Turn Around

When the song says "turn around, bright eyes" they mean it literally in this video. Those are some bright eyes. It's Bonnie Tyler's birthday today and she turns 61 I believe. Wow. Here is her most famous song, a song that went all the way to number one in numerous countries including the U.S. where I believe it made her the first and only Welsh to achieve that feat. The video features fencing, some half-dressed football players, some gymnastics, and Bonnie's dramatic flair. Some almost 30 years later this video is still one creep video... here is "Total Eclipse of the Heart"...
