Best Of 3 CD is a compilation album by Welsh singer Bonnie Tyler, featuring three CDs that consist of tracks from Tyler's 2005 album Wings, selections from her live album Bonnie Tyler Live and other tracks from the 1980s. The album was released in September in France digitally before being released commercially in October.[2][3]
The compilation features three previously unreleased tracks; "Amour Éternel (Eternal Flame)", "Under One Sky" and a remixed version of "Si demain... (Turn Around)", with Kareen Antonn's vocals replaced by Fanny Llado, who is a backing singer for Tyler's albums, Simply Believe and Wings.
Track listing
Disc one contains 17 tracks, and disc two and three contain 18 tracks. Disc one opens with a newly recorded track, "Amour Éternel (Eternal Flame)", which was originally a hit for The Bangles in the 1980s. The track was adapted by Dominique Gorse, who edited the lyrics to include both French and English. The track is considered a repeat of Tyler's 2004 hit singles, "Si demain... (Turn Around)" and "Si Tout S'Arrete (It's A Heartache)" in France.
