HOME FREE - BROTHERS IN ARMS | BLOWN AWAY BY THIS ONE!!! | {REACTION} 

The song is a masterpiece of Home Free. The fantastic harmonies, on point. And then Tim's and Chance's voices, phenomenal. But Tim's super low notes make for an absolutely perfect goosebump feeling!

It is a wounded and dying soldier on the battlefield, saying good bye to his comrades and expressing the stupidity and futility of war beyond his own simple death. As a Vietnam veteran who lost friends I appreciate every word of the lyrics.

Can't do Mayday until you learn their names

This is a masterpiece by Home Free. It's a very serious subject too. As Veteran's dAY APPROACHES WE TURN OUR ATTENTION TO those who have served AND those who are serving now

As a veteran, this song hit me in places I had no idea that I could feel. I was on my knees crying reminiscing of the friends I have lost to the mental scars of military service. Even the privilege of presenting flags to next of kin at military funerals of those who came before. It really just hits you in a gut and feels.

Yeah, no Avi. You are thinking of Avi Kaplan, who sang with them on Ring of Fire. He used to be in Pentatonix, but left that group. The Home Free gang consists of beatboxer Adam Rupp, who also founded the group. High tenor is Austin Brown. Lead tenor is Rob Lundquist, and the guy you like is Adam Chance Ray.....known as Chance. He is baritone, but can sing tenor and bass. Has a 4-octave range. Our bassman is the incomparable Tim Foust....with a 5-octave range.

I've heard this several times now, and it's just haunting. They sound like organ music in the background.

Please DON'T do Mayday yet. You've GOT TO know their names & usually roles very well before you'll totally get Mayday. Do a couple more & get ti know them individually a bit better & Mayday will get you deeper & just better. Try "Sold". "Honey I'm good". "Can't stop the feeling". "All about that bass". "Blue ain't your color". "Working for a living". "Thank God I'm a country boy". "9 to 5" (official video and LIVE- 9 to 5) or there's plenty others that are fabulous. Maybe 2 or 3 more, THEN you'll get & appreciate Mayday on a better level. 🥰🥰

This is a good cover version. The original song was written by Mark Knopfler from the UK band Dire Straits. It was released by them in 1984, but written in 1982. It's about the loss of lives on both sides during the Falklands conflict between Argentina & UK. A very poignant song. Dire Straits are probably one of the best live performing bands. Definitely worth a reaction.

Left to right in the back: Adam, Rob, & Austin. In front: Chance on the left, Tim on the right. No Avi. This gives me chills every time. Nice reaction 👌

Really waiting for MayDay "But" Avi was a guest,not a member of Home Free! Probably will be a better reaction when you know their names and are familiar with their voices!

My nightly prayer and love of Home Free’s rendition of Brother’s in Arms.

One of The Best Patriotic Songs I've heard in a While!!! Thanks Home Free!!!!!

I have always loved this song by Dire Straits but think Home Free did an excellent version of this song. Tim's natural bass was awesome, also Chance's solos & so were all the guys doing 5 part harmonies.

Great reaction! But, nope, not ready for Mayday. You're getting there, but aren't there quite yet. You should know what each person normally does without having to guess in order to fully grasp what is going on from the very beginning of the song. Also, in this song (Brothers In Arms) it's the full gang. No beatboxing, but Adam was there humming and vocalizing along. Each song is different, and tailored to the effect they want the song to bring out and who would be the best to do so. So it might be like this one with one or two leading or all leading at points.

Home Free sang with Lee Greenwood and the military in the song "God Bless The USA". The bass is from the next town over here in Southeast Texas.

You first did Man of Constant Sorrow. And yes, they are unbelievable. A lot of reactors have at least shed a few tears. This is supposed to pull at your heart. And yes, haircuts and a little weight loss after COVID.

Just when you think they couldn't get any better....

Too much orange juice in my heart... You are great.

