y'all, this is not okay

fandom is not supposed to make me cry like a sappy little baby.

but when it's this beautiful, i cannot help it.

Wow. Seriously beautiful. That's some of my favourite score music ever, and to see it put together by fans like that is just lovely. I love fandom.

Yeah, Murray Gold is a treasure. DW fandom can't seem to agree on much, but I've never heard anyone do anything but gush over him.

It took me a full minute to realize this was a long-distance collaborative effort. Oh look my eyes are wet...

For some reason, the long-distance stuff just makes me want to sob my eyes out. And when it's fandom long-distance stuff, I am just an emotional mess.

It's validating,isn't it? The idea that we fans aren't just parasites mooching off other peoples' intellectual property, but capable of creating exquisite works of art.

That and everyone recording in their living rooms in everyday clothes. The sublime coming out of the apparently mundane.

Oh, yes! Yes indeed!

I don't think I have ever been able to listen to the Doomsday theme and not well up. It's just so visceral. And this video is beautiful.

Murray Gold is such a talented, talented man. And I love seeing these people playing his music.

I was very close to crying, and I'm in the econ department right now. Held it together, barely. Listening over and over - check.

It leaves me an emotional mess.
