"Freedom" is a song by Swiss Eurodance artist DJ BoBo, released in September 1995 by several labels as the fourth and final single from his second album, There Is a Party (1994). The song was co-written and co-produced by the artist, featuring vocals by Natascha Wright and Lisa Noya. It was a European top-10 hit in Austria, Finland, Germany and Switzerland. On the Eurochart Hot 100, the single peaked at number 15 in November 1995, ending up as number 57 on its year-end chart. "Freedom" was certified gold in Germany after 250,000 singles were sold there.[1] Outside Europe, it charted in Australia. The accompanying music video was directed by Frank Paul Husmann-Labusga.

Pan-European magazine Music & Media wrote that "DJ Bobo aka Rene Baumann never fails to deliver the hits. Once again, a catchy chorus and an instantly recognizable melody superimposed on a driving beat provide the goods needed."[2] In their review of the There Is a Party album, the song was named "a gambler's best bet."[3]
