not all the greatest hits.......2007-01-13

there were songs missing....great hits. greatest hits collections should have the greatest hits in them.

Outstanding collect of songs in both english and spanish from beautiful Tex-Mex tejano singer, cut down in her young prime.......2006-09-28

...by a fanatical jehovah's wit-less former
Fan Club leader. Selena was well on her way
to replacing the (phony) 'MaDonna's and
Cheryl Crow(breaths) of the world of 'Pop
Muzak', when it happened. Shows what danger
lies in the Cults. Her grave in Texas is still
mobbed with well wishers and flowers, as it
should be. Hasta luego, Princess!

The English Album-What the I'm Dreaming of You album should have been 10 years ago........2006-02-19

1. My Love-A good song though its slightly dated. It reflects the time in which it was recorded in.
2. I Could Fall In Love-A pretty song and a pretty huge hit in the late-mid-nineties.
3. Captive Heart-A sexy and fun song with a lot of passion.
4. I'm Getting Used To You-Is a pretty good song...until you get used to it. Then its just plain old good.
5. God's Child-I like the sentiment but just don't like the song so much.
6. Dreaming of You-This song was a huge hit and a fan favorite-but I'm so over it.
7. Missing My Baby-Another good song that is slightly dated. It totally has the early nineties vibe to it.
8. Wherever You Are-A song which was made so cool back in the day by the merging of the then hot band Barrio Boyz and a leaving her band behind Selena. The video for this song screams 90s!
9. Only Love-The best heartbreak ballad she ever recorded that still holds up. Its a good song to listen to while you're driving and crying over a lost love.
10. A Million To One-Her best upbeat tune that still holds up.
11. Where Did The Feeling Go?-A song that while is sung beautifully now has a slightly "cheesey" sound to it.
12. Is It The Beat?-Her best dance song-slightly dated but still so much fun to listen to, so upbeat and just all around uplifting!
13. A Boy Like That-Not my favorite song from the musical and a little too goth to be enjoyable. Kind of haunting.
14. Always Mine-SPANGLISH ALERT! A song that is definetly from "those" times!
15. Don't Throw My Love Away-An enjoyable remix of 'My Love'.
16. Disco Medley: I Will Survive/Funkytown/Last Dance/The Hustle/On The Radio-Studio recordings don't do her justice. Listen to her live to know why Selena's legacy and legend live on!

Great Collection Of Selena Hits.......2006-02-03

I know that Selena fans will complain that her Cumbia hits are left off this collection, and being a hardcore Selena fan myself I would like to have seen "Bidi Bidi Bom Bom", "Amor Prohibido" "Si Una Vez" and "Como La Flor" as well as some live hits from The Last Concert of her peforming these hits, but there is only so many songs a studio can fit on to a single 80 minute Compact Disc. I personally would have included these tracks instead of "A Million To One", "Wherever You Are", "Captive Heart" or "God's Child".
However there are some very strong Selena hits presented here. I know they are ALL in English and none in spanish so the album does seem a little un-fair, but so many classic Selena songs are on here. Basically All of the songs she was planning to put on her English Debuet recorded with EMI records. You could think of this as the Finished "Dreaming Of You".
Her Two massive U.S. Radio Hits "I Could Fall In Love" and "Dreaming Of You" are included in this collection. They are her two best songs. The Radio Hits are certainlly not the only enjoyable songs on here. "My Love" is a Great R'n'B Pop song and really shows the Fly Girl side Selena opittimized so well.
This track even though short was extremely catchy, and could have been a single. "Missing My Baby" is another sparkling R'n'B tune that is kind of Lovey - Dovey and Cute. Good Song.
"I'm Getting Used To You" is another smooth track the album has to offer. Not as good as the previous two, but certainlly not a bad song.
The Flamenco Tinged "Always Mine" is a fun track that will no boubt get you up and dancing. It has some Spanish language pieces in it, and sounds great. Other song to get you up and dancing are the Club Like "Is It The Beat" which is one of the albums highlights. Two other good Selena ballads are showcased here. The rarely heard R'n'B ballad "Only Love" and early love song attempt "Where Did The Feeling Go" were previously unreleased on a Selena album, and make this compilation a real keeper. Selena's tribute to the "West Side Story" Soundtrack "A Boy Like That" which is a smooth Groove Ballad is also included here, so overall though this album Offers none of her Cumbia hits it has plenty of Tejano, and Mainstream Hits. I reccommend buying this over "Dreaming Of You" anyday, because this gives you a lot more for your money, and is definetly worth it. If You want some of Selena's Cumbia Rhythms I suggest purchasing "Selena - Live" or "Unforgettable - The Live Album" because Selena's Cumbia Songs are always heard best when she sings live, because the intensity and Rhythm is captured and these albums show Selena's true talent as a performer. This is one of Selena's best Compilations and has plenty to offer for any Selena fan. It is a Must Own.

