I saw Home Free in Arkansas for the Christmas show. The audience was respectfully quiet for the Christmas music, then you switched to the Butts Remix. A 5 year old boy in front of me yelled into the silence, "This is my favorite song!" Everyone in our area laughed so hard, and his parents wanted to hide. So funny!
I read a lot of people recommending this video. When I 1st played it and Austin said that very 1st line, I stopped the video. I didn't want to watch a video in which the group of men would focus on women's butts. So, I skipped the video. Months later, I watched a reactor react to this video. When I realized it was on the guys' butts and not the women, I was laughing throughout the show. It was just so funny. After this video, I truly learned to appreciate and respect Home Free. I've never doubted any of their music (and videos) after this.
Right from the start of the song I knew, this could be outrageously funny!!! Austin and Tim looked so dorky funny! I was laughing so hard I didn't realize tears were flowing from my eyes. I've never laughed so hard like this, I felt pain in my chest. I have to take a pause because I just had a major surgery on my breasts. DON'T WORRY, I AM OK. I was cleared by my oncologist from the disease. THANK YOU VERY MUCH FOR THE ENTERMAINMENT!!! But I guess, I have to stay away for a little while from your funny videos. Give me 6 months, I will watch 'em all. GOD BLESS YOU GUYS!!!
Brilliant! -- The arrangement and seamless transitions --- and oh so good. HF's sound is just unmatched. Pulling-off Country is NOT easy by any stretch of the imagination ... others have TRIED but --- and I'll leave it right there. .... Then that leads us to HF's ability to pull-off any genre --- and it's so good!!!! For the record Chris --- for the last 5yrs, HF is pretty much all I listen to; so a big THANK YOU to you (and Adam). Exceptionally Phenomenal - Phenomenally Exceptional
I love you Chris Rupp You are so missed in this group of amazing men.. I have followed you since the beginning of this beautiful journey you put all your home fries on..God bless you and Adam for putting this amazing group together...God surely shines down on you..
I must have watched this about 30 times so far. Now the video "Brother" has more watches as it just makes me smile and Your brother just looks so cool and magical/
This is a fun one to watch other people react to it. I always end up playing “When do they spot Buegs?” whenever I see a reaction. You can normally tell by watching their face or they will pause and mention it. It’s like “Find the Chicken” but you can really only do it with this video.
So fabulous listening to you break this video down!! I've watched the video sooooo many times!!! Always makes me laugh!! I enjoy Home Free so much...super creative, talented and each with mad skilz set!!! ❤
This video is my favorite! I remember watching and having hysterical laughs surprised by each song chosen. I still don't get why it didn't go viral the way it deserves.
I love watching the videos of Home Free but I may enjoy watching reaction videos even more. One of the things that happens with great frequency is folks recognizing and reacting to the opening, then the look of shock on their face when Tim starts up with Honky Tonk Badonkadonk, especially if the reactor isn’t as familiar with country music. Y’all’s use of Baby Got Back’s baseline running seamlessly into Honky Tonk was genius!
Thanks Chris. I only discovered Home Free a few months ago. Yes I live under a rock. So I'm playing catch up and watching everything I can. Love the group! Love all you guys!♥️
This is one of my fave videos. Home Free isn't just a bunch of excellent vocalists. All you guys are entertainers! Charismatic, goofy and FUN while making sounds every so pleasant to our ears!
I became a Home Fry a few months ago from watching these reaction videos. So when I saw the outro for Thank God I’m a Country Boy I giggled when I saw Time holding a chicken because I was having Home Free chicken flashbacks to this video. 😂🐓. I have appreciated the respectful yet hilarious take of the video theme! It is one of the main reasons I am a huge fan. Thank you!
So it’s your fault! Damn you, I was on a 12 mile hike several years ago and I had this going through my head nearly the whole time, over and over and over. I guess that’s what happens when you hear a good song.
