Anyone know where to get this version of the instrumental song? It's a different version than the first song on the soundtrack that's on Amazon and iTunes, as far as I can tell...this version is slower than the one on the album version and the guitar is less twangy. Thanks!
The song in THIS compilation is from the movie "The Princess bride" and composed by Mark Knopfler (Dire Straits). It's not the instrumental version of "Bright eyes".
Mark has nothing to do with the soundtrack of "Watership down". The music has been composed by Angela Morley, Malcolm Williamson and Mike Batt, who originally performed "Bright eyes", which has been the title-song...
Despite that both fit together very good!
Mark Knopfler has made some really great soundtracks!!
Mark Knopfler! what a genius muscian and brilliant guitarist! very peaceful and relaxing and reminds me of the big open fields of beautiful suffolk :)
You take a song from the best movie in history, and put it to scenes from the best book in "Modern" history. I must say you have done a GREAT job, I am a fan of both, and the pictures you used are all in a climax of the book. They are all exactly as I pictured them from the descriptions of Adams. I have read the book 73 times, and seen TPB at least 200. Bravo on your work.
I think this should be the prelude to my wedding.

There is a very nice version of this instrumental at weddingmusicproject.bandcamp dot com on the Love Songs album.
I like the guitar solo better on it.
