Thousands of fans filled the streets of Mumbles, Wales, this Saturday to say goodbye to singer Bonnie Tyler, who died on July 8 at the age of 75. The artist's followers followed the coffin, covered with a Welsh flag and accompanied by a photograph of Tyler, through the town's streets singing one of his best-known hits, which is Total eclipse of the heart, a trending song after the historic eclipse from a few days ago. The singer's final farewell will be held this Monday at the church of Santa Maria, in Swansea. The city was the artist's temporary residence, who died in Faro (Portugal) due to complications arising from an intestinal perforation.

The powerful voice of Bonnie Tyler, who poured her heart out in Total eclipse of the heart, and the cracked voice that surrendered to heartbreak in It's a heartache, has finally fallen silent. As confirmed by the BBC, the Welsh singer has died at the age of 75 in Portugal, in Faro, where she had settled to live during the seasons she was not performing. Her discography leaves behind a handful of immortal hits, a vocal surgery, an unexpected revival, and a steadfast dedication that has kept her on stage for practically half a century uninterrupted. "I'm never going to retire. What do you want me to do? Stop and die? I love performing too much," she stated in a television interview in the summer of 2024. Tyler continued to tour, filling halls mainly in Germany, France, and Central European countries, much more so than in her native United Kingdom.
