Doctor Who - The Day of the Doctor - Murray Gold Intended Score Edit 

I know right? It's blasphemy that this was cut to put an awkwardly edited Majestic Tale.

I do hope there’s gonna be a gold cut (ha) rescored version of the episode in the whoniverse section! But one can dream

There's a new version coming today or tomorrow wait for it!

​@@OswinPondWHOOOOAAAA

Thank you! Day did have a tons of reference to the RTD era music wise. There's around 7 or 8 variations of "The Doctor's theme", 1 variation of Rose's theme, 3 variations of The Doctor Forever (Ten's theme), 1 variation of an old Waters of Mars track, 1 variation of Doomsday, multiple This is Gallifrey callbacks, The Dalek theme from Series 4 and even the Slitheen theme is in there! Some of them were cut and can only be found on the CD (or my edit!) but most of them are still in the episode. If I recall correctly Gold said Moffat made the changes because he loved I am the Doctor too much, but I'm not sure if that was exactly that. The production of the special was also quite rushed so it's possible they didn't enjoy some of the music and Gold didn't have time to do reshoot? Just a speculation.

@@OswinPond When is the Doomsday Variation?

@@Joseph-uo3mx I've never been able to make it fit during the episode sadly. The music track is called "The Fez And The Portal"

@@OswinPond Listening to it, it feels like it must have been intended to split it up over a few scenes with the portals because I can't place where else it could go

私はあなたがそれを好きうれしい！ 作るのに何年もかかりました！

Que des souvenirs!

They are all in the official album! It's just that they were cut from the episode itself and replaced with generic tracks like Wedding of River Song

And now I have to redo the whole thing. Thanks haha

@@OswinPondSorry to do this to you lol! just havent been able to let that one go since i heard it on the soundtrack

@@MysterySeeker Took me a while but I did it. Man thank you it works so much better than the OG track. Will upload a new version shortly

@@OswinPond Really excited to see your take on it! I attempted to splice it a couple of times, but I never got the timing right. Shame it was left out though, it always felt such a wonderful fit to me

@@MysterySeeker Really I thought it was one of the easiest to splice haha. Because you can time it using the "I am the Doctor" present in both the track and episode! Also I managed to include The Fez and the Portal finally, another cut track which featured a Pandorica, Doomsday and Doctor's theme variation, that one was so hard to make it fit

Not dumb at all! The intended tracks are on the CD. I removed the music from the episode for those scenes and replaced it with the intended ones from the official album. As to how I knew, they are mostly obvious. For exemple "Song For Four - Home" is obviously played over the 4th Doctor appearance and 11th's speech about his home. I had to play with it to make it synched perfectly but it was fairly straightforward since after all the musics were composed for the scenes.

I agree, it's the two that really should have stayed in. They fit so well and work so much better than what we got in the episodes. Both thematically and editing wise

@@OswinPond Personally, I would have used The Runaway Bride variation of The Doctor Forever when 10 departed, it would have fit perfectly there as opposed to The Leaf.

All of them were cut down. None of them are in the episode, but you might be remembering them from the CD album!

Thanks for the comment! Really disagree there, especially for those two examples because I noticed something was wrong with them in the Broadcast version before even knowing they were not intended. For "We Are the Doctors" I find the crescendo much more compelling. There's an actual build up to the Doctors moving. The track starts slow, just like the frozen painting and the more the painting starts to move the faster the track gets, it's just superb. In the Broadcast they just used A Christmas Carol OST then "Majestic Tale" appears without build-up or fanfare, you lose some of the epicness of the scene. And then during the slowdown match (which sadly I couldn't show in the video for copyright purposes), using the end of "I am the Doctor" just feels a bit simple / comical and doesn't really match what we see on the screen. "We Are the Doctor" fits so much better with how epic it is. And it also saves you from having 3 different tracks tackled into the scene with questionable editing. For "Song for Four", I've always found the use of Wedding of River's theme completely inappropriate. I remember being so confused in the theatre when I saw this "Is River gonna show up?" lol. On top of that when they're talking about Gallifrey you actually hear the Earthly / Human Wedding theme that you hear in many movies, or IRL and it just feels so wrong since the scene is not connected to any wedding in any way. Plus I find "Song for Four" much more hopeful with the use of acoustic Guitar instead of the long sad strings of "Wedding of River Song". I do agree about the dreamy sequence at the end, it honestly work better in the episode, but then "Majestic Tale" shows up and it just doesn't work, the editing feels choppy and ending the last shot with the end of "I am the Doctor" is again a bit too simple / comical for me, whereas "Home" ends on a triumphant note that concludes the episode perfectly! And just like "We are the Doctor", it also saves you from having 3 different tracks tackled into the scene with questionable editing. But it's all subjective of course :p

@@OswinPond Oh I absolute agree with some of those, I do like how Murray gave The Curator his own theme (and the Synths are a nice touch since the 4th Doctor’s Era primarily used it) and the further use of This is Gallifrey was indeed far more fitting. As for the ending bit, I do agree that the ending is a bit abrupt as the scene just kinda fades and the music just abruptly ends, I do wish that Gold found a way to have the Score end with a more satisfying sting. As for the editing, I do find the ending shot a bit awkward though its mostly due to the fact that its clear most of the Doctors are just pasted on there and they either look dead inside or (the few that are actually there) just stand awkwardly, I feel like a pan up towards Gallifrey with some small final few notes from the Score would have been more impactful.

​@@caderen5624 Good call for the synths! When i was talking about the edit I was talking about the score edit where they just glue tracks together, but you're right the actual edit is also quite mediocre in those scenes lol (especially the painting scene)

To be fair, had they used the full original score as intended, you probably wouldn't be saying that as the replacement tracks used are so synonymous with the actual episode it makes it weird hearing the original, intended tracks in its place.
