The music video was released late August 2013. In a beach, Royce falls in love for a young woman and sings to her about how he feels. The video ends with the woman turning out to be a mermaid. The song reached number one on multiple Billboard Latin music charts. As of February 2017, the video has received over 870 million views on YouTube.
Te Dar um Beijo
In 2014, Royce and Brazilian musician Michel Teló recorded a Portuguese-language version in sertanejo under the title "Te Dar Um Beijo".
For marketing purposes outside Brazil, a Portuguese language version was launched as Prince Royce featuring Michel Teló.
In a report in Billboard, the collaboration came together when Telo reached out to Royce's camp because he wanted to record "Darte un Beso" in Portuguese. Royce said: "They sent me a rough demo and I said, 'why don't we just do it together?'".
