The Blue Box (August Swanston song)

WORK IN PROGRESS

The Blue Box (He travels Time and Space with) is a song co-written by English composer August Swanson and performed by Jason Paige. It was released on June 10, 2022, by New World Records and Brenner and Meller Records. Written by English rock musician Peter Gabriel and August Swanston, and featuring the London Philharmonic Choir, the song is primarily a mash-up of the Doctor Who theme music, "Uprising" by Muse, and "Rock and Roll (Part Two)" by Gary Glitter with sections from "Gimme! Gimme! Gimme!" by ABBA.

The single was initially intended as both an inside joke by the production team of a parodic doctor who episode called The Trenches of Anthrosaki and also as a lyrical rendition of the show's theme music that would've played in the credits. The single was received by critics but was not a commercial success, standing at number 87 in the United states and New Zealand singles charts, and only reaching 76 in the United Kingdom, Belgium, and the rest of Europe.
