Welsh singer Bonnie Tyler had a special guest on stage at The Palm`s in Melbourne last night, her husband of 35-years Robert Sullivan.
Robert wasn’t out there to sing. Bonnie brought him on stage to introduce him to the Melbourne audience.Robert is a cousin of the father of Catherine Zeta-Jones. The link meant Bonnie had to work instead of party at the Zeta-Jones/Michael Douglas wedding. Catherine asked her to perform her hit ‘Total Eclipse Of The Heart’ at the wedding.
Bonnie Tyler is back in Australia “by invitation” for the first time in just two years.
This is a lady who loves putting on a show and has fun doing it.
The show featured her most famous songs including ‘Eclipse’. ‘Lost In France’ was early in the set as was ‘It’s A Heartache’. It was the second time in less than a week ‘It’s A Heartache’ was sung on the same stage. Tex Perkins did it with his Ladyboyz at The Palms on Sunday night.
Her covers for the night included CCR’s ‘Have You Ever Seen The Rain’, Bee Gees ‘To Love Somebody’, and Bryan Adams ‘Straight From The Heart’.
The final moment was kept for her Hollywood moment. ‘Holding Back For A Hero’ was one of the key songs in Footloose. It was an appropriate way to end the show.
Remaining Bonnie Tyler shows on the tour are:
October 31, Gold Coast, Twin Towns
November 1, Sydney, Campbelltown Cube
