I told you Bonnie Tyler was going to benefit from the eclipse.
Right now, Bonnie’s 1984 hit “Total Eclipse of the Heart” is Number 1 on the iTunes top 100 singles.
Imagine how many people bought it in the last 24 hours to hit the top spot!
Meanwhile, Pink Floyd’s 1972 “Dark Side of the Moon” is number 3 on the albums chart– behind J Cole and Beyonce.
Eclipse music fans would be smart to check out The Police’s “Invisible Sun” and Carly Simon’s “You’re So Vain,” in which the subject takes his Lear Jet to Nova Scotia to see a total eclipse of the sun.
As I said the other day, Tyler doesn’t get much out of this development since performers aren’t paid royalties on radio play. She’ll get a little from sales. But writer Jim Steinman’s estate will clean up.
Here’s what it looked like through my Samsung S21:
