Selena // Dreaming Of You ♥

On March 31,1995 the world lost one of their brightest young stars! Selena Quintanilla-Perez was shot & killed at the Days Inn motel in Corpus Christi by the former president of her fan club Yolanda Saldívar! Selena was shot in the back & she ran to the lobby of the motel where she named Yolanda as her shooter before she passed out on the floor of the lobby! Selena was pronouced dead at 1:05 pm! Selena died from blood loss! She was only 23 years old when she died & she was 2 weeks aways from her 24th birthday! On April 12, 1995, two weeks after her death, George W. Bush, governor of Texas at the time, declared her birthday "Selena Day" in Texas. Selena was in the middle of recording her first english album at the time of her tragic murder! Sadly, Selena only got to record 4 songs for that ablum! That album was released on July 18,1995 & it was called Dreaming of You! That album debut at #1 on U.S. Billboard 200 chart, it sold more than 330,000 units in its first week, making her the first Latin singer to accomplish this feat, and Dreaming of You the second highest debut after Michael Jackson's HIStory: Past, Present and Future, Book I. Dreaming of You has proven commercially successful, selling over 2,000,000 copies in its first year! Dreaming of You was among the "top ten best-selling debuts of all time" along with being the "best-selling debuts for a female artist", selling 175,000 copies on the very first day. In July 1995, Dreaming of You joined five of Selena's studio albums that remained on the top ten of Billboard Top 50 Latin Albums. Dreaming of You also became the highest ranking Spanish language album to chart Billboard Top Latin Albums. She was called "The Queen of Tejano music" and the Mexican equivalent of Madonna. In June 2006, Selena was commemorated with a museum and a bronze life-sized statue (Mirador de la Flor in Corpus Christi, Texas), which are visited by hundreds of fans each week! She has sold over 21 million albums worldwide! Selena will be missed & mourned for many more years to come! Her memory lives through her family,friends,fans & music! RIP Selena Quintanilla-Perez! You will always be the Queen of Tejano & no one can take that away from you!

THE WORLD DIDN'T LOSE ONE OF IT'S BRIGHTEST STARS ON MARCH 31ST, 1995 - IT LOST THE ABSOLUTE BRIGHTEST! SELENA HAD A COMBINATION OF VOCAL TALENT, CHARISMA, AND CLASS THAT HAS NOT, AND WILL NOT, BE EAQUALLED.THANK GOD FOR THE TIME WE HAD WITH HER, AND FOR THE MUSIC AND THE MEMORIES SHE LEFT US, FOR WE WILL NOT SEE AN ARTIST LIKE HER AGAIN - HER PHISICAL PRESENCE IN THIS WORLD WAS LIKE A BEAUTIFUL DREAM THAT ENDED TOO SOON... GOD BLESS SELENA, OUR BELOVED REINA De MUSICA TEJANO!

20 yrs since her death. I don't believe in coincidences. She was meant to be on earth to inspire others. She did her job well. Now she can rest in heaven.

I'm late to the game. I just discovered how amazing she was as a person and as a performer. I get good vibes watching her perform. Pure JOY she had performing. Until we meet someday LOVE!!! 💘 💘

It’s hard to believe that 26 years have passed since we lost Selena. I often wonder what she’d be doing today if her life hadn’t been stolen from her💜

There are two songs that touch me...Aaliyah "I Miss You" and Selena "Dreaming of You." Both songs move me to tears.

Y'all how could this happen to my favourite singer in the whole world 😭😭 this song of her is making me cry so hard because I miss her so so very much with the bottom of my heart forever 🌹🌹 her laugh always makes me laugh all the time and every single day.

Selena will always be young and beautiful and the best singer I have ever heard. Her parents must be so proud to have raised such a beautiful daughter. Had my daughter watch Selena movie so she would remember our trips on our bus when I had to sing. She said she loved the memories since losing her dad who was our guitar player . We watch Selena's movies and clips almost daily.

Lovely tribute video. I was 8 when Selena died in 1995, but to this day, I still think she has the most beautiful singing voice I've ever heard. Such a sad loss to music. Her beauty and sense of style is timeless 💄💅🌹💜

[lexieann]

It’s hard to believe her life ended the way it did .. she was just so humble and down to earth I didn’t know her personally but I would’ve loved to have her as a sister or best friend she was such a funny person she wasn’t always so serious like how famous ppl are she took time with her fans she lived on the same block as her parents .. she was her own stylist she did everything.. I look at her videos sometimes and think to myself what a beautiful person .. I would’ve loved to be friends with her .. Rest In Peace angel The pain gets family feels must be horrible .. well I’m glad and I’m pretty sure everyone can agree with me on this one .. we’re happy she got to experience love .. and you could tell she loved Chris dearly and so did Chris .. the pain he feels lord be with him .. selena we miss you you’ll always be in our hearts ....

Selena, um mito, uma lenda a única e inesquecível Rainha Tex Mex. 👑👑😢😢😭😭😭🌷🌹🌺❤💖😍

[teacherrosavipkid]

Dear all, her death was not at all something that God wanted, God can't be blamed for the evil that is in man's heart. In our hearts there is appreciation for the years she lived among us. We are thankful for the beautiful songs she sang, and all she gave to her people. I think in Selina's heart is a song to inspire us all to LOVE God and to Thank Him for what He has given. The Best He has Given is His Only Beggotten Son, who died on the cross as a victim of evil men, the Only Begotten Son died so that we all can become the Many sons of God.
