What a wonderful cover version. I met Bonnie Tyler in 1996 whilst working as a pianist in Swansea and I was chatting with her and Ronnie Scott who wrote 'Its a heartache- and Lost in France etc.Ronnie asked me who my influences were and I told him that I admired Tori Amos immensely and Bonnie Tyler agreed that Tori is an extremely talented artist. Just thought I would share this with you ! Love to all of you, Lee x
Tori Amos is mega talented 😍😊, but you man were lucky 🍀 to chat with Bonnie 👍She was wonderful performer on stage whed doing her songs - especially this one 🙂
+cornflkeboy1 That is EXACTLY what I was going to comment ! Have you seen the live cover of Oasis's Don't Look Back In Anger? It is hilarious !! I am thinking of starting a group on facebook that is just Tori's covers ! :)
I started listening to Tori in 1989 with Y Kant Tori Read. Love all her stuff. I have come and gone with her music, but she continues to be a constant in my life. This is exquisitely her, as a cover.
please, for all of you disparaging her pronunciation .... you don't get it. it hardly matters what words she is saying. the emotion she captures is what this is all about. if that doesn't hit you then you're not going to get it. go listen to something else. have you never had a broken heart? have you not despaired? have you never held a blade to your wrist? has your heart not ached for your mate? tori conveys these moments of desperation that many people have felt & she does it so effortlessly, it's amazing.
Deepest thanks to you, thanx01 for defining what Tori unfailingly always does so very well - that is, capturing the soul of everything she sings. This cover is heartbreaking, candid and very real. I am beyond delighted that you understand this, and the trolls can do their worst, but nothing will ever take away from the stunning beauty of this cover. I can never EVER express how v much I adore Tori!!
Yes, but for some reason it didn't make me say "Brooeet ass" or "fall apoohooit" or "once upon a dime" or "toodle eclipse of ahoor." Not once. No amount of despair or melodrama can make what you typed logical. Something can be emotional, and still make sense. They are not mutually exclusive. There is not some magical property of your grief or worship that changes an objective mistake into an objective triumph. It is therefore your rose-colored glasses, and not our inability to "get it" at play here. That's not to say you are "wrong," so much as to point out your grief is not griefier than anybody else's. It's a flawed argument, and it has no relevance to their claim.
Boys for pele changed my life, tori changed my taste in music...I just love her, she is the SINGER in my life. (I do prefer her own song, but this is quite nice)
If you listen her vocal is the harmony to the original if you sing the original notes. Love the magical piano nobody can do like her and her ethereal beauty goddess manifested.
Ditto!! Totally WOW! 6:50 original length intended by the writer of this song sung amazingly by Tori. Fantastic cover of Bonnie Tyler's version. This artist has a big voice and ever ready lungs that can supply oxygen to an entire City of Angels. Tori Amos...sing!!! Love it!!! Thank you!!!
lemme tell ya, as a guy..if Tori or Bonnie ever sang this soulful,passionate song to me..i'd be like putty in their hands.We want to find beauty in our lives and here it is
pure genius.... I used to think only Tori brings to life a song.... but there are a few other artists out there capable of such wonderful performances, like Bonnie Tyler who gave life to this work of art... and the way Tori takes entities like "Total eclipse of the heart" and nurtures them, and gives 'em a taste of her overwhelming, never-ending passion, what more could you ask for?... I respect and apreciate, feel and understand these full of genius sweet creatures with every fiber of my being!
That song was my special love song when growing up. I still deeply love it, but you just lifted it up with so much emotions... your voice is incredible and you are a gifted musician.
+MrCarter'sRods they are all around you,i am not in any religion.how sad you don't believe in love,love is an angel,Tori is an angel.you my friend are an angel.u don't need to wish,just believe in life and love.simple,it seems.
I love the original version but there's just so much more emotion in this version......I'm getting goosebumps as I listen to it right now. Hands down one of her best!!!
MADRE SANTA!!!!! Quiero morir en este momento.... QUE INTERPRETACION TAN FABULOSA!!!!!!!! TORI AMOS ES LA MEJOR!!!!!! Pocas veces un cover supera a la version original... INCREIBLE
she killed it alright silky smooth vocal on point with passion and feeling you could listen to he piano work in the background and have a totally unique experience just focusing on that and letting the vocal be the background or vice versa some people are so programmed to have a song sound the same as it always has they miss the pure mastery of a MASTER ARTIST.
Ooh I love Tori's "Landslide"- she really is the best at covering other artists' stuff. She communicates them so well! I never thought I'd like a Tori Amos cover of "Purple Rain", for example, but it's been one of my faves for ages!!
What I find is that she always finds a way to make a song her own, instead of doing what many other performers do and rip it straight off. You don't have to like the way she does it, but you can't deny at least she puts her own mark on them.
I like a few of Tori's songs but must admit im not a great fan of all her stuff, but there is no question she is a very talented musician/songwriter and has a great ability to cover songs in her own style that make them sound her own.
Covering another person's song, especially one that has been a mega hit, right? is really an homage. No bigger compliment. Bonnie's song spoke to Tori ... how neat is that??
This cover actually makes me like the song even more and i find it could be used i n a movie drama or action film? i find it a more serious feellig to it Tori is amazing .
I love artists who can take a song and make it completely their own; showcasing the lyrics to perfection and outclassing the original by miles. Like Marilyn Manson with Sweet Dreams...and like this. This is absolutely superb and I am completely and utterly in love with Tori and her honesty and purity. Goosebumps.
I'm quite surprised so many people don't like this - I think its a wonderful and very Tori interpretation of the Bonnie Tyler classic which I also like a lot...BT's best I think.
I’m 90% certain I passed this woman by the river in Inverness, Scotland earlier this year. I’ve always loved this rendition and wish I’d had the courage to say hello.
Tori did a cover of total eclipse of the heart that blows my mind. I never cared for the original but tori's version is amazing. and at about 3:40 she does this key change that just gives an amazing depth to the song like never before.
This song originally came out when i was in middle school and i had such a love/hate relationship with it :) But absolute love with Tori's cover! This is just gorgeous, it is on "repeat" on my player often! Just yummy.
What a wonderful cover version. I met Bonnie Tyler in 1996 whilst working as a pianist in Swansea and I was chatting with her and Ronnie Scott who wrote 'Its a heartache- and Lost in France etc.Ronnie asked me who my influences were and I told him that I admired Tori Amos immensely and Bonnie Tyler agreed that Tori is an extremely talented artist.

