The song was produced by Alan Osmond.[5] It followed the same basic arrangement as their previous string of rock hits and, like the other songs on The Plan, carried a Mormon undertone ("going home" being a euphemism for heaven, and one point mentioning being a space traveler in a veiled reference to Kolob).

gollark: I have my Discord data dump's messages data extracted, so now I just need to parse the useful data out, upload it to colab, and do things.
