"Make Your Own Kind of Music" is a song by American singer Cass Elliot released in September 1969 by Dunhill Records. It was written by Barry Mann and Cynthia Weil, with production by Steve Barri. In the United States, "Make Your Own Kind of Music" was a Top 40 hit, peaking at number 36 on the Billboard Hot 100. Largely viewed as a commercial disappointment despite strong airplay on U.S. Top 40 radio stations in November 1969, the song found new life in the 2000s thanks to its use in TV shows such as "Lost" and feature film "Free Guy." Another film featuring actor Ryan Reynolds, Deadpool & Wolverine, featured Paloma Faith's remake of Cass Elliot's single in an official promotional trailer.
