Who else cried when this song played during 11's regeneration when Amy showed up and said, "Raggedy man, good night."

+Envy Shiny Hunter Surprisingly accurate XD
+Envy Shiny Hunter 1,000 years of history of time and space, impossible things, regenerating, the entire universe vs. a leaf that brought 2 people together
The leaf won
Doctor Who is a little strange...
+Kittykatsmiles it was the shear power of what could have been. The doctors past was absolute but the power that the leaf held was infinite, the things that could of happened because of it.

10 & 11 (Tennant & Smith) were the PEAK of Doctor Who. I cried with them more than any other Lonely Man and his Blue Box. Words can't explain how these 2 crept into my heart and have left such a legacy and impact on everyone who watched the series revival. Also, don't listen to Song Of Captivity/Freedom and Long Song right after one another, I did & it broke me.
I honestly agree and now with them having a woman and now a black man for the sake of societies weakness and to conform with political correctness it's truly a sad world we live in surrounded by such sensitive people who can't take a joke
@@lilyfurley9833 I agree
@@lilyfurley9833 Nothing wrong with having a black doctor (woman is debatable given how Time Lords had been established to work) but the writing is what ruined it.
@@lilyfurley9833 I mean I think it doesn't matter that much... Jodie Whittaker should have had a better showrunner and Ncuti Gatwa hasn't even started. It's got nothing to do with them being doctor or not, since timelords are gender and race fluid. Personally Ncuti Gatwa is a great actor so I'm looking forward to it. He's qualified.
@@gavinbarnum9458 you might want to watch the Christmas episode? Seems they are handing the reins back to David Tennet. Likely to drag the ratings out of the toilet they currently are in.

This song will never fail to bring a tear to my eyes, it's purely beautiful. 'Rings of Akhaten' may have not been the best episode in the world, but with that powerful impassioned speech by Matt Smith accompanied with one of the most delicate and beautiful tunes I have ever heard - that episode will be one I shall never ever forget and for all the right reasons
I still cry when I see this episode
+Harry Rickard SAME O_O ;D
+Mangle The pirate fox
The best line from that episode:
"I walked in universes where the laws of physics were devised by the mind of a madman!"
It's only me and my opinion, but this is one of my favorite episodes (along, I'd say, with The Doctor's Wife, Blink, and the Rebel Flesh duo). FWIW :)

I quoted the very beginning of this at my Mom’s funeral. “Rest now, my warrior”
It still hits hard when I listen to this but I do love it. Sadly most didn’t watch the show, so they didn’t know the absolute pain in the following words that I was screaming on the inside……
“Wake up….. wake up…… and let the cloak of life cling to your bones, cling to your bones….. wake up…. Wake up” mom……but I know she won’t.
She was my warrior, and I hope she rests well. Sorry to spill a very personal thing here in a comment section, but to those that share my love of this song, I just felt compelled to share.
Very sorry for your loss.

''Can you hear them? All these people who lived in terror of you and your judgement...all these people whose ancestors devoted themselves, sacrificed themselves, to you...can you hear them singing?''
You can see and hear the warm reverence in the Doctor's smile and voice. You can feel the dignity and courage that he's both drawing from the people and summoning from within himself as they stand against a seemingly insurmountable threat staring down at them. That little precursor is just as powerful to me as the epic speech that followed.

Best thing in the world, best show ever
@@ladyselin35 really? my favorite ever episode is remembrance of the daleks. and while it is not a masterpiece, i really liked doctor who and the dinosaurs.
I have a theory about this song. I know that it is unlikely but it's pretty interesting. At the beggining it says "Rest now, my warrior" I don't think that they were speaking about the God, I think that it is for the Doctor. The Doctor didn't die, he regenerates into another man and then the previous Doctor goes to sleep, to rest. He is a warrior, he saves the entirely Universe a lot of times, including Akhaten, because he has already been there. Then, the next Doctor wakes up, he lives.
Pretty interesting... I want to add the fact that an instrumental version of this is playing while Eleven regenerates, just quietly but it's there...
Dr Who has layers upon layers, which makes it rich and enticing. Always. I've wept more over this show than any other show or book or tale.
It's a story the never ends because it's still going on.
Thanks. That makes much more sense than singing it to the god. I always found it weird that they sing "wake up", when they want the god to keep sleeping.
I thought I was the only one thinking this song applies directly to the Doctor, especially when we think about what River told him in Demon's Run, that the world "doctor" means warrior in the Gama Forest's language so maybe in other languages too. The Doctor is the old man resting, his time is over and another Doctor will come to take is place, he can rest
Murray Gold is REALLY underrated, he should have WAY more recognition for Doctor Who alone, hell this song is BEAUTIFUL. So much power! And that's with the rest of the soundtrack, he's a genius.
I couldn't agree more with you. Absolutely right.
when he leaves or steps down or retires or whatever . who will have died for me because Murray , has the best things to give every episode and nail it
derpy twerp gamer yt Girl He's gone 😢
Murray gold was one of the best things to happen to doctor who. The new composer better be a good damn one
Abnormally Normal
Are they good?
I just noticed that they played a small part of the song while eleven was regenerating. It was funny because Amelia said " Goodnight , raggedy man" and this song says "Wake Up!"

