Far too young! :(

Roxette singer Marie Fredriksson has died aged 61, her manager has confirmed.

The Swedish star achieved global success in the 1990s with hits like Joyride, The Look and It Must Have Been Love, from the film Pretty Woman.

A statement said the singer had died on Monday, 9 December "following a 17-year long battle with cancer".

"You were the most wonderful friend for over 40 years," her bandmate Per Gessle said. "Things will never be the same."

The Look is still one of my favourite songs.

Bummer RIP.

In the late 80's early 90's I went into John Menzies and bought their CD and went to a electrical retailer and bought a £1k+ Kenwood HiFi after testing it with the CD, I think it was the track "Spending My Time" that did it for me.
