Wow! If you're looking for an enchanting song that will take you back, well you've found it. "Real Love," is one of those songs I just can relate to my childhood because it's so fantastical in the sense that it feels safe, warm and vulnerable. Of course, all these in a positive context. Like it's upbeat and something you can jam out to because it's laying out the foundation of what the world has to offer. I know that the song centers on something completely different, but I've kind of dismissed that in favor of my interpretation. The instrumental during the post chorus is my favorite part when she repeats "Real Love," over and over again. It's fun and inspiring and makes me want to get up and dance it out.
Favorite Lyrics
"I'm not even scared about it
All I want is real, real love
But I don't know a thing about it
All I want is real, real love"
Side note: the above lyrics make me think about Taylor Swift's "Fearless" album, because essentially she's saying how she doesn't even care if it's new and exciting, she's ready for it and tired of the hesitation. That fiery, aspirational capitol you got going on Ms. Jepsen.
