"Holding out for a Hero" is a must. Her voice is probably the best surgery mistake ever. Hence it can't really be replicated.

This song was gigantic. She has such a unique raspy voice. Wonderful. She also does another great song called."Its a Heartache" give it a listen

"Once upon a time I was falling in love, now I'm only falling apart," One of the greatest lines ever.

One of the biggest power ballads in the 80s pure class

I've heard this song a million times, and it still brings tears to my eyes...

"Holding Out For A Hero" should most definitely be next!

Bonnie Tyler had one of female Rock's greatest voice ever.

Written by Jim Steinman, the guy that wrote all the songs on Meatloaf bat out of hell album.

Rory Dodd who sings the male part on this is a superb artist in his own right.

It's a Heartache is also a great song.

I can’t describe what a huge, epic ballad-and hit-this was in the 80s. Seriously surprised y’all haven’t heard this just randomly somewhere- in a TV show, on the radio...somewhere.

I absolutely love how music can reach into someone's heart and reduce them to tears

In 1983, when I started dating my husband, this song was HOT! For months, when we would enter a store, this song would be playing. When my hubby would drive across the state to visit me, every time he had to find a new radio station, this song would be playing! It quickly became "our" song. My hubby plays this at least once a week for me. The past 6 weeks, I've been home recuperating from surgery and he plays this almost every afternoon. I truly loved watching you react to this very special song!

Ive always liked her voice, its definitely different! Jim Steinman and Meatloaf both gone now, a little magic has departed from this world.

My fave Bonnie Tyler is Holdin Out for a Hero. Feels like you've been captured by a villain and you're racing through the streets of some city in the middle of the night while your handsome, strong lover is on your tail, coming to rescue you from the bad guy. You can feel all of that just by listening to that song. It's a whole vibe.

This is one of those songs a 43 year old man shouldn't like, but dam, you can't deny the power.

Jim Steinman said He wrote "Total Eclipse Of The Heart" as a vampire love song. Look closely at the words.

The ultimate 80s power ballad, written by Jim Steinman and belted out by our Bonnie (Swansea boy here, I live 5 minutes up the road from her) with her unique voice

Awesome reaction! If you really like her voice you ought to try Kim Carnes Betty Davis Eyes it won't disappoint!

Her and Laura Brannigan are my favorites of the MTV era. I could listen to either of them sing the damn phone book!

If you allow total immersion into the song, it will make you cry. Always does me. I'm a grown man and can admit this, lol.

Her vocal performance is so raw and emotional it actually makes me tear up when I hear it.

This song takes you on an insane journey. Brilliant writing. Back when a time music meant something.

How sweet when you kissed her hand 🥰🥰🥰

Thank God for the 80’s, it was a time where artist took risks in exploring different sounds in their music and songs! If it wasn’t for the 80’s, I truly believe we wouldn’t have good music these days

I was 7 years old when this came out, and I still remember the feeling it gave me listening to it. It made me realize the power and effect music can have over someone.

And the award for craziest music video of the Eighties goes to...

1983..... Omg I cried the first time I heard this... I was 16....Im not crying... You're crying....😭😭😭💔

And that my friends, is how a power ballad is done.

she is so underrated. truly one of the greatest female voices of all time. I just feel though that these power vocal classic songs must have destroyed her vocal chords singing them for 40 years! cause wow she lets rip like Ive ever heard a female before. But I know she is still out there singing.

I was 11 when this was out, and you could imagine my excitement when this song hit #1. I took this stuff seriously. This was a smash in its time!!!

I absolutely loved Bonnie Tyler from the first time hearing her sing It's a Heartache & I'm still a fan at the age of 56 years old, she was magnificent then & she's still magnificent now!! 💜💯

This song was huge when it was released, the husky tone to her voice happened as a result of vocal surgery that didn't go to plan. She also duetted with meatloaf. Jim Steinman is the guy who wrote this song as well as a lot of meatloaf's hits, and he died only yesterday so finding this now makes me want to revisit all his back catalogue and you should too as there are some great songs in it.

The most powerful ballad in history. wonderful universal song of love. Epic interpretation of the greatest singer in history.

The look of respect on their faces when they heard Bonnie start to sing - brought tears to my eyes. Welcome to my generation.

This song runs the gamut on emotions. We are puppets and Jim and Bonnie are pulling the strings. This is his magnum oous. Truly a modern master of exciting, passionate, dramatic compositions.

I love this song, he voice is so amazing love that rasp she has. Definitely different especially in the 80s.

Cute Couple! I think Bonnie is the only person that could have sung this song. It was made for her. She is a National Treasure here in Wales.

