Belgian singer-songwriter Stromae's lyricism and creativity are well on display in this video for "Ta fête," a single off his chart-topping album Racine Carrée. "Ta fête" was the official song of the Belgian Red Devils at 2014's World Cup, and Stromae had some fun preparing with the team...

In his brilliant song "Papaoutai" (Dad, Where Are You?), Stromae depicts the endless game of hide and seek that some children play with their fathers. Stromae (né Paul Van Haver), who was raised by his mother, lost his own father in 1994 to the Rwandan Genocide.

In the music video for "Tous les mêmes" (All the Same) Stromae impersonates both the man and the woman in a stormy relationship. He wants children. She doesn't want any because she thinks "men are all the same" and can't be trusted to raise them. Stromae concludes the song with a beautifully choreographed dance equal to none—except for the late Michael Jackson, perhaps.

Belgian singer Stromae sings "Je cours" (I Run) from his first studio album, Cheese. The song's cryptic lyrics seem to be a reflection on his music career.
