Review

The meaning of the song is predictable. It's just a guy trying to gain the love of a girl. He describes what his feelings are and what he's willing to do in order to achieve her love.

It is a very romantic and beautiful song, musically speaking. I like the way Christian and Angela weave the story. This is a 100% mexican song. I guess that's what makes it beautiful. The ranchera is a marvellous genre,

I always opt to not choose explicit songs, especially in this setting. This is a fun song.

We can see the artists perform the song in a little mexican village. We see how Christian tries to reach for the girl in the video, making use of classic scenes, perhaps even stereotypical, about mexican culture.

Please, see more of Christian here
