Hoje meu coração está partido, chorando... sei que Marie precisava descansar, mas nunca queremos a partida de quem amamos. Roxette fez parte da minha vida, da minha adolescência, juventude e hoje meus filhos, ainda crianças, já ouvem as músicas deles.. sabem identificar a voz da Marie.. uma voz que nunca se calará, porque suas músicas são eternas. Me perguntam porque choro, pois Marie nem sabia da minha existência.. e eu respondo.. ela sempre soube da minha existência, pois faço parte das pessoas que admiram seu trabalho, e ela tinha um carinho enorme pelos fãs. Hoje ela encanta os anjos com sua bela voz. O mundo hoje ecoou as músicas do Roxette, uma forma de homenagem e carinho na partida de uma pessoa linda chamada Marie Fredriksson.
Remembrance book for Marie Fredriksson
Dear fellow friends, dear fans of Marie Fredriksson, dear Roxette fans, dear kind people in this world,
our friend Marie has passed away on December 9, and many, many people in the world are heartbroken and would like to express their feelings. Not everyone can do so on the social media, not everyone can do so by coming to Sweden and signing the official remembrance book laid out in Stockholm.
We want to collect your thoughts, your grieve, but also your finest memories with Marie here. Please write down what you always wanted to say to her, we will collect each single entry of yours, put them into one single book and send it over to Marie’s family to show them how much she made this world better through you.
Thank you.
[All entries made before January 1, 2020 were taken over for the book. You will still be able to add your messages now but we cannot consider them for the book to Marie’s family anymore as it has been printed by now.]
The Daily Roxette had one copy of the book printed early January 2020 and handed it over to Marie Dimberg, Roxette’s manager and a very good friend of Marie Fredriksson and her family, in Göteborg on January 20, 2020. The printed version of the book is nearly 800 pages thick and it has a white cover. Its title “Tack för allt Marie” (Thank you for everything Marie) is written in silver and red letters on its sleeve.
Here you see some quick photos of the book, sadly there has never been a chance to take proper photos of this one copy as it arrived just before the evening we headed to Göteborg for the “En kväll för Marie Fredriksson” show.
If you are interested, you can download a simplified version (the printed version contains a few more blank pages to separate the chapters, for instance) of the book with all entries right here.
The entries are sorted alphabetically by names, this file is also searchable.
Entries with non-latin character sets are at the very end of the book. Most URLs have been removed as they make little sense in a printed book.

Dear Marie, your Angel an Strong voice sometimes made me crying, and sometimes gave me the energy to face the difficulties of my life. My brother listened for the first in our family your beatiful songs in the '80th and I with him, in a little country of Italy. Yes, your voice was arrived also here. I will remember with love like one of my favourites singer. Maybe now you are a Star in the Sky. Good bless your family in this sad moment. With love.
I spent my childhood imitating Marie. I cut my barbie's hair just like hers and always wanted to be like her. Her voice and her music has always been part of my life. Thank you, Marie! You're a queen. And your music is forever. Rest in peace...love from Brazil ??
Marie's voice and music has been in my life for as long as I can remember. I had every Roxette tape and have sat many hours singing along with her whether in front of my radio as a child or in my car as an adult. My ultimate was getting to see her in a Roxette concert in South Africa. What an amazing artist. A legend!
I wrote this poem of my love for you, your voice, impact on my life and your incredible talent:
The voice I listen to at my best and worst times.
The voice that lifts my soul and can make me cry,
Without, really, knowing why.
The voice that carries my troubles away.
The voice that makes me embrace the day.
The voice that helps me grieve for my loved and lost.
The voice that is oh so loved and will never be lost.
The voice of an angel and aura of a healer.
The voice of a star, our star and our healer.
Marie, may you rest in peace and shine bright in the night sky.
Why you were taken from us, could actually, never sadly be clearer.
God bless you and all your loved ones. All my love, Gary xXx....xXx....xXx

Obrigado, Marie Fredriksso, obrigado por todas as emoções!
Aos familiares, nosso forte abraço!

