Literal Videos: Bonnie Tyler, 'Total Eclipse of the Heart'

Firstly, this video is one of the best examples of a literal music video as it runs smoothly for the entire video and every single part of it works brilliantly. For example, the video starts with the new lyrics, 'Pan the room', 'Random use of candles, empty bottles, and cloth', which is taking everything that happens in the video literally. The use of intertexuality works well also, refering to people such as The Fonzies and Ringo Starr.
