"I'm Free" is a song by the Rolling Stones written by Mick Jagger and Keith Richards, first released as the final track on the UK Out of Our Heads album on 24 September 1965. It was later placed on the December's Children (And Everybody's) album in the United States.
It has been covered by several artists, including Chris Farlowe on his album The Art of Chris Farlowe (1966); Wilmer and the Dukes, who made it a regional hit in upper New York state in 1969; and by The Soup Dragons, who took their version to #5 UK and #79 US in 1990. In 2007, it was also used as a jingle to the Chase Freedom credit card advertisement.
Rolling Stones recorded a re-worked acoustic version for their 1995 live album Stripped.
