Sabor a Mí

In 1997, Mexican singer Luis Miguel covered "Sabor a Mí" on his album Romances. It was released as the sixth single from the album in 1998 and peaked at number six on the Billboard Hot Latin Songs.[4] Miguel's cover was recognized as one of the best-performing songs of the year at the 1999 BMI Latin Awards.[5]

Miguel's rendition received unfavorable reviews from music critics. Mario Tarradell of The Dallas Morning News noted that Miguel's cover of Sabor a Mí "retains some of its exotic, flamenco guitar-fueled flavor".[6] Fernando Gonzalez of the Orange County Register was not impressed with Miguel's take as he felt that Miguel "sounds simply loud, rather than romantic".[7] Los Angeles Times editor Ernesto Lechnero also criticized Luis Miguel's version of "Sabor a Mí" and stated that is "spun out of control with the addition of drums, reducing the lilting melody to something reminiscent of a TV commercial jingle".[8]

Mexican singer Javier Solís covered "Sabor a Mí" in 1960. His rendition was inducted into the Latin Grammy Hall of Fame in 2001.[9]

José José covered the song when he played Álvaro Carrillo in the 1988 biopic.

As part of the Music Bank World Tour, the South Korean band EXO-K sang Sabor a Mí in Spanish at the "Music Bank in Mexico" show in Mexico City in 2014. The recording of the performance garnered millions of views online.[10]

In 2016, Kali Uchis covered El Chicano's version of Sabor a Mí after she asked her fans online to vote for the song they wanted her to sing.[11]
