Review

The original song is from the italian artists Sandro Giacobbe and Toto Cutugno.

 

This version of Cristian Castro is almost a mexican sopa opera. The story is about forbidden love. The girl's father does not permit her to have a relationship with Cristian. There are many dramatic dialogues as the song plays.

The video starts with Cristian and his girl arguing in a restaurant. Suddenly she leaves. Then he remembers the beautiful moments they spent together around Mexico City. One of the sweetest ones was when he surprised her with mariachis. Later the story in the cafe continues. When she left the place, her father was there pushing her to get in his car, but she refused, she escaped, and finally, a car ran her over.

 

In this song, you can learn Quantifiers like So many, past verbs like QUERIA, and many Direct Objects.
