Musical Monday - Total Eclipse of the Heart by Bonnie Tyler


#1 on the Billboard Hot 100: October 1, 1983 through October 22, 1983.
#1 on the Cash Box Top 100: October 8, 1983 through October 29, 1983.
#1 on the U.K. Chart: March 12, 1983 through March 19, 1983.

I know, everyone is using this song to commemorate the solar eclipse, but it isn't going to happen again in the United States until 2024, so I'm not at all sorry to jump on and do it too. Besides, this version of the song comes packaged with a video that features the tenth Doctor and his ill-fated romance with Rose.
