- Hello, I'm Angele,
and I'm gonna play a game, song association, with Elle.
I will be given a word and I'll have 10 seconds
to sing or rap that word in a song.
Oh, and I'm really bad at handling the pressure,
so I know it's gonna be awful, let's be honest.
But it's okay.
Worth it.
But before we get to the game,
please make sure you listen to my album,
which is called Nonante-Cing.
(sputters)
I'm ready.
Never.
(clock ticking)
So "Love Again" from Dua Lipa is
♪ I never thought that I would find a way out ♪
♪ I never thought my heart beat so loud ♪
♪ I can't believe there's something left in my chest anymore ♪
♪ But goddamn you got me in love again ♪
Smoke.
I have, in French.
(Angele singing in French)
(bell ringing)
This is Demons.
It's talking about anxiety,
and I'm saying like, anxiety is like fighting with me
and then left in a smoke.
Secret.
(clock ticking)
Secret in French,
it's like the same word.
(clock ticking)
(buzzer buzzing)
Like my favorite song is "That Look You Give that Guy"
from Eels, and this song is like,
really means a lot to me because
I used to listen to it when I was younger.
And I was really impressed by the melody and the lyrics,
the chords that are like quite simple, I mean,
very logical chords, very old fashioned
kind of a song,
but I love it.
And it's like, it's still very actual,
like the way it's arranged and how it sounds.
It sounds very new.
So I guess it's a very, very good song
because it's not getting old.
♪ That look you give that guy I wanna see ♪
♪ Looking right at me ♪
♪ If I could be that guy instead of me ♪
♪ I'll never let you down ♪
Fever.
This one is easy,
but I'm not gonna take the easy way with Dua Lipa.
I'm just gonna take the other one.
Only know the fever word, like.
♪ Fever ♪
(bell ringing)
♪ Na, na, na, na, na, na, na, na, na, na, na ♪
This is because I speak French,
so I don't know all the lyrics by heart.
Working with Dua Lipa has been a very cool experience
because I met her as a person and as a friend.
And obviously, we get along and we match,
we have the same agent,
we have a lot of things to tell to each other.
It was a great connection to work together
and to see how it goes to mix French and English
to make this song together.
Eyes.
(clock ticking)
(Angele singing in French)
(bell ringing)
(Angele singing in foreign language)
This is, (speaking in French),
means I want your eyes in French.
Music.
♪ Please don't stop the music ♪
(buzzer dings)
♪ Do, do, do, do, do, do, do, do ♪
Sorry, there's not so many lyrics after.
Number.
Actually, I could invent the song in French
and you wouldn't know, but I'm not gonna do it.
(Angele laughs)
No, that's.
(buzzer beeps)
My dream collaboration will be Ella Fitzgerald
because I'm a huge fan of her voice and her story.
And I feel like she is, she's amazing.
Her voice is really giving me,
like making me very emotional every time I listen to her.
And I think I listen to Ella Fitzgerald once a day minimum.
So I would love to.
Even, I mean, not even sing with her,
but just hearing her singing in real,
in real time that, I mean,
she has like the most beautiful voice ever for me, so.

♪ Sailing over a cardboard sea ♪
♪ But it wouldn't be make believe ♪
♪ If you believed in me ♪
Taxi.
(clock ticks)
(sings in French)
(buzzer dings)
(sings in French)
That's a song called Taxi,
and it's one of my songs.
It's talking about a kind of a fight,
or right after a fight,
or an an argument when you go home late
and you're in the cab and you're like looking around
and not talking to each other.
This kind of creepy, awkward vibe.
I'm talking about.
Mad.

(buzzer dings)
Hit me baby, one more time
Animal.
(sings in French)
(buzzer dings)
(sings in French)
And it's in a song called, (speaks in French),
which is talking about sexism and the fact that
sometimes women are treated as animals.
And that's the first phrase of the song.
My writing process is to write a lot of things down
and to just write the idea
and the thing I want to talk about.
And then, sometimes some, some phrase appears
and I don't know why, but I just pick some word,
what I find interesting, and then I'll see how it goes.
And also, it depends like if I'm writing,
if I have a melody in mind,
or if I'm writing and then put the melody,
it all depends.
Everything.
I have another song that I wrote in French,
which is called (speaks in French),
but two means everything in French.
So it's like.
(sings in French)
(bell dings)
(signs in French)
It's very cool to work with my brother
'cause we obviously, we grew up together
and we know each other very well.
And it was crazy because it was like my first success
and the first song that really ran crazy.
And it was cool to live this with my brother.
And we did this video shoot, video clip,
on the beach with some ski suits.
It was very fun.
It was like very, the idea that I had of this emotion
when you wanna forget everything.
Special.
(clock ticks)
I don't know.
(buzzer rings)
Well, I didn't felt that bad,
but let's, let's be honest.
I wasn't that good, so.
It's okay.
I thought I'd be less good.
Yeah, I will.
I will play this game again, but only in French
will be easier for me.
Thank you so much for watching
my song association with Elle.
Don't forget to listen to my new album Nonante-Cing.