+Strax aren't you one angry potato?
+Strax No, I'm the clever one you are the potato one. Now shut up!
+Sunny Shukla I saw the episode very recently, and, for some reson I just started humming to it when it played, as I got the feels. :)
How is this funny
I love that sound of multiple people singing in unison, for it sounds like the voice of humanity.
christ its voices of humans what ya think... fucking hell...
okay why are you speaking like ur a poet from the 1700s
Which is funny because none of them are human
bro I swear everyone here is toxic 💀I’m sorry
First time reading the lyrics, and holy SHIT. All this time I thought the song was referring to the parasite, but it wasn't. It's to the Doctor. No wonder it was played during his regeneration into 12.
"Let the cloak of life cling to your bones." Fitting, considering how old, and well, bone-y 12 appears. :D
Oh wow! I thought so too....OMG! I have the chills now, I just cant stop listening to this song!
I've always thought this song was about The Doctor, and it's one of my favorite songs in the show!
I interpreted it as the dr but his next chance where he was given another regen (now 2) and accepted the life he was given after he was ready to give it up
I only just realized how suiting this is for a regeneration theme. The dying Timelord/Doctor is resting now, but the new Timelord/Doctor is waking up to a new age.
yes
feels
In 11th's regeneration, if you listen closely to the background music there is a moment where you hear a section of this song.
PresidentSnow To be honest I have a feeling this song is actually a prelude to the doctors regeneration. The bit about let the cloak of life cling to your bones seems reminiscent of how 11 (or as he actually was 12... or 13 in regenerations) got the gift of a new regeneration cycle from the time lords. 11 can rest now, but the life still clings to his old body.
PresidentSnow Yes - that piece of music is called Infinite Potential. Separate track on the album.
This is my video using that music if you would like to check it out - Tribute - Time Of The Doctor (Doctor Who)
Marc Long agree
This song makes me cry, because it brings so many memories of 11.. We miss you.
Raggedy man..goodnight
Same he is missed

The tenth doctors regeneration was sadder, he said he didn't want to go with such a sad face:(
Maybe this song will help me sleep.

Something old something new something borrowed something blue
Something under the bed something red. Something that is mine something that is a tie. Something that forgets something the remembers. Something at the corner of my eye something that was mine. Something like a river something like a pond.
My first thought was: Synthetic agony.
Something like a melody, something like a song.
I AM DYING!!!!!!!!!!! I am crying.Don't do this to my emotions. This song, Abigail's Song, Song of Captivity and Freedom, "Amy, what is it?!" "Something old, something new, something borrowed and something blue."; "The only water in the forest is the river." ; "GERONIMO!!!!!!!!!!!!!!" ; ""Bow ties are cool." ; "I will always remember when the Doctor was me." ; "Come along Pond." ; "Rory the Roman!" ; "My Impossible Girl." ; "I'm falling and I don't know if I'll ever stop. I'm Clara Oswald, I was born to save the Doctor." "When you love the Doctor, it's like loving the stars themselves, you don't expect a sunset to admire you back." ; "... time can be re-written." "Not those times, not one moment. Don't you dare." ; "You, me, time and space- you watch us run!" (I know that the last two aren't Matt Smith but they are River Song and as she is 11's wife, I thought them appropriate). Doctor Who has given me so much. I'm crying... Thank-you!!!!!!!
Andrew Paresa :)
I always get mixed feelings when I listen to this song...
It makes me cry;
1. Because it's so beautiful
2. Because I freaking miss Eleven
It makes me happy;
1. Because it's so beautiful
2. Because I freaking love Eleven
agreed
Who else didn't realise that this song was really about the Doctor until that tiny trace of it they put into his regeneration scene? Mind - blown.
When I heard the song the first time I was like "yep, this is the one they are using.."
People loved this song, it's appropriate and they made it subtle. Loved it.
NewFormofSilence The words describe the last episode perfectly too.
Indeed mind blown.. i just remember the lyrics "live, wake up wake up" from the song and fit perfectly there.. (though took me a while to realise which song it was) :)
"Rest now my warrior. Rest now, your hardship is over." From the centuries he spent fighting the Cybermen and Daleks defending Gallifrey and Christmas.
Who is listening in 2020???
I miss 11°Doctor
They give the keys to the T.A.R.D.I.S. back to Marvel UK,

