Comments: "Freedom" was released in July of 1982 by Mark & Mike under the pseudonym "Thundertumbs And The Toetsenman", and came from an idea Mark King had during rehearsals for the 'Love Games' single. Originally slated to be the lead single from Mark's first solo release (Influences), this tune didn't make it on that album. It's backed with "Freedom A GoGo", a funkier, instrumental version of the tune. It features a Mike Lindup synth melody as well as a funky bass solo by Mark . The 'rap' verse in the middle of the song should be familiar to fans show have heard any of Level 42' early performances of "Turn It On".
