FIRST TIME HEARING HOME FREE - Boyz II Men - End of the Road (COVER) | REACTION 

REQUEST MORE SONGS

Tim Faust_base, Adam Rupp_beat boxer, Rob Lundquist_lead tenor, Adam Chance_baritone, and Austin Brown_high tenor. But all 5 can beat box and all 5 can sing tenor. Tim is from Texas, Adam and Rob are from Minnesota, Chance is from Alabama and Austin is from Georgia. They can all sing lead and switch it up depending whose voice best suits that particular song.

Both versions are equally good. Boyz II Men won a Grammy for their version.

If you're in the mood for feel good songs, I would suggest Love Train or the Butts Remix. There are many more to choose from.

Rob went beast mode in this. Incredible cover.

Rob Lundquist really takes us to church at the end 💕

Shawn Stockman ( Boyz ll Men ) was a judge on the Sing Off in 2013 when Home Free won he absolutely loved the guys Tim ( Bass) Rob lead this song ( Tenor ) Austin second lead( High Tenor ) Chance ( Baritone/ Bass Adam ( Beatboxer) Home Free doesn’t have a lead singer. When it comes to choosing who will sing they each take turns on singing the song (except Adam ) and then choose who’s voice or voices suit the song the best also there is one other exception if it is a low bass or baritone song then that is for Tim or Chance 😊

#1-Tim Foust. Bad boy. Basso Profundo. His bass will rumble your soul, but he actually has a 5 octave range and sings everything from tenor to bass. Also a song writer. #2- Adam Rupp. Vocal Percussionist Extroidinaire, Freak of Nature, and creator of the no-monica. He is an avid D&D player, and is rumored to have swallowed an entire drum kit. He has an exceptional vocabulary of sounds. #3-Rob Lundquist. Aka...the Beard. Tenor. Classically trained in Opera. Viking fan. Gospel Rob will take you to church! #4- Adam Chance (Chance to avoid confusion with Adam Rupp). Baritone. Song Writer. Has a voice smooth as butter and loves sea shanties. #5 Austin Brown. The Golden Boy and baby of the group. Classically trained in Theatre. Song writer. Amazing high tenor. All the guys can beatbox to some extent, and they dont really have a lead singer. They go with whoever has the best voice for the song, and sometimes they each take a solo part. They dont do covers...they do upgrades! They also do originals of their own. I love the way they breathe new life into older songs and introduce them to younger generations. I love these guys because they are so personable and have a great sense of humor. Their music always makes me happy.😊

ROB says there are four vocalists that can solo and it is a tough decision to see who is going to be the lead. "We will all record the lead vocals," Lundquist says. "(Producer) Darren Rust will pick and choose what sounds best." The group's released 15 albums to date and have a long list of songs ready to perform

The only one of the group that isn't a "lead" singer is the beatboxer - by his choice. 1) Tim Foust - generally considered a bass, but he has a 5 octave range. 2) Adam Rupp - founder(with his brother Chris) of the group - beatboxer extraordinaire, considered a tenor, but has a range to rival Tim, and a lovely voice on the rare occasions that he solos at all. 3) Rob Lundquist - tenor - and considered by the rest of the group to have the best voice. R&B Rob, Gospel Rob, Opera Rob... 4) Adam Chance (called Chance to avoid confusion) - baritone/bass. Not quite as large a range as Tim, but can carry the bass when Tim is singing higher. The newest member of the group - joined in mid-2016. 5) Austin Brown - high tenor. HF makes every song their own - but they have plenty of original songs, too. I know people who grew up with B2M probably love theirs better, but HF's was the first version I heard (yes, I'm OLD!!) and I prefer it. It may be, also, that technology has improved since 2009. But I stand with my answer - I prefer HF.

Boyz II Men were so good for their time, and this song has been a for sure classic of theirs. Home free really did this song justice though. Rob really did a great job in honoring the original piece as well. Thanks for featuring it.

The more you follow these guys the more you will like them.

Austin Brown (high tenor) - skinny guy Rob Lundquist (tenor) - teddy bear with glasses Adam Chance (bass/baritone) - dark hair, goes by Chance Tim Foust (bass) - longer dark hair or shorter gray hair Adam Rupp (beatbox/drums) - light hair, goes by Adam

All 4 vocalists are lead singers! Even their beat boxer is an awesome singer. From left to right they are Tim (bass and lead vocals) Adam (beatboxer) Rob (tenor and lead vocals) Chance (baritone, lead vocals and bass when Tim is lead) Austin (high tenor and lead vocals).

Masterpiece from the boys!!!!!!!