I’d never watched The Doctor before, I remember growing up knowing that Matt Smith was the Doctor and when I was kid I saw this episode and I remember having chills. I was 11 or 10 not sure, but now I’m 18 and I watched from 9-13 and still when this happened I cried a little , feeling like a little girl again on my couch. Not only is Doctor Who a time lord in the show but he’s timeless in my life.
Thanks 11 for being My Doctor.
"The Time of Angels" was the first episode I watched. xD
@@HexenkoeniginVonAngmar😂, I mean it's not a terrible introduction to doctor who, it showcases the horror and time travel elements that doctor who brings and 3 of the main characters
@@Maxippo True enough. I did end up watching a whole bunch of it after all 😂
I genuinely want this song to be played at my funeral. I don't think I have any other song that I would want.
It's just so beautiful.
This is so beautiful!. Dr.Who has the best song soundtracks ever.
I too agree. Can't wait for the new season of both Doctor who & last season of Game of thrones!!...
Melody Pond it’s even better than harry potter. and it’s hard to top harry potter. stranger things almost did.
Technically, it is the most important leaf in history. Without it, no Oswin to lead the Doctor out of the Asylum, no governess(right?)to help defeat the Snowmen, and no Clara Oswin Oswald to be the companion of the Doctor and save his life.
Absolutely true on all parts. :-)
Not to mention making him choose the fun TARDIS.

@@joelaw4996 OH SHI I JUST REALISED OMFG-
So all of time and space anything that ever happened or ever will... Where do you wanna start?
I swear, the more I learn about this episode, the more incredible it is. Mat Smith's era may have had it's share of horrible episodes but this one is definitely not among them. One of the few episodes that lets us look past the front he puts up for the people around him. We finally get to see why he's been acting the way he has since he regenerated. He views life as a burden, each loss pushing him closer to the edge. Lets not forget that this episode happens relatively close to when Amy and Rory died. It's the closest to suicide the Doctor has come since the relaunch and if not for Clara, it would have succeeded. Meanwhile the lyrics of the song are constantly prompting him to take a hold of life instead of throwing it away. How fitting that this song should also play at his regeneration, when he is finally ready to take the good with the bad in life and fully embrace it. THIS is where Matt Smith's Doctor truly shines.
Shurue That's a very good point! I think he already made the choice to accept the bad as well as the good, though, when he married River knowing how she would end and came back for Amy and Rory.
Shurue
And then all that character development was stolen by a leaf.
Honestly it should have ended with him regenerating right here to the next doctor. Hm?
meepo44fromroblox That would have been awesome, I won't deny that. However, I also can't deny that I like the fact that he got the chance to learn to enjoy life again over the course of this season by having a companion who has literally been with him through all his adventures. Clara saving him in that moment is actually pretty symbolic when you get down to it.
+Shurue I dunno. The Doctor seemed pretty close to suicide after losing Rose. Remember how there was an entire episode about what would have happened if Donna didn't get him away from the Racnoss?
@@CabbageSandwichgenuinely what was wrong woth the leaf
1:35--The sound of the choir singing as an image of the Doctor pointing his sonic screwdriver fades in gives me chills. The look on Matt's face is beautiful. It says, "I've been around for centuries and I'm going to defend all that is good in the universe no matter what". Powerful.
One of the most beautiful five minutes in TV history
"Okay then. That’s what I’ll do. I’ll tell you a story. Can you hear them? All these people who lived in terror of you and your judgment. All these people whose ancestors devoted themselves - sacrificed themselves - to you. Can you hear them singing? Oh, you like to think you’re a God. Well, you’re not a God - you’re just a parasite, eaten out with jealous, envy, and longing for the lives of others. You feed on them. On the memory of love, and loss, and birth, and death, and joy, and sorrow…so…SO…come on then, take mine. Take. My. Memories. But I hope you’ve got a big appetite. Because I have lived a LONG life, and I have seen a few things. I walked away from the last Great Time War. I marked the passing of the Time Lords. I saw the *birth* of the universe and I watched as time RAN OUT, moment by moment, until NOTHING remained - NO TIME, NO SPACE, JUST ME! I walked in universes where the laws of physics were devised by the mind of a mad man. And I’ve watched universes freeze, and creation burn - I have seen things you WOULDN’T BELIEVE AND I HAVE LOST THINGS YOU WILL NEVER UNDERSTAND - and I know things. Secrets that must never be told. Knowledge that must NEVER be *SPOKEN*! KNOWLEDGE THAT WILL MAKE. PARASITE.GODS. BLAZE! SO COME ON, THEN!!! TAKE IT!!!! TAKE IT ALL, BABY!!!!! HAVE IT! YOU. HAVE. IT. ALL!!!!!!!!!!"
+Sudoku Brony AHHHHHHHHHH! You said the whole speech! That was beautiful.
One of the best speeches I've heared.
I always get chills at that part
Someone say this in my wedding
I...I am crying. This is always the best part. I watch it over and over again, because some twisted part of me loves to watch sad things and listen to sad things...
Thanks, 11. You will be in my heart forever. Especially in this part with the tears streaming down your face as the parasite monster-god-thing eats your memories... I love you. You are the bane of my life

