Doctor Who: One Song Per Episode

Doctor Who: One Song Per Episode

Does pretty much what it says on the tin: one song for every Doctor Who episode, 2005-2013. (Two more songs for the upcoming end-of-year specials may be added later.)

Includes some songs that appeared on the show, but no songs that were *written* for the show- so no Song For Ten etc. There’s rock! There’s pop! There’s musicals! There’s some stuff that probably counts as British telly injokes! There’s something for every Whovian, hopefully.

Are you ready? Every single song title and its lyrics are under these cuts:

Hard Times For Dreamers: an Eponine fanmix

ef

Wolf > First Aid Kit
Holy light, oh, burn the night, oh keep the spirits strong
Watch it grow, child of wolf
Keep holdin’ on

Keep The Streets Empty For Me > Fever Ray
I learned to not eat the snow
My fur is hot, my tongue is cold
On a bed of spider web
I think about to change myself

Good Enough > Evanescence
And I’ve completely lost myself, and I don’t mind
I can’t say no to you
Shouldn’t let you conquer me completely
Now I can’t let go of this dream
Can’t believe that I feel

If I Needed You > Andrew Bird
If I needed you would you come to me
Would you come to me, for ease my pain?
If you needed me
I would come to you
I’d swim the seas for to ease your pain

Not a Pretty Girl > Ani DiFranco
I am not a pretty girl
that is not what I do
I ain’t no damsel in distess
and I don’t need to be rescued
so put me down punk
maybe you’d prefer a maiden fair
isn’t there a kitten stuck up a tree somewhere

Parasol > Tori Amos
I stare at the wall knowing on the other side
The storm that waits for me
Then the seated woman with a parasol
May be the only one you can’t betray
If I’m the seated woman with a parasol
I will be safe in my frame

Be Mine > Robyn
For the first time, there is no mercy in your eyes
And the cold wind’s hitting my face and you’re gone
And you’re walking away
And I am helpless sometimes, wishing’s just no good
‘Cause you don’t see me like I wish you would

Female Robbery > The Neighbourhood
I think I found out that I have nothing,
That I have nothing in this place for me.
I watched it all in my head, perfect sense.
They’ll take me from me my bed

Tastes Like Sympathy > Birdeatsbaby
I was once a child of God but then the devil kissed me
He gave me fear, and he said my dear
‘God will never miss thee’

Pirate Jenny > Nina Simone
Noon by the clock
And so still at the dock
You can hear a foghorn miles away
And in that quiet of death
I’ll say, “Right now.
Right now!”
Then they pile up the bodies
And I’ll say,
“That’ll learn ya!”

Young > Hollywood Undead
I see the children in the rain like the parade before the pain.
I see the love; I see the hate; I see this world that we can make!
I see the life I see the sky. Give it all to see you fly…
Yes, we wave this flag of hatred, but you’re the ones who made it!

Kill The Boy > Emeli Sande
I walk around with a bullet on my tongue,
Killer written on my face
I know that when he finds out what I’ve done,
It’s gonna take his life away
And his heart will break and once the pain will stop the beating,
Skin will turn as cold as ice.
When his lungs collapse enough will there be no more breathing?
I will gently close his eyes

Sorry > Maria Mena
I just poured my heart out
there’s bits of it on the floor
And I take what’s left of it and rinse it under cold water
And call him up for more

Oh Death > Jan Titus
But what is this, that I cant see
with ice cold hands taking hold of me
When God is gone and the Devil takes hold,
who will have mercy on your soul
Oh, death

My Blood > Ellie Goulding
The lost dreams are buried in my sleep for him
And this was the ecstasy of a love forgotten
And I’m thrown in the gunfire of empty bullets
And my blood is all I see
As you steal my soul from me

Nothing But The Water > Grace Potter and the Nocturnals
Tried my hand at the bible
Tried my hand at prayer
But now nothing but the water is gonna bring my soul to bare

Prelude 12/21 > AFI
This is what I brought you this you can keep,
This is what I brought you may forget me
I promise to depart just promise one thing,
Kiss my eyes and lay me to sleep

Bones > Ms Mr
Dig up her bones but leave the soul alone
Lost in the pages of self made cages
Life slips away and the ghosts come to play
These are hard times
These are hard times for dreamers
And love lost believers

I Don’t Want To Be A Soldier: a Rory Williams fanmix

rwf

NO, I’M NOT HERS >> Trying To Throw Your Arms Around The World (U2)
Six o’clock in the morning
You’re the last to hear the warning
You’ve been trying to throw your arms around the world

I HAVEN’T TOLD YOU FOR SEVEN HOURS >> I Caught Fire In Your Eyes (The Used)
Just stay with me
Lay with me now
Never caught my breath
Every second I’m without you I’m a mess

IT BLOTS OUT EVERYTHING ELSE >> Any Other World (Mika)
Say goodbye to the world you thought you lived in
Take a bow, play the part of a lonely lonely heart
Say goodbye to the world you thought you lived in
To the world you thought you lived in

