Home Free - John Denver - Take Me Home, Country Roads | Reaction 

I think John would be considered more of a Folk singer rather than Country. 🤷‍♂️😁

Ain't Going Down Til the Sun Comes Up you WILL be blown away by it. Uts only on their Facebook page because of copywriter issues with YT or the record company. Hope you can get to it shortly

This is one of my favorites and always will be. ❤️🔥🔥

John Denver would just be tickled pink to here there cover of this

I love your reactions...they are so joyful! Love your reactions to Home Free always. Actually John Denver was a folk rock, Western country soft rock artist and a prolific writer/singer. This is one of my favorites from many years back.

The sheer delight on your face when you're listening to Home Free makes me just so happy. Loved it! Great reaction, man.

I agree this is one of their very best....and your reaction was the best ever!

I grew up listening to John Denver's songs. But I feel Home Free took this one to another level for me. It is one of my favorite covers of this song. I love everything about it. It is a masterpiece.

We can't say it enough... "AIN'T GOING DOWN ('TIL THE SUN COMES UP)!!! Yesssss, it's THAT good! It's on their Facebook page, but well worth going there to grab it. You know how all our guys have shared the leads?? Well, guess who shines in this one?? Mr. Adam Rupp! Between his outstanding beatboxing and drums right out of the gate, he's got multiple solos on "no-monica" (and apparently electric guitar!) that'll blow your mind! 🤯 The pace of this song will leave you gasping for air. Haha

I know it's one of their best covers. They put the Home Free sauce to it. Great reaction

I missed your HF reactions! 😃. You made me smile so much my face hurts!

John Denver's version is obviously the classic. Chance's version with Peter Hollens is lovely and has a modern feel. But Home Free's version is still my family's favorite--hands down! Besides the unbelievable harmonies, getting to hear Adam Rupp's sweet tenor actually singing is such a great treat ❤️🎼🥰🎶❤️

Because this is such an iconic countrysong it actually took the guys over 5 years before they felt it was ready . I listened to this one in my teens in Denmark so yes John Denver is FAMOUS

Was looking forward to you reacting to this Home Free's version. To me they never sounded better and looking so fine. All that denim and plaid...oh my.

Always love Home Free. Chance did this song with Peter Hollens too. Chance had two songs premiere yesterday on RU-vid and then got hit with a positive virus result. The guys are going to finish out the Canadian shows as a quartet while Chance is in quarantine. Sending best wishes to Chance.

John Denver gets tagged as a country artist these days, but in his prime he was more on the folk/pop/soft rock spectrum. But his songs have been covered by singers of all genres. He was a multi-faceted artist too - he acted, and had several TV appearances. Loved his work with the Muppets, too.

They may be 5 of the mot talented men on Earth in one band. Wow. Thanks for your time and reactions

Absolutely phenomenal vocals and harmonies not to mention the interpretation of this classic song!!

Wow never thought I’d like anyone singing this but John. I was 14 when he came to Australia and I got to see him 3 times because my brother and sister worked at the regent theatre in Sydney . Wow these guys are brilliant harmonisers xoxox

Nick, glad you finally got to see & hear this one. The story I heard was they sat on this arrangement and piqued it for nearly 6 years until they recorded it. They felt that their sound with Chance (and not Chris) was best for this one, and I think they were right, It was one of only three covers on the Dive Bar Saints album, which was released in Sept 2019, just 6 months before the 1st Covid lockdown. By the way keep good thoughts for Chance who is stuck in Winnepeg, Manitoba because of testing positive for covid, and so far has only shown mild symptoms and is being taken care of very well.

This is one of my top 5 favourite Home Free performances and it's always been one of my favourite songs. Just beautiful.

This is one of my favorite songs they have done.

Love you enthusiasm for sheer musicality! Kinda like hearing you sing too!!!!!

They gave this song an R&B flavor, with a modern country harmony. Epic.

This is the best cover I have ever heard

If you haven't heard the original, check it out just to appreciate the arrangement they came up with. The original is fun and kind of bouncy... but HF's version is so melodic. Crazy good! Both versions.

I feel it is the grass it brings out something in them.

So glad you finally got to this! It's one of my favorite covers. Their arrangement of this is top tier! Thanks Nick! 💙

Being born and raised in West Virginia. This is bar none one of My favorite songs of all time. Love John Denver. Great rendition.

This song is please...yes and thank you. An iconic song was just amplified with great vocals.

