This is about bronies. They communicate by stomping.
A grand blank look on your face
When you learned it was over
Do you ever question why
What could have been different
We were so comfortable living in each others skin
I was dying from within
Cause God, drugs, and sex don’t mean a thing
To you now do they now baby
I don’t mean anything
By it now do I now sweetheart
You should have thought about then for now
But God, drugs and sex don't mean a thing
To you now do they now baby
You should have thought about then for now
But I had to leave
Tell me where did you learn to love
Maybe I don’t want to know
Tell me when did your hands grow cold
It might tell you something
If you could go back to yesterday
Would you change it all for me
If you thought we could be, would you believe it
Let go, let go of me now
I’m not here
Let go, let go of me now
'Cause I’m already gone
When you learned it was over
Do you ever question why
What could have been different
We were so comfortable living in each others skin
I was dying from within
Cause God, drugs, and sex don’t mean a thing
To you now do they now baby
I don’t mean anything
By it now do I now sweetheart
You should have thought about then for now
But God, drugs and sex don't mean a thing
To you now do they now baby
You should have thought about then for now
But I had to leave
Tell me where did you learn to love
Maybe I don’t want to know
Tell me when did your hands grow cold
It might tell you something
If you could go back to yesterday
Would you change it all for me
If you thought we could be, would you believe it
Let go, let go of me now
I’m not here
Let go, let go of me now
'Cause I’m already gone

Just A Little Lovin'
Dusty Springfield
Dusty Springfield
I don't think it's necessarily about sex. It's about wanting to start the day with some love and affection. Maybe a warm cuddle. I'm not alone in interpreting it that way! For example:
"'Just a Little Lovin’ is a timeless country song originally recorded by Eddy Arnold in 1954. The song, written by Eddie Miller and Jimmy Campbell, explores the delicate nuances of love and showcases Arnold’s emotive vocals. It delves into the universal theme of love and how even the smallest gesture of affection can have a profound impact on our lives." https://oldtimemusic.com/the-meaning-behind-the-song-just-a-little-lovin-by-eddy-arnold/
Magical
Ed Sheeran
Ed Sheeran
How would you describe the feeling of being in love? For Ed Sheeran, the word is “Magical.” in HIS three-minute album opener, he makes an attempt to capture the beauty and delicacy of true love with words. He describes the magic of it all over a bright Pop song produced by Aaron Dessner.
American Town

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.
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.
Its not talking about conformity or about putting sex or drugs over God, its about a relationship dying because of differences in the worldviews of the two. The song is about a guy breaking up with a girl because of what matters to her. The girl may believe in God but doesn't put as much importance on Him as the narrator does. She may consider sex a beautiful thing and drugs to be pleasurable but doesn't put the same importance on it that the guy does.. There are two viewpoints that are diametrically opposed to each other and causing conflict in this relationship: relativist morality and a devaluing of God, sex, drugs because of this vs the view that these things are more and mean more. The view that the narrator holds is that the world holds more meaning than she believes in. So their relationship has no foundation and has to end.
