Doctor/Master: The Musical

[anadapta0801.livejournal.com]

Don't let the title mislead you; there isn't a stage production of Who (although that does apparently exist) behind the link.
It's a pseudo-musical, or rather a playlist (because that hasn't been done before). A really long playlist with a narrative structure and at least one D/M song for every era. So yes, it's 'Doctor/Master: The Musical' if musicals were generally overlong barely cohesive melanges taken from a really narrow spectrum of bands.

Preview:
 
 

Tracks:

Intro: 
   1. 10 Seconds to Midnight  (The Divine Comedy)
The one that backpedals 907 years through time and space.
 
Academy: 
   2. Love You Much Better (The Hush Sound)
In which Time Lords are besotted/ jealous/ oblivious. 
 
   3. To Die a Virgin (The Divine Comedy)
Self-explanatory. Who's singing it to whom is another matter entirely.

   4. Regeneration (The Divine Comedy)
Oh come on, it's called Regeneration.

One: 
   5. White Blank Page (Mumford & Sons)
Doctor gets hitched, Master gets angry. 

   6.What He Wrote (Laura Marling)
Doctor buggers off, thinks epistolatory correspondence is a good idea. Master disagrees. 
 
Two: 
   7.Do You Know Me (Babyshambles)
The ultimate War Chief/Two reunion song, in terms of lyrics anyway.  
 
Three: 
   8.Medicine Man* (The Hush Sound)
M to D. Anything I could say about this and the next one has already been said. Their suitability is obvious.
 
   9.Honey* (The Hush Sound) 
  
   10.I Like (The Divine Comedy)
Quite alarmingly perfect lyrics, here, pretty much sums up Doctor/Master entirely.  

  Three/Four Interlude: 
   11.Goodbye England (Covered In Snow) (Laura Marling)
Nice mellow end to the exiled-to-Earth era, in which Three appears to turn into Four during the bridge.  
 
Four: 
   12.After The Storm (Mumford & Sons)
Master has angst, paradoxically also hope.
 
   13.Death of a Supernaturalist (The Divine Comedy)
Yes, a Crispy/Four song exists. Fear it. 
 
Five: 
   14.Psycho Killer - Acoustic (Talking Heads)
The 'Master's back and looks like he's going to gnaw my head off' song, with highly appropriate French. Think of it as a duet. 
 
   15.Gentlemen & Players (The Duckworth Lewis Method)
Five explains cricket. Poorly.  
 
Five/Six Interlude:
   16.Blackberry Stone (Laura Marling)
aka the 'I Immolated my Boyfriend Blues' 
 
Six: 
   17.Do You Want To** (Franz Ferdinand)
M to D. If there's a better scenery-chewing song, I know not of it.
Crack alternative:True Colours (Karen Harding) 
 
Seven: 
   18.The Cave (Mumford & Sons)
In which Seven is all determined and devoted and such. 

Seven/Eight Interlude: 
   19.The Future** (Leonard Cohen)
In which there is a War Comin'. Is the auditory equivalent of a man in a dirty mac, but a neat little sadist!Master song.
 
Eight: 
   20.Sticks and Stones (The Divine Comedy)
"You and I/ go together/ like the molar/ and the drill" says it all, really.
  
   21.When The War Came (The Decemberists)
In which the Daleks ruin everyone's fun.
 
Nine: 
   22.The Nightwatchman (The Duckworth Lewis Method)
In which Nine is alone.
  
   23.The Wrong Place at the Wrong Time (Carter the Unstoppable Sex Machine)
In which Nine will not be messing with the space-time continuum, thank you very much.
 
Ten: 
   24.Here I Dreamt I Was An Architect* (The Decemberists)
Oh yes, a pocketwatched!Yana song. All bases are covered here. 
  
   25.Don't Look Down (The Divine Comedy)
Compare the last minute and a half to the final act of LotTL. You know which bit.  
  
   26.Winning the War (Carter the Unstoppable Sex Machine)
In which winning is no fun at all.
  
  
    27.Viva la Vida* (Coldplay)
In which Ring!Master blames the Doctor.

Ten/Eleven Interlude: 
28. Torn (Babyshambles)
The 'don't you dare choose him over us' one, but also a good regeneration-trauma bit.
 
Eleven: 
   29.Geronimo (The Divine Comedy)
In which conspicuously-absent!Master is jealous of Eleven palling it up with the Ultimate Ginge.
 
Finale: 
   30.Hurricane (The Hush Sound)
The one that's all 'you won't leave me alone but I'm not sure I mind'.

P.S. That's a lot of The Divine Comedy, isn't it. I have no excuse for that.
P.P.S. The best thing is that it's logically repeating if you play it on a loop. Like Finnegans Wake.
