"Land of the Living" is a song written by Tia Sillers and Wayland Patton. It was initially recorded by singer-songwriter Helen Darling for her second studio album West of Yesterday, which was cancelled following her getting dropped by Decca Nashville Records. It was then recorded by American country music artist Pam Tillis for her Greatest Hits compilation album, one of two new tracks for the collection. It was released on August 25, 1997, as the second and final single from the album via Arista Nashville.

The track hit number five on the US Billboard Hot Country Songs chart, becoming Tillis's thirteenth and to date, final top ten hit on the chart. "Land of the Living" would later receive a BMI award for being one of the most performed tracks of the year.