They have SO MANY songs where they showcase EACH one of their voices with the lead. You’ll be amazed

Home Free is Austin Brown tenor 1 ( two tone jacket) Rob Lundquist tenor 2 (Beard) Adam Chance Baritone back row your right) Tim Foust Bass Adam Rupp Beatboxer

All five of them are amazing singers. Tim Foust (Far left) has an 8 octave range he can hit the extreme low notes and some impressive high notes that is absolutely unbelievable. They call him the bass machine. Adam Rupp (Near left) is one of the most talented vocal percussionists to ever exist. Rob Lunquist (Center) is an amazing singer in his own right. He makes a perfect counterpoint for the lead singer. Adam Chance (Near right) is a very talented bass singer with some unique vocal talents. He was the one who made the buzzing sound in the beginning of man of constant sorrow. Austin Brown (Far right) is one of the most talented singers and has an ability to really pull the group together. Each one of these men is fully capable of a solo career and they would still be amazing, as a group they transcend and take acapella music to a new level.

I'd like you to check out Butts Medley and When A Man Loves A Woman.

New sub here, great reaction. Home Free is a truly gifted group of talented men who use oNLY their voices, and all of them are lead singers. Cant wait to see more reactions.

All sing lead, depending on the song, except for Adam, the beatboxer. He's actually got a sweet tenor voice & excels at background harmonies when not beatboxing.👍 Although they all can beatbox to an extent, usually the others who aren't singing lead are creating the "music" in the background. Tim (deepest voice) is adept at sounding exactly like a bass (standing bass or bass guitar)! If he's singing lead, Chance (guy in the back, right side in this) easily takes over the bass line! Adam's drumming is so realistic that professional drummers are dumbfounded. 😳🤯 They're all so dang good at it and so versatile that you forget there's no music track or drum kit! Lol In the picture you stopped on, from left to right: Tim Foust, bass, but has a 5 octave range so he can sing any part! 🤯 He used to have long, dark hair, but since the lockdowns, he now has shorter hair with a gray streak. Adam Rupp, beatboxer & tenor vocals. He usually has short, reddish hair, but will sometimes grow it out pretty long so he can donate it for wigs for children who've lost their hair due to chemo, etc. Almost always clean-shaven. Rob Lundquist, tenor. Always looks the same with his glasses & long, dark beard. Has perfect pitch & is considered the best singer by the rest of the guys. Adam Chance (goes by "Chance" to avoid confusion because there are 2 Adams), baritone - but has a 4 octave range & can also sing bass and tenor! He used to have short, dark hair & tightly cropped beard. Lately he has been changing up styles & sometimes has the sides shaved close with a man-bun. Wears a baseball cap much of the time, though. Keeps a short beard. Austin Brown, high tenor. Skinny Georgia boy! Has reddish hair that he's grown out really long now! Scruffy beard. When he shaves & cuts his hair, he looks about 12 years old. 😂🤣😂 They're all really tall, from around 6'1" to 6'4"!! All 5 are married now & Rob and Adam (Rupp) each have 2 kids. These guys are ultra-talented & absolutely amazing! Not to mention really great people who have remained humble & "real" despite their success. The group was created 23 years ago, believe it or not! They won the Sing-Off TV competition in Season 4 (2013) & took off like a rocket! Oh, and they adore their fans (the HomeFries) & reactors!👍❤🎶🔥 Dang it! No matter how hard I try to be concise, I always end up writing a stupid book! LMBO Sorry! 🤪

Welcome to the Home Free rabbit hole! I see below that someone has given you their names and vocal areas. Just to keep in mind that they are FAR more than just able to sing in their "designated" areas. Tim, the bass, has a 5 octave range, and can sing tenor just fine. Austin has been classically trained, and can sing with, or without, his Georgia accent. Rob has had opera training. Chance can sing bass quite fine, along with a good low tenor voice. And Adam is a real freak with his abilities in beatboxing, as well as having a nice voice when he does sing. They are very capable of singing different parts, and their harmony is way above average! Been a Home Fry for many years now, even when they just got started.

When Home Free does a cover, they pay homage to the original, but always make it their own. Their covers are always upgrades❣️🎼🥰🎶❤ As far as I'm concerned all of the Home Free guys "emote" through their music/videos better than just about anyone else out there--and in this one Rob showcases his gospel/R&B genius in a way that seems to surprise everyone ❣️❣️❣️ #HomeFree

If you want beautiful, Home Free will always deliver. They all sing, and the more you listen the more you'll appreciate their talent. They do covers and originals as well - try Playing With Fire, What's Left Of My Heart, Some Girls Do, or anything from their huge back catalogue.

