I think this song is nostalgic because it speaks of simpler times.
Before bras burned. Even though it changed things for the better, it was much easier to do and want what everyone else did/wanted.
Also, i think the lines:
When our underwire radio tears into their international airwaves,
Boredom will die, ears will bleed
And all they'll desire is to give, and to please...
could be about Emily's music career and how in the past it was so naive and simple- she'd play her music, people would be won over, and all she would do was give her songs and aim to please her audience. Maybe things changed when she was sick of not getting anything back, or maybe she was holding herself back in order to please the audience?
