Free Music Notes for Dreaming of You
Free Music Review: "I could never get used to living without you"
Hit: 4 Stars
After seeing the touching biopic of her life, I was interested in learning more about Selena. I read books on her, read biographies about her on the internet, saw interviews on YouTube, and, of course, listened to her music. "Dreaming of You" was one of the first albums by Selena that I purchased and I listened to it repeatedly. Did I listen to her music because I felt obligated to because she was killed? Yes and no. I felt such remorse after seeing the movie, but when I listen to her music, I truly enjoy it a whole lot. This chanteuse had a lot of personality in her voice, not to mention, she helped an "A" in Spanish! There are a few ballads, mid-tempos, and even some up-beat numbers here. She was chiefly a Tejano artist, but there are many tinges of R&B on this album. It's not hard to tell that Jennifer Lopez was heavily influenced by her.
The song "Dreaming of You" is terrific, but, somewhat eerie and haunting. This may be because they played this song in the movie just before she was murdered. The song is about having a huge crush on a male and thinking about him so much that he shows up in your dreams. The chorus, versus, lyrics, delivery and production are all stellar; this song never really gets old. "I Could Fall in Love" is also a nice song with a relaxing feel. It has hints of the Mexican sound, but there is also a large R&B influence on this mid-tempo. "Captive Heart", "I'm Getting Used to You", and "Wherever You Are" are also standout tracks. These songs are up-tempo and will have you dancing and bobbing your head uncontrollably. I absolutely love "Bidi Bidi Bom Bom!" This song is sung in Spanish, but I know all the lyrics and the complete translation! It is a very cute song and a nice way to end a great album. Some of the material here isn't that memorable. Tracks such as "Tu Solo Tu", "God's Child", and "El Toro Relajo" are decent, but far from great.
Selena did a wonderful job with "Dreaming of You." If you decide to buy it, it will get its share of play time in your CD player. Worth the money. 4 stars.
