I don't really think Selena's that great a singer. Even Miley stomps over her. For me:
VOCALS: Demi > Miley > Selena MUSIC: Miley > Demi > Selena
I want this to be a hit though, so I'll give Selena this one. But Demi really needs to take off huge after this. Having FINALLY checked out Demi's album, I really like 'Solo', 'Quiet', 'Got Dynamite' and 'Everything You're Not' as singles after 'Remember December'.

I love this song from the first time i watched the video on Disney Channel. I think Selena can sing. I don't know why some people says that she can't sing. ' Tell me Something I don't know' is a good single too. Also her voice sounds very versatile. Maybe Disney sees a huge potential in her, that's why they are supporting her more. Her album and the single are doing well too. Also her show on Disney is one of the most popular right now. :)

It's really hilarious to see the posts that say Selena can't sing. They clearly haven't checked her live performances - especially her vocals on "The Way I Loved You."
Anyway, I'm sure this will do well in the long run. It's gotten an adds date in two weeks. There's plenty of time.

Why does everyone from Disney think they can sing? I agree, but the difference with Selena (and Demi) is that they actually CAN sing, so I'm all for them having pop hits. wait wait....the only one on Disney that can actually sing is Demi!!! Miley a bit better than selena!! but miley and selena CANT sing!!! Those two are just an example of an average person trying to sing!

Having said that, this is much better than anything Demi has ever put out and has much more hit potential. If Demi wants to break through she'll have to up her game a little bit, I didn't hear any mainstream potential really from her last album. She definitely has potential, she just needs slightly better material.

Excuse me for actually finding some redeeming qualities in Miley's vocals and in her music. No, I don't think Miley Cyrus is the best thing since sliced bread. Yes, I think Demi is a stronger vocalist than her (HWGA is proof of this) but Miley has put out more consistently enjoyable albums to me. No, I don't think Selena is anywhere near them on either count. Her music bar this song has to-date completely bored me, and she's just so MOR and replaceable as a vocalist. If Miley or Demi were to sing any of those songs, I'd most likely still hate them but I'd know just by listening that it's *them* rather than having to know in advance or having to look it up later.

^^ She definitely is both. I think everyone has to agree with that. She's prettier (at least to me) than them all and her attitude and personality seems to be much better as well, which is the only reason I root for her more than the other two, but vocally she is the worst.

HDD Numbers for this week! ;D26 SELENA GOMEZ & THE SCENE HOLLYWOOD 21,065 -- KISS & TELL Good Numbers for Selena! She outsold Miley this week. Kiss and tell is still doing great, considering that it was released since September, and it's still top 26. ;)

Oh no they didn't. How dare they give this b***h an adds date but not Demi. I feel really bad for demi. shes the only one of these 3 girls who actually seems to want a long term career in mainstream music and HR won't do anything for her. Selena does not deserve an adds date over her. I don't think this will do well long term. Selena can't sing. plain and simple

Selena isn't serious about having a music career, for her this is just fun and doing it because she was given the chance, where as for Demi and Miley music seems to be everything to them. I can't support her music career over them. Shes a better actress then them but music wise, i find it difficult to root for her when you've got Miley and Demi who are doing it because they genuinely love it

Nice sales for Selena. Looks like "Naturally" is really doing well for her album. Plus it looks like she will be beating out Demi to get their first Gold certified album.

I've seen you cum over Miley tracks in the past, so I didn't understand why you insulted her voice. LMAO That's all. :)

^ First off, that was not an insult to Miley. Second off, I've never been *that* wild over a Miley song. Third off, stop making things up. It only makes you look like a condescending prick.

It seemed like an insult. Insinuating she's not even a good singer to begin with. But anyway, apparently you didn't mean it so whatevs not a big deal. Although lol at you saying I'm making up things.

And there is no reasoning in that post. You didn't reveal what it was about her voice that even irked you a tiny bit to justify the comment of Miley's voice "EVEN stomping over" Selena's voice. :)

...yes I did. I said Selena's voice is completely indistinctive and replaceable. Anyone could sing her songs. How can she be a 'good' singer rather than an 'average' singer when there is nothing about her voice that stands out? You're implying that I said she was 'bad' when I never said that - but good singing is about more that just hitting the notes and carrying a tune which from my perspective is all Selena has achieved.
Miley has shown stronger vocal technique than Selena, both live and on studio recordings, and with her distinctive twang she owns her material when she sings it. Not like Selena's where anyone could sing the song exactly the same way and it's just a song - not really anyone's, just a song. Miley has also shown improvement over the years. Granted, Selena's only put out one album - but it's gonna take a lot for her to win me over with a follow-up.
And it's not an insult to Miley to say that Demi's better than her. That's just common sense. You can HEAR the improvement Demi's made between 'Don't Forget' and 'Here We Go Again'. She doesn't yelp on the high notes nearly as much and I don't imagine her being able to pull off 'Every Time You Lie' the way she sounded on her first album.

You never explained why she was just "even" better than Selena rather than simply better, which is what I figured was an insult to Miley's voice. I already got your whole Selena spiel in the last post.

I love Selena but I am not sure she can sing... The only live performance I've seen of her was on a Mexican charity show (Avril was on too) and she was horrible.
