~~~~~ Lyrics ~~~~~

And when the world got me going crazy I’ll carry on
And it’s all because of you
Because of you

Remember when they told us
You’re not good enough
Then you came into my life
And you changed my world for good

You told me to love myself a bit harder than yesterday
Cause life is too short and we sure got to celebrate

And when the world got me going crazy I’ll carry on
Cause I know I’m strong
And when the world got me going crazy I’ll carry on
And it’s all because of you
Because of you

Remember when they tried to break us
But look at us now
You told me the right things at the right time
You got me feeling wild

Now I love myself much more than I did yesterday
Cause life is too short and we sure got to celebrate

And when the world got me going crazy I’ll carry on
Cause I know I’m strong
And when the world got me going crazy I’ll carry on
And it’s all because of you

I’ll carry on
Despite of the things they’ve said and done
They’ll never kill this fire
Your love will take me higher
It’s all because of you

Because of you
Well, because of you
Because of you I keep on going baby, baby for a brighter day

And when the world got me going crazy I’ll carry on
See I’ll carry on because of you
And when the world got me going crazy, see I will carry on
And it’s all because of you

Because of you
Because of you

Am I the only person who likes this entry?! The 90’s vibes are immaculate. It’s very catchy. It’s a whole banger. WHY IS THIS SO UNDERATED??? 8.5/10

[momadama]

We need the voguing ON STAGE. I BEG you. Without taking away the backing vocalists. The crowd will go WILD.

Gustaph represents all of us that grew up in the 80s and 90s being bullied for being different and carried on because of our chosen friends and family, love everything about this song and it was such a joy watching him at Eurovision, thanks from all my heart ❤

[BiggusNickus]

This song was my favorite this year. Sad it didn't win, yet Gustaph got a new fan right here! Love the 80's NY house vibes.

[musikkritisk]

Millennials, we know these sounds and the nostalgic feeling they generate in us! Great song, a bit too much underrated. He deserves to be in the final for sure. <3

[konstantinossss]

Good luck from Greece 🇬🇷❤️🇧🇪

[S.H.Jurida]

Dark horse! A great entry! Great energy, catchy, he can sing, anazing backing vocalists...

[KamilazWarszawy]

You should have win the ESC, just because of the voguing on scene. Love it, great song anyway. Good job!

[Mike_Caesar]

Very good song! I don't understand why it's so underrated. Hope Belgium will qualify for the final this year for sure!

[Margit]

this, it´s bubbly, has a 90s vibe and so Eurovision! Gustaph is such an amazing singer. He deserves to qualify ❤️ Now all it needs is an amazing act, bot just a singer with 3 backings, we need a SHOW 🤩🥳

[pikosapikos]

The fact that I've always enjoyed this entry since the day it was announced for Eurovision. 😏🕺🇬🇷❤🇧🇪

[djjerome]

I'm definitely getting a 90s house music vibe from this song. I really like the retro feel 👍

[Ro-qkbn]

Belgium to the final, great song.. Love from the Netherlands

[ivanzobenko]

This song is soooo underrated because of the strong national selection. If the song had been chosen internally, it would have been a lot higher in people's tops

[Jmspaiceland]

WOW I LOVE THE 2000'S VIBES
GUSTAPH WILL SLAY 💅
LET'S BELGIUM
🇨🇴❤️🇧🇪

[igorpee]
