Susanne Sundfør - Náttsǫngr (Live at Oslo Opera House, Nordic Council Prize Gala 2018) 

blómi, her new album was released last friday and this one is in it. Now it's called 'náttsongr'

She said on instagram that this song is going to be on her next album.

@@josephchen2167 awwwwwhhhhh thank you so much 💜

She sang this at her recent concert in Stavanger. Yes, I'd expect it to be on her new album. Fingers crossed anyway, it's beautiful! 😍

OK I've listened again,I get it this time, it actually hit me in the feels. My word Susanne is incredible.

I highly doubt it looking at her recent album release history: 23 March 2012, 16 February 2015 and 8 September 2017. An average waiting time of about 2 years and 8 months between albums when excluding the shipping delays. It's only been 1 year and 2 months so far since Music for People in Trouble was released. Besides, 'The Sound of War', 'Reincarnation', and 'Mantra' from MFPIT were all on her setlist back in late 2015, nearly 2 years before appearing on the album. As far as I can tell, 'Sleepwalking' is the only unreleased song that's showed up on her setlist this year, supposedly first performed at a festival on June 17th 2018. It's also worth noting that she in August 2018 told Financial Times she would be releasing a live album from her MFPIT tour, recorded at her show at Barbican Centre in London. It was expected to be released 'later this year', but nothing seems to have been announced after that, so I wouldn't hold my breath. Assuming it is released sometime in early 2019, I don't see her next studio album appearing until anytime before Q1 of 2020 at the earliest. Of course these are only speculations, she rarely speaks to the media and has a tendency to keep most new tracks 'secret' ahead of a release, so it's hard to know for sure.

​ Winter Bird I agree with most of your analysis. Though, I think your expected average time is a bit too large if you look at TB-TSV (2 years). I assume the bigger waiting time between TSV and TLS was largely due to Susanne also producing everything by herself. And between TLS-MFPIT she was overworked. Nonetheless, the release of this song is indeed no definite indication of any album coming any time soon. For example, she performed Memorial four years before official release on TLS iirc. I totally forgot about the live MFPIT album. If that's still on board, I fully agree with a prediction of Q1/Q2 2020 - otherwise I could see something happening Q3 2019 (earliest). But yeah, we're completely in the dark about this, she hasn't even mentioned this song or performance once on her social media afaik.

Isn't this tune a Cover?

@@Battlenude Sleepwalking is an original song. It was written by Susanne. Was introduced as a new song at this show, you can see her credited as the writer at 00:13 in this video. Also referred to as a newly-penned song in several concert reviews from this year such as: www.buzzmag.co.uk/festivals/susanne-sundfor-novo-amor-live-review/

Not yet. This performance is a year after her latest studio album. A new album comes out in a month, so maybe it'll be on there..?

Yes. It's now in her new album blómi, with the title 'náttsongr' :)
