An esoteric posting here, I'm sure, but I loved her one CD (1998's "Been There") that was distributed in the US and was lucky enough to see her open for Crowded House that year. Have her other two English-language discs ("True Love" and the s/t one), which are nearly as strong as the first. Trying to order this one from her website, which supposedly allows for payment via Paypal; waiting to hear back from them on just how to accomplish that, since the order page looks pretty cumbersome and is virtually all in Swedish.
Track list:
Feel Alive
Blue Day
Folded Into The Grass
Shanti
Real Slow
Perfect Slumber
Bit Of Raw
Doing Alright
Baby Good Night
Wonder What It Feels Like

Here's what her site says about the new CD:
Since her self titled album from 2006, Ebba has released two albums of which both have been in Swedish,”Dylan på svenska” 2007 and “Ta min Vals” 2009. We are therefore especially happy to announce the release of her new English album "Falling Folding Flipping Feeling.”
As the title inclines and as her former albums her new songs touch and awaken strong emotions.
The music is timeless and the lyrics approach words, as Ebba puts it …”to reflect upon the agony of and longing for love as well as the longing of living life at its fullest while working on the art of letting go”.
Two of the songs from the album were written for the the film Happy End, directed by Björn Runge produced for Zenthropa.
“Life has always driven me to the core of feeling and music is one of the art forms of life that allows me to thouch the raw. The art of music is for me to constantly try and find my notion in every expression. I need to be touched to touch as I need to touch to be touched so to speak.”
Falling Folding Flipping Feeling is produced by Andreas Dahlbäck. The album will be released on her own record lable EBOTH Productions (under the license of Cosmos Music Group. And will be found in stores from 17 October 2011.

Wow, I haven't thought of her in years, but I really liked her first two English albums, but I lost track of her after that. She also apparently recorded albums of Bob Dylan and Leonard Cohen songs -- sung in Swedish!

Turns out to have been a breeze to order; just fill in your info on her site and ask them to send a payment request to your Paypal account. CD and shipping from Sweden comes to about $33. BTW, she opened for Neil Finn solo, not Crowded House, back in '98. My memory fails to distinguish sometimes; what a drag it is getting old.
