Fantasia has released five studio albums Free Yourself (2004), Fantasia (2006), Back To Me (2008), Side Effects of You (2013), The Definition of... (2016), and a holiday album, Christmas After Midnight (2017).
In addition to her music career, Fantasia has also ventured into other pursuits such as publishing, acting, and Broadway. In her memoir "Life is Not a Fairy Tale", she reveals intimate details about herself, including her functional illiteracy. The book was later adapted into a Lifetime movie of the same name in 2006. Directed by famed actress and choreographer Debbie Allen, it received 19 million viewers, making it Lifetime's second-most viewed program of all time.
During 2007, Fantasia was on Broadway performing as Celie in The Color Purple, the hit musical based on the Pulitzer Prize-winning novel by Alice Walker. Her performance had earned rave reviews and helped boost ticket sales as well as her album sales. After her Broadway stint ended in January 2008, Fantasia was back on the road again touring and is said to be preparing for her next studio album.
2. Fantasia is also the first name from the French symphonic metalband Fairyland. They called themselves 'Fantasia' when they made demos like 'Cruel Death' and 'The King'. But when they came with their debute album, they changed their name in Fairyland.
3. Fantasia is a progressive rock band from Pietarsaari, Finland. Originally named St. Marcus Blues Band (founded in 1967), the bassist Markku Lรถnngren came up with the new name from Amazing Blondel's album called "Fantasia Lindum" and thus changed the name to "Fantasia" in 1973.
The band defined their sound somewhere between progressive rock and hard rock although the sound mainly resembles to those of the other 1970's prog rock bands, such as Finnish compatriots Wigwam and Tabula Rasa. Fantasia released only one self-titled album in 1975 with only 2000 copies sold (which made it a almost a "rarity" amongst the prog rock collectors), but has been reissued on CD by Rocket-Records in 2010.
Line-up: Hannu Lindblom (guitars & vocals), Harri Piha (bass), Karl-Erik Rรถnngรฅrd (drums) and Roul Helantie (organs & piano).
4. Fantasia is an expiremental trap metal band founded by Zxphyr

Fantasia Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
I still get a flashback
Of the time I spent
Thinking you could be that one
Should I have just kept your love?
As I understand,
We don' had some good times
Kept me crying all night
It was too much for my mind
So even though I left you
I can't forget you
'Cause when I think about you
It's bittersweet, it's bittersweet
Yes I'll always love you
It's bittersweet, it's bittersweet
When we were together
You ain't treat me right
Damn, I really loved ya
I ain't gonna lie
'Cause when I think about you
It's bittersweet
I still have a box
Full of things you gave me
Start to throw it out
Something always stops me, yeah
I'm not as over as I say
Deep inside my heart
I made the right decision
But it's kinda hard
When your mind is thinking of,
Did I make a big mistake?
Even though I left you
Can't forget you
'Cause when I think about you
It's bittersweet, it's bittersweet
Yes I'll always love you
It's bittersweet, it's bittersweet
When we were together
You ain't treat me right
Damn I really love you
I ain't gonna lie
When I think about you
It's bittersweet
See I have to understand
That, somebody is gonna get hurt
Out of this situation
And you just hope it's not you
At times
Part of me wants you, part of me don't
Part of me is missing you, part of me is gone
Part of me is saying that the love is still strong,
Part of me is letting go
So even though I left you
Can't forget you
Oh when I think about you
It's bittersweet, it's bittersweet
Yes I'll always love you
It's bittersweet, it's bittersweet
When we were together
You ain't treat me right
Damn I really loved ya
I ain't gonna lie
When I think about you, it's bittersweet
My love, my love, my love
It's bittersweet
Our love, love get hurt
Love get hurt just sometimes
This shit is bittersweet, bittersweet
The song "Bittersweet" by Fantasia is an emotional ballad about the complex feelings that come with leaving someone you once loved. The lyrics are reflective and speak to the conflicting emotions that can arise when looking back on a past relationship. The opening lines create a sense of nostalgia as the singer admits to still having flashbacks of the time she spent in the relationship. She questions whether she should have stayed with this person despite the fact that they treated her poorly.
The chorus of the song serves as a reminder that even though the relationship ended, the love still remains. She acknowledges that leaving was the right decision, but it's hard to forget the memories they shared. The word "bittersweet" perfectly sums up the feelings of longing and sadness mixed with the contentment of moving on. The bridge highlights the difficulty of letting go and moving on as a part of her still wants to stay and a part of her is already gone.

@thatgworl2504
This makes me think of someone I gave almost 3 years of my life to. I found out that he was already in a relationship but I stayed with him hoping that he will โchoose meโ I put myself through hell. Constantly being emotionally manipulated and neglected. He chose other people over me and it made me feel like I was never good enough for him. I finally let it go because I realized that he was never the man that god had for me. I still love him but I love me more.
