Belgium BELGIUM 2023 - Gustaph - Because of You

[ESC United Mod Team]

I was very disappointed in the national final. But tonight Gustaph was just amazing. The staging was done with so much taste and he was excellent. One of the best performances of the night. He really does know everything about eurovision and he did use all his experience to elevate this song to the max.
The moment where he says well look at us now with the staging was just great and his reaction at the end was so sincere. Loved it

Can't wait for these 150+ jury points and hope he gets some love from the televoters as well.

Gustaph delivered tonight. And also his backing singers, they can learn you a thing or two about timing.. Incredibly in sync. Staging was fresh and bright, the black/white+pink works great. Beat got the crowd going.. Everything just works.

And the best thing is that Gustaph is such a humble, down to earth and sweet guy. You really want him to do well. And he did.

He broke the „stairs on stage will make you fail“-spell. Well done!

 

[Biste]

It's been a long time since I have been excited for my country in the final. While the last years we did not send bad songs per, you knew they wouldn't go far (in the final). But I so hope we are getting another top 10 result at least here. But there is so much competition for those spots in the ranking, that I am stressed he might crash & burn as well.

 

[Milos-BC]

One of the best performances of the evening. Loved it. I was certain he will make it even before I saw how it will work live, but after this performance, a qualification was set in stone.

Certainly one of the biggest dark horses in the final as well.

 

[krivac]

A huge improvement from the last years funeral songs. Go Gustaph!

 

[Looren]

The man that finally made me like one of our entries, for once I felt joy when we qualified, didn't happen since Blanche

Thank you Gustaph and best of luck in the final

 

[Decayingbooks]

I really love when countries go the extra mile to support their singers❤

 

[alca]

I promise I was not part of the Greek jury! Super happy though

 

[MopManMoss]

What started as Stockholm syndrome induced shitposting from the surprising results of eurosong 2023 became a genuine love and admiration of Gustaph and his Eurovision entry, he should really be proud of what he has achieved and the message that he has promoted tonight

Also it pays to shitpost so make sure you shitpost your way to money next year people

 

[NeoTen]

Best male voice of the night. Little bit worse than the SF, but he should not dwell on his result.

It was so unexpected in the beginning but he got it. So proud of Gustaph tonight. He did his best with an amazing attitude and he deserved it.

Somebody could imagine in January 2023 that Gustaph would be in 7th place?! AHAAHH

 

[gigi_copp3]

Proud of him, at last. He is so sweet

 

[harey]

I'm so happy for Belgium, even if not my favourite it was so nice to see him grab some jury points!

 

[Kant1]

This was so overrated by the juries

 

[SpiritofKeiino]

One of the few results of the night that I'm pleased with, I loved this song and artist.

 

[Bobjan FR]

Dark horse of the year !

 

[JenJen94]

This went from me being like "why did this win eurosong" to "I GET IT" this season

He absolutely smashed his performance in the final and his 7th place was well deserved-very catchy song, and a strong performance. I noticed alot of casuals also loving this. Huge congrats to Gustaph-and some 12 points to him too!

It's wild to realize this is the second best result for a Flemish entry ever, but I'm so glad for them!
