ABIGAIL'S SONG

Murray Gold takes a lot of heat for the way his music overwhelms some of the scenes in 'Doctor Who', and on occasion, rightfully so. But the themes he came up with for the Eleventh Incarnation of the Doctor have been - as the Ninth would say - fantastic; very catchy stuff.

And for "A Christmas Carol", there's the added bonus of the beautiful and haunting "Abigail's Song" which could charm the fish in the fog - luckily for 4003 people on board that starliner.




And the lyrics may also hold a clue to the overall arc to the next season of the series.....

When you're alone, silence is all you see.
When you're alone, silence is all you'll be.
Give me your hand and come to me.

When you are here, music is all around.
When you are near, music is all around.
Open your eyes, don't make a sound.

Let in the shadow, let in the shadow,
Let in the light of your bright shadow.

Let in the shadow, let in the shadow.
Let in the light of your bright shadow.

Thanks to the Whovian Net for the lyrics......
