252 daisies and roses for D/J:"Cause she made him speechless and he made her nervous"
Welcome to the Dawson Leery and Joey Potter appreciation thread!
A little intro about our couple: who they are and what they mean to each other. Thanx Coolcat200 for this review (about Coda, episode 423) that explains, so beatifully, what D/J are: True North It's there. Theres no doubt. But what is it? Its undefinable and yet its unmistakable the thickening of the air when Joey and Dawson share a scene. Is it chemistry? Joey and Pacey have chemistry, but its not like what she has with Dawson. Its something different its something more. Ive never been one to go in for the whole soul mate thing, but I think it fits. These two people are part of each other extensions of each other. No matter where they go or whom they are with, they will always come back together because one cant survive without the other. Joey said that Dawson is her magic. She loved, maybe still loves, Pacey but the magic faded. Love alone wasnt enough to sustain them. But with Dawson, after everything they have been through, the magic still flows. Dawson wasnt thanking Spielberg. The director wasnt the most prolific influence in his life. He didnt shape Dawson and make him the man he is today Joey did that. Theres no doubt that they love each other and that they always will. But it more than that. Its about finding someone whose life is so intrinsically linked to your own that you dont know where you end and they begin and not only being okay with that, but also craving it. Its about finding someone who is so much a part of you that you cant imagine who you would be without them. Its about knowing a person so well that even when the walls are up you see right through them. And no matter where they go from here, Dawson and Joey are that for each other and they always will be. And that is what this show is all about. You can say that again!! Nothing will ever change that, and that is why we, and everybody else (even the one who won't admit it out loud ) now that these two would eventually get back together. Once and for all. Now, on with the show... Tom Kapinos "Well, my feelings are this, and this is just one writer's opinion, but to me the show is about Dawson and Joey and it's about these two people who meet really young, and they are sort of meant to be. They are soulmates, but life gets in the way, and it's impossible when you're that young to sustain a relationship like that. So each person has to go off and have other relationships that are positive and real and important. I think Dawson and Joey ultimately... I would like to think they would make their way back to each other, but in the meantime they have all these other relationships to explore." Anna Fricke "I'll say this: I do think that this show, regardless of my opinion, is about the love between Dawson and Joey. When you cut everything else away, those two are at the heart". Greg Berlanti "I sort of always make the case that [Dawson's Creek] is about a pair of soulmates who met too young, and that's who Joey and Dawson are, but part of the power of our show is, how do these people still manage to find their way back to each other?"

If there was something that always defined D/J and their history, was music. Music never lies, and that is why I would like to post in here some observations made by Brandi about some of the lyrics used for our couple. It was (and it still is) Dawson and Joey all the way baby! They even have their own song, written specially for them: "Joey girl", by Binge (see lyrics scrolling down) Anyway, here you got Brandi's post: --------------------- I was listening to my D/J comp CD's last night, and I just fell in love with D/J's songs all over again. I listened to them straight through for hours, and I kept hearing the same themes popping up in the songs: Marriage: "Love for all my life, to have and to hold"- (Sunday Kind Of Love) "He and I, we needed a brass band"- (Thistle) "Someday somebody gonna ask you, a question that you should say yes to"- (Questions) "He wants to marry me, carry me far away"- (Thinking Over) Rain: "In the rain, the pavement shines like silver"- (On My Own) "And rain falls angry on the tin roof"- (I'll Be) "I fall alseep to the sound of London rain"- (London Rain) "Kiss the rain whenever you need me"- (Kiss The Rain) Home: "Too long, too far from home"- (Full Of Grace) "Without a home, without a friend, without a face to say hello to"- (On My Own) "Now I'm just rolling home, into my lover's arms"- (Broken Road) "I'm coming, I'm coming home to you"- (London Rain) "It feels like home to me"- (Feels Like Home) "You see that I'm crying, though I'm going home"- (Music To My Ears) "He took her by the hand, walked her back home, and they took the long way"- (Questions) "So I took a little time, and you took a little space, but the house is feeling cold"- (Tell Me) "So when I lose my way, please call me home, I pray"- (Your Love) Roads/Paths: "God blessed the broken road that lead me straight to you"- (Broken Road) "Like the path of a star, I'll be everywhere you are"- "(Say Goodnight, Not Goodbye) "When the road gets dark, and you can no longer see"- (Have A Little Faith In Me) "Maybe this road we're on's the very thing that's come between us; maybe it's the highway to the very thing that just might save us"- (Each Little Mystery) "I take the road that's right, even if I'm left alone"- (Wait For The Way) "You're really somewhere down the road...I know"- (Souviners) "But borrowed faith is just not the road to take"- (Camelot) "The path of nails and scars is the only way"- (Camelot) "We may never meet again on the bumpy road to love"- (Can't Take That Away From Me) "There are two roads to walk down, and one road to choose"- (Thinking Over) Even in the lyrics, it's clear that D/J are on the "road" to each other, because they are each other's "home". Even though that journey may be a long one and has a lot of obstacles ("rain"), once they finally reach "home", they will be together forever. The music doesn't lie! -------------------------- "What we have is forever". "Yes, it is". "I love you Dawson". "I love you too Joey". "You and me always". "Always". "Joey Girl" Performed and written by Binge All the things that we've been through And all the things we didn't do The colors fade The seasons change And all the time I've waited here for you All the things that I should have done To all the wars we've never won The stars will fall The leaves will change My love for you will always be the same Joey, my arms are open for you Joey, you know that you are mine Joey, you know that I adore you Joey girl, someday I'll make you mine It seems to me that I've been here once before Can't you see that it's all worth fighting for You used to come in through my window But I can't wait here anymore, Joey girl... All that signs that I misread All the things I should have said They haunt me now But things will change My love for you will always stay the same Joey, my arms are open for you Joey, you know that you are mine Joey, you know that I adore you Joey girl, someday I'll make you mine I'll make you mine... Watch the video here Remember: something has to end to begin again. This end was just a new beginning for D/J, like it always has been, because they are... [img]smilies/love.gif[/img] So keep the D&J love going! [img]smilies/love.gif[/img] __________________

Aww, nice opening Bea.
Did you know it took me like 2 hours to read the 5oo reasons why we love D/J? Uh huh. Whenever i look at a picture of D/J kissing or hugging or just standing together my tummy does flippes. (It also does that when i look at a pic of JVDB but shhhh) __________________

You know what my perfect ending would have been for DC? This may sound cheesy but a D/J wedding now as Joey is walking down to Dawson the show plays the song ''Broken Road'' and shows flash backs of the good and bad like that fan on the Net made kind of and show how it all lead back to Dawson her soulmate in the end. I would have loved to have brought Mitch back and him by like a consonance to Dawson during the Jen thing and tell him life's to short and needs to fight for the woman he still is in love with. (Joey).

Hey everyone! I'm back from vacation. I've been sleeping mostly because of jetlag and trying to get back to a normal sleeping schedule. Glad to see the DJ thread running smoothly!
Bea-I didn't like Pacey in seasons 3 through 6 but I did like him in the first two seasons. After that, I basically hated him. Mainly in part because of him being with Joey a lot more. I agree with ya-He should have left Dawson alone. I love your fanarts from last thread as well as that DJ dock scene in season 4! Sweet! Swamy-Awesome DJ videos! I have yet to see them all! You have a lot! -Christy __________________
