1- The Free was formed in 1994 by Felix J. Gauder and Olaf Roberto Bossi. Together with Charles Simmons, the frontman and singer of The Free; they composed and arranged their music in a high-tech home studio. They spent weeks composing and arranging intro, strophe, bridge and refrain so it should be a perfect rhythm, with groove and melody all in one piece. With meticulous detail work and with great enthusiasm the result was the typical The Free chart- and club compatible Euro-Pop-Housemusic style and also some sentimental Soul-ballads.
Members were Charles Simmons (Vocals - rap), Ayla J. (Vocals), Virginia Michailoglou (Profi Dancer) and Nejet Yolcu (Profi Dancer). They recorded the album "Crazy Worlds" and hits like "Lover On The Line"
2- The Free was founded in 1967 in Michigan. Their graetest hits were „(Day Of) Decision For Lost Soul Blue“ and „What Makes You“ — which both can be found on a single released by Marquee later on by Atco.
3. The Free (1968-1969) was a short-lived soul ensemble from The Netherlands. The Free was a 14-piece coverband from Rotterdam, deep into American soul. Their leadsinger Roy Nickelson, born on Aruba, was very much into Otis Redding, Wilson Pickett and the early James Brown material. The group, already existing as Free Unlimited, became a birthday present in 1968 for Ide de Jong, who wanted to manage a band when he turned 18, and his father, head of the Algemene Bank Nederland, saw no problem in arranging this for his son. Thus they became The Free, made an album (the Funky Free, on Philips, 1969) produced by Fred Haayen (the man behind Golden Earring); supported Aretha Franklin during her Dutch concert in '68 (with the Paay Sisters as backing vocalists); and even performed at the Montreux Jazz Festival in '69. Their funky track Soul Party only came out as a single in '68. Near the end of their two year existence, Ferry Maat was their keyboardist; Maat would later become a famous radio dj with his Soul Show. Guitarist Egon Verhoeven played in Hans Dulfer's group during most of the '90's and nowadays is in a group called Mastodon, together with Free's leader and keyboardist Peter Vlietstra, who became a history teacher. Roy Nickelson died in 2002.

Something to light up your heart
A story that you'd love to live for

This is your Life, and it's up to you what you make it
So do make it count and do make it something that's worthy of life to you
So do make it count and do make it anything that's exciting to you
Allow your desire to be
Allow to release any doubt or lies to support the flow that's setting you free
Allow some mistakes to be made if you'd learn
Allow to be kind to yourself cause you'd earn
Abundance of flow and ease and peace where life is a playground where joy's found

Lyrics:
I miss my home
My friendly neighbor
I missed the hands that beat us down to raise us
I missed the struggle
that kept us on are paper
Don't miss the game but I do miss the players
I miss my cousin his jokes the lamest
But by god they kept us laughing through the pain
I miss the loving that never ask for favours
And if it do it's to keep 'em in are prayers
Va - Va - Va - Voom
I miss my room
I miss the posters of 50 Cent and Ja Rule
I miss those dreams that were broken into two
But this is life - What to do?
PAPA - PAPA - RARA
What's the matter huh?
Life is hard
okay okay Gon' get harder
Yea
Bae don't cry
Dry your eyes
No rewinds
This is life
La ya ya yay
That thing is nice
La ya ya yay
No rewinds
La ya ya yay
That thing is nice
La ya ya yay
No rewinds
I'm probably gonna be late on rent again
I'll probably light the stove and wait for heat to ascend
I'll probably lose my vibe and break down intense
I'll probably punch the walls and take it out on my friends
I'll probably break your heart, but this time it ain't gonna mend
you'll probably claim you busy to ever see me again
I'll wear a coat of pride just to hide away the pain
probably swear that it be sunny in the middle of the rain
ooooh child lost in the wild
You can never find yourself if you have not been exiled
Mama say you did well Papa say that you prevailed
But now they withered away
far away
PAPA - PAPA - RARA
What's the matter huh?
Life is hard
okay okay
Gon' get harder
Yea
Bae don't cry
Dry your eyes
No rewinds
This is life
La ya ya yay
That thing is nice
