The song was a top 10 hit in Europe, reaching number four in Austria (7), Finland (7), Germany (8) and Switzerland (4). On the Eurochart Hot 100, it peaked at number 15 in November 1995, ending up as number 57 on its year-end chart. Outside Europe, "Freedom" charted in Australia (93). The female singers are Natascha Wright and Lisa Noya. Alex Trime and Sven Delgado produced the song. Its music video was directed by Frank Paul Husmann-Labusga[1] who had previously directed the videos for "Let the Dream Come True" and "There Is a Party". "Freedom" sold to Gold in Germany.[2]
Pan-European magazine Music & Media praised the song for its "catchy chorus and [...] instantly recognizable melody".[3] In their review of the There Is a Party album, the song was deemed "a gambler's best bet."[4]
