Critical reception
Pan-European magazine Music & Media named "Rock Steady" Single of the Week, writing, "What a brilliant idea to put these two together! A moaning bottleneck riff rips open this track, which has "classic" stomped all over it. Rait's bluesy feel and Adams' R&R pedigree fuse into a perfect rock song, which will energise radio listeners at any time of the day."[1]
