Write-Up:
This song had similar simultaneous release with another version of the same song so I'm not 100% which came first. The other version is more Country Rock than Pop Rock but both sing of a place in the Himalayas that is cited in some ancient texts as a place of enlightenment. I guess the lyrics and story are a metaphor for journeying to a place where kindness and cooperation are ideal. Supposedly there is an actual temple in Peru that was cited as the original location of the ancient texts. The song is quite recognizable but the band isn't all that common imo.
