Selena Gomez and Benny Blanco They have decided to expand the first collaborative album catalog launching the deluxe version of I SAID I LOVED YOURST… and you said it back.

In this way, the couple formed between the singer and the producer has added eight more songs to the original tracklist, to which the remixes of Bluet Flme or Cowboy, two versions of How Does It Feel To Be Forgotten (Live from Vevo) and Call Me When You Break Up (Acoustic Version)and the unpublished Stained either Talk.

This last theme has also become the Focus single of the publication and has been accompanied by a video clip that teaches how both artists organized and planned a graduation dance or, which is the same, their own own promsince Selena had never lived such experience.

From the courtesy photos on a pastel background to dance glued with a glass of punch (or champín), through the arrival in limousine … all that is seen in the short that Selena and Benny have created by fun.

“I need your arm around me, I need to feel your touch / i need your understunding, and need your love so much / you tell me that you love me, you tell me that you (I need to be in your arms, touch you, your understanding and your love. You say that you love me, that I care, but when I need you you are never there), “interpreted John McCrea.

The one who was single debut of the aforementioned rock band won for three weeks in #1 of the Alternative Airplay list of Billboard magazine in the year 98. And, while this success speaks of the frustration that the protagonist feels between what he says and makes his beloved; Gomez and Blanco’s song addresses the desire of two lovers to see again to “speak”, used as euphemism, since at the end of the song its true intentions are revealed.

“I need your arm around me, I need to feel your touch, I’M Feeling Kinda Lonely and I Really Wanna Talk/Fuck (I need to be in your arms, I need to touch you, I feel a little alone and I just want … talk (f*llar)“we listen to in Talk
