Marie Fredriksson, voce dei Roxette è morta all’età di 61 anni. Da oltre 17 anni la cantante combatteva contro un tumore al cervello: l’aveva annunciato nel 2002 sconvolgendo i suoi fan. La cantante aveva continuato ad esibirsi comunque fino all’anno scorso.
Era sposata con Mikael Bolyos e ha avuto due figli.
Messaggi dai fan:
Time goes by so quickly. It’s not that long ago we spent days and nights in my tiny apartment in Halmstad, listening to music we loved, sharing impossible dreams. And what a dream we eventually got to share!
Thank you Marie, thanks for everything. You were an outstanding musician, a master of the voice, an amazing performer. Thanks for painting my black and white songs with the most beautiful colours. You were the most wonderful friend for over forty years. I’m proud, honoured and happy to have been able to share so much of your time, talent, warmth, generosity and your sense of humour. All my love goes out to you and your family. Things will never be the same.
