The more I get into Shelly, the more I understand why Selena loved her the way she did. The story of Shelly spending the weekend and getting tonsleitus is so sweet. Selena took her to the doctors office, got her medications and made her food. Their friendship seemed so genuine and I know she misses her friend a lot 💔
Meeeee!!! I had to check her out after reading that. I like her!! They opened up a whole new world of music to me. I had never looked toward tejano music, but it's dope!
Mmmmm remember we used to have kkk107.9 puro texano here in Houston I we used to Conroe city limits see Selena, Emilio, mazz la sombra, Jaime y los chamacos Elsa García and i lot more texano groups back on the 90s.. good memories 😎🍺
I'm an Italian - American who lives in New York State who's been a HUGE Selena fan for 22 years, so I know what you mean. She's pretty much all I listen to - much better than what you hear on the radio in my part of the country these days, at least in MY opinion.
What is sad is that our radio stations refuse to play Tejano music anymore. Therefore people aren’t recording good Tejano anymore it’s all re-dos of old music.
The only people responsible for the lost of this music it’s the fans, always listening to the same old songs and never gave a chance to new generations of bands
Becaues they suck its not about talent its how much ass you can show on TV they tried to push reggaeton and that flop. if its not banda or corrido's nobody cares
Pfft Selena was for sure not the only Thani female artist. Elsa Garcia is another good one. Most young Selena fans don’t know anything about the tejano genre. If you grew up in Texas as a Mexican American like I did in the late 80s and early 90s ya know a lot more tho I suppose lol. When I was a little girl I was around this music all the time. I hated it as a kid it was the music your grandma and older people listened to at backyard bbqs getting wasted off of miller light. Now as an adult I appreciate it just for nostalgia sake Lol
@@Ash-vw4yt your right! Im from NY born and raised. But most of out family lives in TX. So we often went for vacation i mean TX was home to us too! Anyways yea Shelley is one of the good ones.. ❤
Chris Perez actually played guitar in her band for a short time before playing for Selena's band. She and Selena were friends, and they both knew that female artists in Tejano Music faced challenges that the guys didn't, so they could really relate to one another.
Ami me encanta Selena, I’m a big fan, pero también me gusta la música de las otras chicas tejanas, Shelly Lares es mi segunda favorita, you rock little miss tnt 🧨
I have met most tejano conjunto stars over my lifetime. This girl I met in Laredo TX at the Life downs Fair grounds. Very few people were there to watch the performance. Yet she gave the same performance as if the place was packed. God bless you Shelley
@@jahmeekjoseph5455 he said shes a tejano queen and she is, so is Elsa Garcia, Elida and more Selena didnt really sing tejano like SHelly which is why she got bigger and expanded to Mexico.. and after death fans like you...
@@lovethywillbedone6794we’ll selena sang a lot of tejano in her early years of her career she did a lot more cumbias in the last years of her music career
👋 buenas noches 🙂 desde México. He venido aquí, después de escuchar un poco este tema en Spotify... y me gustó mucho! Resulta que terminé de ver un video- documental en RU-vid, donde se habla de la próxima salida de la asesina de Selena Quintanilla qepd y toda la historia. Ahí, el RU-vidr, mencionó a esta artista llamada Shelly Lares, que era Selena! Su voz, canto, movimientos, todo! Y efectivamente, al ir a buscar información, me he llevado la gran sorpresa de que si no se ve su rostro, uno puede imaginar y comparar con la fallecida! Bueno, pues me gustó y ahora me pregunto solamente, quién fue primero? Shelly o selena? Hummm como sea, me gustó mucho también su canto, pero, de saber que Shelly fue primero, creo que le faltó promoción acá en Mx; porque talento lo tenía o tiene! En fin, ya tengo otra opción en música del estilo para comenzar escuchar mañana, primero Dios 🙏 Gracias 🌻 gracias 🌻 gracias 🌻
Holly crap I've been playing in a band with her drummer off and on throughout the years and just decide to look her up. LOL. He just as great back then as he is now! Go Adam!
Um... Did u ever get to meet Selena Quintanilla Perez? If so, details please?? I love hearing stuff about her. I actually became a Shelly fan through my love of Selena. But yeah if you have any stories, I'd love to hear them...
SAW HER N HER BAND IN SAN ANTONIO ARND 2017...LOVED IT...ALWAYS HV ENJOYED HER MUSIC SINCE THE NINETIES ..BLEW KISSES AND SHE THREW SOME BACK..THANX SHELLY..YOU MADE MY DAY THAT NIGHT...GOD BLESS!!.
I love this song. I remeber seeing her in when I was young. Shelly, Elsa are real special to me. I would see them at their concert wherever they were playing and afterwards they would sign shirts and albums. Also, if you asked for a kiss they would kiss you on the cheek and make a 19 year old feel special.
I don't actually speak or understand spanish. Well i understand very little but I'm a huge Selena Quintanilla Perez fan who has taught myself enough spanish to understand Selena's music. I can't help but love Shelly too though. For one she was very close friends of Selena but also because of an interview i saw of her after Selena passed away. She said that even though Selena always won every single award at the TMA's, she couldn't help but love her anyway. For one she was so sweet but for another, if she had to loose to anyone she rather loose to Selena. I've loved Shelly ever since... 💞💞
I recently found another interview of Shelley where she tells how Selena looked after once when she was sick. Even took her to doctor and went and bought her medicine. It's very sweet.. Nurse Selena who knew.. 👼
I will continue to follow Shelly if she still does music I heard of her from Chris interview in San Antonio y ten I saw Shelly talk about Selena and I was like I will follow Selena's friend and be her fan too.
Canta muy bonito yo sólo vine a VER que tal canta.. Por que vi los premios k fue dominada pero le ganó Selena ella se llevó premios.... pero.. me llamo mucho la atención su voz por eso la busque y si canta hermoso y aparte fue super amiga de Selena que MARAVILLA... Canta muy bonito.. ELLA SI LA DEBERÍAN DE DAR LAS CANCIONES DE SELEBA PARA K ELLA LAS CANTE DE TODAS POR QUE LAGO PARECIDO DE SELENA... OJALA CANTE LAS CANCIONES DE SELENA SERÍA SUPER PADRE
I remember watching the “ Johnny Canales “ show! I was a teenager! “ Take it away Johnny!!” Shhaaoow! I enjoy watching throwbacks from those years! Mucho amor desde Califas! To all mi familia living in San Anton, El Paso, Levelland,!!
My Dad Willie replaced Chris in Shellys band in the 90,s.Later in life i tattooed her at "World Famous All Star Ink Lab"in Fort Worth pun intended Shelly!hahha
Estoy aquí por leer el libro para Selena con amor de Cris Pérez, soy fan de Selena pero tengo que reconocer que la música de esta chica es muy contagiosa, yo aquí en el 2021
Said fantastic to see old tejano singers we want to see the new talent in Chicano and tejano music but the old DJs won't play them that was the downfall on the radio because they stuck in their own ways that what happened when you get old people especially DJs they won't play the new bands you have to remember we don't mind listen to Mom and Pop and Grandpa music I've been listening to tejano music back in the 60s but I used to play music too so you have to keep up all the new music like Robert plant's there from led Zeppelin remember us as we were and support the new bands can get better than that
Wow Selena and Shelly Lares took a real beating when it came to being accepted by the crowd...... Especially the men. You can see the men looking like "WTF?!"
