Roxette - "It Must Have Been Love (Live @ Bikini Barcelona, Barcelona) 2001 Pop-Rock / Soft Rock / Pop
Such a gutting loss for the world of pop music when Marie Fredriksson left this mortal coil six years ago. "It Must Have Been Love" was never my favorite song by Swedish pop duo Roxette, but it was one of the best soft-pop-and-rock ballads of its late 80s/early 90s time, and this intimate rendition of it performed solo by Marie with just her and her Korg in Barcelona in 2001 is damn-near lachrymal. Like, she doesn't even have to sing the first chorus, because this adoring Spanish crowd fully has her back to carry it through. So wonderfully pure, wholesome, and heartfelt. Such a terrific pop act with their own signature sound too—"The Look," which topped the American singles chart just like this tune, was such a lovely late 80s bop 🙌.

Medieval Burial With Decorated Longsword Found in Sweden
People crisscrossed a town square in Sweden. Cars drove through. Birds flew over, occasionally stopping to peck for food.
Underneath the hubbub of modern life, a medieval secret went unnoticed — not anymore.
Archaeological excavations of the Lilla Torg square in Halmstad found 49 graves from the medieval period, according to a Dec. 19 blog post from the Cultural Environment of Halland. The burials originally rested under a convent that functioned from 1494 to 1531.
One grave stood out from the others: the grave of a very tall, elite man.
Archaeologists uncovered the skeleton of a 6-foot-2 man with a longsword resting on his left side, officials said. The sword was well-preserved and measured over 4 feet in length.
An x-ray image of the sword showed an inlaid decoration of two crosses, archaeologists said. The crosses were likely made of precious metal. A photo shared by the Cultural Environment of Halland on Facebook shows this x-ray.
The remnants of the at least 500-year-old weapon measure about 4-feet-3, but the total length of the sword is unknown, the blog post said.
Swords are rarely found in medieval graves, the Cultural Environment of Halland said in a Facebook post. The presence of a sword indicates that the deceased was an elite or high-class person.
Archaeologists removed the sword, wrapped it up and sent it to a lab for preservation and further study. Excavations at the square are ongoing.
Halmstad is about 270 miles southwest from Stockholm.
