I firmly believe that the song "The Fool on the Hill" by the Beatles would make an amazing Dr.Who vid.

I think the lyrics could be reinterpreted to a great Dr. vid, maybe even a multi-Dr. vid rather than just Tennant. Maybe I should try and get this for next sweet charity, because I am not a vidder myself or else I would so be on making that. I'm posting the lyrics so I can remember this idea later. Italics is my commentary to myself, what I think the connections are.

the Fool on the Hill:
 
Day after day,
Alone on a hill, (lonely Dr. classic)
The man with the foolish grin is keeping perfectly still (Tennant and his crazy grin!)
But nobody wants to know him,
They can see that he's just a fool,
And he never gives an answer, (to the question "who are you?")

But the fool on the hill,
Sees the sun going down,
And the eyes in his head, (If only I had a Merlin eye shine)
See the world spinning 'round. (Insert classic Who vid Tardis shot here)

Well on the way,
Head in a cloud, (gleeful Dr. companion moment?)
The man of a 1000 voices talking perfectly loud (Regeneration)
But nobody ever hears him, (something about nobody ever listening to him until it is too late)
Or the sound he appears to make,
And he never seems to notice, (continues on despite lack of appreciation)

But the fool on the hill,
Sees the sun going down,
And the eyes in his head,
See the world spinning 'round.

And nobody seems to like him, (Evil aliens)
They can tell what he wants to do, (Save the world)
And he never shows his feelings, (This I know is already the basis of multiple vids)

But the fool on the hill,
Sees the sun going down, (code for 'sees the apocalypse coming')
And the eyes in his head,
See the world spinning 'round.

Ooh, ooh,
Round and round and round.

And he never listens to them,
He knows that they're the fools
They don't like him,

The fool on the hill
Sees the sun going down,
And the eyes in his head,
See the world spinning 'round.

Ooh,
Round and round and round


Anyways, that's my thoughts. Does anybody else see the connection or is it just me and my IB critical analysis brainwashing?

I have not forgotten you guys, and if I ever got well-versed enough in Classic Who, I would totally make this for you. I actually think there are some scenes from Silence in the Library that would work really well for this, but you know all the Doctors should totally be in this.

You rock, I knew you just had a lot of real-life and computer stuff to sort out before vidding could start up again. :)
I need to watch more Classic Who too, so far I've only just started watching the Tom Baker stuff.