Ой, не пизди...
Tori is as close to an angel that we will ever see with our human eyes. Thank you Tori you are amazing.
Doc Holliday agreed! But second in line to the one and only Dolly Parton!
Dammit! Every time I think I'm over Tori, I hear something and fall in love all over again! :'(
Me too
I will never be over my Queen..
@losebrett: You got the point. 👍
Tori is the complete package. Beauty, Brains and Talent. I've seen her live twice. One of my Fav soloists
Every now and then I need a little more Tori
Tori does the best covers ever.
+cornflkeboy1 yes
+cornflkeboy1 That is EXACTLY what I was going to comment ! Have you seen the live cover of Oasis's Don't Look Back In Anger? It is hilarious !! I am thinking of starting a group on facebook that is just Tori's covers ! :)
in my opinion this isnt true.maybe cover is beatiful but "losing my religion" wonderful.
Yes.
Laura Mary Gee says me ?
She's such a gift to some of us.. who get her.. even if u dont like her... ya gotta step back and say damn, the talent!! I love her
I started listening to Tori in 1989 with Y Kant Tori Read. Love all her stuff. I have come and gone with her music, but she continues to be a constant in my life. This is exquisitely her, as a cover.

If they don't get it, sucks for them, doesn't take away what is there.
Yes, but for some reason it didn't make me say "Brooeet ass" or "fall apoohooit" or "once upon a dime" or "toodle eclipse of ahoor." Not once.

K thanks for jamming so much non-sequitur in your reply. Maybe you could comment on things that you like so you don't come off as such a downer.
Brundlefly ok
Tori has re-worked a classic as only she can. A cover like this does not take anything away from the original, it only adds to it.
That's my Queen. That light has kept me alive. Adrianne Meeks
I saw her in Maine. Very small venue. Very exotic and special night.
This song gives me chills...Tori is an amazing musician and when she sings ballads it's truly magical
Once again, proof of just how awesome Tori really is.
She has made this song this beautiful song even more beautiful! 💞🌹
Every cover she does she gives it that extra feeling in it
Love her! She's the only one who can play so many different styles of music on the piano and have the perfect voice to match!
God I love her!!!
Boys for pele changed my life, tori changed my taste in music...I just love her, she is the SINGER in my life.
(I do prefer her own song, but this is quite nice)
Goose bumps all over my body, totally had me in spirit land.
If you listen her vocal is the harmony to the original if you sing the original notes. Love the magical piano nobody can do like her and her ethereal beauty goddess manifested.
she's an angel ....i loved her since i first listened to her voice
I always had a soft spot for "Total Eclipse of the Heart," but this is just lovely. I think Tori's version might just be better than the original.
i would pay to see a concert of her just doing covers, she could tour doing just covers
SAME
But then you would miss out on some absolutely stellar work that she can call all her own!! I would never turn down any concert of hers tbh!
LITERALLY ME TOO OMG
But her songs RIP my heart out
Didn’t she do an album of all covers?
piano & tori's unique voice & beauty & an amazing song... flawless!
Ditto!! Totally WOW! 6:50 original length intended by the writer of this song sung amazingly by Tori. Fantastic cover of Bonnie Tyler's version. This artist has a big voice and ever ready lungs that can supply oxygen to an entire City of Angels. Tori Amos...sing!!! Love it!!! Thank you!!!
When I die, I hope my mind lets me here Tori singing this as I go into that last sleep.
Wow.. Hauntingly beautiful words
you still alive?
ssssst, close your eyes and listen to this song,
this is so beautiful
Many thanks Tori that we all can listen to this
Love you for ever
Tori Amos is here as a musician to bring healing to us poor lost souls, there are many of us.
She gives Bonnie Tyler a real run for her money here. Brilliant.
lemme tell ya, as a guy..if Tori or Bonnie ever sang this soulful,passionate song to me..i'd be like putty in their hands.We want to find beauty in our lives and here it is
awesome song before tori remade it,now its totally awesome!
Tori Amos.. always amazing!
pure genius....

