The Duchess and the Sailor (Ben/Polly fanmix)

Jun 14, 2009 00:03

Influenced by riverdresses's "The Great & Mighty Troughton Rewatch-athon", I decided to explore my music folder again and returned with enough songs for a Ben/Polly fanmix.
As with the Zoe mix, I tried to combine the message in the lyrics with the style of the songs, this time by trying to use songs from Ben and Polly's own time period. Only a few of them are ( Read more... )

*ganks with thanks* Brilliant idea! Nothing like some period music to get the Ben/Polly writing mojo going (doesn't hurt that they are good songs either *g*)...

Thank you! I know just what you mean, as I tend to listen to music that I feel relates to the characters or situation while I write.

Totally snagging! I'm currently making a similar fanmix, actually.

Ooh, looking forward to hearing it, then! The more Ben & Polly, the merrier.

I love your mixes so much! Downloading this and the Zoe mix, since apparently I was gone when you posted that? x3

I hope you enjoy them, my dear. Let me know if the Zoe mix needs re-uploading, though I think it might still be active.

They're lovely!
And yes, it was still active. ^__^

Ben and Polly!! Man, it's been ages since I ever saw them on Dr Who reruns. I did read the "lost adventures" with them, though. :) Thanks for the mix!

There is one complete story of them left, so unless you get your hands on the recons for the others it's nearly impossible to find them, which is a shame.
Enjoy the mix!

Just wanted to say, I've been enjoying the mix a lot. :) I love that you used contemporary (for them) songs instead of more recent tunes. I hadn't heard most of these before and I really love most of them. So thank you again for making this mix. :)

Aw, thank you! I'm a huge fan of '60s music, so I had a lot of fun browing through my music folders in search of contemporary songs that would fit well with Ben and Polly.
