Moving like that release

“Moving Like That” is an upbeat pop and reggaeton-infused single released by Omar Rudberg on February 5, 2022. The song is notably his second solo entry into Melodifestivalen, Sweden's national selection for the Eurovision Song Contest. 

Melodifestivalen 2022 Performance

• The Act: Omar performed the song in the first heat (Deltävling 1) at the Avicii Arena in Stockholm on February 5, 2022. His performance featured energetic choreography with house dancers Lamin Camara Holmén and Kenny Lantz.
• The Result: He finished in 5th place out of seven contestants, receiving 21,177 votes (approximately 10% of the total). As a result, he was eliminated from the competition and did not advance to the final.
• Technical Issue: Due to a malfunction with the Melodifestivalen app during his heat, only telephone voting was counted, which some fans believe impacted the final outcome. 

Production & Lyrics

• Songwriters: The track was co-written by Omar Rudberg himself alongside Gustav Blomberg, Amanda Kongshaug, and Kristin Marie.
• Style: It is a dance-oriented track featuring a mix of English and Spanish lyrics, focusing on the irresistible feeling of watching someone dance.
• Official Video: The Official Music Video, directed by Florian Dezfoulian, was released simultaneously with the single and features heavy choreography in a stylized warehouse setting.
