Julieta Venegas, Ser and Commands, Close activities

Eres para mí--This video is clean and cute and the song is snappy. A great reinforce of SER. BUT, in the interest of full disclosure, I get mixed feedback from the kiddos on this song. Some LOVE it, some DON'T.

Si quieres andar conmigo—Download me, find my lyrics and make me into a close! I have irregular tú commands, and the kids will ask to sing along after hearing this song once.

How to explain such depths of emotion and sadness in words? How to make right so many wrongs that clutter human history?
