Alot of people think this is a masterpiece from the boys. I agree 100%
I certainly do as well!
The Falklands War was a major war between the United Kingdom and Argentina. This war saw both nations fighting over ownership of the Falkland Islands as well as South Georgia and the South Sandwich Islands. The war lasted from 2nd April to 14th June, 1982 and claimed the lives of 258 British soldiers.
The events of the war were what inspired the lyrics of this tune, which sees the narrator/singer singing from the point of view of a severely injured soldier who is about to die on the battlefield. His comrades stay by his side as he prepares to depart the earth. In bidding his fellow soldiers farewell, he tells them not to worry, for “every man has to die”. In his final words, he tells them how foolish “we” are “to make war on our brothers in arms”. By this, he means they should never have fought the opposing soldiers, who he considers their “brothers”. In his eyes, the war was pointless.
I only know a little about that war, but thank you for sharing this. Now i want to listen to it again with this knowledge.
And Argentina losses were 650 soldiers/marines/aviation pilots
The song has lost nothing of its topicality, on the contrary, the message is more current than ever. It is very emotional. The guys from Home Free did a fantastic job. Tim and Chance's voices are just phenomenal!
They did such a great job. This one really sticks with me. Thanks for watching!
And this masterpiece right here...THIS is why I consider Home Free the best! 🤯💞 The stunning harmonies in this are almost unearthly.
It's sung from the perspective of a soldier, dying on the battlefield; honoring his "brothers in arms" as he laments the sadness and futility of war. 😢 Hauntingly beautiful is the exact phrase to use. 👍
So powerful. It really stuck with me after i shut down the camera.
A hauntingly beautiful song and video. The boys are never afraid to sing about what they believe.
I can only respect that! Looking forward to more. Thanks for watching.
I, too, can only handle small doses of reality. Home Free has many upbeat patriotic songs--beautifully arranged. A tribute to to Home Free's patriotism and compassion. Prefaced by the Butts medley, a great example of their vocal versatility! Christians and others find "How Great Thou Art" filmed in the Austrian Alps very inspiring.
It's important to try to keep a balance. It's not easy, but i do actively try. I will add that one to my list. Thanks.
Their most hauntingly beautiful song, in my opinion. It brings a tear to my eye every time. Thanks for the Home Free reactions. If you need a song that will give you a feel good vibe you might try their " Love Train " cover. It is what i listen to and wstch to cheer myself up.
Well said. It struck a chord! Thanks for watching!
This is what we mean by #homefree taking you on a journey.
So grateful i found them. What a range of emotions already. Thank you for watching.
This song definitely hits you in the feels. I’ve watched hardened military veterans reacting to this openly weeping. It’s one of my favorites of #Homefree, but it’s not something I can listen to every day. I get where you’re coming from as to your mental health standpoint. As a manic depressive, it’s a daily struggle. Over the years, I’ve found that letting go of all the stupid stuff we drag around in our heads has helped. I don’t really obsess anymore about how I think others might see me. I’ve embraced my “inner weird.” I’m a bit older than you (I graduated high school before you were born 😆), and all I can tell you is keep your head down, take it a day at a time (or even hour by hour, if that’s what it takes), and eventually you’ll come out the other side and wonder what all the fuss was about. You just have to keep moving forward and find your happy place - family, music, hobbies, whatever it is that brings you joy and peace.
If you need a feel good song, try their upgrade of Listen to the Music. It will have you dancing in your chair!
Thank you so much for sharing this. I will take your advice to heart. I have gotten better at it the past few years and i have a ways to go, but like you said one day at a time. I will check out "Listen to the Music".
Yeah... this one hits hard. Peace, kindness, tolerance and acceptance are all critical for the survival of human kind. It's hard to fathom that so many people around the world don't truly understand that and are even working against it. In this cover, Home Free reminds us of how important this principle is - and its crazy cost. I love that these five men are unafraid to tackle this type of subject matter, and still produce things like the Butts Remix as well. Keep going down the Home Free rabbit hole, Saeed. So much more to experience with their incredible talent. Thank you for your genuine reactions. Peace, brother.
It does hit hard. I am really happy i found Home Free through this channel. Looking forward to discover more of their music. Peace to you as well ❤️
This is a masterpiece....no beatboxing, just pure 5-part harmony, and done to perfection.
Could not agree more!
Thank you for your emotional response to this haunting song originally recorded by the English group Dire Straits in 1985. It is impossible to react differently if you are a human being with a heart. If you need another recommendation, one of my favorites is Crazy by Home Free, an old song written by Willie Nelson but performed by Patsy Cline. Congratulations on your success with your channel.
