      I think Total Eclipse of the Heart might be one of my earliest music memories, I remember being 5/6 and singing along so hard to the radio that I accidentally broke a vase (with my flailing hands not my voice). RIP to a legend.

      So sad to hear that – I lover her husky voice and her persona. May she rest in peace.

      🙁 Really sad to hear this. I walk past her house a lot and was hoping for her recovery <3

      My mum was a huge fan. My whole childhood and teen years were filled with lots of Bonnie’s music. Rest in peace legend 💔

      I know everyone’s mentioning Total Eclipse, which I totally get, but I’ve always loved If You Were a Woman (and I was a Man) waaaay better.

      RIP Bonnie.

      Devastating. Might have to rewatch my favorite musical (Tanz der Vampire) in her honor.

      I know she had other songs but Total Eclipse of the Heart is a once in a lifetime song truly, the drama, the vibe, her husky “unusual” voice, just legendary. RIP.

      Celebrity deaths this year have just been one after another. Ugh. RIP Bonnie Tyler, I really thought she’d beat the odds and make it after it was reported she came out of her coma.

    11. Immediately went to listen to “Total Eclipse Of The Heart” after this, so sad to hear. 😞
