Bonnie Tyler remembers loved ones in posthumous Christmas single

Bonnie Tyler sings of "love, light and peace" and remembers "the ones who still live on inside our hearts" on her posthumous Christmas single, which was released on Friday.

The popular Welsh powerhouse singer, born Gaynor Hopkins, died in July aged 75 after undergoing emergency intestinal surgery in Portugal earlier this year.

Fans were able to hear the Total Eclipse of the Heart singer's husky tones one more time on the festive track titled "Love, Light and Peace".

The last song Tyler recorded features sleigh bells and angels and an ad-libbed farewell: "To all, goodnight."

The lyrics about grief and loss take on new meaning following her death.

Tyler sings: "Blessed are the ones who still live on inside our hearts.

The song was written by Chrissie Hammond and Grammy-winner Terry Britten, who played guitar on Tyler's debut album, The World Starts Tonight in 1977.

Nearly 50 years later, he returned as a writer and producer for the last song she recorded.
