IT'S ECLIPSE EVE!!! Jim Steinman (writer and producer of Total Eclipse of the Heart) said the track was actually originally about vampires in love: "with 'Total Eclipse of the Heart', I was trying to come up with a love song and I remembered I actually wrote that to be a vampire love song. Its original title was 'Vampires in Love' because I was working on a musical of Nosferatu, the other great vampire story. If anyone listens to the lyrics, they're really like vampire lines. It's all about the darkness, the power of darkness and love's place in the dark..."

As heard on the Footloose soundtrack. Dance little hero!

Steinman said in an interview with Playbill, about the inclusion of the song in his 1997 musical Dance of the Vampires: with 'Total Eclipse of the Heart', I was trying to come up with a love song and I remembered I actually wrote that to be a vampire love song. Its original title was 'Vampires in Love' because I was working on a musical of Nosferatu, the other great vampire story. If anyone listens to the lyrics, they're really like vampire lines. It's all about the darkness, the power of darkness and love's place in the dark..
