Doctor Who Sings - 4 Chords

Every now and then, a more unusual song will catch our eye, and the sudden urge to make it becomes irresistible. That’s exactly what happened when we were recently reminded of “4 Chords” by The Axis of Awesome, and so we got to work! We decided to mash up the viral 2009 version of the song with the official 2011 performance on their UA-cam channel, to create a mash-upped mash-up! On top of that, we thought it would be fun to add in some songs more familiar to Doctor Who fans, be that because they were popular songs used in the show… or maybe because they were written and, perhaps, even performed in the show itself!
This video has been a huge undertaking, and we appreciate your patience as we’ve worked on it. Below is the complete list of all 46 songs and their artists (we recommend watching the video before reading further to not spoil some special surprises!):
