Omar Rudberg released his cover, actually three versions, of “I’m so excited”. The single was originally released by “The Pointer Sisters”, being composed by Anita Pointer, June Pointer, Ruth Pointer and Trevor Lawrence. Being released in 1982 is one of the classic songs of the ’80s and Omar decided to perform it during the 2023 QX Galan a few weeks ago.
QX Galan is an award ceremony by the LGBT Swedish magazine QX, that notes achievements of the LGBT community.
