Bonnie Tyler

Bonnie Tyler (born Gaynor Hopkins; 8 June 1951) is a Welsh singer. She is known for her distinctive husky voice, resulting from an operation to remove vocal nodules in the mid-1970s. Tyler came to prominence with the release of her 1977 album The World Starts Tonight and its singles "Lost in France" and "More Than a Lover". Her 1978 single "It's a Heartache" reached number four on the UK Singles Chart, and number three on the US Billboard Hot 100.

In the 1980s, Tyler ventured into rock music with songwriter and producer Jim Steinman. He wrote Tyler's biggest hit "Total Eclipse of the Heart'", the lead single from her 1983 UK chart topping album Faster Than the Speed of Night. Steinman also wrote Tyler's other major 1980s hit "Holding Out for a Hero". She had success in mainland Europe during the 1990s with German producer Dieter Bohlen, releasing three albums. In 2003, Tyler re-recorded "Total Eclipse of the Heart" with singer Kareen Antonn. Their bilingual duet topped the French charts.

    Human Touch

    Human Touch is the ninth studio album by Bruce Springsteen. The album was released on March 31, 1992. The album was co-released on the same day as Lucky Town. It was the more popular of the two, and it peaked at number two on the Billboard 200, with "Human Touch" (paired with Lucky Town's "Better Days") peaking at number one on the Album Rock Tracks chart and #16 on the Billboard Hot 100 chart.

    Background

    Not long after Springsteen broke up the E Street Band in October 1989, pianist Roy Bittan played Springsteen's three instrumental songs he had written, "Roll of the Dice", "Real World", and "Trouble in Paradise". Springsteen later added words to the songs, and liked them to the point where he began writing and recording more songs. With the E Street Band gone - except for Bittan, who played the keyboards and co-produced the album - Springsteen assembled a band of studio musicians in Los Angeles, mostly using the services of Randy Jackson on bass guitar and Jeff Porcaro on drums. A wide variety of background vocalists were used, including Sam Moore, Bobby Hatfield, and Bobby King. Overall, at least 25 or so songs were recorded, but the exact number is unknown.

    Get Happy!! (Elvis Costello album)

    The fourth album by Elvis Costello, his third with the Attractions, Get Happy!! is notable for being a dramatic break in tone from Costello's three previous albums, and for being heavily influenced by R&B, ska and soul music. The cover art was intentionally designed to have a "retro" feel, to look like the cover of an old LP with ring wear on both front and back.

    It was placed at No. 11 on Rolling Stone magazine's list of the 100 greatest albums of the 1980s.

    Background

    During the American concert tour for Armed Forces in April 1979, Costello engaged in a drunken argument with Stephen Stills and Bonnie Bramlett in a Columbus, Ohio, Holiday Inn hotel bar, during which he referred to James Brown as a "jive-arsed nigger," then upped the ante by pronouncing Ray Charles a "blind, ignorant nigger." Costello apologised at a New York City press conference a few days later, claiming that he had been drunk and had been attempting to be obnoxious to bring the conversation to a swift conclusion, not anticipating that Bramlett would bring his comments to the press.

    Gonna Get Better

    by: Bonnie Tyler

    (bonnie tyler/ paul hopkins)
    Producers for bonnie: steve lipson $ betsy cooke
    Recorded in 1981 as a b-side for the single 'sayonara tokyo', and was later used as the b-side for 'faster than the speed of night' in 1983. the two versions are actually quite different, but the same production credits are given for both. lyrics taken from careful listening.
    I'm sat here all alone
    Here in my one room home
    No one comes 'round no more
    No one knocks on my door
    Was high, then came the fall
    The tax man took it all
    I didn't play the rules
    I was a careless fool
    But it's gonna get better
    Feel it in my bones
    Just got to hold you 'cause I'm all alone
    I need your touch
    I need you here to stay
    This time I'll never let you get away
    They laughed at all my jokes
    Look around, where are those crazy folks?
    I think of real good times
    Those wasted partying nights
    Just bring your loving home
    Don't waste love on the phone
    I love you yes it's true
    Hell's what I've been going through
    There'll be more ups and downs
    Please make that turn around
    Not that we've played 'away'
    You're coming home to stay
    And it's gonna get better
    Feel it in my bones
    Just got to hold you 'cause I'm all alone
    I need your touch
    I need you here to stay
    Never ever gonna let you get away
    Feel it in my bones
    Feel it in my bones
