A few of Anastacias, Q&A from Los40 1 radio station. *the full length is on the anastacia xtra page (ClickHereForAllQ&A)

4. When are you going to release a new album? We really want a live album from you! The live album will come after the summer. I'll start writing and recording the new album in 2006.

5. Out of singing the way you do, do you play any instrument? No. I play one instrument: my voice. I sing to my producers in every instrument. You should hear me sing the drums!

7. I heard you are going to live in London, is it true? I'm renting a house in April, but I won't live there permanently.

11. Listening to "Left Outside Alone" it seems like you're a true believer. Have you always kept the faith in God? I've never lost my faith, no matter what happened in my life. For me, Hope is God, you cannot have one thing without the other. This is what i believe and to hear Anastacia repeat it is fan-freakin-tastic'

Anastacia News:

**pictures from Anastacias tuesdays unplugged gig in madrid are; here, here, here, and here *posted on the AFU MB so i pursume for all to take a look at, the one of Anastacia holding up the signed CD is a very cool picture - enjoy*

***also at the unplugged gig, it was announced Anastacia plans to release her next album in 2006 a long way off, but she only just released 'Anastacia' and i'm sure she won't disappear on us for months then reappear in 2006, as 2005 big European tour again etc etc...

****WTMT (current single) has dropped out of the UK top 40 - i personally believe this is down to lack of promotion for the single, it also being released to quickly after the extreme success of LOA and SnT - also single sales in the uk have gone down dramatically over the last year due to internet downloads (legal ones) and with the album 'Anastacia' going three times platinium in Europe i'm thinking everyones already got a copy of WTMT and don't feel the need to purchase another copy, saying that the 'b' side 'The Saddest Part' is worth the extra copy.

Anastacia News:

** new arrivals in the 'keep sprockin' gallery - original pictures of Anastacias live EMAs Roma performance including redcarpet snaps also in the gallery, pictures from saturday nights live Record of the Year performance and a couple backstage snaps - enjoy!

(from record of the year)

**keep 'a'sprockin

**Anastacias 'Heavy on my Heart' single including previously unreleased track 'underground army' will have all proceeds going straight to the 'Anastacia Breast Cancer Fund' ... so if that alone isnt a reason to buy a copy of the single, i don't know what is! (single is dew for release later this month) **

Anastacia News:

**2 points kept Anastacia from taking the Record of the Year, ***&%$*"%^ arghhhh. she led on the score board practically all the way, and it came down to the last voting results to determine the winner!! in my opinion LOA was and is record of the year!

Anastacias performance was fantastic and this time it WAS LIVE could be the different tv channel mean't she was able to sing live this time. her outfit a freaky blue number, hair makeup rather middle east inspired and the camera shots of her messing around back stage whilst the votes were being counted classic, Ana. she was a good sport, dont think she realised how popular she really is, even if a sell out tour doesn't tell her so.

so a flying visit on her way to spain for the unplugged gig. ohh i'm sure pics of the performance will be already online, devoted fans she has all online.

***

**Tonight on the 'Record of the year,' Anastacia will be performing, LOA which has been voted in to the top ten records of the year (for the UK) by the public and a live final will take place tonight, at 5:15pm ITV1. so make sure you watch it long enough to get Anastacias voting number and VOTE! *only if you want to not cos you should!*

sprock to you drop on a saturday night!

ClickHere for Official Live At Last Tour Merchandise!

For everyone who missed out on the 'Live at Last' tour, OR went and didn't purchase any merchandise, you can find it all on line (link above) some of the stuff looks alittle different to what was at the shows, to what I personally saw.

** Anastacia will perform a unplugged concert in Madrid on 7th December, at the Hard Rock Cafe. Rumor has it is co-insides to a DVD premiere/release which could be the London Hospital Gig or less likely from her recently finished European tour - oh we shall all have to wait and see!!! only 30 lucky people allowed at the gig - very lucky indeed.

