You're missing out on so much of the harmonies when you don't have headphones. Do yourself a favor: get headphones and listen again! And give a listen to Home Free's cover of "When a Man Loves a Woman." You won't be disappointed.
I will second this guys unless you are using a state of the art surround sound system, then you MUST use headphones when you listen to these guys or you really miss out on the amazing nuances of their arrangements.
The bass, Tim Foust, has a 5 octave range. This was nowhere near his lowest note. Dive down the rabbit hole, you want to see more of the beatboxer, Adam Rupp, check out their Butts Remix.
So glad you said all of that because I as just getting ready to go rant and now I can just say “Ditto”. Also try to react to Home Free’s - When A Man Loves A Woman.
The beatboxer....Adam Rupp...prefers not to be too front and center. He does have a number of live solo's but generally he shys away from the limelight. He is an incredible talent who has twice been the beatboxer world champion. Incidentally he has a good voice too but doesn't feel comfortable showing it. Thank you for the reaction....please keep Home Free on the menu....
With Home Free, and Tim Foust the BASS dude, your just scratching the surface with him. Man of Constant Sorrow, is a great one, and if you want to see Tim, check out Misty Mountains. Great Reaction to this one.
There are no egos in this group. They are best friends. They all take leads depending on the song. Their arrangements are perfect. Their harmony is clean and pure. They are five beautiful human beings making heavenly music.
I enjoyed your reaction. Now you have combine both groups with Home Free - “ Ring of Fire” (featuring Avi Kaplan of Pentatonix)...oh, and you’ll get some bass!
The beatboxer is actually one of the founders of the group. He doesn't get much screen time in a lot of their stuff and from what I hear that is actually his preference. He never sings lead, only beatboxing and background and I've heard it takes a lot of convincing to get him to sing because he's oddly shy about regular singing (or so I heard). Trust me, if he wanted the spotlight he'd get it. The group basically takes turns being the lead singer. On their concerts the beatboxer does a 'drum solo' which...well its even better than you would assume.
Hello from a danish fry , you are right about almost everything . But not about Adams screen time check out -- The Butts Remix , or Some girls do ,or Mayday
@@mettesrensen6116 The word is don't watch Mayday until you seen several other HF videos and know who's who and their voice tones and the like. You'll enjoy it much more.
Castellucci may actually be better as a bass vocalist, but Home Free is better--most specifically, has better arranging and orchestration talent--than VoicePlay. I think Pentatonix should have done whatever was necessary to steal Castellucci from VoicePlay when Avi Kaplan left. I'm sure Matt is a nice guy, but Avi was far more than his share of the original Pentatonix sound, and Matt just hasn't ever quite been able to fill his shoes.
Home Free just premiered their cover of 'I Swear' *yesterday.* Rather good timing considering you love Boyz II Men. The man with the awesome beard is Rob and, he actually doesn't take lead very often but he does in both of these songs. He also sings lead in their cover of 'Blue Aint Your Color' and their original song 'Why Not'. I recommend all of the above.
Not bad for some "country boys". Tim is pretty amazing...his low notes are worthy of blowing out speakers. More Home Free to react to....Man of Constant Sorrow, Down to the Honkytonk, When a man loves a woman, Castle on the Hill, Some Girls Do (you'll see & hear a lot of the beatboxer on this one) originals....Dive Bar Saints, When you walk by, & Why Not ? (as a young couple I think you'll enjoy this one.
@@DyvmSlorm Yeah...that one wasn't because of his bass voice; he was "cheating." It's a special technique that some basses develop that allows them to go clear down past the sonic range to where their sound is perceived as just a series of clicks instead of a tone. Geoff Castellucci does the same thing. The technique is based on something that just about anybody can do, plus an insane amount of practice and development. (I can _do_ it, but I certainly can't _sing_ with it; the most I can do is talk with it.) Which is not to say that Foust doesn't have a freak-of-nature bass voice: he does. Or that he doesn't have a virtuoso's control of it: he does. But popping the speaker wasn't a thing he did with his natural singing voice: it was a trick.
They are considered a country acapella group, but they do so much more, They have some soul. The bass guy can sing incredibly low. Each of them can sing a good lead, even the beatboxer can sing and harmonize with them when he's not beatboxing. They are experts of harmony. PTX won the 3rd season of the acapella singing show "The Sing-Off" (it only ran 5 seasons) and Home Free won the 4th season of the show.
They cross musical genres like a hot knife through butter. Some various examples are "In the Blood", "Mayday", "Do You Hear What I Hear", or "When a Man Loves a Woman". You can't lose on any of their videos. Always leaves me with a smile.
Adam Rupp, the beatboxer, is the last original member of the group and he prefers being more in the background. These guys are not afraid to let the other guys shine, which is just one of the reasons why I love them. It's time for you two to dig deeper into Home Free. They clearly blow you away, you have no excuses. Just do it!
