Descanse em paz. Obrigada pela sua música. Obrigada por tocar minha alma
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.

I can remember while in high school Roxette was a hit and so all of their songs. And even today it still is. I never had the opportunity to see Roxette in concert but I remember every song I played very loudly in my car!
I know that Marie will always be remember when you hear a Roxette song and it will take you back into the past when it was linked to a moment that you carry with you!
Thank you to her family for allowing her to be part of our (fans) family!
R.I.P. Marie. Strength and love for the family and Per

Sweet, beautiful Majsan,
Since the first moment I heard your voice back in 1989 you captured my heart. You've made my life so much more beautiful. Colored my emotions with your singing. Thank you for being such an inspiration. Strong, wonderful and kind to everyone. My heart is a little bit broken now. Things will never be the same. You're not gone though, you're still in there. My love for you is eternal. That will never change...
Dear Mikael, Josefin and Oscar, I wish you all the strength in the world to cope with this intens pain.
RIP majsan ?

Roxette was my inspiration for many many years. Marie was somehow a sort of a teenage crush. I Will miss her.

La dueña de tantas grandes canciones que marcaron nuestra juventud... Vivirás eternamente en nuestros corazones.
Mi más sentido pésame para la familia de Marie. Me ha entristecido muchísimo la noticia de su fallecimiento, he aguantado las lágrimas. Marie, Roxette ha sido un referente en mi vida, vuestras canciones me han hecho reír, llorar, cantar y bailar casi todos los días de mi vida, te vas dejando el gran legado de tu voz y de tu talento y sobre todo de esa gran educación de la que hacías galardonado. Descansa en paz, en el cielo junto a los Ángeles entonareis las mejores melodias, un fuerte abrazo a toda la familia, vivirás siempre en nuestros corazones.
Te conocí hace 31 años. Tarareabas Nanananana Nananananana y luego decías: She's got the look. Y me llegó al alma esa voz y su magia, TU MAGIA, a partir de ese día tuve un grupo favorito, ya no sólo era mecano, ahora tenía el binomio perfecto que me ha acompañado toda mi vida desde entonces: Mecano y Roxette. Fue un amor a primera vista que fue creciendo más y más con los años. Has estaso en todos mis momentos bienos y malos, felices y tristes. Siempre cantándome, susurrándome, tarareándome y después de todo, tu sonrisa y esa mirada profunda que decía: todo va a ir bien. Y fue bien hasta que tu voz se ha apagado para siempre y me has dejado sola. No sólo he admirado tu voz, tu energía o tu magia, sino tu persona y la fuerza y el coraje con el que has vivido. Has sido un ejemplo para todos y no voy a olvidarte nunca. Siempre serás mi voz favorita esa que no sólo canta sus canciones sino que te hace vivirlas junto a ti y sentirlas. Le has dado vida y color a todas ellas y a todos tus fans. Siempre te estaré agradecida y siempre recordaré los dos conciertos a los que acudí y pude mirarte a los ojos y ver un alma buena. Te quiero Marie, y eso no lo cambia nada. Vuela alto y no dejes de cantar allá dnd estés y no dejes de cantarles a los q ya te estaban esperandos. Qué solos nos dejas. Vivirás para siempre en mí. Hasta siempre. Te dedico mis 3 canciones favoritas tuyas: Spending my time, crash boom bang y The look pues gracias a ella, nos conocimos. Me ha dolido mucho tu pérdida tan inesperada. Nunca te olvidaré. Un beso grande y cántanos desde el cielo. Seguro que te oiremos. Hasta siempre. Un placer haber coincidido en esta voda. Isa.
