Truly Bizarre Bonnie Tyler Cover

That '80s song, "Total Eclipse of the Heart," by Bonnie Tyler is certainly an odd duck. All that overwrought drama, crashing drums, overproduced orchestration is a wonder to behold. Who could top that?
Hurra Torpedo, "The world's greatest kitchen appliance band."

Seriously.

The band bills itself as "the world's leading kitchen appliance rock group," and I surely can't argue with that.

I especially like the band member who's pants are falling off smashing a kitchen range with a what looks like a sledgehammer. This is a gem:
