"Me Gustas Tú" is the second single from Manu Chao's second solo album, Próxima Estación: Esperanza. One of the artist's most popular songs worldwide, Its lyrics have a simple but rhythmic structure and are mostly in Spanish with parts of the chorus in French. The song, as well as two other tracks from the same album, "La primavera" and "Infinita tristeza", feature the same background music. In fact, on the album, "La primavera" fades and leads into "Me Gustas Tú".
A music video was produced for the song in Urrao, Colombia, featuring Manu Chao dancing and singing the lyrics while some spare words from it appear on the screen, always surrounded by a frame of colourful patterns. A blonde woman (Spanish actress Paz Gómez) dances beside him and sings at the end of the song.
