Chameleon Circuit - The Doctor Is Dying (acoustic)

[Zeezjay]

that was fucking awesome

[musicfreakazoid1996]

This is why i want to play the guitar.

[hayleypotter]

Wait... There was an advert for smurfs on before this...

[SqueeMachine]

This is the first Chameleon Circuit song I ever heard, and also my favourite, possibly because David Tennant was my first Doctor and I was very attached to him when I saw this episode. Anyway; this song is amazing!!!

[Testoasteron]

You guys should cover "The doctor is calling" by Megadeth ; D

(In case you havent already done that)

[TextingaTeaandScones]

Why are there random post it notes in the kitchen?

[TimBurtonRules]

Your such an amazing human being :]

[nozzlecebon1]

i love thisss songgggg :) makes me cry

[coffeestatuecatdoor]

sad song :(

[hiitsmeagaindontcry]

only a true doctor who fan crys over this, im glad to say i cried ,well done alex xD

[mywickedchicken]

Banksy shirt!

[hawkingparadox960]

Alex, can you make a video explaining all your pins/badges?

[Mathilda90]

WOHOOO!! WOOp WOOp

[22Helloworld]

DAMMIT you are amazing Alex! Freaking love your voice and everything!!! So awesome!! ^^

[HeathsHarleyQuinn]

Ten isn't my Doctor, but this song is my favourite from the Album. This and Silence and the End of Everything.

[grouch314]

He's left-handed but plays guitar with his right

[ddc32997]

"I dont want to go"

Me: *ugly sobbing*

[mrfishy192112]

This still gives me tingles. and I've watched/listened to this countless times

[jezevec137]

Brilliant!

[ThePaalanBoy]

I have just tried, fish fingers and custard AWESOME ';. D

[GamerGirl7158]

I'm trying to learn this on guitar :)

[ShadowyPurple14]

I.. I love you! I bet a lot of people don't do this!

[Tylenolover101]

I am in love with you Alex!

[LarissaDOREMI]

where could I get the chords for this?

[countingducks]

@LarissaDOREMI his website has cords for every thing i think :) x

[loulou5051]

@countingducks only the songs he wrote.

[sharpieddoodles]

I'm sorry, I just died. Give me a second to reassemble myself.

[JenniferGeee]

the way he says "gallifrey" hold on whilst i melt in my seat...... :)

[xoxheartsloverxox]

I can't understand how they sing this so well without choking up. Ten was my ALL TIME favorite (eh see what i did there lol) but every time i try to sing along i end up choking up with feeling.

[Bebbo1998]

at the end im like "AH HAH! YOU DO HAVE A SECRET AUDIENCE!"

[eceguran]

his voice is... amazing

[psychment]

I love you.

[AlfieTimewolf]

I love you Alex!! And I love Chameleon Circuit!!

You have to release a third album!!

[BananaBreadinc]

I have listened to this song a billion times and it still does not fail to give me goosebumps. I just love it.

[CDclaymations]

MAN you've got a good voice.

[DavijoBoy]

This is the best Chameleon Circuit song IMO...as well as An Awful Lot of Running.

[absolution12321]

as a fan of alex day and doctor who i am in love!

[MrHeadEsploder2000]

Why is it that the acoustic versions are better then the album versions? O.O

[TheTacosAreCold]

@MrHeadEsploder2000 It's cause more passion is put into it than in the studio. For example, watch Christina Perri's Sad Song, the original, then watch her Sad Song(Studio). Original is much better.

[dreadsymmetry]

YouTube just toldme that the author of this video does not allow playback on an iPad... Wth...?

[319gaga]

@dreadsymmetry IKR!!!! I couldnt watch it on my Ipad & i was kinda mad. Ive seen othr vids tht say that 2

[SpanTheWorld14]

He is so sexy when he sings like that.

[emagainsthem]

Alex is really tallented!

[daniil1410]

Why isn't it availible on mobile? :@

[accionerimonstarkid]

The whoops at the end of the song sound like Cho from AVPS :) xxxx

[DuncamProductions]

the audience of smurfs approves

[angelcakecookies]

I think I like this version better, just because it feels that more emotionally charged to me.