Thank you for the kind words. I will definitely listen to Crazy at some point. I am looking forward to it. Have a great day!
Hauntingly beautiful! Loved Tim and Chance’s solos. They looked ghostlike in the windows. Loved the echoes. Amazing! 😃🤩
Yes! With the smoke, you could like see through them. So good.
Cheer yourself up by watching Home Free's recent cover of 'Life is a Highway'. This song that talks of how we shouldn't be going to war with anyone hits most reactors hard the ones who have served harder.
I will check that one out! Thank you so much for watching!
This always brings me to tears no matter how many times I hear it and I've listened to it many times. Even if the guys left out the words to this amazing rendition their harmonic humming would break your heart. To balance the emotional scale may I suggest "Champagne Taste on a Beer Budget" a Home Free original. Your reaction was touching and honest, thank you.
Thank you so much for watching and sharing. Balancing is definitely needed. I will check it out.
You need to watch their version of "Love Train" to cheer you up now. Thanks
Thanks for that recommendation. Will check it out!
Your reaction to this powerful song has convinced me to subscribe to your channel. You can see how this song affected you, as it has many of us. Home Free's version hits us right in the feels. So, peace from Kentucky!
Thank you so much for subscribing. Truly grateful. I look forward to discover more of their music.
I've watched this video at least two dozen times and it still makes me cry.
I can imagine. Its so powerful. Thanks for watching.
Watching this video right after "The Butts Medley" will give you emotional whiplash!
That is an accurate description. An emotional rollercoaster. Thank you for watching!
I have always been a fan of this song by Dire Straits but think Home Free did an excellent version of this song. Tim's natural breathy bass was awesome along with Chance's smooth baritone & loved it when all the guys were doing 5 part harmonies. Who would believe humming could sound so good. They gave it a very solemn feeling. I love that they don't overproduce their songs. These guys are my favorite a cappella group out there.
Its amazing the effect the humming has. What a journey so far.
I agree, this is haunting. I think it should be -- to remind us that war is never the easier answer to any problem. One world 🌎 ♥️ and Home Free has many videos they've shared to remind us we have more in common as humans than differences. It is one of the reasons I love this group and their fans. Thank you for reacting to this one now.
That is exactly how i try to live, to focus on what we have in common without losing respect for our differences. Thank you so much for watching!
So glad you are viewIng this One! Their harmony is So good
So good, but the weight of it got to me i must admit. Very powerful.
Such hauntingly beautiful masterpiece rendition of this song ❤
It truly is! Thank you for watching!
This video hits me very deeply. My brother and I both served at the same time. I managed to get a leave at the same time he was home from his first tour in Nam. I saw what it did to him and prayed he'd make it back safe from his second tour. He was very tormented from what he saw and by what he had to do. God Bless all our service men and women from around the world. Sometimes their sacrifice is the end and what we are left with are pictures and memories.
It's a very powerful and important song. Thank you for sharing part of your story. Have a blessed day!
You did fine with the song. You are not the only one so affected by the deep message of this lament about war and its futility.
It hit me. Such a powerful rendition of this song. Thanks for watching.
You have so many cheerful songs by them to listen to……..they are all awaiting you when you look through the lists of what they have done.
I remember the Falklands war in respect of being English…
I have gotten many suggestions for more cheerful songs. I will try to keep a healthy balance. Thanks for watching!
“Every line in your palm”. As he closes the young Soldier’s eyes
Thank you for doing this song. It is very haunting and sad. Of course, well done by the guys. It gets me every time. Again, thank you.
They did an amazing job. Thank you for watching.
Another great reaction to a great song from Home Free. Blessings from your brother Bruce 🙏🏼🇺🇸
Thank you, Bruce. I appreciate all the support.
HF always bring to me through their music such emotion-can be fun and joyful, but when they tackle a serious topic like this one, it’s definitely moving. Love these guys and am enjoying your reactions.
Their versatility is astounding. Thank you so much!
I always liked the Dire Straits version, but I only got really interested in this song through Home Free. (Although I have to be honest I think Dire Straits guitar playing is phenomenal)
Yes, this version of Home Free will send shivers through your entire body! This is so emotional. Beautifully sung by Tim and Chance, but the background and harmony of Adam, Rob and Austin is also so beautiful. It looks like a choir or actually a kind of church organ sounds. And the whole setting of the video is just amazing. Simple but with so many details that makes it so profound
Everything about it was perfect. It's even hard to describe. Very powerful.
