Doctor Who Series 5 Soundtrack Disc 2 - 31 The Sad Man With A Box

No apologies for including so much music from the final two episodes of the season. They were simply the most ingenious and audacious of all Steven's stories, as if he'd made a bet to write himself into the most impossible corner and then think his way out of it in the most entertaining way possible. Toby Haynes paced the action with a deft touch, suggesting that the music maintain a light, often wry distance and comic spirit, simultaneously steering through the shocking cliffhanger of Pandorica and, of course, epic speeches, battles, a wedding and a rousing reunion or two. Or possibly three. Always interesting, constantly surprising, these last episodes were a pleasure to write for, and perhaps that comes through in the music.
Once again, thank you for supporting the show and the music of the show. See you again in 2011.
Murray Gold, London 2010.

"You know when sometimes you meet someone so beautiful and then you actually talk to them and 5 minutes later they're dull as a brick. Then there's other people, you meet them and you think: not bad, they're OK. And then you get to know them and their face just, sort of, becomes them...like their personality's written all over it. And they just, they turn into something so beautiful...Rory's the most beautiful man I've ever met" A. Pond

[@Cat-nb5qs]

At least the way I see it, this song is made of symbolism. The title is obviously a play on "The Mad Man with a Box." That didn't need saying really. The slow part from 0:00 - 1:55 shows how the Doctor's life is grand but altogether incredibly lonely and difficult. It reminds you that for all the wonders he sees, you would never want to switch places with him. When the song breaks into "I Am the Doctor" at 2:26, with the music swelling just before that, symbolises the way the Doctor tries to defy that pain by, well, running; it's the only way he can cope with the loss. The static that plays over "I Am the Doctor" represents how all that energy is just a facade for the man with the broken hearts, the lonely god, the saddest man in the universe, that he truly is.

Clara- that’s right, aim high! 8- I won’t remember this will I? 11-the time streams are out of sync, you wont be able to retain it, no. 8- so I won’t ever that I tried to save gallifrey rather than burn it.

I think the 11th Doctor should have regenerated to this, done his speech and said goodbye to Clara and Amelia. at 1:57 his face begins to glow, gradually getting brighter as he smiles at Clara until 2:25 when he bursts into light, at 2:55 he stops and turns into Capaldi, the music them jumping to 3:12.

The daft old man who stole a magic box and ran away. Did I ever tell you that I stole it? Well, I borrowed it. I was always going to take it back. Oh, that box. Amy, you'll dream about that box. It'll never leave you. Big and little at the same time. Brand new and ancient, and the bluest blue ever. And the times we had, eh? Would have had. Never had. In your dreams, they'll still be there. The Doctor and Amy Pond, and the days that never came. The cracks are closing. But they can't close properly until I'm on the other side. I don't belong here any more. I think I'll skip the rest of the rewind. I hate repeats. Live well. Love Rory. Bye bye, Pond."
