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.

My sincerest condolences. I hope your family will take comfort in each other, and in knowing the impact Marie Fredriksson had as an artist. Her passing is one that has hit me hard, as Roxette's music has been an important part of my life for over 30 years. "Look Sharp!" was my very first cassette that I still have to this day. I never thought I would see Roxette live, but in 2011 my best friend and I traveled from Boston, Massachusetts to England to witness a phenomenal concert at Wembley Arena. Marie's beautiful voice, talent, and legacy will be remembered.

I have been a fan of Roxette from day 1. The music and songs of Per combined with the music and voice of Marie was a one off, never will we experience that magical combination again. I have seen them live many times all over the world and was lucky enough to take one of my daughters to Auckland in 2015. Their songs, her incredible voice, have travelled with me through my journey of life and will continue to do so for ever more. Marie's voice, the emotion she was able to express was just magic, how did she manage to make it feel like she was sining to just you with the messages she was saying . You will be missed Marie and we thank you for the beautiful gifts you have left for us all to enjoy. you will live on on this planet without a doubt and i wish you to travel well where ever you are flying too next

Tenía 13 años cuando escuché a Roxette por primera vez, y a partir de entinces seguí su música. Son muchas mis canciones favoritas, ya desde entonces amaba la viz de Marie y su aspecto. Tuve la oportunidad de ir al último concierto que dieron en México y fue increíble, recuerdo todo el Auditorio Nacional cantando sus canciones; fue una noche memorable. Gracias por tu voz y tu pasión!!

Marie ať Ti to dobře zpívá i nahoře. Ty jsi neodešla, budeš s námi i dál a to v písních skupiny Roxette a dalších, které jsi nazpivala. Jako kapelu Roxette jsem poslouchala téměř od vzniku. Jsem ráda, že jsem celou kapelu Roxette viděla a slyšela naživo. Je to pro mě nezapomenutelný zážitek! Upřímnou soustrast rodině Marie.

Dear Family of Marie, I was in high school back in 1990 when I discovered Roxette and Marie's incredible voice. The power and emotion in each song was able to help me get through those challenging high school years. I cried a lot when I heard of beautiful Marie's passing. Even though I never met her, I felt I lost a member of my family. I was blessed to see Roxette in concert when I was 17 and 37. I want you to know Marie was loved by this woman in South Gate, California. Thank you for sharing your beautiful Marie with me and the world. Much love.

Soy médico mexicana, durante mi adolescencia baile y canté con la música de Roxette, pero dentro de mis capitulos más difíciles se pueden escribir fines de semana completos en los que durante los años de residencia de especialidad había que escribir todas las indicaciones médicas de 40 a 60 pacientes pediátricos hospitalizados, al salir de la jornada nuestra contribución a la guardia que entraba era esa, mientras el resto de los residentes analizaban caso por caso y cama por cama, mi equipo de 3 y yo nos poníamos a transcribir. Durante esas jornadas nos metíamos a la biblioteca del hospital (que curiosamente tenía un equipo de audio) y poníamos nuestros cd de Roxette, nota a nota musical escribíamos los expedientes, cantabamos nos poníamos intensas nostalgicas, hoy en día l música de Roxette me transporta a mis años más nobles y también más difíciles mismos que abrazo con ternura. Roxette me llena de sensaciones amables y cálidas. Siento una pena muy grande por lo ocurrido, pero sé que el dolor pasó y la trancision curó. Bendiciones

I was 11 when i had my first crush with Roxette's "Listen To Your Heart". I really became a huge fan with Crash Boom Bang. it took me a few more years to discover Marie's solo album "I en tid som vår". i was overwhelmed even if i did not understand swedish. All those years, Roxette and Marie accompanied me through my life. I never stopped listening to them. I feel like something was taken away from me. Thank you Marie for everything you brought us, your talent, your incredible voice, your beautiful songs (aswell with Roxette, as your solo albums), the joy you gave us and you still give right now while listening to your latest songs. I know my life would not have been the same without Marie. Even if it happened with her music, it had a big impact on my life, a big influence. Thank you Marie, you are in my heart for ever. all my thoughts go to Marie's friends and family.

Gracias Marie. Cumplí mi sueño de verte cantar en vivo a unos poquitos metros de distancia. Tu voz mágica me acompañará por siempre. Gracias por haber sido parte de mi vida. Hasta siempre.
