The track was originally written in 2019 during the artist’s time spent as a flight attendant
With the release of her gloriously upbeat and thoughtful new single ‘Optimist’, engrossing Hamburg pop artist Katja von Bauske explores the nuances and misconceptions that come with being an optimistic person who tries to be positive and upbeat, imploring others not to view this outlook as a sign of weakness or naivety.
Instead, the track is centres around the idea that optimism should be worn as a badge of courage and resilience, an acknowledgement that storms and hard times are coming but not allowing these things to dampen your spirits. The vibrant and bouncy nature of the soundscape and Katja’s captivating German vocals do a great job of reinforcing this message and appeal, and make for a tonne of exciting and dynamic moments as the track progresses.
