VID: Farewell to Ten, the Doctor Who Remix (Blame It on the Pop)

[heidi]

So, what have I been doing since I watched the final David Tennant episode of Doctor Who?

Vidding. And weeping a bit while rewatching.

TITLE: Farewell to Ten, the Doctor Who Remix

MUSIC: Blame it on the Pop, the 2009 Remix by DJ Earworm - all songs included in the remix are listed below

RATING: PG

GENRE: Mash-up.

NOTES: In December of 2009, DJ Earworm released a remix of the top 25 songs in the US from 2009. I heard it the day before the last episode of Doctor Who starring David Tennant was set to air, and I knew from the first notes that I needed to do a vid about the Tenth Doctor set to this amazing mix of songs. It's my homage to Ten, his companions, his rivals and enemies.

So many thanks to longtimegone for sitting with me through the editing process - you are invaluable! And thanks to wendy for sharing the song last week! I wouldn't have heard it otherwise, so I couldn't have done this without her!

I don't know Doctor Who but damn, that's an awesome song.

Isn't it mind-blowing, what he did? On his website, he wrote this:

so many of the pop songs this year seem to tell the same story: Yeah, we’ve been through a lot, but right now we’re gonna celebrate with music and dance, and it’s gonna be ok.

And that's how I needed to feel when I heard the song and broke into tears, and I had to vid to it.

It's gonna be ok.

Heidi! That is fab!! Loved it, great way to say goodbye.

[heidi8.livejournal.com]

Oh, and your adorable Adipose saying goodbye, too! Thank you so much!

[aworldinside.livejournal.com]

Oh, wow. That made me quite sad. Oh, Ten. I'm really going to miss you. Awesome tribute though. I loved it. :)

Ohmygod, honey. that is just AMAZING. I am totally weeping here. I love that song so much, and have been totally listening it for the last week or so, and somehow, though I might have said you were crazy if you suggested it, it makes a PERFECT song for farewell to Ten.

BRB, CRYING NOW.

I am going to miss him - but doing this vid was almost cathartic - I got to re-watch so many wonderful moments and pay such specific attention to his face. It helped.

And thank you so much - glad you loved it!

[heidi8.livejournal.com]

It is such an amazing song! And I was crying too, when I watched it in final form for the first time. It's bizarre and fantastic how something that's an amalgamation of everything that 2009 was, is so fitting for Ten. But that's what DW is - it's everything, all together now.

HUGS TO YOU! ALSO TISSUE.

I've been loving that song for a few weeks. This is awesome. I've never seen DW, but I know what it's like to lose a character. *hugs*

[heidi8.livejournal.com]

Thank you, you're so sweet!

[tahirire.livejournal.com]

I put the link on my facebook so my non-fandom Dr Who friends don't miss it. They've all been very sadface lately.

[misscake]

Excellent!

You know I loved this! At first I didn't know if the song would work, but then I watched that first minute or so and I was like OMG YES. It's a lovely send off for the Tenth Doctor! <33333333 Thank you for letting me squee while you made it!

Donna laughing in the segway scene is still fantastic. <3

A friend linked me over here...this is amazing. I had seen the remix before, but this also works so well for 10. I especially liked how you linked up Poker Face with the Master race scene.

Exciting!!

[grlgoddess.livejournal.com]

I heard this mix before and adored it! And this vid just made it better! Oddly, I now want to rewatch S2, and I never watch S2.

i love this song so much already, and this was just fantastic! my favorite bit was the timing at the very beginning - so great in sync with the beats!!

[missalee.livejournal.com]

That was brilliant and awesome in so many ways! Amazing job with the editing and a great match to the song(s). Who would have thought? But it's perfect!

[yohopiratediva.livejournal.com]

Fabulous! I didn't know if I should laugh or cry or what, but I SO enjoyed that. Perfect way to end my night. :D

[thunderemerald.livejournal.com]

This is fucking fantastic, lady. I LOVE it. (Also I may or may not have choked up with the Mraz song cut in.)

[megaloo13.livejournal.com]

That was marvelous! It doesn't hurt that I've had that song stuck in my head for the past two weeks. :)

Such a lovely mix of joy, sorrow, excitement, humor, and explosions; basically everything that made me love Tenannt's run and truly makes me think of him as my Doctor. Am looking forward to Eleven, but I will miss Ten a hell of a lot. Your vid is a perfect send-off to him.

Great video!! I really enjoyed Ten. I'm going to miss David Tennant.

[hufflepuffia.livejournal.com]

SO GOOD. excellent editing on this one Heidi!

[heidi8.livejournal.com]

Thank you!

[heidi8.livejournal.com]

Ooooh, thank you so much! I was utterly miserable about Ten leaving, too - hope this helps!
