Habítame Siempre (English: Live In Me Always) is the twelfth studio album by Mexican recording artist Thalía,[1] released on November 19, 2012 by Sony Music Latin.

[2] The album consists of 15 tracks, including collaborations with Robbie Williams, Michael Bublé, Gilberto Santa Rosa, Prince Royce, Erik Rubin, Leonel García, Samuel Parra (Samo) and Jesús Navarro.

The sudden death of her mother, as well as the birth of her second child were two very strong emotional moments Thalía passed through while preparing the album.

On October 17, the album was officially presented in New York City,[13] while a few days later, the song Habitame siempre leaked in various websites.

She also went on to say that "releasing this album represents a sense of respite and some kind of freedom as well" since in the last 4 years she passed through intense situations like being affected by Lyme disease, losing her beloved mother and having a series of familiar conflicts with her sisters.

[15] The album consists of both new songs and covers, as well as a series of highly anticipated collaborations with some of the greatest artists in contemporary music, like Robbie Williams, Michael Bublé, Prince Royce, Erik Rubin, Leonel García, Samo from Camila, Jesús Navarro from Reik and the legendary Latin icon Gilberto Santa Rosa.

"We sang the classic song 'Bésame mucho' with Michael Bublé, but we created a different version with tango elements, that make it really sexy.

I sent the song to him, he loved the idea of recording it in Spanish, and the result was spectacular", said Thalía regarding to her collaborations with Michael Bublé and Robbie Williams.

Generally, Habítame Siempre is considered one of the most complete albums in Thalía's career, since it includes elements and influences of various Latin music genres.

During the production process of Habítame Siempre, Thalía focused a lot on details to guarantee an exceptional quality of sound, as her desire was to offer to her audience the best produced album in her career.

The album contains songs with profound meanings and a sentimental approach, as it was initially inspired in Thalía's mother, Yolanda Miranda, who died in May 2011.

[29] Thalía and Prince Royce performed the song live in the 25th anniversary show of Lo Nuestro Awards, that took place in Miami, Florida on February 21, 2013.

[40] Many critics pointed out that in Habítame Siempre, Thalía is enjoying an artistic peak, as she interprets most of the songs with an indescridable feeling, as if the intensity of the emotions that she's accumulated throughout her life have come pouring out in her latest music, and especially in her voice.

On this album, as well as on the previous one, Thalía focused on creating quality music that can bring out our better instincts, and she leaves no doubt as to why she is an international artist who's revered by her peers.

She gets all soft-focus and limpid-eyed with a trio of other mid-career stars ("Con Los Años Que Me Quedan"), she salsas with Gilberto Santa Rosa ("Dime Si Ahora") and even gets her brassy classic crooner on with Michael Bublé.

Furthermore, the reviewer went on to claim that in this album, Thalía "chose to not try to be hip and cool, staying as far away from dance music and electronic beats that has plagued the market worldwide", rating her with 3.5 out of 5 stars.

[38] Alejandra Volpi from El País commented that Thalía reached to the most audacious moment of her career in the interpretation of the song "Hoy ten miedo de mi",[36] while Ernesto Lechner from AARP published a favorable review for the album, stating that "no one can doubt Thalía's musical intelligence by incorporating various music styles and artists in this record, making her expressive and temperamental voice to bright even more".

He also stated that in Habítame Siempre "it's like she's mixing the past and the present of Latin music, being this the reason it's her most complete and diverse album to date".

He viewed "Habítame Siempre" as an "ambitious" release, rating it with 3.5 out of 5 stars and stating that "the album features a wide array of styles, and more than a few surprises [...] "Muñequita Linda" with Robbie Williams has a musical cabaret style that harks back to the 1940s [...] her reading of the ubiquitous "Bésame Mucho" with Michael Bublé, in both Spanish and English, weds classic pop to tango and nueva canción in a stunning arrangement".

Habítame Siempre was certified gold one day upon its release in the United States for shipments of over 50,000 copies, according to the Recording Industry Association of America.

[53] As of August 15, 2013, it was announced by AMPROFON and Sony Music that the album had gone triple platinum plus gold in Mexico, which equals 210,000 copies sold.
