- What a cool cover! Gave me a lot of childhood nostalgia, and had some fun little country moments here and there. Also, thanks to everyone who has helped the channel get to 500 subscribers! Previously I wouldn't have even bothered with putting this kind of thanks into the description but I hid an easter egg in the description of the last video and a ton of people noticed so clearly you guys actually read this thing! That's fun to know. Anyways, thanks again everyone, if you aren't already subscribed please do so, it helps small content creators like myself a lot, and also please give the video a like so that it can reach even more people!

Check out the original video I'm reacting to and support Home Free! • Home Free - Land Of Th... - Hry
Thanks man!! And just like FYI: Tim wrote this ages back and we FINALLY got a chance to do it! Love this tune and all it stands for 🥰
Nice! Writing, and performance! 👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻
Oh my goodness!! I am definitely a newer Homefry, as I have been informed they are called, but I am still a little star stuck at this comment! Your voice is absolutely incredible, and I can’t wait to see and experience more as I make my way through the Home Free catalogue 💖
Man you are so supportive of your fans I see you everywhere
Can't wait to see Home Free in October!!! First time! Just can't get enough of you all. Infinite Love and Gratitude 🎉
Thanks for setting the record straight, Austin! ❤️
That A5 note was Austin:) Not a cover. Tim wrote it years ago with his friend
Home Fries.....I think When a Man Loves a Woman is a must to truly appreciate Austin's high tenor
YES! I was just going to suggest that and then O Holy Night for Austin's high tenor notes.. Love Home Free and all of their stuff
I was just gonna suggest the same thing!!!
@@sallysmith5090 I used to wait at least till summer to listen to a little Christmas music. I became a Home Fry last December thanks to seeing Chris Rupp BTS analysis of Home Free videos. I listen to Do You Hear What I Hear, What Child Is This, O Holy Night, White Christmas, and Full of Cheer year round.
He’s pretty high on “ Can’t stop the feeling “ to. Plus I like their voice rhythm section they did
@@angelamason9840 You should check out their cover of Bing Crosby´s - White Christmas , they really put their COUNTRY spin on it LOL
One thing to look out for when you're listening to Home Free is that Tim and Chance both have huge ranges (Tim is 5+ octaves and Chance is 4+), so they occasionally jump up and sing tenor just because they can, and Adam the beatboxer if he's not beatboxing can be heard up in the rafters doing harmony, so it can be hard sometimes to pick up who's doing what. (Austin's timbre is probably easier to pick out. He's their belter, so if it's a high belted note, it's probably Austin.)
As an example, they did a song a couple years back, an Austin original, called "Love Me Like That". Austin sings lead throughout. At points, there is a high harmony part above Austin's melody line, and a harmony part below it as well. I think the intent with the arrangement was that Rob would sing that high harmony and Chance would do the lower harmony. But... The high harmony part was right where Rob's voice breaks between head and chest, and he was struggling to sing it. So instead, Tim jumps up from his bass part (which Chance takes over), takes that high harmony part for that bit while Rob sings the line below Austin, then Tim just seamlessly drops back down to bass. They do this kind of stuff all. the. time because their ranges are just so wide, and their arrangements aren't afraid to use those ranges to great effect (Adam's arrangement of "Do You Hear What I Hear" is probably the one that pushes the envelope the most with a part the HF guys refer to as "5 octaves in 5 seconds"). I'm going to love watching you react to some of those when you get to them.
Austin loves to do his wiggle dance when he sings. It's part of who he is.
That A5 was Austin Brown’s. 😆 If you review HF’s “When a Man Loves a Woman,” you’ll hear Austin’s amazing sky high register and voice acrobatics. Excellent review!
☝What Yolanda said. ☝
It's a really fun song, which Tim, and his friend and long-time collaborator Chris Chatham, wrote about 10 years ago, and which Tim originally recorded solo (with instruments - it's on CZcams in a couple of places). But with Home Free releasing a new patriotic album, it was the perfect time for them to record it. (This is the title track, and it's due out, I think it's the 25th June.) They filmed the video, along with several others, when they were in Nashville to perform at the Opry a few weeks ago - the first time they'd all been together since Christmas, when they filmed their Christmas special. So they enjoyed kicking back and having fun, as they love to do - horses, a cool jeep, and Austin fishing, whenever there's the chance...
I'm very glad to hear that you are planning on doing Helplessly Hoping, it's pretty awesome.
I cannot wait to hear his reaction to Helplessly Hoping !!!!
Austin Brown did that note. He does more of that in their cover of "When A Man Loves A Woman" Also you should check out Austin's cover of "Unchained Medley." It's gorgeous.
And to really get a feel for what Austin can do with his voice, watch Home Free's live performance where Austin gets to show off his classical musical theater training, Les Miserables, Bring Him Home. It will also blow your mind! He has one I love he recently did where he sings high all through it, a solo on Lets Stay Together. He did several solos this summer while they weren't touring, At Last is another great one. Check out Home Free Can't Stop the Feeling. And when you are ready for Christmas, check out Oh Holy Night by them. Wow! Thanks, subscribed tonight! Take care.
