"Amor (Amor, Amor, Amor)" is Luis Miguel doing what he does best: a big, sweeping bolero about love that feels almost sacred. The title word is repeated three times like a heartbeat, and every chorus asks where this love came from.
The answer: nació de ti, nació de mí, de la esperanza. It was born from you, from me, from hope, and even de Dios para los dos, from God for the two of them, straight from the soul. The verses get tender and a little spiritual, with kisses that "nested" in him, like messenger doves of light, and making the sign of the cross on her lips.
For learners it's a gem: short, repeated lines, clear pronunciation, and great past-tense practice with nació and se quedaron, plus lovely vocabulary like esperanza, alma and palomas.
