Every country I’ve had different hit records, so we have to change the set to fit the country.

Meaning of the quote

This quote means that Bonnie Tyler, a Welsh musician, had to change her songs and performances to match what people in each country liked to hear. The hit songs that were popular in one country might not have been as popular in another country. So she had to adjust her show to make sure the music and performance fitted what the audience in each new country wanted to hear.
