StockJADE's 'Angel of My Dreams' Is Going Viral All Over Again — Thanks to One Runway Walk
2026-10-20
What song is going viral after the Victoria's Secret show?
“Angel of My Dreams” by JADE — the solo artist Jade Thirlwall, formerly of Little Mix — is going viral right now after it soundtracked Kylie Jenner’s Fantasy Bra moment at the 2026 Victoria’s Secret Fashion Show. The 2024 song is suddenly stuck in a whole new audience’s head, and JADE herself has been sharing clips of the runway moment on her Instagram Stories.
If you watched the show and have had one chorus looping ever since, you are far from alone. This is the story of how a two-year-old debut single got a second, much bigger life in about thirty seconds of runway.
What happened at the show?
The Fantasy Bra is Victoria’s Secret’s biggest set-piece — and it had not appeared on the runway since 2018. For its return at the 2026 show in Los Angeles, Kylie Jenner made her Victoria’s Secret debut wearing it, walking out in white feathered wings as “Angel of My Dreams” played.
Coverage of the show from multiple outlets identifies the same pairing: Jenner’s entrance, the Fantasy Bra, and JADE’s track underneath it. Grazia’s recap describes Jenner strutting out to the lyrics of “Angel of My Dreams,” and V Magazine’s review notes the stage lit up to the sound of the song as Jenner took centre stage. That placement matters. Producers do not put just any song under the night’s most photographed walk — they pick the one they want replayed, clipped and searched for afterwards. That is exactly what happened.
Why is the song blowing up now?
First, the moment was built to be clipped. A famous debut, a returning $50 million centrepiece, and a chorus that literally sings about an angel — the song and the show were a perfect thematic match, and short clips of the walk spread quickly across social feeds.
Second, a lot of viewers did not know the song. For Little Mix fans, “Angel of My Dreams” is already a landmark: JADE’s first solo release. For everyone who met it for the first time on that runway, it arrived sounding brand new, which is the ideal recipe for a search-and-stream spike. Just Jared’s viral explainer, published October 20, opens with the line now echoing around the internet: if the song is stuck in your head right now, you’re not alone.
Third, JADE amplified it herself. She has shared videos of the runway moment on her Instagram Stories, putting the clip in front of her own followers and effectively confirming this is her moment too — not just background music for someone else’s.
What is “Angel of My Dreams” actually about?
The song is not a simple love song, and that tension is the point. In the chorus, JADE sings: “Angel of my dreams / I will always love you and hate you, it’s not fair / It’s so bittersweet / I will always want you and need you, you don’t care / You don’t.”
Read plainly, it is about wanting someone — or something — that does not want you back in the same way: love and resentment at the same time, held in the same breath. That bittersweet push-and-pull is why the track works both as a pop single and, unexpectedly, as runway music. Under Jenner’s walk it sounds glamorous. Through headphones, it sounds like an argument you keep having with yourself.
When was the song released?
“Angel of My Dreams” was released on July 19, 2024. It was JADE’s first venture into solo music after Little Mix announced an indefinite hiatus, which followed their Confetti Tour in 2022. The track served as the lead single from her debut studio album, That’s Showbiz Baby, which was released in 2025.
That timeline is what makes this week’s surge so striking. This is not a new release riding a launch campaign. It is a debut single from two summers ago finding its biggest mainstream moment long after its first chart run — the kind of second life that only a perfectly placed sync in a huge live spectacle can create.
What’s next?
Expect the clips to keep circulating while the show’s highlights are still fresh, and expect plenty of new listeners to go from the chorus they heard on the runway to the full album it introduced. For JADE, the takeaway is simple: a solo career launched in 2024 just got introduced, all over again, to one of the largest fashion audiences on the planet — in the exact thirty seconds the whole show was designed around.
