The bit that you skip #214: Bonnie Tyler - Total Eclipse of the Heart
It’s an obvious choice, and perhaps I could’ve gone for Lost in France (pre-surgery vocals) or It’s a heartache (with her gravelly, raspy voice we all loved), but I can’t lie, I’m a sucker for the Steinman-penned rock ballad. Russell Mulcahy’s video is one for the ages. You can see how he cut his teeth directing and landed the Highlander gig. You can always tells when a video is directed by him…
Meat Loaf & Karla DeVito - Paradise By The Dashboard Light
Meat Loaf & Cher - Dead Ringer for Love
Remember the ghost motorcyclist driving down the mansion stairs in Celine Dion's cover of It's All Coming Back To Me Now?
You can't mention Total Eclipse of the Heart without me belting it out regardless of where we are. That's how powerful that song is.
Bonnie Tyler's queer fever dream directed by Jim Steinman
♫ R.I.P. Bonnie Tyler ♫ Yesterday brought sad news for the music world ... Welsh singer Bonnie Tyler had died. I only remember a couple of her songs, but they were ones that I liked very much. ...
No me voy a andar con rodeos con Bonnie Tyler, subo sus canciones más famosas que son las que más me gustan. Además me va el rollo dramático y romántico, grandioso e imperial, wagneriano y spectoriano, teatral y aventurero de Jim Steinman con o sin Meat Loaf.
No sé si "Eclipse Total del Corazón" es una canción cool o chic, y créanme si les digo que verdaderamente me la suda. Es una canción estupenda. Y sólo la podía cantar Tyler.
Steinman fue épico, fantasioso y divertido. Su chica acabó siendo Bonnie Tyler (con permiso de Carla de Vito y sobre todo de Ellen Foley), y su menda el orondo y sudoroso Marvin Lee Aday, es decir "cachocarne" patatacaliente, cuya fórmula musical aproximada para acceder al éxito masivo fue: Bruce Springsteen + Boston + The Who + Phil Spector.
