La Thune Lyrics in English Angèle

La Thune (slang for “the money”) is Angèle’s cheeky pop anthem about our modern-day obsession with cash, clout and clicks. Over a bouncy beat she paints a neon picture of people who only perk up for “la thune” and “la fame,” hustling for Instagram likes, designer drinks and one more photo that proves they exist. Yet behind the glossy feed sits a lonely user staring at a screen, forever wondering what others think and never truly moving anyone.

The Belgian singer is not just pointing fingers — she admits she is tempted by the same game. This self-awareness turns the track into both a satire and a confession, asking À quoi bon? (“What’s the point?”). Under the playful melody lies a serious message: money and fame can feel thrilling in the moment, but they rarely fill the silence when the phone is off and the followers are gone. Angèle invites us to dance, laugh at ourselves, and maybe log out for a while before the chase for validation swallows us whole.
