Reviewer: Mayhem Mario 17:30, 8 July 2011 (UTC) I felt sorry for this article to have been waiting all this time, i've decided to review it. I have to admit I dont no anyhting about this song or topic, so it is all new to me (completley out of my comfort zone).
"Si Una Vez" (English: If Once) is a song by Mexican-American Tejano pop singer Selena. It was released as the fifth single from her album Amor Prohibido (1994). The song was written and produced by Pete Astudillo, A.B. Quintanilla III and Bebu Silvetti. It was released in the United States for the Tejano and rhythmic contemporary radios, while becoming a promotional single in the United States and Mexico. It was first intended for Astudillo's debut album, but was later given to Selena to record. Becoming a progressive cumbia with experimental music that incorporates both Mariachi and Rancheras, the single quickly climbed to number-four on Billboard's Latin Regional Mexican Airplay chart.
The song, according to Billboard, is one of Selena's signature songs. While winning the BMI Pop Music Award in 1994 for "Song of The Year", the song became the second song, behind "No Me Queda Más", to be written out-of-emotions from Selena's band Los Dinos. Selena promoted the song during her Amor Prohibido Tour, the song was included in every venue. Si Una Vez was given mostly positive reviews, Good Housekeeping magazine stated that, "Si Una Vez is an admirable and convincing song you have to listen to when dealing with jerks!", while Texas Public Radio said it "resonates best" with South Texas. Being covered by many artists, the most notable cover version was Manny Manuel, whose version peaked at number-one on the U.S. Latin Tropical Airplay on Billboard. Within a year of its release, Si Una Vez was certified Gold by the CAPIF, in Argentina.
Do you get what I mean? Maybe try and limit them down. :)
Si Una Vez was first written by Pete Astudillo, who was dumped by his girlfriend, Astudillo, out of emotions, began writing down his feelings towards the break-up. [1]
Instead: While the song was produced, it became the second song to be written out-of-emotions from Selena's band Los Dinos, only behind, "No Me Queda Más" (English: There's Nothing Left For Me). It was written by Ricky Vela after falling in love with Suzette Quintanilla and finding out that she had a husband[2][3].
Good Housekeeping interviewed Selena's family during their August 1995 issue, they also told subscribers that "Si Una Vez is an admirable and convincing song you have to listen to when dealing with jerks!"[11] You should change it to: Good Housekeeping told subscribers that "Si Una Vez is an admirable and convincing song you have to listen to when dealing with jerks!"[11] And get rid of the family rubbish.
In general the article seems okay, except quite a few fixs of grammar, addtion of words and rewording sentences, nothing to much. :) There is no way the article can be passed until that is addressed. Most of the issues are stylistic, you can take my suggestions, reword it yourself, or leave it if you disagree with me. I am placing this article on hold for seven days, feel free to ask if you need me to clarify any of my comments. Good luck! Mayhem Mario 17:30, 8 July 2011 (UTC)
which was written by Ricky Vela after falling in love with Suzette Quintanilla and finding out that she had a husband.[2][3] Can you re-write it? Maybe: which was written by Ricky Vela. The song was based on how Vela fell in love with (a girl called) Suzette Quintanilla, though found out she had a husband. Seems better (just need to copy and paste that). In the new version the part where I put (a girl called) im only putting that there as if she is notable it is not needed, if not it is needed. Mayhem Mario 09:11, 9 July 2011 (UTC)
