  • immensely awesome.

  • So this is where Lady Gaga got inspired for her Alejandro video....

  • I love the Ben Stiller cameo at the end. His ears used to be smaller, and his eyes much glow-ier.

  • I remember when this came out! Back when MTV (MUSIC television) played MUSIC VIDEOS instead of all the reality GARBAGE they play today! MODERN MTV SUXX Thumbs UP if u agree!

  • this lady is an was 1 of the sexiest, heart felt singers of my adult life still love her stuff after all these years

  • weirdest video, great song!

  • i cant do nothing my heart is eclipsed, babydoll

  • As much as I am thankful for our troops, I will never again date a guy in the miltary.  : *(

  • @curlybonita destiny is something you cant run from. you did because it was meant to be peace unto you

  • Look up the Literal Video Version from Funny or Die. It is truly out loud funny.

  • I chose this song as a project in my senior drama class had to sing along with it wow great memories!! my teacher said I did great wow good times

  • the 80s had epic music and epic music videos. need to get that feel back in today's music.

  • I love how the video is dark and edgy,that what gives the video it's original-ness.It's an epic video

  • Magical foot kicking the door!! 0:50

  • aaaaaa the 80s the time of high buget music videos with wonderful special effects

  • Dark world, chaos... figure it out...

  • kitty ..if our hearts would have eclipsed, we'd be half way to marriage..that was my plan, it didnt work out but i'll never stop loving, wanting , craving u and i will NEVER give up...that would be like giving up on life..i love u..x0x0x..and always willlll....

  • 1995 please tell me what this means im so confused

  • I love the song but everytime I watch the video it reminds me of the literal version. LOL

  • @ketio lol same here!!! :p

  • such a good song....such a terrible video lol

  • i love this song, but this video is creepy lolz

  • This video always cracks my jacks..I mean, it's a good video, and the song's awesome..but they're just random ninjas and then there's the glowing kid that just gets up and flies over..it's just perfect in every way.

  • Always loved this video. I believe it tells a basic story, but so much is left open to interpretation. That college(?) is like some sort of long, dark, tea-time of the soul, existing in no particular time or place, but in a feeling, found only in the moonlit dreams and memories of what once was, or might have been. Cascading in an avalanche of the triumph and regret that we all feel... every now and then.

  • not as good as the version in the movie " Old School" but you have to like it

  • this was my prom song in 1995 !!! i agree songs before had meaning and they meant something.. songs today suck thye are all about sex and violence..and if i hear one more pittbull remake im going to scream!!!!!!

  • i do not understand ths video like hogwarts meet ninjas!? its lke some of the lady gaga videos & @3:46-3:4 the boys remind me of peter pan and the lost boys lol but i just watched this b/c it was on so you think you can dance

  • The first time I heard this song, I was watching the movie Urban Legend.

  • last time i checked, people didnt get famous by singing with a voice like that. glee version is x34567342553337865423689 better...

  • This song reminds me of my Sister !!!

  • After all these years, I still don't see the point of the Hogwarts School of Zombie boys in this video. The hell does that have to do with a broken hearted old broad?

  • @cocoapeach well it has to do with that she can't have them because shes an older women and there teacher

  • How is it that im 15 and like the 90's music more than the current music?

  • I can't watch this music video without thinking of the literal version. =X

  • does anybody actually understand this music video

  • @thetwistedsnail When music videos got big in the eighties, it was all about artistic expression. I could name more than a few videos I didn't understand. Anything by Devo comes to mind, lol

  • @thetwistedsnail It's about her feelings for a student that's much too young for her.

  • oh god. 

  • The only good music of today is foreign music. And not like Tio Cruz either.

  • good song

    makes you feel old hearing all these sons from when you grew up damnnnnnnnn.

  • LMAO Mohyman

  • classic, and my exact feelings at the moment!

  • great song but very weird video.

  • The Dan Band perfected this song.

  • This video is flipping SCARY!!! BUT the song is powerful her voice is AMAZING!!!