Messing up is part of being human. All we can do is our best with the times we are faced with. No one can be perfect and that should humble us all. Great reaction for a very somber thought provoking song. Good job Saeed.
It's part of us. And i have messed up a lot in my life, but i have learnt and hope to improve myself and learn even more. Thank you for taking the time to watch and comment.
A powerful song that moved us with its haunting beauty.
So powerful! Thanks for watching!
This song is like a gut punch to me. I cry when I hear this, every time.😢
That is a accurate way of describing it. A gut punch. But still really beautiful.
For a lighter one maybe watch Tims solo Will you still love me tomorrow/stay...lighter one and will bring A smile
Thank you for this one! I will check it out!
Great reaction! Sometimes there are no words. That’s when you know you’ve heard something amazing. There simply aren’t words…
Indeed, sometimes words fall short. This was amazing. Thanks for watching.
I really enjoy your reactions. You do not insult our intelligence with your astute and sensitive comments. Keep up the great work.
Thank you so much. That really means a lot.
And the tears flow. It happens to me every time I hear this song. I often wonder why wars are basically started by Old Men. Maybe if they want to fight they should do it themselves and let the young live. Wishful thinking. God bless. See you soon.
I often wonder the same thing. Thanks for all the support!
This is a Masterpiece. Beautiful tribute to fallen soldiers 😢
It really is! So powerful and important song.
It is a major contrast between the last one you reacted to and this one. ❤Beautiful nonetheless ❤
It is. It's amazing how Home Free can just make you feel a wide range of emotions. Thank you for watching!
I agree. I won't turn my back on bad or sad news, but I don't seek it, either. This very solemn song deserves all the respect you gave deliver. Home Free has beautifully reminded us that "We're fools to make war on our brothers in arms." Thank you for sharing your feelings with us.
It can be overwhelming at times. It was a powerful rendition of this song. Thank you for watching.
This song is so hauntingly beautiful 💕‼️💕
An amazingly done video…just grabs you &, doesn’t let go😢‼️💕
It stuck with me the entire day. It's a tough one, but so important. Thanks for watching!
Thank you so much, young man ( I can say that because I'm old enough to be your grandmother 😊) for reacting to this. It will always have an impact on those who hear this song, and these 5 young men did it so much justice. Maybe you should have listened to the butt remix after this one to lift your spirit back up. But, there is another few great funny ones, 2 of which are Hillbilly Bone, and Country Fried Pop. Oh and Champagne taste on a beer budget. They'll get you laughing again. Like I said before, they can make you laugh, and cry. 😊❤
Yes, maybe i should have done it the other way around :). Thank you so much for the suggestions, i will definitely check them out.
Loved your reaction! This IMO is one of #Homefree s most thought provoking covers. Tugs at your feelings and thoughts. And I agree that listening to the news 24/7 can be overwhelming. That is why I love music. It can put you in whatever mood you wish to be in. Helps you clear your mind, get a break from everything weighing you down. It's therapy for you soul. For an upbeat, pick you up Home Free song check out Listen to the Music. I would also say you are well on your way to being a Home Fry! Thank you for your beautiful reaction! Have a wonderful day!
Thank you so much! I will check out your suggestion. And you are right, because i tested that theory out this morning. Before work i recorded a reaction to Sea Shanty Medley and i had a big smile on my way to work 😄. Thanks again!
@@SaeedReacts. that's great! Always a better day when you start it with a smile......and #Homefree😊
As a counter balance to this beautiful but heavy song, maybe listen to Home Free's 'Undivided' ---upbeat with a great message. 🙂 Thanks for your heartfelt reaction.
Will check it out! Definitely good to keep a balance. Thanks for watching!
This is a great video showing how homefree can do a song thar can impact people by making every one know these serious topics like war or loss is the impact of knowing hard choices are not easy to make but also there is not a lesser price to pay that at times we can't get away from. But I think homefree did this song really good. If you need a happy song go check there video brother it should make you happy.
Well said! I will check out Brother. I need to keep a healthy balance :) Thank you.
It really can be overwhelming. Especially when you're an Empath, a very sensitive person. I can relate to that. I avoid the news too. It can be too much for sure. Don't forget to take care of you after a song like this. A break is absolutely needed. At the same time this song is just stunning.
Yes, it's too much at times. It's definitely need to switch off once in a while to get away from that constant news cycle. But it is definitely an important song. Thanks for watching and sharing.
Such a great song!!❤❤ These guys never disappoint!!🔥🔥
Glad you are going on this journey and enjoying it !!❤❤
Its honestly a pleasure listening to these guys. Looking forward to more. Thanks for watching!
