Great to see you catching up on Home Free again. Great reactions. Check out the duet on Austin's solo page called Never Had a Dream Come True. He sings it with a gal named Makena Hartlin-she has a beautiful voice! They sound great together!
I enjoyed our little Home Free listening party too! I love the way you watch their videos so intently. Austin also wrote the last song Remember My Name! I really love to sing along to that one with the volume up. Austin is a great songwriter…he has 8 writing credits on the So Long Dixie album!
Thanks for doing 3 songs by Home Free. "The Horses" is a beautiful song! I had never heard it before. Nice to be introduced to 2 Australian singers Travis Collins & Amy Sheppard. Home Free does a great collaboration as always. "Playing With Fire" is a great original song! Rob & Austin do a nice job taking lead on this. Love the guys harmonies, Tim's bass & Adam's awesome vocal percussion. Also really like the video with the fire & the dancers. "Remember My Name is another great original song! Love the nostalgic feel of this song & the video. They mention a few of the country greats in this song. Also think it is a nod to the great baseball legend Babe Ruth. Austin sings about Willie (Nelson) at one point. Think his braids are an homage to Willie. Love Tim's lower tone in the verse he sings. And Adam is awesome as usual. These guys are so talented & in a league by themselves.
Yes, that was a nod to Willie Nelson. Loved the Horses which they shot when they were touring in Australia this past spring. They collaborated with Travis Collins and Amy Sheppard who are Aussie stars. It’s a big song over there (kind of like Sweet Caroline over here). Austin wrote both Playing with Fire and Remember My Name and the little boy was supposed to be Babe Ruth who used to point to where he would hit the ball. He as a huge star here in the states back in the 30’s. Home Free is going to tour in Europe soon. I think they were in Canada already? Hope you can go. 🥰😍
The Horses cranked some tears out of my eyes, too. All three were great, fun to listen to, and inspiring. God bless you, and thanks for another really special reaction.
“The Horses” was written by Americans Rickie Lee Jones and Walter Becker and was on the Jerry Maguire soundtrack. But a cover released in Australian over 25 years ago struck a chord and was a big hit. This is homage to that. I didn’t know Amy before this, but I’ve been checking her out in the Australian indie pop band Sheppard. (“Kiss My Fat A$$” is fun) And she’s doing some solo country work, and moving to Nashville for a bit.
Beautiful feeling with "The Horses"🐎🐎🐎... One could say Home Free is on “Fire”🔥 Home Free keeps hitting out of the “park”⚾and we will "Remember Your Name" - -"Home Free" 📝 . Just Wow!!!!!
That was so much fun. I am a Home Fry and have been enjoying your reactions to them for some time now. You really get into the emotions of their music whether it is happy, sad, solemn or just plain goofy and fun. Music is suppose to speak to us on that deep level and stir our emotions and passions. That is why I love their music and love to watch as you share your reactions to them. i believe they do take their tour to Canada some times. Hope they do again soon and you get to see them perform in person. That would be so cool. See you next time.
Playing With Fire was written with Andrew Tufano, Jeffrey East, and Ernie Halter. Remember My Nae is also written by Austin and Andrew Tufano. I love all these songs so much. Really nice seeing you again.
Austin’s video for “Georgia On My Mind” was filmed when they were on tour in Canada in 2022. I recognize Niagara Falls and the coast near Vancouver. They played London in April 2022. They were just north of Detroit for the Christmas tour last December 2022.
Miss Ashley, what a treat....a triple dose of Home Free but also of you Missy :) Missed you a LOT !!! All three are terrific but my favorite is "Playing with Fire" what a sultry and sexy song and that video with the fire dancers....simple yet PERFECTION !!!
Amy & Travis sound incredible with Home Free! There's a kind of irony in Adam beatboxing in front of a bunch of snare drums! Playing with Fire is a song to cuddle up to with your partner - the fire dancers are incredible. Remember my Name includes the names & songs of country artists (Austin's braids are a nod to Willie Nelson). The boys playing baseball reference Babe Ruth & their scenes are even sepia toned to reflect the era.