Selena.......2005-09-07

My dear peers I think you should listen to Selenas songs and CD's. The songs she sings are so full of meaning that it captivates you to keep on listening. I think her songs are great because they say alot of things about her and about many peoples feelings.I hope you like to listen to her songs.

Released three months after her murder in 1995, Dreaming of You introduced the Tejano queen to the mainstream pop audience. Four new tunes recorded with producers Keith Thomas and Guy Roche envisioned Selena as a dance-pop diva similar to Janet Jackson or Mariah Carey, but with a Latin twist. Far more arresting are the two classic mariachi numbers and a bilingual duet with David Byrne recorded for the movie Don Juan DeMarco, in which Selena had a bit part. The contrast between her passionate invitation to "come dance with me" and Byrne's nerdy white-guy delivery indicated her wide-open creative potential. The rest of the album consists of remixes of Selena's Latin-pop hits, including a masterful version of "Techno Cumbia" that bring out the hip-hop and reggae flavors in the groove. The tragedy was that such a promising introduction also served as a sad farewell. --Rick Mitchell

excellent selena.......2007-05-07

This CD is so good that I need to order another one for my house because I have a hard time removing it from my car. It is excellent!!!!!!!!!!!!

Dreaming of You.......2007-01-11

Selena is a special artist in my life, her singing is heavenly, exciting and full of spirit. Her talant is truely a gift from God. This CD is perfectly balanced to me, the selection of songs are outstanding.

My Feelings for Selena.......2006-05-29

I loved Selena the first time I heard her music.I feel that Selena is still alive but she isn't.I feel the same way about my sister,my mom,and my brother.I feel that they are still here.Me and my sister were very huge fans of selena even though I didn't know her until I was about [...].I will be her biggest fan forever.

Selena Was On Her Way .......2006-03-30

Selena was in fact on her way to being a huge star in the English market.I Could Fall In Love and Dreaming Of You still remain 2 of my favorite songs of all time.Other highlights to the album include Missing My Baby,Captive Heart,and I'm Getting Used To You.....Also with album being released a few months after her death....She was the first latin artist to have an album debut #1 on the American charts and also selling over 4 million copies....Her dream had finally come true....I Could Fall In Love was the first single and it made the Top 10.....Make sure you pick up a copy of this album

Selena - Always Remembered.......2005-12-15

I did not become a Selena fan untill I saw the movie with Jennifer Lopez in it. I heard the song "Dreaming Of You" and IT IS THE MOST BEAUTIFUL SONG EVER MADE !!!
I won't say much but buy this album, or "Selena-Greatest Hits" or "Selena-The Original Motion Picture Soundtrack".
You will not be sorry. I also heard Jennifer Lopez sing "I Could Fall In Love" in her Puerto Rican concert and that song is also beautiful. There has never been songs like these before Selena, and nobody could or can do it better then Selena.
She truly was a beautiful and pure person, and listening to her beautiful songs will surely comfort you. She also does GREAT Cumbia Melodies. Anyone who picks up a Selena album will be glad they did, and I feel blessed I have been lucky enough to hear some of this late singers work. I know that once you hear these songs you will become a huge Selena fan, and Treasure her Music and carry it with you in your life ALWAYS. I know I certainly will.