I respect and apreciate, feel and understand these full of genius sweet creatures with every fiber of my being!
I love both versions. I love you Tori
Ascoltare questa canzone cantata da lei non può che procurarmi un enorme brivido .. the best voice of our century, thank you Tori!
That song was my special love song when growing up. I still deeply love it, but you just lifted it up with so much emotions... your voice is incredible and you are a gifted musician.
Oh wow i never knew Tori covered this song ...I really like it :)
Wow..... Just wow....
Her voice makes me wish angels were real.
+MrCarter'sRods angels ARE real :) :) :)
Sara Sophia Eisenman Which versions of angels?
+MrCarter'sRods the kind that are on the other side of the veil and commit wonderful acts of love and look after people from the beyond. :)
+MrCarter'sRods For a moment, I believed they were real..
+MrCarter'sRods they are all around you,i am not in any religion.how sad you don't believe in love,love is an angel,Tori is an angel.you my friend are an angel.u don't need to wish,just believe in life and love.simple,it seems.
Beatiful version of a complete classic song. It has its own personality-
I love the original version but there's just so much more emotion in this version......I'm getting goosebumps as I listen to it right now. Hands down one of her best!!!
she's a great singer and songwriter ever...
The music so unique ...and so her voice...
Love ya !
MADRE SANTA!!!!! Quiero morir en este momento.... QUE INTERPRETACION TAN FABULOSA!!!!!!!!
TORI AMOS ES LA MEJOR!!!!!!
Pocas veces un cover supera a la version original... INCREIBLE
she killed it alright silky smooth vocal on point with passion and feeling you could listen to he piano work in the background and have a totally unique experience just focusing on that and letting the vocal be the background or vice versa some people are so programmed to have a song sound the same as it always has they miss the pure mastery of a MASTER ARTIST.
Damn I like that song. Beautiful voice
She is the best with this style, I love it.
love tori amos covers
I like her voice. I loved the cover she made of "Enjoy the silence" by Depeche Mode.
Mind blowing! She's even better live!!!
SPECTACULAR!!!!!!!
She has breathed new life into this song.
What a beautiful cover. I'll always have a special place in my heart for Tori Amos. Just beautiful.
Ooh I love Tori's "Landslide"- she really is the best at covering other artists' stuff. She communicates them so well! I never thought I'd like a Tori Amos cover of "Purple Rain", for example, but it's been one of my faves for ages!!
She's played it live, you can find it online!
Thank you for still existing...your music rules🎉❤
What I find is that she always finds a way to make a song her own, instead of doing what many other performers do and rip it straight off. You don't have to like the way she does it, but you can't deny at least she puts her own mark on them.
i love her voice very much..

Always has been one of my favorite songs from the 80's...and as a huge T.A. fan since Little Earthquakes...thank you! brilliant & touching...
INCREDIBLE!!!
This gal is magnificent; delivery from her heart for sure. I was led here in need of some spiritual uplifting. :-)))
Covering another person's song, especially one that has been a mega hit, right? is really an homage. No bigger compliment. Bonnie's song spoke to Tori ... how neat is that??
absolutely amazing
Beautiful.
i love this song!!!!!
This cover actually makes me like the song even more and i find it could be used i
n a movie drama or action film? i find it a more serious feellig to it Tori is amazing .
I love tori and this is such a great song
i never knew she did this cover, this is great
she´s so amazing!
How Beautiful....
I love tori Amos! great picture show.
Wow...
If this song didn't mark a piece of your youth, you'll just never get it...
i don't think it beat the original but is very good. She's a godess!
This is the best cover i have heard in my life .
Realy like the dynamics and timing, like this version
I love artists who can take a song and make it completely their own; showcasing the lyrics to perfection and outclassing the original by miles. Like Marilyn Manson with Sweet Dreams...and like this. This is absolutely superb and I am completely and utterly in love with Tori and her honesty and purity. Goosebumps.
You are a real inspiration to me Tori Amos, Thank you
Beautifully done!
tori's power is heard through the way she plays piano
Epic interpretation of a cover, truly Tori in full glory!
Beautiful!
I love how she added her own lyrics :)
I'm quite surprised so many people don't like this - I think its a wonderful and very Tori interpretation of the Bonnie Tyler classic which I also like a lot...BT's best I think.
Ottima interpretazione.... rimane sempre e comunque una delle migliori cantanti in circolazione....
Волшебный голосочек ,спасибо тебе за шикарное исполнение с такими глубокими чувствами❤❤❤
I’m 90% certain I passed this woman by the river in Inverness, Scotland earlier this year. I’ve always loved this rendition and wish I’d had the courage to say hello.
I love you Tori. FOREVER!
Amazing performance... Amazing voice... Amazing personality...
Love Love Love this cover. I've heard her sing it live before and it's incredible.
