Recently I've come across a few songs that make me think of Doctor Who. Some are a bit of a stretch while others are like, "Um, so, is the band a fan of the show or something?" Here are the three that stick out for me at this time:
Cosmic Love by Florence + The Machine-- Amy/11. This one's more of a poetic stretch, but I've see about three or four 11/Amy fics that use this song as a prompt (including my own SHAMELESS SELF-PROMOTION), so that's gotta say something.
Starlight by Muse-- This really could cover any particular ship or even any particular Doctor/Whomever relationship, howeverrrr I did find a particularly well done video of Rose/Ten, even if I don't ship them. I tend to imagine Season 5 with this song and if I ever get my hands on a movie maker, I'd make the most banging slightly shippy video.
All These Things That I've Done by the Killers-- The Doctor. Like, his whole flippin' life. Just like the previous one, I tend to focus on Season 5 'cause that's how I roll, but still. Listen to the lyrics. It's nuts.
Little poll: So! I know I'm not the only music/Doctor Who lover out there. Have you ever come across a song and thought, "By golly, that sounds like it could be the Doctor/SoandSoCompanion/SeriesX/etc's theme song"?
