Widely Popularized Sentence is Very US-Centric

[edit]

At the top of the article, it's written that, it was "Widely popularised as the theme from The Deer Hunter some eight years later." Later on, it's written that, '"Cavatina" was also used to accompany "The Gallery" in the UK children's programme Take Hart, and its predecessor Vision On, during the 1970s.'

In my opinion, the first statement may be true in the US, but in UK, I'm pretty sure that the tune was widely popularized by its use in Vision On, the children's tv show. I recall seeing it often on children's tv before I had finished UK equivalent of high school and Deer Hunter did not come out until after I had graduated from college. The tune was already popular before the Deer Hunter came out. I recall hearing it in other places than the cildren's TV show. The Deer Hunter statement should be qualified as being true in USA. It should also be noted that there is no citation for either statement in the article. Interestingly, the "popularised" sentence appears to be written by a British person, judging by the spelling. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 129.210.51.150 (talk) 18:58, 14 July 2017 (UTC)[reply]