"I'll spare you the attempt" lol that made me giggle. Yep that was Austin there, he's my favorite. You've got to see their cover of when a man loves a woman Austin slays and if you want to hear more from him you can find more on his channel.
That was Austin !!! He can hit some insane notes !! Please more and more Home Free, you are finding things I had missed !! Thanks
THIS IS NOT COVER, this is an original, co-written by Tim the Bass. He also did the arrangement. This is the title song for their new album (which is patriotic themed). This release if perfectly times with July 4th coming up. I play to blast this loudly at our neighbors (Carlos & Maria) 4th Pool Party & BBQ here in Miami...Carlos always finds the best home fireworks !!
Not a cover Tim wrote it about 10 years ago and recorded it as a solo and they just rerecorded as a group.
Oh, that's why it sounded kinda familiar, I had heard a snippet of it in one of his vocal range videos
I'm a Home Fry from Taiwan. It's my first time to watch your reaction to Home Free. I like your analysis. Very professional. Thanks for sharing.
It's nice to see someone comment on Austin's voice. His tenor range is just as insane as Tim's bass, but he doesn't always get credit for his talent.
All their ranges are just crazy. I guess people are just more surprised when a bass jumps up and does tenor than when a tenor jumps up and essentially sings soprano. What's really amazing with Austin is how often those high notes are still in his chest voice.
When they do live shows, Chance covers bass when Tim does lead but, when in studio, Tim will track both lead and bass and then their awesome producer Darren Rust layers it into magnificence.
I love your reactions to Home Free.That was Austin’s high tenor voice you heard toward the end. Good job!!!!!
The group is absolutely phenomenal. I truly enjoyed your reaction, thank you. Adam Chance goes by Chance, so there is no confusion between him and Adam Rupp the beatboxer.
Awesome! I'm glad you checked Austin's note - it's crazy that he can hit that A5. I can hit that note, but then I'm a female barbershopper who sings tenor! I'm glad you pointed out the rhythm on the one "land of the free" - it sounds more like a syncopation than a triplet to me, but that's just an opinion. Looking forward to more reactions from you!
Really like your reactions. Enjoy your excitement and enthusiasm for great acapella music.
Really enjoying your reactions! I'm a big fan of Home Free, a "Home Fry" as the FANatics are called. There are so many really talented a cappella artists currently. Looking forward to more of your reactions. The quintessential cover for them is "Man of Constant Sorrow, but they have so many OUTSTANDING songs. Enjoy!
PS just subscribed.
That was a little boppin that Austin does and i absolutely love it! I can tell he is really feeling the music when he does his bop.
I am so glad there is someone out there who actually understands acapella that can do a good job reacting and analyzing (yup, I subscribed)... great job! As a Home Fry, I implore you to explore the Home Free catalog of music as there are sooooo many great songs that they've done. Also please consider Peter Hollens and all that he has done with Tim Foust and all of Home Free.
Tim Foust wrote this song years ago and Austin convinced him to let them record it.
"Helplessly Hoping" please. It's an amazing cover by Home Free.
I just stumbled onto HomeFree a little while ago myself. This group is fantastic! Curiously, my wife didn’t like Austin Brown’s voice that much outside the group because she thinks it sounds a bit tinny. Well I like it and he’s going to be her (and the neighbors’) favorite singer whether she likes it or not.
I would love to see your reaction to them doing “When A Man Loves A Woman.” Spectacular!
Great reaction! Great song with a great message! And the video is so fun and patriotic. This actually is not a cover. Tim Foust co-wrote this a couple of years ago and recorded it solo. So much talent in this group! I commend you for learning their names!! Another Tim cowritten song you should check out is " Snowglobe". It has more Chance awesome bass, Tim's higher range, fantastic vocal percussion by Adam and Austin and Robs great tenor parts!!! Thank you for your reaction!
These guys instantly became my favorites after hearing, literally, two songs and I just appreciate them even more after everything that they do and also their "behind the scenes insights". I saw them live but I truly love their videos! Welcome to you as a newbie Home Fry!
Some crazy range in these guys, and I love the arrangements from them, many times more than originals. Helplessly hoping is a must and then for a change, might want to check out Mayday and End of the Road. Thanks for another great reaction, love your point of view
That's Austin's little sexy dance, the women love it!
They were so happy to be together, in the same place, and it shows! 😍.
It's not a cover, Tim wrote it with Chris Chatham a good 10 years ago, and he had a solo version of it. With the whole group sounds much better! 💖 They have a Land of the Free album coming out soon!
Great reaction!
If it blows your mind that Austin hits an A5, Tim's range is A0-A5, so the bass could have reached it as well.
Great reaction! May I recommend one thing for future Home Free reactions... Can you please refer to Adam Chance as "Chance?" Although all Home Fries are going to know exactly who you are talking about, it will help for those who may not know as much about Home Free. The beatboxers name is Adam Rupp and the baritone is Adam Chance, but because he is the newest member of the group he usually goes by "Chance." Looking forward to more Home Free reactions!
