Fantasia Monique Barrino, or simply Fantasia (born June 30, 1984 in High Point, North Carolina), an African-American rhythm and blues singer, who came to fame as the winner of the third season of the television series American Idol.

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 Lönngren 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 Rönngård (drums) and Roul Helantie (organs & piano).

Lord for five long years
See you were my man

For five long years

Oh chain, chain, chain,

You treated me mean yeah
Oh you treated me cruel
Every chain has got a weak link
I might be weak child
But I'll give you strength
Oh chain, chain, chain,
Chain, chain, chain,

You told me to leave you alone

My doctor said take it easy
Oh but your lovin is much too strong

Overall Meaning

The lyrics to Fantasia's song Chain Of Fools talk about a woman who was in a relationship with a man for five years, during which time she thought that she was his woman, but in reality, she was just another link in his chain of women. She is heartbroken to discover that he was not faithful to her and that his love for her was not genuine. The woman is trapped in the relationship and cannot seem to break free from the chain of love that has bound her to this man. She feels like a "fool" for allowing herself to be used in this way but cannot escape his hold on her. She knows that she is a weak link in his chain, but she is determined to find the strength to break free and take control of her own life. The song ends with the hope that someday, the chain of love will break, and she will be free.
