Most of America first learned of Selena because of her tragic murder; accordingly, the posthumous Dreaming of You was the first record they ever heard. While it isn't her best -- Amor Prohibido is a more consistent release -- it was an effective introduction and showed why she was so beloved among Tejano fans. Her English tracks on the album are no different than her Spanish tracks. Selena was essentially a singer much like her idol, Madonna. She was able to sing ballads and dance-pop convincingly. Dreaming of You would have been a stronger album had she lived, but it still stands as a powerful -- and touching -- testament to her talents.
