The world lost a beautiful person and Heaven gained an angel with a voice to match. My thoughts and prayers are with Marie's family and friends.
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 thank you so much for accompanying me at all times of my life with your beautiful voice. I have no words to thank. I will keep loving you always. Thanks for everything!
Hoje o dia amanheceu mais triste com essa notícia.
Queria ter palavras para espressar toda a alegria que senti quando realizei meu sonho de ir no show que vcs fizeram aqui em Basília foi surreal pra mim.
Suas músicas serao eternas e sua voz inesquecivel.
Me sinto orgulhosa de ser fã de vcs e de ter feito tantos amigos se tornarem também.
Thank you beautiful, talented & corageous Marie! I loved Roxette all my life but saw you for the first and last time at the" Lunatic Park" in Buenos Aires 2012....I will never forget you ! Rest in peace brave Viking girl ! We will always love you!
Dear Marie, Your and Per music was the soundtrack of my life. Thank you for the music and your beautiful voice. Rest in peace.
Rest in peace, Great Marie! Losing you, things will never be the same. We love and miss you forever! Thanks for your amazing vocal and emotions that you had been sharing with us for years!

I grew up with your songs and your music was one of my main motivators when I was low on energy or sad. I was lucky enough to see you in concert in 2011 and it's a memory I will always carry with me. <3 Artists like you never die, they live in our memories and emotions!
Obrigado Maria, por tudo o que fizeste na música. Fui muito feliz ao som das tuas músicas, durante muitos anos. Ouvi te vezes sem fim durante anos a fio, e foste a minha companhia de viagem inúmeras vezes. O mundo ficou mais pobre sem ti. Mas continuarei a ouvir te... Forever!!!!
Obrigado por teres deixado a tua magnifica obra musical.
La mejor voz y letra qué escuche en mi adolescencia. Muchas gracias por todo, que descanses en paz.
Marie reached into the hearts of so many. Many of the songs take me back to when I was a kid and I will never forget the first time I heard that beautiful voice. Making you dance, making you sing out loud, making you cry, making you smile, everything in the most beautiful way. Music helps us through life and she's a part of millions of hearts that needed that around the world.
Thank you both for giving the world so many wonderful songs and thank you Marie for sharing your gift and making us feel the power of music.
I remember when Roxette came for the second time to Uruguay in 2011. They came the first time in 1992, but i was just kid. I grew up loving their music. By 2011 Marie had been battling with cancer and she was winning. She sang beautifully and blessed us with her magic along with Per.
"Wish I could fly" will always be my favorite Roxette song and I think it's the right song for her goodbye. Thanks for the memories, thanks for the music, thanks for the magic... And thanks for your strength.
I discovered Roxette when I was 10 or 11 old, at the school. I since that moment, Roxette music has been part of my life' s band sonore. The first person who was in love with, was fan of this duo too. Today, i read the sad new of Marie's death... and sudently all of those memories have returned at my mind. We'll remember her always in Roxette's song. Always in our memories, Marie.
Crecí con sus canciones, sus casettes y cd’s y con mi primer poster en la
pared de mi habitación. Horas y horas escuchando la música de Marie y Per, directa al corazón.
Siento mucho este final y Marie ha sido una mujer fuerte, valiente y luchadora y siempre será una persona que vivirá en mis recuerdos. Mucho ánimo a la familia en estos momentos tan difíciles.
One of the best voices that I have ever heard, you were such an inspiration to me! You will be missed dear Marie, I'll never stop listening to your sweet and amazing voice.
