Tracks: Fantasy Beginning You've Been Around Too Long Being At War With Each Other Directions That's How Things Go Down Weekdays Haywood A Quiet Place To Live Welfare Symphony You Light Up My Life Corazon Believe In Humanity Fantasy End About The Record: Fantasy, by American singer-songwriter Carole King, reached number 6 on the Billboard album chart, and has remained highly regarded by her fans over the ensuing decades. Presented as a sort of song cycle, the album opens and closes with two versions of the title song and the songs on each side segue directly into one another. Fantasy was the first album to break the immediately recognizable, cozy sound set by Writer and made definitive by Tapestry. In the place of the warm, spare tones was a polished, soulful production. You've Been Around Too Long comes off as subtle and accomplished, especially with David T. Walker's great guitar work. Believe in Humanity and Corazon were top 40 hits.
