Selena Reviews:
LOVE IT! 
2009-04-28 - Oh, what a fine entry into my Selena collection. The English tracks sound more like Latin/Freestyle than Tejano on this one, and all the others I simply love.
Reason: Freestyle was my first foray into Latin music, back in the 80's, which is where this music came from. Anyone ever heard "Enamorada de Ti" from "Ven Conmigo"? It sounds, again, like Freestyle with Spanish lyrics. And at that time I was into metal almost exclusively, but Latin music was creeping in there against my will, it was like Ebola, very, very infectious, but without the 95% mortality rate.
Well, Selena rocks, once again. Blessed Be Selena, for all time. We, your fans, treasure your memory. Your music reminds us of what we lost, but it also still brings us joy, which is what you intended all along...your eternal gift to us. And we all love you for it. Thank you, chickie.
The First Album I Ever Purchased By Selena!
2008-04-17 - Back in 1989, I was just learning to speak Spanish. At that time, I was also listening to alot of Tejano music as well. When I first heard the song "Besitos" on the radio, I was very anxious to find out who this girl was. I remember calling into the radio station to request that song over and over. I remember purchasing this album back in 1989 on vinyl(no cd's yet) and I still have to this day. I was taken by Selena's beautiful voice and charm. Other standout tracks on this album include La Bamba,Sukiyaki,and My Love...This is Selena at the start on the EMI Latin label. I have a been a fan since this album was released. Even though tragedy struck in 1995, by her shocking death. I am still a fan to this day! I attended her 2005 tribute concert Selena iVive! and it was astounding. Selena had touch far more people that she had ever imagined. This album was re-released back 2002 and with spoken linear notes. I am so glad they decided to put this on cd. Make sure you pick up a copy!
It's Grrrrreat!
2004-04-19 - I got this cd the day after Selena's birthday. I couldn't wait to hear the cd when I stuck it in I relaize that five of the songs (Tu Eres, Sukiyaki, Besitos, Tengo Ganas De Llovar and Mentiras) are on 17 super exitos which I have. Then two of the songs (My Love and La Bamba) are on the anthology. One song (Amame, Quiereme) is on live. The other three (Contigo Quiero Estar, Quiaro Ser and No Te Vayas) I do not know. My favorites are No Te Vayas it is very pretty I like how the band can blend in with Selena voice. My Love has a rock kinda feel and to me it is the only song that reminds me of the 80's. Tu Eres is one of the pretties songs on the cd besides sukiyaki.
Well you will just have to see what the rest of the songs are like by buying the cd.
One of my favourites of Selena
2003-08-22 - This album has a very pretty cover photo! Just so you know. I love this album as every song is amongst my favourite of Selena.
Tú Eres, Sukiyaki and Contigo Quiero Estar are very sweet Selena songs that very fond of. Besitos and Mentiras are catchy tejeno hits. No te vayas and La Bamba (bonus) are classic latin songs with Selenas special talent and my favourite English Selena song! - My love. This album has everything.
Selena (1989) 20 Years Of Music Limited Edition
2002-09-27 - For the first time in over a decade, this album is available on CD. This was Selena's first major album with a major label, and you can start seeing where this girl was heading. While this album is more traditional Tejano, you can catch the beginnings of when Pop began to infuse it's self into Selena's music.
Best songs on this CD are definatley: Tu Eres, Besitos, My Love, and No Te Vayas. All of these are classic examples of Selena's early days with EMI. Also, the original studio version of Amame Quiereme (which debuted on this CD) is terrific.
In addition, this Special Limited Edition re-issue includes: introduction text not found in the original version, lots of pictures from Selena's early days, La Bamba as a Bonus Track, and Spoken Liner Notes by her family and band! It is great to hear straight from her brother's and sister's mouths what it was like for them as a family to embark on this new chapter of Selena's professional career.
This is not just a fast, and cheap repackaging. It is definatley worth the re-purchase if you have the original on Tape or CD; or to purchase for the first time to discover Selena's versatile talent in her early years.