I love Boyz II Men and have played End of the Road so many times. I never thought I'd ever like a cover of this song. But Home Free did it, while maintaining the respect for the original. How wonderfully sung by all! But for me it is mainly Rob Lundquist who nailed it. What a great voice with so much soul in it. He touches me deep inside. Of course it is the combination of the other leads , fantastic harmony, bone-feeling bassline and the inhuman vocal percussion (Adam Rupp) that makes it complete. The best A-Cappella group for me!Home Free is a group where there is no rivalry and they are all great personalities. All five have great voices with their own specialties. Even the incredibly good beatboxer/vocal percussionist Adam Rupp has a beautiful voice. He started the group with his brother Chris Rupp in 2000. Chris Rupp left the group in 2016 for other projects. He was replaced by Adam Chance (right back, Bass and Baritone. Referred to as Chance). Adam Rupp is the only member left of the original group. Rob Lundquist (Tenor) joined later, then Tim Foust (Bass), then Austin Brown (High Tenor) and finally Adam Chance.

Front row: Tim Foust ( dark hair) is bass but he has a 5+ octave range. Rob Lundquist ( glasses) is tenor. Austin Brown (that hair) high tenor. Back row: Adam Rupp beatboxer ( can't miss him playing invisible drums) also has a tenor/high tenor voice. ( Adam) Chance ( tight beard shorter hair) baritone/bass/tenor

My Left to right: Tim Foust (dark hair)- bass, Adam Rupp (short hair in this one) - beatboxer/vocal percussion, Rob Lundquist (beard & glasses)- tenor, Adam Chance (hoodie)- baritone, Austin Brown (long brown/red hair & beard)- high tenor. The only one who doesn't sing except very rarely is the beatboxer, Adam Rupp on the back left (well your right the way you were pointing). Be aware that Adam and Tim's hair length changes depending on when the video was made. Tim cut his hair and let the gray out during lockdowns. Adam frequently grows his hair out then donates it to charity when it's long enough.

I really appreciate your insightful remarks. Shawn Stockman was a judge when Home Free appeared on the Sing-Off in 2013. He sent a congratulatory message when he heard their cover of this song.

Every song they do is an upgrade. They are the best out there

I think these guys looked up to Boyz II Men. They were at the right age. Tim-Adam-Rob-Chance-Austin

Lord knows I'm a child of the 80's... Home Free does amazing justice to Boyz II Men... I love it...

Oh, when they competed on the Sing Off Shawn Stockman from Boys to Men was a judge. He absolutely loved Austin's voice.

I prefer Home Free's version. As a teen I used to love the Boys2Men original, but I have evolved and I love how Home Free allows beloved songs to evolve too. Great reaction! Thanks!

Welcome to the Home Free rabbit hole! These guys are amazing! Love your reaction!

Please react to " Brothers In Arms " , " Unchained Melody " , Everybody Walkin This Land " 💙

Boyz II Men was originally an acapella group. Shawn Stockman of BIiM was a judge on The Sing-Off an acapella competition show. Home Free was on the show's fourth season and won. Shawn was a big fan of them especially of Austin Brown, the high tenor. Austin sang the lead on Man of Constant Sorrow. Shawn said Austin wasn't just a another white boy singer and that Austin's voice was smooth as butter. Rob Lundquist with the beard and glasses is singing lead here. As Shawn said it "the boys can blow," meaning they can really sing and that they are really talented.

Tim Foust, bass. Rob Lundquist, tenor. Auston Brown, tenor. Adam Rupp, beat boxer. Adam Chance, baritone....called Chance. Everybody sings. Check out "How Great Thou Art".

Want bass? Folsom Prison Blues. Since it's so close to Veterans Day, save bass-heavy Brothers In Arms for then; it's a masterpiece. Who did it better? Depends on your personal preference. 😊

FYI all 5 have had some kind of musical training after high school. ROB as well as Austin have had SOME classical training and you should find their duet of an Opera called Nessa Dorma

They all take the lead in different songs. Check out the Butts remix and BOOM they gotchu. Great rxn. Keep the HF coming and the Home Fries will flood your channel! Subscribed.

Using your numbering: 1. Tim Foust - basso profundo 2. Adam Rupp - beatboxer/vocal percussion 3. Rob Lundquist - Tenor and lead in this song with the glasses and beard 4. Adam Chance - Baritone/bass 5. Austin Brown - High Tenor Thanks for reacting again! They all get leads in different songs, so there's no lead singer.

