Free Music Review: Selena Ones - The best of the compilation CDs....
Hit: 5 Stars

I am disappointed that this is the 3rd really big compilation album of Selena, and still "Ven Conmigo" has not been on any of them. Instead, No Quiero Saber has been included on all of them repeatedly. Granted, that song is great but give it a slight rest and include another #1 hit that has been neglected.

Track # 20 "Con Tanto Amor" is really terrific. Amor Prohibido, Si Una Vez and Como La Flor sound awesome as ballads. Selena's label should really consider mixing more songs and make a "Selena The Remixes" CD, becuase I think that is as close as fans are going to get to getting something new of Selena.

The DVD varies in quality as previously stated, the older videos are not as good looking as the newer ones. But the Dolby Digital 5.1 Surround Sound is incredible to listen to. The DVD also includes a small photo gallery, and a 20 Years Of Music Collection Promo spot.

The fact that this is Selena's 3rd or 4th hits release, and STILL becomes a best seller (It's the Hot Shot Debut Album as of 10/15) is testament to the fact that people still have a connection and respect for Selena's work that has not gone away in the 8 years since her passing. The messages of her songs are real, fun when appropriate, and timeless so time will not make them go away.

This continuing support for her music from the people is really astonishing. Also equally astonishing is that she continues to outsell virtually all still living Tejano artists who produce new material with her compilation albums by a considerably large margin. This proves that Selena had the highest cross over potential to other musical markets that most other Tejano singers could only dream of.

Being a fan since before her untimely death, this collection brought back a lot of nostalgic memories of when the songs first came out. Selena was definatley a good representative of all types of Latin music, not just Tejano. The impressive range of genres on this collection solidifies this fact.
