about
Is utopia, the place of equality and space for each individual to live out fantasies in the digital world? The song is full of divers ideas of utopia, from the tsunami of free thought and equality of the civil rights movement of the 1960’s, to the knowledge that our desire for utopia is being manipulated every day with the false possibility to buy our own private utopia. It's about asking yourself What do you want most?
we'd say to live peacefully together in an outrageous, creative place.
Utopia culminates with Yoko answering:
‘ unite and focus on what we want and we will get it, one of the things is peace, because we don’t want a violent world’
but i got some advice from my friends from the melbourne asian phone tree, they said its really difficult to do because its a tonal language, if you get the pronunciation off by just a little the words could mean something totally different. you could be singing about licking a dogs balls by accident.
if you're really keen to sing it, one of my friends said that if you send a recording of you singing the bit and checking to see if it makes sense? haha
let me know.
