Selena - Buenos Amigos

About "Buenos Amigos"

"Buenos Amigos" ("Good Friends") is a down-tempo, pop ballad duet recorded by Salvadoran recording artist Álvaro Torres and American recording artist Selena for Torres' sixth studio album Nada Se Compara Contigo (1991). The song was released by EMI Latin in 1992, as the album's second single. Its lyrics explore a friendship built on the strong, unrequited feelings of the male narrator. Torres composed "Buenos Amigos" after attending a showcase event at which Selena was performing.

Critics praised the song for being Selena's first number one, while others complimented its ballad-like feeling. According to Billboard, the recording began Selena's career as a dominant Latin chart artist. It was credited for the increased airplay Selena received on regional Mexican and Tejano radio stations, which had previously dismissed her recordings. Selena and Torres were nominated at the 1992 Billboard Music Video Awards and the 1992 Tejano Music Awards. "Buenos Amigos" peaked at number one on the US Billboard Hot Latin Songs chart; it was Torres' second number one in his career, and Selena's first. The single's accompanying music video featured Torres and Selena backed by an orchestra. Cover versions of the song were recordings by Mariana Seoane and Pablo Montero, Tairon and Anaís, and Lucero Terrazas.
