The Alternative Doctor Who theme music video
Uploaded by: ReverseThePolarity
Video Description:
What if...we never heard of the genius of Delia Derbyshire, Peter Howell, or even Murray Gold. What if the Dr Who themes we all grew up to love were by different people. This is a video displaying how the released unofficial Doctor Who themes have changed throughout the decades.
This video is a sequel for all those wonderful people who loved my 'Ultimate Doctor Who title mix'. Almost all of the video is the same as the aforementioned title mix, but I tried to make it more interesting by including different material from the 1st and 2nd Dr's title sequence tests, and a dif
ferent colour approach for the video's conclusion. As I'm a fan of the Doctor Who theme as well as the programme, I often collect unofficial theme releases as well as the official ones. So I thought it would be fun to create a video showing the unofficial face and sound of Doctor Who through theme
music covers by Compilation albums and Bands like Orbital, who are fans of the programme. I've used ten different arrangements of the theme, looking for as many different variations as I could find. I'm aware there are a few more out there, a couple of which I have, but I tried to reflect the best
ones in the video. Hope you enjoy it! P.S. There's been many requests as to what each theme version is, so I decided to permanently list them in the description here. They are as follows: 1st Dr - Dr. Who - Eric Winstone & His Orchestra
2nd Dr - Dr. Who - Don Harper's Homo Electronicus 3rd Dr - "Who is the Doctor" - Sung by Jon Pertwee, Theme performed by Rupert Hine 4th Dr - Dr. Who - Geoff Love & His Orchestra
late 4th Dr/5th Dr - Dr.Who: Cosmic Remix - Mankind 6th Dr - Doctor Who: Terror Version - Dominic Glynn 7th Dr - Doctorin' the TARDIS (Instrumental) - The Timelords/The KLF 8th Dr - Dr.Who - Mark Ayres 9th Dr - Dr.Who - The London Theatre Orchestra 10th Dr - Doctor? - Orbital

| I think that each theme represents that Doctor (eg. Colin Baker was loud and expressive, just like the piece you played over his titles) |

| Well done, ty 4 compiling such a good selection of themes. Makes you think though, how many versions of the theme are out there? Made by both professional and those by those who do it in their free time. |

| Very good. Your editing is excellent as always, but this one lacks the energy of your other video, I think. Your first was fantastic, the way it constantly built with each new version. This, not as great, but still quite good. |

| beautiful music (i like the original better though) and beautiful series. the new one i think has unfortunately killed some of its grandeur by making it excessively focused on rather pathetic relationships and having not-so-good actors. |

| Great fun. Loved the Pertwee song! I've just had a crazy idea. Now you need to do a mix of Dr Who titles to Ron Grainer's other themes from other shows. (e.g. The Prisoner, Steptoe and Son, Man in a Suitcase, etc.) Now that would be weird but worth seeing! |