Fantastic reaction. This one got you a new sub. Home Free is all about Beauty. Real music. Comedy and tragedy. All of it. You should react soon to the Drum Solo by Adam Rupp (2015 in red plaid shirt) to appreciate his role going forward. Another beautiful song featuring solos by 3 of the guys is "In the Blood." And Austin Brown (who did the high solos in End of the Road) kills "When a Man Loves a Woman." For their hilarious side, see the "Butts Medley," a remix of all styles, including hiphop.

Great reaction. I love both versions, but Home Free did an amazing job, and Rob Lundquist sang his heart and soul out on this.

PERFECTION on everything they perform ♥️🎶

At minute 1:19 when you asked for their names: L-R (or 1-5): Tim Foust who is the bass and can sing in 5 octaves, Adam Rupp who is the beat boxer, Rob Lundquist who is a tenor, Chance (aka Adam Chance) who is a Baritone and Austin Brown who is a tenor. All but Adam take leads in different songs, though there are a handful of songs he sings in instead of percussion noises and other sounds. They really are phenomenal!!

Home Free all the way

I love both so I don't compare I just enjoy both a lot !!!! I would suggest Everybody Walkin' this Land....they kill it again and it was shot during the covid quarantine, so it will always be so very special to me

It's so hard to do what classic groups have done. Home Free has a rare talent and respect to pull it off. Glad you love Home Free as much as I do.

Home Free is so good. When they were on the NBC show the Sing Off (they won in 2013) Shawn Stockman of Boyz II Men was a judge and he loved them. I think they did justice to the song. Ok left to right Tim (bass), Adam (in back, beatboxer), Rob (glasses and lead here), Chance (back row, baritone) and Austin (redhead). Hope that helps. 😍

Great reaction. Thanks for sharing this.

Everybody Walkin This Land- Home Free

They all sing . They decide who sounds better singing what part. Sometimes they take turns singing a verse but sometimes take the lead. Well, exceot Adam Rupp, the beatboxer. We can often hear his sweet tenor/high tenor in the harmonies but he doesn't like to sing alone. You can see him sing a sentence or two by himself in " How Great Thou Art ". Thanks for the Home Free reactions

There is no lead singer in this group. They audition the song and as a group decide whose voice best suits the song. Check out Working for a Living. A fun video and vocally they all get a piece of the pie, although Adam Chance takes the lead. And speaking of pie, you have to check out American Pie with Don McLean. He wrote and recorded the song, and with HF, they put out a 50th anniversary edition. The collaboration was Don’s idea. Subbing today for more HF.

My personal favorite in Home Free is Rob. He's the Baritone, and the Baritone has always traditionally been the singer that "can do it all", so to speak. They can go high or they can go low, and everything in-between. Adam Chance is also really great at this. And he's kind of the designated backups to either Baritone or Bass. Tim can go pretty high compared to most Bass singers, and there is a few songs that really displays his ability to go high and low, but ultimately he's a natural Bass. I love Austin's voice. But he's a natural Tenor and nothing else. He can do Baritone, but it's not where he shines best.

each of them can sing lead.... they are amazing

Rob Lunquist=Tenor Tim Foust=Bass Adam Chance=Baritone Austin Brown=High Tenor Adam Rupp=Beatboxer Love their version of this song! Great reaction 🎉 I love Home Free😊

Every single one of these men can take the lead,beatbox, you name it they can do it all every single individual...these men are so talented it's sickening.. I love my boys....🏡🆓🏡🍟..Welcome to the Home Fry family.. one of the deepest rabbit holes in acapella history you're ever going to go down.. you are absolutely adorable you have a subscriber right here.

All four take lead, they decide by vote, what songs they will perform. Then they try everyone out at lead to see what works best. The Beatboxer Adam Rupp sings backup sometimes if they feel the song shouldn't have any percussion. Such as How Great Thou Art and Holy Night.

X every guy on this group has a beautiful voice

These guys also write songs -- all around super talented!

Larry Bird and Home Free? Wow! Subscribed!

Each one of these guys us equally talented and they will never cease to amaze you. I urge you to do a deep dive into Hone Free.

Yep, They can sing anything!

I like both but this version is so beautiful I have to say Home Free! The bass is my favorite! They all have an amazing God given talent! Love, love, love this group!

Since you like the bass, you might like Brothers in Arms. Tim Foust, who sang bass in this song, is one of the leads, and Adam Chance, who sings bass and baritone, is the other. (Both of them can sing outside those ranges too.)

Helplessly Hoping will showcase their vocals

Kathy here - loved your reaction to their vocals. Your questions were answered below regarding names, etc. And some great songs have been recommended, but I am going to recommend one - It is a Hyme but so beautifully done, and done in the Swiss Alps = How Great Thou Art. Beautiful song and version. And yes, they sing with true passion, and their vocal choices of runs and the way they use the diction of the words, is amazing. (I sang with a band for 15 years in Orlando, Florida - lead female - back in the 80's and 90's and this was one of the songs our band would do, with the male lead singing most of it) I love both versions, but a leaning a little more to Home Free. Thanks for such a great reaction.

