The Heaven must sound incredible with you there. Your voice is printed in my thoughts forever. Thank you for the most enlightened music that my souls could hear. You are part of my being, part of my true self. I am who I am today because you played a language that my heart could decipher. Rest In Peace!
Thank you Marie!
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.

Mi adolescencia tiene un sountrack y su voz es parte importante.
Escucharla sólo me trae recuerdos hermosos. Como el último concierto en Lima, con Guillermo♥️ cantamos todas las canciones. Descansa bella Marie, tu vida iluminó a muchos, no te vas, te quedas en nuestro corazón.
Last seen Roxette live in Melbourne 2012. It was amazing that Marie had to learn her music again with P’s help as well as find her voice. She sung just as beautifully & when she did struggle you didn’t mind as you were just in awe of what she’d been through & was going through. Marie was so honest & transparent about her journey and we loved her for it. I clearly remember the tickets being too cheap & was disappointed in the promoter for not showing enough belief in that ‘Roxette’ would get the numbers because that’s just what she did. I would have paid three times more than what I did because the music was beautiful. Nothing but rest now after that long fight Marie. Much love to your three boys as they learn to live a new normal without their loving wife & mother.
1991 I was a pre teen, my first love, introduced me to your album joyride....... well what can I say amazing. I absolutely idolised you and Per and unfortunately I wasn’t lucky enough to ever experience you in concert. You’ll forever be in my heart xxx
Marie fez parte da minha vida e continuará em meu coração eternamente. Posso dizer que nasci e cresci ao som de Roxette. Me apaixonei pelo som, melodia e principalmente pela voz linda e poderosa da Marie. Meus sentimentos aos familiares. Sinto uma tristeza muito grande, mas sua voz tocará pra sempre em meu coração e irei lembrar dela com muito amor e carinho. Marie nunca será esquecida! Love you forever, Marie.
Rest in peace.
I feel sad today because the world lost a beautiful person in you. But at the same time I am so thankful for your legacy, which is your voice in so many beautiful songs you have sung and to which I will be able to listen to forever. Your songs gave me strength in many hard times. They pulled me through. But your songs also made me smile and feel happy. You were such a strong and inspirational person. The world will never forget you and loves you forever ?
So sad to hear of Marie’s passing, may she rest in peace. I saw Roxette live here in London with my mother a few years ago. It was clear that her health problems had taken a huge toll on her yet even sitting down there was no diminishing her powerful, beautiful voice. I was left with a lasting impression of the bravery of her spirit after all she’d clearly gone through, and it moved me to tears. I had such admiration for her. It’s so sad that her voice has now been silenced but she will not be forgotten.
I love your music! Marie 4 ever! Love, love, love from Brazil. R. I.P Great Diva!❤❤❤❤
Marie, my dreams came true with your voice, your joy, energy and love. Siempre estarás en ml corazón..

I've been a fan since 1998, when I was 7 years old. Roxette is a huge part of my life and I'm very thankful for the music and all the emotions and memories that I've got from it. On my second Roxette concert, on May 12th, 2012 in Rio de Janeiro, I was jumping with a leaf of paper written "DO" during "How Do You Do!" and Marie pointed at me for a few seconds. It might be silly for some, but it's a lovely memory I'll carry on forever. Rest in Peace, Dear Marie. Your legacy lives on. Thank you!
Infelizmente não cresci a tempo de ter o privilégio de prestigiar um show da dupla Roxette, mas mesmo assim nunca deixei de ser fã.
Conheci a banda porque o primeiro presente que minha mãe deu ao meu pai foi um CD da Roxette e desde então se tornou a trilha sonora da nossa família. Não passamos uma só férias sem escutar as músicas que fazem parte da tradição das nossas férias.
Obrigada por ter deixado o melhor legado de músicas para todo o mundo.
Descanse em paz, Marie! Eu e minha família amamos você!
First of all my heartfelt condolences to friends and family of Marie.
Growing up in the 90s Marie and Roxette was th epidimy of my childhood. I always listened to rosette and what they published new albums I begged and begged and begged my parents to buy the CD and roxette could always cheer me up when I was sad. never got to meet Marie but she seemed like a down to earth person. Your voice and your music will never be forgotten. Rest in peace Marie you wonderful soul. ❤? much love to the entire family from Denmark
First of all I want to tank God for letting me know this amazing woman who taught me the meaning of perseverance and willing of keep going.
Dear friends, when I was 9 or 10 years old I knew Roxette and I followed the band since there and now. I'm from Mexico and I always listened "Spending My time" ,in spanish "Un día sin tí" when I broke up with my fiancee and that song somehow gave me strenght for keep going. I thank a Lot to Roxette and specially to Marie for their love and for let us be part of they big cummunity.
I love You Marie, thanks for all...
I met Roxette in 2001, was a teenager. Marie's voice captivated me from the first song. I bought all the band's discography and grew up listening to Roxette. Marie's voice has made and makes my life, listening to her is good for her soul. May God receive you into your arms and comfort your family and friends.
Such a talent with the voice of an angel. Your songs brings me so many happy memories of growing up in the 80's and 90's You will never be forgotten . Thank you for your music ? RIP Beautiful Marie ?
Dear Marie,
I was 7-8 years old when I received for the very first time an audio cassette. It was with Roxette - Carsh! Boom! Bang!. From the first sound played I enjoyed listen to your music, to your voice. I will always like your music and will forever still listen to it but from now on with a touch of sadness because as your friend Per said: Things will never be the same again.
Thank you for sharing your passion for music with the entire world, for making millions of people just for once to listen to their harts.
Rest in peace,
Alex

I fell in love with some girl in high school. She was a big fan of Roxette and she naturally spread her love to this music on me. And literally I am grateful to her, bacause somehow it changed my life - Marie's music became part of my life. This girl's and my way went separate ways, but what is important to me - it's one of my sweetest memories from past. Thank you Aneta for everything what was between us and for Roxette!
Marie... You were fighting for many years, but your fight is over. I really hope that somewhere in heaven there is a beautiful place, where you will sing your songs and make souls there happier!
Thank you Marie, you'll always be deep in my heart!
