Declared ambition: “get past the second semi-final to the final anyway and finish top there”. By the way, Gustav has already listened to all the other songs. “I want to know the meat I have in the cockpit. This is a responsibility I have to use. I feel the need to make the Belgians proud,” it seems. According to him, he can definitely make a difference with his song “Because of You”.
“The song is an instant party, people probably feel good right away. And we’re the only ones in the second semi-final where there’s so much story and intense performance. With us it’s a party and that could turn out well for the public vote.” It will be sorely needed, because this year the professional jury will not vote in the semi-finals and only TV users will decide who goes to the final.
Gustave also believes that he will stand out with his three singers (Chantal Cachala, Monique Harcome and Sandrine van Handenhoven). “For several years now, recorded voices have also been allowed to sing at the Eurovision Song Contest. But we are firmly striving for live vocals. Hence the choice to go there with three female singers. I am very proud of that, the effect of four good voices reinforcing each other.” I am convinced this is an asset.”
“Friendly communicator. Music trailblazer. Internet maven. Twitter buff. Social mediaholic.”