The scene with the girls teaching you guys to dance always brings up the memory of the girls teaching you on Sing Off LOL. I've said it before and I'll say it again, he may not show it much but Adam's got some moves.
Thank you for these reaction videos of your Home Free Days! It gives us insight to how much goes into the work Home Free produced and shows us how really talented you are. I have so much fun watching this video and pretty much watch every reaction video there is. I love to watch their faces when they realize it is a mashup of Butts songs! By the way, you should wear a cowboy hat more often. Good look on you!
This video is SO MUCH FUN!!! I LOVED your trip down memory lane on this one. There are so many things that people miss. You pointed out Tim eating the sammich. But almost everyone misses Austin sticking his tongue out at the beginning after "It's So Big!". lol Love This Video/Reaction/Review!!
Judging by your rendition of Amazing Grace you have certainly grown your bass timbre. It's so resonant & beautiful. 💕 I also love how all the songs in this blend so seamlessly at the end. Awesome arrangement. Hilarious mashup. Its great to see how all you acapella guys work with each other. It means more awesomeness for us. Thanks for all the background info. & also for your History of HF videos.
So I’m a massive Pentaholic and have just started venturing into Home Free and I’m so glad I have, this is one of my favourites and it’s awesome to get all the goss about it from you. I absolutely love the vibe you guys give this and it’s always a great thing to watch extremely talented people just have fun and muck around 🥰 thoroughly enjoying your reaction videos 😁
Pretty please talk about This Is How We Roll! I gotta know, who is the Lebowski fan? How did you pick who was going to be which character? Who made the costumes? The music is brilliant as usual, but the video is genius. The intersection of Home Free and The Big Lebowski is some sort of Lagrange point for fandom.
I always thought you were undervalued at Home Free. I felt so sorry for you at the Sing off. The others were named and specialized - the bass, the beard, the beast, the baby. Nothing to you. I found and find it unfair til today. So I'm very happy to see this 'baby' from you where you can show your many great talents. Even when I miss you at HF, I'm glad that you could make your own music and that you are successful with it. I loved every minute you were goofing around (and want to see and hear more, with or without HF) THANKS for sharing your experiences and thoughts with us. 😊❤️
I really enjoy your videos, Chris. Especially when you go over the old Home Free vids. Thank you so much for giving us these little tidbits, and behind the scenes info. I loved the Butts video. It's always been one of my favorites.
Someone commented they wished you could rejoin HF. You’re too busy for that but you could, and I bet, will, visit for collaborations now and again. Miss you in HF but enjoy everything you are doing now.
Love this so much!!! One of my favorite Home Free videos and medleys. Great job, Chris, on being so integral on its production and success. Plus, you look so cool and sexy with your short hair and cowboy hat and jeans.
This was just an all around fun song to watch and I bet you had as much fun doing it! Thanks Chris, for sharing your take on it with us. It’s always interesting to hear the extra details from the shoots...
You didn't mention Tim's headbanging at the beginning of "Fat Bottomed Girls", suggesting the sort of disagreement over style quite common in rock bands. Tim is going for goth heavy metal and looks with clear disapproval at Austin writhing on the floor in front man ecstasies. Just part of the immensely detailed and immensely funny of the medley. Thanks so much for your trip down memory lane and helpful explanations.
This continues to be one of my all time favorite funny Home Free videos. Vocals are amazing on this. Thanks for your hard work producing something with great longevity!
Awesome breakdown Chris. I really appreciated the little inside tidbits. I must have seen the Butts Remix/Medley 100+ times and it still makes me laugh !! You guys really created an iconic RU-vid music video. As for Beugs & Rob, on their podcast, I listen everytime they drop a new one
This song mix is epic. I'm curious why you guys didn't do a full cover of fat bottom girl . Was it the lyrics? I've never seen anyone that could do that cover except you guys. Everyone loves queen. if you guys ever got together an did it I'm betting it would go viral on all your social media platforms.
