Thousands of Bonnie Tyler fans gathered in her Welsh village of Mumbles today, applauding as her coffin passed ahead of Monday's funeral. The singer died in July at age 75. Mourners sang her hit "Total Eclipse of the Heart" and threw flowers as the flag-draped coffin appeared. Tyler died July 8 in Portugal after intestinal surgery in May left her in an induced coma. The 1983 ballad remains her most famous song, reaching 1.2 billion Spotify streams. Her funeral will be held Monday at Swansea Cathedral, followed by a private ceremony.
