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).

Wait For You
Fantasia Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Now I'm missing you and I'm wishing that you would come back through my door
Why did you have to go?
You could have let me know
So now I'm all alone
Girl you could have stayed but you wouldn't give me a chance
With you not around it's a little bit more than I can stand
Keep running down my face
Why did you turn away?
So why does your pride make you run and hide?
Are you that afraid of me?
But I know it's a lie what you keep inside
This is not how you want it to be
So baby I will wait for you
'Cause I don't know what else I can do
Don't tell me I ran out of time
If it takes the rest of my life
Baby I will wait for you
If you think I'm fine it just ain't true
I really need you in my life
No matter what I have to do I'll wait for you
It's been a long time since you called me (how could you forget about me)
You got me feeling crazy (crazy)
How can you walk away,
Everything stays the same
I just can't do it baby
What will it take to make you come back
Girl I told you what it is and it just ain't like that
Why can't you look at me,
You're still in love with me
Don't leave me crying
Baby why can't we just start over again?
Get it back to the way it was
If you give me a chance I can love you right
But you're telling me it won't be enough
So baby I will wait for you
'Cause I don't know what else I can do
Don't tell me I ran out of time
If it takes the rest of my life
Baby I will wait for you
If you think I'm fine it just ain't true
I really need you in my life
No matter what I have to do I'll wait for you
So why does your pride make you run and hide
Are you that afraid of me?
But I know it's a lie what you're keeping inside
That's not how you want it to be
Baby I will wait for you
Baby I will wait for you
If it's the last thing I do
Baby I will wait for you
'Cause I don't know what else I can do
Don't tell me I ran out of time
If it takes the rest of my life
Baby I will wait for you
If you think I'm fine it just ain't true
I really need you in my life
No matter what I have to do I'll wait for you
I'll be waiting
The lyrics to Fantasia's song "Wait For You" revolve around the theme of longing and waiting for a lost love to return. The singer expresses their deep affection for the person who left, lamenting their absence and wondering why they had to go without any explanation. The lyrics convey a sense of loneliness and the pain of being left behind.
Throughout the song, the singer questions why their love interest let their pride get in the way, causing them to run and hide. They emphasize that they know the person still has feelings for them and that this situation is not how they truly want it to be. Despite the heartache, the singer adamantly declares that they will wait for their lost love, even if it takes the rest of their life.

I have to say that this song is so easy on the ears. Well, my ears. It's makes me want to close my eyes and dance, even though it's a love anthem. It's such a timeless song. It's different for Fantasia, but I love it. I find myself singing the "On ana-on-ana-on-ana-on I'll Wait For you" at work all the time. Another thing I love about this song is the ending(the ooooo-hoooo part). I love that and wish she/they could have played with that a little more.

Tasia, this is an amazing track. I kind of wish I had this track when I got married. I enjoy this rock/soul. You have always had me bobbing my head but this one is one for the record books. Keep taking risks.
Joshua McDowell
I love this song. I was hooked as soon as I heard it. It's different, but I love it. I love the EDM feel. It reminds of something Disclosure would do.
