And now, as a public service, SOWNY presents some of the bumper music you’re bound to hear on Monday, as stations in Ontario cover the much hyped solar eclipse. You’re welcome.
 
Of course, Bonnie Tyler’s “Total Eclipse of the Heart” is certain to be heard sometime over the next 24 hours, and likely more than once. But here are more tunes that are sure to be played as intros as the endless eclipse coverage continues over the next few hours.
 
I’m a bit of an oldies fan, so if anyone has a few more modern contemporary examples, feel free to add them in. Radio producers need all the help they can get!
