Doctor Who: More on Planet of the Ood (music-related)

So, the Doctor's song may be ending soon. What's that about? I've got no notion. Isn't that fun?

The bit of the Doctor's theme that plays at the end of PotO goes sliding down fast, much faster than it plays in the straight-up 'Doctor's Theme'. It is, in fact, exactly the version of the song that appears over the driving beat of 'Doomsday' (all of the 'Doctor's Theme' is much... dreamier than the more intent version that is sung during 'Doomsday').

Note: Ah-ha. A mystery is solved. Though the melody from DD is not the same as "The Doctor's Theme", it is still the same as the music that happens when Rose enters the TARDIS (as pointed out by [livejournal.com profile] cookie2697), which is not "the Doctor's Theme" and does not appear to be on the soundtrack of first series (unless someone else finds it there!).



And here's the imeem link if the embed doesn't work.

They're the two halves of a whole -- she's the driving, burning determination and he's the lone, calling voice. Each reaching out. Each still lost.

And that is all the meta that I have for right now.

Oooh. Great compilation.

They do stuff like this and I start... wondering if they might actually know what they're doing. :D

I definitely think there was hope in the Ood's message. The episode was about the Doctor reacting to THEIR sad song, so it makes the most sense to me that they were reacting to his pain in return. *flail*

I begin to suspect that they know everything! Except how to handle unrequited love! They could use a little bit of work in that area.

*nods*

Reverse image of Gridlock, that way. It would be rather fitting and I'm sure the structure of it would appeal to RTD.

Yes, yes, it does.
