On March 31, 1995, Selena was shot and killed by Yolanda Saldívar, her friend and former manager of the singer's Selena Etc. boutiques. At the time of her death, Selena was working on a crossover album that marketed her as an American solo pop artist. The Barrio Boyzz were asked to re-record the song into a bilingual duet with Selena entitled "Wherever You Are". The song was added to the track listing of "Dreaming of You" (1995), which was later certified 35× platinum (Latin field) for shipments of 3.5 million units in the United States.
