I've listed this article for peer review because I would like it to be a good article. However, since I haven't been successful in my nominations I am coming here first for comments.

Ruhrfisch comments: Thanks for your work on this article, here are some suggestions for improvement.

A model article is useful for ideas and examples to follow. There are 46 WP:FA articles on songs at Category:FA-Class song articles, and several of them seem like they would be good models for this.
The article has a large amount of coverage on its video compared to the material on the song in the article, which might be a WP:WEIGHT issue. For an example of a FA on a single with a well known video see Under the Bridge
The biggest problem with the article is the language, which has numerous errors and problems. This is in serious need of a copyedit to have any chance of passing at GAN.
I do not have time to do a copyedit myself, but here are a few sentences from just the lead It was released in the United States for the Tejano and rhythmic contemporary radios. The song describes an emotional destruct women who had recently fell in love with a man, and later finds out he is getting married. The women then fells like "There's nothing left" to live for, without being with him. I think this means something like It was released in the United States for Tejano and rhythmic contemporary radio stations [but wasn't it released as a single for sale too??]. The song describes an emotional distraught woman who had recently fallen in love with a man, but later finds out he is getting married. The women then feels like "There's nothing left" to live for[, without being with him - I am not sure what this means].
The lead should be an accessible and inviting overview of the whole article. Nothing important should be in the lead only - since it is a summary, it should all be repeated in the body of the article itself, but The songs, "Amor Prohibido" and "No Me Queda Más", became the most successful singles of 1994 and 1995.[1][2] seems to only be in the lead.
As written The songs, "Amor Prohibido" and "No Me Queda Más", became the most successful singles of 1994 and 1995.[1][2] is vague and needs to be clarified - most successful in the whole world? in the US? in the Latin music markets?
My rule of thumb is to include every header in the lead in some way, but critical reception and covers do not seem to be in the lead. Please see WP:LEAD
The organization of the article is odd, though it may be from the ongoing merger of the video and music articles. Again I would look at some model articles
Most of the references are to amazon.com - not sure that is the best, mosst reliable source.
What makes covers notable?
Please make sure that the existing text includes no copyright violations, plagiarism, or close paraphrasing.

(This is a general warning given in all peer reviews, in view of previous problems that have risen over copyvios.)

Hope this helps. If my comments are useful, please consider peer reviewing an article, especially one at Wikipedia:Peer review/backlog (which is how I found this article). I do not watch peer reviews, so if you have questions or comments, please contact me on my talk page. Yours, Ruhrfisch _><>°^° 02:59, 2 May 2011 (UTC)[reply]

Note The merger between the music video and article has been complete. Adabow hasn't remove the tag ever since s/he had tag the two articles. The reason why there might be a weight issue with a more coverage on the music video then the song is because, I have found numerous articles and video specials on the music video itself rather then the song. I only found a little less then a handful of articles pertaining the song itself. I have fixed the lead and added in the music video and a little bit of everything else on the article. The reference for "No Me Queda Mas" and "Amor Prohibido" being the most successful singles of 1994 and 1995, doesn't specify the country or genre that it was most successful in. I decided to say in "United States Latino community and Mexico" as the song only charted in music charts pertaining to Latin music and not to mainstream American charts. The only references that are from Amazon.com is the covers and release dates. The covers are other Latin American artists who included the song in their albums, however, none ever peaked in a music chart that's why I used a table to add all the covers, since a lot of artists recorded the song. All other songs include covers from artists, why exclude it here? If there are any other problems please tell me so I can fix them. I'm not good with prose and all that other stuff but I did re-read the article and found minor errors, which I fixed. Also, if you can, re-name the article back to "No Me Queda Mas", some other editor decided to lower-case each other letter, however, as you can see, the cover is in upper case.
