Bonnie Tyler (born Gaynor Hopkins; 8 June 1951) is a Welsh singer. Her first hit single, "Lost in France", reached the top ten on the UK Singles Chart in 1976 and she was nominated for Best British Female Newcomer at the 1977 Brit Awards. Soon after, Tyler underwent an operation to remove nodules from her vocal cords, which left her with a distinctively husky voice. However, this did not affect her career and her 1977 single "It's a Heartache" became a hit in both Europe and North America. At the peak of her success in the 1980s, Tyler worked with rock music songwriter Jim Steinman, gaining further international success with her number one hit "Total Eclipse of the Heart" in 1983, for which she was nominated for a Grammy Award for Best Female Pop Vocal Performance, with sales now exceeding 9 million. In the same year, she was also Grammy nominated for the song "Faster Than the Speed of Night", in the Best Female Rock Vocal Performance category. Steinman also wrote Tyler's last major British success, "Holding Out for a Hero", which was featured on the ''Footloose'' film soundtrack in 1984. Tyler received her third Grammy nomination in 1985 with the single "Here She Comes",