This video should be mandatory for every Home Fry. I love the harmony. My favorite was the last video, Remember my Name. The kid pulled a "Roy Hobbs" and knocked the cover off the baseball. How cool was that? Awesome job, Ashley. That's why I look forward to your videos. FYI: Home Free has been to London before. They tend to have a Canadian tour every couple of years.
I've missed your Home Free reactions. Thanks for doing these. The Horses is so much fun and was a great introduction to 2 great Australian singers. Playing With Fire is one of their few PG-rated songs, but the musicality is incredible. Did you see the guys messing with the candles in the background at the end? Remember My Name is a great encouragement to reach your potential. The years they mention are a couple of years before each artist really got famous. I think the video is referring to Babe Ruth before he was famous.
You are one of the sweetest dearest young ladies!!! I love how passionate you are about the songs and the emotion you show us. Thank you!! It was fun doing all three together, I agree. Good thing we ended with the super upbeat one with Luke Bryan, Garth Brooks, Willie Nelson mentions and then the young Babe Ruth! Great song by Austin again. (two of them in this threesome!) Take care kiddo.
Great 'triple play' reaction! Always enjoy how emotionally invested you get (in a good way!) with HF's videos. These certainly show their versatility. We've now seen the last of the videos for their 'So Long Dixie' album, therefore, anything they release, now, will be brand new! (We're all waiting on their official video for 'Skull and Bones.) Hoping we might see Rob and Chance getting a chance to take the lead on some of what's to come.
What a great way to start my week -- a triple treat of Home Free! These are 3 really wonderful videos, bringing 3 amazing songs to the screen. I enjoy your passionate reactions to music, sad or happy, sultry or snappy, you always get the feelings deep down.
Austin has been putting out quite a bit of solo work on his channel, too. Not all of his new songs have videos, but the audio is on the Releases tab of his channel.
They are touring the UK currently. I live in Texas, but my daughter lives in Birmingham, UK. I shared some HF videos with her and she bought tickets for their show in Birmingham on the 29th. She then called us and told us to get over there for the concert.😊😊😊😊I immediately got online and bought tickets. I hope you get a chance to see them yourself. Thanks for the reaction.
His braids are a nod to Willie Neilson I been wanting them to come to Canada to.The last time time they were in Toronto it was to far for me to go and expensive I don’t drive so train and hotel so expensive.
Hey Miss Ashley Scott here ism just like you I get teary eyed at all their videos of lol awesome reaction sweetie.norhing but love from you buddy here in the USA❤
Such good choices! I especially love Remember My Name. Every time I hear it I end up with it stuck in my head for weeks! I have to admit that I didn't really pay attention to Playing With Fire when it first came out, but I'm glad I watched it here. Your reactions are always so genuine that it makes my watching experience that much better. And when else have we seen Adam with his hair down?! I couldn't quite take it in when I noticed, but yeah, not pulled back at all! And then when everyone else was talking in the outro he's over there playing in the torch! smh LOL Great reaction. Thanks so much. I can't wait for the next one.
Hi Ashley! I know I haven't commented on any of your videos year to date that I know of, but I watch your reactions on repeat. Your emotions and reactions are so good. I noticed you haven't done Jinjer in a while. I really think you would like "Call me a Symbol". Its very similar to who will be the one, but even harder. I hope I get to react to you reacting soon. Thank you for the hours of happiness!
Please react to "Wayfaring Stranger - Epic Version" by Simon Khorolsiy feat. Chris Rupp. Its from right after Chris Rupp left Home Free. It is really...well, epic.
I enjoyed your reaction to these songs. You make me smile little lady. All 3 songs are awesome. Go check out Amy Sheppard. She is awesome. Home Free is The best there is. Keep on checking them out. Go watch "Skull And Bones. There are 3 Videos. You will love it. ❤️🔥❤️🔥