"It's a Heartache",By Bonnie Tyler, is my favorite song by her

Welcome to the powerful vocals of our Welsh warbler, Bonnie Tyler ladies and gentlemen 🤘🏼

I'm always late, but this was her biggest hit. Also,"Holding out for a Hero" was big from the movie "Footloose". "It's a Heartache", is her first hit in 1978 which is awesome because it's a country song and she's Welsh.

When I was a teenager in the 1980s that song hit the charts on every radio station as specially Z100.

guess I was about 18 when this hit the charts , and it was a big hit at the time ! and it`s every bit as good today as it was then !

Bonnie Tyler was such a good singer, for some reason greatly under appreciated.

This song was a huge hit for Bonnie you must have heard it before somewhere it was written by Jim Steinman Meatloaf wanted it but Bonnie got it first she's just brilliant ❤️

This is a “Vampire love song”. That’s why the lyrics create images that seem abstract; but they’re just simple and descriptive. She’s singing about her “love in the dark”, since her vampire lover, “Bright Eyes” (his eyes glow!), can never be in the daylight, so she lives by night, too. However, she, the singer, is still human, even though she’s been with the vampire (who doesn’t get old) for such a long time, that she’s starting to grow old. So the story of the song, is that tonight she’s decided to surrender to the vampire (drink his blood or whatever) to become a vampire, too; and never age further, nor ever die. “Forever starts tonight !” Creepy. I always thought it was a song that was metaphor for something that’s hard to understand. But once I realized that the storyline was a vampire story, then it’s clear that the lyrics are simple prose (but creepy). When the song was first recorded, my teenage daughter and her friends, used to sing this ALL THE TIME ! I was concerned that it might be a “suicide story”; and not good for them to be so obsessed with ! So, I put some effort into understanding the lyrics. I was very relieved to figure out that it was just another monster fantasy. Romantic vampire stories were very popular, back then.

Holding on out for a hero is another 1.

Fell in love with Bonnie Tylor’s voice the first time I heard her sing! The rasp in her voice with her songs always takes me to a very happy place! The rasp in her voice is just awesome!

Sometimes, "WOW", is all you have to say!

The whole Faster Than The Speed Of Night album is amazing.

Can't beat Jim Steinman (RIP) the guy was a legend. Worked with Meatloaf too!!!

Bonnie is from Wales and surgery on her vocal nodules gave her the voice that was described as "The Female Rod Stewart." I'm sure you roller skated to this song as this was her biggest hit here in the US, spending five weeks at #1 on the Billboard Hot 100 Chart way back in 1983. This song was covered by Nikki French (more of a dance track) in 1994 & she took her version to #2.

Must check out “holding out for a hero” it is a definite must and “it’s a heartache” Bonnie Tyler is amazing absolutely love her voice!! Yeah

She's certainly got some pipes on her.

I’m a lucky 80s kid!! I grew up on this!! 🔥🔥

Thank you for being bold enough to try rare gems from the 80s.

Songs just hit different back in the glory days of Bonnie Tyler!

"Ravishing", "Angel Heart", and "Faster Than the Speed of Night". EPIC TRACKS!

No matter how corny the 80's got, there was some top-shelf music that was produced back then.

I love this video like really this is... know it's so freaking cheesy but man man man man you just don't see them make music videos like this anymore. The sets the lighting the extras the fog the props the candles. Ooooooooooooooooooooh it's so pretty. Like a world in your dreams, literally, it looks like the things you see in your sleep.

SM Squad! Holding Out For A Hero - Bonnie Tyler is the next reaction of hers you should do. It is 🔥🔥🔥. Love your reaction to Total Eclipse of the Heart, IMO it’s one of the most beautifully sung ballads of all time. Love to see your reaction after hearing this banger for the first time!!! SM Squad appreciates U!

THIS SONG WOULD BE A HIT IN ANY ERA, IT IS JUST THAT DARN GOOD!

For more Bonnie Tyler, "Holding Out for a Hero". For more music like this, this was written by Jim Steinman who worked a lot with Meatloaf. Check out "Bat out of Hell" and "I Would Do Anything for Love" Another Steinman song: "It's All Coming Back to Me" by Celine Dion (Meatloaf did a version too)

*JIM STEIMAN IS A GENIUS!!!!* He wrote this, "Holding out for a Hero" and the majority of Meatloaf's music. The male voice here is Rory Dodd who also sang on Meatloaf's songs.

