"Ta fête" (French for Your Party) is a song by Belgian singer Stromae, released 3 February 2014. On 17 March 2014 it was announced that it would become the official song for the Belgian football selection at the 2014 World Cup.[1] The music video was directed by Lieven Van Baelen and released on YouTube on 17 June 2014.[2] The setting is reminiscent of The Hunger Games.[3][4] However, it also has deep rooted connections with The Running Man (1987 film), which shares a similar story of an audience watching a man run through a game and having to fight new armed competitors as they appear eventually gaining freedom, much like the protagonist of the music video.
