Murray Gold was brilliant -- as always -- to embed in the theme of Gallifrey the sound of a ticking clock.

This is madness!

No, this is GALLIFREY!

@donatist59 Christ how could I have been so thick by not noticing that? You sir, are a genius. Kudos to you.

@CaraMariw It's certainly possible that we might eventually achieve a level of technological ability to be considered (and known as) The Lords of Time, however, if such a thing does come to pass then great caution must me taken to avoid a real world version of the Last Great Time War turning us into the sort of monsters who would sacrifice the entirety of existence to save themselves. For reference see Wikipedia: The End of Time (Doctor Who)

@neodarlek what if we are the timelords???

@xesolor Well, yeah. But the reason animals don't generally do that sort of damage is because they CAN'T - they work on instinct, they don't have much deeper moral sense guiding them, their emotions aren't nearly as varied as those of humans. It's because we're so intelligent that we can be so horrible - we make that choice because we're equipped to. Animals are just far, far less complex than we are.

@neodarlek That's what I've always thought. And I do hope it's true. Oh, I do hope.

@postnuevo I wouldn't exactly describe it as post romantic either., it has sense of power and epicness to it, and still sounds saddening, and reminds me of loss. Which is exactly what this song was meant for in the show, The Doctor remembering/discussing The Time Lords, a mighty race, yet practically heart(s) broken (hehe), from what he had done. Just my opinion though, I'm very tired right now also so sorry if it sounds like pointless dribble.

@postnuevo I'm big fan of the original Doctor Who serials myself, and in some ways your right, it is very different, but that is the good thing about Doctor Who and The Doctor. They are always changing, The way they used the Time War to explain the hiatus between the original and modern series had a big impact on the style of the show. As it would for anyone, they have made The Doctor much more emotional from whatever may of happened in The Time War and they use the music to reflect it.

@soundwavepulsecorp That would be SO much more epic if there was grammar.

[postnuevo]

OK, I listened again to it and looked at the graffiti images. I was wrong. It doesn't suck, but it certainly is post-romantic trite that cannot begin to compare with the original Dr. Who early pioneering electronic music or sophisticated story lines. Clearly this is not the same Dr. Who audience or fans. Hence my question, is this really Dr. Who???
