Freedom is a concept close to everybody’s heart; therefore it is no wonder, that so many people have written songs about it.
Here is a compiled list of my personal favourites. They are listed because I believe they give a strong message and get a positive statement across. Do take your time and look these up and have a listen. What do you think? Are your favourite songs about freedom listed? Or can you think of any more that you like?

This topic started off as 20 songs... Until I was reminded about the Lighthouse Family song. I had to add that song to the list, because it is so thought provoking.