I just love it when you react/critique songs you’ve been in! Kind of like a mini behind the scenes thing! Love the little trivia facts, too! Thanks Chris and a BIG thank you for starting up Home Free way back when! You’ve brought me so much joy and laughter when I’ve needed it most in my life! Please keep on doing what you’re doing! Such a lifesaver for me! Keeps ‘old man depression’ away for sure! Take a bow! 🙏👏👏👏❤️🩹😍
This is one of the most entertaining videos I have ever seen. This was genius... I watched this about 10 times just for the entertainment factor. Then I began to realize the complexity involved in making this. The smooth transition from one song to another is amazing. And the way you guys sing and act is just so wonderful... such talent. I just love it. Thank you for such wonderful work. Sure miss you in the group.
This is always so much fun to watch every time I watch it. So much going on and I could tell you and the guys had lots of fun making the video for it too.
This is where I first heard about The Avid Indoorsmen. I now have several of their episodes on my "traveling" iPod to listen to when I'm out and about. Thank you. And thanks to you and the guys for your music and videos.
It took watching the video 10×'s before I could watch without crying(with laughter) !! Then I watched every "reaction" video on Utube...which has been hilarious !!! So sad when you ..the founder/phenomenal singer & AMAZING arranger left..I thot HFree would so lose quality/audience ...but the group was left in capable "hands" with Chance as your replacement...Sooo happy !! You have been given such an incredible gift ...thanks many times over for sharing it with the world !!! PS...my brother..top lawyer & amazing musician(very particular) listened to Do You Hear What I Hear..was Totally blown away...!!!!
Just Really Need to let you know that ALL OF YOU A-L-L of the Team that brings us Home Free I can not Thank you enough for being the Absolute Finest examples of How to Human ! You bring Joy and Hope in every single thing you do. It's appreciated I am so Proud of you !
Ether Butts Remix has always been one of my favorite videos, as well as All About That Bass. Also Grandma Got Run-over By a Reindeer! I love when you do these video reactions with videos you are in.
i have to watch this before I go to sleep again! This is probably the 2nd song I checked in HF channel and probably what got me hooked. So I guess that's your fault. Im on my way to my 2nd month as a Home Fry and looking forward to spend years as one (my record is 12 years and still counting). I also been doing things Im not accustomed to like following your social media and commenting on youtube videos. One of the reason that I love this video is I can see your sense of humor. And as someone pointed out, you guys did not sexualized the girls, I did have fun guessing whose butt is who in the video. I also loved it when you work with any VoicePlay members. I also loved the other two videos shot in this warehouse. Loved the addition of Buegs here, he's like the Stan Lee in Home Free video. He's easier to spot than the rooster. this is way too long and Im sorry for my English looking forward to more
Hey, Chris! Loved this fun video!! I loved laughing my “butt” off! lol I didn’t know Laine did the remix! I do remember that Voice Play was on the Sing Off with y’all, So happy y’all won!! Thanks for the flashback reaction! I enjoyed all of the intel on the filming! You’re looking well and I hope you stay safe and well!
Thanks for this Chris!! So great to learn even more about some of these older videos and how much fun you guys had. You mentioned the BTS video, which can still be found on youtube when you know where to look, as with about 8 others. Excited to know there will be one of your analyzing videos for Do You Hear coming up!! Wishing you well!
I would like you to react to a song by Diana Navarro the song is called "El perdón" she is a Spanish singer. Very versatile she sings different styles of music. With a very particular voice full of melismas.Saludos
I miss this one now that it's not in the line up. I also understand the need to move on and keep things new and interesting, but this one will always be a favorite of mine because it is so fun. Thanks! ^_^
I love you doing these HF video details....so much fun....and seems fun for you too! I miss you with them and hope that you do another song with them sooner than later....or maybe even be on their CMAS Special....the fans would LOVE that!
@@ChrisRuppOfficial I will.....I really will... and I hope that they listen. I dont think I am the only one who would love to see you join them on their c'mas special....after all without you, there would be no them!
