Bonnie Tyler rocks the crowd in concert on Oasis of the Seas
Royal Caribbean's Oasis of the Seas was the only place on Earth to see Bonnie Tyler and multi-platinum-selling band DNCE perform a duet of Tyler's iconic 1980s power ballad, 'Total Eclipse of the Heart.'

As the moon made its way to cover the sun for today's 'great American eclipse,' DNCE took center stage in the ship's AquaTheater to play chart-topping hits including 'Kissing Strangers,' 'Body Moves' and 'Cake by the Ocean.' The concert culminated in the performance by DNCE and Tyler.

'As if moving our ship to sail along the eclipse's path of totality to give our guests 100 percent visibility of this phenomenon wasn't enough, we wanted to take it to another level—just above "out of this world,"' said Michael Bayley, president and ceo, Royal Caribbean International.

'We're excited to have DNCE and Bonnie on board,' Bayley added, 'and even more thrilled to have seen the looks on our guests' faces when she was brought on stage to sing "Total Eclipse of the Heart." This is what we live for—to make unforgettable memories.'
