From this moment on, the video combines shots of <strong>Maruja<\/strong> dancing in her flamenco dress with close ups of <strong>Dal\u00ed<\/strong> and his mustache. The <strong>video clip<\/strong> was filmed in 1971 for a program on Spanish TV and had international repercussion. Despite that, you can only find very old versions\u00a0of the <strong>video<\/strong> online, in black and white.
