It’s 9th December and it has been a year since Marie Fredriksson passed away. On the anniversary, the single Sea of Love is released on the family’s initiative to honor the memory of Marie. This is the last song Marie recorded.
During Marie’s final years, she released a series of singles that were close to her heart; the jazz ballad Alone Again (2017), the blues cover I Want To Go (2017) and the big band ballad Sing Me a Song which was released in 2018 in connection with Marie’s 60th birthday.
Sea of Love was inspired by the demonstrations in Stockholm after the terrorist attack on Drottninggatan 2017, and the sea of people who stood up for love and reconciliation.
Listen to Sea of Love HERE.
Sea of Love
Like a sea of love, of love
You and I, me and you
You’re so strong and I’m so blue
Close to you I feel the sun
One for all and all for one
Place yourself in a world
Where every voice could be heard
Not just me, not just you
But all of us like a sea, sea of love, of love, of love
I woke up in a dream
We were one just like a team
We marched together with a common goal
Peace in mind and in your soul
Free to live your only life
Without hate and with no strife
In a world where we could live
Side by side like the sea, sea of love, of love, of love
You and I, me and you
You’re so strong and I’m so blue
Close to you I feel the sun
One for all and all for one
