Alex Lloyd wrote "Coming Home" on his own, and EMI released it in August 2003 as a single from his album Distant Light. It did the Australian artist proud at home, winning him the 2003 ARIA award for Best Male Artist and climbing to 24 on the ARIA singles chart; the CD single threw in "Golden Slumbers", "Bird on a Wire" and an acoustic "America".
It has had a long life away from the charts, too. SEN 1116's Run Home program uses it as a theme, Bondi Vet on Network Ten opens with it, and in February 2014 it returned as "Coming Home (To Richmond)" for the Richmond AFL club's membership campaign, its video trailing Tigers fans and player Brandon Ellis through a game day.
