My Life’s Soundtrack Part 42 – I Wanna Be Free by The Monkees

Here’s another song you can play at my funeral. This was my favorite Monkee song, my favorite Boyce & Hart song, and a personal theme song. To this day, when this song comes on the radio, I have to stop whatever I’m doing and listen all the way through. It’s like I’m in a trance. I guess it just touches some relaxation place in my brain that shoots out those “happy” chemicals…


If you loved The Monkees and this song, here’s something cool…

One thing I must say about The Monkees: they certainly put every scrap of studio and concert recording they could possibly find onto CD’s. You can hear damn nearly every fart and belch they ever did into a microphone if you buy all the box sets and reissue discs. What a fun band!
