This is about bronies. They communicate by stomping.
When you're down and troubled
You need some love in can
And nothing, nothing seems to go right, no baby
Close your eyes and think of me
And soon I will be there
To brighten up even your darkest night, baby
You just call out my name
And you know wherever I am
I'll come running, baby to see you again
Winter, spring, summer or fall
All you have to do is call
And I'll be right there
You've got a friend now, you've got a friend
You've got a friend now, you've got a friend
You've got a friend now
I'll be right there, I'll be right there
If the sky above you
Grows dark and full of clouds
And that old north wind begins to blow, oh so cold baby
Keep your head together
And call my name out loud
Soon you'll hear me knocking at your door
Knocking at your door
Call out my name
And you know wherever I am
I'll come running, baby to see you again
Winter, spring, summer or fall
All you got to do is call
And I'll be there
You've got a friend now, you've got a friend
You've got a friend now, you've got a friend
You've got a friend now
I'll be right there, yes, I'll be right there
I'll be right there, I'll be right there
I'll be right there, I'll be right there
I'll be right there, I'll be right there
I'll be right there, I'll be right there
I'll be right there, I'll be right there
I'll be right there, I'll be right there
I'll be right there, I'll be right there
You need some love in can
And nothing, nothing seems to go right, no baby
Close your eyes and think of me
And soon I will be there
To brighten up even your darkest night, baby
You just call out my name
And you know wherever I am
I'll come running, baby to see you again
Winter, spring, summer or fall
All you have to do is call
And I'll be right there
You've got a friend now, you've got a friend
You've got a friend now, you've got a friend
You've got a friend now
I'll be right there, I'll be right there
If the sky above you
Grows dark and full of clouds
And that old north wind begins to blow, oh so cold baby
Keep your head together
And call my name out loud
Soon you'll hear me knocking at your door
Knocking at your door
Call out my name
And you know wherever I am
I'll come running, baby to see you again
Winter, spring, summer or fall
All you got to do is call
And I'll be there
You've got a friend now, you've got a friend
You've got a friend now, you've got a friend
You've got a friend now
I'll be right there, yes, I'll be right there
I'll be right there, I'll be right there
I'll be right there, I'll be right there
I'll be right there, I'll be right there
I'll be right there, I'll be right there
I'll be right there, I'll be right there
I'll be right there, I'll be right there
I'll be right there, I'll be right there

I think much like another song “Anti-Matter” (that's also on the same album as this song), this one is also is inspired by a horrifying van crash the band experienced on Nov 3, 2022. This, much like the other track, sounds like it's an extension what they shared while huddled in the wreckage, as they helped frontman Garrett Russell stem the bleeding from his head wound while he was under the temporary effects of a concussion. The track speaks of where the mind goes at the most desperate & desolate of times, when it just about slips away to all but disconnect itself, and the aftermath.
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
Ed Sheeran
Ed Sheeran
Ed Sheeran tells a story of unsuccessfully trying to feel “Amazing.” This track is about the being weighed down by emotional stress despite valiant attempts to find some positivity in the situation. 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.
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.