The first Doctor Who episode I ever saw was "The Angels take Manhattan", I believe "Rings of Akathen" was the second. Both left me in tears, which is pretty rare for me.
martijn van weele I"m so, so sorry.
Jess Caron Don't be. Sometimes, tears are good, especially when you don't cry a lot, and they are tv-show-induced...
martijn van weele NO, for the fact that the first Doctor Who episode you ever saw was Angels Take Manhattan!!
Jess Caron Why is that sad? Because it's a particularly sad episode, or because it's such a new episode? If the former, see my previous response, if the latter, well, better late than never, am I right?
***** That must've been awesome, to be introduced to one of the most iconic Doctor Who villains in such a great way...
Cant believe this episode was released 6 years ago, feels like yesterday i was watching it when it first came out!
Matt Smith was one of the biggest parts of my childhood with his portrayal of the eleventh doctor
I have never been more emotionally attached to any series until I started to watch Doctor Who. What an amazing serie, I find no fault whatsoever. David Tennant and Matt Smith, these two were so damn amazing as the Doctor.
rest now my Doctor
your hardship is over now
everything ends
its time for one last bow,
like all your otherselves
your hour is over now.
a new dawn has begun
and shall rise into the sky

twelve in reality dont forgot the double regeneration of david tennant
Well if you put it that way he's thirteen because the War Doctor was the actual 9th regeneration so 9=10, 10=11 and 12 cause of the double regeneration, and 11=13.
exactly mea culpa
Christina Burke His title will still be 11th, since calling him 13th would be confusing..
when hearing this I can only think of 11th doctors last speech about how we all must change 😭😭
RegginWhite yes we all must change man its ok
I love that we’ll always have this episode. And others like it. I feel we won’t be seeing anything like this in doctor who for a while.
Not at this rate XD
years later, i still get goosebumps instantly hearing this song. i haven’t even seen the episode in years but this song is just imbedded into my memory.
I love seeing comments from a few months ago that say "Smith has to regenerate to this!"
I guess they got what they wished for.
yup - it was meant to be :-)
Well, technically he regenerated to "Infinite Potential" which is probably even better, since it's instrumental.
***** True.
And I just love the title - Infinite Potential!
Just think what that could mean.
mdragon1801 Infinite potential, and he regenerated into a face we've already seen twice on the show. Lol
Not that that's a bad thing. Capaldi's gonna be great.
Brian MacLeod I'm so sure he's going to be!
Can't wait for next season to start :-)
I plan on having this played at my funeral. This song is so powerful and so moving. I remember this episode and it still brings tears to my eyes.
A week ago we had to put my dog to sleep, when my parents had left to take him to the vet to have him put to sleep, I couldn't cry but I wanted to so I thought music might help and I thought what better music to cry to than music from Doctor Who so I put the audio on headphones on full and I listened to this song and I cried and I thought of fond memories of that faithful stupid dog of mine, long may he rest!
This melody would really cut deep to the Depressed after going through a great deal of pain and suffering, coaxing them to look up and see that there is more to life than the past, and the future will always be there to hope for.
damn, you put into words why this song is so meaningful to me. I also feel like this is what it means when used for the Doctor's regeneration - coaxing him to keep living, even when he has seen and done so much and is so tired. Because there is so much more to do, so much more to see, and a universe full of hope to explore. Including, and worth, all the heart(s)break that comes with it.
As someone who understands The Doctor, all the guilt, pain and self-loathing, it honestly does.
Yes it makes people realize how hedonism is meaningless. Self indulgence does nothing for the betterment of mankind
Matt Smith was one AWESOME Doctor :)!
absolutely was!
To my mind, he was THE doctor :)
Frivya capaldi will be even better :D
Well, let's just hope Mr. Capaldi is just as good or better. I had doubts about Matt Smith at first, but now he's one of my favorites. Maybe the 12th Doctor will be great, too :).
***** we will see I hope you right
My feels are exploding in every point of time
I can relate
And the fact that they play this when 11 regenerates adds to it.