YEAH I WOULD LIKE THAT >> It’s Time (Imagine Dragons)
It’s time to begin, isn’t it?
I get a little bit bigger, but then I’ll admit
I’m just the same as I was
Now don’t you understand
That I’m never changing who I am

I WANT THE OTHER LIFE >> My World (SR-71)
Does he make you high, make you real?
Does he make you cry? Does he know the way you feel?
Love is all around you, your universe is full
But in my world, there is only you

ANYWHERE’S GOOD FOR ME, I’M HAPPY ANYWHERE >> Thoughts of Flight (Edmund – Arthur Darvill’s band)
One more day of perfect terror
Close my eyes and I’m still there
Wrapped in water
My eyes explode from all this light
The taste the smell into the night
I can hear a symphony
A perfect crystal melody

I’M A NURSE >> Best I Can (Art of Dying)
I am doing the best I can with everything I am
Don’t you know nobody’s perfect
Do you understand how hard I’m trying for you
I am doing the best I can with everything I am
Don’t you know I think you’re worth it

WILL SHE BE SAFER IF I STAY? >> I Will Wait (Mumford and Sons)
Raise my hands
Paint my spirit gold
And bow my head
Keep my heart slow
Cos I will wait, I will wait for you

HOW COULD I LEAVE HER >> I Will Wait For You (Connie Francis)
The clock will tick away the hours one by one
And then the time will come when all the waiting’s done
The time when you return and find me here and run
Straight to my waiting arms

BECAUSE RIGHT NOW I’M NOT >> Human (The Killers)
Are we human or are we dancer?
My sign is vital, my hands are cold
And I’m on my knees looking for the answer
Are we human or are we dancer?

I’LL BRING HIM, I SWEAR >> Violet Hill (Coldplay)
Bury me in armour
When I’m dead and hit the ground
A love back home, it unfolds
And if you love me, won’t you let me know?

WOULD YOU LIKE ME TO REPEAT THE QUESTION >> All These Things That I’ve Done (The Killers)
I wanna stand up, I wanna let go
You know, you know, no, you don’t, you don’t
I wanna shine on in the hearts of men
I wanna mean it from the back of my broken hand
Another head aches, another heart breaks
I’m so much older than I can take

SHE’S SO BEAUTIFUL >> Sweet Child Of Mine (Guns and Roses)
She’s got a smile that it seems to me
Reminds me of childhood memories
Where everything
Was as fresh as the bright blue sky

YEAH, WE KNOW >> God Says Nothing Back (The Wallflowers)
I hallucinated that you were in my arms
To be in your heart
I filled my own
Love says nothing back
But I told you so
I told you so

I LOVE YOU TOO >> I Belong To You (Muse)
How much pain has cracked your soul?
How much love would make you whole?
You’re my guiding lightning strike
I can’t find the words to say
They’re overdue
I’ve traveled half the world to say I belong to you

WE’RE DEAD AGAIN >> Old Before I Die (Robbie Williams)
She’s taking me places
I should never have been
She’s showin’ me faces
I should never have seen
Well these are strange days we’re livin’ in today
Cest la vie I say
I hope I’m old before I die

THEN I DO NOT WANT TO TRAVEL WITH YOU >> Losing My Religion (REM)
That’s me in the corner
That’s me in the spotlight
Losing my religion
Trying to keep up with you
And I don’t know if I can do it
Oh no, I’ve said too much
I haven’t said enough

YOU AND ME, ALWAYS >> I Won’t Give Up (Jason Mraz)
Well, I won’t give up on us
Even if the skies get rough
I’m giving you all my love
I’m still looking up
And when you’re needing your space
To do some navigating
I’ll be here patiently waiting
To see what you find

NOT ALL VICTORIES ARE ABOUT SAVING THE UNIVERSE >> Fight The Good Fight (Triumph)
Fight the good fight every moment
Every minute every day
Fight the good fight every moment
It’s your only way

IT HAS ACTIVATED, MA’AM >> Sword And Shield (Sister Hazel)
Just when the ocean starts to dry
Just when the air is sick with smoke
Just when the statues start to cry
And fallen angels they lay broken
I will be there I will be the smallest piece in everything
And I would lose my life before I break this promise to you

THEN WE’RE NOT MARRIED. JUST LIKE MAGIC >> Almost Here (Brian McFadden)
You have been my life
And I never planned
Growing old without you
Shadows bleeding through the light
Where a love once shined so bright
Came without a reason

I LOVE YOU MORE THAN YOU LOVE ME >> Closer (Kings of Leon)
This floor is crackling cold, she took my heart, I think she took my soul
With the moon I run far from the carnage of the fiery sun

THE REST OF OUR LIVES? AGREED >> Hold On To What You Believe (Mumford and Sons)
I ran away
I could not take the burden of both me and you
It was too fast
Casting love on me as if it were a spell I could not break
When it was a promise I could not make
But what if I was wrong?
But hold on to what you believe in the light
When the darkness has robbed you of all your sight

TO SAVE YOU I COULD DO ANYTHING >> A Thousand Years (Christina Perri)
I have died everyday waiting for you
Darling don’t be afraid I have loved you
For a thousand years
I’ll love you for a thousand more

