It was fun when this came out because it was different from their usual. One of their strengths, imho, is that they continue to experiment and stretch themselves. A little thing you might appreciate is that they always put the name of the original artist and song before they name themselves. Much respect.
They are too cute! 🥰 Not a burp tho! 😂😂😂😂😂😂 You crack me up! ❤ I LOVE when you react to Home Free so much! I believe they performed this on the Opry stage the same night Keith Urban was there performing. 😏 Keep em coming darlin! 😘
IKR? Sir, I just love you so much! Your reactions at times are priceless! "I" appreciate how much "you" appreciate our guys! Thank you very much and God bless you greatly!❤️🍟
Misty Mountains with PETER Hollens is an amazing collaboration. Especially since you like Tim Foust. You will love the base line. Thanks for another a great reaction.
Their arranger/producer, Darren Rust, was and is in a legendary a cappella group The Blenders. He was also the hapless homeowner in Grandma Got Run Over by a Reindeer (you'll want to see it).
I love this song by our boys. Their movements remind me of The Temptations. So many wonderful memories. Love Home Free, like you say never heard 1 bad song.
They've always been amazing arrangers, but the "6th" HF member producer Darren Rust has helped them arrange more the last 2-3 yrs, cuz they're touring globally, so HF doesn't have as much time.. This song is 🔥🔥🔥, Rob's sweet tenor, Adam's crazy bboxing & Tim's insane bass line =💜💜
There is a lot of live stuff out there if you'd like to see some of it. Home Fries are always willing to sit through another live video... LOL Just let us know if and when you want them. I always enjoy your reactions. Thank you! ^_^
Loved the reaction as usual! As an engineer and producer you need to get hip to Darren Rust. The man is a genius. "How Great Thou Art" was a Darren Rust arrangement. He is at the console in their stunning "Auld Lang Syne" video. Home Free often introduces him as their sixth member. Check him out on stage with his group The Blenders doing the heavy vocal and writing lifting on "Lean On Me" (ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-9pprRV_MQJo.html) and an incredible version of "I Wonder As I Wander" (ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-d1jwwksbTLs.html). His writing is impeccable and his engineering is some of the purest, cleanest, and truest anywhere. I know you're swamped. Take your time. I've said many times I've never begrudged a busy musician in my life. I've envied a few but never begrudged! Bottom line -- be true to what honors you. We're here when you are ready. Blessings.
I love watching that smile you do when something really impresses you, and I adore that you rewind to watch that part again just to react to it again. ❤️
What can a person say about Home Free that hasn't been said? They have a song for just about every genre and every mood. Their versatility is insane! ❤
You get lots of requests for them because they're freaking awesome! LOL Another one to add to your list, if you've not already done it, is "Boondock/Fishin' In The Dark".
Yes! HF meets the Temps!! I love this song & video! Keith Urban gave them a shout-out too. So cool! I was waiting for that growl note & you did NOT disappoint!! 😄 I love the choreo move on that note as well. I'm so glad you mentioned the production aspect. So many people complain that their official releases are over produced & it takes away from the true a capella nature. That's nuts!! Every artist tweaks their releases for the best possible sound recording; why can't a capella do that?? As long as it sounds as good live, who cares? And it does! There's very little that ever seems missing in their live performances. Darren Rust, their producer, also has a band. They sing both, a capella, & with an instrumental background. They're really good too (The Blenders). Darren shows up in a few of HF's videos; God Blessed Texas, Aud Lang Syne, & most of all in, Grandma Got Run Over By A Reindeer. He's a great producer (esp for a capella since he knows it so well). Thx so much for the reaction. I had another huge smile thru it!!
I cant say enough about these guys. Every cover is on point when you hear them there is no doubt who they are but they stay true to the essence , the soul of the song.
Home Free From the Vault Episode 10 shows their choreographer Kristin Denehy putting them through their paces learning the dance steps for this video. I recommend the series which can be described as the camera behind the camera since it often shows their cameraman and their director during the filming of what is in their videos. They're scheduled to be released the first Monday of every month (although that's often skipped) and number 23 just dropped a few days ago.
Oh my goodness your reaction at 5:40 is just priceless, Tim "Subwoofer" strikes again to hit that spot in your psyche that only 'basso profundo' can strike....LOL more please...