I really didn't expect humming to give me chills, but yeah, Home Free. Front to back mellow orange juice rain down on me. Grabs you by the feels and never lets go.

Before you can do Mayday, you'll need to know everyone's name's and what parts they sing. If it takes writing them down, do it. Let's just say the surprises you get with Mayday, will make you appreciate knowing who each guy is and what parts they sing. It'll make you get up and walk away more then once with a lot of extra orange juice. More like raining orange juice instead of sprinkling orange juice.

Everybody Walking This Land Is a MUST listen for Home Free. It's AMAZING and poignant!

If you haven't already reacted to Everybody Walking This Land, please do! It's a wonderful song with a powerful message and make sure you listen to Tim's message at the end and know that he speaks for many of us!! Great reaction, will be watching for the next one!

Every time I hear this I weep. But I continue listening. So many memories. Agent Orange Widow since July 21, 2020.

I find it incredible how Tim still has his vibrato at his deepest point.

Baby Yodas with orange juice…yes, sir!!! This is so good. Loved it!!! Loved Tim’s low notes, the second singer is Chance. He’s the baritone/bass. Loved the black and white film. Tim and Chance looked ghost like in the windows. Loved it. It’s now one of my favorites! To hear more of Chance listen to I Can’t Outrun You, Some Girls Do, Yours. HF is so damn good!

Right in the heart. Respect for those who served and suffered.

This song is 🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥, no matter time do i listen to this song.. I get chills everytime..

You would not have been the first one who cried while reacting to this song. It's absolutely haunting -- and absolutely beautiful at the same time.

What a powerful song and message captured and delivered perfectly. This one stays with you. And yeah, you can do Mayday now.

You should react to Working for a living with Chance doing the lead and some amazing beatboxing from Adam. But you must learn their names

The chorusing between the 2nd and 3rd verses makes me think of people wailing - eerie, beautiful and sad. Their rendition of this song is almost an elegy. I've seen military veterans reduced to tears by it.

Tim and Chance are incredible in this. Goosebumps

Thank you AB. 😊 packed with orange 🍊 juice. This moves me so much. Bless you my friend 👍 👍💕👍

YES!!! You've Got to Listen to May Day!!! You're gonna Love it!!!

Brother these boys have the Wright name Home Free because they can bring it home there harmonizing is on point for sure.

Haunting, Mesmerizing, Magical and a Beautiful Masterpice.

Home Free is just the best! Tim Foust, their deep bass: awesome.

Those last two notes are a giant "Amen" from me...

That's Chance and he's their baritone but also can sing bass, he has very smooth vocals.

Tim Foust is deep bass, 5 octave range. Adam Chance is baritone, 4 1/2 octave range. Rob is 2nd tenor, Austin is the 1st tenor, and Adam Rupp is the beatbox expert. All three of them have 3 1/2 octave ranges.

Sure someone mentioned it but Avi Kaplan-formerly of Pentatonix is not a member of HomeFree. The menbers are Tim, Chance, Adam, Rob and Austin from lowest to highest register. Adam Rupp is also the GENIUS beatboxer.

these men are amazing, such beautiful sounds

“ Baby yodas serving everybody orange juice” 😆 😆 😆 😆

This song has amazing harmonies. Thanks for your reaction

The back ground harmonies are what I think Heaven would sound like,

Very serious message and love Tim and Chance.

I love the hmmmms etc in this song! I could listen to a whole song with these beautiful harmonies! Home Free is absolutely so wonderful, I can’t get enough of them. I liked your reaction, but get another couple songs under your belt before you do Mayday!

They are the very best !!!!!

Peace, Love! God Bless our Service Members!

I just found you tonight and am binge watching your Home Free reactions. What a delightful and fun guy! A bit crazy too, but I love it. You are one of the few reactors who can actually sing!! You have made me laugh so hard! Thank you for keeping a G language rating!! I have been a Home Fry for about 5 years and have been to 4 concerts. The guys are just as nice in person! Check out Diamond Dreams and Fishing in the Dark/Down in the Boondocks mashup. You can never get enough Home Free. Keep the reactions coming!!

