Wrong Planet was an even more pop-oriented album, and the song "Love Is the Answer" became Utopia's main set-closer. Love Is the Answer" later became a big hit for England Dan & John Ford Coley, charting No. 1 on the Billboard Adult Contemporary list in 1979, but the Utopia version failed to chart. Utopia had only one Billboard top 40 hit: "Set Me Free", from their best-selling album Adventures in Utopia (1979), peaking at No. 27 in the US in early 1980. The follow-up self-titled LP Utopia (1982) was the band's first album for Network and spread 15 tracks across an LP and a bonus unlisted EP. In addition, a video album was released. Unfortunately during this time Elektra/Asylum records decided to move their offices from New York to Los Angeles.
