Fantasy is the fifth album by American singer-songwriter Carole King, released in 1973. At the time of its release, it climbed to number six on the US Billboard 200 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.
The Spanish language track "Corazón" (the Spanish word for "heart", also used as a term of endearment, as in this song's lyrics) was a moderate hit single from the album, as was "Believe in Humanity". The flip side of the latter single, "You Light Up My Life", charted separately from its A-side.
