Background and concept

''Habítame Siempre'' is Thalía's first studio album since the release of ''

'' in 2008. She began to work in this music production some time after the huge success of her 2009 acoustic album '' Primera fila''. 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. As a result, many of the songs recorded for the album represent Thalía's current feelings and emotional situation. As she declared, the whole album ''Habítame Sempre'' (which means "Live in me always") is dedicated to the memory of her mother. She revealed the cover art of her album through her Instagram account almost a month before the official album release date, while the album title was already rumored to be ''Habítame Siempre'' since September, as her private concert at

, while a few days later, the song ''Habitame siempre'' leaked in various websites. As Thalía stated in many interviews, working in the music material of ''Habítame Siempre'' functioned as a soul catharsis for her. 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

, losing her beloved mother and having a series of familiar conflicts with her sisters.

Composition and music influences

Regarding to the composition of the album's material, Thalía stated : "they used to send me songs with deep feelings like pain, anguish and sorrow. In some way, Mario Domm from Camila, captured my big loss in a spirit of positivism. I was enchanted by how he could transform my pain of losing my mother into light, into something positive". 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

I invited him to sing with me a 'mambo' song, ''Muñequita linda'' that was made popular by the voice of Nat King Cole. I knew he was the only one that could understand the irony of rescuing this classic mambo masterpiece. 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

Production

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.

As Thalía herself stated : “Many songs of this new production were recorded while recalling all these years with my mother. Manías for example is a very strong song and one that I dedicate to her memory" and she added that "this album is entirely dedicated to her, to celebrate her, to honor her with these exceptional songs". In ''Habítame Siempre'' Thalía worked with various music producers including Cheche Alara, Armando Ávila,