Thank you for putting songs out there even your life isn't what you want but we all struggle thank you. keep bringing the music I watching them over and over Thank You
I just gotta say, your facial expressions crack me up. I love your reactions even though I mainly watch Home Free vids but I watch most country songs. Keep it up my friend. 😃
You and i did a wacky laugh at the same time which made me laugh more.... great reaction. Knowing your love of those low notes.... Tim's lowest recorded note (last i knew) was in "Sold!" I forget his name, but they consider him their 6th member, ... anyway, the guy whose name I'm forgetting, does a lot of their arrangements and also works as an ear and helps mix/produce most of their songs. He has an amazing ear and really understands how to get the beautiful blend. He's the first door they knock on in "Grandma got run over by a reindeer" and you "see him" mixing them while they are recording in the sound room on Auld Lang Syne (which will take your breath away.) Anyway. It just started snowing here in Indiana and I'd better stop goofing off and carry my groceries inside and get ready for work. Keep up the great reactions. I also really appreciate your producer take on the reactions. I know you aren't much of a Christmas guy, so here is a little off the wall Grinchy reaction request 😉 Lindsey Sterling "The Grinch " If you ever get a chance, you might enjoy some Post Modern Jukebox as well...
Love, love, love their cover of this song!! Rob’s vocals really were stellar! When you mentioned their Temptations’ style of dance, I thought this sounded like that style of music. Love that 60’s and 70’s Motown sound. Your reaction was partly amusing in the way you kept going back for more of Tim’s rumbles. We can never get enough, either. Thank you for reacting to this one.
I just love watching your expressive face and eyes and you know I enjoy your producer-and-engineer comments. And you have such a smooth voice. Another great reaction.
THAT!!! That sneaky little smile.....not the first reaction video I watched but the second one where I saw that smile, I subscribed. Love your reactions 💖💖 thanks.
I love their cover of this song but I would really like for you to react to Keith Urban doing this song, there is also a video of him singing this to one of his fans that were in the hospital (hospice) and could not go to his concert. He stopped and sang to her on his way to his performance. I really appreciate him taking the time even if I did not know here personally. It really speaks to his character.
I love the way they decided to give this song a Motown vibe. I could picture the Temptations in those moves, too. I love your reactions. In fact I can't hit play fast enough, when one comes up. Like you did here, I play your reactions back several times, hoping I didn't miss anything. So...Thank you, for another fantastic reaction.
Just made the connection between Home Free version and Keith Urban’s version. The dance moves are a play off of the lady on the dance floor in the original. Very Cool.
LOL! I think we might be related because watching you roll that back and smile and then do it again, was almost exactly what I did when I first saw this!! I'm loving your reactions!!!
The funny thing is, that everyone comments on Rob's, Chance's and Tim's voices, and low notes, I think that Adam's and Austin's high notes ar so pich perfect and beautyfull.
Great reaction! I think it's great when you take it back to listen again. And again, lol. I do the same thing they are just that impressive. I know you've reacted to SRV's 'Look at Little Sister' but I recommend same song with SRV and Jeff Healey. I searched to see and didn't see it and if you have my apologies. I would then recommend Jeff Healey 'See the Light' and 'Hoochie Coochie Man' live at Montreux. And any Home Free you haven't heard yet. 'Seven Bridges Road' .... ?
Thank you for your great reactions! Oh, and If you haven't already, and you really want to hear Tim drop it low and hold it... look for their cover of John Michael Montgomery's SOLD! I agree with all the other Home Fries, go see them live. You can feel them from the soles of your feet to the top of your head, and Tim's bass truly does vibrate the floor.
You got around to my request!!!!! I love this version because of the motown throwback style plus the choreography. Love you and your reaction...this means a lot.
Hey, Drama, I think this song would be one that you could absolutely kill it with with your awesome singing talent too! I can totally picture you doing this.
It doesn't matter what you say before after or during a video. We come back because of the familiarity of your reactions , and quite simply the love we all have for you,and your ability to just be human and not put on the cliche face and comments and just be real
I must say that you are always a refreshing relief from a hard day. I know that I can put on your video and get an honest response. You draws us in to your experience with your wonderful smile and replays of the outstanding parts. Never let anyone pressure you in to changing. Even if I might have a different opinion on a video, not that I have yet, I will be comfortable in agreeing to disagree.
I know others have said the same thing, but your reaction to the low bass notes is really fun. Pretty much can't resist smiling back at your grin in those moments. :)
Yea that one was epic lol and yea, I know what you mean. I often wonder what all I'm gonna be able to do. I come from a one horse town that pretty much only cares about football.There were no private lessons near me, nor would my mom have had the money for them, so aside from a good band director, and some music based stuff I got in college, I taught myself or, just recently, I got from watching vocal coach reactions to Home Free and other really awesome singers.
I was SO skeptical, avoided listening to this one for a long time because the original is one of my favorite songs, but they did a phenomenal job and did it in such a way that I don't HAVE to compare them. Thank you for this reaction.
Loved this song, and the choreography. I can't imagine why these men claim that they cannot dance. From what I just witnessed, they are all movers and shakers. I especially liked Adam Chances little solo and wonder why he doesn't sing more of them. He has a beautiful smile, flirty wink, and is sexy as hell. I am eighty years old, but I can still look!.....Darlene
Great reaction and comments home fries including myself are right. You need to see them live! They are FANTASTIC. I also love your reactions!! Keep up the great work. Can't easily to set the next Home Free video lol