Our boys had been asked many times to do this song but it is such a well known and well loved song, they held off doing it until they figured out an arrangement that was perfect. And they did it justice! Other than John Denver's original, this is my favorite version. ( Not kidding about the song being well loved...you can hear it being sung by crowds at soccer matches, which so cool to hear!)

I love Tim's vocals at the end on this one. I wish he would do that more often.

John Denver has been dead a while now, but he was part of my childhood. I'm 50 this year, and have super fond memories of him. He was truly a sweet, kind-hearted man. If you want a bit of a good time, check out his appearance on the original Muppet show. Heck, if you want a REALLY good time, check out PRINCE'S appearance on the muppet show.

It is a joy to watch you watch great vocals and get caught up in your excitement.

Legendary song, and I love their take on it! Congrats boys!! 👍🏼👍🏼😎❤️

Darlin I’m so glad you appreciate him (AND Home Free)! John Denver was, is and always will be one of the GREATS!!!!

Love your reaction! Home Free are always awesome!

I love your reactions! They never fail to get me in a good mood. Your happiness is contagious 🙂

Home Free magic makes yet another song their own. They took a really good song and made it extraordinary. Nothing new, it's what we have come to expect from our guys. Every solo was perfection, every harmony soared and Adam's beat boxing was stellar as usual.

Wait till you hear this live... it's phenomenal!!

One of my favorites by John Denver and they did themselves proud! Loved it, loved your reaction too.

They sound really good singing anything.

The best thing about this song for them in particular is that every single part is in their individual sweet spots. The song just lives in the most comfortable range for each of them and you cannot get better than that for a group like them. They can’t go wrong. (Also Chance just released a song on his channel with Fox and Hound. Please watch even if just for yourself).

John Denver was a favorite growing up. This is by far the best cover of this song I have heard to date, IMHO. It is absolutely beautiful and I have to believe John would be very pleased with this version ❤

John Denver's song is a really faster tempo and sounds very country. Home Free slowed it down and added some soul into it and I like their version of the song better showing their harmonies and everything, you can feel the longing for going home to W. Virginia. I'm not from there but they got me wanting to go home to W. Virginia.😄

Love this song and this version the guys killed it

Love their harmonies, modern country ? Very nice 👌

I love how excited you get in your reactions. You just let it all hang out and I'm here for it! Keep 'em comin! You're an absolute joy to watch! ❤

Love this! I love it when any genre can flex and show their talent in other genres. Home free said plain Country? Nah, we will make it Country, give it an R&B beat, mix in a little soul and gospel to round it out! Incredible version!!

This is one of the songs I would sing while walking with my son...we didn't have a car and music made the trekking go faster...that was 40 years ago...🌿🌿🌿

My friend, you need to listen to John Denver sing Annie's Song live. It's near perfection. He was a brilliant singer/songwriter with a clear, beautiful tenor.

Dominick, I just want you to know... I've been suffering with anxiety all day. I've been trying to get out of my own head but nothing has been able to grab my attention. There's been nothing to change the direction of my thoughts. Until this reaction!!! You make me laugh so much because your reactions are so much like my own. You get so excited about the little things and you just want to yell! I just love it, especially when you're reacting to Home Free. Anyway, I just want to make sure you know... You're helping people. One moment at a time what you're doing is putting smiles on broken people all over the world 💜 YOU matter and what you're doing matters. Big hugs 🤗

My favorite John Denver song is Grandmas Feather bed. My husband, kids and I would sing his songs on road trips. Loved those times.

Love how easy it is to tell the songs you really like vs others you react to.

This is my top 3 from Home Free...My all time favorite is Hillybilly Bone!

Well I’m gonna be 60 in March, but if you are around in the mid 70s even the early 70s John Denver was everywhere. He’s like a square that became popular. The later in the 80s, he came out with some great stuff.

You r a doll! I love ur voice. As a professional pianist, I had to hear them in person and I did in Atlanta in 2023. They did not disappoint.

When life gets hard, I come back to you, and Home Free. Thank you!

Your pure enjoyment and excitement of Home Free just makes me smile. I love your reactions. 👍

This is absolutely my favorite reaction to this song.

