Okay but… I feel like Carol Woods’ version of this song for this movie never got the recognition it deserved. I can listen to this song 20 times in a row and every single time, her voice will make me cry. My entire fking soul is transported somewhere else. I would honestly say that hearing her sing this is the only time I understand spirituality, it’s that beautiful and I feel like the world can barely contain it. I would go to church if church was just Carol Woods singing this song, it might make me believe in god. When she hits “I wake up to the sound of music” I could die right then and die happy.

Top five time travel movies/books! :D
See, the trouble is that while I love time travel as a concept, I haven't actually explored the genre that much. I haven't watched/read most of the time travel stories out there, sometimes because I just haven't gotten to it, other times because I'm very picky about content, other times because most of the time travel stories I run across are either "we're a bureaucratic agency dedicated to policing time travel" or "oh, no, what if we change history?" or "I fell in love with a hunky Highlander", none of which are the parts of time travel stories that interest me.
The most accurate version of this list would be a list of Doctor Who episodes (and maybe some Star Trek ones), but you specified movies and books, which is going to make this a much more difficult list to create.
The Day of the Doctor: Haha, I cheated, because Day of the Doctor was released in theaters, which makes it a movie! (So I can use it as a stand-in for all the Doctor Who episodes that are my favorite time travel stories). Thankfully, it's a fantastic time travel story and one of my favorites. It's a genius blend of both "stable timeline" and "changeable timeline" mechanics. Three different interweaving timelines. References to A Christmas Carol. Changing major events in the show's past without changing the timeline that resulted from them at all. A rejection once and for all of the "ends justify the means" mindset that had lingered over the reboot for too long. A masterpiece.
A Christmas Carol by Charles Dickens: It's the classic Christmas story for a reason--and one of those reasons is the time travel. Going with Scrooge across decades of his own life and watching him undergo character development from that is a great use of time travel. (And there happens to be a great Doctor Who version, too!)
Star Trek: First Contact: It's fun when you get characters traveling from the future to a different time that's also in the future. Love all the worldbuilding details of these characters interacting with their past/our fictional future, and it's a pretty good story.
Shadowhand by Anne Elisabeth Stengl: The Tales of Goldstone Wood series has a structure unlike any I've ever seen in fantasy, and this book is the reason. The first three books in the series are in chronological order. The next two books are prequels that take place like a thousand years earlier. This book, the sixth, involves characters from the later time period time-traveling to meet characters from the earlier time period, and getting swept up in a legend that they've known since childhood. I remember very little about the book beyond that, but it's such a cool concept (with an unforgettable ending moment) that I have to put it on the list.
Love Strikes Twice: It's one of the very rare Hallmark movies that's actually a decent movie by normal movie standards, so I have to give it credit. Instead of the usual boring time travel plot of "oh no, what if we change history?", we get someone who's trying to change history, who does change history, and it's a good thing. The time travel mechanics surrounding that make no sense, but who cares? It's a fun story with an engaging cast, legitimately funny jokes, a sweet romance, and a solid plot.
#answered asks#time travel#doctor who#star trek#the tales of goldstone wood#a christmas carol#love strikes twice#this ask did prompt me to pick up 'to say nothing of the dog' again#i couldn't remember why i abandoned it#a quick search of the ebook proves that the language i thought was a deal-breaker wasn't in it#so i'm giving it another shot#i may abandon it in the same place who knows but at least it's worth a try#also fun fact#the other day i saw a hallmark movie on in the background#i saw one scene and was like 'huh this looks like a higher-quality production than usual'#looked it up and learned that it was another time travel story written by the writer of no. 5#and i was like 'man am i good at identifying these'#so as soon as i decide to spend a hoopla credit on it i am going to watch another fun silly time travel romance

Took my small cousin to the park to practice scootering and I have to say taking a recorder with me was an inspired choice. Things you can do to entertain yourself and also be able to keep track of what's happening!
(and portability was the Whole Reason I decided to pick up recorder again, proof of concept right here!)
#still my uncle's that I'm borrowing but I have bought 2 recorders online which should come to me reasonably soon#both are good quality plastic although I might get a wooden one if I find myself wanting to play more#but at the moment I had a budget for good plastic and apparently good plastic is better than cheap wood#rowena adventures#recorder#mum and I just played tunes by ear - folk songs and carol tunes - and one my cousin requested from his school singing#(frankly we wouldn't have been able to pick up the tune if I hadn't also known it)

The Holly and the Ivy
Just a Christmas Day strum-and-drum-along at home in Norfolk celebrating this perfect blend of pagan and Christian in one carol.
The holly and the ivy When they are both full grown Of all trees that are in the wood The holly bears the crown [Refrain:] O, the rising of the sun And the running of the deer The playing of the merry organ Sweet singing in the choir The holly bears a blossom As white as lily flow'r And Mary bore sweet Jesus Christ To be our dear Saviour [Refrain] The holly bears a berry As red as any blood And Mary bore sweet Jesus Christ To do poor sinners good [Refrain] The holly bears a prickle As sharp as any thorn And Mary bore sweet Jesus Christ On Christmas Day in the morn
