Born Free LINKS ABOUT THIS SONG music: John Barry lyrics: Don Black release date of this version: June 29, 2024 length: 2 min 25 sec vocals: Chris Tong karaoke arrangement: Harmonic Horizons My cover of Born Free is another birthday present for my intimate partner, Mary, who loved this song (and its vision and feeling of freedom) as a kid. It uses a karaoke version based on Andy William's version of the song, which is more soaring and loose than Matt Munro's original version. Those more familiar with John Barry as the composer of the jazzy James Bond theme and James Bond movie songs like Goldfinger may be pleasantly surprised at the softer side to the composer that is revealed in this song. LYRICS Born free As free as the wind blows As free as the grass grows Born free to follow your heart Live free And beauty surrounds you The world still astounds you Each time you look at a star Stay free Where no walls divide you You're free as a roaring tide so there's no need to hide Born free And life is worth living But only worth living 'Cause you're born free Stay free Where no walls divide you You're free as a roaring tide so there's no need to hide Born free And life is worth living But only worth living 'Cause you're born free |
