Selena Quintanilla’s wax figure at Madame Tussauds was revealed on August 30, 2016 and all her fans rejoiced! Some even cried because that’s how much we still miss her after all this time. Just in case you aren’t familiar (pero like you should, if you’ve read any of this blog), Selena was the iconic Mexican-American singer, songwriter, and fashion designer who was also known as the Queen of Tejano music. She died tragically in 1995.

Selena’s Music is Timeless
Of all her various sounds, I’m left to wonder if you could choose a favorite or favorites. Queridos, what are your favorite Selena Quintanilla songs?
Before Google, when you couldn’t easily find the lyrics to all of your favorite songs, you had to listen to them repeatedly to learn the lyrics. I’m dating myself, yo sé pero this was how I learned most of my Spanish. Selena’s music was/is full of emotion. Sometimes that emotion was happiness. Sometimes it was sadness. A lot of times it was love. Selena’s songs were/are always easy to listen to on repeat. I listened to these songs over and over.
