Bonnie Tyler has died 'unexpectedly' at the age of 75, weeks after going into cardiac arrest following surgery which left her in an induced coma.

The Welsh pop star, whose real name is Gaynor Hopkins, died just months after she was treated in intensive care after being placed in an induced coma following an emergency intestinal surgery.

Bonnie's death was announced in a statement by her 'heartbroken' family and team on her website on Thursday, which said she died in hospital in Portugal.

Another Victim of socialized medicine. Be careful what you wish for liberals

Once upon a time, I was falling in love
But now I’m only falling apart
There’s nothing I can do
A total eclipse of the heart
Once upon a time, there was light in my life
But now there’s only love in the dark
Nothing I can say
A total eclipse of the heart

Portugal is the new tax haven for celebrity Europeans.

Many European actors now live there when they are not working.

Brilliant point about socialized medicine, Paul. Maybe her hospital room didn’t have air-conditioning and she died from heat stroke.

"It's A Heartache" - 1977.

Wow - almost 50 years ago.

Anyone who remembers when that song came out is a lot closer to the End than to the Beginning!

Sad news, Bonnie had the most unique singing voice.

Sad. Her “I’ve got a Zevo” convinced me to buy one of those bug attractants and trap that really works.
