Released in 2013 on his album “Drinks After Work”, this track offers a reflective look at the passage of time and the way we often appreciate things more in hindsight.
Now, Toby’s known for his firecracker anthems and party songs, but here, he slows things down a bit. There’s a touch of nostalgia in his voice, a wistful yearning for the simpler times. It’s a feeling many of us can relate to, isn’t it?
We look back at our younger days, those scrappy years filled with laughter, late nights, and maybe a few questionable decisions, and can’t help but smile. Back then, we were just living life to the fullest, not realizing that those moments would become cherished memories.
“Before We Knew They Were Good” speaks to that feeling perfectly. It’s a reminder to savor the present, because before you know it, it’ll be the “good old days” you’re reminiscing about.
So, whether you’re a longtime Toby Keith fan or simply enjoy a song that tugs at the heartstrings, this track is definitely worth a listen. It’s a chance to reconnect with the younger you, appreciate the journey, and maybe even raise a glass to the good times, past and present.
