I haven't heard a frankly optimistic piece of pop music in a very long time - the example I can think of from the 80-90's in the US is 10,000 Maniacs ("These are Days" was a Clinton campaign theme song.) Some people bash them is trite "concern rock", but at the time there really was optimism that society could be (and would be) improved.
