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.

Hola, The Daily Roxette fue para mi un dueto maravilloso e increíble de ensueño que siempre seguí gran parte de mi vida y que creci al pendiente de escuchar y cantar todas las hermosas canciones cantadas y tocadas por Marie & Per (Roxxete) muchos alos admirandlos como artistas y cantantes extraordinarios y geniales con la música y la voz al mismo tiempo disfrutando todas las canciones desde que Roxette se dio a conocer y Hasta la fecha añorando y amando todas sus canciones y su carrera artística, Marie te guardo en mi corazón porque siempre fuiste mi musa y gran ejemplo de voz tan hermosa como tu y como el ángel que ahora te convertiste en tu partida al cielo, y fuiste la mejor de las mejores, no mueres del todo porque vivirás en cada uno de los corazones que te conocimos, hasta siempre hermosa donde quiera que te encuentres ?????????????????????????????????????????

My first year at military school I heard the song "Dangerous" by #Roxette. It was part of a mix tape i borrowed on an ed trip to DC, and it was the first time i heard music. That tape, those songs, and Roxette, changed my life and had everything to do with who i would become. I have owned every Roxette record since the beginning and am constantly blown away by the amazing music they have continued to make including the most recent record, "Good Karma". Today 1/2 of Roxette has lost her long and hard fight to live. And a part of me has died with her. I'm sure most people reading this have no idea who Roxette is or how wicked good their music is. I am grateful that her death will most likely reintroduce Roxette to the masses and i hope the masses cherish what they have given. My heart breaks for her loved ones, and for the rest of the band. Big big love and enormous gratitude to Per and Marie for 30+ years of Roxette. Thank you for the Joyride!

I was about 8 when I first heard Roxette's iconic music . Marie was dressed for success and sung her way into my memory bank. I was hooked , I remember thinking Marie was the most beautiful woman . It wasnt until I was 29 I finally was able to see Roxette in concert in Brisbane . Marie was as usual fantastic . There I stood with thousands of others who had ventured the cold and wet muddy conditions to listen to the voices that had moved us through generations . I watched elderly women dance in the stadium as well as teens and everyone in between Roxette spans the ages and defys the consumerism of music . Roxette is just as relevent and loved now as it was 30 years ago. I had surgery the day before , so standing there in pain ,my drain still in I was in awe that listening to those songs which moved me as a child every other worry I had was irrelevent . The music let me escape . I was standing in the crowd with all those people knowing that Marie's vocals had changed each and every persons life in the stadium too . Very rarely can we change someones life but that was Maries gift , she had a power to change and touch so many lives through the art and lyrics of music . I was saddened to read of Maries passing but thankful her suffering is over . The world is a little less interesting and bright with her gone . But she will live forever in her music , in the hearts of her fans and through her family and friends . Oxo

Things will never be the same... For 20 years, Roxete was always in our best moments. Our dating, our marriage have always been rocked by your successes. We have almost all the records and we went to two shows in Rio de Janeiro. Of course, we taught our three children to listen to Roxete!

Being 18 myself, you’d be amazed by how many young people I know who still jam out to the sweet music of Roxette. I didn’t find Roxettes music until last year while waiting in the hospital for my baby sister to be born, however I have had a joyride of a music experience. Marie’s soft words have touched my heart.. When I am feeling down or lonely I will play ‘Listen to you heart’. My job of a fan will be to raise my kids to Roxettes sweet music I am beyond saddened to hear of Marie’s passing and I give my condolences to all of Marie’s family. She will be missed very dearly

Thank you for every song sung. Owner of the most beautiful voice I've ever heard in my life. It is sad to know that I will never hear your voice again. Thank you for every sung letter. Thank you for changing my life. Rest in peace. May it be in God's eternal memory.