Now that you have heard this, you are so ready for Mayday! The guy who you think doesn't sing a lot is Adam Chance, usually referred to as Chance. He is best heard in the videos for "Some Girls Do", "Born In The USA", "Everybody Walking This Land" and their "Sea Shanty Medley". All of those songs are phenomenal. But really when it comes to Home Free you really can't miss. They are all incredible!

AB, I'm excited for you to see this! I'll be at the premier.

YES!!!!! PLEASE do Mayday!!!! I am soooo excited to see your reaction to Mayday!!!! 🤣🤣🤣

The beatboxer is Adam Rupp. Rob Lundquist, with the magnificent beard, is the low tenor. The cute ginger is Austin Brown, high tenor.

As soon as you learn who the bass is and what he looks like; then, and only then, will you be ready for Mayday!

Until you know every person in this group. Know what each person can sing, you aren't ready for Mayday

You can do Mayday if you know that Tim is the bass, Chance is the baritone/bass , Rob is Tenor and Austin is high Tenor. Adam is the beatboxer:) ^i^

AWESOME Reaction Video! Loved it! Hopefully I can get my Mom & Aunt to go see them in concert! Aunt is just not doing great with her Health, but I showed my aunt this reaction video and she said GREAT Job. Slowly but surely my best friend she will come around and like Home Free.

The bass is Tim Foust. Avi is from Pentatonix. This is one of their songs off of their album Land Of The Free that came out earlier this year. The whole album is awesome. Try Travelin soldier and Mt country tis of thee

Loving your reactions, just listening to their beauty. Probably my favorite of their many songs on a personal level but the harmonies. Maybe check out Tim and peter hollens misty mountains, for the bass and also the 100 plus layering they did with just 2 voices. Amazing !! AB nation!!

Powerful. Do you hear what I hear from them will blow your mind.

I'd love to hear what they might do with a Concerto (Symphony style). Completely capable in my opinion

Awesome reaction! Waiting for Mayday until you know each member and what part they sing... high (tenors- Austin and Rob) and low (bass-Tim and baritone-Chance)... this way you'll be prepared to hear it. 😊

Everybody Walkin' This Land. PLEASE. You WILL love the mega-orange juice. FIRE.

If you love Rob..... he's gonna blow you away on Mayday

Orange juice is always best when you add a bit of vodka.

As always your reaction is priceless! That Avi Collin AB.

They are singing from the grave. When they stand in front of the windows you can see right through them. This is masterful.

Thank you for these videos….. you put me on them now I’m bout to be a home fry 😂😂😂 THEY FREAKIN ROCK

We're fools to make war on our Brothers In Arms. The truth is for generations "they" have tried to destroy our LOVE of each other with propaganda daily and movies meant to assault our minds and hearts & spirits. They are losing- LOVE ONE ANOTHER! Lift one another up. I love you AB! Stay strong, curious and just as BRILLIANT as you ARE!

Beatboxer is Adam Rupp. Bass is Tim Foust. Baritone is Adam Chance .. called Chance. 2nd Tenor is Rob Lundquist and 1st Tenor is Austin Brown. Please react to Mayday?

I'm late to the party, but I really hope you see this, because you've GOT to do a react to the original, by Dire Straits. This is an amazing cover... the original is mostly just Mark Knopfler's unmistakable guitar & voice. But they're like total musical opposites of each other, but that's like the only way to cover that song without seeming like a cheap copy? Mark's voice is... graceful, but plain. Soft, but gravelly. He sings & you feel the exhaustion of the narrator... simple, unvarnished truth. All the intricacy & flourish is in the fingerstyle acoustic guitar. There aren't many rock artists that can fingerstyle at all, let alone for the entire song and they're also the only singer, and the combination of the two is like nothing else in rock.

