Bonnie Tyler's Total Eclipse of the Heart is one of the biggest power ballads ever recorded... but when you actually listen to the lyrics, things get very strange.

This week we discuss listening to the sound of your own tears, living inside a powder keg, whether the song is secretly about a baby, why there are actual cannon blasts in the recording, and whether Bevo could survive a fight against 1983 Bonnie Tyler.

Along the way, we accidentally end up talking about Rory Dodd, TikTok crying channels, giant babies, and one of the greatest backing vocal performances ever recorded.
