It's not bad. Just comma and quotation issues that stand out the most. Here are the issues you have to address within the seven days:
Lead
Needs to be shortened down to only one pararaph. The article is too short for a lead of that length.
"while it was produced by Guy Roche." (incorrect usage of 'while') Try: "and was produced by Guy Roche."
"Recording sessions had took place"
"The song was given mixed reviews from music critics" – "by", not "from".
"The Daily Vault, believed Selena made a mistake with "Captive Heart". Mario Tarradell of The Dallas Morning News stated that "Captive Heart" was bordering on that New Jill Swing sound popularized by Mary J. Blige and Jade." - We do not need individual reviews in the lead. Remove.
"The song's lyrics describes a girl who" → "The lyrics describe a girl who"
"Her love is then captivated by his "wild passion" that keeps her from being free." - Source to quotation?
"'Captive Heart' peaked at number ninety-six on the Canadian Hot 100 and number thirty on the Rhythmic Top 40" - Numbers above 9 are written as numerals. So 96, not ninety-six.
Production and composition
"while it was produced by" - "and was produced by"
"It was audio mixed by Nathaniel "Mick" Guzuaski"
"It had drew influences" - use present tense.
"The song's lyrics describes" - grammatical error
Third paragraph has no sources.
As per above, if not I'll remove.
Simply remove both informations.
Commercial performance and critical reception
"Vibe editor Ed Morales, compared both, Evelyn "Champagne" King and "Wherever You Are" (duet with the Barrio Boyzz) with the song 'Captive Heart'" - remove those commas. They are incorrect.
"The Daily Vault, believed Selena made a mistake with 'Captive Heart'" - remove comma.
"'... the song was a surprising and painful flaw, because it showcases a mistake of exerting too much throat, which many popular singers currently do ...'" There should not be ellipses in the beginning and end of quotations. Remove all and place a period after the quotation.
"Mario Tarradell of The Dallas Morning News, stated while reviewing "I'm Getting Used To You" that the songs "... are a bit more uptempo, bordering on that New Jill Swing sound popularized by Mary J. Blige and Jade ..."[13]" - improper use of comma and ellipses.
Do I use [...]?
No, just remove the ellipses. That's all.
Awards and nominations
Rename section to simply "Nominations" because she did not win the awards.
Remove red links.

I know this is frustrating, but I just found that you are sourcing the instrumentation info with Musicnotes, which is only reliable source tempo, key and chord progression. So it's gotta go, which renders the audio sample failing WP:NFCC and that must be removed as well. Sorry, —WP:PENGUIN·[ TALK ]20:05, 3 December 2011 (UTC)[reply]
