"Theje" (Albanian: [ˈθɛjɛ]; transl. "Break it") is a song by Albanian singer and songwriter Alban Ramosaj. The song was written and composed by Ramosaj himself and produced by Marko Polo. It was independently released as a single for digital download and streaming on 3 December 2021. The song is an Albanian-language ethnic ballad combining traditional Albanian instruments and sounds, with its lyrics focusing on the theme of unconditional love. Music critics and fans applauded the song, with praise concentrated on its ethnic nature and instrumentation, as well as Ramosaj's vocal delivery. An accompanying lyric video was premiered to the singer's official YouTube channel simultaneously with the single's release on 3 December.

In late December 2021, Ramosaj competed with "Theje" in the 60th edition of Festivali i Këngës intentionally to represent Albania in the Eurovision Song Contest 2022 in Turin, Italy. During the final, the singer finished in the second place despite being a favourite to win the contest. His performance commenced in black and white and progressed with colours, while the background LED screens displayed thunder and dark imagery.
