Song For Ten

Song For Ten is a song written for the second series of the revived Doctor Who by composer Murray Gold. It was originally recorded by Tim Phillips but was re-recorded for the first Doctor Who soundtrack by Neil Hannon. The song is played during the scene in which the newly-regenerated tenth Doctor browses the TARDIS wardrobe for his defining outfit. The lyrics directly reference the events of The Christmas Invasion and the series finale Doomsday, as well as the Doctor's feelings towards his then companion Rose Tyler.
