A song in Spanish to practice "gustar".

The song from Manu Chao called Me gustas is quite simple and repetitive and is great to practice the verb "gustar" which has a very different construction from other verbs. However one line in the song is not suitable for teenagers so I found this great video where the unsuitable part is deleted!

I also found lots of .pdf resources on the Web with activities on how to use the song with students such as http://formespa.rediris.es/canciones/pdfs/chao_megusta.pdf

(download)

Furthermore, Sherry Amorocho wrote a very interesting post on how she used the song in her class with Google Docs and Flickr.

On the whole, students really like this song because it relates to them and  for me, it is a good way to reinforce "gustar".

What about you? Have you used other Spanish songs with your students?
