One Day song analysis

Don't mind me, just having a mild breakdown at 3am at how PERFECTLY the song 'Unsaid Emily' from JATP fits Dexter and Emma from 'One Day' (the show). Absolutely going bonkers.

"And the words I most regret are the ones I never meant to leave unsaid, Emily."

He had once called her Emily in jest when his mother called her that, but this really just defines their entire dynamic for a LOT of that show.

"When things got loud, one of us running out. I should have turned around, but I had too much pride."

"Who'd be the first to break? Guess we're alike that way."

is their argument, and they literally didn't speak for three years?? What the hell else needs to be said? They loved each other most of the time they knew each other but were just never ready to fully put it out there like that.

"He said, she said, conversations in my head. And that's just where they're going to stay forever."

I'M GOING TO BE SICK. HE LITERALLY IMAGINED A CONVERSATION WITH HER AT THE END. Oooh I hate this I hate this I hate this, they're FICTIONAL

"If I could take us back, if I could just do that. And write in every empty space, the words "I love you" in replace…"

and we literally see Dexter imagining that he'd just kissed her that first morning after. THEY COULD HAVE HAD 13 YEARS TOGETHER. THEY WERE TRYING FOR A KID. THEY WERE (GETTING?) MARRIED.

"No time for goodbyes…"

SHE DIED ON THE WAY TO THEIR POTENTIAL FOREVER HOME, WHERE HE WAS WAITING. And her last words to him being "I'll see you soon"? Oh buddy I'm so unwell about this

One Day (2024) / One Day (2011)

[drunkzombie]

i have feelings about the series okay so let me get them out. first of all amazing actors both ambika mod and leo woodall. and the writing of the series, the direction—just beautiful. and the colour coordination they did, like how the last episode was blue to show the blues dex was feeling. and the hideous waitstaff dress and too many colours in the small café, it was giving suffocation for emma. and the bright, light, sunshiny days when they were together and talking and contented—perfection.

gosh, i love emma morley so much. and the way each episode shows a different side of her—from being super smart, ambitious, opinionated, planning ahead, and not-the-settling type, to at rock bottom, not self-fulfilled, and watching her life go where she never wanted it to. and then the slow and steady growth to ultimately where she wanted to be. i think every individual in their 20s and young adults need to watch it. the “life is not a race but a marathon” thing is captured impeccably. and dex... the poor guy is losing something or someone he loves, day after day, and it's painful to watch. i especially loved that part where his father is dropping him off at the railway station and shows him how disappointed he is, while also telling him that he still loves him but he better never disrespect his wife's time like that again. and that gets to him so bad—the guy legit has a breakdown at the railway station. that scene ruined me. and the whole series is filled with such raw and humane interactions.

i watched eternal sunshine of the spotless mind and thought i’d never feel that way about anything again. and then this series came along. and now i feel it all over again.

thinking about how it didn't rain the 15th of july emma and dexter officially first met and how it did rain the 15th of july em died and dex lost his best friend forever...

[vielaesque]

how do actors not fall in love with each other. like i know that’s why it’s called acting but personally i would fold immediately
