This is about bronies. They communicate by stomping.
He's on the phone, and she wants to go home
Shoes in hand, don't make a sound, its time to go
(ooh-ooh)
Someday (someday), someday
he's on the phone, doesn't want to go home
The hotel life - forget your wife, you're on your own
Academia girl
Her life's a gas, she loves the trash inside his world
Can't find his way there
Got the cash, feeling flash in Leicester Square
(ooh-ooh)
Yes
She never meant to call, she did anyway
And now he's trying to find the words to say
Someday (someday), someday (someday)
Yes
She never meant to call, she did anyway
And now he's trying to find the words to say
Someday (someday), someday
Its five to twelve and she's nervous as hell
With nothing to lose, its hard to choose its hard to tell
Skin is dewdrop and warm
The lipstick kiss, reminisce, awake til dawn
(ooh-ooh)
Yes
She never meant to call, she did anyway
And now he's trying to find the words to say
Someday (someday), someday (someday)
Yes. (ooh-ooh)
She never meant to call, she did anyway
And now he's trying to find the words to say
Someday (someday), someday (someday)
He's on the phone and she wants to go home
Shoes in hand, don't make a sound, its time to go
Ooh-ooh
Yes
She never meant to call, she did anyway
And now he's trying to find the words to say
Someday (someday), someday (someday)
Yes (ooh-ooh)
She never meant to call, she did anyway
And now he's trying to find the words to say
Someday (someday), someday (someday), someday
Shoes in hand, don't make a sound, its time to go
(ooh-ooh)
Someday (someday), someday
he's on the phone, doesn't want to go home
The hotel life - forget your wife, you're on your own
Academia girl
Her life's a gas, she loves the trash inside his world
Can't find his way there
Got the cash, feeling flash in Leicester Square
(ooh-ooh)

She never meant to call, she did anyway

Someday (someday), someday (someday)

Little Feat
Overall about difficult moments of disappointment and vulnerability. Having hope and longing, while remaining optimistic for the future. Encourages the belief that with each new morning there is a chance for things to improve.
The chorus offers a glimmer of optimism and a chance at a resolution and redemption in the future.
Captures the rollercoaster of emotions of feeling lost while loving someone who is not there for you, feeling let down and abandoned while waiting for a lover. Lost with no direction, "Now I'm up in the air with the rain in my hair, Nowhere to go, I can go anywhere"
The bridge shows signs of longing and a plea for companionship. The Lyrics express a desire for authentic connection and the importance of Loving someone just as they are. "Just in passing, I'm not asking. That you be anyone but you”
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,
Blue
Ed Sheeran
Ed Sheeran
“Blue” is a song about a love that is persisting in the discomfort of the person experiencing the emotion. Ed Sheeran reflects on love lost, and although he wishes his former partner find happiness, he cannot but admit his feelings are still very much there. He expresses the realization that he might never find another on this stringed instrumental by Aaron Dessner.
American Town
Ed Sheeran
Ed Sheeran
Ed Sheeran shares a short story of reconnecting with an old flame on “American Town.” The track is about a holiday Ed Sheeran spends with his countrywoman who resides in America. The two are back together after a long period apart, and get around to enjoying a bunch of fun activities while rekindling the flames of their romance.
This song always reminds me of the West End, that is, visiting the West End alone, and just walking around with no purpose during the evening, by myself, among all the people enjoying themselves.
Bittersweet.
