General Comment I think this is my absolute favorite inspirational song ever. Honestly, I can't even verbalize how much I love this song. It's honest, it's to the point, yet it's optimistic. This song was released and won awards before I was even born, so I obviously don't remember the controversy, but I am glad that Garth supports gay rights in this song - sadly, not many country artists seem to do that, because, like collegeguy said, it's a generally conservative audience and generally conservative artists.

Country music - and music in general - needs more artists like Garth Brooks. This song provokes such deep emotion, it's probably the most stirring and emotion-filled - yet simultaneously uplifting - song I know. This song can be uplifting, and at the same time, quite saddening.

Another thing great about this song is that it's completely true. When we're free of racism, greediness, world hunger, homophobia, pollution, and every other topic addressed in the song, then we'll truly be free.

BTW, the song's video is also amazing. Like the song, it's saddening, but optimistic at the same time. General Comment Garth brooks did amazingly well with this song.

I love the gospel sound it has. Its good old country mixed with the wonderful gospel sound! General Comment According to what he's said in interviews and how I've always taken The "when we're free to love anyone we choose" line is it's not just about gay rights, but about say two people of different religions, or an interracial relationship as well.

It's a great idealic song. It'll be thousands and thousands of years if it ever happens imo. Artists - G. Rate These Lyrics. We do not have any tags for We Shall Be Free lyrics. Why not add your own?
