“Duele” is a bittersweet cocktail of catchy reggaeton rhythms and raw heartbreak. Reik joins forces with Wisin and Yandel to tell the story of a love that slipped through their fingers, leaving only perfume in the air and an ache that refuses to fade. In verse after verse, the singers admit they have tried everything—laughing, crying, even praying—but nothing silences the echo of that goodbye. Each chorus pounds like a pulse: “Duele quererte así, duele extrañarte así”… a simple confession that loving someone who is already gone hurts more than words can say.
The song paints vivid images of an empty house still soaked in her scent, sleepless nights, and a heart that feels frozen. While the beat keeps you swaying, the lyrics dive deep into regret, longing, and the desperate hope of rewinding time. “Duele” reminds listeners that sometimes the most dance-worthy tracks also carry the heaviest emotions, turning the dance floor into a place where we can move our bodies and mend our broken hearts at the same time.