This third compilation of Selena's material is hyped by EMI officials as being a complete collection of her biggest hits. It is no exaggeration. All 16 tracks are hits, and the disc includes her biggest numbers, such as "Amor Prohibido," "Como la Flor," and "Bidi Bidi Bom Bom." The CD features her English-language hits as well: "I Could Fall in Love," "Dreaming of You," and "Missing My Baby." There's also "Disco Medley Pt. II (Last Dance/The Hustle/On the Radio)," recorded live at the Houston Rodeo. Selena and the band sound sharp and on the money. "On the Radio" impacts in particular, through its lyrics about love conducted in secret--a situation that applied to Selena and her guitarist Chris Perez before they were married in 1992. --Ramiro Burr

JUST AWESOME.......2006-03-30

Been year and half since someone put down a comment, so I will. I remember when I came home one day in Germany and my mum telling see saw on Galavision that a mexican singer was murdered by a fan. I asked her the name but she couldn't remember. I didn't think of it anymore until the day I went to the video store and saw a cover with Jennifer Lopez and the name Selena written on it. Immediatly I knew that that was the singer my mum told me about couple of years before. Took the film home and to be honest I didn't know what to expect. I just fell in love with Selena's music and with Selena as well, she seemed to be a great person to be around with. This was my first Selena CD and I don't regret of ever buying it cause it's just great. "No me queda mas" is my favourite. I must say I really don't like to hear Selena singing in english, don't get me wrong the songs are good, it's just that when I hear her singing in spanish, her voice comes out so strong and passionate, it's just beautiful. So everyone who wants to get to know Selena, this cd is the best! Get this one first and then the others... or just get them all at the same time, you won't regret it!! Selena, you're always in our hearts...

well this is really great!.......2004-09-01

Well I have to say this is probably her best album to get if you want both spanish and inglish hits this one just about has them all the popullar ones that is. I must say I was veary dissapointed in her other album titled her greatest hits only because it has all her inglish hits on one cd and I mean all of them. They don't skip one and you see thats what I thought wasent right her spanish stuff was really good to, infact her spanish songs like the ones on this cd those are her real hits the inglish wasent till later I just think they should have mabe thought about her spanish hits as well, and made a cd with all of them on it like the songs (Besitos and Tengo Ganas De Llorar). those are not even all the ones I wanted theres more then that but I have to say this cd has most of them but I still think they should make a greatest hits of all her spanish to. I mean it's like I said that is the real selena thats what she is known for is her spanish hits! Thats what really got her where she would have still been right now. I like you alot selena I miss you and I just whant poeple to remember that you have spanish songs that are really good to, not just your inglish. So get this cd it is the best deal you will be able to find cause other wise all her hits are scattered around on many of her other cds, and why hastle buying all of them when you can buy this one. It is a great cd and as for her greatest hits well....! shame! I "pitty" that one lets put it this way I only give it a 1 mabe to 3 star other then that no comment!

Brilliant!!!.......2004-01-04

I saw the film Selena for the first time this past November and immediately fell in love with her. I went out and bought this CD and i must say it's great. Before i bought this cd the only Selena song i knew of was Dreaming of You and now i know them all. I really can't fault any song on this album and in my opinion her Spanish songs are the best(even though i can't understand all the words). Como La Flor, Amor Prohibido, No Debes Jugar and Bidi Bidi Bom Bom are my fav!

R..I.P to the best tejano singer in the world.......2003-09-01

All of these Selena hits are the best.There are no words to describe it.The songs I like are Dreaming Of You, Como La Flor,I Could fall In Love, Disco Medley, and Missing My Baby.R.I.P Selena

Love it!.......2003-07-02

The reason why I love this album is because of the live track and for the first time we can hear the opening song to the live last concert because on the soundtrack the broke the song up into two parts. I didn't like that so when I found out that the whole song was on this album I was so happy. The other songs on here are good but I love it because of the live track.

Released in March 1994 exactly a year before Selena would be shot and killed by her ex-fan club president, this CD demonstrates a band at the peak of its creative force. The hits were obvious--the eloquent "Amor Prohibido," on love conducted in secret, and "Bidi Bidi Bom Bom," a magical pop tune that could work in any dance club. "Cobarde" and "El Chico" were easy cumbias to like; "Fotos y Recuerdos" was an ironic message on having only photographs and memories left. But highly underrated was the lovely and stoic "No Me Queda Mas," on facing the end, yet keeping a sense of dignity and self-worth. --Ramiro Burr

Customer Reviews:

A final masterpiece!.......2006-11-05

***** "Amor Prohibido" The first single and title track which hit # 1 in 1994 on the Hot Latin Billboard Charts. A great song and video. Beautiful melody and lyrics. This song actually tells the real life story of Selena's grandparents who in fact lived a "Forbidden Love".

