Beautiful relaxing song! There are plenty of covers out there. It helped me to practice the left hand movements in the piano track recording.
It also has some chorus and many vocal arrangements that I tried to emulate using voice synthetizers on the CASIO WK 3800. Later on I added reverb effects.

"Total Eclipse of the Heart" is a song written and produced by Jim Steinman and recorded by Welsh singer Bonnie Tyler for her fifth studio album Faster Than the Speed of Night. Released as a single in 1983, it was the first release from the album and became Tyler's biggest hit.
My girlfriend loves this one a lot, so I decided to lern it and play it to her. I liked to use its original key (I believe Bbm). Downloaded the chords and practiced very much since I have no formal music education.
There are some errors in the middle of the cover, but I was too lazy to correct them at that time. Sorry :) My "live" version is better I guess.
The chords I used:

Turnaround bright eyes
Turnaround, Every now and then I know you'll never be the boy
you always wanted to be
Turnaround, But every now and then I know you'll always be
the only boy who wanted me the way that I am
Turnaround, Every now and then I know there's no-one in the universe
as magical and wondrous as you
Turnaround, Every now and then I know there's nothing any better,
there's nothing I just wouldn't do
Turnaround bright eyes, every now and then I fall apart
Turnaround bright eyes, every now and then I fall apart
And I need you now tonight
And I need you more than ever
And if you'll only hold me tight
We'll be holding on forever
And we'll only be making it right
Cause we'll never be wrong
Together we can take it to the end of the line
Your love is like a shadow on me all of the time
I don't know what to do and I'm always in the dark
We're living in a powder keg and giving off sparks
I really need you tonight
Forever's gonna start tonight
Forever's gonna start tonight
Once upon a time I was falling in love
But now I'm only falling apart
There's nothing I can do
A total eclipse of the heart
Once upon a time there was light in my life
Now there's only love in the dark
Nothing I can say
A total eclipse of the heart