Lost In Paradise: a Martha Jones fanmix

martha

Have You Met Miss Jones > John Barrowman
Have you met Miss Jones
Someone said as we shook hands
She was just Miss Jones to me

Ever Fallen In Love > Pete Yorn
You disturb my natural emotions
You make me feel like dirt and I’m hurt
And if I start a commotion
I’ll only end up losing you
And that’s worse

For You To Notice > Dashboard Confessional
I’m starting to fashion an idea in my head
where I would impress you
with every single word I said

Lost In Paradise > Rihanna
Somebody tell me how to mend a broken-hearted soul
In love we all will fall but we fell a little harder
What am I supposed to do with this heart?
It may be wrong but it feels right
To be lost in paradise

Dancing With Myself > Billy Idol
If I looked all over the world
And there’s every type of girl
But your empty eyes
Seem to pass me by
Leave me dancing with myself

He Doesn’t Love You > Sarah McLeod
Got buried alive
In somebody’s world
There’s too many people, too many girls
Got nothing to hide, you know what to do
Coz he loves himself
But he doesn’t love you

I Can’t Take No More > Beyonce
It’s really been weighing on me, tell me what did I do?
To have ya’ll hatin on me, when I don’t have nothin’ to prove
Sometimes I shake my head
when I’m layin’ down in my bed
Thinkin’ ’bout the things been said,
when you really don’t know me yet

Untouchable Face > Ani DiFranco
Think i’m going for a walk now
I feel a little unsteady
I don’t want nobody to follow me
‘Cept maybe you
I could make you happy you know
If you weren’t already

These Boots Are Made For Walking > Nancy Sinatra
You keep samin’ when you oughta be changin’.
Now what’s right is right, but you ain’t been right yet
These boots are made for walking, and that’s just what they’ll do
One of these days these boots are gonna walk all over you

Seven Devils > Florence and the Machine
Holy water cannot help you now
Thousand armies couldn’t keep me out
I don’t want your money
I don’t want your crown
See I’ve come to burn your kingdom down

Love Is Blindness > Jack White
Love is clockworks,
And it’s cold steel
Fingers too numb to feel
Squeeze the handle
Blow out the candle
Blindness

Jar Of Hearts > Christina Perri
I hear you’re asking all around
If I am anywhere to be found
But I have grown too strong
To ever fall back in your arms

Big Strong Girl > Deb Talan
It’s not now or never.
It’s not black and it’s not white.
Anything worth anything takes more than a few days
and a long, long night

Life On Earth > The Divine Comedy
So don’t rely on the stars above
Screw the universe
You’d better try to live your life on earth
I’m gonna try to live my life on earth

Martha’s Theme > Murray Gold

Listen on 8tracks

The past couple of days I’ve been uploading some of my old fanmixes from Livejournal onto 8tracks. In alphabetical order, here they are:

Down We Go (Anakin/Padme from outta Star Wars)
I Will Make You Hurt
(Harry Osborn from outta Spider-Man)
Leaving Land
(Mickey Smith from outta Doctor Who)
She Learned (Rose/Doctor, mostly Rose really, from outta Doctor Who)
Sit Down Next To Me (Ursula from outta Spider-Man)
The Streets Of London (V for Vendetta)

It took ages, I updated the cover art for most of them. Whew.

 

awake oh sleeper: another Grantaire fanmix

mad world gary jules (And I find it kind of funny, I find it kind of sad, the dreams in which I’m dying are the best I’ve ever had)

people ain’t no good nick cave and the bad seeds (It ain’t that in their hearts they’re bad, they can comfort you, some even try)

old number 7 the devil makes three (So I’m watching as his wings spread as wide as could be, come on now and wrap them around me, cos all I want to do now is fall to sleep, come down here and lay next to me)

carry me home the living end (one more round is all I need, fill it up and let me be, it’s getting late I should’ve known, won’t somebody carry me home?)

life versus the lifeless the beautiful south (That’s what keeps you alive, the thought of undeserved death, that’s why cynics deep-sea dive, just to watch someone healthy lose breath)

alcohol the barenaked ladies (O Alcohol, would you please forgive me, for while I cannot love myself, I’ll use something else)

shiver coldplay (And it’s you I see but you don’t see me, and it’s you I hear so loud and so clear)

a drinking song the divine comedy (So don’t shoot til you see the reds of our eyes)

demons imagine dragons (Your eyes they shine so bright, I want to save their light, I can’t escape this now, unless you show me how)

awake oh sleeper the brothers bright (do you hear the lion roar, awake oh sleeper)

Rise Up – a(nother) Enjolras / Grantaire fanmix

SO Tumblr is like the worst place ever for uploading fanmixes because I wanted to stick all these DEEP AND MEANINGFUL lyrics under a readmore tag but I couldn’t I could but it looked ugly so Livejournal gets it too. (Here it is on Tumblr.)

Enjolras/Grantaire is very overfanmixed as a ship but what the heck, I wanted a mix of my very own! You can listen to it on 8tracks, or I’ve stuck links to Youtube on all the songs.