This song is from their album Land of the Free. You can order it from Amazon along with a few others. No I don’t think you’re quite ready for Mayday just yet but you’re getting there. I’ll be looking forward to it as well. When you get ready to do Home Free’s Christmas music please please do Do You Hear What I Hear along with Full of Cheer which was written by Tim Foust and Cold Hard Cash.

It will be interesting to see your reaction to this one, but I do wonder if you've heard the original Dire Straits version. If not, as a music lover AB - you really should give it a listen I enjoy the A Capella style of music, I count myself as a "Home Free" fan & do think the group did a very respectful & admirable job on it... However.... "Brother's in Arms" has been my all time fav Dire Straits song since it first came out in '85 and it never fails to move me to the verge of tears. The lead-in of the light guitar notes mixed with the storm... the thought provoking lyrics Knopfler's soulful & absolutely ICONIC guitar... As said above, HF made a great effort & I'm not trying to downplay it at all, but due to my extreme reverence for the original, the bar is stratospherically high... so this one falls a bit short for me. (If ya haven't heard the original, treat yourself: ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-jhdFe3evXpk.html )

THANK You for your service

This song always gives me a haunting “The Hobbit” vibe. Can never listen without getting goosebumps and depending on how into it, I get tears as well. Thanks for the reaction!

Amazing can’t wait to watch

Home Free made you "feel" this song.

You have to listen till the end... Adam's flight!

To me, the silhouette against the light coming in from the window is very reminiscent of the symbol on the POW-MIA remembrance flag honoring our captured and missing military personnel. It’s haunting.

Wow...love that voice..

The base of course started with Tim. Then Chance came in with the next solo. In the back from left to right is Adam, the beatboxer, then Rob and Austin on the far right. These guys are amazing, always on point.

Wow!! they are so good.

Gonna have to add them to my play list

Oh I can't wait to see you react to this.

Go for it!

Best ever

My faves of theirs I don't think you've reacted to in no particular order: champange living on a beer budget, love me like that, travelin soldier, my church, hillbilly bone, castle on the hill, and mayday. You already did: in the blood, how great thou art, and folsom prison.

Beautiful

Now do Mayday... it will 🤯🤯🤯

Please do HF’s “everybody’s walkin this land”. Not only amazing but perfect message for this day and age. New sub loving your content! ❤️❤️❤️

Not ready for Mayday. Avi was Pentatonix. He went solo and has some great stuff of his own.

“Helplessly Hoping,” Home Free’s cover of the CROSBY STILLS & NASH tune. Now that you have headphones…. Wear a life preserver or you’ll drown in the OJ pouring down.

Their names are Bass Tim Faust beat over Adam Rupp Baritone Adam Chance tenor Rob Lundquist high tenor Austin Brown

You mentioned that you love Chance's voice but hadn't heard him take lead often. I didn't see a reaction to "Cover Me Up" on your playlist. I know it's been a while since you did this reaction, but if you are still jonesing to hear him you really need to listen to that one. Another good one that I'm not sure I saw on your reactions was "Brother". I agree that his voice is super fantastic!

Love watching your reactions you have reached a small country Wales who are part of Great Britain thank you

Listen MrCreator… I just LOVE ur channel!! I came across u after following Tom McDonald. I just want to tell u, u are my favorite reactor. I work at a hospital and literally I play u on my breaks and when it gets crazy. Keep doing u. Have u done any Falling In Reverse? May I suggest The Drug in Me is You reimagined and the trilogy and newest Zombified. Anyway please talk to me….lightly🤗

1st, its pronounced AweVee (Avi) he is a Bass/Baratone as well so takes over when Tim is hitting a different range for the song. As far as being ready for May Day.... do Go Rest High (written and song by Vince Gill for his brother that passed, best version is him, Allison Kruass & the crazy talented Ricky Skaggs!) Then you do May Day.... Bro you gonna need tissues for both! How Great Thou Art is Church these 2 are pain of the soul...

A I is the bass singer in Pentatonix. He sang with Home free on loan in Elvira
