Doctor Who | 60th Anniversary Celebrations | FIFTEEN

Track 14 - Fifteen

[@nicholasboedecker9918]

The heavy brass gives it a bit of a Bond feel that I absolutely love.

[@RedCaio]

11 and 12 both had some Bond flavor too. :)

[@IanIsSwag]

I like it! I've seen a few people criticize that it's too jumpy, but honestly it['s high time The Doctor has had a theme that compliments how energetic and batshit crazy they are! I love it, and I hope it's used in a lot of action chase moments!

[@DalekPratt1963]

Especially the ending parts of the song! It reminds me of "I am the Doctor" from the 11th Doctor era!

[@Qarth56]

Interesting how the bit at 2:43 is identical to the music that played during Smith's first scene.

[@ParakoEPC]

2:11 is stuck in my head now…

[@Deinobi]

It's reminiscent of The Majestic Tale

[@oldoldmeme]

Hints of Smith and Jones, I am the Doctor, Am I a Good Man and for some reason the Legend of Zelda theme hahaha, sounds amazing, can't wait to be absolutely tired of hearing it every five minutes in a few years.

[@Editsofhistory178]

This sounds very triumphant so im guessing 15 will be strong and impressive based off of his previous experience as 14

[@diccchocolate416]

I can't wait for 15

[@Tweetlord]

Same! (Not before crying and getting over Tennant next month!)

[@diccchocolate416]

​@@TweetlordI can take it (I definitely can't take it)

[@Ostermond]

Oh, that's BRASSY.

[@captainduck3421]

Reminds me of the 70s era of Doctor Who and I love it!

[@rassilontdavros3004]

Dudley Simpson did love his bass clarinet parts.

[@davidrenwickjunior]

Marching right in to action, fast paced, hints of the other doctors themes to give you that hook to draw you in and reassurance it’s the same man, whilst being uniquely his own full of fun and ready to go. Would also be a great tune for a dance on strictly come dancing 💃 I look forward to seeing how it’s used and variants of it throughout the series ❤❤

[@rtpmedia]

It's Where Eagles Dare meets I Am The Doctor meets Capricorn One. Or Ron Goodwin meets Murray Gold meets Jerry Goldsmith. Maybe also a dash of Barry Gray too. I really like it. I love the Brassy sound too. It sounds very classically British in its Dambusters like tone, and I think it outdoes The Avengers movie theme very easily, which maybe what they're aiming for if its competing with Marvel on Disney Plus.

[@thefilmmusicaficionado7937]

I agree! It definitely evokes the likes of Barry Gray & Ron Goodwin but the rhythmic baseline and percussion reminds me of Morricone's Spaghetti Westerns. All in all, it's a fantastic theme! If this is what Murray's comeback sounds like, I'm more thrilled for the music than I am anything else at this moment in time.

[@jamjam-jp2lb]

What I find interesting is that it would appear Russel T is bringing back a bit or campy fun to that 'Blue Box Show'. By contrast Murray's new themes sound quite serious in tone, particularly Ruby's theme. I can't wait to hear how they sound on the show.

[@matthewvivian7235]

Very Thunderbirds. Love it!

[@shemdellashemygd29]

This is a W🔥

[@ciaran_telfer_18]

Also just realised there’s 11 theme in there, nearer the end.

[@Faulty720]

5....4....3....2....1! THUNDERBIRDS ARE oh wrong show ...

[@benjamindavis4974]

Sounds nothing like it more akin to John Williams

[@ennayanne]

@@benjamindavis4974 funny you're the only person who mentioned john williams but there's at least three other comments comparing it to thunderbirds

[@thefilmmusicaficionado7937]

@@ennayanne If anything it has the brash & jazzy style of John Barry and the rhythmic pace of a spaghetti western by Morricone.

[@thefilmmusicaficionado7937]

Having said that, John Barry & Barry Gray were friends so it's not a suprise.

[@RetroBrendo]

The first two minutes remind me a lot of the music of Barry Gray, who did a lot of work for Gerry and Sylvia Anderson. Particularly the drumming march beat, which evokes the iconic Thunderbirds march! Lovely stuff.

[@ROSSAYWHO2668]

i wrote so much about this and ruby's themes and then it got deleted when the song switched ! :(

[@ciaran_telfer_18]

I hope there’ll be a separate theme that goes with the epic serious bits of the show, the dramatic build up like the music for the end of Turn Left

[@marcosvfilho8687]

Every new doctor gets a secondary theme, Tennant got the one that played when he was saving River, Smith got The Majestic Tale, Capaldi Has the Sheppards boy... knowing murray this Doctor will probably have an amazing theme that will play on a epic moment. But i gotta say that this is already quite epic!

[@kierantolson335]

I am so hyped for the new era

[@tsuaririndoku]

You know, this reminds me of the classic Sci-Fi anime like Gundam or Space Battleship Yamato. It is a new take on Doctor Who but I kinda dig in.

[@fredh1720]

I suspect it'll take some getting used to this. I thought Akinola's music was sensational, and his theme for Jodie's Doctor was absolutely gorgeous. This on first and second listen is not. But I've enjoyed Murray Gold's music before (although not as much as most) so I'll give it a go.

[@benjamindavis4974]

And yet I didn't like Thirteens theme

[@mogreen12387]

I loved Akinolas music for the show so much....was wishing they kept him, but im loving the new music from Gold!!! I loved Gold during Smith and Cappaldis years.
