Marie, you’ll always be in my heart!
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.

Marie são boas as recordações ao som da sua voz acompanhada por a sua banda. Obrigada por todos eles. <3 . Depois destes 17 anos de luta, chega o merecido descanso da guerreira. E ira viver para sempre nos nossos corações, nas recordações e nas músicas que nos deixa. Um abraço forte a todos os familiares, colegas e aos amigos desta excelente cantora. Paz. 🙁 . Família Correia.
Marie is very important to me. Every day I hear her voice, the most beautiful voice in this world, the voice that calms me, cheers me up ... Marie for me is courage, fun, humility ... Knowing Marie I could also know the fan love, today I feel the pain of a fan for losing it. Marie always goes is in my heart and in my life. I love you Marie.

Marie, your voice was simply the best live voice I ever heard. Your strength and resilience in life was reflected in the lyrics of your songs and have been a source of inspiration for so many. I was lucky to see your last concert in Sydney and made a very special memory with my niece. It was my favourite concert ever - and I've been to lots! Your voice lives on and I'm sure you are already singing in the choir of angels. Rest in peace.
Somente agradecer!!!
Pelas boas lembranças na minha vida, embaladas na sua música e voz.
Que a partir desse momento, os anjos apreciem e admirarem sua linda voz e canções, como nós fizemos e faremos eternamente aqui na terra.
Descanse em o paz, querida!!!
You will never die. Thank you for so much wunderfull songs. RIP Marie.
Este es uno de los días más difíciles que ha tenido que superar, me ha dejado la voz más hermosa del mundo, todavía recuerdo como si fuera ayer la primera vez que escuché Roxette, solo tenía 9 años y gracias a mi padre y hermano tuve el disco Joyride, fue amor a primer disco. Desde ese día y estoy seguro de que será hasta el día en que yo muera, será mi banda favorita, tengo una canción para cada etapa de mi vida. Siempre me han acompañado en altos y bajos. Gracias Marie por regalarme tantos momentos y se que estas lágrimas que hoy caen de mi cara por tu partida son inevitables y seguro tus canciones me ayudarán a superar este terrible sentimiento de vacío. El mundo te extrañará, yo te voy a extrañar. Te amo.
Thank you Marie and Roxette for the amazing talent and music that you brought us through the years. I have been listening and enjoying your songs for nearly half my life. The songs such as "stars " "things will never be the same" , "fading like a flower" and "silver moon" mark the exquisite and unique voice of Marie. They are made to be sang by her and they bring shivers down my spine each time I hear them . RIP Marie and enjoy the joy ride. We will never forget you! Thank you for these unforgettable masterpieces.
The music world has lost an amazing singer...RIP Marie?❤
My earliest memory of Roxette was the music video for Joyride. The song itself is the joyfullness I've come to associate with Roxette over the years. It was free. It was vibrant and full of life. And Marie stood out to me in a way I couldn't really appreciate until many many years later. She was different; her look, her presence, her confidence. She was a woman, not unlike Annie Lennox, who didn't fit herself into the mold of what a woman was suppose to look and act like. She was a trailblazer, a true talent in effortless acceptance of self, and a voice so familiar in warmth. My biggest regret is that I never got to see Roxette in person but I do very much appreciate the decades of songs that is her legacy. Dearest Marie, thank you and rest well. To her family, thank you for allowing the world to have just a piece of her. God bless.
Marie, thank you for the music. Thank you for sharing your wonderful talent with the world and letting your voice and Roxette's music be a soundtrack to my early teenage years. I fell in love with 'The Look' from the moment I heard the opening guitar riff. From there, Look Sharp became my favourite album. I listened to the cassette until I wore it out. Then I went out and bought the CD along with the Joyride CD when it was released. I listened to these songs on repeat endlessly in my bedroom. Singing and dancing along behind my closed door where your music made me feel like I could be myself. Where nothing else mattered but the joyful innocence of youth. I remember those days fondly and today, hearing of your passing, it is like that little piece of my life has passed away too. Those moments that I will never be able to relive again, but are so important to me. I will hold your voice and Roxette's music close to my heart, as they both will live on forever. And although today is a terribly sad day for your family, friends and fans, I am also glad that you will no longer suffer and hope that you take your soul peacefully into the next realm knowing you left the world a better place by doing what you love and sharing it with the world.
Things will never be the same. x
Gracias Marie por ser la melodia de mi adolescencia, tus canciones me recuerdan esa epoca y mi primer amor. Te seguire escuchando con cariño
Adiós a una gran estrella⭐
Goodbye to a great star.⭐
O dia que eu descobri que sonhos se realizam foi quando pude ver meus ídolos de perto! Parecia ser algo tão distante de acontecer, artistas lá da Suécia, mas na minha imaginação esse dia chegaria, e chegou em abril de 2011, nunca vou esquecer! Ouvir bem alto e ver, Marie e Per ali na minha frente, tão de pertinho foi mágico, mesmo com suas limitações a voz continuava impecável! Hoje ela se foi...e dói! Dói porque ela fez parte de tudo, é como se a vida tivesse trilha sonora sabe e a voz dela embalava meu sono, meus amores, minhas alegrias, meu descanso, meus exercícios...minha vida! Descanse em paz #Marie Fredriksson! #Roxette pra sempre! ❤️
Descansa en paz querida Marie. Por siempre en nuestros corazones.
Hvala Mari za predivnu muziku. Pocivaj medu zvezdama negde gore a mi te nikada necemo zaboraviti.
Una mujer que ha calado muy fuertemente en el alma desde mi niñez... Una voz cálida, amorosa, llena de fuerza y vitalidad que me acompaño y acompaña aún hoy en día... Buen viaje Marie!!!
