Clide Will Have You Questioning Your Optimism in his Latest
By: Logan Jurek/ TikTok: lolokaterina
What do they say about optimists again? They have unrealistic expectations. Maybe so, but man, I’d be an optimist over the alternative any day of the week. It seems as though Clide would too and misses his old self a little in “Optimist.”
I guess we tend to lose that child-like wonder as we age, but why? Clide questions himself and his recent thought process based on his present circumstances. This song is so relatable with an uber catchy hook that makes the replay percentage high. The Christian French element in this song is very transparent with a slight Fike sound. Clide is truly doing the Lord’s work, because he will have all of us sitting back trying to regain our positive manifestations and bright sides of life real quick!
Lyrics That: “You used to be an optimist
Didn’t know you’d turn into the opposite
Where’d you go?”
