I saw them live three times '86, '95 and the last time in 2015. Marie was singing sitting on a chair. They had to help her to walk on and off the stage. The voice was not as strong as it used to be but what can you expect. But the glow was there. Her last tour.. Per Gessle said this to a newspaper here: (Translated the best I could): "Time goes by so fast. It feels like just recently when Marie and I sat in my little apartment in Halmstad and shared dreams. And what a fantastic dream we got to share! Thank you Marie, thank you for EVERYTHING. You were a truly unique musician, a singer on a level we will hardly ever experience again. You painted my black and white songs with the most beautiful colors. You were a wonderful friend for over forty years. I am proud, honored and happy to have shared so much of your time, your talent, your warmth, generosity and humor. All my love for you and your family. Things will never be the same.” Edited December 10, 2019 by Chris1970 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mostly ballads. I found one of her later songs with english subtitles. Hope you like it. https://youtu.be/TxHCSHSRl84 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Broo Posted December 11, 2019 Share Posted December 11, 2019 Was so sad to hear about this, roxette's music featured heavily in my childhood, lots of fond memories attached to it. RIP to an incredible woman. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

RIP to an incredible woman. In my opinion, and many others, more important to the music industry here than ABBA. Plus both had, Per still do, a strong solo career. Per just finished off a 40th anniversary final tour with his band he started before Roxette. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Good job you’ve preordered it when you have, I’ve seen loads of people doing the same today, I’m sure it will sell out on the pre order soon! 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Is the money taken once the item is dispatched or once the order is placed? If it's taken immediately I'll have to wait until I get paid before I order one. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Don't know if they will add more but decided to go for it. The Master/Missy is my favourite! 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If it says 3000 I wouldn’t think they would add more if it’s limited edition, the cast list looks great, shamefully I don’t listen to or buy the big finish audios, I’m not really an audiobook person! 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm not big on audiobooks either, but I do love Big Finish, so I'd definitely recommend trying one or two stories. You can download some of them for really cheap prices on their website. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
