Tout Oublier Lyrics in English Angèle , Romeo Elvis

Below, I translated the lyrics of the song Tout Oublier by Angèle from French to English.
It doesn't exist without its opposite
That seems easy to find
Happiness only exists to please
I want it
Well, I'm starting to doubt
That I ever really dreamed of it
Is it a desire? Sometimes I feel obliged
Spleen isn't trendy anymore
It's not complicated to be happy
Spleen isn't trendy anymore
It's not complicated
Everything, you'd have to forget everything
To believe in it, you'd have to forget everything
We play, but now I've played too much
This happiness, if I want it, I'll have it
It doesn't exist without its opposite
A youth full of feelings
Boredom is unconditional
I can feel the discomfort of the people who dance
Try to forget that you're alone
Old memory like ADSL
And if everybody's left you
It happened after the sales
Everything, you'd have to forget everything
To believe in it, you'd have to forget everything
We play, but now I've played too much
This happiness, if I want it, I'll have it
Spleen isn't trendy anymore
It's not complicated to be happy
Spleen isn't trendy anymore
It's not complicated
Outro
Spleen isn't trendy anymore
It's not complicated to be happy
It's simple, just be happy
If you wanted to, you'd be
Close your eyes, forget that you're still alone
Forget that she hurt you
Forget that he cheated on you
Forget that you lost everything you had
It's simple, just be happy
If you wanted to, you'd be
Everything, you'd have to forget everything
To believe in it, you'd have to forget everything
We play, but now I've played too much
This happiness, if I want it, I'll have it
Everything, you'd have to forget everything
To believe in it, you'd have to forget everything
We play, but now I've played too much
This happiness, if I want it, I'll have it
Spleen isn't trendy anymore
It's not complicated to be happy
Spleen isn't trendy anymore
It's not complicated
Spleen isn't trendy anymore
It's not complicated to be
It's simple, just be happy
If you wanted to, you'd be
It's simple, just be happy
If you wanted to, you'd be
It's simple, just be happy
If you wanted to, you'd be

SONG MEANING

“Tout oublier” pairs Belgian pop queen Angèle with her rapper brother Roméo Elvis for a sparkling pop-rap duet that winks at modern society’s obsession with instant happiness. On the surface, the lyrics repeat a simple recipe: Forget everything, just be happy, it is not complicated. The singers list the usual self-help mantras—close your eyes, ignore heartbreak, erase every bad memory—while a sunny beat bounces underneath.

Listen a little closer, and the song flips into irony. Angèle wonders if real joy can truly exist “without its opposite,” questions whether the pressure to smile is just another trend, and admits she has “played the game too much.” By chanting that “spleen is no longer in fashion,” the duo pokes fun at a world that treats sadness like last season’s clothes. Tout oublier is both a catchy anthem and a sly critique, reminding us that chasing flawless happiness might mean erasing the very feelings that make us human.
