You've probably been wondering about the song in the most recent Target "Back-to-School" commercial...
It's "Free to Be", by the New Seekers, the early-70s reincarnation of the great Australian 60's folk band The Seekers, featuring the very appealing Scottish vocalist Eve Graham. The New Seekers had several hits on both sides of the Atlantic, including "I'd Like to Teach the World to Sing", which was originally a Coca Cola commercial, but the "Free to Be" song was originally the theme to a 1974 Marlo Thomas children's TV special.
The song has enjoyed a cult following since then, even though it was never an actual release by the New Seekers. Enjoy:
