The music video for "Tú Y Yo" was directed by Antti Jokinen and shot in The Bronx, New York. In the video, Thalía sings in the streets, and also visits a music store, plays the guitar and drives a motorbike. In this video, Thalía's appearance is more aggressive. The video used Thalia's first version of the song with added vocals during the guitar drift. This version can still be heard when aired on TV, unlike its online streams. The same year she made a second version of the video with Kumbia Kings, for the cumbia version of the song, this time directed by Leche and Antti Jokinen.
