The Specials - Freedom Highway

Specials - Videos & Lyrics

Specials

Written by Pops Staples and performed by the Staples Singers in 1965. The song was written for the Selma to Montgomery march for voting rights.

"Freedom Highway feels very optimistic. Everybody's marching for something. There were so many protests last year and they're still ongoing. People are protesting about very serious issues, people protesting about ridiculous issues. But overall there is that thing in your head that you're on a path, or highway, and you're searching for freedom." - Terry Hall
