Come & Get It

This was released as the first official single by Selena Gomez, from her debut solo album, following the three discs she released as the frontwoman of Selena Gomez & the Scene. The song was written by Ester Dean, while production duties were handled by the Norwegian duo, StarGate.

The song was released a few months after Gomez's split from her former boyfriend Justin Bieber. Fans immediately began speculating that with such lyrics as, "This love ain't finished yet," the tune was a message to her ex that she wanted to get back together. However, the singer denied this was the case. She told Los Angeles DJ Ryan Seacrest, "It's not really about a specific person... It exudes confidence and strength and that is something I'm willing to share with the world... I want to represent something good and be a good example."

Selena Gomez first performed the song at the MTV Movie Awards on April 14, 2013. She received a backlash for wearing a bindi during her Bollywood-themed performance. The singer addressed the controversy during an interview with Elvis Duran on the Z100 morning show. "I think the song has that Hindu, tribal feel and I wanted to translate that," Selena explained. "I've been learning about my chakra and bindis and the culture... It's beautiful."
