"Foreign Land" is a song by Australian rock band, Eskimo Joe.

It was released in April 2009 as the lead single from their fourth studio album Inshalla.

[citation needed] The song was written as a tribute to Australian actor Heath Ledger, who died in January 2008.

The lyrics were borne from a poignant day in New York City when an emotionally drained Temperley stepped out for a walk.

He was from Perth and we were in New York City, this big foreign city, and I felt this immense loneliness of this kid from my hometown dying by himself there.The song has been used on TV shows such as The World's Strictest Parents and Sunday Night.
