Julieta is one of my favorites. Very talented, US born (Long Beach) but raised in Tijuana and her lyrics are great...

"This video is not available in your country due to copyright restrictions."

Pffft.

"Eres para mi" plays here though.

Here's "Me voy"

Heh, for once I can watch in my country! But yeah, I hate it when that happens.
Cool video ... I hadn't seen it, though the song (along with Eres Para Mi) is played pretty often here. I enjoy her music.
