"Land of Sunshine" is the opening track to Angel Dust, the fourth studio album by American rock band Faith No More. It was released as a promo single in 1992 along with "Midlife Crisis" and has been compared in its opening style to "From out of Nowhere", the opening track and first single off the band's previous studio album The Real Thing. The songs lyrics contain, amongst other things, questions from Scientology personality tests, with one of them, the question "Does emotional music have quite an effect on you?", being described by Tom Sinclair of Rolling Stone as "the perfect tag line for Angel Dust". The song was also one of the three key songs picked out by Robert Christgau from the album in his review, the two others being "Midlife Crisis" and "Midnight Cowboy".
You have a winning way, so keep it

You are an angel heading for a land of sunshine
And fortune us smiling upon you
Prepare for a series of comfortable miracles
From fasting to feasting
And life to you is a dashing, bold adventure

Pat yourself on the back and give yourself a handshake
Cuz everything is not yet lost
