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 was born just some few years before the group was formed in the mid 80s bu by the mid 90s that love ballad with Maries voice booming along the acoustic guiter introduced a young catolic boy then a genre of music that would take me through high schoool and college, i was to later folloe the band on social media and learn more about art from per and Marie. Her battle against cancer was also one i used often in my work of motivating people who fight through tough times, Maries life was a shining beacon of light to many and her voice would always recall one of humanity most tranquil times what some call the golden 80s She will be rightly missed

Today was a sad day as a Roxette fan I can honestly say hearing of Marie’s passing moved me very much and made me reflect on my teenage years,growing up in the 90s listening to their music each song with a memory attached to it from my youth,even now I can listen to any song of theirs and love each one still,each ballad still stirring wonderful emotions long forgotten,I’m just so happy to have been part of that and that voice so mesmerizing to listen to. Marie May you rest easy an carry on singing where ever you are,you will always be remembered and may the music live on forever and Thankyou for helping me though my youth both of you an amazing band sending my biggest warmest condolences to your lovely family and friends and how proud they must be of you too. ??? Live on in the music always ,Katherine x

Words cannot really explain how saddening it was to hear of Marie’s passing. I’ve listened to Roxette my whole life, fading like a flower was the first song that I ever learned entirely and used it push me into choir. I followed Roxette my whole life and even had friends get me the albums released only in Europe. I wept when Marie first fell ill. I was inspired and in awe when she took to the stage again. I introduced all my friends to her showing her beautiful voice and talent to whoever I could. I read the news today and immediately broke down. I cried for hours and off and on all day today at work listening to her one last time. I may have never met you but you and Per and the band has touched my life in ways no one ever has. You will be immortal as your voice will be spread forever.

Very few female singers could hold a stage as their own, Marie was not only striking in looks, she was stunningly beautiful, and had an amazing vocal talent.....a sad sad loss to not only the world of music, and her family and friends..but all the loyal fans....Thankyou for the happy times, Thankyou for the memories you’re music brings back when I play them now and forever...RIP Marie.?

Tus canciones iluminaron mis años de juventud. Cuantas veces intenté vestirme como vos, pero eras hermosa, inimitable. Qué placer fue siempre escuchar tu voz. Te llevo por siempre en mi corazón. Descansa en paz Marie. We always love you.

I became a Roxette fan in 1991. My sister was a big fan too and she got me into them. My dad took us to the concert at the San Carlos de Apoquindo stadium in 1992, where I sang me heart out to every song, especially It Must Have Been Love. In 1995 Roxette went back to Chile and I was able to meet them in person at the hotel. Both so down to earth!!! They knew I was shaking from head to toes because of my excitement. They were both brilliant. Marie had this beautiful gentle voice, you wouldn’t believe she’s the same person who sings Listen to Your Heart. She was happy cause she was gonna see Mikael and Josefin soon in Argentina. The concert was the day after I met them. And during Sleeping in my car, she spotted me in the crowd and waved at me!!! I nearly passed out!!! And I also remember being at the EMI offices in Santiago where me and some friends were invited to listen to the album Baladas en Español. The first song was El Día del Amor. I burst into tears. Her voice was so beautiful and she meant every word she was singing. You were such an important person in my life and I’ll always miss you. Thanks for the songs and the memories. Love you to the moon and back, Marie. RIP.
