"Secret Dreams and Forbidden Fire" is Bonnie Tyler's 1986 follow up to 1983's successful "Faster Than the Speed of Night". Like its predecessor, it is produced by Jim Steinman and it features four of his songs. Among them are "Ravishing," the duet "Loving You's a Dirty Job (But Somebody's Gotta Do It)" (with Todd Rundgren) and the hit "Holding Out for a Hero", which was previously included on the soundtrack of the movie "Footloose". "Secret Dreams and Forbidden Fire" is the sixth album by Bonnie Tyler.
