When we arrive
Sons & daughters
We'll make our homes on the water
We'll build our walls aluminum
We'll fill our mouths with cinnamon now
These currents pull us 'cross the border
Steady your boats
Arms to shoulder
'till tides will pull
our hull aground
Making this cold harbour now home
Take up your arm
Sons and daughters
We will arise from the bunkers
By land, by sea, by dirigible
We'll leave our tracks untraceable now
When we arrive
Sons and daughters
We'll make our homes on the water
We'll build our walls aluminum
We'll fill our mouths with cinnamon now
(We'll fill our mouths with cinnamon now)
When we arrive
Sons and daughters
We'll make our homes on the water
We'll build our walls aluminum
(Sons and daughters)
We'll fill our mouths with cinnamon
(We'll make our homes on the water)
We'll make our homes on the water
(When we build our walls of aluminum)
(We'll fill our mouths with cinnamon)
Hear all the bombs fade away (x20)

Ah, gotta love this song.

@Celdoir You can use adblock to keep the ads off, including in the video
-
@Veggieburger802 It's just the only song that can pull it off lad
-
@Celdoir live with the ads. these days, its the only thing that keeps youtube alive. think about it. do you know how many videos get uploaded each second which never reach 50 views yet take up millions of gigabytes of storage? lots of them. i dont know how many videos there are on youtube, but its a huge number, and it grows daily. without ads, youtube has no way of generating income, and it would probably not exist anymore.
-
@jacobthelioneater Agreed, but you do have to give a little slack seeing as they were fumbling around trying to resurrect a legend. Understandbly, it would take them a bit to get into the groove of the series.

@TheFlameingBurito My first doctor was the 9th doctor. Not that he was a bad actor, but Rose was the worst companion ever because the only things she did was screw up. The writing back then was also really shoddy, and the episodes were often lame.
-
@jacobthelioneater Eh, that may be true but David was my first Doctor, so when I think Doctor Who, the first one I think of is ten. Then a little parade of suspenders and bowties come in and then I'm like "oh yeah! You're awesome too!"
Also, I screamed like a little fangirl when I saw David in Fright Night. Off topic, but I felt I needed to put that out there. :)
-
@TheFlameingBurito There's a doctor who discussion on a decemberists video and I'm not yet involved?
IMO Matt Smith fits the role of a more crazy - more eccentric - doctor, bowtie and all. While David also tried to play an eccentric doctor, he didn't fit the role as much as the young Matt Smtih. Thats why I prefer #11.

@frithar Ah, for me it's a tie between 10 and 11. As much as I love fezs and bow ties, I can't give up my love for David's Doctor. They are both fantastic... no? :D

It's sad that you are making money off of music that is not yours.

@TheWhiteTrashNetwork I don't make a dime off of this. It's copy written material so I can't claim it's mine, and thus, I make no money on it. Youtube puts ads on the video once it reaches X number of views. Since I don't own all the rights to the video, I can't take the ads off either.

@Celdoir I have inserted my foot in my mouth and my own arse. I am sorry for jumping to conclusions. I saw the ad and just assumed. I hope you will accept my apology. :)

@TheWhiteTrashNetwork No worries. I hate the ads as much as everyone else. Why won't they all just go away? >.<
