Music video



Development

A music video for the song was filmed in June 2010 in a desert near Los Angeles.[http://www.paymentscr.com/tag/ciudad-de-los-angeles/ Wisin & Yandel grabando video de Estoy Enamorado] Paymentscr.com Retrieved September 21, 2010 It was directed by long-time Wisin & Yandel collaborator Jessy Terrero. It premiered on August 19, 2010. A music video featured additional vocals from Larry Hernandz was also filmed.

Synopsis

The lyrics that have to do with the expression of love toward his partner are combined in the video with shocking images of a couple being arrested by the Border Patrol while the husband's young granddaughter looks on stunned at her grandparents being arrested. One of the police officers in the video is portrayed by Jesse Garcia.

While they reiterate the phrase "Estoy Enamorado", there are scenes of a nighttime chase in the desert located on the border between Mexico and the United States. As a corollary some Latino people, presumably Mexicans, living in the U.S. literally fade from their daily lives. It concludes with a crowd protesting the persecution of immigrants, while lifting banners and shouting: "Si se Puede!" (Yes we can!)

In the end, the screen goes dark and in white lyrics it reads as follows:



"Creemos en la proteccin de los derechos de todo ser humano. La Ley SB1070 representa una violacion de esos derechos y una injusticia contra la integridad de nuestras comunidades. En nuestra unin esta la fuerza. Unmosnos. Recuerda en este mundo todos somos iguales!"


("We believe in protecting the rights of every human being. SB 1070 Law represents a violation of those rights and an injustice to the integrity of our communities. In our union there is strength. Unite. Remember, in this world, we are all equal!")
