Are there any songs about utopian society?
Utopian songs are songs that describe an ideal society (for example where there is freedom from hunger, inequality, violence, sickness and where people pursue happiness, fulfillment and mutually supportive community life). A distopia, technically, is a utopia that has gone horribly wrong, at least for a segment of the population. For example the US was founded on the utopian principles of life, liberty and the pursuit of happiness, yet enslaved Africans and committed genocide against Native Americans. Life, liberty and the pursuit of happiness have been more accessible for straight, white, christian men (as a group) than for everyone else and we can see the current vast economic inequality between the 1% and the 99% as distopic.
Here are some songs that describe an ideal society:
Big Rock Candy Mountain (Traditional),
Dreamland (Bunny Wailer),
Funky President (James Brown),
I'll Take You There (Staple Singers),
Imagine (John Lennon).
Somewhere Over the Rainbow (Judy Garland, Israel Kamakawiwo`ole),
Yes We Can (Allen Toussaint, The Pointer Sisters)

People can be satisfied with what they have, I do not believe that everyone wants or desires much more than what they have achieved. I believe that people at the extremes of wealth and poverty desire or require more either through greed or want.
I have worked in recruitment and social work and have discussed with individuals their aims and asperations. Most people want to remain static but want a change rather than more.
However, I think that the desire for more is what keeps the human race moving forward. We all need somthing to strive for, it may not be monetary, it can be the desire for more knowledge, time, health, etc.

The frame narrative in my opinion does not effectively separate Thomas More from the ideas of Utopia. It may be the period in which it was written in, but to me it's difficult to see the line between his real views and his "Utopian" views. For example, he persecuted the Protestants in reality, but in Utopia, religion is glitter and rainbows, and it makes it hard to comprehend his ideas.