I just want to say I really love the little girl's voice who sings it. She just sounds so innocent and sweet.

"I will always remember when the doctor was me" ~11th doctor
This combined with Matt Smith's speech... the feels were strong with this episode. I was ridiculed by people at my school for liking this episode, but I stand by the fact that it was amazing - this scene with this music was amazing in itself!
At 1:15 seeing Matt Smith and this song...
the feels on the bus go round and round ;-;
agree
The Rings of Akhatan is one of my favorite Doctor Who episode for this song alone.
That's what I love about the doctor and this tune. Despite us always seeing him/her as the mad one running about eccentrically doing things and saving people, this song helps those of us that know of them, see him and all his incarnations as that singular extremely old, long lived and tired figure that has done so soo much endlessly, and countless times saved so many from enormous catastrophise and been worn out through so much emotional joys and devastation, that he isn't just a single figure anymore but an entity that can, as small as it is, face even a planet sized being and still over shadow it.
Ya know, as much as a leaf does.
This is the most beautiful song out of Doctor Who imo :)

I don't want to sound depressing but I want this song sung at my funeral in the same way with the slow singing and small pauses
Same like me bro.Its just too good and sad.
I feel the same way, actually.
I died when they resued it in the Christmas special....
Same
good night raggady man
This is my alarm for whenever I get up. Makes me feel like a badass getting up
cool
ME TOO OMG
lol this made me laugh when im crying props that hard to do...
Mine is ‘I am the doctor’ there’s a lot of hate for it because it was used to often but I still like it. Unlike everyone else I don’t get bord of things that easy
i could never do that because i would end up hating the song for waking me up and i love it too much
Rest in peace, John Hurt.
Evilgidgit4Ever He was the best Actor in Doctor Who
I hope one day he will come back. Maybe just as a mistake like the 10th but please. The time with him was too short and I can't stand the 12th Doctor (might be because I barely understand him). But then we need the Ponds back again as well. The girl who waited and the last centurion, the boy who waited 2000 years for his love to come. It broke my heart when they died.
I agree that season 8 did not give very much character to the new Doctor.However his character did start to develop at the time of season 9.
Lucas The PK Master Hmm okay but a whole season without a proper Doctor? Meh...
JacktheRah The good storytelling, funny jokes and a good companion made it good.
Lucas The PK Master Hmm... okay maybe I'll give it a try. But I still have a hard time understanding him whilst I haven't had this problem with any Doctor Who character so far.
JacktheRah Trust me.It took some time to get used to Tennant after Eccleston left for me as well.Oh and if you do not think what i said about season 8 is true , keep in mind it is my oppinion.
Take mine. Take my memories. But I hope you're got a big a big appetite. Because I've lived a long life. And I've seen a few things. I walked away from the last great Time War. I marked the passing of the Time Lords. I saw the birth of the universe and watched as time ran out, moment by moment, until nothing remained. No time, no space. Just me! I walked in universes where the laws of physics were devised by the mind of a madman! And I watched universes freeze and creation burn! I have seen things you wouldn't believe! I have lost things you will never understand! And I know things, secrets that must never be told, knowledge that must never be spoken! Knowledge that will make parasite gods blaze! So come on then! Take it! Take it all, baby! Have it! You have it all!
I read it exactly how he said it XD
:3
I never thought I could love Matt more than David but oh dear this scene THIS SCENE
edajflow Wait a minute... he didn't say "killed the Time Lords"... after Day of the Doctor this becomes very significant.
***** But there is so much more that should have happened but did not than that did actually happen- a look through human history should tell you that! The protesters in Baltimore have this fact as their banner, and so do environmentalists and people who visit war memorials and, yes, even people who hold cultural grudges we think are stupid about things that happened hundreds of years ago, and dammit, sometimes I don't know what the Doctor sees in the human race!
Now I must come to terms with my past... My many mistakes, my many regrets, I must face my past... and wake up.
