    I think she sang about 13 songs dancing in heels. No costume changes no water. She had a lot of stamina. Never looked tired. She was such a humble down to earth sweet person. That troll that took her life is now sitting in prison with her name, forever linked to Selena. I hate watching her walk off the stage because she’s got a little bit of a month to live. She told the audience that she would see them again soon at the end before the fireworks. Just a loss that I can’t get over. I like to think of her as frozen in Time forever at 23.

      Brings back memories as a high school Spanish teacher.
      The Nashville area was short on teachers.And I was (gulp!) pressed into service.
      I got through several years, relying on grammar, commands and lots of Latin culture.
      Selena's music still gives me chills. That concert at the Astrodome was fire!
      The Selena movie drew me in .
      Then getting to know the real Selena was extra special.
      Beauty and talent.
      One of my top pics for the classroom was Bidi Bidi Bom Bom
      ( Best translated as 'Pitty pat')
      My personal favorites are Como La Flor and I Could Fall in Love.
      Thanks to you guys for doing this !
      I'll be listening to Selena on my way home today.

    I think what made Selene truly special is the fact that she grew up as an American and eventually dove into making Hispanic music. It’s a beautiful blend of two cultures which made her sound very unique. Her heavy inspirations were actually American singers like Madonna and when you add in the flair of Hispanic music, you get what Selena was

    "Como La Flor" translates in English to "like the flower". In this song, Selena is comparing losing a love to "like the flower" dying.
    Another good one from her is "Bidi,Bidi Bom Bom".

    Please please please react to Selena, the movie about her life starring Jennifer Lopez as Selena.
    This takes me straight back to the mid 90s. I still know every word to every song on the Dreaming of You CD, even though I don't speak Spanish. (Though I wish I could, it's a beautiful language.) I think you would really like Techno Cumbia. It's a fun, fast-paced song that's a fusion of several different genres from several different cultures.
    A couple of good Selena songs that are a mix of Spanish and English lyrics are God's Child (Baila Conmigo) and Wherever You Are (Donde Quiera Que Estes.) I think you'd like both of those a lot. God's Child has a heavy bongo beat that I have a feeling Jay would be into.

      @@drc1989 Well, strictly speaking, if we were going to be very precise, wouldn't we call it ""Tejano? I mean, it isn't "Mexican from Mexico," after all - even though it was huge over most of the Spanish-language world.
      I agree that "Hispanic" is sort of too large a term and, frankly, I've never heard it used in relation to music.
      Would you say Gloria Estefan's Mi Tierra is Cuban even though it is technically not from Cuba? Most people would, I think. At least most of the Mexican-Americans I know would.
      Instead of "Hispanic," the term "Latin" used to be used generally to indicate all music in Spanish (by us white folks LOL). Is there still the Latin Grammies? Anyway, we should try to use more precise terms to give credit to the country where the style originated (if not where the actual band and song originated), but please know that our hearts are in the right place - even though we might not know the name of the place!

    I was there at the Astrodome for that show during the Houston Livestock Show and Rodeo. She, like all the other musical artists was brought into the arena aboard a white carriage. She ascended the revolving circular stage and performed to a record sized audience. She beat out acrs like Elvis, Barry Manilow and George Strait! After all thise shows it was common for fireworks to be activated INSIDE the Adtrodome! As she departed the stage, she again boarded the long white, horse drawn, carriage and paraded around the grounds again before finally leaving so the rodeo could continue and finish. It is a common misconception that was her last concert. It was her last BIG show but she performed several small club shows afterwards. Two weeks after the big show, being a Houston area deputy Constable, I was assigned to her protection detail at another local club concert. It was drizzly and cold that night and I placed my patrol jacket because as we walked from her bus around the back of the to a service service, she shivered in her typical close fitting costume. Afterwards she gave me an autographed photo. She was murdered just two weeks later. My favorite song of hers is "No me queda más." It is a song of heartbreak and she filmed in the classic Mexican fashion while wearing an evening gown and with her hair up. She was a truly a classic beauty. I hope y'all will watch the video I suggest.

    I've never seen a reaction to Selena before, and now I know why. I cried the whole time. One of the most amazing things about Selena was how she touched you personally. I always felt part of her family thanks to the movie and her music. Her fans were front and foremost her #1 priority outside of her blood family. The fact that someone that she thought was a friend, stole money from her fans was the most hurtful thing to her and she paid the ultimate price for calling Yolanda out for it. She will be sorely missed buy her fans (including this old white woman from Oklahoma). Selena was a pure heart and a pure spirit and this world is less without her.

      Stunning! She was absolutely beautiful! That smile of hers was so captivating, and her laughter was infectious! So down to earth. Humble, sweet and a wonderful human being. Tragically her life was cut short, way too soon…💔🙏✝️🌹🕊️

    It still makes my heart ache to see her in old videos. She truly was an icon, and a beautiful person. She LOVED her fans and appreciated everything that came her way. She changed the way that Americans viewed Hispanic music. I can only imagine where life would've taken her :(

    Great reaction video. I miss Selena so much. Continue remembering her. Nothing but tears comes to my eyes when I watch Selena. I was there at the Houston astrodome back in February 26,1995. She broke the attendance record that day over many artists such as George strait and Michael Jackson. I was 15 years old at the time. Truly missed but never forgotten 😢❤😢❤

    I was a metal head as a teen and my sister was a huge fan so i was inadvertently exposed to her music. While the genre wasnt my thing, there was no denying her vocal range and musical talent, she skyrocketed in fame in the 90s and became a latino icon who is still beloved to this day. The queen of Tex mex, a shame that her life was cut short by someone she trusted and who was jealous all along. Selena was also a knockout, one of the most beautiful latinas of her time, with the perfect coca cola bottle latina figure. She deserves all the adolation she recieved.

    Selena was a HUGE Janet Jackson fan, she even owned and performed in the same leather jacket that JANET performed in at the Grammys in 1987 so she modeled alot of her performances after JANET's stage show and even covered JANET's "Black Cat" and When I Think Of You " in her live performance ❤😢🎉

    When I heard about Selena being murdered, I had never even HEARED of her. I'm in the Anglo world. Then I saw a picture of her, and she looked so beautiful. She had done some special on one of the Spanish TV channels, so out of curiosity, I watched it. They were all speaking Spanish, and I had no idea what they were talking about, but Selena seemed very nice and friendly, and when they showed a couple of her song videos, I realized the world had lost someone very talented and special. I wish she were still with us. 😔

    Thank you truly appreciating the PHENOMENON that is Selena. The whole world loved Selena and even so I will always scream out how underrated she is. To be that huge at such a young age is almost unheard of, and she had so much more ahead of her. A true definition of a music legend and natural talent. I don’t think I will ever be able to get over her death but I will always be grateful for the life we got to experience from her. So grateful for Selena for ever and always ❤️🌹

    Yes, Selena's voice is incredible, slightly husky and with really crisp modulation, a really nice voice. As well as she speaks and sings in Spanish here, English was her first language when she was a child in Texas and she had to learn to speak Spanish in order to sing the Tejano music her family's band played. Another excellent Spanish singer whose first language was English and who y'all have done before is Linda Ronstadt. Another of Ronstadt's traditional Mexican songs that y'all should do is "La Cigarra."
