ve ever been around that. Anyway, it wasn’t but maybe a few weeks later that she was killed. Of course she really got big after her death. So sad. I could tell from what he said, she wasn’t acting like a diva on the set. Just really cool, really nice to the crew and everyone. Just another part of her legacy. RIP!

    This isn't in my wheelhouse of music taste but I find this song incredibly emotional and well done. Her voice is amazing, the guitar parts that come in and out is done so tastfully and the bass brings a bit of the funk.

    I absolutely LOVE it when people listen to Selena for the first time, this is what will always keep her legacy alive. No matter how many years go by, her impact on the world will not go away. So with that being said, thank you both for checking out her music. I would like to request Bidi Bidi Bom Bom and Dreaming of You, aside from this song, those are two of her most popular songs.

    Once you start diving into selena music and performances, it's hard to stop. She was such a superstar and still so humble. There's a lot of great music she gave us. There are fun dance songs like la carcacha, baila esta Cumbia that are very popular. Then fierce songs like que creias, Los desprecios, Las cadenas. I cant watch como la flor without crying. There are a lot of English songs that she has too, like missing my baby, dreaming of you, captive heart, a boy like that. But its fun to watch live performances, she was and is very captivating ♡ love the reaction. This song for me is so ethereal and her voice sounds perfect on it.

  • @Elisa82694
    @Elisa82694 Před rokem +7

    Yes!! Please do more Selena!! Since you’ve done two English songs so far you have got to check out her original Spanish songs. Which is the majority of her repertoire. Her live performances were legendary and never forgotten. She was such an incredible dancer with tons of charisma and just plain love for what she did. In her short life she accomplished so much and won over the public anywhere she went. Please keep on her journey you won’t regret it. Not to mention that to Mexican Americans she was and will always continue to be a beacon for what can be if you’re yourself and give love to what you do. Definitely in line with y’all’s message, much love and keep ‘em coming 💕.

    I remember the ads for the movie about her, but I've never seen it. The video montage here is so very touching, and clearly a loving tribute to a beautiful, extraordinary young woman. I'll have to add this album to my wish list. Thanks for the reaction.

  • @mariaeveliaguerreroparker4561

    Thank you for reacting to Selena. I am one of your older fans from Texas. I started following Selena when she was 15 yrs. old and have always been a fan. I only got to see her live once in concert. It rained that sad day, March 31, 1995. The Dreaming of you Album was released posthumously. The family was waiting for her to go by the studio to record another song for it, but she never arrived. She only got to record four English songs plus one song she did with David Byrne of The talking Heads, called God's Child. She sings in Spanish while David Byrne sings in English. She improvised her part completely. It's a work of art, I highly recommend it. The rest of the album was finished with remixed Spanish songs. If you would like to here some Rock and Roll Selena, listen to the song "Ya No!". Her husband Chris Perez, guitarist and composer fell into deep depression after her death, a few years later he went back to music and into the studio and recorded his Grammy winning album Resurrection (The Chris Perez Project), where you can find the song he wrote after Selena's death called Best I Can, which I also highly reccomend.

    Along with this, Selena: The Movie would be a good one for the movie channel. J Lo in one of her first movie roles.
    This song always gives me chills. It’s just so beautiful. This album, Dreaming of You (which is another great song) was recorded weeks before she died and was released after her death.

  • @genamayhew1961

    This is probably my favorite Selena song. In her movie it showed that she wanted to sing American pop music but her father wanted her to sing in Spanish but she didn't want to because she wasn't fluent in Spanish & had to learn the language so she could sing all the songs & know what she was singing. I think she was born & raised in Texas & her parents spoke fluent Spanish. Just to show all kids don't always speak the same language as their parents. My ex-husbands mother was German & he flunked German in high-school which was embarrassing to my ex mother n law. 💔 Selena's story is so insane & heartbreaking all because of greed!

    Before you guys move on to her other songs in Spanish, ya'll should def check out "Dreaming of you". As you were able to see, the music video for this song is just compilations of her, this is because she was killed soon after recording these songs for her crossover album. They did something similar with Dreaming of you, which was also part of what was going to be her debut in the American market. A treasure for her fans.

  • @christopherphoun
    @christopherphoun Před rokem +3

    As soon as I hear Selena's voice my eyes well with tears always and I'm just so sad she was taken from us way to early. Could you imagine crossover Selena in the late 90's that would have been amazing to see.

    Selena is buried like 10 plots over from my grandparents down in Corpus Christi, TX. She was a powerhouse that was gone too soon.

  • @CGPOPPOOP
    @CGPOPPOOP Před rokem +2

    She had soooo much more to do in her life and after 10 years of work was finally on the brink of what she wanted all along, to be a mainstream pop artist. She grew to love Tejano but it was the family business she was kind of forced into and didn't even speak Spanish herself until she was a teenager. She could so authentically embody any genre of music she recorded and if you listen to a song like I Could Fall in Love against one of her Mariachi songs like Que Creias or any of her Tejano songs, you'd think they were completely different artists.

    There are so many wonderful Selena songs that you would adore. Check our her big hits Amor Prohibido, or Como La Flor, or her other biggest English hit Dreaming Of You. They are very accessible, very well produced, and showcase her amazing talent and voice.

  • @threezysworld8089
    @threezysworld8089 Před rokem +1

    She had such a great voice you can hear she has it in the low range all the way up to falsetto her voice is so weighty. I get what you guys say airy too yet very grounded and full.

  • @jovanym2931
    @jovanym2931 Před rokem +1

    This was from the dreaming of you album which she never got the chance to complete she had only recorded 4 songs for it before she was killed. The four songs were I could fall in love , captive heart , I’m still getting used to you , and dreaming of you . After her death her family added some remixes of previous songs and some unreleased songs, she also did the backing vocals

  • @blackpowder99
    @blackpowder99 Před rokem +4

    Selena's 🌹"No Me Queda Mas"is one of the most beautifu unrequited love songs ever but, if you're non-Spanish speaking like me you might want to find a subtitle version.

    Living in Laredo, Texas, less then 2 hours away from Corpus Christi where Selena lived, I can say we saw her a few times in person performing at one of her dances/concerts or having breakfast the next day, at one of her favorite restaurants in Laredo. She was truly down to earth, funny and loved talking with her fans.
    On a cold and rainy day, my wife and I stayed on the Shoreline in Corpus where Selena's statue had just been put up. My wife and i could see it from our 6th floor window at the Hotel. I told my wife in Spanish, "poor Selena, she is out there in the cold and rain" and my wife started sobbing because we saw her in person at least 10 times. Now just a memory in the cold and rain.
    She was an excellent performer, who sang, danced but most importantly, connected tremendously with her fans, both on and off stage.

    Selena has music that makes you feel every emotion. From true love and happiness to heartbreak and everything in between. She even covered Janet Jackson and Michael Jackson and various other 80' artist. Selena was beautiful inside and out. She would talk to kids about staying in school and reward some of them by taking them to McDonald's. She was humble and loved her fans. She didn't see herself as a huge star. She will always be the Queen of Tejano music. You don't have to understand Spanish she had a way of making you feel what she is singing. Dive in to her music I promise you will love her music.