She also sings a gospel song Heaven from her 1998 album All In One Voice….the last 8 seconds are breathtaking…..she sounds like cross between Tina Turner and Stevie Nicks

I love your reactions! This is only my second video I've seen of yours so far, but I'm subbing for the sole reason that you did not pause once! Now if you excuse me, I shall watch more vids. Keep it up you two!

As stated several times, this song was a MASSIVE hit.

Love this song and Bonnie's voice. Also a huge Elkie Brooks fan 💙🎶✊

Please! You MUST do “Holding Out For A Hero”.

Its so touchy to see how someone else melts on the same song that made you cry everytime you listen it ...thank you very much for sharing your emotions..

Bonnie Tyler does a great job with the song "The Best" which was a hit for Tina Turner in the US. Bonnie's verison is great too!

This song was written by Jim Steinman who also wrote Meatloaf's "Bat Out Of Hell".

This is real music.!!!!

Would you believe this was a song about Vampires? When i found out the video made a bit more sense....loving the awesome vocals still to this day.

If you've ever believed you were in love and lost it you feel this . Great react Loved IT

A human equalizer!! Tim Foust- "Will You Still Love Me Tomorrow/Stay"

Thanks for your reaction to this legendary song! Bonnie Tyler does a great job on this fantastic Jim Steinman song, the same guy who wrote all the Meatloaf hits! He also wrote "Making Love Out of Nothing At All" for Air Supply, a song the pair of you should get to some day! Peace!

The only word I ever had for this song is "devastating". It still brings tears to my eyes, it's so beautiful.

You should hear her song IT'S A HEARTACHE. It was earlier in her career. Her voice is so distinctive.

That was an amazing reaction, guys. Since I've grew up on this I didn't even felt it was anything special because heard it too many times, but you hearing it for the first time was amazing to see. This is why I watch reaction videos. Hugs from Sweden.

Bonnie is from Wales here in great Britain. You should listen to. Holding out for a hero. Another great song from Bonnie Tyler.

Beautiful song

I actually worked on her home 30 plus years ago as then a young glazing apprentice! In our home town of Swansea in South Wales 🥰

Man I appreciate these old songs i listen to them all day Saturday when I am cleaning my house 🌹👍👍👍 love it

All these reaction songs have one thing in common ... deep tension and bombastic relief... and good lyrics help

If you want more of this song, the studio album version is actually longer by about two minutes with added lyrics.

I am 62 and never understood how more records where not written for Bonnie Tyler, or Kim Carnes etc . I mean tgere voices are just full of soul and unmistakable

A powerfull legendary ballad by bonnie Tyler ... She got the larynx

Love this song. Just when you think it can't get any more epic, it does ;)

Her song from around 1978 called It's a Heartache. Very Good!!

Makes me fondly remember a younger crush I had years ago. I begged them to "turn around, bright eyes".

i love how y'all like start jamming: then the vocals hit and youre like "Hold up! Hold tf up!"

It gives me chills 🌹🌹🌹🌏🪐🍀🌕🙏🦋🐝🎶👣🇦🇺🏡🌴💮💐

Is a best song and stronger voice .Bonnie Tyler is amezing singer .Thanks for beautiful song .Sorry for my englesh. I know is bad .Im.from Romania .Far away You are a very nice cuple Much happy for you i wish ....

I just turned 65 yesterday and have been listening to a lot of songs from when I was growing up and used to know Singers, Band Members and writers and when I heard this today first things that I thought was I would like to see her with Meatloaf and then I remembered. I hate when I can't remember like I used to 😢.

RIP Jim such an amazing writer.

secret sauce tears, chills & smiles! one of the queen's faves. still has $, too. talented & smart. thanks & god bless, yall! whooooo!!!!!!!!! how many babies were made listening ? lol. snap!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

ahhh..the music of my teen years. Nothing can touch 80's music!

This composition (lyrics and music) is the product of Jim Steinman, a genius of the rock opera genre. He will leave us in a few days (April 19, 2021) after the recording of your present "Reactions". If you want to enjoy some more of his brilliant creations, I suggest you listen to: >>> Meat Loaf (he will die on January 22, 2022): "Two Out of Three Ain't Bad" (from the album "Bat Out Of Hell", 1977) and "I'd Do Anything for Love (But I Won't Do That)" (from the album "Bat Out OF Hell II: Back Into Hell", 1993); >>> Celine Dion: "It's All Coming Back To Me Now" (although Steinman wrote this song for her girl band Pandora's Box, it is Celine Dion's later cover that is now widely referred to.) Thanks.

It is the fact that thus song motivates the men and gives them their truth, that amazes. You don't believe, watch the men in as many reaction videos and you will, see.
