  ## Content
  
  "Still" is a moderate up-tempo country song, backed primarily by electric guitar. The song's male narrator describes remembering his favorite place to be in his past, and reminding himself that he can "just be still" in order to reach it.
  
  ## Critical reception
  
  The song was met with positive reception. Los Angeles Times critic Randy Lewis said that the song had "a pulsating modern rock beat behind his Louisiana twang[…]but lyrically it digs a bit deeper than the melodramatic but superficial hits so closely associated with McGraw." Bobby Peacock of Roughstock rated it 4.5 stars out of 5, saying that "Tim has been forging a darker, deeper and frankly, more interesting sound with each successive album[…]With 'Still,' he is playing all of his artistic strengths and proving that not all of country music has to sound the same." A less favorable review came from Stephen Thomas Erlewine of Allmusic, who called it "a slow, spacy crawl[…]that would not be out of place on a record by a U2 knockoff."
  
  ## Chart performance
  
  "Still" peaked at number 16 on the US Hot Country Songs chart.
