"Bright Eyes" is a song written by British songwriter Mike Batt and performed by Art Garfunkel. It was written for the soundtrack of the 1978 British animated adventure drama film Watership Down. Rearranged as a pop song from its original form in the film, the track appears on British and European versions of Garfunkel's 1979 Fate for Breakfast and on the US versions of his 1981 album Scissors Cut. "Bright Eyes" topped the UK Singles Chart for six weeks and became Britain's biggest-selling single of 1979, selling over a million copies. Richard Adams, author of the original novel, is reported to have hated the song. A cover of the song was later used in the Watership Down television series explicitly as its theme song.

  • Bright Eyes är en sång skriven av Mike Batt, och framförd av Art Garfunkel. Den finns med på soundtracket till den animerade filmen Den långa flykten ("Watership Down") 1978, vars signaturmelodi den ofta anses vara. Låten finns även på Art Garfunkels fjärde studioalbum (i en annan version) som soloartist, Fate for Breakfast från 1979 (utom i USA) och på den amerikanska utgåvan av Garfunkels femte album Scissors Cut 1981.
