"REAL" is a love song written like an outlaw movie. Nathy Peluso opens with "Esto se siente real, nunca tuve algo tan caro" [This feels real, I never had anything so precious], where caro means "dear" or "precious", not just "expensive". Then she plans her getaway: "Te juro que me voy a escapar / Y que si me atrapan, que sea a tu lado" [I swear I'm going to escape / And if they catch me, let it be by your side]. Even if they shoot her, they're too late, because his love is already "en el pecho clavado" [nailed into my chest].
The best part is that she knows it's a bad idea. She swore on her knees she would beat love and never make that mistake again, and here she is: "Es en contra de todo, pero te necesito ahora" [It goes against everything, but I need you now]. In the bridge she calls him flaco and nene, two very Argentine pet names (literally "skinny" and "baby"), and says she's the bullet in his gun. Dramatic? Absolutely. That's the fun of it.
