Walk away before you throw your life away. So true for a number of relationships.

[@milleniumremix]

when in 1997 I was 27 years old. I always drive the car to go to work projects with my father.. he asked me to buy Matt Monroe cassettes for him to remember when he was young when he worked in Hong Kong in the 60s. and I just found out that the singer of the song Born Free is Matt Monroe. four years ago my father left us going to the creator at the age of 88.. rest in peace, sir, in heaven.. amen

[@evangelinerama2968]

I'm one of the lucky one to meet Matt Munro in my Home town in Cebu City Philippines in 1972 I am one of the usherette during his concert in Cebu City after his concert he meet us we are all in our teen-age year he give us all a pick on the cheek 😄

[@angelapietras1235]

Born free was one of the best true movies I had ever seen. So born free lives to me this day,great grandma who still takes animals in who people don’t want.I love that song with emotion after watching the movie as a kid.

[@deosinggripman436]

I'm 68 but this 70s compilation has made me feel like a 20 year old again! I can't help but bop around to the beat! So many of these songs take me back to particular places and the people I was with at that time. Better than any blood pressure pills or statins!

[@shaunwakefield9793]

Both Matt Monroe and Petula Clark are two of the best singers/performers of their time, no dramas or screeching just pure singing with perfect pitch and diction we will never see theses polished singers again.

[@stephencox4224]

One of the first cinema experiences I had was seeing Born Free and the song has stuck with me ever since such a great performance there are true classics that are timeless and this is one of them along with the artist who performed them, There will rarely be in the future more Matt Monroes, Bobby Hatfields, and the likes of those with pure unadulterated talent that no matter how hard they try can never be replaced by technology.
