[Dustarr73]

She was only 61 and had a 17 year battle with cancer.Ah i loved her voice.

Me too Dustarr73!

Really shocked and saddened by the news. 😥

That's so sad, I had no idea she was ill. So young.

Loved Roxette as a teen. RIP.

Oh that's so sad, l love her voice.

This is so sad. A technically outstanding singer, and a true talent.

That’s so sad. Incredible voice.
A battle of 17 years against cancer...poor woman.
That must have been very very hard.

Oh no :( loved Roxette as a child!

Saw this on Facebook. So sad and a shock, loved her voice and roxettes music.

Incredibly sad for her poor family who must be heartbroken.

It must have been love, but it's over now.
RIP.

It's very sad, I'd no idea she was ill, and was listening to roxette, weirdly as I don't usually, in the gym this morning.

How sad. Loved their music.

So sad to hear this. Have loved Roxette for years Have quite a lot of their songs on my mp3 RIP Marie.

Brave woman hanging on for 17 years.

She had the most beautiful, emotional, powerful voice. They were amazing together.
I knew she had been ill for some time. So sad to her this, RIP Marie x

RIP. Roxette was my first ever music concert. Was listening to their songs yesterday.

That is so sad. I remember seeing Roxette at their first tour at a concert in Sweden with my mum and aunt. Her solo music in Swedish is also beautiful and my go to music when I'm a bit homesick.

So very sad, she had the most beautiful voice.

Her bandmate’s tribute to her choked me up- he wrote something along the lines of “ you took my black and white lyrics and gave them colour”

I saw them in concert about 4 years ago, she was very frail and used a walking stick to get on stage and then had to sit for the performance but her voice was as beautiful as ever

I too am really saddened by this, loved Roxette as a child and still do now, there is nearly always one of the albums on my car play list.
