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.

Luis Miguel Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
No sé lo que té pasa
Soledad
Yo sólo y tanta casa
Pienso en ti
De pronto creo en ti
Soy tonto y sin ti
Háblame
Marca mi número y háblame
Que mi teléfono no espera
Que me pidas que te quiera
Por favor, sólo háblame
Deja tus líos y háblame
Dime por fin que me buscas
Que me quieres de verdad
Pienso en ti
De pronto creo en ti
Soy tonto y sin ti
Me siento super mal
Por favor, sólo háblame
Toma el teléfono y háblame
Dime por fin que has pensado
Que te vienes a mi lado
Por favor, sólo háblame
Marca mi número y háblame
Dime por fin lo que espero
Que me quieres, que te quiero
Oh, oh oh oh oh oh, oh
The lyrics of Luis Miguel's song Háblame talk about the feeling of loneliness and the desire to connect with someone. The singer is wondering where his loved one is and what is happening with her. He feels lonely and lost in his house without her. He thinks about her all the time, and he becomes a fool without her presence. He is hoping that she would call him and express her love for him. The singer is asking her to leave all her troubles and just communicate with him, revealing her true feelings towards him. He pleads with her to take the phone and speak to him, disclosing her intentions and expressing her love for him.
This song conveys the message that in a relationship, communication is crucial, and without it, the relationship can suffer. The singer is asking for communication as it is key to resolve conflicts, express love, and keep a relationship healthy. In addition, the song shows the vulnerability and fragility of the human heart when their loved ones are not around.
