David Archuleta first sang the chorus to Como La Flor in San Antonio, Texas during his solo tour. It was so well received that he continued to sing it at all the following concerts, making his fans extremely happy but also leaving them with the need to hear him sing the whole song. Well the stars seemed to have aligned and I would like to believe that maybe Selena had a hand David being invited to sing “Como La Flor” at the Tejano Music Awards. A tribute to the incomparable and beloved Selena, this is a huge honor. A better choice could not have been made and I know Selena will be smiling proudly tonight with all of David’s existing fans and a slew of new ones when he sings, in its entirety, Como La Flor.
First time performing Como La Flor in San Antonio Texas.
Selena (1971-1995), often called the “The Mexican Madonna,” was from very humble beginnings but used her raw talent and sultry voice to become one of popular music’s fastest rising stars. Although cut down very early in her career as she was preparing to make the transition from Spanish-language to English-language chart success, her legacy has been one of ever broader exposure for Tejano music and the artists that create it. A greatest hits album, “Ones” was released in 2002.
Como La Flor was the second single released from the Entre Mi Mundo album. The single became a worldwide success selling very quickly throughout the United States, Mexico, and South America, where Selena began to be respected as a professional singer. This single helped Selena to also be accepted in Mexico, and tour all over the country. Como La Flor became the first of many signature songs of Selena and became included in all of Selena’s live performance as the starting number or the final song of the night.
“Como La Flor” was the final song Selena performed at her last televised performance at the Houston Astrodome.
Como La Flor
Yo sé que tienes un nuevo amor
Sin embargo te deseo lo mejor
Si en mí no encontraste felicidad
Tal vez alguien más te la dará
Como la flor (como la flor)
Con tanto amor (con tanto amor)
Me diste tú
Se marchitó
Me marcho hoy
Yo sé perder
Pero ay ay ay
Cómo me duele
Aaaaay
Cómo me duele
Si vieras como duele perder tu amor
Con tu adiós te llevas mi corazón
No sé si pueda volver a amar
Porque te di todo el amor que pude dar
Como la flor (como la flor)
Con tanto amor (con tanto amor)
Me diste tú
Se marchitó
Me marcho hoy
Yo sé perder
Pero aaaaay
Cómo me duele
Aaaaay
Cómo me duele
Como la flor (como la flor)
Con tanto amor (con tanto amor)
Me diste tú
Se marchitó
Me marcho hoy
Yo sé perder
Pero aaaaay
Cómo me duele
Aaaaay
Cómo me duele
Like the Flower
I know that you have a new love
Nevertheless I wish you the best
If with me you didn’t find happiness
Maybe you will with someone else
Like the flower
With so much love
You gave to me
It withered
I leave today
I know how to lose
But aaaaay
How it hurts me
Aaaaay
How it hurts me
If you could see how it hurts to lose your love
With your goodbye you take my heart
I don’t know if I can love again
Because I gave you all the love that I could give
Like the flower (like the flower)
With so much love
You gave to me
It withered
I leave today
I know how to lose
But aaaaay
How it hurts me
Aaaaay
How it hurts me
Like the flower (like the flower)
With so much love
You gave to me
It withered
I leave today
I know how to lose
But aaaaay
How it hurts me
Aaaaay
How it hurts me
