"C'est un chagrin. Rien qu'un chagrin d'amour" C'est le soupir de Bonnie Tyler dans cette chanson. Elle doit sa voix rocailleuse unique aux suites d'une opération des cordes vocales en 1977 : en effet, elle aurait recommencé à parler trop tôt pendant la période de cicatrisation, c'est pourquoi elle fut surnommée la Rod Stewart féminine lui permettant de chanter dans divers genres musicaux (rock, pop, country, slow...), l'une des plus belles voix du Royaume-Uni.
Bonnie a vendu 50 millions de singles et d'albums à travers le monde notamment avec les populaires titres comme It's A Heartache et Total Eclipse Of The Heart vendus chacun à plusieurs millions d'exemplaires.

It's a heartache
Nothing but a heartache
Hits you when it's too late
Hits you when you're down
It's a fool's game
Nothing but a fool's game
Standing in the cold rain
Feeling like a clown
It's a heartache
Nothing but a heartache
Love him 'til your arms break
Then he let's you down
It ain't right with love to share
When you find he doesn't care for you
It ain't wise to need someone
As much as I depended on you
Oh, it's a heartache
Nothing but a heartache
Hits you when it's too late
Hits you when you're down
It's a fool's game
Nothing but a fool's game
Standing in the cold rain
Feeling like a clown
It ain't right with love to share
When you find he doesn't care for you
It ain't wise to need someone
As much as I depended on you
Oh, it's a heartache
Nothing but a heartache
You love him 'til your arms break
Then he let's you down
It's a fool's game
Standing in the cold rain
Feelin' like a clown
It's a heartache
Love him 'til your arms break
Then he let's you down
It's a fool's game
