Just seen on twitter Anastacia is back in the studio with some of the writers and producers that helped her on her 'Anastacia' album with hits such as Left Outside Alone and Sick and Tired.

Just listened to Left Outside Alone then, took me back! Still one of my favourite ever songs. Girl can sing. Anyone else a fan of Left Outside Alone?

Love it. I remember it was so close to winning Record of the Year(when it was on) but got pipped on the very last region voting

I was a huge fan of her 1st two albums, and whilst i absolutley loved LOA and the other singles from her 3rd album the record as a whole just didnt appeal to me, her 4th was just non exsistant in terms of actual songs...

Looking forward to see what she may bring to the table this time around, it'll be interesting to see what she comes up with and if she can have another hit single or two...she seems to be cropping up everywhere at the moment.

I remember that! I think Mcfly won it, Anastacia was easily the best. Funny enough it was THIS performance that turned me into an Anastacia fan. I bought her album the day later.

1st Busted - Thunderbirds Are Go - 92 points
2nd McFly - 5 Colours In Her Hair - 91 points
3rd Anastasia - Left Outside Alone - 90 points
4th Will Young - Leave Right Now - 88 points
5th Katie Melua - Closest Thing To Crazy - 79 points

So close but that was a good Busted song

Fantastic song. Back in the days when she was young and pretty and could still go.

It is a fantastically memorable tournament of vocal dynamism, yes.

I absolutely love her and am really excited that she's working with 'Anastacia' producers again!

I enjoyed that song, Love the Busted one though, easily their best and most McFly like.

Who the hell was voting for Katie Melua!?

I know right?! Busted were great fun cheesy pop, but that song was just a total joke!


Anyway back on topic, I love LOA and love Anastacia. Oh also, I love the other song mentioned in the op - Sick & Tired. That song really should have been huge!

They both were, as far as I'm aware!

Was Sick & Tired? That one really slipped by me if that's the case! I thought it was a minor hit at best!

I'm happy at this revelation! Anastacia deserves countless hits!

I think Sick and Tired is one of those songs that you wouldn't know it if someone said, but if you heard it you'd be like 'Ohhhhhhh I love this song!'

Oooh I forgot that one! I have it on iTunes #score!

Sick and Tired always made me laugh when the jamaican sounding guy seemed to drunkenly ramble after Anastasia sang!

Have any of you heard 'Welcome To My Truth'? It's a brilliant song by her that never really got the credit it deserved. Probably my favourite by her.

Heavy on my heart was a great track. The video is really sad too!

'One Day In Your Life', 'Left Outside Alone' & 'I'm Outta Love are my faves. Did LOA get to number one?

Anastacia made a comeback (of sorts) a couple of years ago, I think the song was called 'I Can Feel You'. It was dire!

It really was! And that's coming from a hardcore fan. Don't think she liked it herself lol.

She hinted in interviews after her comeback that her new label didn't allow her to release the tracks she wanted and that a part of having Ne-Yo as a producer on them she had to release his. Which explains why Heavy Rotation and Defeated were never released, instead I Can Feel You and Absolutely Positively.

She's a prime example of someone who over sings. I find her voice to be really jarring and harsh a lot of time, it's like listening to a foghorn.

Not her best track, but it's pretty good Heavy on my Heart is probably my favourite song of hers. Anyone seen the video? *cries*

I used to know I'm Outta Love and only discovered Left Outside Alone yesterday from this topic and it's a brilliant song!

I might get the Greatest Hits if I see it going cheap, she has a really good voice.
