She is reportedly worth £8million thanks to her catchy 80s' pop singles. But Bonnie Tyler has hit out at today's lack of royalties for artists due to streaming platforms and said: 'I'll be lucky if I get 10 pence.' Her most famous track, Total Eclipse of the Heart, reached one billion streams on YouTube in September and briefly returned to number one last month during the solar eclipse in North America. Ms Tyler said: 'But you get pennies for streaming, it's just not fair. It's not actually records the fans are buying. 'I was selling 50,000 a day when the records sold but now fans are streaming everything and I'll be lucky if I get 10 pence.'

Six security guards, each with a dog, guarded the Victorian-built, former infirmary where we shot the video for Total Eclipse Of The Heart. You couldn't imagine a scarier place. It is said that dogs have a sixth sense and those six animals wouldn't go anywhere near the morgue or the room where doctors used to administer electric shocks to patients. This rambling building near Virginia Water in Surrey was called Holloway Sanatorium. It was a former hospital for the mentally-ill and its vast echoing emptiness struck terror into all of us. But it did suit the mood of the song - and the extravagant imagination of the great Jim Steinman, dubbed the Lord of Excess, who directed the video and wrote Total Eclipse Of The Heart.

CHRIS FOY IN LYON: They played Total Eclipse of the Heart by Bonnie Tyler in the stadium moments after the massacre was over, and one line stuck out: 'Every now and then I fall apart.' It was as if the Welsh singer were summing up Australia's capitulation. It was a complete loss. Wales was the first team to qualify for the World Cup quarterfinals, and they were left with Eddie Jones and his broken Wallabies perched on the edge of an abyss. They were utter rabble and their followers had given up on them by the time, leaving the stands in droves long before the final whistle. Warren Gatland's resurgent squad is winning this tournament, while routed rivals are almost certain to return home shortly, despite bitter revenge after a humiliating second loss of this season. Wales is now three from three, and they will face Georgia in Nantes on October 7 for a prime chance to finish in Pool C.
