A-Teens

In addition the principal in the movie and in the video is played by the same actor. Anastacia has also promised all the procedes from her new single 'Heavy on my heart' will go towards her 'Anastacia fund' (Charitable organisation providing research funding for breast cancer). Their video for the ABBA cover "Dancing Queen" bears an unmistakable likeness plotwise to the 1985 John Hughes film "The Breakfast Club". However, the Anastacia album and "Left Outside Alone" had not been released in the US as at the end of April 2004. In late 2004, Dhani Lennevald released his first single as a solo artist titled "Girl Talk". Strong airplay throughout Europe caused the song to achieve a Top 40 Charts world airplay ranking as one of the top five songs played on top 40 radio stations throughout the world in April 2004. Like many before them, the A-Teens have not achieved success like ABBA has, but then again, what ABBA had was something rare and very hard to recreate. The "Left Outside Alone" single proved to be equally successfully reaching number 1 in Italy, Austria and Switzerland; and number 3 in the UK, and reaching the top 5 in Ausralia and on the composite European chart.

In this album, they have a couple new songs, including a cover of Nick Kamen's single "I Promised Myself". Anastacia proved to be a smash hit reaching the top of the album charts in the United Kingdom, Australia, Germany, and Italy and number 2 in Spain. Finally, their lastest album Greatest Hits was released in Europe in 2004, leaving their American fans waiting for the lastest installment in A-Teens albums. On the album, Anastacia also went for a more rock sound with the track "I Do", which featured Sonny Sandoval of P.O.D.. The group went on tour with Play and LYNT that year. The first single, released in March 2004, was "Left Outside Alone". After they released their second album, Teen Spirit, a year later, they toured in the US with American pop star Aaron Carter. Their penultimate album in the US, Pop 'til you drop, also known in Europe and Asia as New Arrival, was released in 2002. Anastacia subsequently established a fund through the Breast Cancer Research Fund to promote awareness of breast cancer amongst younger women. Anastacia entered record studios in September 2003 to record the Anastacia album with Glen Ballard, Dallas Austin, and Dave Stewart for release in 2004.

In 1999, they released their first album ABBA Generation consisting of ABBA covers. She immediately successfully completed a course of treatment. Therefore, not wanting to cause a confrontation with their musical predecessor and icon, they shortened their name to A-Teens. In January 2003, Anastacia discovered she had breast cancer while preparing for breast reduction surgery due to orthopedic reasons. They were first called the ABBA Teens, but a member of ABBA said that he would sue if they did not change their name. Anastacia also contributed a song "Love Is A Crime" to the Chicago soundtrack. The A-Teens are a pop group from Stockholm, Sweden, formed in 1998. Anastacia also joined Shakira, Cher and Mary J. Blige for VH1's Divas Live in 2002.

Sara has herpetophobia. Its debut single, "One Day In Your Life", though not a smash hit, just barely made the top 40 and was also a hit on the club charts and at rhythmic radio. Sara is the youngest and smallest member of the group, and is a brunette. However, her sophomore effort did beat its predecessor in her home country.

Her second album, 2002's Freak Of Nature achieved respectable sales although not matching the level of international success of Not That Kind. Dhani is the tallest in the group, and has blond hair and blue eyes. While "I'm Outta Love" was a top ten song on the US dance charts, Not That Kind only reached the lower parts of the Billboard 200, since the single never managed to cross over to the American pop charts.

It went triple platinum in Australia spurred by the success of her debut smash "I'm Outta Love" which was the most popular single of the year in that country for 2000. Amit is half-Indian and half-Swedish. Her debut album Not That Kind was released in 2000 and was a huge success reaching the top ten in eight countries in Europe, Asia, and Oceania.