A cover again so wonderfully good. I also liked John Denver's, but this version of Home Free surpasses the original. Yet they do maintain the respect for the song. Rob with his beautiful lead combined with the others is great again. Adam who has swallowed another drum kit😉 finishes it off completely. In one word phenomenal👏❤

Bruh you are killing these home free reactions, it comes through that you are a huge fan and I know exactly where your coming from 👍🔥💯

I love, love, love Home Free and you make me appreciate them even more! Thank you!

Home free knocks it out of the ball park again! I love your take on it.

Grounded Indeed!

I love seeing your smile light up when you get into their songs! Better be waving that cloth at the Bengals tonight and this weekend! Get us some offensive linemen! WHO DEY!

Love Chances voice, sounds like whispering melted chocolate!! Nana Karen UK

Love the home free reactions 🙌🏽

Born and raised in west Virginia the best state you will ever visit. # almost haven.

Just saying my friend. Love Pentatonix and Voiceplay, but these guys are Just the best ever. They mesh perfectly!!!! Rob and Austin sound so much alike. Chance has been looked over a lot with his awesome voice. Adam Rupp!! What can I say? 😁😁 then there is Mr. Faust. One of the best bass country singers ever!!! Thank You for your Reaction.

The smile on your face says it all!

Need to watch home free meet in the middle

It’s in my Top 5 HF songs as well. I am always excited to see your HF reactions and love the absolute delight and awe as you do so. It mirrors how most of us feel and not only do their songs and amazing arrangements make me smile but your reactions always do too!

This is now in my Top 5 also!! These guys are so good. Going to see them in Myrtle Beach in June. Can’t wait. Hey Great job on this reaction!! I appreciate your knowledgeI. I’ll be back on your next HF.

I haven't snorted in 20 years until right now. Gospel Austin, no that's Jesus. OMG funniest thing I have heard in a very long time

Love watching your reactions, you are so funny, entertaining but have great respect for your reaction. Thank you. Nana Karen UK

Oh I’m so glad you did this. It’s one of my favorites too. They said they took their time arranging this as it’s an iconic song and wanted to do it right. They made it a ballad. I love it. Loved your reaction SR! Amazing! You always make me smile😄🥰

I wanted Noah to sing this so bad! He could’ve waited one more week to branch out something other than country. 🤣😉

I swear we had the same inner thought "yo bigger man has the falsetto WAT"

You can tell I'm live reacting here in comments. YOU singing their bits in perfect key brings me so much JOY! I chuffin love it! Theres a British word for you. just a cuss coverup

One of my favorites, for sure!

I hope they do some other John Denver songs, like "Annie's Song". Meantime, you should listen to original John Denver. He would have LOVED singing with Home Free!

One of my favorites!!❤️

Your reactions are awesome! I could listen to you talk all day long!

I’m 61 years old. I heard the original many times. This looks s literally 100 times better than the original.

Still one of my favs

Such a fun reaction. They really got you fired up this time. You got me to laugh with you.

I love your reactions and I really love Home Free!

Somehow I was shocked you were unfamiliar with this song. It was just so popular and played non stop for years. Home Free worked for several years to get this arrangment just perfect. They wanted their own spin on it and they achieved Magic.

Misspelled! Love YOUR enthusiasm.

Gorgeous! Thank you for sharing!

Love this cover. Geoff Castellucci also did a fantastic cover of this song that you now have to put on your reaction list.

First time heard in kingsman, my fav song

I don't think there's a recording of Home Free doing it, but another well-known John Denver track is 'Fire and Rain'. I can't think of any names right-off, but there are some great renditions out there!

FYI... John Denver really wasn't a country artist per se. Yes, he sang a few country songs but he was more of a folk/pop singer. He got his start with the New Christy Minstrels way back in the day - way back. John was enormously popular in the mid to late 60s and had his own tv show. His biggest song was Rocky Mountain High - which was a huge hit. RIP John Denver

Have you listened to Chance when he sings with the Fox and Hound? Check out Sound of Silence and Wayfaring Stranger. His voice is smooth as velvet. So masculine.

Don't know if you are holding off on doing Christmas songs until closer to Christmas but I donated for Home Free - Joy to the World (Hosanna Concert) before last Christmas and have reminded you several times (per your request) and still nothing. I think you are going to love it as Gospel Rob takes the lead on this unique and funky arrangement of a Christmas classic.

Annie's Song is one of his best hits.

John Denver didn't write his first hit record, "Take Me Home." The first hit song he wrote was "Leaving On a Jet Plane," recorded by Peter Paul and Mary.

Yes!!! I've Been Waiting ❤️❤️
