How are the lyrics so melancholic yet the sound is so expansive and positive, I love that about it. Can't get enough of that chorus.
Thank you @OmarRudberg 🤍

Happy anniversary to our group chat!
One year ago, I asked a few other Omar Rudberg @OmarRudberg fans if they would be interested in creating a shared space where we could help each other find livestreams of his concerts and festival performances.
At the time, Omar was preparing for a summer full of festivals, and within the fandom it had already become common that someone would go live on Instagram or TikTok during the shows. During his February 2025 ENF tour, every concert was livestreamed by fans, but finding the streams was often stressful. Sometimes we didn’t know who was streaming until the very last minute.
So we decided to organize ourselves better.
What started as a simple group chat to share livestream information slowly became something much bigger.
At first we mostly talked about Omar and the joy we all share because of him and his music. Over time, our conversations grew beyond that. We started sharing thoughts, everyday life, struggles, happiness, and pieces of ourselves.
The original purpose of the group worked incredibly well. Together we managed to find livestreams for practically every single summer festival show, including almost every concert during Omar’s time supporting Zara Larsson’s Midnight Sun Tour in November 2025. Out of all those performances, we only missed one.
What made it even more special was how everyone contributed. Whenever one of us attended a concert, we coordinated together beforehand about who would livestream for the others. People genuinely wanted to make the experience accessible for the whole fandom, not just for themselves and not just for our group.
Sometimes we went a step further. For a few festival shows, we crowdfunded tickets and/or travel costs together, so that one of us could attend and livestream the concert for everyone else watching from around the world. Amazing!
I also want to give a special thank you to @dumdreams for all the help with organizing materials, flyers, videos, teasers, schedules, and updates throughout this past year. So much work went into making sure information reached the fandom and that as many people as possible had the opportunity to experience the concerts live. I truly could not have done all of this alone, and I’m incredibly grateful for the teamwork and support.
Today, we are a group of almost 50 people from all over the world: Asia, Australia, the USA, Europe and South America. We are all different ages too, from teenagers to people over 50 years old. We created a space where people from different cultures, countries, generations, and time zones are equal. A space where everyone is welcomed exactly as they are.
Some of us are now planning to meet in Stockholm later this summer for a 5 day Airbnb mayhem. We will do a little Omar pilgrimage and visit for example Kaggeholm together.
What began because of one artist, turned into real friendships. Not just online acquaintances, but genuine human connections. We support each other through difficult moments, celebrate happy ones together, and make each other laugh every single day.
I want to say thank you to everyone in that group. Thank you for being such wonderful humans. Thank you for your friendship, your openness, your kindness, and your trust.
Cheers to another wonderful year together. Now we just need @OmarRudberg to drop the dates and we can start hyping again.
LOVE YA!
