As Good As I Once Was is a standout track by Toby Keith, released in 2005 as part of his album “Honkytonk University.” The song humorously and candidly addresses the realities of aging, with the protagonist acknowledging that while he may not be as youthful as he once was, he can still rise to the occasion when needed. The accompanying music video, directed by Michael Salomon, brings this narrative to life with entertaining bar scenes, featuring Keith interacting with twins and engaging in a brawl to assist a friend. The song achieved significant success, topping the Billboard Hot Country Songs chart for six consecutive weeks and becoming one of Keith’s signature hits.
