Did you know there's a long version? (Of the song, not the flowchart, though another reply has that too) https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Svz-W5w2bPM There's a 7-minute version, with two more verses that aren't in the version you always hear on the radio. The one starting at 3:45 in that video is particularly powerful and chilling. | ||

> Every now and then, I know you'll never be the boy you always wanted to be. But every now and then, I know you'll always be the only boy who wanted me the way that I am. Every now and then, I know there's no one in the universe as magical and wondrous as you. Every now and then, I know there's nothing any better. There's nothing that I just wouldn't do. Well, I never knew this till now: > With 'Total Eclipse of the Heart', I was trying to come up with a love song and I remembered I actually wrote that to be a vampire love song. Its original title was 'Vampires in Love' because I was working on a musical of Nosferatu, the other great vampire story. If anyone listens to the lyrics, they're really like vampire lines. It's all about the darkness, the power of darkness and love's place in the dark. https://genius.com/Bonnie-tyler-total-eclipse-of-the-heart-l... | ||