Thankyou for the awesome music and memories! May you now rest peacefully ❤️
Firstly my feelings to all family, and friends. Marie was part of my adolescence and continues to this day in my adult life, I am Brazilian and I love the band Roxette, the voice to Marie will continue with us, eternal. Rest in peace.
To Marie and family, I send my deepest condolences. She was an amazing person and a fighter, her music with Roxette was insperational and heart felt. I will forever be greatfull for the music that you made. Go and enjoy Milk and Toast and Honey in heaven. Love the van Wyk family
Roxette was an incredible soul and shall live on forever in the fabulous music she graced us with. RIP @)--)--
Rest with the angels Marie.. I remember vividly going to the video shows as a young boy in the late 90s and mostly they would play songs to entertain viewers and one song that was very common was It must be love.. What a hit it was.. You're a legend
Roxette was always a favorite when I was growing up. Marie had an amazing talent and she will be missed. RIP.
It feels so strange considering we never met, we never saw one another and yet I feel a piece of me is missing. You were one of the few people who inspired me perhaps that is why I feel so empty. Thank you for the music, your wonderful voice that you shared with so many people and for generations to enjoy in the years ahead. I loved your single, Tro it was one of my favourites. So many of us no more so than your two children and your husband will miss you, but as the single goes 'I'll Remember You' and 'Things Will Never Be The Same.' R.I.P. Eddie
Thanks for the music. Remember the first time i heard from you a friend show me the look sharp casette. And i fall in love when i saw your foto. Then i hear the music. And i love all. Listen to your heart still in my mp4 and remember to that moment. With my brother buy several cds and saw you in Concert in the ferro stadium in the crash boom bang tour. Later with One of my beta friends saw you in the luna park of argentina. 2 times. Always in my playlist still listen. Must have. Stars etc. I love you and miss you. Gracias x todo!!!! Te amo y siempre te amare. You music lives forever. Hugs and kisses for the family and friends Juansa
From a 23 years old fan who mostly loves trance music
I grow up listening to Tourism in a time where internet was not a thing to me and tv was too boring for me ..... I grow up listening to this tap ase, observing outside of my window and dreaming.... Although I'm too young for listening to 80s pop I would like to say a public thank you to Roxette Marie and Per for the dreams that made me achieve .......
Your music is still so emotional to me and it drives me crazy ....
I would never forget you .......
Roxette it's not just another music band I love so much, Roxette is part of my childhood and for me this news makes me feel very sad.
I listened Marie's voice at first time when I was 5, and in that moment I turned a big fan of her and Roxette music.
But I feel very thankful to had the chance to see her singing when the band came to Brazil in 2011 and I always will keep this moment saved in my mind.
Thank you Marie for your wonderful voice, your strength and your colours to my days with so many beautiful songs.
I love all of your music. You are an Inspiration. Thank you for the Music. You will be always in my heart. Thank you and Rest In Peace.
Apresensse santos anjos do senhor, pois uma das maiores estrelas da terra está subindo!
Marie ! A inesquecível Rainha.
Roxette has been part of my life since I was a kid, Marie will always be missed and loved. RIP
Desde niña siempre escuche sus canciones, son parte importante de mi vida, haciendo cualquier actividad, simpre se volvia mejor con su musica de fondo y mi familia se acostumbro a escucharlos siempre y los disfrutaba tanto como yo , mi hermano el mas chico que sabe de musica nos decia que le encantaban sus composiciones. Hace unos años mi mamá enfermo de cancer y tambien Marie y como Marie logro vencerlo por un tiempo y despues regreso la enfermedad , ella murio hace unos años a la edad de 61 años y a las dos semanas de su muerte Uds. Se presentaron en la ciudad de México y gracias a mi hermano el menor consiguio unos boletos de ultimo minuto y asistimos a disfrutar de su concierto , que tambien a mi mamá le habría encantado disfrutar y aun recuerdo ver a Marie sentada en un banco ya que para ella tambien ya era dificil mantenerse en un show por tanto tiempo , asi que gracias a su entrega a sus fans, tuvimos la oportunidad de verlos juntos por ultima vez en México. Lamento profundamente su perdida y espero encuentren pronto consuelo . Muchas gracias por permitirnos expresar lo que significo para tantos de nosotros.
