"Dans ma fusée" ("In my Rocket") is a 2005 song recorded by the French singer Ilona. It was the third single from her debut album Un Monde parfait and was released on 17 October 2005. It was less successful as the two previous singles, but was after all a hit in France where it peaked at number three.

Background and lyrics

The song was composed in Italy and in France by Laurent Jeanne, Mixivan and Domydee and produced by Ivan Russo. Maïlis Mitrecey, Ilona's sister, participated in the background vocals. In the song, Ilona explains she likes to travel in her rocket and mentions various stars and planets.

As for the previous two singles, the music video was produced as an animated feature in which the singer's appears a few seconds, on a giant screen, at the beginning. This video was also included on the DVD Un Monde parfait. A CD maxi, only released in limited edition, was edited by Atollo, on 9 December 2005, about two months after the single release, but only available in limited edition.
