Trivia

Interesting facts about Optimistic. By Songfacts.

During live performances, Thom Yorke has sung this version of the chorus:
"You can try the best you can, you can try the best you can. The best you can ain't good enough."
(thanks, Steven - Stockton, CA)


Yorke revealed in 2003 that the song's chorus ("You can try the best you can. You can try the best you can. The best you can is good enough.") came from words of encouragement he received from his partner, Rachel Owen. He was worried that "nothing we'd done was releasable."
