@@PugetSoundFlyer I am 59 years old and she has had a very hoarse voice all the way back to " It's A Heart Ache " and earlier..." Lost In France " 1973
wow. He is making her work (and I mean that in a good way) to move in and out of clean voice and get that grit she does is not easy. she is amazing as is Jim!! This is such a gem of a moment!!
I had to go to the music video to fully appreciate the 'exorcism' he spoke of and now it is clear what he had to pull out of Bonnie Tyler for this masterpiece.
Steinman definitely seems to be operating at genius level here. He rattles off every detail of the industry, its history and the songwriting artform in rapid succession without missing a beat. He knows exactly what he wants in his direction of Bonnie. You can hear all the raw power in her voice come out as he shapes it into the song's final form.
I love this! Jim showed he was patient, but had a vision for the song that was deliberate Ms Tyler was magnificent. She understood there was a greater vision for the song. Yielded to the experience, and had a major hit.
OMG,I had no idea how much hard work went into Total Eclipse of the Heart.Bonnie shows what a consummate professional she is ,Jim clearly respects her ,this is a beautiful moment in time between 2 legends ,awesome
Just amazing.. wonderful to see it from the beginning. And to see it in 2019 how it came out to be the song that it is. It's AMAZING.. I USED TO LISTEN TO IT BACK THEM AND TO THIS DAY I STILL DO IT.. NEVER GET TIRED OF HEARING IT... KEEP IT UP BONNIE..
those beautiful angels! i'm so happy they started working together, shes perfect for singing his songs! and he seems so wonderful to work with, hes an absolute dream
Jim Steinman and Bonnie Tyler teamed up to create this masterpiece of a song at the right time. Bonnie's voice changes so much throughout her years of singing 1976 (Lost in France and It's a Heartache 1978) to 1983 (Total Eclipse of the Heart and Holding out for a Hero 1984) Bonnie's voice was so different. If you listen to her singing Total Eclipse live in 1988/89 it sounds different again. Jim Steinman definitely got the vocals that he wanted at the right time within a 5 year gap Bonnie's voice changed again. Incredible songwriter, fantastic singer - result = Total Eclipse of the Heart ❤️ 💙 💜
Ugggg. Either let me hear Jim and Bonnie working on the song, or let me hear Bonnie talking. Both at the same time makes it hard for me to truly hear either.
@@dreampollution Good afternoon my friend. Jim will be missed for songs to. Do you ever talk with Bonnie Tyler because it's hurt me seeing her videos doing concerts in europe and coming to North American at all does think about her fan's buy her music an don't come here for concert. If you talk with her explain to her that i seen ABBA coming to do a reunion concert and was going the United States of America and not coming to Canada so when to radio stations here and told them about ABBa not doing 1 concert in Canada they told thanks we will not play there music here at all. I don't want to do the same with Bonnie Tyler too
Jm Steiman was probably the most unknown and underappreciated talent in modern music history.. simply Brilliant
He really pushed her voice !! She was all ways hacking her head off !! Was she a smoker ?? I don't know ????
You must be kidding...or very young :)

i could watch ten hours of this
Even Bonnie did not know what her voice was capable of. But Jim did, and persisted. And boy did he get a legendary performance out of it. Amazing 🤩

A great vocalist teamed with a great writer/arranger. The end result is sublime.

Thanks for this!
He plays piano really well.
they are so cool
Jim's not stupid,he knows what he's looking for in a voice and when I first heard this song I thought it was the greatest.
Jim Steiman was a great songwriter ,so good he released two songs that should have had equal billing as number one back in the early 80s
1:28 Question was "Jim, you need a coffee?"
She is so very very cute !!! :D Im dying !!!
What a genius!
wow.. singer's dream
When I think of Jim and Meat I think of Bernie and Elton super team and forever brilliant ! I wonder how involved with melodys Bernie was
Incredible. Watching the birth of a song. RIP Jim, you were and still are a legend.
bonnie was so hot and talented with an unique voice! Today she is... still hot and talented with an unique voice.

Love you Meat Loaf xx Bonnie Tyler xx

You mean, like, Bonnie Tyler is BRITISH? I'm CRUSHED!
