Will anyone ever replace the original Selena? No. However, that's not the point. She is honoring her namesake and sounded nice vocally while doing it. The reason she even recorded the studio version of the cover and performed it live multiple times was because she was asked to by the quintanilla family (specifically Selena's father.)
She was not "asked by Selena's father" to sing the song. She sang the song because 'she' wanted to honor Selena. She spoke with Selena's father, and he told her that he was sure she'd do a great job. It was nice of her to do so. However, it was a 'very' poor performance. Let's be real here. But, it was a great publicity stunt.
ella se llama selena porque su mama le puso así en honor a selena y obvio ella no es de este genero pero lo hizo bien no se porque hay gente tan despectiva
Yeah, it's not the same, but I'm so glad to see her music being sung and loved by today's generation. Selena Quintanilla-Perez was a beautiful person inside and out with an equally beautiful voice who will never be forgotten. She would be amazed to know how truly loved she still is. RIP Selena.
You are so right. Almost exactly seventeen years after her death, Selena Quintanilla Pérez remains my favorite singer of all time. There will never be another like her.
@@sarahd2787 Selena would’ve felt honored. She once said in an interview that there’s room enough for everybody. That’s just the type of woman that she was. Humble, and definitely not a diva.
I think it's wonderful that Selena Gomez is doing a tribute! Tributes are about remembering the people that the songs are about. Selena doesn't need to sing like her, because Selena was UNICA. Just like JLo when she did the Selena movie! Way to go Selena G!
2:04 i die! Gosh this was the higher note of Selena Gomez. Proof she can really sing! Peoples who cannot find that awesome should replay or go to the doctor. Great job Selena!
Pues a mi en lo personal no solo me agrada muchisimo sino que me llena de orgullo saber que una artista profesional de la talla de Selena Gomez no se averguenza de sus origenes ni mucho menos, esta conciente de lo que significa para nosotros los mexicanos el nombre de Selena y su unica intencion es darnos el placer de escucharla cantar en el idioma que tanto amamos, si eso no se merece nuestro respeto y admiracion señores no tengo ni la mas minima idea de que si pueda merecerlo Gracias y saludos
la humildad y la sinceridad cuando se presentaba con su publico .. con su jente . ella demostraba lo sencilla que era sin presumir su estatus social sobre lo demas y esto fue lo que hizo que esta bella joven se robara el corazon de sus seguidores . ademas de su belleza que deslumbrava el esenario . era la sonrisa que nunca dejaba escapar al precentarse en algun lugar esa es la selena que yo recuerdo
Selena did excellent u can see she did the song with alot of excitment look how she moves with joy while she is doing bidi bidi bom bom she deserves an A++++ just GREAT
What was the point of even commenting this!? She covered this song because she’s a fan of the woman. And there is no “real Selena”, they’re (are/were) both real and valid. Gomez was named Quintanilla and she covered this song because she was very much cultured on her as a child. She loves her, and she has/had never tried to be like Quintanilla. So this comment is very much invalid.
I am a fan of Selena Q. and I have nothing against Selena G. She did not sing it the way Selena Q. sang it but that is understandable, she is not Selena Q.
Realmente, los productores les pidieron a selena gomez que cantara la version original de quitanilla, por eso ella lo hizo con mucho honor a este publico.
Selena Gomez im pretty sure selena quintanilla would be very proud of you where ever Selena quintanilla is she well for ever be proud of what you have done for her got blass for you and Selena quintanilla soul yall two are the reasons why i well name one of my future daughter Selena..
