One of the last new tracks released during the band’s original period of existence, this straightforward and tight song based around a series of simple three-chord riffs and a killer bass line could – and should – easily have been a radio hit (certainly on AOR). Instead, it’s been relegated to deep deep cut status, surfacing almost randomly on vari...
One of the few Utopia tracks to be co-written by- and feature one-time bassist Doug Howard, this bouncy novelty song hides a deeper sadness in the lyrics, in which a chorus (i.e. a group of people singing together) tries to convince the protagonist that his lover has moved on, which he responds to by stating that he’s trying desperately to do the s...
Todd Rundgren takes lead vocals for this arty rocker from the band’s Oblivion album, a “too-much-information” protest anthem for the often confusing era that was the early Eighties (Def Leppard would later seemingly quote this song – plus the album title – in their 1999 track “Kings of Oblivion”).
While Utopia would later do a whole album of original songs paying tribute to The Beatles, this track from Ra shows that they had already embraced the sound of the Fab Four, particularly the approximate era of Magical Mystery Tour. The cut even includes a brief spoken work section featuring several different “characters,” one of whom sounds frighte...
This jazz-funk-flavored musical counterpoint from Oops! Wrong Planet, featuring Powell on lead vocals, also serves as a cautionary tale of a decaying berg (not specifically identified, but everyone probably has their own guess) that is too quickly becoming uninhabitable (“You better run for your lives”).
Rundgren at the helm once again for this solid and to-the-point rocker which features a new wavy synth opening and employs a soft-then-loud-then-back vocal approach which would later be used by Nirvana and others (there’s also the elaborate video, which re-imagines this fairly standard breakup song as a post-apocalyptic epic in which authoritative ...
Though never really considered part of it, Utopia was fully on board with the new wave movement at the dawn of the Eighties, as proven by this track featuring lead vocals by drummer John “Willie” Wilcox, which would be right at home alongside hits by groups like The Cars, Devo and The Tubes. “Crazy” also features a great synth bridge along with a c...
Even though the title mentions a very different rock genre, this is unquestionably a heavy metal song, replete with the monster guitar riff, atmosphere production, and appropriate lyrical imagery (“… and the whole universe is a giant guitar”). It’s hard to imagine why Kiss or another band of that ilk has never covered this song.
Keyboardist Roger Powell takes lead vocals for this ethereal but hard-rocking cut inspired by biblical imagery, which proves that song can be straightforward and epic simultaneously.
Sounding kind of like simplified Springsteen (complete with a handclap break), this rocker from the band’s Swing to the Right album offers a message of unity between all manner of common people (“Politicians and dictators and the guys with the dough/They think they run the world, but they just don’t know/’Cause down here on the street we got it und...
