Dreaming of You is the fifth and final studio album by American singer Selena, released posthumously on July 18, 1995, by EMI Records and EMI Latin. After witnessing her performance at the 1989 Tejano Music Awards, EMI Latin's José Behar envisioned her as "the next Gloria Estefan", and redirected his efforts toward securing her prominence in the Latin music industry before attempting an American pop crossover. After a succession of Spanish-language triumphs and a Grammy Award for Selena Live!, the label signed her to SBK Records to commence the crossover project. The SBK contract drew widespread attention and was hailed as the year's most significant Tejano development. Recording for Dreaming of You initially stalled, in part due to Amor Prohibido, as the label prioritized her Latin marketability. After Selena's murder on March 31, 1995, the label resolved to issue a bilingual album, featuring unreleased English-language material intended for her crossover debut, two shelved contributions from the Don Juan DeMarco soundtrack, and remixes of earlier work.
