"I Feel Free" is a song by British Blues Rock band, Cream . It was the first track on the US version of their debut album, '' Fresh Cream '' ( 1966 ), and the band's second hit Single . It was written by Pete Brown and Jack Bruce and was the first of many times Bruce and Brown would collaborate. "I Feel Free" was an important song in relation to the band. The song contained one of the more simple but enjoyable brief guitar solos by Eric Clapton , and became effectively the first song to showcase what the band had to offer. Though much of Cream's repertoire consisted of Blues-rock , this song represented their Rock and Psychedelic aspects when they released it as a single after the surprising single release of "Wrapping Paper". The Second Coming covered the song, which later appeared on The Allman Brothers Band 's box set 'Dreams'. The Amboy Dukes, a band widely known for its guitarist Ted Nugent, covered the song on their eponymous album. David Bowie performed this song during his Ziggy Stardust tour in 1972. 21 years later he recorded a version of the song for his '' Black Tie White Noise '' album, and it featured Mick Ronson on guitar for the first time on a Bowie recording since 1973. Bowie's version was also released on a radio promo release of the single " Jump They Say ". In 1995 a live version recorded at Kingston Polytechnic, London, May 6 1972 was released on '' RarestOneBowie ''. The song was covered by Belinda Carlisle in 1987 on her second solo album, '' Heaven On Earth '' and her version was produced by Rick Nowels . It was the fourth song released from the album, only released in the United States in the formats of CD Single , 7" Single and 12" Single . It was not Carlisle's most successful single, only peaking at number eighty-eight. The extended version of the song appears in the 1988 hit-film '' License To Drive ''. OTHER VERSIONS Actor/producer Jon Doscher on his self-titled album '' Cigarette Sandwich '', and by the Foo Fighters on their 2005 EP, '' Five Songs And A Cover ''. The song is featured at the end of The Sopranos episode Isabella and is used in a commercial for the appliance company Warner's Stellian. Marcella Detroit , who worked with Eric Clapton during his solo career in the 70s and 80s frequently and co-wrote "Lay Down Sally", covered I Feel Free and released it on her and Elton John 's duet single "Ain't Nothing Like The Real Thing" in 1994.
