A rocking mature lady belting out a great singalong pop song, Anastacia had a big hit with this in 2000, and followed it up later with other hits. I only ever bought this CD single, and after more than two decades I still enjoy hearing it. Having suffered twice with breast cancer, she has managed to fully recover and is still performing at the age of 55.
Ooooha
Whoa
Yeah yeah yeah yeah
Oh yeah
Aha
Now baby come on
Don’t claim that love you never let me feel
I shoulda known
‘Cause you brought nothin’ real
C’mon be a man about it you won’t die
I ain’t got no more tears to cry and I can’t take this no more
You now I gotta let you go and you know
Ooooha
Whoa
Yeah yeah yeah yeah
Oh yeah
Aha
Said how many times
Have I tried to turn this love arond?
But every time
You just let me down
Come on be a man about it
You’ll survive
True that you can work it out all right
Tell me, yesterday
Did you know?
I’d be the one to let you go?
And you know

Despite being American, it seems she was not well known in her own country.
Best wishes, Pete.

And she took that note, had it laminated, perfumed it, framed it, and put it up on the wall above her bed. Oh, wait… That must be in a different video!

You lost me a bit there. (But my wife is on a loud video call to a friend in Wales, so I can’t concentrate.)

In the end of the video. Anastacia tears up the note that had been passed to her and drops it on the ground.

I got confused there for a mo as you missed out the chorus! Love Anastasia and have a DVD of one of her concerts, she’s amazing singing live and incredibly glamorous. Her first 2 albums are full of great songs, the first especially. She isn’t well known in America because she got cancer just as her first album was done so she couldn’t promote it and so it didn’t get released there.

I used the lyrics I could find. I think the video plays the full song though. I was surprised she wasn’t known in the US, but did read about her cancer issues. Glad you like her.
Best wishes, Pete.
