Jakarta, WISATA - Roxette, salah satu duo musik legendaris asal Swedia, masih tetap dikenang hingga saat ini atas lagu-lagu hits mereka. Salah satu lagu paling ikonik mereka adalah "It Must Have Been Love," yang sukses besar saat dijadikan soundtrack film "Pretty Woman" pada tahun 1990. Film yang dibintangi oleh Richard Gere dan Julia Roberts ini berhasil mencuri hati penonton dan menjadi salah satu film drama komedi romantis terlaris sepanjang masa.
"It Must Have Been Love" adalah lagu ketiga dari empat lagu Roxette yang berhasil menduduki peringkat pertama di tangga lagu Amerika Serikat. Roxette juga meraih popularitas dengan lagu-lagu hits lainnya seperti "Listen To Your Heart," "Spending My Time," "The Look," "Dressed For Success," "Fading Like A Flower," "Joyride," dan "Crash! Boom! Bang!"
Roxette terdiri dari dua anggota, yaitu Per Gessle dan Marie Fredrikson. Marie Fredrikson, sebagai vokalis Roxette, juga dikenal sebagai pengarang lagu, pianis, dan pelukis. Namun, pada tanggal 9 Desember 2019, dunia kehilangan Marie Fredrikson akibat kanker saat berusia 61 tahun, dan seolah grup duo Roxette berhenti eksis. Meskipun sejak Marie diketahui sakit, grup ini memutuskan untuk tidak aktif.
Mengenang lagu-lagu Roxette, khususnya "It Must Have Been Love," seringkali membuat para penggemar teringat akan sosok Marie Fredrikson dengan suaranya yang jernih dan khas. Gaya panggungnya yang unik, seperti rambutnya yang sangat pendek dan celana kulit ketat, juga menjadi ciri khas yang sulit dilupakan.
Berikut adalah lirik lagu "It Must Have Been Love":
Must have been love But it's over now
Lay a whisper on my pillow Leave the winter on the ground I wake up lonely, this air of silence In the bedroom and all around
Touch me now, I close my eyes And dream away
It must have been love, but it's over now It must have been good, but I lost it somehow It must have been love, but it's over now From the moment we touched, 'til the time had run out
Make-believing we're together That I'm sheltered by your heart But in and outside I turn to water Like a teardrop in your palm And it's a hard winter's day I dream away
It must have been love, but it's over now It was all that I wanted, now I'm living without It must have been love, but it's over now It's where the water flows It's where the wind blows
It must have been love, but it's over now It must have been good, but I lost it somehow It must have been love, but it's over now From the moment we touched, 'til the time had run out
Yeah, it must have been love, but it's over now It was all that I wanted, now I'm living without It must have been love, but it's over now It's where the water flows It's where the wind blows
but it's over now No, no, no (It must have been love) (But it's over now) but it's over now No, no, no
Lagu "It Must Have Been Love" selain menjadi ikon soundtrack film "Pretty Woman," juga meninggalkan kenangan manis bagi para penggemar Roxette dan musik-musik legendaris dari duo asal Swedia ini.
