It was released through EMI Latin in October 1994, as the album's third single. It was written by Ricky Vela and produced by Selena's brother-producer A.B. Quintanilla. A downtempo mariachi and pop ballad, "No Me Queda Más" explores the ranchera storyline of a woman who is in agony after the end of her relationship. The lyrical content suggest unrequited love where the protagonist wishes her former lover and his new partner "nothing but happiness".

"No Me Queda Más" garnered acclaim from music critics, who enjoyed its emotive nature and cited it as one of the most successful singles of Selena's career. The song peaked at number one on the United States Billboard Hot Latin Songs chart for seven nonconsecutive weeks, her third successive number one song. "No Me Queda Más" also peaked at number one on the Regional Mexican Airplay chart, her first. "No Me Queda Más" became the most successful U.S. Latin single of 1995 and has been ranked as the ninth best Tejano song of all-time and the eleventh best Hot Latin Songs chart single of all-time.

The music video for "No Me Queda Más" was shot in San Antonio, Texas' amtrak train station. The recording received the Broadcast Music Inc. Song of the Year award in 1995 and Music Video of the Year at the Billboard Latin Music Awards. Many musicians have since recorded the song and released it on their respective albums including Mexican singer Pepe Aguilar, American salsa singer Tito Nieves, and Mexican pop group Palomo. The latter's version peaked at number six on the Regional Mexican Airplay chart, while Nieves' version peaked at number seven on the U.S. Tropical Songs chart.

Inspiration, writing and production

In 1980, Ricky Vela joined Selena y Los Dinos as their keyboardist.[1] Vela began having romantic feelings for the drummer of the group Suzette Quintanilla, and kept it a secret.[2] He confessed his feelings to her father and the manager of the group Abraham Quintanilla, Jr., who began teasing him about it.[2] After Suzette got married in September 1993,[3] Vela wrote "No Me Queda Más" addressing the marriage and Vela's feelings to her.[2] The song surfaced when Selena was handed the writing to be recorded for her fourth studio album Amor Prohibido (1994).[2] The track was originally planned to be recorded in a mariachi style; Jose Behar (then-president of EMI Latin) believed the song wouldn't appeal to the popular market as a mariachi recording.[2] The group gave the song to Argentine Bebu Silvetti to be arranged into more of a pop style track.[2] Behar asked Silvetti to "sweeten" the song in order to boost its airplay performance and chart success.[4] The end results elevated Selena's performance on pop music radios.[4] In an interview with Billboard magazine, Behar spoke on how the track was "internalized" without affecting its originality of how the song was recorded.[4] During the recording sessions, Selena's brother-producer A.B. Quintanilla retold in a 2002 interview how he had asked Selena to record the song for the fifth time, for which the singer replied "what you got there is what you got" and left shopping.[5] He said "now looking back, she really did a beautiful job when recording the song, she had so much passion. The song became a classic. That's what I can remember from one of the beautiful memories I have of Amor Prohibido."[5]

As a matter of fact, I've had it with you, and this studio, I'm ready to get out of here" - she kind of threw a fit - well she kind of didn't throw a fit.