** A book documenting the 46664 charity concert was launched by Mandela and performers in London, last week.
Named after Mandela's prison number, the five-hour concert in Cape Town featured more than 30 global stars raising money to combat Aids and HIV.
More than 40,000 people attended the 46664 concert in Cape Town"This book is a record of that with pictures and words from all my friends involved."
Performers included Bono, Beyonce, Ms Dynamite, Anastacia,Zucchero and the Eurythmics.

Anastacia Tells us how it is..:
Anastacia on her cancer op: ""In my naivety, I thought reconstruction would just be like scooping out mashed potato from one part and dolloping it into another; I had no idea how incredibly painful it would be.Afterwards I was crying with pain, I didn't want to move and my energy was just so low."*2004* ~~~~~ Anastacia at start of her 2005 European Live at Last Tour (feb 2005) ~ "It was wonderful. I loved it! It is always hard to come back from a little break when you take some time off so my “sea legs” have come back on and I am excited to be back. I am excited to connect with my fans again. We are going to some new territories that I am excited to go to and some of the old territories as well where apparently the people, bless their hearts,did not get enough!" ~~~~~~~ "I JUST WANT MY AUDIENCE TO UNDERSTAND, to HOLD YOUR HEAD HIGh BE PROUD OF WHAT YOU GOT, LOVING YOUR WHOLE SELF. NOT THAT KIND, FREAK OF NATURE EVERYTHING I REPRESENT is ABOUT THAT THING." ~~~~~~~ "This year (2004) wasincredible but there where alot of steps of encouragement and stuff that I learned with this year and Iwrite alot about what i've learned and this was the first song I wrote on the album (Anastacia) I didn't mean to write it but it's part of what just happens when you feel what you feel, the song ladies and gentlemen is called 'heavy on my heart." (live london 'the hospital' gig 03/04) ~~~~~~ "I was aware of what I was writing, of what was flowing from my heart, and I was aware what people might be reading into the subject matter of the songs. I challenged myself both lyrically and melodically to stay true to those feelings and at the same time use them in a positive way. (talking about 'anastacia' the album) ~~~~~~ "I want to thank all my fans for their support and I made this record to share with them. It's kind of like letting someone close to you in on a dark secret and hope that they understand and love you anyway. It lets you know that everything is okay." (talking about 'anastacia' the album) ~~~~~~ "I had more of a vision in my head that maybe wasn’t there on the first album. It shows growth, this album, an artist’s growth" (talking about the 'freak of nature' album. ~~~~~~ ''I got through my treatment (cancer) because of 'Friends, Family and Freak.'' ~~~~~~ (Glamour Mag interview 04, talking about her cancer illness)....''I've become happier by not living on the surface and living deeper.<BR> Which is probably why I've become the artist and the person I am." ~~~~~~ ''Denial, disbelief, anger, depression. I spiritually fell apart." ~~~~~~ "'Life is about living. It's not about yesterday. It's about today. Most people don't, understand that part of enjoying what you're doing on this earth, is to enjoy the moment you're in. Instead of worrying about the moment you've just had, or stressing about the moment you're gonna have. And then all the moments you could've experienced so beautifully have passed you by. And you can't get them back. Honey, it's all about the REAL world." ~~~~~~ ''I was more hurt because I had no way of calling, in seven minutes, all of my friends who might have potentially seen this on the news. A lot of my acquaintances ended up calling me and laughing, saying, 'I've heard the craziest shit on the TV!' And I had the hardest time putting the word cancer and my name in the same sentence.'' (talking about her being outed with cancer via the media) ~~~~~~ ''I'm happy, proud of what I do. I'm working so hard, concentrating on the new single and loving it. Everyday I learn something. I'm a work in progress.'' ~~~~~~ ''I wear them all the time. I wear them on stage, God I wear them when I pee, is the reality. I can't see the toilet paper without them.''(talking about her eyesight) ~~~~~~ ''I don't drink when I sing. There are many dinners where I'm like 'I'm singing tomorrow, I can't. I've been drunk in my time, of course, but it's not something i'll do on purpose. I don't like to feel lost.''(mirror newspaper interview)
