I love Marie’s voice and I think she’s one of the best female performer of the world. Her voice is sweet and strong as the same time, and when it’s nedeed, she can sing very loud too, such as in Perfect day, one of my favourite Marie’vocal performance.
Other ones like Dressed for success, Listen to your heart and It must have been love are also great.
What do you think about it?

Don’t like the song, but without a shadow of a doubt I think she sang Anyone brilliantly.

Så skimrande.... is the best performance of Marie

Sparvöga, it has so much power & class. For me the BEST MF-Song ever!

Hey, we can’t forget Watercolours in the rain, it seems that she sings it with her soul. Have you seen the live version?

So far away (from tourism)
U don’t understand me (abbey road version)
Tid för tystand (live)

@ Peppermint
In PD she sounds a bit rusty, don’t you think? It may sound good but still...Did you see “The Making of Joyride”?
japeke said on February 21, 2002 01:14:
Maybe they made a few mistakes in the performance, but Marie sangb Real sugar great in their showcases in Koln and Barcelona!!!
Hotblooded is also great!
JAAP

@ animalkingdom
I think that just this rusty voice is kind of cool in the song and that she does it with intention...
RoXoR said on February 21, 2002 11:31:
I think the best performances are Whats she like, things will never be the the same, Sparvöga, Het hus ett havet, For free and Ann Katrin farväl also if i dont like this song so much!

oh, I LOVE Perfect Day as well! Actually, everything started for me with this song performed live! Pure magic, thanx Marie!

.... “För dom som älskar” (live at Artister mot Nazi), “Genom ett krossat fönster”, to add a couple more.

The best vocal performance I’ve seen Marie give......
When she sang “Så Skimrande Aldrig Havet” on her solo tour in 2000 (pick any concert, they were all spine tingling).
And...
When Roxette played at Sheppards Bush Empire in London ’95, it is the best I’ve ever heard her voice sound, DFS and YDUM were just ......amazing.
Small-talker said on February 22, 2002 02:21:
I have the songs that I think Marie sang the best from each album below...
Pearls of passion = don’t know (probably Voices)
Looksharp! = Cry (yes, Cry)
Joyride = Hotblooded
Tourism = Never Is A Long Time (beautiful song)
Crash!Boom!Bang! = I’m Sorry
Don’t bore us - get to the chorus = It Must Have Been Love
Have A Nice Day = Anyone
Room Service = Bringing Me Down To My Knees (listen to the ending)

has to be YDUM or Beautiful Things for me......but some cracker power-toons too, specially COY.....spine-tinglin stuff!
Jud (moderator) said on August 9, 2005 17:54:
puh.. she has many :)
But I love “I never loved a man...” and “Så skimrande ..” live 2000 :O
AddeColciago said on August 9, 2005 18:09:
Things Will Never Be THe Same Tourism version! and Listen To YOur Heart.. She just screams in Spending My Time ( My opinion). Almost Unreal is kind of good to.
Rox1_4ever said on August 9, 2005 21:17:
**TRO** Maries voice are always so beutiful but especially in this song. Ännu Doftar Kärlek is wonderful to!
alexandre100 said on August 9, 2005 22:25:
All About You, The First Girl On The Moon, Listen To Your Heart and Watercocours InThe Rain (specially the live version) are my faves...
roxtexanet said on August 10, 2005 01:07:
I think “The Good Life” is Marie’s best vocal performance because of what it does for a rather bland song. “I Never Loved a Man” and “Crash! Boom! Bang!” and “My World, My Love, My Life” and “Half a Woman, Half a Shadow” are closely-tied runners-up. So many fantastic performances to choose from!
ncurran said on August 10, 2005 09:08:
I couldnt pick just one or two songs, but some examples of her very strong voice would be on Hotblooded, Sa Skimrande..., a Table in the sun, Tro and perhaps also Dressed for Success
AURYTE said on August 10, 2005 11:10:
It’s very hard to choose, but these are my favourites:
Den Bästa Dagen
Sparvöga
Soul Deep (live)
Spending My Time
Crush On You (live)

Hawk said on August 15, 2005 23:17:
Is there a performance by Marie that is better than the next?......Milk and Toast and Honey
Cinnamon said on February 2, 2002 09:18:
No Rox - song, but no doubt for me about that: “I never loved a man...” at MTV´s Unplugged!!! Great!!!
