You're Only As Free As You Feel

-

If you own some old Jefferson Airplane albums, go play the song called Pretty As You Feel.

-

It is available currently from Amazon on the CD called Bark which was originally released in 1971.

One time in Germany I heard the song in English. And I would have sworn that it was Jefferson Airplane, but maybe not. Instead of the lyrics saying Your'e Only As Pretty As You Feel they had been changed to You're Only As Free As You Feel.

-

It really is true. Nelson Mandela felt free even when he was in prison. Some people with good jobs and everything going for them do not feel free.

-

I've looked extensively for who it is that recorded that pirate version, but with no success so far.
