"Save Up All Your Tears" is a song written by Desmond Child and Diane Warren, and originally released by Welsh singer Bonnie Tyler.
The original Bonnie Tyler version of the song was featured on the album called Notes From America in the United States, Canada and Brazil and entitled Hide Your Heart throughout the rest of the world.
The song was produced by its co-writer, Desmond Child, who was enjoying chart success in the US with singles by Bon Jovi including "Livin' on a Prayer".
While not the smash of that song, "Save Up All Your Tears" was a significant hit for Beck in West Germany and Switzerland, where it went to #10 and #5 respectively, and was also a success in Sweden and Austria.
A video was made for the single (which features UFO guitarist Laurence Archer) although it received some video airplay on MTV and radio airplay in the US (whilst also making it on a top 40 station in St. Louis)[1] and UK, it failed to garner any national success in the United States to chart on any Billboard charts and was only a minor hit in the United Kingdom.
"[8] Larry Flick from Billboard commented, "Rousing, guitar-driven pop/rocker should have ushered in media icon's current Love Hurts opus.