  • Freyja1133:

    Jealous would be a Blessing, because, you see, “EYE” think “EYE” have a problem with “OBSESSION!” However, “EYE” AM “NOT A WEIRDO” AND “EYE” do have it “Under Control.” Besides, if “EYE” have a door, which “EYE” do, “EYE” can simply pin HER to my WALL, which “EYE” do! LONG LIVE THE QUEEN OF ROCK AND ROLL, JOAN JETT! THUMB! PRETTY PALM! PRETTY SUN! FIVE! METALLIC SILVER MIRRORS!

    FROM INFINITY TO INFINITY; THUS, 8 8! "EYE" CAN EXPLAIN IT QUEEN JOAN JETT, FIVE! 5

  • I was born in this era, and yeah perhaps Glee tarniushed it, but nah its a great tune!'

  • I like how I just had a small misunderstanding with my girlfriend and this is the first song that plays on my playlist....

  • thumbs up if u agree 1995 and years before had way better songs than ours today

  • @Mohyman100 ya u know what sucks? I was born in 1995...........

  • @Mohyman100

    Then songs were from the heart and express the same...now it is all about money money money, no band just a beat machine and keyboard....so sad.

  • @Mohyman100 It's not that today's songs suck; there are plenty of new songs that are actually good. It's just that Whatever songs that are on the top hits suck. Which isn't that bad. That's how I decide whether or not to buy music. If it's not on the top hits, it must be good.

  • @Mohyman100 i couldn't agree more

    1993!

  • @Mohyman100 stop this madness...for the love of god. Just marvel in the fact that you support the awesomeness of this song or i'm going to take my thumb and slap your face with it over and over and over again.

  • love this song so much.

  • Love this song, always did but the video is super cheezy.

  • Every now and then I get a little bit nervous that the best of all my years have gone by. Every now and then I get a little bit terrified, I see the fucking look in your eyes.

  • What is up with this video?Guys with glowing eyes,dancing ninjas,and the creepy school,I mean this is ridiculous.

  • @iLuvDevonBoStiCK it was the 80's....cheesy video was the norm. That doesn't lesson the quality of the music or the talent Bonnie had.

  • @teresuetoo I'm not saying the song is horrible cause I love it <3,but the video just creeped me out and had me wondering for a moment...just saying

  • when is aw the end of this vid i laughed

  • The “EYE” see you through the door, is called a “PEEPHOLE” “FISH EYE” and “DOOR SPY.” “EYE” wonder if Queen Joan Jett will notice the Thumb NOW! Peek A BOO! “EYE” “SEE” “YOU” “EWE.” BOO! Joan is a Runaway to the local Hardware Store to by “ONE!” (LAUGHTER)! With a ONE DOLLAR BILL from the San Francisco Mint! Oh, “I AM” Rolling Thunder In Laughter! A PERFECT FIFTH! 5

  • @GODrules555 You're saying that because you're jealous

  • I heard this song today for the first time on the radio. I fell in love with it. I was born in the wrong decade.

  • @Letloose15 if you missed the 80's im so sorry

  • @Letloose15 Don't despair for being born later. This song is above average for the 80s. The crappy pop songs of the 80s were just as bad and forgettable as the crappy pop songs today. (This just happens to NOT be one of those songs).

  • @Letloose15 no youtube for you! lol

  • I dont know what to do...Im always in the dark!!

  • 2:58 JAMS out. <3

  • We used to have this anit-drug group come to our school and they did a dance to this song....every fucking year.

  • I think she is looking back at her youth in this video. Perhaps she is thinking about her high school sweetheart, and she never got over her first love.

  • What exactly...is going on...in this music video...? Is she like...a MILF...fantasizing over high school and college boys..? Because that's the vibe I'm getting...

  • FOREVER'S GONNA START TONIGHT.

  • i remember this video and many more ,just like it was yesterday.the 1980s were flooded with all kinds of good music. class of 1989 texas

  • laser eyes for the win.

