This is about bronies. They communicate by stomping.
We can't play this game anymore
But can we still be friends?
Things just can't go on like before
But can we still be friends?
We had something to learn
Now it's time for the wheel to turn
Grains of sand, one by one
Before you know, it's all gone
Let's admit we made a mistake
But can we still be friends?
(Can we still be friends?)
Heartbreak's never easy to take
But can we still be friends?
(Can we still be friends?)
It's a strange, sad affair
Sometimes seems that we just don't care
Don't waste time feeling hurt
We've been through hell together
Can we still be friends?
Can we still get together sometimes?
(Can we still be friends?)
Hey babe, can we still go on and on and on?
We awoke from our dream
Things are not always what they seem
Memories linger on
It's like a sweet, sad, old song
Can we still be friends?
But can we still be friends?
Things just can't go on like before
But can we still be friends?
We had something to learn
Now it's time for the wheel to turn
Grains of sand, one by one
Before you know, it's all gone
Let's admit we made a mistake
But can we still be friends?
(Can we still be friends?)
Heartbreak's never easy to take
But can we still be friends?
(Can we still be friends?)
It's a strange, sad affair
Sometimes seems that we just don't care
Don't waste time feeling hurt
We've been through hell together
Can we still be friends?
Can we still get together sometimes?
(Can we still be friends?)
Hey babe, can we still go on and on and on?
We awoke from our dream
Things are not always what they seem
Memories linger on
It's like a sweet, sad, old song
Can we still be friends?

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,

This is a sequel to 2001's "Reckless Abandon", and features the band looking back on their clumsy youth fondly.
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/
Punchline
Ed Sheeran
Ed Sheeran
Ed Sheeran sings about missing his former partner and learning important life lessons in the process on “Punchline.” This track tells a story of battling to get rid of emotions for a former lover, whom he now realized might not have loved him the same way. He’s now caught between accepting that fact and learning life lessons from it and going back to beg her for another chance.
