Angela Morley
Song : Bright Eyes (Title song from the movie Watership Down) (my version)
I was so longing to make a trailer to one of my most favourite stories. I was just waiting for the right song. Now I'm collecting clips from the TV series and I shall upload an AMV with them soon :D clips: Watership Down song: "My name is Lincoln" from "Island" OST I DONOT OWN ANY CLIPS/SOUNDS/MUSIC USED IN MY VIDEOS! THEY ALL BELONG TO THEIR RESPECTIVE OWNERS! MY VIDEOS ARE PURELY FANMADE AND I DO NOT MAKE ANY PROFIT FROM THEM!
this is my first AMV of Watership down ^^ I like very much Watership...
I love this song :) and I love the strings in the chorus ^^ Dont judge me to hard, cause im dutch, and i dont sing like a nightingale XD haha Dutch titel is Waterschapsheuvel ^^ Lyrics: Is it a kind of dream, Floating out on the tide, Following the river of death downstream? Oh, is it a dream? There's a fog along the horizon, A strange glow in the sky, And nobody seems to know where you go, And what does it mean? (Oh) is it a dream? Bright eyes, Burning like fire. Bright eyes, How can you close and fail? How can the light that burned so brightly Suddenly burn so pale? Bright eyes. Is it a kind of shadow, Reaching into the night, Wandering over the hills unseen, Or is it a dream? There's a high wind in the trees, A cold sound in the air, And nobody ever knows when you go, And where do you start, (Oh) into the dark. Bright eyes, burning like fire. Bright eyes, how can you close and fail? How can the light that burned so brightly Suddenly burn so pale? Bright eyes. Bright eyes, burning like fire. Bright eyes, how can you close and fail? How can the light that burned so brightly Suddenly burn so pale? Bright eyes.

This is what would happen if you started watching an episode of the Watership Down series if the company you bought it from didn't have a 100% quality satisfaction guarantee!
Yes, I know this has been done before. But it is my first short movie, and I wanted to try something simple. Any who want to know, this is the 1978 film, Waterhsip Down, directed by Martin Rosen. Based on the book, Waterhsip Down by Richard Adams. With the song "Bright Eyes" by Paul Simon & Art Garfunkel. Constructive criticism is welcomed! :) Enjoy! Disclaimer: I do not own this film; it is owned by Warner Brothers Company.

This is the scene with the song Bright Eyes, directly from the movie Watership Down. It's a beautiful movie. Don't make my mistake of watching it before going to bed. You won't sleep. You will just lie there and think. A lot. -- By uploading this, I've been responsible for causing people to cry. I don't like feelings of guilt so I guess I'll just cry too.