Give yourself a break and watch their version of "Everything is going to be alright ".
I will add this one to my list. It's important to keep a healthy balance! Thank a lot!
Written by Mark Knopfler of Dire Straits after the Falkland war
Thanks for the info. Didnt know that. I am learning a lot!
I'm a new subscriber to your channel. I really have enjoyed your reactions. You seem to have an appreciation for what you're listening to and experiencing in the moment. You make it feel like we're there with you. Thank you! ❤... This one always hits hard!
Thank you so much for subscribing and the kind words. It does really hit hard, but it's an important one. I am really looking forward to more of their music.
Ok. You have another Home Fry subscribed.😊
Thank you so much! I truly appreciate it. And more Home Free reactions coming very soon.
I personally can't you, thank you enough for your reaction. My tears haven't stopped since seeing your heartfelt reaction during your first stop of this video
..my Husband was in the Vietnam War as was my Brother. My Husband had (He passed in 2017) 2 Purple Hearts, and seeing your reaction to Home Free's version of this song, lets me know there are still younger people out there that understands the sacrifice that our loved ones made...❣️🌹
Thank you for sharing that. Your husband was a hero.
Hauntingly beautiful is exactly the right description. And a master class in 5-part harmony.
This was truly amazing. It hit me hard, but wow just amazing. Thanks for watching!
You are now ready for their cover of mayday.
I hope i can do it justice. Tomorrow i have some free time to record more reactions and i will put this one on my list. Thank you so much!
This is one of my favorites of theirs. It's hard to choose favorites, but a few others that I really like are "How Great Thou Art," "Blue Ain't Your Color," "Brother," "Do You Hear What I Hear," and so many more.
So good! I have added all these to my list. Thanks!
Three things…. 1) love your reactions that are so genuine, 2) remember that everyone that’s a home fry has heard the song you’re listening to many many times….pausing for your reaction is what this is about AND if someone complains about it recommend they go back to the original and listen uninterrupted….and 3) your English is great. Just DO YOU!
Thank you so much for these kind and encouraging words. Most comments are positive, but the humain brain (at least mine) sometimes latches on to 1 or 2 negative comments. But it's the ones like yours i draw strength from. Thank you.
A lite song you want? Try All About the Bass, Friends in Low Places, or Can't Stop the Feeling.
Yes! I will try to keep a good balance. Thank you.
Thank you! I enjoy watching you feel these reactions. Thank you so much.
Thank you so much. I am truly enjoying discovering this new music. It is so much fun.
This song is one that I don’t have in my playlist because I have to be prepared for the emotional journey this song has. Yet so beautiful.
Definitely one that i could not listen to every day. Very powerful.
I consider this one of Home Free’s masterpieces. Then they hit us with a pipe organ at the end. Now that you’ve had a dose of Chance, maybe check out “I Can’t Outrun You “(5 part harmony, and Chance’s lower register), and “Cover Me Up “- let this play out as there is a surprise at the end. Chance is a very emotive singer, and I love it.
Thanks for the suggestion and the tip for the end. I will take note of that. Have a great day!
Home Free always pays appropriate respect in their covers--especially to the content! Their talent is amazing--and I LOVE their 5-part harmony❣️🎼🥰🎶❤️
Such a genius touch to show the silhouette of the fellas in front of the window. I know some see it as a "ghost"y reference but it strikes me as a reflection of the POW/MIA flag. We'll never know just how many of those met the same fate as the soldier of this song. 😥
#HomeFree
They are really amazing. And this one really impacted me. Thank you for watching.
Consider reacting to HF’s cover of “Brother” for a laugh! Another laugh: Country Fried Pop.
I have those on my list. Already looking forward to it. Thanks for watching!
Yes this is a hard listen. I congratulate you for "working on your mental health". You are very sensitive and compassionate and loving so your mental health is alive and well. Another recommendation for cheering you back up is Aint Going down (til the sun comes up) a Garth Brooks cover. It will bring that smile back☺️
Thank you so much for watching! I will take your suggestion to heart and check that one out.
Your deeply human response to this song touched me. I'm glad I found your channel: not only for your reactions to some of my favorite music, but also for your musings. Your words about unfolding -- and unpredictable -- chapters are exactly right.
Thank you so much for being here and the kind words! Have a wonderful weekend.
I understand what you mean when you say you can't be bombarded with the news of the day. My mental health suffers when I watch too much of it my self which is why I like to watch reaction videos. I hope you're ok after listening to this. All the best.
