We got really excited at the news that The Office just might make a comeback in the future, and it got us reminiscing about the times Michael, Pam, Jim and co. gave us all the feelz. From Pam’s tears to Dwight’s antics with a megaphone, here are 19 examples of The Office getting seriously emotional, complete with an emo tune to soundtrack each scene.

When Pam fell asleep on Jim

Not only was she falling asleep on his shoulder, but this was one of the first hints we had that Pam was properly falling for Jim. This scene is off-the-scale cute.

Emo soundtrack: “Fall For You,” Secondhand Serenade

When Jim first declared his love for Pam

Yeah, prepare for a lot of Jim and Pam in this list. Bore off, Shakespeare –– this is the greatest love story ever told.

Emo soundtrack: “Secret Love,” Bellevue Days

When Pam cried about Jim and Karen’s relationship

Don’t cry, Pam! Or at least, if you’re going to have a cry, make sure you’re blasting some proper emo bangers to soundtrack your sadness.

Emo soundtrack: “I Miss You,” Blink-182

When Michael bought Pam’s artwork

Poor Pam, right? She had a really rough time in the early seasons of The Office, including the episode where none of her co-workers turned up to her art show (apart from Oscar, who was a right bitch). That is, until Michael shows up at the last minute and is gobsmacked at Pam’s drawing of the Dunder Mifflin building. “I’m so proud of you,” our favorite boss gushes as both his and the audience’s eyes well up.

Emo soundtrack: “Candles,” Hey Monday

When Jim asked Pam out on their first date

The hearts of Office fans around the world soared when Jim finally broke things off with Karen and asked out Pam. “Are you free for dinner tonight?” the paper salesman asks. OF COURSE SHE BLOODY IS, MATE.

Emo soundtrack: “Cloud,” Basement

When Jim proposed to Pam

The Office went full rom-com for the big proposal, with gushing rain and swirling wind serving as the backdrop to Jim asking Pam to marry him.

Emo soundtrack: “Thunder,” Boys Like Girls

When Jim showed Pam the house he’d bought

Yes, it’s not the prettiest of houses (we all remember that clown painting), but come on, Jim’s a paper salesman, not a rock star. Pam’s reaction here is priceless: “You bought me a house!!!” YEAH, HE DID!

Emo soundtrack: “The World Is Ugly,” My Chemical Romance

When Jim and Pam found out Pam was pregnant

Who saw that coming?! You go for a harmless game of volleyball, and you come away with the news that you’re going to be parents. “Dwight, send in the subs!”

Emo soundtrack: “Stupid For You,” Waterparks

When Pam and Jim got married at Niagara Falls

Another rain-soaked Jim and Pam scene to tug at our heartstrings. The cutest couple ever to grace TV finally tie the knot in the most romantic of circumstances –– cue tears of joy from literally everyone watching.

When Toby reminisces about the past

Dunder Mifflin has been bought by the mysterious Sabre, and it is Toby’s job to inform his new bosses as to any issues that might have occurred in the past. Scranton’s most hated HR rep chooses to keep all his co-workers’ misgivings to himself, and we’re treated to a series of super emo flashbacks.

Emo soundtrack: “Good Times,” All Time Low

When Andy and Erin share their first kiss

Andy Bernard might be weirdly loveable, but there’s no denying that in throwing away his relationship with Erin, he was a massive idiot. At least we have their adorable first kiss to remember, complete with a stunning garbage dump background…

Emo soundtrack: “That Pretty Dress,” Junior

When Holly found Michael on the rooftop

Finally, FINALLY, they got together. Michael might be a bit of a moron, but there’s no denying he’s got a heart of gold, and that heart has belonged to Holly from the moment they met. Shucks.

Emo soundtrack: “The Lovers,” Miss Vincent

When Michael proposed to Holly

He needed Pam’s help to make sure he didn’t cause harm to himself or anyone else in the process, and yet Michael’s proposal ends up being utterly adorable. And yes, there’s more rain (well, in this case, sprinklers) falling on a pair of Office lovebirds.

Emo soundtrack: “Kiss Me Like Nobody’s Watching,” Simple Plan

When the office said a post-Dundies goodbye to Michael

Everyone sing it! “You hit me with your car/You helped me get off drugs/I watch you when you sleep/I forgive you for kissing me.” The Dunder Mifflin gang certainly know how to pen a catchy tune…

Emo soundtrack: “9,986,000 Minutes,” The Office cast (It couldn’t really be anything else, could it?)

When Pam found the “Pam, Cece, New Baby/Everything Else” note

Further proof that Jim Halpert is probably the best husband ever.

Emo soundtrack: “There Is Only You,” The Xcerts

When Dwight declared his love for Angela (with a megaphone)

 
“THIS EXPRESSES HOW LOUDLY I LOVE YOU.”

Who says romance is dead?

JUST TELL US WHAT THE NOTE SAID, PAM. Pretty please.

When Michael and Dwight were reunited

 
“Michael, I can’t believe you came.”

Comedy at its finest.
