Born Free - who sang it?

[Guinevere]

The boyfriend's sister is getting married in 2 weeks and this is her favourite song. I want the DJ to play it at the reception but don't know who sang it, originally or on the best known version.
iTunes has lots of different covers, so any suggestions on the best version would be appreciated!

The film theme - and best version - is by Matt Munroe, you should be able to get it on any of his Greatest Hits collections.

Not meaning to be pedantic (sorry Andy!) but just in case you're searching for it, his surname is spelt MONRO.

Of course, you could always have the Vic Reeves version if your prefer. No, maybe not. :-)

*if you prefer - what was that about spelling?

I've got a CD with Andy Williams singing it and I think it is just as good as the MM version.

[Guinevere]

Thank you all for the replies. She loves the film so it will have to be the Matt Monro version.
Thanks again!

You're quite right littleoldme, I stand corrected. Not pedantic at all!
