I've listed this article for peer review because…I would like to take it to FLC very soon

I think the lead section is way too big. The lead should really just provide an introduction and summarize the main points of the article, but this is giving a pretty significant chunk of her biography, as well as details not found anywhere else in the list. I do get that some of this is just a result of the list format, but I think breaking it up and slimming it down is still necessary. Readers shouldn't have to get through nearly a thousand words before hitting the main point of the list.
The last paragraph seems to be meat that should be inline with the song details themselves. Other parts seem unnecessary--it's songs recorded by Selena, so why does it mention covers or samples? (It also makes it unclear if the Abraham "Feelings" track actually features Selena or it's just a song Selena recorded when she was six.
The actual list section seems fine; it's clear, sortable, and provides easy access to references.
- I note that a lot of the song stuff is referenced directly to the LP/liners. It might be good to see if you can find an online source to corroborate these, as it's rather hard to expect someone to dig out an 80's LP to verify.
- I'm unsure of the reliability of El Porvenir; might want to write up a defense of it just for those who don't have the language skills to easily verify how it meets WP:RS.
