This is about bronies. They communicate by stomping.
Steppin' out, steppin' out, steppin' out, and jumpin' up and
Steppin' out, steppin' out, steppin' out, and jumpin' up and
Steppin' out, steppin' out, steppin' out, and jumpin' up and
Pressure off, pressure off, pressure pressure pressure off
Past is another country
The present will never last
The future, it's still tomorrow
Are we living too fast?
Searchlight the crowd, I'm fixed on your face
I know it well, but it's a dream I can't place
Something is happening to me
Maybe it's happening to you, you, you, you
Everybody everywhere, feel it in the air
Oh yeah, it's time to take the pressure off
Everybody everywhere, step out into the future
It's time to take the pressure off
Oh oh oh oh oh oh
Oh oh oh oh
It's up to you now
It's time to take the pressure off
Oh oh oh oh oh oh
Oh oh oh oh
It's up to you now
It's time to take the pressure off
Steppin'
Steppin'
Steppin'
It's time to take the pressure off
Swimming with the rat race
Or running against the tide
It's everybody's business when there's nowhere to hide
Searchlight the crowd, I'm fixed onto you
There's a way out of this into the blue
Something is happening to me
Maybe it's happening to you, you, you, you
Everybody everywhere, feel it in the air
Oh yeah (oh yeah), it's time to take the pressure off
Everybody everywhere, step out into the future
It's time to take the pressure off
Oh oh oh oh oh oh
Oh oh oh oh
It's up to you now
It's time to take the pressure off
Oh oh oh oh oh oh

It's time to take the pressure off
Steppin' out, steppin' out, steppin' out, and jumpin' up and
Steppin' out, steppin' out, steppin' out, and jumpin' up and
Steppin' out, steppin' out, steppin' out, and jumpin' up and
Pressure off, pressure off, pressure pressure pressure off
I'm lost, don't wanna be found
I'm up and not gonna be down
Outside looking in on myself
Just me, I couldn't be anyone else
Is it bad when you're feeling this good?
Are we all misunderstood?
It's fine, going out of my mind
Going out of my mind, going out of my mind
Everybody everywhere (yeah), feel it in the air (whoo)
Oh yeah (oh yeah), it's time to take the pressure off
Everybody everywhere, step out into the future
It's time to take the pressure off
Oh oh oh oh oh oh
Oh oh oh oh
It's up to you now
It's time to take the pressure off
Oh oh oh oh oh oh
Oh oh oh oh
It's up to you now
Step out into the future
Oh oh oh oh oh oh

Jump up into the future (Oh oh oh oh oh oh)

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,

Same ideas expressed in Fitter, Happier are expressed in this song. We're told to strive for some sort of ideal life, which includes getting a good job, being kind to everyone, finding a partner, getting married, having a couple kids, living in a quiet neighborhood in a nice big house, etc. But in Fitter, Happier the narrator(?) realizes that it's incredibly robotic to live this life. People are being used by those in power "like a pig in a cage on antibiotics"--being pacified with things like new phones and cool gadgets and houses while being sucked dry. On No Surprises, the narrator is realizing how this life is killing him slowly. In the video, his helmet is slowly filling up with water, drowning him. But he's so complacent with it. This is a good summary of the song. This boring, "perfect" life foisted upon us by some higher powers (not spiritual, but political, economic, etc. politicians and businessmen, perhaps) is not the way to live. But there is seemingly no way out but death. He'd rather die peacefully right now than live in this cage. While our lives are often shielded, we're in our own protective bubbles, or protective helmets like the one Thom wears, if we look a little harder we can see all the corruption, lies, manipulation, etc. that is going on in the world, often run by huge yet nearly invisible organizations, corporations, and 'leaders'. It's a very hopeless song because it reflects real life.
Magical

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.

There aren’t many things that’ll hurt more than giving love a chance against your better judgement only to have your heart crushed yet again. Ed Sheeran tells such a story on “Page.” On this track, he is devastated to have lost his lover and even more saddened by the feeling that he may never move on from this.
