After all | a Lor production

Dawson and Joey music videos

They are the first couple which I wholeheartedly loved ,adored and worshipped. The one that I believed just belonged together from the beginning of the show. They are the typical example of star-crossed, ill-fated soul mates who will always love each other no matter what. I hated the end of the show and how the writers messed them up during the years. They had such a great potential and it was literally wasted again and again and again.

Despite it all, even if it’s absolutely crazy, I still hope that somewhere down the road they’ll finally come back to each other.

Used to:

Song: Used to by

Premise:

Joey: Last time we were here...
Dawson: It was a very different time.
Joey: To think we'd end up here.
Dawson: Oh boy. Little did we know, huh? (4.15 -- Four Story)
I was thinking about those lines and suddenly I felt inspired to make another DJo video. It's from Dawson's Pov and it basically deals with the same question that keeps torturing him again and again: Can Dawson and Joey get back what they once had?

A different kind of pain: (5)Awards winner!

http://www.megaupload.com/?d=J4RYDKYI

Song: A different kind of pain by Cold

Premise: This is my first ( and probably last) Dawson/Joey & Luke/Lorelai video.

I've been having this idea on my mind for a while now and I'm really happy I've finally been able to realize it. Dawson/Joey and Luke/Lorelai are two different couples but they do have some aspects in common. In both cases the characters are/were best friends who fell in love after a while and finally got together after pining for one another for a very long time. Both couples have also been described as 'meant to be' and 'soul mates' by the writers. So... basically, what I wanted to explore was my personal anger in hearing the writers telling me one thing and doing another. They told/tell us to invest just to mess everything up in the end. D/J didn't get their long awaited happy ending. Will Luke and Lorelai get it?

Goodbye to you: (4)Awards winner!

Song: Goodbye to you by Michelle Branch

Premise: Joey repeatedly tries to say goodbye to Dawson but everytime it gets harder and harder.

Missing: (4)Awards winner!

http://www.megaupload.com/?d=QUA0GUSZ

Song: Missing by Evanescence

Premise: An angsty video that shows how much Dawson and Joey miss each other and feel incomplete when they are apart.

What hurst the most: (4)Awards winner!

http://www.megaupload.com/?d=2L6VGHKS

Song: What hurts the most by Rascal Flatts

Premise: Told from both Dawson's and Joey's povs.

"What hurts the most
Was being so close
And having so much to say
And watching you walk away
And never knowing
What could have been
And not seeing that loving you
Is what I was tryin’ to do"- Rascal Flatts

Romeo and Juliet:

http://www.megaupload.com/?d=QQXGO000

Song: Romeo and Juliet by Indigo girls

Premise: Dawson's Pov.

Joey: I don't know. Sometimes I think it's better... when we don't get to touch our dreams.

Dawson: Do you really believe that?

Joey: I don't know. No. Yes. I spend half the time wondering what might have been and the other half thinking "just as well."

Dawson: Do you think we'll ever get it right? Joey: Not in this lifetime. (5.19:"Light years from home).

Pacey: I-- oh, look. If anybody understands the various shades of gray here, it's me, and I think it's time the two of you got your shot... because the way I see it, you never did, and this world could use as many Romeo and Juliet’s as it can get.(5.04:The long goodbye)

The timing was never right in the past. Will Dawson and Joey ever be able to get their shot?

Slow dancing:

Song: Slow dancing by U2

Premise: There are so many P/J dances related videos around the forums, the sites etc., but you rarely ever see a D/J video. I think that people tend to forget that Dawson and Joey definitely shared more dances on the show than Pacey and Joey ever did and so I decided to make my own little retrospective of them. I loved all of their dances. Even the sad or the angsty ones because they had an important part in building their relationship. Each dance was different and unique and perfectly represented the feelings they were sharing at the moment.

Everlasting Love: Award winner!

http://www.megaupload.com/?d=RGA65V4X

Song: Viva forever by Spice Girls

Premise: Dawson: “I wanted to write about falling in love and why it can't last, but at the same time, how it lasts forever.” (episode 6.17 “Sex and Violence”)

Joey: “I wonder what sick part of me thrives on movies with these kinds of love stories”

Dawson: “The ones that end unhappily?”

Joey: “ No. The kinds that never really end. I mean, think about it. To continue loving somebody even though there's no chance of that love ever thriving... that's romance. It's movies like these that remind me of how unmovable and powerful love can be…Because in spite of the circumstances... they never stop loving.” ( episode 2.22 “Parental discretion”)

Dawson: “My life is real. It doesn't matter who ends up with who. Because in some unearthly way it's always gonna be you and me”.

Joey: “Soul mates.”

Dawson: “What we have goes beyond friendship, beyond lovers. It's forever.”

Joey: “ Yes, it is.” (episode 6.24 “ … Must come to an end”)

Even if I dislike the most of Spice girls’ songs, I really like this one and I thought it fitted perfectly what I wanted to say. The love and the bond existing between Dawson and Joey is everlasting. The lines above really say it all so I don’t need to add anything about the content of this video.

After All:

Offline!

Song: After all by Peter Cetera and Cher

Premise: I know I’ve already used this song to make a L/L video and I know that louloucn made a beautiful PJer video to it (to whom this video is inspired), but I think it fits Dawson and Joey perfectly as well.

This is an alternate universe End of the show. Joey never ended up with Pacey while Dawson and her finally got their long awaited happy ending.

My Happy Ending:

http://www.megaupload.com/?d=V4UBFU3V

Song: My Happy Ending by Avril Lavigne

Premise: This is an angsty video that shows how much the writers messed Dawson and Joey up during the years.

They told us they were meant to be and made promises just to change everything in 2 hours of Finale.

This Kiss:

Offline!

Song: This kiss by Faith Hill

Premise: Told from Joey’s Pov, this is a fluffy video about D/J best kisses and happiest moments.

The way we were:

http://www.megaupload.com/?d=LA2OMBKO

Song: The way we were by Barbra Streisand

Premise: This video takes place during the Series Finale. Both Dawson and Joey think about their past, present and future and ask themselves whether their story would’ve ended up in the same way if they had done something different.

Forever this way:

Offline!

Song: This way by Jewel

Premise: “What we have goes beyond friendship, beyond lovers. It’s forever.”- Dawson Leery

This line says it all. Really.
