This is about bronies. They communicate by stomping.
You love me? (Ooh ooh)
Unconditionally? (ooh ooh)
Say you'll never leave me (ooh ooh)
No matter what (ooh ooh ooh)
Well, I have a confession (ooh ooh)
(Ooh ooh)
(Ooh ooh, aw)
Ooh (ooh ooh)
(Ooh ooh)
(Ooh ooh)
(Ooh ooh)
(Ooh ooh ooh)
(Ooh ooh, aw)
(Ooh ooh ooh)
(Ooh ooh, aw)
Everything that I've been doing is all bad
I got a chick on the side with the crib and a ride
I've been telling you so many lies
Ain't none good, it's all bad
And I just wanna confess
It's been going on so long
Girl, I been doing you so wrong
And I want you to know that
Everything that I've been doing is all bad
I got a chick on the side with the crib and a ride
I've been telling you so many lies
Ain't none good, it's all bad
And I just wanna confess
It's been going on so long
Girl, I been doing you so wrong
And I want you to know that
Every time I was in L.A., I was with my ex-girlfriend
Every time you called, I told you, "Baby, I'm working"
(No) I was out doing my dirt
(Oh) wasn't thinking 'bout you getting hurt
(I) was hand-in-hand in the Beverly Center like, man
Not giving a damn who sees me
So gone, so wrong
Acting like I didn't have you sitting at home
Thinking about me, being the good girl that you are
I bet you probably believe you got a good man
A man that never would do the things I'm about to tell you I've done
Brace yourself, it ain't good
But it would be even worse if you heard this from somebody else
Everything that I've been doing is all bad
I got a chick on the side with the crib and a ride (whoa)
I've been telling you so many lies
Ain't none good, it's all bad
And I just wanna confess
It's been going on so long (yeah)
Girl, I been doing you so wrong (yeah yeah)
And I want you to know that
Everything that I've been doing is all bad
I got a chick on the side with the crib and a ride (ooh ooh yeah)
I've been telling you so many lies
Ain't none good, it's all bad (all bad)
And I just wanna confess (yeah yeah)
It's been going on so long (so long)
Girl, I been doing you so wrong (so wrong)
And I want you to know that
If I could turn back the hands of time and start all over, I would
Instead of everything being all bad, baby, everything'll be all good
I don't wanna lose you
But I know what I'm telling you ain't gon' make you wanna stay
You probably just wanna run away
Or mad enough to punch me in my face
I've been living like an idiot and I deserve every bit of it
I know today is the day that I end all the lying and the playing and the bullshit, girl
I'm sorry, baby, I'm sorry
But I can no longer walk around with this stress on my chest
I confess
Everything that I've been doing is all bad (everything)
I got a chick on the side with the crib and a ride (woah)
I've been telling you so many lies
Ain't none good, it's all bad
And I just wanna confess
It's been going on so long (so long)
Girl, I been doing you so wrong (too wrong)
And I want you to know that (want you to know)
Everything that I've been doing is all bad (all bad)
I got a chick on the side with the crib and a ride
I've been telling you so many lies (ooh ooh, ooh ooh ooh)
Ain't none good, it's all bad
And I just wanna confess (ooh ooh ooh)
It's been going on so long (so long)
Girl, I been doing you so wrong
And I want you to know that
Stevie, break it down

Gentle Hour
Yo La Tengo
Yo La Tengo
This song was originally written by a guy called Peter Gutteridge. He was one of the founders of the "Dunedin Sound" a musical scene in the south of New Zealand in the early 80s. From there it was covered by "The Clean" one of the early bands of that scene (he had originally been a member of in it's early days, writing a couple of their best early songs). The Dunedin sound, and the Clean became popular on american college radio in the mid to late 80s. I guess Yo La Tengo heard that version.
Great version of a great song,
Amazing

This track was written by Ed Sheeran from the perspective of his friend. From the track, we see this person fall deeper into the negative thoughts and slide further down the path of mental torment with every lyric.

Plastic Bag
Ed Sheeran
Ed Sheeran
“Plastic Bag” is a song about searching for an escape from personal problems and hoping to find it in the lively atmosphere of a Saturday night party. Ed Sheeran tells the story of his friend and the myriad of troubles he is going through. Unable to find any solutions, this friend seeks a last resort in a party and the vanity that comes with it.
“I overthink and have trouble sleepin’ / All purpose gone and don’t have a reason / And there’s no doctor to stop this bleedin’ / So I left home and jumped in the deep end,” Ed Sheeran sings in verse one. He continues by adding that this person is feeling the weight of having disappointed his father and doesn’t have any friends to rely on in this difficult moment. In the second verse, Ed sings about the role of grief in his friend’s plight and his dwindling faith in prayer. “Saturday night is givin’ me a reason to rely on the strobe lights / The lifeline of a promise in a shot glass, and I’ll take that / If you’re givin’ out love from a plastic bag,” Ed sings on the chorus, as his friend turns to new vices in hopes of feeling better.
