He's done it to me again - the 11th Doctor's Theme has been stuck in my head for a week now. 
Damn You, Murray Gold!

It's stuck in my head too. Quite a catchy tune.
It's been stuck in my head since "The Eleventh Hour" as well and I too thought this was news on the specials soundtrack. Methinks we are not going to get any news on a score until after series five has concluded.
It is an excellent piece of music, some of Gold's best work imo.
Are you referring to this one?

It turns up periodically after the "I've got 20 minutes to save the Earth" bit, but is most prominent in the scenes leading up to and on the hospital roof.
So far, that's my favorite passage from Gold's work for Series 5.
The neverending beat. It's constantly in my head!
The theme is officially/unofficially "The Doctor's Theme" for the eleventh doctor.
Search around youtube for other unofficial music(until the soundtrack) like "Amy's theme"

Love that. Kinda makes you wish Murray would have the chance to write a theme for each Doctor (although Tom Baker already has that little nine note tune that popped up during seasons 16-17)
That is a great piece of music, and it plays really well over the montage of past Doctors. It's probably also going to turn off a lot in the trailers as it has that "All Those Strange Strange Creatures" vibe to it.
I feel sad for the folks who absolutely hate Gold's music. As far as I'm concerned his music is the 4th lead character in the series, after the Doctor, the companion, and the TARDIS. He's the only soundtrack composer whose albums I can listen to repeatedly, unlike most of the others whose incidental music for TV too often is unmemorable muzak.

I didn't like most of his work on the first couple of series, but since then he has improved a lot, not to mention the overly loud incidental music which often drowned out dialogue was toned down by then - helps me appreciate it more when it's not so intrusive.
Heh, it really is quite good. I sat listening to it repeatedly last night.
And thanks to that link, even more today!

The theme I'll admit that I've warmed up to since I first heard it.
