This literal version of BonnieTyler's infamous 'Total Eclipse of the Heart' is immensely entertaining du to its witty lyrics, in which the audience are able to relate to and understand. It challenges the original video as it questions its relevance to the song. By describing exactly what happens within each scene the audience find this amusing as we can see the lyrics being reinforced. Often the lyrics predict what is about to happen which is also funny for an audience member as we anticipate what is due to happen and find it entertaining when it happens. There are also massive elements of intertextuality throughout the video, including Ringo Starr, Arthur Fonzarelli, Macarena, Rocky, Eva Peron, Glee Club, Hogwarts and Lord of the Flies.
