Cover art for Utopia lyrics by Alanis Morissette

It's funny, but this song reminds of Hugo's, "Les Miserables". In the novel there was a group of university students who would often meet in the cafe to share their beliefs and dreams of creating a better world: free from tyranny and distress-and obviously they called it, Utopia. But in their meetings they talked of everything; everything with politics, history, books, gods, love, life, and death-supporting and disagreeing with one another-all young and all sadly unaware of where their dreams and passionate ideals may take them: "We'd open our arms, we'd all jump in."
