The World Starts Tonight is the debut studio album by Welsh singer Bonnie Tyler, released in February 1977 by RCA Records. Most of the songs were written by Ronnie Scott and Steve Wolfe, who worked as her managers while she was signed to RCA. They also produced the album alongside David Mackay. Musically, the album features country and pop songs.

Two singles were released from the album. The first, `Lost in France`, was certified silver by the BPI for sales of over 250,000 copies. `More Than a Lover` was also a hit, but failed to make progress in the UK Singles Chart after the BBC banned the song for its controversial lyrical content. Shortly after recording the album, Tyler had surgery to remove nodules from her vocal cords. The operation left Tyler with a permanently raspy voice.

The World Starts Tonight was received positively by contemporary critics, who praised Tyler for releasing a `promising debut`. The album was hugely popular in Sweden, where it reached number two. Despite this, it failed to chart in any other country.

Background
Bonnie Tyler (then known as Gaynor Hopkins) spent seven years performing in local pubs and clubs around South Wales between 1969 and 1976, first as part of Bobbie Wayne & the Dixies, and then with her own band Imagination.[2] In 1975, she was discovered singing with Imagination by talent scout Roger Bell.[3] She was invited to London to record two demos; `My! My! Honeycomb` and `Lost in France`. After months passed, RCA Records contacted Tyler announcing that they would be releasing `My! My! Honeycomb` as a single in April 1976.[1]

Recording
Tyler recorded The World Starts Tonight in Morgan Studios and Roundhouse Recording Studios in London between 1975 and 1976.[1] The session began with recording four demos; `My! My! Honeycomb`, with its B-Side `Got So Used to Loving You`, and `Lost in France`, with its B-Side `Baby I Remember You`. Ronnie Scott and Steve Wolfe wrote most of the songs from the album, and produced it with David Mackay.

All tracks are written by Ronnie Scott and Steve Wolfe, except where noted
