"
Dreaming of You" is a song recorded by American
Tejano singer
Selena for her fifth studio album,
Dreaming of You (1995). It was posthumously released as the
lead single by
EMI Latin on 14 August 1995, with "
Techno Cumbia" as its
b-side track. The lyrics explore feelings of longing and hope that the singer's love interest is thinking about her while she is dreaming of him at night. Composed by
Franne Golde and
Tom Snow, "Dreaming of You" is a
pop ballad. It was originally written in 1989 for American R&B group
The Jets, who turned down the recording. Golde believed that the track had potential, and brought it to Selena who recorded it for
Dreaming of You. The singer's
record producer and brother,
A.B. Quintanilla, did not like the track; he later said in a 2002 interview that he was "more judgmental" to the first demo of the track.
