BECAUSE OF YOU

(7")
Belgian Eurovision Song Contest entry "Because of You" is overwhelmingly a love song. At the same time, "Because of You" is also an ode to those monumental house records from the early 1990s with equally monumental vocals from legends like Martha Was h and CeCe Peniston. It's an unadulterated house anthem that not only encompasses 30 years of music history, but also unabashedly and uncomplicatedly conveys that life is too short not to be yourself and pursue your dreams.

INFO


"When the world got me going crazy, I carry on," Gustaph sings. "And it's all because of you!" Belgian Eurovision Song Contest entry "Because of You" is overwhelmingl y a love song. But not directed to one person. "It is an unabashed love letter t o freedom," said singer and producer Gustaph, who also wrote the song himself wi th theatre producer and fellow musician Jaouad Alloul. "And besides that, of cou rse, it is also an ode to the queer community, my 'chosen family' that has alway s strengthened and supported me."

At the same time, "Because of You" is also an ode to those monumental house records from the early 1990s with equal ly monumental vocals from legends like Martha Wash and CeCe Peniston. By also wo rking with popular synthesizers from that period, Gustaph managed to bring back to life the infectious exuberance of those tracks. "But as irresistible and clea rly still very influential as that era was," says the musician, "the song also r eally does have both feet in the present."

The result is an unadulter ated house anthem that not only encompasses 30 years of music history, but also unabashedly and uncomplicatedly conveys that life is too short not to be yoursel f and pursue your dreams.