***** "No Me Queda Mas" Her final video in which Selena wears her now famous white beaded gown which she also wore to the Grammy awards earlier in the year (1994). A beautiful song with powerful vocals and lyrics. A very heartfelt and romantic ballad. One of the best songs Selena ever recorded. Because of the success of the album "Amor Prohibido" (which sold over 400,000 copies before her death) EMI - Latin / Captial records re-released the album and included a re-recorded version of "No Me Queda Mas".

*** "Cobarde" A true Tejano song! Telling it how it is when a man is cowardly.

***** "Fotos Y Recuerdos" A cover of The Pretenders classic hit "Back On The Chain Gang". Although it reached # 1 a week after her murder it was obvious that this would have been the follow up single to "No Me Queda Mas".

**** "El Chico Del Apartamento 512" A major hit on the charts with very funny and silly lyrics.

***** "Bidi Bidi Bom Bom" The follow up single to "Amor Prohibido" which was actually penned by Selena. Original performed in 1993 in English for the concert "Selena Live" but did not appear on the album. This song was very popular with children because of the catchy chorus.

*** "Techno Cumbia" This song gained more attention when it was remixed and released in 1995 on the posthumous multi platinum album "Dreaming Of You" in which it appeared as a Reggae version.

*** Tus Desprecios" One of the only Tejano sounding songs on the album. A reminisce of classic Selena hits such as "Mentiras" and "Ven Conmigo".

**** "Si Una Vez" A very successful song and fan favorite. Mixing Mariachi and Cumbia all into one.

***** "Ya No" Although this song only briefly danced onto the Billboard Charts it is still a great song. It was remixed for the # 1 album "Siempre Selena".

Selena's Best Album .......2006-03-30

Selena is a true artist of the people.While working on her English language album she decided to put out this album.I am glad Selena Y Los Dinos put this out because it spawned the most hits...Every song on this album was a radio hit.It reached #1 on the Latin charts and stayed #1 for 53 weeks and it was a success...It reached #29 on Billboard 200 and achieved 2 platinum status.There is not a song on here I don't like

1. Amor Prohibido
This is an amazing track.This was a #1 smash for Selena and still played on the radios today.
2. No Me Queda Mas
A true latin classic.This song is amazing.I never get tired of hearing it.Everytime I hear it..I feel like I am hearing it for the first time.
3. Cobarde
A radio hit song.She sang this one live at the Astrodome concert in 1995.It's a great song.
4. Fotos Y Recuerdos
Ah.This would have to be my favorite track on the album.The song was taken from the Pretenders hit "Back In The Chain Gang" but of course Selena did a much better job.This a true latin classic.
5. El Chico Del Apartamento 512
Hit after hit..This a great song.A song that you never get tired of hearing.
6. Bidi Bidi Bom Bom
Who doesn't know this song?This a true Selena signature song.It was a #1 smash for Selena and I still hear it on radio stations today.
7. Techno Cumbia
Selena took a new way to her music.Selena is sort of raping in this song.The song came out great and I think would of continued her music in this type.
8. Tus Desprecios
This is a great song.Selena still shows she has her Mexican influences in her.
9. Si Una Vez
Ah.This is another favorite of mine.This is an amazing song and was another #1 smash for Selena.It's also a diffirent sound.
10. Ya No
Good way to end the album.This was a major radio hit.This is an amazing song and her first basically to have heavy metal guitar break downs.

Make sure you pick a copy up of this album.You Won't Regret It!

selena.......2005-08-28

Everytime I hear Selena I think I might cry. This cd is perfect. RIP Selena.

One of the best albums ever...........2005-08-03

This is one of those rare albums where I've been able to enjoy every single song....eleven years after its original release. This is a bonafide classic. Selena is the best!

Sorry To selenas family memeber and to her fans.......2003-08-06

I thought that it was tradgic on what yolanda salvidor did to selena... And if it wasnt for her selena would be on top still to this day... and even though shes dead she still is... She will live on forever in music as people put it... I just couldnt imagine what it would be like to loose a sister, a daughter, and a wife... all do to the fact that she had to be selfish and greddy like she was... And I Think that J.lo jennifer lopez and Selena strike a strong resemlence and they talk and laugh just like one another... its so wierd ...I watch "Selena the movie" on v-h1 on tv whenever its on... Well thats all that i have to say for now... Sorry for your loss i know it must be hard to loose someone... Terra

SELENA IS THE BEST.......2003-05-25

SHE STILL IS THE QUEEN OF MUSIC NO ONE IS BETTER THAN HER AND SHE IS NOT PHONY LIKE THE OTHER SINGERS

A TESTAMENT TO SELENA'S DREAMS.......2003-04-29

Not many albums completely encompass a singer's full potential or talent, and "Dreaming Of You" is an exception. Selena's final English recordings are a brilliant testament to what might have been, what should have been.

