Stunning song! I wish I could hear more songs of this style! This genre of music suits you even better than the hard rock Sharon! Your voice sounds amazing when you sing this style of songs! Congrats! I hope I will see more of this genre! ❤👍👏
This video and song are both equally beautiful, i think its about life being utopia, and why do bad things happen to it. About how mankind is ruining utopia and the people within this perfect life ruining it for others.
Utopia is a is a 'feeling' of good/happiness/freedom, which sadly the US is losing more and more of every day. We are staring down the barrel of no freedom in this country anymore, and we are subtly being watched more and more every day. Big brother is moving in, as (in my opinion) this song depicts. Peace all...
The song and video have a powerful message I think. I've commented this before and I will again. To me that man in the video, I cant help but see him as God himself or an angel who's so sad of how awful this world became. I wont respond to debates about God or whatever other kind of fight over this song and video. But thats just what I think. Its Christmas. The "almighty christmas" and this is the one thing I want to "gift" to a lot of people out there. To take a look at this video and listen to this song. I wish they'd find more kindness inside of them. More goodness. That more people would actually care about everyone else, instead of being so fucking ignorant. I used to hope so much for a better tomorrow. A better humanity. But I find it hard to believe there will ever be a cure for mankind... I hope still that one day, we'd get better and be humans. Actual fucking humans.
Utopia is the dream of a perfect world. The song asks why even though this world and the humans are nearly perfect there is still "rain" meaning why still bad things are done. The man in black is an invisible person who watches mankind and their unmoral actions. That he saves the child at the end of the video might be a hint that it's important to teach morals to the younger generations as they are the ones who can change the world in the future.
Utopia is a word that explain something impossible. In this case, utopia is a city where everything's perfect but be "perfect" is impossibile for humans. From this, we have the word "utopia". I'm italian ;)
+Theonethatmustnotbenamed WHY DOES IT RAAAAAAAAAAAIN, RAAAAAAAAAAAIN RAAAAAAAAAIN DOWN ON UTOPIAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA WHY DOES IT HAAAAVE TO KIIIIIIIL HUWEAHHHHHHHHHHHHH
@mylinh47 It's ideal society and community, where aren't wars. The word was first used in the book, which was written by Mr. More and it was ... 16th century (not sure). Well, there are many books, so if you're interested. (Every book describes Utopia in its own way. 'cause there's question "How is possible it works?") Okay, end to lecture.
Utopia can't exist without sorrow and hate happiness and love don't exist, without death life is meaningless. We can dream about it but it can't be real...
se puede definir una utopía como un Estado imaginario que reúne todas las perfecciones y que hace posible una existencia feliz porque en él reinan la paz y la justicia.
if anybody doesnt understand why the guy pulled the kid back is because the kid would have gotten hit by the car but instead the toy got hit.....you can replace toys you cant replace a kid in your heart :) just for anybody who dint understand pretty sure everybody did tho XD
The world originally was Utopia. God created the world to be perfect and peaceful, however -we all know what happens so I wont go into detail- utopia is now, in a sense, still here but now we have to work harder to acieve it.
Utopia comes from the greek topos = place and u =not. Utopia = noplace, antiplace. It is a place that can never be true. But, we cant live without death. Death is not an end, its a part of life. Life is not a linear journey from birth to death, the linear journey is_a_ life. Life is a circle. If we didnt have bad we wouldnt have good. So Utopia without hate & war & sorrow wouldn't have happiness. Utopia without happiness = no utopia. Utopia with sorrow is not utopia either. Antiplace, it is.
this video reminds me of the lord of the flies and anthem but thats because they both have a strong theme of Utopia (obviously) lol. It reminds me of TLOTF because the kids think they are in utopia since there are no adults and soon relize that is not the case and turn psycho . It reminds me of Anthem because Equality is supposed to live in this perfect society but its just corrupted since they abolished individuality and free thinking and Equality is punished for questioning it.
@AcdcMan012 He didnt state that he doesnt own everything... the way you spell it out he does but look at what he typed ****I OWN NOTHING **** it is not a double negative just a negative so his statment was true.
Utopia was supposed to be Earth. But when Eve (in biblical terms) ate the fruit she released sickness, death, and bad, bad things into the world. Utopia was going to be Earths Name. Earth means less than Utopia.
What is the part supposed to be about where there is a girl by the side of the road and the car pulls up with the man inside and then she goes in the car ? !

Listened to this with my dad when I was five.
Now I’m almost 13, it still makes me cry.

i just love Within Temptation, and after this song also Chris Jones!
It's actually an interesting theory. I like it, thumbs up!

there aren't enough likes for this. this needs to be a top comment! :)
Wo immer das Original Video geblieben ist - es war so wunderschön. Schade - der übergeblendete Text verhunzt es meines Erachtens total.
Utopia is an imaginary place, and it is used aswell to describe perfect harmony and peace.
I love this song and this video.
WHY DOES IT RAIN RAIN RAIN DOWN IN UTOPIAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA ... Love ya WubWoofWolf... :^)
Nice song!
yaaaay!
Sharon is an angel!
Who's listening to this in 2017???
me
Me too!
This song will still frequent my playlists in 2037 let alone 2017. It is one of the more addictive collaborations Sharon has ever done.
Absolutely amazing...
Utopia is impossible, perfection doesn't exist. All we can do is try to come as close as possible to Utopia.
This song is great ! *-*
Utopia is a word that explain something impossible. In this case, utopia is a city where everything's perfect but be "perfect" is impossibile for humans. From this, we have the word "utopia".
I'm italian ;)
Utopia the perfect world ...

Beautiful song... However your last caption if you do not own nothing... You own something....
I perceived him as an angel, rather then God himself. Angels are crying for us :/

''I'm searching for answers not given for free'' God, help....
You just really don't get meaning behind this words? As "not given for free" means you need some effort to get them...
You see what happend to this world?
Kedysha Da One Effort =/= Money -_-
Nah..
Wreo!!!!!! bravo chris235645_32 :D
5/5
not bad the song!
@mylinh47 Utopia (i think) is a place imaginary that does not exist, where there everything is good and perfect! :)
That´s why I came here as well... /)

@AcdcMan012 well your are right :S!!! my english are not the best because English is not my language! And thanks for the comment about the song!

True
I think there is no "china" in the Chris´ part of the 1st part, rather "trying a" or something like this :) but I am not sure though

WHY DOES IT RAIN RAIN RAIN IN UTOOOOOOOOOOOPIA
well if we start being accurate here, by claiming, that he does not own nothing, he actually just claims, that he owns SOMETHING, not EVERYTHING ;)
love it... makes perfectly sense... although I don't believe in the theory of God...
@mylinh47 any visionary system of political or social perfection.
I know it's a little late, but 'Utopia' means 'paradise'.
can someone explain me what does "utopia" mean?
Elementumlgnis I agree hence the reason why he didn't interfere till a young life was at stake
@TheBohnenstroh Ich denke Utopia ist da wo du es gern hättest :)
@TheBohnenstroh Nowhere..
@AcdcMan012 He didnt state that he doesnt own everything... the way you spell it out he does but look at what he typed ****I OWN NOTHING **** it is not a double negative just a negative so his statment was true.

google and you'll find it for sure
What is the part supposed to be about where there is a girl by the side of the road and the car pulls up with the man inside and then she goes in the car ? !
