He is widely regarded as the most successful artist in Latin American history, having successfully performed in a wide range of musical styles, including pop, ballads, boleros, tangos, jazz, big band and mariachi. Luis Miguel is also recognized as the only Latin singer of his generation to not crossover to the Anglo market during the "Latin Explosion" in the 1990s.

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.

Hola, hola, hola
Tu futuro en la bola
Amor de brujo, bola de cristal

Sola, sola, sola
Sé que tú no estás sola
Y un conjuro te voy a lanzar

Uñas de ¿unicornio?
Cuernos de demonio
Todo bien mezclado con roca

Gotas de suspiro
Un beso perdido
Y un poco de coco y limón

Hola, hola, hola,
Tu futuro en la bola
Amor de brujo, bola de cristal

Luna, luna. Luna,
Hoy hay claro de luna
Es mi noche, no voy a fallar

Un abracadabra
Y un pelo de cabra
Y un poquito mas de melón

Un filtro perfecto
Todo está dispuesto
Para conseguir tu amor

Brujo, yo soy tu brujo,
Yo soy el brujo,
Brujo por ti.

Hola, hola, hola,
Tu futuro en la bola
De este hechizo no te escaparas

Hola, hola, hola,
Tu futuro en la bola
Esta manzana envenenada está

Uñas de unicornio
Cuernos de demonio
Todo bien mezclado con roca

Gotas de suspiro
Un beso perdido
Y un poco de coco y limón

Brujo, brujo, brujo,
Mi poder te sedujo
Y te puedo conocer mejor

Brujo, brujo, brujo,
Por tu culpa fui brujo
El filtro mágico me dio tu amor

Uñas de unicornio
Cuernos de demonio
