Ooh yeah Sha-la-la-la-la-la, my lady In the sun with your hair undone Can you hear me now calling your name from across the bay A summer's day laughing and a-hiding Chasing love out on Thunder Island Hey, hey, hey, hey (Do-do-do-do, do-do-do, do-do-do, do-do-do-do-do) She was the color of the Indian summer And we shared the hours without number Until one day when the sky turned dark And the winds grew wild Caught by the rain and blinded by the lightning We rode the storm out there on Thunder Island I held her close until the storm passed And we fell down laughing in the wet grass Both our bodies drying in the sunshine, sweet sunshine So sha-la-la-la-la-la, my land In the sun with your dress undone Now every mile away and every day Cuts a little deeper I'll remember the nights in the cool sand Making love out on Thunder Island Hey, hey, hey, hey (Do-do-do-do, do-do-do, do-do-do, do-do-do-do-do) Goodbye, Thunder Island (Do-do-do-do, do-do-do, do-do-do, do-do-do-do-do) (Do-do-do-do, do-do-do, do-do-do, do-do-do-do-do) (Do-do-do-do, do-do-do, do-do-do, do-do-do-do-do) (Do-do-do-do, do-do-do, do-do-do, do-do-do-do-do) (Do-do-do-do, do-do-do, do-do-do, do-do-do-do-do) (Do-do-do-do, do-do-do, do-do-do, do-do-do-do-do) (Do-do-do-do, do-do-do, do-do-do, do-do-do-do-do) (Do-do-do-do, do-do-do, do-do-do, do-do-do-do-do) (Do-do-do-do, do-do-do, do-do-do, do-do-do-do-do) |

Other Possible Songs
Quite a few songs were featured in 2022's leaked videos, however, many are from GTA V and were likely placeholders to a get a feel for the ambiance.
In January 2024, IGN posted an article stating musician T-Pain, who had been active in the GTA V role-play community, was no longer able to participate due to being tapped by Rockstar Games to help out with GTA VI. No details on what exactly his role is, but we can assume T-Pain is either curating music or could possibly be hosting one of the many in-game radio stations.
