"Free Love Freeway" is a song written by Ricky Gervais, who starred as David Brent in the British comedy series ''The Office''. Gervais first performed the song as Brent in Series 1, Episode 4 (titled ''Training'') of the show. ==Versions== The first version of "Free Love Freeway" was played by Brent during an employee training seminar. He went home to get his guitar and entertained his employees with his original songs he used to sing with his rock band Foregone Conclusion. In 2004, Noel Gallagher, the former lead songwriter and guitarist for the rock group Oasis, recorded the song with Gervais in a professional studio. The new full band recording, which has an added verse, is available as a special feature of the Christmas Special DVD of ''The Office''. A longer, one take version of the song is also available as an easter egg on the series one DVD. Gervais and Mackenzie Crook (as Gareth Keenan) subsequently performed the song at the Concert for Diana at Wembley Stadium in 2007. In January 2009, Gervais was a guest on BravoTV ''Inside the Actors Studio'' season 15 with James Lipton, where at one point of the interview he answered Lipton's question as Brent his character from The Office. Then Brent obliged the audience by singing his latest song Freelove Freeway to the tune of a guitar supplied to him by Lipton.〔(【引用サイトリンク】title=Inside the Actors Studio Season 15 Ricky Gervais )〕 In 2013, Gervais brought back his famous character Brent on his YouTube channel in a web series Learn Guitar with David Brent.
