Love Love Love Luis Miguel. He did my wedding song! He deserves to be number 1! Always and forever!
Luis Miguel = Artista de calidad, entrega, pasion, amor por el arte de la musica, respeto a su publico y asi mismo.. por siempre #1.
Today’s music is just an embarrassment!
Luis Miguel’s a true CLASSIC! He’s genuine and unique.
I only wish he recorded in English though….He’s a legend just like Elvis, Sinatra, M Jackson and The Beatles. It is a pity he decided not to record in english…I’m Aussie and I love him!
Me encanta Chayanne, esel unico que ademas de profesonal es humilde, sensible y complaciente con sus fans, no me gustan los 2 primeros lugares.
Luis Miguel deserves the TOP SPOT because of his masterful music for which I truly admire. “Out of many one…Luis Miguel.”
