Oh, look, it is actually Tuesday and I am posting this on the proper day. Go me. This is more of a general Doctor vid, Nine, Ten, and Eleven, with all of the companions. It basically is one of the saddest things I've seen though. It just makes me want to hug the poor man. He really has had some horrible things happen to him. Of course half of them are brought on by his own poor choices. The vid is by Liisakee.
Tuesday Tears--All of Me
Jun. 18th, 2014 09:36 pmYes, I know it is Thursday, but I found this vid by xMemoryLanex3 several weeks ago and I keep forgetting to actually post it on a Tuesday. This one really reminds me of how bittersweet the relationship was between the Doctor and Rose, both with Nine and Ten. This one doesn't just make me sad, it has moments of light as well, but predominantly it makes me weepy, so it qualifies. And I really, really love this song.
Tuesday Tears
Feb. 12th, 2014 12:21 amOkay, it's a little after midnight and it's not technically Tuesday anymore, but so what. I found a good one.
I should be back posting again tomorrow. I had a bad week. Patricia died. Then Sweetie Belle died. Hence the trolling of youtube for tearjerker Doctor/Rose vids to make me feel...better. Yeah, I'm like that.
Today's vid rec is by xMemoryLanex and is a lovely AU vid of Ten/Rose with cameos by Eleven and the War!Doctor.

It's been a while since I've hit on a vid that felt poignant enough to do a Tuesday Tears rec. This one is short but it definitely tugs on the heart strings. The melody is haunting and Eleven's angst is always nice to see. I love it when he is so clearly missing Rose on the show, but it's rare. Fortunately it is less rare in vids.
Vid Rec: Never Forget by Veritaserumuk
Feb. 5th, 2013 09:22 pmOkay, I'm cheating a little this week, because this isn't a completely "tear your heart out of your chest and stomp on it, leave you bawling with snot streams" vid. It is more of a "tremendously stirring, slightly scary, devastatingly sad and epic, makes you want to write reunion fic, don't even tell me they weren't completely and utterly in love with and devoted to each other" vid. So I think that counts.
I haven't seen a song match the spirit of the Doctor and Rose in a long time. The clips went brilliantly with the song, and though I don't generally like it when the singers/band are included with the Doctor and Rose, this time it doesn't detract from the impact, it adds to it. Like these two singers are pouring out their hearts simply for the relationship that is Doctor/Rose. Also less common clips were used, a lot from Tooth and Claw and The Impossible Planet/The Satan Pit. Of course Doomsday but the better ones. The editing was wonderful.

Does This Darkness Have a Name?
Dec. 18th, 2012 07:17 pmI thought this poem particularly apt for the events of the past week.
Does this darkness have a name?
This cruelty, this hatred.
How did it find us?
Did it steal into our lives or did we seek it out and embrace it?
What happened to us that we now send our children into the world like we send young men to war, hoping for their safe return, but knowing some will be lost along the way?
When did we lose our way?
Consumed by the shadows, swallowed whole by the darkness.
Does this darkness have a name?
...is it your name?

Vid Rec 10.5/Rose, Eleven/Rose
Dec. 11th, 2012 03:21 pmI really like this one because it reminds me somewhat of the story Both http://wishiknewwho.livejournal.com/5651.html by
wishiknewwho except that in the vid it is Eleven, Rose, and 10.5, instead of Ten. I'm not really much of a one for reading fic where Rose cheats on one Doctor with the other, but that fic is so well done it gets me past that. Ditto the vid.
It was put together very well and the storyline is clear without reading the description, which I really like in a vid. It made me tear up, too, so not really like other vids with Rose and Eleven. I also like that many of the clips were not the stock ones always used in practically every vid out there that has these three in it. Some of them were, but so many less than in other vids it was particularly noticeable. It didn't feel like watching the same thing cut and repolished like can so often be the case. Vidder is carbuncle22.

Vid Rec: She'll Never Be You
Oct. 9th, 2011 03:18 pmI really liked this vid and thought I'd share. It's an Eleven/Rose vid with River, and it's basically having the Eleventh Doctor remember Rose and thinking that River will never be Rose. It's not in any way a bashing video, though, and it was very well done, made my heart strings tug a bit, you know? It's edited in such a way as to show Eleven having far more emotion than you usually see on him. The person did a great job with that. It's by eighttimesacharm.
