Art Garfunkel : Bright Eyes
On May 10, 1979 Art Garfunkel's "Bright Eyes" was riding high, in the midst of its six week run at the top of the U.K. charts. Mike Batt of The Wombles was asked to writer a song about death for the animated film Watership Down, based on the novel by Richard Adams. Although a million people bought the single in the U.K., making it the biggest-selling song of 1979, Richard Adams was not a fan. As you can see in the letter below, he went so far as to say "I HATE Bright Eyes!"