[TheNeiraaa]

Dark lord's returning, Hogwarts will be burning, last horcrux was inside for our Harry

The readers are crying.

The readers are crying.

The readers are crying.

The readers are crying.

Trock meets wrock.

[padfootandprongs07]

@TheNeiraaa You just made my day. Now I would like to hear this as a full song...

[chelseadunbar13]

Strange listening to this when you're really familliar with the album version because they're so different. Still love this acoustic though

[MissIneedAttention]

<3

[olivethunderbird]

love the epic pose at the end <3

[narwhal17]

This made my heart clench uncontrollably. That's a good thing. i think.

[HiThisIsOlivia]

The Smurfs loved it.

[bcwabass]

Dear YouTube

Before watching this awesome video, I had to sit through an advert for Yorkshire Puddings. Yes, Yorkshire Puddings are lovely. Yes, I would like some. But when I come on to YouTube, I come to watch videos, not food.

Cheers.

[Danekero]

@bcwabass You had to watch the ad because both Alex and Youtube need money to continue to produce awesome. Unfortunately, awesome does not grow on money trees, and because of this producing money is difficult. Rather than forcing you to pay thirty pence to watch the video, Youtube and Alex decided as partners to include a brief advertisement for the delightful people over at Yorkshire Puddings.

[10Shivi]

@bcwabass At least you got Yorkshire Puddings, I had Rob Brydon with Honey Nut Clusters.

[MidnightNinjaGal]

@10Shivi Same

[InfinityChaser]

@bcwabass At least your ad was for food...mine was for a Republican candidate. I bet candidates would get more votes from Youtubers if they offered a "skip this ad now" button

[callumrocksyoursocks]

@bcwabass Don't complain :) This is how Alex makes his living :D

[iamthewut]

This is, strangely, much better than the studio one

[VintageMofo]

Did you get that shirt on skreened?

[rifeey223]

this just made my heart happy. thank you.

[2palmsranch]

like this version better then the one on the CD

[mslittleproduction]

I thought you said there wasn't a tiny audience of smurfs...

[littlebirdmjfan]

@mslittleproduction he didn't say that? O.o *goes back to that part of vid*

[Stew1337]

This acoustic version with just you singing kicks the shit out of the over-synthed version on the album in my opinion, fantastic work! Been over a year and i still listen to this version almost every day

[SadamSkywalker]

liked and... subbed :)

[NawnExistent]

When I heard him say Jack I thought he shortened Jackie for some reason, then I remembered Harckness =S

[TheFiveAwesomeNerdz]

i actually love this.

[tgperg]

Is that a 6-string Ovation?

[mollcutio]

Alex...a request. Please put an acoustic version on iTunes or somewhere we can download it. This version is so much better, more emotional and more Tenth Doctor, than the version on the CD. Please? :)

[HarryLove19]

PROPER DECENT MUSIC :)

[ellieandjimmy]

hahaha ... smurfs

[ellieandjimmy]

Lol just made a video response to this because it's probably one of the best songs ever made (apart from the rest of chameleon cicuit songs) LOVE IT! anyway i will go off now and carry on listening to CC songs XD

[zeniaalive]

Proper decent music.

[pollon898]

Recently, I've become a tad obsessed with Doctor Who and chameleon circuit.... Got your CDs on repeat. PROPER GOOD MUSIC <3 x

[ImagineRevolution64]

Daleks in pig latin.

Alex Day.

*mindblown*

[FarfetchdForDinner]

@ImagineRevolution64 HOLY FUCK.

[NukesWin]

@ImagineRevolution64 HOLY... SHIT

[TheFlutification]

@ImagineRevolution64 RUUUUNNNN CHARLIE!!

[moviemakerpeoples025]

@ImagineRevolution64 holy shit.....

