Swedish duo Roxette reunited Wednesday night to perform at the Night of the Props in Rotterdam, Holland!

Who could forget such classics as The Look and It Must Have Been Love??

We love cheesy '90s music!

Marie Fredricksson looks amazing! Girlfriend is 51 years old!

Rock on!

      would rather see a video, but thanks for the pics.. I guess.



    2. 2

      The poor man's Eurythmics.

      I remember hating them when they first came out, but now I can hear some of their stuff on the radio and think, "well, they weren't that bad." Marie actually had a brain tumor removed the early part of this decade. I'm glad to see she's doing well!

      hey perez's sister can u comment on the courts decision on your brothers case in the canadian court system please. it would be nice to hear your families side. or will it be another case of you people keeping quiet on things that do not go your way. ie book sales, tour attendance, iva maria walking off your tour. people respect others who discuss the things that did not quite work out. a state of silence and denial is not healthy



    5. 5

      Wasn't it the 80s?



    6. 6

      I fucking LOVE Roxette. The first CD I ever bought was Look Sharp. I was 10 years old. They should play in Toronto. I would go to that for sure.

      I'm pretty sure Roxette was better known in 80s. "Better" being used loosely.

      Sweden rules!!



    15. 15

      "The Look" was 1988. FINALLY - the return of the Rox! An act that writes their own songs, produces their own music, PLAYS AND SINGS LIVE and makes kickass pop music. Nanananana, nanananana, nananananana, nananananananana - SHE'S GOT THE LOOK!!!



    16. 16

      Oh, that's nice to see. I know she had some serious problems due to a brain tumor a few years back. Hopefully all is resolved well.



    17. 17

      ABBA's cousins. Love them !



    18. 18

      What in the world would make a brown-eyed girl turn blue……….

    21. 21

      erm, I believe it is a Night of the Proms!



    22. 22

      Thanks for taking me back! I loved Roxette! …and Terence Trent D'Arby… and Fine Young Cannibals… and Mister Mister…ahhh… the good old days.. when people actually sang… pre lip synch days



    23. 23

      Swedish people never grows old.. I should know! :)



    24. 24

      I LOVE ROXETTE! I LOVE ROXETTE!
      So happy they are out touring! wish I could go see them! They are amazing! Love them!



    26. 26

      Night of the props?

      Night of the proms!



    27. 27

      Yeah, it's Roxette's return to the stage after 8 years! And they're working on a brandnew album too! Who would have thought? Find more here: www.roxette.se and www.roxetteblog.com :)

      Great to see the greatest duo on Perez! Marie is a brain tumour survivor and she should get snaps for pulling though all that shit and still get back onto stage. Its a shame that nothing much was mentioned in the media with regards to it at the time. She's a champ!

      Yes, The Look is 80's and It Must Have Been Love 90's. Not their fault EMI bombed in the USA. The US will forever be poorer without their later music. Such a shame.

      @rebbiej - they are hardly the "Poor man's Eurythmics" after selling more than 65 million albums worldwide from only 7 albums. Not bad I'd say.



    29. 29

      She's Marie Fredriksson and the tour is called "Night of the Proms" :-) And yes, they still rock and even better, they decided to record album together after almost 10 years break!



    30. 30

      would really love to hear them live, all their hits!!!!!!!!



    31. 31

      woooooooooooooooooo hooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo love roxette!



    32. 32

      Right on. I really liked Roxette back in the late 1980's / 1990's. Still do. One day this summer while out in the backyard do some work I put on one of their
      albums I had tapped back in the 1990's. The one with Joyride and Fading Like A Flower. Still sounds good. 6 or 7 years ago I noticed they had a song on
      the European Music Charts. I downloaded it to my computer and loved it.
      When my previous computer died I lost it. Will have to do a search on youtube to find out what it was called.



    33. 33

      They where shit the first time, now they're old and even shitter now. Euro-shite for benders!



    34. 34

      It's Night of the Proms, not of the Props.



    35. 35

      Re: Gambler – Probably Wish I Could Fly



    36. 36

      Yeah! Always go back to them. Whenever I feel cheesy sad I listen to this.



    37. 37

      Yeahhhh…I'm going to see them 2night in AHOY!!!! Looooovvvvveeeee Roxette!!!



    38. 38

      Night of the ProMMMMMs!!!!!!!!!!! and they started october 23th in ANTWERP, BELGIUMMMMMMMMMMM!!!!!!



    39. 39

      Dear Perez, it's Night of the Proms (not props!) hahaha… it's an event which is also being held in the UK (in the most famous Royal Albert Hall). An event where pop and classical music meet.



    40. 40

      UMM, YOU LIKE CHEESY MUSIC PERIOD, NOT JUST THE 90'S VARIETY! YOU'VE GOT THE SAME TASTE IN MUSIC AS MY 10 YEAR OLD…IMMATURE TWAT (YOU NOT MY KID!).



    41. 41

      Roxette is the best from the 90's and still rocks!



    42. 42

      she looks amazing and they rule!



    43. 43

      I wondered when we were going to hear from these two, love it!! Release something new please!



    44. 44

      She looks great, especially considering the fact that she was really sick with a brain tumor just a couple of years ago. Per, however, I can't stand. He's considered a bit of a joke here in Sweden. And their music is horrible!



    45. 45

      Take you on a sky ride, feeling like you're spellbound, the sunshine is a lady………..WHO ROCKS YOU LIKE A BABY!!!!!!
      She said hello…you fool, I love you…c'mon join the Joyride…



    46. 46

      Per Gessle, I can't stand that man…



    47. 47

      didn't she have a brain tumor or somrthing? I really thought that she had died, good to see I was wrong.



    48. 48

      It's "Night of the Proms"… and hell yeah she's looking smashing!!!



    49. 49

      LOOOOOVE ROXETTE!!!



    50. 50

      Re: moffifox – Your life seems to be a shit, but you would be doing something more important to go to the Perez's blog and insulting a music band.



    51. 51

      I've been there and they were very good! But you can see the whole situation she was in… Very sad to see, but very good to hear her singing!
