Johnny Rodriguez – That’s The Way Love Goes

Remembering Selena today, gone 30 years now. 💔 We have Selena's posthumously released Dreaming of You (1995) on the 1001 Other Albums list so I really wanted to do its spotlight today, but I'm the one who had added it and I feel like I've been choosing too many of my own submissions lately, so I'm going to wait a bit to post a spotlight. Highly recommend listening to this one today anyway.

Selena -- Bidi Bidi Bom Bom*
https://youtu.be/RKGbjJarMeA?si=AgKpOliaBG4QI1Mn
With the delightfully catchy heartbeat-cum-nonsense lyric, Tejano artist Selena's song was a nineties musical landmark. Her murder in 1995 was a great loss; she could have been a megastar.
Two decades later, kids in Texas still know "Bidi Bidi Bom Bom" and "Como La Flor".
* Not be confused with the Hanukkah song "Bidi Bom"!
