Land (song)

"Land" was a one-off charity single released in 1993, credited to The Tragically Hip, Midnight Oil, Crash Vegas, Hothouse Flowers and Daniel Lanois. All five artists were part of that year's Another Roadside Attraction tour.

The song was written and recorded to protest the logging industry practice of clearcutting in the rainforests of British Columbia.
