人们总是对Bonnie Tyler的两件事感到很好奇∶一是她湛蓝色的眼睛;另一则是为何她对未来,永远抱著乐观与喜悦的态度?Bonnie说∶「我的眼睛天生就是这麽蓝,我真的没有戴有颜色的隐形眼镜。」对Bonnie而言,她的眼线和早晨的第一杯咖啡同样重要,「没有画上眼线,我就觉得好像少了点什麽。如果旅馆失火了,我宁可不穿衣服跑到大街上,也不能不画眼线!」幽默感一向是Bonnie的特质之一,另外一个特质,就是她对成功的态度,虽然她已在全球造就了多首热门单曲,而且首首是排行榜的常胜军,但是对於自己的成功,她仍表示∶「不管我有没有上排行榜前十名,对我来说都没差别,因为我丈夫Robert还是会照样把茶端到床上给我喝。」

「从我可以思考开始,我就开始唱歌了。我想可能是因为,我妈妈总是一天到晚哼哼唱唱的,我得想个方法与她对抗!」Bonnie如此回忆道。她与四个兄弟姐妹,在威尔斯一个叫做Skewen的美丽小村庄中长大,她拿零用钱买的第一张专辑,是Beatles的 A Hard Days Night。「当时我很迷Janis Joplin与Tina Turner,我常常拿著梳子当麦克风,在镜子前面表演,并随著她们的歌曲,在房间中舞上几小时。」

这样的演练,很快的得到了回响。17岁那年,Bonnie参加一项才艺竞赛,获得了第二名,「这使我有勇气成立一个乐团。」她说。结果,她以主唱身份成立了乐团Imagination,在家乡当地红了七年之久。那段日子_,白天时她在超市当收银员,晚上时则在酒吧与俱乐部中演唱,一个星期中通常有六个晚上都排得满满的。1969年,在她的一次现场演唱中,听众席上有个人鼓掌的特别起劲,他就是Bonnie现在的丈夫----Robert Sullivan,从此,这个男人就成为她绚烂演艺生活中,一个稳靠的基石。1976年,Bonnie获得一纸唱片合约,以单曲 Lost In France 获得国际乐坛的瞩目,这首歌在德国Top10排行榜中停留六个月之久。一个摇滚巨星就此诞生!

1976年底,Bonnie经历了一次声带手术。「我奉命六个星期不能说话,但是我并没有遵守。」这位46岁的超级女歌手说。Bonnie 并没有因此自怨自艾、也没有遵守医生的指示,反倒使她原本就独树一格的歌声,更加的有磁性,从她1978年推出的 It's a Heartache一曲中,听众就可以见识她声音的魅力。该曲一发行,旋即在全欧洲的排行榜拿下榜首,甚至将Michael Jackson的 Billie Jean挤下冠军宝座。

1983年,Bonnie找到了她音乐制作上好搭档Jim Steinman,他曾为Meat Loaf写过许多好歌。这对完美搭档交出的第一份成绩单,就是专辑「Faster Than The Speed Of Night」 ,它在非常短的时间内,便稳坐英国排行榜首,同时在美国获得白金唱片佳绩。该专辑中的单曲 Total Eclipse of the Heart,深深触动许多听众的心弦,所以成为百万销售热门单曲,在英美两地都拿下单曲榜冠军。「我爱极了这首歌,总是一遍又一遍的演唱它,从不厌倦。」不久後,Bonnie又陆续造就了 Holding Out For A Hero (1986)及 If You Were a Woman (1988)两首热门单曲。

1994年,德国声誉极高的Echo奖,将「最佳国际女歌手」的头衔颁给了Bonnie Tyler。「我的墙上已经没有空间了,我必须在厨房_腾一块地方出来。」Bonnie开玩笑的说到自己所获得的各种奖项。她对自己的生活感到很快乐,她说∶「我自己没有小孩,但是我的16个侄子与侄女,让我的大房子热闹的不得了。」目前她正在学习法文,「我们尽量挪出时间,待在我们葡萄牙的家中,但是每回我们住在那时,我都很懊恼,不知道如何和我的法国邻居聊天,他们家没有人会说英文,我们家又没有任何人会说葡萄牙语,所以现在我决定来学他们的语言。」这样一来也好,因为Bonnie再也不会「迷失在法国」(Lost In France 她的代表歌曲)了!



TOTAL ECLIPSE OF THE HEART (Bonnie Tyler )

Turnaround, every now and then I get a
little bit lonely and you're never coming around
Turnaround, Every now and then I get a
little bit tired of listening to the sound of my tears
Turnaround, Every now and then I get a
little bit nervous that the best of all the years have gone by
Turnaround, Every now and then I get a
little bit terrified and then I see the look in your eyes
Turnaround bright eyes, Every now and
then I fall apart
Turnaround bright eyes, Every now and
then I fall apart

Turnaround, Every now and then I get a
little bit restless and I dream of something wild
Turnaround, Every now and then I get a
little bit helpless and I'm lying like a child in your arms
Turnaround, Every now and then I get a
little bit angry and I know I've got to get out and cry
Turnaround, Every now and then I get a
little bit terrified but then I see the look in your eyes
Turnaround bright eyes, Every now and
then I fall apart
Turnaround bright eyes, Every now and
then I fall apart

And I need you now tonight
And I need you more than ever
And if you'll only hold me tight
We'll be holding on forever
And we'll only be making it right
Cause we'll never be wrong together
We can take it to the end of the line
Your love is like a shadow on me all of the time
I don't know what to do and I'm always in the dark
We're living in a powder keg and giving off sparks
I really need you tonight
Forever's gonna start tonight
Forever's gonna start tonight

Once upon a time I was falling in love
But now I'm only falling apart
There's nothing I can do
A total eclipse of the heart
Once upon a time there was light in my life
But now there's only love in the dark
Nothing I can say
A total eclipse of the heart

Turnaround bright eyes
Turnaround bright eyes
Turnaround, every now and then I know
you'll never be the boy you always you wanted to be
Turnaround, every now and then I know
you'll always be the only boy who wanted me the way that I am
Turnaround, every now and then I know
there's no one in the universe as magical and wonderous as you
Turnaround, every now and then I know
there's nothing any better and there's nothing I just wouldn't do
Turnaround bright eyes, Every now and
then I fall apart
Turnaround bright eyes, Every now and
then I fall apart

And I need you now tonight
And I need you more than ever
And if you'll only hold me tight
We'll be holding on forever
And we'll only be making it right
Cause we'll never be wrong together
We can take it to the end of the line
Your love is like a shadow on me all of the time
I don't know what to do and I'm always in the dark
We're living in a powder keg and giving off sparks
I really need you tonight
Forever's gonna start tonight
Forever's gonna start tonight

Once upon a time I was falling in love
But now I'm only falling apart
There's nothing I can do
A total eclipse of the heart
Once upon a time there was light in my life
But now there's only love in the dark
Nothing I can say
A total eclipse of the heart