[schizophrenicPrime]

@ImagineRevolution64 I seriously freaked out when I read that xD

[loulou5051]

@ImagineRevolution64 false, its alekday

[jakemcook]

@ImagineRevolution64 depends if you pronounce it R-lex Day

[morganlizzie23]

223 daleks were hoping the doctor was actually dying

[Hazzrine]

Your left handed but you hold you guitar like a right handed person :D

[theadventuresofmary]

@Hazzrine I do that too :L

[mrfishy192112]

oh my gosh, the bit at about 2:49, when he sings 'you-oo-ou', i honestly nearly died, SO GOOD

[HannahThunderify]

@mrfishy192112 he has to stop being <3 <3 <3 <3 <3 a heartthrob.

[319gaga]

@mrfishy192112 Ikr, sooooooooo amazing. I kept replaying that part

[RainyThePenguin]

I sang along, I love this song so much!

[Verkiezen]

Is anyone else really really curious about what the note on the microwave says?

[tinysocks3]

@Verkiezen Well I am NOW!

[lifeblike226]

banksy shirt <3 

[Mcflyfan4ever123]

What are the chords and stumming pattern?

[Aquapussx]

Has anyone realized that David Tennant was Barty Crouch Jr.? That has changed me.

[ToothpasteCannon]

I have to say, I miss the guitar on the album version.

[SaxonVoter]

I want that guitar strap. :o

It's awesome.

[pokemonpwnu]

@SaxonVoter Its a black strap he just but pins and buttons on it a lot of musicians do that

[SaxonVoter]

@pokemonpwnu Yeah, I noticed that. It just looks so awesome. x)

[Giddygal98]

222 people got eaten by the smurfs

[necrolet]

...why did you do this in the kitchen?

[lkr7757]

Youtube, that's stereotyping. Just because I love Chameleon Circuit, all of the members, and also Doctor Who, it doesn't mean i need geek 2 geek dating.

It's true, but still. >.>

[TursipielAlthins]

On every new album I listen to, there's always (and I mean ALWAYS) at least one song that I don't really appreciate on the first listen through, but that later on becomes one of my favorites. That's what happened with this song. I love it so much now. <33 <-- time lord hearts

[NotSoTypicalAfterAll]

I swear out of the 274321 views I probably make up like 6605! hahaha <3 alex!

[Mutt709]

am I the only one who didn't cry when David Tennant died? :/ I loved him so much, but I was ready for a new Doctor, I think. :)

[emwekinz]

@Mutt709 I did :')

[1234invaderzimfan]

@Mutt709 i cryed for two weeks when he died and hes hot and i mean it cuz i love him

[awhdarcie]

matt smith is a fucking amazing doctor. he brings emotion into it too.

[1234invaderzimfan]

@awhdarcie he sucks balls like justin bieber

[awhdarcie]

@1234invaderzimfan lol

[BekahLynBLT]

This made me cry because it reminded me so much of the episode. In which i bawled my eyes out. David Tennant <3

[TimelordsandragonsCo]

river sent out a message to the world "the doctor is dying" and alex got it :)

[Mawok666]

@TimelordsandragonsCo as soon as she said that I thought of this song, its extra special now

[98SarawithnoH]

@TimelordsandragonsCo OH MY GOD! *MINDBLOWN*

[ZzZzAaAnNnNeEe]

Oh quit lying Alex. You are SO adressing a tiny audiance of smurfs!

[EdHardy2552]

When Smith says "Brilliant" my smile turns into a frown. And when he says Geronimo, I think Allons-y would fit so much better. Also the episode in season 6 when they were in the old control room I felt like something was missing. And how about in Let's Kill Hitler when he sees holograms of Rose, Martha & Donna?

I will always miss Tennant because he brought a special feeling into the show. A felling that is not there with Smith.

[EdHardy2552]

@beanyindividual So true! When Smith says "Brilliant" my smile turns into a frown. And when he says Geronimo, I think Allons-y would fit so much better.

