This Selena Gomez song was almost sung by Rihanna

[@Yayayyyayayaa]

I can see exactly why ester chose Rihanna after Hearing her version her powerful voice would’ve been perfect, but Selena did an amazing job too.

[@lsjofficial4415]

This is such a riri vides, Selena and ester did great but Riri would have slay

[@beatrix8308]

@Freak Show well, technically, its Dean's own song?

[@Madzblr]

Ikr!!!

I agreeee 🥰

[@nishthagupta1357]

Exactly yes.

[@lilmizzije]

I can imagine Rihanna singing this.

[@RemyIssa]

Ester demo will suits Rihanna music style

[@ssmm0608]

Me too!

[@chickenlicking4751]

Ikr! its going to match rihanna more

[@andreavillet8158]

Selena Gomez could'ev worked with Rihanna on the song.

[@S3XYdriver]

Selena literally killed it. So good.

[@unclematt318]

No but I can imagine Rihanna’s island accent on this track after hearing Esther’s demo. And it would’ve fit ‘Talk that Talk’s vibe perfectly.

[@uglyken0]

Exactly talk that talk would have been perfect for that song

[@kisha3131]

I said the same thing it's giving more rihanna

[@WhatNatters]

Exactly this

Nah Selena does so good with it her voice fits it

[@Shadoep]

She kills it because you didn’t know it was recorded by someone else. you are use to hearing Selena’s version so that’s the one you are use too

[@Ev3rmore]

@@Shadoep first time I heard both though-

[@Thundersheep482]

Selena gomez version suits the most

[@digitalharmony26]

People saying Ester didn’t have the “passion”, “drive” or “oomph” but she was recording the demo so the artist would hear how it goes. She wasn’t giving a performance. She could have done a phenomenal job if she was trying to. She has wicked talent and I do believe she could have blown you lot away with it but she didn’t put as much effort into it as Selena did because Selena was performing it for an album.

[@litneyloxan]

Ester was making bangerz before Selena’s career was even at the level of being able to buy ester’s demos honestly

[@actuallyNo...]

Right?
This is like a fashion show. They chose basically plain, thin , tall models so the clothes are what u see, not the body or face underneath.
It's a choice platter, not a party platter! Lol.
They're just supposed to hear basic sound to see if they want to use it.

[@digitalharmony26]

@@actuallyNo... perfect analogy

[@actuallyNo...]

@@digitalharmony26 , lol. Thanks. ;-)

[@ReasonablySpeaking9808]

Let’s be honest: Esther can sing them both under the table, but that’s not the point. Esther writes songs and then sells demos. She’s not trying to be the star, so she waters down her pipes to sound average and easy-to-follow for her buyers so they can picture themselves bringing their own style to it.

[@markk8248]

I wanna hear Rihanna do it 😍 it would fit her voice so perfectly

[@BossladySupreme313]

I do, too

[@eidorian369]

I do, three

[@mv3008]

Selena has angelic one of a kind voice🤩

[@jadew9177]

It def sounds like a Rihanna song but both versions are nice. Esther gives it an island twang

[@ainiudey]

Ester definitely should have recorded it herself and that would have been a great jumpstart to a good r&b career

[@AseAleisha]

She is a song writer they make way more

[@joefuentes2977]

i really feel like it’s like selena like “omg i really like this song” vs ester is like “i wrote this song and it’s kinda corny so bleh”

[@tr15709]

i can see how it was intended for rihanna at first but selena killed it

[@desireericheymesser4143]

Miss this Selena. She's literally a different person almost. It's sad bc even though I am a huge Justin Beiber fan, I honestly think he broke her to the point of losing her confidence and spark. I hope she can come back to this one day. She's so beautiful and talented it's crazy.

[@boutglo6853]

She’s doing better than ever. Hopefully she releases something iconic next year

[@user-im6ld5yr7r]

Ester had a hit of her own!! Drop it low, anyone?! 😅

[@Hello61Jello]

She looked stunning in that music video too. Legit inspired me to dye my hair black

[@DeeRio9546]

Of course ester doesn't have oomph or passion singing it. It's a demo she has to sell the song for an artist to take it and put their interpretation on it. If you've heard ester on pitch perfect she's very easily capable to put extra onto anything she sings

[@amanahicks1347]

I literally fell in love with her over this song and also “a year without rain”

[@DuJuice]

I used to be obsessed with this song. And literally obsessed with every song from her first four albums. I miss that era

[@RUTHBAMAR-yt1nd]

I love how Selena nailed it.

[@singerdude1992]

Ester has the voice
Selena has the personality behind the vocals
Selena stomps. She had a good voice and SELLS the song. Ester has the voice but doesn't have the oomph

Selena is a horrible singer

[@Crybaby-hy3ec]

Ester just have this edgy to this song i think this song really suits Rihanna voice tone and became no.1 hit on billboard

[@samirmuhammad1781]

The way the writer of the song is singing makes me think she really intended to make this song for rihanna. It would be an interesting version to listen to

[@1PandaCutie]

the whole style of the song and music video really does match Rihanna. I think she should’ve took it

[@husaimo911]

This was such an iconic time in my live. Love you like a love song? Shit was popppppiin’

[@lani7507]

Agreed

[@melisacaceres8740]

Come and get it is such a bop

[@arnoldotoho]

My brain has synced Selena with this song so although Ester doesn't sound half bad on her demo, Selena just seems to have done a better job with this. 🙂

[@ajollypanda4175]

Lol you people a crazy…you’re comparing two lines from a demo to a whole song. In those two lines you can already tell the person who made it is a better singer…idk how anyone can say selena does a better job

[@arnoldotoho]

@@ajollypanda4175 You just said not to compare two lines of a demo to the song, yet you've already made up your mind that Ester did it better because "she's a better singer" and you clearly just don't like Selena. Lol.

[@musikeradaw]

I remember when Selena’s voice wasn’t that developed. She recognized that she needed voice training to improve and she did. It was smart of her to explore music aside from acting.

[@angelsoverme25]

Selena sings with cute passion. Ester has a great voice but not the passion. Both awesome!