Abraham Quantinilla, as we all know, is a brilliant man (and a brilliant sales-man), and when he put this record together he did so with great care. Along with such Selena classics as "Dreaming of You" and "I Could Fall In Love", he remastered and remixed some of her old tracks to make them more accessible to a new generation. With such firey songs as "Captive Heart" and "Techno Cumbia", he mixes in light hearted love songs such as "Bidi Bidi Bom Bom" and "Missing My Baby". He covers Selena's entire heart-felt range from sugary love ballads, up-tempo cumbias, the classica, to tearful mariachi's, really showcasing Selena's vocal talent. One of the most striking tracks, "God's Child", is both haunting and melodic as Selena's searing vocals soar next to David Baird's enthusiastic guitar and gritty voice. While the new Spanglish version of "wherever you are" just seems to be clever re-packaging, it feels kind of empty knowing it was re-recorded without the help of Selena.
The vocal promise of this rising young star is completely visible in the record. It is both saddening and uplifting as the best track, the title track, hits the speakers. Although it's probably not intended to be, this is a bittersweet melody that is both light-hearted and tender...and one of Selena's best songs. This album is one of greatness, and should be owned by any true Selena fan.

Tejano star Selena's death hasn't stopped label executives from releasing material or fans from snapping it up. According to the EMI Latin label, 1996's Siempre Selena features the last of her previously unreleased songs, "Siempre Hace Frio." The lavish, three-disc Anthology, however, is a must-have for its glimpses of Selena honing her vocal skills and sharpening her talent. Divided under the headers "Pop/English," "Mariachi," and "Cumbia," the set showcases hard-to-find early material and hits, including a club remix of the Diane Warren-penned "I'm Getting Used to You" and a disco-flavored take on "La Bamba." The liner notes offer background information on every song, and these discs also underscore the talents of Selena's brother, A.B. Quintanilla III. He gives many of the older tracks ("Dame Tu Amo," "Salta la Ranita") fresh arrangements that match the energy of Selena's more recent material. --Joey Guerra

Selena....una leyenda para siempre...........2004-09-16

Though, I didn't start listening to the beautiful, soulful, talented and incomparable Selena until after she died as a result of the bullet from the gun of Yolanda Saldivar, she will always be alive in my heart.

This 3 CD collection is a great cross-section of the styles Selena added plenty of sabor (flavor) to. These are just a few of her many hits....I don't think three CDs is nearly enough room to capture all of the beautiful melodies she recorded and interpreted for us, her loving audience. Here, we have Pop, Mariachi and Techno Cumbia (a very popular genre in Tex Mex and Mexicana music).

Though, I am not a huge fan of techno, Selena made me want to listen to it anyway. The first CD is filled with pop songs that could definitely carry you over to the dance floor. The best songs on this album are "La Bamba" and "Yo Fui Aquella." This is because they best capture the lively energy Selena added to both old pop hits ("La Bamba") and original ranchera ("Yo Fui Aquella"). The other songs also have this energy, but in my opinion these two are outstanding tunes.

The Mariachi album, on the other hand, feels like the heartbeat of the Mexican musical experience and is a great introduction for people new to this genre and a real treasure for those who have loved these songs for generations (as well as the new material written especially for Selena). What amazes me the most is Selena's versatility--even at a young age--to capture the emotions and tone of these songs even at the tender age of fourteen. This is especially apparent in the songs "Raima Caida" and "Quiero Estar Contigo."

The third and final album is filled with totally fun techno cumbia tunes that will get your feet moving even if you have never danced to this type of music before. My favorite songs (which are also filled with fun lyrics--for all of you Spanish speakers) are "Salta La Ranita" and "Baila Esta Cumbia."

Enjoy this album! Keep the spirit of Selena alive.

A monument.......2004-08-26

Selena will forever live on through her music, and this boxed set of her best shows why. More than just a tribute to the slain star who was so cruelly taken from us, it's a salute to the talent of her band. A.B. Quintanilla's musical genius is evident as well as Suzette's fabulous drumming and Chris Perez's signature guitar on these tracks. A must have for Selena fans, and even those who don't understand Spanish will enjoy dancing along! Muy bueno!