[CaglaMorgan]

I love your tshirt. Banksy

[DOOMROCK438]

i prefer this to the one on the still got legs

[MsEXCLAMATIONPOINTS]

THE SMURFS! THEY SPEAK. Wow, i cant believe i'm saying this but if i had a choice i dont know if i would meet Alex Charlie or Matt smith... I KNOW i'll meet Matt Smith then i'll invite Alex over and tell him to bring Charlie!!!

[eleanorissocoollike1]

Am i the only one that loves it when alex gasps for breath at 3:20. :)

[UltimateMe123]

What guitar is he using?

[trouts4]

This song made me want to cry :( (IT'S GOOD THOUGH, IT REALLY IS)

[SIlverDragon99]

Could you please release this so I can download it?

[UltimateMe123]

@SIlverDragon99 It's on their album, Still got legs. It's not available for free download.

[ElevenandAmy]

Is he next to the Cabinet of Shame??? lol

[ToothpasteCannon]

At the end of the album version, there's an indecipherable string of words which people thought was old high Gallifreyan-- turns out, it's just "the Doctor is dying" backwards! Was I the only person who didn't figure that out?

[ashipod13]

22 people are anti david tennant

[SugarTits2kai11]

When David Tennant left, i was really upset and stopped watching Doctor Who, but i started watching it again and i have fell in love with Matt Smith, he's my Doctor and i love David but Matt is just.... The Doctor!

[HorseRidingLover1]

3:2o is it only me that thinks its so sweet when he gasps for air <3

[AlwaysPotterFan]

Someone just started twitter and they tweeted about Chameleon Circuit, i think the account looks really promising go follow @Nerd_Fighter. x

[Sportgrl55]

This has been on repeat for the last week. I love this song!!

[m3my531f1]

theres a super long piece of guitar string hanging from the guitar

[Daffuge]

A musical of Doctor Who done in the style of War of the Worlds, by Chameleon Circuit' would be a dream.

[MsChaChaCharlotte]

@Daffuge oh my god, YES!

[MudFirePrincess]

@bullet4mehvalentine *crys histarically* well thank you anyway

[AtakiriMizuyuki]

This might be my absolute favorite Chameleon Circuit song, and I'd love it if you included the acoustic version in the next CD--it's beautiful.

[OliveTheBreloom]

@beanyindividual

Happens to the best of us, go watch your favorite 10 episodes, or read fanfiction. That helps control the symptoms for a while, I can suggest a few great 10 fics if you want.

[MudFirePrincess]

@bullet4mehvalentine ... can you send me a link? i cannot find the full episodes... sorry, i'm challanged aperently...

[bullet4mehvalentine]

@MudFirePrincess Apparently if you live in the US you can't watch them on BBC |: And BBCAmerica doesn't have the episodes. Stupid America |:

[MudFirePrincess]

@bullet4mehvalentine THANK YOU! i'm on there now looking for it!!

[wagadonia]

I think they should have a second disc on the albums with the acoustic versions.

[G4MINGxPL4NET]

nope no smurfs, just a load of clapping at the end when they walk in

[ninjabunny30]

But I bet you WERE addressing a tiny audience of Smurfs.

[MudFirePrincess]

@bullet4mehvalentine The only problem is that they only have seasons 1-5. they're missing 6 and the new ep.s of 7

[bullet4mehvalentine]

@MudFirePrincess I've only seen like 10 episodes, so I would be fine with that haha. It's so interesting but I have no way to watch it in order so I don't know the full story line

[bullet4mehvalentine]

@MudFirePrincess If you go on BBC.com they have seasons 6 and 7 (:

[ACWNerdfighter]

This is amazing acoustic!

[MudFirePrincess]

@Master1Saxon0 okay I have now watched seasons 1-5 on netflix. IM ADICTED!

[bullet4mehvalentine]

@MudFirePrincess I need to get netflix. I can only watch Doctor Who when it's on BBC ):

[SoWhyAgain]

This actually makes me pretty sad...

[annaiscool12]

@SoWhyAgain i agree

[chuchu935]

Am I the only one wondering what's the note on the microwave's door?

[MyLIfeStudios]

the aribba at the end makes me think of " a song for willie " dftba
