Total Eclipse of the Heart - Bonnie Tyler: What You Ought To Know

By Martin Reynolds


Well, who doesn't know this song? It's the new millennium and yet a lot of younger generation, hardly doesn't know the lyrics to the song. It's been on full throttle ever since Bonnie Tyler have debuted this song and now a major favorite in a lot of karaoke bars. However, there's definitely more to it that simply being a song and perhaps, you will never listen to the song "Total Eclipse of the Heart - Bonnie Tyler" the same way you ever did before.

Are you aware that the song 'Total Eclipse of the Heart', which produced such a enormous radio hit in 1983 by Bonnie Tyler may well most likely have pedophilia elements surrounded on it?

It is actually true, though, the song might sound innocuous enough- but heck, the public listening to it just simply love it, and still continues to play it for the nth time on various radio stations and audio players all over the globe.

The song is totally overplayed in some Asian countries too like the Philippines, but given the fact that Max Weinberg, who happens to be the musical director of the Late Night with Conan O'Brien show, and also the band leader for the Max Weinberg 7 and a resident drummer for the Bruce Springsteen's E Street Band, have played the drum tracks for the song "Total Eclipse of the Heart" simply made it extremely awesome for every fanatics once again.

However do check this out: watch the music video more intently, and look for at the different factors in it. It would appear that Bonnie Tyler is like floating around on a dream, moving via a hall with rooms- actually, numerous of rooms, with so many of boys- found in a classroom, a number of vivid orbs for the eyes ('bright eyes', without a doubt), other folks dancing around and etcetera.

Because the song carries on more, everyone is working around a grooving craze (at least some kinds of interpretative dance), and then this teen is only putting on a training pants with gigantic wings expanding out of his back (happens to be an angel), envelopes his arms round the now crying Bonnie Tyler.

Video then concludes with a scene around the steps of a private school, and we then see Bonnie Tyler's character, apparently, a grade school teacher. She gets acquaint with the boys in her class- who looks seemingly inoffensive enough- until one of them gets hold of her hand and then looks at her with...bright orbs for eyes- "Bright Eyes" Boy from the dream! Probably, the school teacher was fantasizing about her students and then the events which transpired the night that indicates it isn't really a dream.

You can read more about "Total Eclipse of the Heart" online. In the meantime,you can check your facts on a lot of sites online as well. Lyrics are provided in case you want to sing along- just for some instances. Of course, you ought to read more of them all over again and perhaps, you could find some hidden meaning behind the lyrics, now that you already have an idea what the video was all about. Again, that is Max Weinberg on drums.
