Totally rad
The Big Moon share epic cover of ‘Total Eclipse Of The Heart’
What a bunch of legends

It was only so long before the Moons had an eclipse, and oh what a heavenly event it truly is.
Having first dished up their absolutely epic cover of Bonnie Tyler’s already absolutely epic anthem ‘Total Eclipse Of The Heart’ at this year’s Reading & Leeds festival, everyone’s faves The Big Moon have only gone and put it to tape.
Playing a live session for The A.V Club, the quartet ripped through the track, adding in a little snippet of Pixies’ ‘Where Is My Mind’ for good measure and changing “we’re living in a powder keg and giving off sparks” to “we’re cooking up pancakes and giving out forks” because… well, who really needs an explanation?
If you needed one more reason to love The Big Moon then go scoff yourself silly on this one.
