You Did Good Kid - The Hold Steady

You Did Good Kid - The Hold Steady
4:09
Thrashing Thru the Passion, 2019
Written by Craig Finn, Tad Kubler, Franz Nicolay, Bobby Drake, Steve Selvidge, and Galen Polivka

A somewhat murky, mood-setting track that doesn't quite reach the anthemic highs of their best work.  Of course, Finn's sotrytelling is as always on point.   which centers on drug-addled drifters and the seedy, tense atmosphere of their lives. Critics noted the song is a dark, atmospheric example of Craig Finn's narrative storytelling and the band's signature sound, The song is characterized by its up-tempo energy, gang vocals, and Thin Lizzy-esque riffs, providing a sound that is both familiar to fans and accessible to new listeners.
