"In Another Land" is a song by the Rolling Stones, and the third track on their album Their Satanic Majesties Request. In America, London Records released it as a single a week before the album.

Written by bassist Bill Wyman, "In Another Land" is the only Rolling Stones song to feature Wyman on lead vocals, and one of only three Rolling Stones songs he wrote (the others being "Downtown Suzie" and the unreleased "Goodbye Girl"). The single was released in December 1967, credited to Bill Wyman, with the Stones' "The Lantern" as the B-side.{{sfn|Eder|1989|p=72}} It peaked at number 87 on the US singles chart.{{citation needed|date=February 2015}}

Background

The song was recorded on a night when Wyman had shown up to the studio and found that the session had been cancelled. Feeling frustrated that he had potentially wasted time in driving to the studio, engineer Glyn Johns asked him if he had anything that he'd like to record. "I'd been messing with this song. It was a bit{{nbsp}}... what I thought was kind of spacy, you know{{nbsp}}... a bit kind of Satanic Majesties-like. And psychedelic in a way."{{attribution needed|date=June 2018}}

Lyrically, Wyman stated that "The idea for the song is about this guy who wakes up from a dream and finds himself in another dream."{{attribution needed|date=June 2018}} The song describes events that transpire in a dreamlike state:

{{poemquote|

We walked across the sand

And the sea and the sky and the castles were blue

I stood and held your hand

And the spray flew high and the feathers floated by

I stood and held your hand{{sfn|Eder|1989|p=51}}}}

Johns showed the song to Mick Jagger, Keith Richards, and Brian Jones, who all liked it and decided to include it on the record.

The musicians on the song are Wyman on lead vocals, with Steve Marriott of the Small Faces on guitar and backing vocals, Nicky Hopkins on keyboards, Charlie Watts on drums, and Jagger adding backing vocals.{{sfn|Eder|1989|p=72}}

At the conclusion of the track as heard on the album, Wyman himself can be heard snoring. He was unaware this had been tagged onto his song until he first played the completed album. He learned later that one night when he had fallen asleep in the studio, Jagger and Richards miked him up and recorded him snoring, and stuck it onto his track as a joke. This does not appear on the single.
