'''"Abigail's Song"''' was a song that [[Abigail Pettigrew]] once sang at the [[Eleventh Doctor]]'s insistence.  Because of the perfection of her voice, she was able to use the melody to resonate the fog crystals in the skies above [[Sardicktown]].  This, in turn, unlocked the clouds, created snow and allowed an endangered [[spaceship (A Christmas Carol)|spaceship]] — carrying a [[honeymoon]]ing [[Amy Pond]] and [[Rory Williams]] — to land safely on [[Ember (planet)|Ember]]. ([[DW]]: ''[[A Christmas Carol (TV story)|A Christmas Carol]]'')

As with [[DW]]: ''[[The Gunfighters (TV story)|The Gunfighters]]{{'}}'' "[[The Ballad of the Last Chance Saloon]]", it is not just [[diegetic]], but actually vital to the plot.