  • Meat Loaf would own this.

  • i miss the days of big hair

  • Comment removed

  • waw..amazing <3

  • What is this? What does all that have to do with the song. Well done, but pointless.

  • This video is scary to watch at night with the lights off :/ i was freaked out!!

  • Randomist music video ever must have cost like 500 millon dollars to make

  • 714 people don't want to turn around

  • 5:16 rofl xD

  • Eclipse Of The Heart

    I just had a total eclipse of the heart

    And I need you more than ever

    Gas is 5.99... every now and then

    I fall apart... nothing i can do

    A total eclipse of the heart

    M.S. Morrison

  • Celiene DIONE should sing this!!!!!

  • So I guess this song was made for a musical called "Dances with Vampires" totally shocked me :O But the whole spooky theme of the video makes a little more sense.

  • @tucker1426100 Not quite, it was reused as the love theme in the musical.

  • I want to go to this school!

  • love it

  • OH YEAH THIS SONG..... I REMEMBER THIS SONG DAMN 713 people DON'T LIKE THIS SONG??? WTF??? GREAT VIDEO!!

  • 3:40 I get legitimately startled by that kid every time.

  • @Codyluis94 lol that kid is freaky!!

  • Joan, if the ANGEL “EYE,” is so “Evil,” and the ANGELS who support Homosexuality are so “Good,” why do they bargain for “EYE” to “Cross Over” for a Sixth Rank, and “EYE” say “F#@k YOU! BIRD AND FEATHER! “EYE” want a 15th RANK! And guess what, Queen Joan Jett? And Guess What? They say, ok, YES it is a Deal! WHY? WHY? WHY? QUEEN JOAN JETT OF ROCK AND ROLL, ARE THE ANGELS THAT ARE SO GOOD BARGAINING WITH THE DEVIL! FIVE! STOP! THINK! WHY! 5

  • is it just me or is this video totally weird

  • All I gotta say is that ----- I just saw football players in the video. wtf?

  • JOAN MARIE LARKIN JETT! "EYE" AM BEING HELD BACK FROM GETTING "EWE"! 5 being held back! Joan says, “It Is Mine”! Wow! Another No-Brainer! Butt , “EYE” 5 AM being held BACK! That is not Funny, JOAN! 5

  • THE JOKE OF ALL THE HUMAN BEING LIFETIMES! WHEN THEY JUST WANT THE “WAR TO END,” WHO DO THEY COME TO? POLITICIANS, RELIGIONS, CELEBRITIES? NO! THEY COME TO THE OUTCASTS! YES, THE OUTCASTS, WHO ARE SHUNNED BY THE PURITAN SOCIETIES AND NOW THE OUTCASTS ARE THE “IN CASTS” OF THE “IN CROWD,” BUT THE PURITAN SOCIETIES WITH JEALOUSY IN THEIR JEALOUS HEART, BELIEVE THEIR SCHEME IS UNSEEN! BUT “WOE” ARE FROM THEY EYES OF THE EXPERIENCED! 5

  • JOAN, QUEEN! YOU NEED TO COME UP WITH SOMETHING TO SHAKE AN ANGEL AS "EYE" 5 HAVE WITH YOU, AND THE HUMAN BEINGS, AND THE PLANET EARTH, AND THE GALAXY, AND THE UNIVERSE, AND THE UNIVERSES, AND ETC...ETC...ETC... FOCUS! SINNER, AND IT IS MINE, IS NO, "EYE" REPEAT "NO EDUCATION!" YOU MUST COME UP WITH SOMETHING, OR, “YOU GOT A PROBLEM!” 5

  • JOAN JETT, YOU ARE GOING TO HAVE TO COME UP WITH SOMETHING; “EYE” DO NOT CARE; SOMETHING OTHER THAN SINNER, AND ITS MINE!