Adam is brother to Chris Rupp (Founder) and Chris left for Production work and was replaced by Adam Chance = Bass, Baritone & low Tenor - really great choice !
Home Free won the Sing Off the year after Pentatonix. They did "Ring of Fire" with Avi when he was still in Pentatonix. My favorite country boys all together.
Here for the Home Free!! You will find that Tim's bass is incredible, and they tend to feature different group members in different videos. They take whoever fits best as the lead for specific songs. So many Home Free songs to chose from and they are ALL incredible. More Home Free!!
Please check out more Homefree and Adam Rupp is the best beat boxer around!! He gets plenty love!! Please try Homefrees Man of Constant Sorrow, Butts Remix, and Ring of Fire!! Get them out of the way there's alot more!! Adam Rupp also has some drum solos on here!!
Love Home Free please check out more They just released I Swear video also American Pie with Don Mclean . In concert the beat boxer gets a solo, lots of them on youtube to check out
You NEED to do so many more Home Free Videos! I'm a Fan of Pentatonix but IMO Home Free kills it everytime and in many Genre's too! Home Free had a change of Singers in the Group just as Pentatonix had when Avi Kaplan left to go Solo. In Home Free's Case Chris Rupp one of the Founding Members Left in 2015-2016 to go Solo and he's doing well too, just as Avi is doing. So to recognize Chris Rupp in the Home Free Videos, he's the one that almost always wears a Cowboy Hat or has a Shaved head. He was replaced by Adam Chance known as Chance because of the 2 Adams in the Group! Adam Rupp, the other Founding Member and brother of Chris is the Beatboxer! He's the BEST Beatboxer IMO! Anyways you mentioned that they didn't show him off that much but you missed his sillouette at the beginning and throughout the Video! I strongly suggest that you React to "Man Of Constant Sorrow", you see soooooooooo much more Adam Rupp The Beatboxer! After that try "Ring Of Fire" Featuring Avi Kaplan formerly of Pentatonix! And with this one you'll HEAR Adam Rupp alot in this Video! It's also a Bass Showdown!😜👍😎
By the way to give you a back story , Joshua and Julia never had a formal break up so the song kinda' became an instrument for them with the help also of Moira to say things what they needed to say to each other and to formally say goodbye and to move on. Its so beautiful , painful but at the same time liberating. so prepare a tissue because your tears will drop in the end.
Home Free is really an excellent a cappella group. Yes they do a lot of country music, but they also will surprise you with all different kinds of music and do it all well. One of my favorite songs....is country and fun... Hillbilly Bone...another... What We Ain't Got...and one more is... In The Blood. If you would like try out some of these or the ones below. Thank you for a great reaction. (liked and subscribed)
The only song I know that Adam the beatboxer takes Center Front is Do You Hear What I Hear I know it is a Christmas song but it is well worth it and yes you need headphones for that one
You're just getting started with Home Free. I believe Adam Rupp is the Best Beat Boxer out there and they do give him more face time in other videos. I also believe Tim Foust, the bass, has the best low register and one of the widest tonal ranges out there. Keep in mind that Home Free is a bit more Country, than PTX, who is more POP. But these guys do a fantastic job on covering songs regardless of the genre. You have a lot of catching up to do as far as Home Free and PTX. Home Free just released a few awesome songs in the past week, "American Pie" great song and they collaborated with and included Don McLean, the original writer and artist of the song. They also release a cover of Percy Sledge's "When A Man Loves a Woman", Primarily a solo by Austin, he does a fantastic job. You are a nice couple, Cynthia, absolutely beautiful. Thank you both for sharing your reaction with us. Keep those Home Free and PTX reactions coming. There are few other A Capella groups out there, Vocal Rush, VoicePlay, Small Town Titans. If you want something light and fun, check out PTX and VoicePlay, doing "You're a Mean One Mr Grinch". If you want some really amazing bass from some light skinned dudes, you have to check out Home Free cover of "Ring of Fire" (Johnny Cash). Avi Kaplan who use to be the bass for PTX, joins Home Free. He and Tim will blow your socks off, if you like the bass sound.
IMO, nothing will ever replace the original magic from hearing Boyz 11 Men sing this masterpiece, & I am so happy that Home Free, was able to keep the original integrity of the song, yet still inject a little of their own magic, allowing us, to fall in love with it, all over again 💕 *I don't believe any other group, other than Home Free, could have pulled this off, & the fact that they are a Capella, definitely puts them on a completely different level of skill & talent* 💕
I loved the Boyz to Men original = they are great singers. The fact is the vocal strengths, individual talent, range and blend in this ensemble called Home Free is better and the production and video creativity adds yet more quality to their work. Home Free is phenomenal !
