Before finding success as a solo artist, Selena Gomez started her music career as part of a band.
The Disney Channel alum’s first musical project was Selena Gomez & the Scene. The group released three studio albums from 2009 to 2012.
Now, Gomez has revealed her favorite song with her old band — and her hopes to re-record it.
Speaking to podcast host Jake Shane on his show Therapuss, the singer said she loves “Who Says,” the lead single off the group’s final album, When the Sun Goes Down.
“It’s the most powerful moment when I get to perform it,” she said. “That’s honestly the only reason I would ever do a tour again, to perform ‘Who Says.'”
While she hasn’t toured since 2016, Gomez said she’d have to “take it down an octave from each year I’ve sang it” if she were to perform “Who Says” today. The Only Murders in the Building star said she would consider re-recording the track because her voice sounds “young” on the original.
“I need to redo it,” she said. “I should recut it.”

The Emilia Pérez actress said that the song’s feel-good message has endured throughout the years. She recalled hearing it on the radio abroad recently and “tearing up” listening to the track.
“I was like, ‘Why the f— am I tearing up to my own song?'” she said. “But it was because it was the little me who was there saying these really powerful messages that I still need to hear.”
