Sabotage release

October 18, 2024

"Sabotage" is the second single from Omar Rudberg’s debut EP, Every Night Fantasy. Released on September 27, 2024, the track marked a significant sonic shift into 80s-inspired synth-pop.

 

Key Details

  • Production: The song was produced by Joy Deb and Linnea Deb, the Swedish powerhouse duo behind several Eurovision hits.
  • Live Debut: He performed the song live for the first time during his Every Night Fantasy Tour, which kicked off in London in October 2024.

 

Chart & Career Impact

  • The single was heavily promoted following his Rockbjörnen sweep (where he won four awards, including Artist of the Year).
  • It became a staple on Swedish radio (P3 and NRJ) and solidified his transition from "TV star" to a serious global pop contender under his new deal with Elektra/Atlantic Records.