  • QUEEN OF ROCK AND ROLL; QUEEN JOAN JETT; JOAN MARIE LARKIN JETT! YOU GOT A PROBLEM!!! “EYE” 5!

  • The song is so melodramatic and borderline camp, but yet the song is still catchy decades later & I know every word. Steinman-produced work so over the top. Love it!

  • @StageZineLovesKylie Jim Steinman never was one for subtlety, was he?

  • I thought this music more epic before I saw the video... xD

    o_O

  • Love the song but the video totally confused me..didn't go with the lyrics at all...still good though :(

  • I've heard this song many times but this is the first time I've seen the video, which starts out looking like an arty commercial for a fragrance, then escalates into a totally over-the-top smorgasbord of kitschy weirdness akin to the Rocky Horror Picture Show. I'm not sure what they were they thinking when they made this. Admittedly the song is operatic in tone, but the illuminated eyes, levitating choirboys, and Chippendale-like dancing men made me laugh, which probably was not the intent.

  • JOAN JETT; NOTICE THE THUMB! 555 TRAIN! 5

  • TRAIN!

  • The Trashmen-Surfin Bird... Joan Jett and The Blackhearts-You Got A Problem...Bonnie Tyler-Total Eclipse Of The Heart. AND JOAN JETT CANNOT SEE THE THUMB! 5

  • This is one of my favorite "non-Beatle" songs... ^_^ Great song by a great artist, what more is there to say?

  • LOVE NINJAS!

  • 80's videos were so wonderfully cheesy and chock full of meaningless symbolism. I sure miss my 80s innocence.

  • this makes me think of yugioh abridged

  • 1:13 SPIN AROUND (Instead of turn around)

  • I love this song

  • Holy Ninja kick to the Heavens at 3:52!! 

  • Is it just me or does her voice make you want to rip her clothes off like a Ninja?

  • So wait... this song is about an older woman who has the hots for her young male students? wtf

  • Epic video. This is when they spent serious $ to make music videos.

  • I say, whatever her message is in the concept of the video, it's either you get it or you don't. It's the 80s, ok folks? It was a different time zone then. People were still made to think. 

  • @asiaball I understand the metaphor of the mansion their built by the love, and how each room is like a precious memory that she once enjoyed living in and now runs through dwelling in pain. It's just the little boys obsession she has that's really weird. I'm not referring to the child with wings, or even the ones with glowing eyes, but the ones with the football gear, and how she stares off at the kids while shaking their hands, and the men in underwear. makes it seem more shallow =/

  • Like if you've sang this to girl before.

  • lol whats with the glowing eyes...kinda creepy, but the song is beautiful.

  • Good song, weird video...

  • It speaks to the real dimensions of love and passion which can be dark, sorrowful, tearstained, mystical,and gothic along side the cliched bright notes which ascend. If more of us could plumb more of the depths of such passion, a lot more relationships would be richer for it.

  • @jeff62rey that was a poetic and deep comment. agreed! made my day!

  • @ladylaurenia I am deeply moved by your affirmative comment. I'm bursting with a passion for such memories and I find myself deeply in the mirror of this kind of music particularly. I find that though 45 years of age in my body, yet upon entering this wonderful musical genre, I am once again alive and aglow with the rapturous heart of an 18 year old. Keep up the good musical taste and find the wonderful passions hidden between and within each line, each note..

  • Every-Fuckin' now and then I fall apart. And I fuckin need you now tonite. I fuckin need you more then ever

  • Her obsession with little boys and men in underwear in this song is a little unsettling. =/

    Great song, and while I love the dark feel to it, it's not as emotional as I expected such a heartfelt song to be. It's like she's trying to show off men with hot bods, and a bunch of children for some reason. I like the house's use as a metaphor, but really, the teens in football gear? Fantasizing and spacing out when a little boy shakes your hand? It's a shallow and creepy addition in my opinion.

  • Comment removed

  • My speakers don't go up high enough for this! D:

  • i think maybe she needs help...maybe shes singing to her doctor?