All of the guys are really talented. Adam, the beatboxer, does get more face time in other videos. He just usually prefers the background but comes out of his shell more often now.
Start at the beginning with Home Free!!!!!!!!!! Watch their performances on the TV show, "Sing Off"!! It's where they got their big break! HF has been around for 20+ yrs!
What Gene below says, "When a Man love a Woman" ...this was a very good rendition of this song. You are right, it is a hard song to sing and they did it justice.
Born & raised in Philly (K&A - Kensington & Allegheny Aves.) back in the Hall & Oates days. Thank you for not interrupting or talking over the song . I subscribed Portland Oregon USA 🇺🇸
If you want to double the bass, watch 'Ring of Fire' w/ guest Avi from Pentatonix. 'Man of Constant Sorrow' really showcases the beat boxer. His 'harmonica' is unbelievable.
You experienced excellence with PTX and Home Free. Your next A Capella venture should be with Voctave - totally different, an 11 person group that takes harmony to an entirely different dimension. They just did a cover of "You Will be Found" featuring their virtual choir - 1000 of their Patrons who stepped up to the plate to participate. Trust me - you won't regret it.
Just an FYI on the Beatboxer of Home Free, Adam "The Freak of Nature" Rupp ... he was twice voted best All-Around Beatboxer by his peers at the World Beatboxing Competition.
Boyz II Men's Shawn Stockman was a judge on the season of NBC's "The Sing Off" won by Home Free. He was definitely impressed by the group. BTW, Home Free and Pentatonix are good friends. Avi Kaplan even collaborated with Home Free on "Ring of Fire".
I agree about the lack of Adam Rupp camera time. Usually he gets much more camera time. Everyone is going to say go to Ring of Fire. It is hreat, don't get me wrong... but they have better! I'd check out Folsom Prison Blues or if you know "The Big Lebowski, check out their cover if "This is How We Roll." They are a country vocal bamd, but they incorporate many genres into their sound. Subbing for more Home Free and other great reactions!
I'm not sure what Home Free's video count is up to, well over 80 songs. All of them are worth a listen, many of them are great, like this one. Their best quarantine video, in my opinion and risking lots of flames, is their cover of "Folsom Prison Blues". It features the lower voices and Adam Rupp, the beatboxer and co-founder of the group, gets plenty of screen time. I love that they take on songs that hit the top of the charts and make them fresh. Plus they have some really fine original music.
If you want to hear more "bass white dudes" you should most definitely check more Home Free vids, as well as Geoff Castellucci from Voice Play and Tomi P's vids, I'm sure you'll love them as much as most of us do!!
You can catch up on camera time for the beat boxer by looking up "Adam Rupp--Drum Solo". A remarkable performance from a guy who clearly swallowed all kinds of percussion instruments, and probably a bunch of silverware and the kitchen sink
As mentioned below, Voiceplay will also knock your a cappella socks off. Carry on Wayward Son or Superstition are good first tastes of that group. You'll fall down rabbit holes for both groups + PTX.
I've heard Pentatonix, VoicePlay, and Home Free referred to as the Trifecta of a cappella. They all seem to be really good friends. There are several times were one member of a group will appear in another's video (Avi Kaplan from PTX singing with HF in Ring of Fire, for instance, then doing a quick walk thru with a "Hi, there" wave to the camera in Champagne Taste on a Beer Budget). I've heard of several instances where one guy will help on the arrangement or choreography for another group's video. Another great example of this is VoicePlay's Just Sing, which should be watched with the closed captions on BTW or you'll miss a lot of information on who's who. Geoff and Tim side by side is a hoot!
Yes! Thank you for pointing out that the beatzboxer, Adam Rupp, wasn't featured enough outside of those silhouette shots (?!?). He's so good here...as usual. Loved your reaction!
Home Free "When A Man Loves A Woman", "Meet In the Middle", How Great Thou Art", "Woman/Female/Amen", "SOLD", "Folsom Prison Blues" and "I Swear". Tim Foust is the bass & has a 5 octave vocal range, check out "Misty Mountain" w/Tim Foust & Peter Hollens and you will get a load of Tim's bass.
Please please please jump down the Home Free rabbit hole. There's room for you. Maybe you've watched Pentatonix when Avi Kaplan was their bass before Matt (and he was white LOL)? Another one is VoicePlay's Geoff Castalucci ("Oogie Boogie's Song" is a wonderful cover that showcases him). They all have incredible ranges. Their stuff is insane.
