Despite recording only in Spanish, he continued to be the best selling Latin artist in the 1990s, and was credited for popularizing the bolero genre into the mainstream market. He has sold around 60 million records worldwide, making him one of the best-selling Latin music artists.
Latin pop music, along with his personal life and showmanship on stage, has made Luis Miguel popular for nearly his entire career, which started in Mexico in 1982. Having won his first Grammy Award at the age of fourteen for his duet "Me Gustas Tal Como Eres" with Sheena Easton, he is the youngest male artist in music history to have received this accolade. In 1991, the RIAA recognized the high sales for his 1991 album Romance, itself being the third best-selling music album in Mexico, and one of the best-selling Spanish language albums of all time. He was the first Latin artist to have been awarded two Platinum certified Spanish-language albums in the United States with ‘‘Romance’’ and ‘‘Segundo Romance’’ the latter earning him 35 platinum records throughout Central and South America. He is also recognized by Billboard, as the artist with the most top 10 hits on the Billboard's Hot Latin Songs chart. His album Complices was released in 2008 and peaked at No.10 on the Billboard 200; it is the highest position a fully Spanish composed album has reached. His most recent album ¡México Por Siempre! was released in 2017, and it earned him his second No. 1 on the Billboard Regional Mexican Albums and achieved double platinum status.
Luis Miguel is also known for his high-grossing live performances. He is the first-highest grossing Latin touring artist since Boxscore began tracking touring data in 1990, with a towering total of $278.5 million. With the Luis Miguel Tour, which took place in 2010, he visited 22 countries in North America, South America and Europe, where he performed in a three-year span with a total of 223 shows all over the world, making it the longest and highest-grossing tour ever made by a Latin artist. He also holds the record for the most consecutive presentations in the Auditorio Nacional (National Auditorium) with a total of 30 consecutive concerts as well as the record for the most presentations in the same venue with a total of 258 concerts.
Como Duele
Luis Miguel Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Sin quererlo, o sin pensarlo
Sí en ese tiempo de mis años inconscientes
Quedó un alguien lastimado
Ya lo he pagado, ya está saldado
Con cada beso y el amor que te estoy dando
Y me dio por arrancarla
Si hubo un amor que sin reservas me dio todo
Y lo di por ignorado
Ya está saldado, lo estoy pagando
Por cada vez que te acomodo entre mis brazos
Y es contigo con quien duermo
Y me duele la raíz de mis entrañas
Que en un beso antes que yo alguien te daba
Me calcino de pensarlo
Si podré al fin superarlo
Cómo duele
Que la luna no te la haya yo enseñado
Que volaste hasta una estrella de otra mano
Y si yo me he equivocado
Por mi Dios que está saldado
Desde el día en que te tuve y que te amé
Cómo duele
Y me duele la raíz de mis entrañas
Que un beso antes que yo alguien te daba
Me calcino de pensarlo
Si podré al fin superarlo
Cómo duele
Que la luna no te la haya yo enseñado
Que volaste hasta una estrella de otra mano
Y si yo me he equivocado
Por mi Dios que está saldado
Desde el día en que te tuve y que te amé
The opening lines of "Como Duele" by Luis Miguel suggest regret and remorse for past actions related to love. He admits to "playing" or engaging in love without fully understanding the consequences. He acknowledges that he may have hurt someone in the past and has now paid for it. However, he has found someone new and is giving her all his love and attention. The verses convey a sense of learning from past mistakes, and the pain that comes with the realization of missed opportunities and missteps.
In the chorus, the singer speaks to the hurt he feels from the knowledge that his love may have been shared with someone else before him. The pain is compounded because he wishes he could have shown her all the wonders of the world, and yet someone else had already gotten there first. He acknowledges that he may have made mistakes in the past, but he is doing his best in the present to make up for them.
Overall, the song is a sad and introspective lament about past mistakes and missed opportunities. It is a powerful reminder not to take love for granted and to appreciate the people in our lives.

Algunos piensan que esta canción es de desamor de dolor por haber perdido alguien pero en realidad es cuando ya encuentras al amor de tu vida y te entra la espinita por qué no fuiste el primero en enseñarle el amor
Temazo
@miguelortizjr7752
Por fin alguien lo aclara, yo lo entiendo igual.
@recaval
@@miguelortizjr7752 me sumo, siempre lo he pensado así en esta canción, el carnal fue un gozador durante años, se enamoró, y está tan tan enamorado ahora, que se castiga pensando que alguien estuvo antes que él. Son esos sentimientos de pertenencia mutua, de trascendencia, que sólo se viven y se sienten cuando estás enamorado.
@user-op8is9ij9m
si otro ya la hizo su mujer, y también conoció el amor por lo tanto le duele que el no haya Sido el primero.
