Originally released in 2010 by French singer-songwriter Zaz, Je veux became an instant anthem across Europe with its playful, jazz-tinged rebellion against materialism. With lyrics declaring “I want love, joy, and good humor,” the track offered a soulful manifesto for choosing happiness and human connection over wealth and status.

Now, 15 years later, Je veux returns to the dancefloor in a fresh, emotional afro-house rendition by Toulouse-based producer Sonaba and Colombian rising talent Felipe Allenn. The cover blends the timeless message of the original with a modern melodic house touch — smooth, transportive, and brimming with feeling.

“This is a track full of emotion,” says Sonaba, who recently made waves with his hit Sun Is Dark and landed spots on playlists by Martin Garrix and Radio FG. “The simplicity of the lyrics and the power of the voice really inspired me. It’s a song you can lose yourself in, whether you’re driving or just taking in the moment.”
The track’s dreamy, romantic tone is matched by a chill but club-ready production style that reflects the duo’s global influences — from Sonaba’s French roots to Felipe Allenn’s Latin American groove.

The result is a heartfelt reinterpretation of a French classic that speaks just as powerfully to today’s listeners as it did over a decade ago — now with a beat to match.
