Wat Kan Mij Het Schelen – literally “What do I care” – is Susanna’s cheeky Dutch-language declaration of emotional independence. With a playful shrug she clears out her ex’s belongings, reminds him that the sun will still rise, and cheerfully waves him off to his new love. The tone is light, almost conversational, yet every line drips with confidence: “Wees maar niet bang ik red me best / Ik ben sterker dan de rest” (“Don’t worry, I’ll be fine / I’m stronger than the rest”).
Beneath the catchy melody lies a message that break-ups need not be tragic. Susanna admits she can forgive, but she refuses to forget; the experience simply fuels her forward momentum. By the final chorus she is dancing out the door, owning her freedom and inviting listeners to do the same. It is an empowering reminder that when a relationship ends, it can feel good to rediscover yourself, pack up the past, and greet tomorrow with a smile.