A unique Popurrí... Como el pétalo que se ha cayó.......2004-06-06

what with all the hype and fuss, praise and criticism surrounding this anthology, i really don't see how you can find fault: this album, though not definitively, because inevitably songs had to be omitted, is still nevertheless, the life of Selena: besides, if you feel this collection isn't authentic or definitive enough, there are plenty of her other songs available in numerous compilations, and in their original, un-remixed form. i think this album purposely omits some of the more obvious hits because they are already quite known and available on nearly every album of hers in some form or another. i think with anthology, her family wanted to create an unusual bouquet, one that would come as a surprise, albeit a welcome one, to fans, and possess a unique fragrance this album does. i am so glad the Quintanilla's have made this, even if many claim that everyone's just "jumping on the bandwagon" to make yet MORE money off of Selena's death- how cliché! if your daughter, who possessed an infinite ocean of talent exuding magnetism, radiance, unfathomable depth, and earth-shaking soul and passion, and brought joy to so many people, had her life taken away, you'd want to keep her memory alive, too. if not for yourself, than certainly for the fans, and what better way to do that than through re-creating and re-producing her music?? i personally, as one of many millions of her fans, cannot complain, i can only be comforted by the fact that a new compilation is released in her name each year, because in a strange sort of way, it does have a comforting effect on you, almost as if she is still alive, because selena was one of those rare people who radiated every bit of her energy, which translated through her voice to the audience, whether in recording or in live performance- she was that incredible. so to have a new piece of her musical legacy, is like keeping her flame burning- and no matter what the occasion, any album of hers is a joy to hear. with this particular reincarnation, "anthology", it helps the listener catch a rare glimpse of the singer in her early years as well as her most recent ones- yes some of her classics take on new and different forms, but it's still the same selena, spirit and all, and every song is like a rose petal. at first, the succession of songs from each disc to the next took some getting used to, because everything is so strikingly different as evidence for the immense versatility which she possessed, but then i came to realize that each piece, whatever the color, whatever the emotion it painted for you, turned out to create a beautiful rainbow- a soundscape for all the colors of her life, past and present, and then this album seemed to become a seamless masterpiece embodying the bright star that Selena was and still continues to be, for even in death, she is alive.

Selena get's box set of songs.......2003-07-02

This has to be the coolest collection of Selena songs yet to date. Why because this has some rare Selena songs and ones that we all love and know and I think that is pretty cool. It might coast a lot but it's worth your money to buy something so rare like this because we might not get something like this again. Thanks for bring the fans something we can enjoys for years to come.

Silence - An Undiscovered Smash Hit!.......2007-05-12

My rating for this album is for the final track alone, "Silence", which is absolutely stunning. This track, in the hands of the right team, really could have been been a global smash hit. The lyrics, vocal performance, production and overall emotion of "Silence" are exceptional. It is amazing that four years on, such a well-written song hasn't been grabbed up by someone (or some company) wishing to cash in on this rare gem. Yes, there are other nice pop tracks on "Strip" but I never really got beyond "Silence" - it captivated me, as it will you if you listen to it. 5/5.

AMAZINGLY DELICIOUS!.......2006-12-04

I found Selena Cross quite by accident by stumbling across a sampler and I immediately ordered it ~ I am NOT disappointed with it. Her lyrics are right on the money and her voice delivers. Amazing talent. No boredom to be found on this album.

You'll thank yourself for nabbing this one.

So You Think You Can Dance The Best Music.......2005-09-03

I love this record, Selena is a true star in the mold of Dido, Sarah McLachlan and Frou Frou, why she is not a superstar is a mystery to me. I hear her music in "So You Think You Can Dance" the show hosted by Hottie Lauren Sanchez and "America's Most Talented Kids" so many people already get it, she is awesome, not to mention her version of "Down Under" on the WoMen At Work CD. Get Both these records and I promise you will want to thank me.

Sensational.......2004-03-09

i have been a Selena Cross fan for nearly a year now, and i would be hard pressed to say that the album gets old or "repetitive" by any stretch of the word. it'd be difficult to find another artist with an album as vivacious as this one.

Strip.......2003-11-09

I love this album.... the songs just get to me, sensational!
I can't reccomend it highly enough.

This girl has something very special to share, and at last,
a pop album comes along that doesn't sound like EVERYTHING ELSE! Wow.