What's up guys great reaction I love this group they are simply amazing you want to talk about bass . You have to do there cover of Ring of Fire by Johnny Cash featuring Avi from Pentatonix🤯
Really nice !! Boyz II Men, Az Yet, Brian McKnight etc... so many childhood memories !!! This was pretty dope !! The bass surprised me too lol !! Great vid guys !! 👌🙏
Home Free won the show the Sing Off in 2013 (the year after Pentatonix won) and Shawn Stockman of Boyz II Men was the judge and he loved Home Free. I’m sure HF wanted to do right by him. I think they nailed it. Yeah Adam, the beatboxer, doesn’t like to be featured too much but he’s so good. There’s a solo of him on RU-vid called Adam Rupp Drum solo. Home Free has great harmonies. Try Helplessly Hoping, Seven Bridges Road, Country Roads to listen to their great harmonies. Try headphones too, they really help. Enjoyed your reaction.
The beat boxer is Adam Rupp one of the founders of the group. Check out his drum solo video or keep watching Home Free videos he gets plenty of air time. The bass is Tim Foust and you haven't seen anything yet.
You guys really need to check out Ring of Fire by Home Free. It features Avi, formerly from Pentatonix and there is a great back and forth between him and the bass singer of Home Free.
Man of Constant Sorrow and, especially if you know it, American Pie (ft. Don Mclean in the 50th anniversary version of his classic). Reallyenjoy your reacts and your taste in music.
Welcome to Home Free now jump into the rabbit whole of wonderful covers. They all have talent Tim Foust the bass can sing in 5 octaves and Adam Chance is another bass.
They can sing anything. Challenge you to find a bad Home Free song. Great reaction. Beatboxer is a world champ. He has his own videos of his live beatboxing. The also change roles in other songs.
Check out Home Free's "Man of Constant Sorrow", "Folsom Prison Blues", and "Go Rest High On That Mountain". You will not regret any of those! ......... edit: AND THEN, have a listen to their cover of "Mayday" by Cam. That last song really brings the versatility of 3 of their members's vocal talents to bear.
First off - you all need to listen / view more Home Free as they are thee BEST singers on the planet .... and secondly whatever song they cover .... they own it ! P.S. Beat Boxer (Adam Rupp) is the best there is ! Check out their "May Day" cover ..... will blow your minds. GBjj
Adam, the vocal percussionist, was shown a few times by himself in silhouette. If you want more bass, I suggest their cover of "Ring Of Fire" featuring Pentatonix very own Avi Kaplin. Two great basses for the same money. ... Guy
Yo Philly.. Willow Grove/Horsham here.. Glad you enjoyed that one.. Many many Home Free songs.. Watch Ring of Fire with Avi Kaplan .. Tim the Home Free bass sings the last earth moving note. btw.. or Elvira or Country Fried Medley for more easily seen beatboxing... Adam Rupp is the beatboxer.. he sings, too! Depending on your tastes.. Butts Remix (lots of fun) How Great Thou Art.. the beatboxer sings the "all is well" verse. .. Country Roads, or the Very motowny. cover or Keith Urbans. Blue Aint your Color or John Mayer's Castle on the Hill or In the Blood.. but seriously.. headphones guys.. Thanks!
Fantastic song and fantastic reaction from you both!!! Check out VoicePlay acapella videos if you like harmonies and super low bass from Geoff Castellucci
Thx guys.... I really like how you "respect" the music enough not to talk all the time.. thank you !! Would love to see you guys wearing earphones/earbuds cuz the sound for ACCAPELLA is a 100X'S better..just sayin!' Again thx PS...Now as someone else suggested..When a Man Loves a Woman !!
Everybody's recommending the serious ones. Nothing wrong with that but don't forget the ones that will bring tears of laughter to your eyes. The Butts Remix/Medley, Country Fried Pop Medley, All About That Bass (+ the Behind the Scenes Blooper Real). And then there's the one with two slightly different versions and it's good to check out both. Search "Home Free Vocal Band: Guilty Pleasures" first, then the one that usually comes up with you search just the song title; "Home Free's Guilty Pleasures HILARIOUSLY Derailed."
OK...Forgot to request one of their new ones : “WHEN A MAN LOVES A WOMAN”.....Austin kills it!!!! Like WOW!!!! “AMERICAN PIE” ft. Don McLean...the writer/singer ....it’s the 50th anniversary of the song! And, Don still Has It!!! And, it’s the original version..8 1/2 minutes long!!! Flippin AWESOME !!!!
If you want to see more of their beat-boxer, then you need to react to Home Free’s cover of Garth Brooks’ song, “Ain’t Going Down ‘Till The Sun Comes Up”, or how about their cover of the song, “Man Of Constant Sorrow” before that? They’re country songs, but if you want to see the beat-boxer more, then I think you’ll enjoy them. Also, if you want more bass, then react to Tim Foust’s cover of “Misty Mountain”! It’s a duo with a friend of his, and not with the rest of Home Free, but if you like bass, then you’ll LOVE this! By the way, Tim has a vocal range of 5 octaves, and has been known to bust the speakers during shows!