feels
Crazy how a show can affect you like this. Make you think, make you cry, and get you so attached to the characters that you really feel hurt when they're gone...
When Matt was regenerating that time in the background this song was being played
I believe this will be played in the christmas special... like Vale Decem. More sorrowful though. Prepare those tears people!
I realize this was playing while the the doctor was regenerating in the tardis with Clara
However many years since I first watched The Rings of Akhaten and this still one of the most beautiful songs I've ever heard.
Yes, it was a great speech and one if the best from Matt Smith as 'The Doctor' however in this episode, I also have to give props for the speech given from Clara when she holds the leaf. To me, that was just as meaningful and beautiful as she was talking about time that never was due to tragedy. The whole two episodes was so impactful all across the board that not one scene or word didn't..it was just..awesome.
If BBC would makes an episode where the Doctor actually dies, BUT after he dies, all the people that he saved, they will all sing this song and while they are singing, he slowly rises off the ground with light particles covering his entire body, and after the song is halfway over, the light particles will slowly disappear, and the Doctor's body will be set standing up and his head slowly rises and when he opens his eyes, he will regenerate (like David Tennant's regeneration) into a new Doctor. Like if you like this idea 😃
I would cry over an episode like that.
+Kyle Weaver That would be beautiful.
+Kyle Weaver I think it'd be nice if all his companions were shown through a compilation while this song is playing...
Also, it'd be maybe better if instead of purely this song, a medley of songs stretching across all his adventures.
Side note, maybe all the light particles scatter in the wind, but in the end credits you see the TARDIS flying through space hinting that the Doctor even ran from Death.
I don't know about the particles and regeneration and stuff, but everyone he's saved singing the song would be beautiful.
+Russell Kostal that would be, just , beautiful. I think everyone who has working tear ducts would cry like hell and start a massive flood.
This is so good that it's not useful to notice the lyrics go "rest now... WAKE UP"
2020 I still came here to hear.
We miss you, you madman
We're all stories in the end, just make it a good one. Because it was, you know -11th Doctor
Raggedy Man, Goodnight.
Raggedy Man
2010-----------------2013
Also in memory of Amy pond and Rory Williams. also handless
Elder Dev YOU ARE FORGETTING SOMEBODY
was it river song
Elder Dev YES
I'm not a warrior Rory, I'm a nurse.
Oh my handless..i miss his more
It's so moving. A haunting melody that is releasing fear and defying it. It's beautiful, and nothing I expected to find in Doctor Who
Why is that?
This song would be beautiful at the funeral of a great person, imagine a beloved person is dying and hundreds or thousands of people singing "wake up". It would make a fantastic ending to a story
Is it bad that I'm tearing up? Can't wait for 12th doctor
nope - not at all
me too! :-)
No....... Not again im not watching the 12th for me it ended with matt smith
The true doctor
TheTrueHeroOfOlympus dude u probably arent a real fan if you were you would be looking forward to the new doctor because the doctor will always be the doctor no matter who he is
sehon gooding That is so true
I love this song. It brings me to tears every time I hear it.
Me too
same here.
filter021 :-)
Yep, grown man here shedding tears.. Only show to ever bring out the feels for me has been Doctor Who...
brenden619 I have nothing but respect for you :-)
When the show was actually good, i wish hearing this song would bring our old doctor back 😔😔😔 oh how he is missed.......
Yep
In my opinion, it was good until the 13th era. Plus season 7 was trash.
beautiful just beautiful!!! everyone who watched this is a Whovian and Proud
This and Vale Decem are just brilliant. All the memories of my two favorite Doctor's, David and Matt in two songs.
This is my alarm now "LIIIIIIIIIIVE! WAKE UP!"
Inspires yah to get trough the day, I guess.
hahahaha, pure genius.
HAHAHAHAHA thankyou i will now be waking up to that too
Oh thank you so much. I was going mad watching the scene itself over and over. Thank you! This song gives me chills and makes me weep EVERY time I listen to it.
They're all different people all throughout their lives, but that's good, so long as we remember who they used to be.
Rest in peace Doctor
this song makes me cry when i hear it. it is truly beautiful ..
me too
thanks for your comment
