Overview
There''s gonna come a time when the true scene leaders Forget where they differ and get big picture ''Cause the kids at the shows, they''ll have kids of their own And these sing-along songs will be our scriptures We gotta stay positive! STAY POSITIVE is a charming children''s picture book based on The Hold Steady song of the same name. The title track of the band''s fourth album (released in 2008), ''Stay Positive'' is a call to arms to stand strong and persevere during trying times. The song remains a fan favourite and a staple of The Hold Steady''s live shows. The book follows the path of an adorable armadillo who discovers along the way how music can pull together a disparate cast of characters. It''s also a lesson in tenacity and maintaining a positive attitude when encountering adverse situations. The story ends up in a unified celebration that mirrors the joy of a Hold Steady performance. Singer Craig Finn explains, ''''Stay Positive'' has a line that says, ''The kids at the shows will have kids of their own,'' and it''s true: each year more Hold Steady fans become parents or grandparents. So I''m thrilled that we''re offering the children''s book version of ''Stay Positive,'' which brings THS joy to the whole family.''