They made this song their own. They are so very incredibly. Love your reaction!

Im old man....i had the boyz 2 men cd This song gives me chills. I love it

soooooooooo goooooooood!!!!!!!!!

Homefree members are from far left is tim foust bass, Adam rupp beatboxed he makes all the musical instruments sounds, rob le quest, Adam chance also bass, and Austin Brown high tenor.

❤ I love it when Rob goes gospel on a song

You are amazing I love watching ppl react to songs but you can tell it hits your heart! Keep up the good work and music that you do! And you have passion! And I absolutely love Home Free!

1:45 on the left is Tim Foust, Texas, and sings bass mostly, next in the back is Adam Rupp, Minn and beatboxer extraordinaire, Center is Rob Lindquist, Minn I do believe , Tenor and often shares leads with another, in the back on the right is Adam Chance, aka Chance, Calif, Some bass some baritone some tenor, far right is lead tenor Austin Brown, home grown Georgia boy, and a magnificent voice.

Oh, and Rob is the principle singer on this. Beard guy.

You are amazing!!! And I like this version better than the original (props to B2M, always!!)

Saw these guys in person in Mt Vernon Kentucky a few months ago and they were AMAZING. Seriously

Welcome to the Home Free world! Just hit subscribe and can’t wait to watch you discover more and more of them!!

❤❤

Shawn Stedman of BTM …loved these guys on The Sing Off…. There is No lead in this group…the lead is chosen as to whose voice fits the song. There’s No diva in this bunch…love this about them 🙃💗❣️‼️ The 1st singer…Rob Lundquist……..The 2nd singer…Austin Brown. The Beat Boxer is …Adam Rupp……The Bass singer…Tim Foust..(has a 5 Octave Range!!!!). The Baritone is …(Adam) Chance …goes by, as there was already an Adam. These guys have Over 300 videos here on RU-vid!!!!…..All genres !!!!

Your hair is ridiculous. I love it!

Home Free's covers I believe are more of an upgrade to the original versions.

I love Home Free version. PLEASE REACT TO VOICEPLAY!!!!! Creep would be a great one to start, lots of emotion.

Home Free - check out Mayday and Ring of Fire for sure. Oh, and Brothers in Arms, the Sea Shanty Medley, and Helplessly Hoping (my favorite Home Free song). Moving to other songs, you need The Sound of Silence by Disturbed and Dream On by Voiceplay..

Mayday should be done when you know the individuals in the group well.

These guys have the best harmonies and yes country but do all styles enjoyed

They all can sing 😊

They all can sing

rob linquist be the fella in the brown jacket that sung 1st then austin brown be the next fella in the brown and jean jacket the fella in the hoodie be adam chance(he goes by chance) the bass singer be tim foust and the beatboxer be adam rupp home free won the accappella singin competition called the sing off and 1 of the judges was shawn stockman from boys ll men

You are now officially a Home Fry.

You asked, so I’ll compare the original version to this one. First, all props to B2M and their original. Without them we wouldn’t have the HF version. However, as usual, Home Free has upgraded the original with their version. I went back and listened to the original before I wrote this so I could be fair. There are places where the accompaniment nearly overwhelms the voice(s) in the original and the lyrics are not as clearly enunciated either in the B2M version. So the biggest reason I prefer the HF version is that the voices & especially the vocal harmonies shine through with a purity that exceeds B2M. On a minor note, the extra maturity of the HF members adds some gravitas to the lyrics that’s missing in the youth of B2M, at least for me.

❤🤠 HF. Great 👍 reaction

A couple more of their songs and you’ll be ready to hear Mayday, originally by Cam. Just when you think you’ve got them all figured out they will blow your mind again with that one. Since I’m here I may as well tell you that I think you’re absolutely adorable, keep up the Home Free tunes!! Love this!!

Their newest song was written by Chance for a new game that's coming out - Skull and Bones. You need to watch the official video with lyrics first then you can watch it live. I may not fall into your usual demographic but I love hearing your reactions. You are a wonderful young man. (The name of the song is Skull and Bones)

These guys can sing❤🎉

Horses is another awesome song,they have so many a have never seen one song that it's not good, thanks for your great reaction, hugs from a Fries in Norway 🫂🫂👏🏽👏🏽💞💞

Rob is great!

Rob takes everybody to church at the end

There are 2 new ones you need to check out!!"Cruise", and "I want crazy"!!!
