• across the sand

This mix is mostly my interpretation of how I would feel if I was The Doctor, having to say goodbye to yet another companion and having to live on longer than humans. thus this mix has a fairly depressing tone, but it builds to the end where the songs are more optimistic, because I think that's what The Doctor really is. A bundle of complicated sadness and joy. It's slightly Ten/Rose-centric if you squint.

"Because I have seen him. He's like fire and ice, and rage. He's like the night, and the storm in the heart of the sun. He's ancient and forever. He burns at the centre of time and he can see the turn of the universe. And he's wonderful." (Doctor Who season 3, Family of Blood)
