“De Una Vez” is a song on Gomez’s first Spanish EP album, Revelación. According to Latest Spotlight Stories on YouTube, the album took ten years to make. From there, Gomez would meet with a Spanish coach every day to make this album, eventually becoming fluent in the language.
The inspiration behind this album was Gomez’s desire to honor her Mexican heritage, being a descendant of Mexican immigrants on her father’s side, and being named after the late singer, Selena Quintanilla. The album is her own personal storybook, telling a tale of her family’s history.