  • I like the song, but this video is scary.

  • was it meatloaf singing with her?

  • @213mrbrandon Yes

  • glee killed this song

  • @333shockey I never knew they sang this song... That being said, I would never be caught watching that show... If I was paid a penny for every episode of glee I saw in my life, I would be broke and penniless...

  • @333shockey Glee kills every song, but that's because covers usually butcher legends like this.

  • @333shockey they ruined this song for me. glee ruined most songs for me actually

  • @333shockey glee kills every song

  • Uh-oh, let the tears start falling!

  • I love this song, remember the video, but forgot it was a little creepy!!

  • Yep i can totally see Meatloafs touch in this video, no wonder they worked on this together

  • @devilsassassin87 Not Meatloaf... Jim Steinman. The man who wrote every awesome song Meatloaf ever sang.

  • mullet with headlights!!!

  • What the fuck am I watching. I'm seriously creeped out by all of it.

  • MY FAV SONG FROM THE OLD DAYS!!! hahaha my mom needs to live in the moment......its kinda funny when im singing this song during passing periods in Jr. high and all of the other big hits from back then!! >..<

  • @MrArpas123 I'm almost certain that Jesus would be able to spell.

  • OH JESUS THOSE CHILDRENS EYES

  • On September 26, 1983, the world almost ended in nuclear war because of a glitch in a Russian missile-tracking computer. If Colonel Stanislav Petrov had chosen to report that glitch as accurate instead of keeping calm and dismissing it, this song would have been the last chart-topper of modern history.

  • great one mean song guess you had to live it

  • not saying i dont like bonnie singing it ..but i like it when greg heffley sings it much better.

  • why do some music vids have absolutely nothing to do with the song/lyrics?

  • @bootyknocker2010 What do you mean ???

    Are you trying to say that ninjas, football players, zombie altar boys and gay looking gladiators have nothing to do with the lyrics ???

  • @eloy960 Those are not gladiators, they are the Lost Boys from Peter Pan

  • @bootyknocker2010 Go look up Total Eclipse of the Heart Literal Version. Trust me.

  • @DukeDarkshadow ok now I'm curious :)

  • AND I NEED YOU NOW TONIGHT, I FUCKING NEED YOU MORE THAN EVER!

  • beautiful song and singer

  • Everyone knows the best part about this song is that if no matter WHERE you are, if you start singing this song, people will join in, even if they only know the chorus. Without fail.

  • @ reignman - I think JK should pay Bonnie some royalties for the book idea, this video came out decades before JK Rowling wrote Harry Potter.

  • my gf says i'm 7% gay. she is wrong but i still love this song....

  • I cry when I hear this song. I turned around and I'm now in a perpetual Total Eclipse of the Heart.

  • Seeing that this was written by Jim Steinman, Bonnie did a very good job with it.

    Very good video, and thanks for posting, friend!

  • The video was already epic and then they had to add dancing ninjas and my head exploded.

  • @brucemclee hahaha The dancing diaper guys toward the end are just as awesome, right?

  • @brucemclee

    I'm glad you were able to piece your head back together. haha.

  • @brucemclee if they were ninjas you wouldn't have seen them...

  • is it just me or do the choir guys really freak you out? lol

  • Don't you hate it when your having you average dinner in the middle of a empty Hogwarts room, when suddenly a mouse crawls across the table and everyone starts flipping out?

  • I like the muaic but the video is blurry

  • One of my favorites.

  • Thumbs up for the Dan Band....

  • despite the video, its a excellent song

  • LOVE>

    

  • this is a great song to sing when the driver gets lost on a road trip :D

  • I've always loved her voice, that smoky rasp is sexy as hell. That said, I've never understood this freaking video since the first time I saw it on MTV. Someone went all artsy, and I think they had too much coke while shooting.

  • @nitemare111 You are so right!!!!!!! Awesome song but the most "freakiest" video!!!!!!!!! What is up with those glowing white eyes???????? LOL!!!!!
