"Live Your Life Be Free" is a song written by Rick Nowels and Ellen Shipley, produced by Nowels for Belinda Carlisle's fourth album Live Your Life Be Free (1991). The single reached the Top 20 in Australia, the UK, and Italy. The song was also an airplay hit in the UK, reaching a peak of #5, and also charted high on the singles chart, reaching its peak at #12. The album version features a 10-second intro sample of natural sounds (such as birds, crickets, etc.), which is omitted from the single version, but this is the only difference between the two. "Live Your Life Be Free" not only was the title track of Carlisle 1991 album, but also opened it, being its first track, while the single's B side, "Loneliness Game", closed it, being its eleventh and last song.
