Bonnie Tyler, the beloved singer renowned for her raspy voice, has died at 75<\/a> following recent health complications.<\/p>\n

Tyler gave us several memorable songs over the course of her nearly 50-year career, including her signature hit, “Total Eclipse of the Heart.” Written and produced by legendary songwriter Jim Steinman, who also collaborated with Meat Loaf and Air Supply, the track was released in 1983 and became a massive hit, topping the Billboard Hot 100 for four weeks and earning Tyler a Grammy nomination for Best Female Pop Vocal Performance.<\/p>\n

“Total Eclipse of the Heart” has become a multigenerational pop culture mainstay, its reach extending from a classic episode of <\/a>Glee<\/em><\/a> to William Shatner’s memorable (?) duet with “Taiwan’s Susan Boyle”<\/a> on the talent competition series Super Star Avenue<\/em>.<\/p>\n

The song has also enjoyed a long life on the big screen, where it’s been incorporated into comedies, dramas, and even horror movies in ways both subversive and earnest. Below, we’re revisiting five memorable movie scenes elevated by Tyler’s greatest hit.<\/p>\n
