Navidades

Navidades (transl. Christmas) is the 17th studio album by Mexican singer Luis Miguel, which Warner Music Latina released on 14 November 2006. It is Miguel's first Christmas album, and features Spanish-language adaptations of English-language songs and carols consisting of big band numbers and string-laden ballads. Édgar Cortázar and Juan Carlos Calderón adapted the songs and Miguel produced the album. To promote Navidades, "Mi Humilde Oración" ("Grown-Up Christmas List") and "Santa Claus Llegó a la Ciudad" ("Santa Claus Is Comin' to Town") were simultaneously released as lead singles, and Luis Miguel performed two tracks from the album on the set list on the third leg of his México En La Piel Tour (2005–07) in November and December 2006.

Upon its release, Navidades received mostly mixed reviews from music critics. While commending Luis Miguel's vocals and the album's musical styles, reviewers were divided on the adaptations. Navidades was nominated as Best Latin Pop Album at the 50th Annual Grammy Awards (2008), and Latin Pop Album of the Year by a Male Artist at the 2007 Latin Billboard Music Awards. The album reached number one in Mexico and on the Billboard Top Latin Albums chart in the United States, and the top ten in Argentina and Spain. It was the first Spanish-language album since 1966 to rank on the Billboard Top Holiday Albums. By November 2015, the record had sold over 1.1 million copies.

Background and recording

edit

In 2004, Luis Miguel released México en la Piel, a collection of mariachi standards.[1] He spent two years promoting the album through the México En La Piel Tour (2005–2007).[2] After the finishing the third leg of the tour at the Mandalay Bay Events Center in Las Vegas, Nevada, in April 2006, Miguel decided to take a break from performing, announcing he would release a new album and resume touring by the end of the year.[3] On 5 October 2006, it was announced that the album would be a holiday album of 11 traditional Christmas carols sung in Spanish, to be released on 14 November.[4] At a press conference on the eve of the album's release, Miguel said: "The conception of this album, Navidades, I have been maturing for years because I have always felt that at Christmas there are great records in English, but not in Spanish. So it seemed like a good idea to record one."[5]

Navidades was recorded at the Ocean Way Recording in Hollywood and the Right Track Recording in New York City, and was produced by Luis Miguel.[6][7] The album features uptempo, big-band numbers and string-laden ballads.[8] Miguel recruited Juan Carlos Calderón—who has worked with Miguel since the 1980s—and Édgar Cortázar to write the Spanish-language versions of the songs.[9] While several songs such as "Santa Claus is Comin' to Town" were translated, others, including "Rudolph the Red-Nosed Reindeer", were rewritten in Spanish with lyrics unrelated to the original. "Rudolph the Red-Nose Reindeer" was reworked as "Frente a la Chimenea" ("In Front of the Chimney") and makes no mention of the titular character. According to Cortázar, "They wanted lyrics Luis Miguel style".[10]

"Mi Humilde Oración" ("Grown-Up Christmas List") and "Santa Claus Llegó a la Ciudad" ("Santa Claus is Comin' to Town") were simultaneously released as the album's lead singles on 23 October 2006.[11] "Mi Humilde Oración" peaked at number 31 on the Billboard Latin Pop Airplay chart and "Santa Claus Llegó a la Ciudad" peaked at number 26 on the same chart.[12] The music video for "Santa Claus Llegó a la Ciudad" was filmed in New York City, and was directed by Rebecca Blake and released on 21 November 2006.[13] To further promote Navidades, "Santa Claus Llegó a la Ciudad" and "Frente a la Chimenea" were included on the set list for the third leg of the México En La Piel Tour in November and December 2006.[14]

Upon its release, music critics gave Navidades generally mostly positive reviews. Billboard's Leila Cobo noted while "hearing these songs in Spanish be disconcerting to some, where the lyrics diverge completely from the originals", and said Miguel's traditional arrangements "work well for the uptempo numbers" and the "string-laden contemplative fare".[8] Reforma critic Beto Castillo praised the arrangements and musicians. Castillo enjoyed Calderón's take on the songs, but criticized those by Cortázar, including "Frente la Chimenea".[18] R. Garza of Vida en el Valle rated the album five stars, complimenting Miguel's voice, the big band arrangements, and "Noche de Paz", his take on "Silent Night". Garza said the album would only be listened to during the holiday season and said Miguel could have recorded more tracks and included a DVD with bonus features.[17] A writer for Vista magazine gave the album a positive review, stating: "This collaboration gives the songs a new resonance for the whole family, evoking the happiness and hope of the holidays and the excitement and nostalgia of the season".[19]

Charlie Fidelman of the Montreal Gazette rated the album three-and-a-half stars out of five, highlighting the artist's ability to stay "romantic in all guises", and complimented his "expressive tenor voice" and the big-band ensemble.[16] AllMusic reviewer Evan C. Gutierrez was more critical of the album, giving it two stars and criticizing the singer for not having "a drop of class or elegance that comes with such commitment" in regards to recording a jazz album. Gutierrez regarded the song choices as "more silly than playful".[15] Writing for El Sentinel, Eliseo Cardona listed Navidades as one of the worst albums of 2006, stating nobody should have to pay the artist to "hear him sing Christmas songs that in gringo land are already taken for guachafas" (a low class person with poor manners and little education).[20]

At the 50th Annual Grammy Awards in 2008, Navidades was nominated for Best Latin Pop Album, becoming the first Christmas album to be nominated in this category,[21] but lost to El Tren de los Momentos (2006) by Alejandro Sanz.[22][23] It was also nominated in the category of Latin Pop Album by a Male Artist at the 2007 Latin Billboard Music Awards but lost to Amor (2006) by Andrea Bocelli.[24][25]

Commercial performance

edit

In Mexico, Navidades debuted at number one in the Top 100 Mexico chart, where it remained for three weeks.[26] Navidades was certified diamond by Asociación Mexicana de Productores de Fonogramas y Videogramas (AMPROFON) almost two months after its launch for sales of 500,000 copies and was the fourth-best-selling album of 2006 in Mexico.[27][28] By October 2008 the album reported 700,000 units sold in Mexico alone.[29] In the US, Navidades debuted and peaked at number 51 in the Billboard 200 on the week of 2 December 2006,[30] and was the first all-Spanish album to appear on Billboard's holiday chart since 1966, peaking at number seven on this chart.[31][32] The album also debuted at number one on the Billboard Top Latin Albums chart.[33] It sold 145,000 units in the US up to July 2009 and was awarded a double-platinum certification in the Latin field by the Recording Industry Association of America (RIAA) for shipments of 200,000 units.[34][35]

In Spain, Navidades reached number four on the album chart and was certified gold by Productores de Música de España (PROMUSICAE) for shipping over 40,000 copies, making it the 34th-best-selling album of the year.[36][37] In Argentina, the album reached number two and was certified platinum by the CAPIF.[38][39] It was certified gold in Chile and Venezuela by International Federation of the Phonographic Industry Chile and Asociación Venezolana de Intérpretes y Productores de Fonogramas (AVINPRO), respectively.[40] As of November 2015, Navidades had sold over 1.1 million units worldwide.[41]