Its too much sometimes. Definitely important to balance it out with things we enjoy.
I am well, thanks so much for checking in.
Hope you are too.
Have a great day.
If you want to lighten up some, try "Can't stop this feeling", "The Driver", or "Forever and ever Amen", among about 50 others in the catalog.
I will add them to my list. Thanks!
I can hardly every get through this one without breaking down. They really did Mark Knopfler proud.
Beautifully done.
This one was a bit out of the ordinary for them.
I just got into them so maybe i will see that when i have gone through more of their music. Thanks for watching!
Most of the songs they choose have a positive message.
This one and a couple others, should come with warnings.
I listen to "Can't Stop the Feeling" when I need a quick positive boost.
This is one of the songs where the beatboxer Adam Rupp also sings with the others. No beatboxing.
Such a great rendition! Thanks for watching!
A masterpiece of 5-part harmony showing off their amazing blend of voices ... their talent is outstanding !
Truly astounding! Thanks for watching!
New sub here! I just finished listening to all of your #HomeFree reactions - awesome😊
Do not worry about your pauses, don't worry about talking too much, and don't worry about your English (its great by the way!) just enjoy the music and give us Home Fries your honest opinion.
I watched Home Free win the Sing Off in 2013 and have been a #HomeFry ever since. We are a very loyal following and absolutely love new reactors❤
Glad to see you have headphones, even my cheap ones can pick up Tim's bass😂 and Adam's subtle sounds.
A few of my fave songs are Catch Me If You Can, Cover Me Up, and Try Everything. Eager to listen to the next song!❤
Thank you so much for subscribing, truly grateful. The journey so far has been a pleasure. I will add your suggestions to my list. Many more coming.
This is such a hauntingly beautiful, sad song. No beatboxing in this one, just terrific singing & harmonies. Although the video has an American slant, the song pertains to any member of any armed service in any country. BTW, Tim, Austin & friends do fund raising for at-risk veterans. Love from Canada.
It really is. So powerful and important. They are just genuinely great human beings and i am so glad i found them through this channel. Thank you for watching.
❤❤
No way i could listen to this song evey day i'am hard pressed to listen to it once a month.
For sure. I am the same way. Beautiful, but it's a tough one. Thanks for watching!
Now cover Mayday. I won't ruin the surprise
I have seen many people suggesting it, but some also said to wait until i know the members a little better. I still have some reactions that are recorded that will go on the channel this week. Thank you so much for watching.
I think you would enjoy their cover of Bohemian Rhapsody. Here is a link in compressed format: czcams.com/users/shorts7fGYKmkIH8Y
Thanks for the link. I will check it out.
❤❤❤❤
Thanks for watching!
New subscriber here. For unadulterated cheerful Home Free, go watch "Can't Stop the Feeling". I adore this one and it always makes me smile.
Thank you so much for subscribing. I will check that one out.
Then you should listen to them with Lee Greenwood, the US Airforce singing Sargents doing God bless the USA.
That sounds amazing. Will add it to my list. Thank you!
❤❤❤
The original is by the English band Dire Straits. I love this version and what they did with it
They really made an amazing rendition. Thanks for watching.
You DO NOT talk too much that's for people who whitter on about nothing. You don't do that you choose what you say, and it's relevant, so keep doing what you're doing. We enjoy your discoveries. Nana Karen UK
Thank you so much. That means a lot. ❤️
Home Free has several "sobering" songs in their repertoire, but they are seriously outnumbered by more upbeat music. Absolutely nobody does it better than Home Free. Enjoy their entire catalogue - it's huge. For something more upbeat, try "My Church" and "Country Roads".
Thanks for the recommendations. I will check them out.
❤
❤️
Very honest reaction Saeed ! I have a new artist for you to react to, try James Blunt. “ Monsters” thank you in advance.
Thank you. I know his more popular song (You're Beautiful) from a few years ago. Don't think i have heard this one. I will add it to my list and will definitely get to it eventually.
You please react to the cover of running up that hill by social repose
I will check it out. Thanks!
@@SaeedReacts. Your welcome
Please react to Craig Morgan The Father my Son and the Holy Ghost
I will add it to my list. Thanks so much!
As good as this cover was, nothing touches the Original by Dire Straits!! Just my opinion! If u haven't heard it, please do yourself a favor!
I will have to go back to listen to the original. Without it we wouldnt have this, so i always respect the originators. Thanks for watching!
I stopped watching the News
Me too ever since the pandemic. I only visit sites when i am in the mindstate for it and actually looking for something. Thanks for watching.
