Love Don't Roam

Love Don't Roam is a song from the early 21st Century written by Murray Gold and recorded by Neil Hannon. The song is played at the wedding reception for Donna Noble, and its lyrics, coupled with the sight of a young blonde dancing, sparks a brief, but intense memory in the the Doctor of recently-lost Rose Tyler. (DW: The Runaway Bride)

Behind the Scenes
"Love Don't Roam" was the second original song commissioned for the revived Doctor Who series, and the first to appear "diegetically" (that is, it is heard by the characters and plays a part of the scene). It was released on the Series One and Two soundtrack album (although it technically appears in Series Three and other music from The Runaway Bride would be released on the Series Three soundtrack album). A second version of the song was performed by Gary Williams during the Music and Monsters special concert in late 2006.