Adam Chance is called Chance to keep from confusion with Adam Rupp who is the last remaining founding member. The other founding member is Chris Rupp who is pursuing his own projects on his own CZcams channel.
Mortius, I stumbled across your channel here a few weeks ago and have been lurking ever since. I like you're approach to song analysis and have now subscribed. Keep up the great work. Looking forward to your future reaction videos. If you can I'd really like to see your reaction/analysis to "Misty Mountains" by Peter Hollens featuring Tim Foust of Home Free. All a Capella. It is amazing.
Austin's falsetto A5 is insane. I don't mean to day this as a flex, but me and my brother arr, as masculine voices, able to hit A5's in our falsettos. The point of saying that is not to flex, but to point out how even though I can hit those kinds of notes, I still recognize that it's amazing and white rare to hear anyone hitting those kinds of notes as masculine singers.
Also, I just gotta say, you're one of my favorite reaction/analysis CZcamsrs out there. I only found you a week ago from someone suggesting you on a Peter Barber reaction, and gosh am I thankful for them. You're among the fee people on this platform who will not just react when they mention that they also have musical experience, but also analyze what you are listening to. I hate when people falsely ride their one words for money (like the sheer amount of vocal coaches that don't use their announced skill), and you are definitely not one of them.
Thank you for your awesome videos.l!
Wow, thank you! I really appreciate the compliments, and I’m so glad to hear I’m being recommended by other people! Making this kind of content has been such a blast.
You are a great reactor, really enjoy you .
I just discovered you 5 minutes ago! Love your reaction! You point out alot of stuff that I would otherwise miss. And your enthusiasm is contagious.😁 I understand how the video made you nastalgiac for home. Their video for Man of Many Sorrows did the same for meesp ehen I saw the gator. 😋 You have new subscriber now!
It's not a cover it's an original that tim and one of his friends wrote
so it's a Home Free cover technically
@@chomperone559 Well Tim also wrote this arrangement so you would have to ask him if he considers it a cover or not.
@@chomperone559 more like a Homefree original.
Technicalities... since it was released by Tim on his solo album and copyrighted, I would consider it a cover... similar to how Elvira is a cover even though they are singing it with the Oakridge Boys or the one they do with Don McQueen or God Bless the USA with Lee Greenwood or One Voice with Billy Gilman. Also, the arrangement is different than the original.
@@rachelhurst3224, “the one they do with Don McQueen”? It’s called “American Pie,” and his name is Don McLean.
Fun fact: Tim once managed to hit an A5 as well. Go check out their little live show comedy segment called 'Songs that didn't make the cut' you'll hear it in there. I won't tell you where exactly though, good luck finding it ;)
This song is not a cover. Tim wrote it with his friend Chris Chatham years ago for Tim's solo album, before joining Home Free. He has reworked for the group.
The high note is Austin. He is considered their high tenor. The bass at the end is Tim, more you listen to them you will learn the subtle differences between Tim and Chance (Adam).
Love these proud Americans! Another Home Free original!
Hey man! Really liking your observant and thoughtful reactions... And the the wardrobe is on POINT. Classy, bro. Glad I am getting in early on your reaction journey. So many awesome songs by Home Free, Voice Play, Pentatonix, Voctave... Can't wait to see your reactions!
Now... If you are ever willing to step outside the a capella genre in pursuit of vocal greatness... Dimash... BEST. VOCALIST. ALIVE. TODAY. Many have doubted that claim, and many have eaten their words of doubt. I want to see your pupils dilate, your brow start to sweat, and that look of absolute shock and awe cross your face as your mind tries to compute how all those vocalizations can come out of a single human being. I. AM. HERE. FOR. IT.
I really liked this song. It seemed so much more natural than many of their performances and the balance in the leads was really nice as well.
You should take the time to watch some of the videos of Home Free concerts, they goof around, Tim tells story, they forget lyrics, it’s all full of fun. Going to see them December 15! Can’t wait 😛
When Tim sings lead vocals , Adam Chance takes over base . He also can go real low to real high vocals . I have heard Adam Rupp do the same in a couple of songs
Home Free’s original songs are so good! I have loved this Tim’s Foust original song since I first heard it, and I am so glad Home Free released this vocal version. Home Free’s rhythm section makes me want to dance. I love listening to Adam Rupp’s percussion. I realized that this is my new favorite vocal warm-up song! That A5 note was Austin Brown, HF high tenor.
This is an original. Tim, the bass, wrote it. Austin is the high tenor and hit that high note. This is an uplifting song. Tricked out Jeep, hot dogs and hamburgers and horses and doggies…what more can you want? Nice to see them all together again. No more quarantine, YAY! Hope you liked it. Home Free is so good. Glad you’re going to do Helplessly Hoping…one of my favorites. Try Country Roads, In the Blood, What We Ain’t Got, I Can’t Outrun You. Good reaction.
you should really listen to Tim's original version where he sings all the parts by himself. It was always a favorite of mine because it showed off his range.
Your reactions are terrific! For intricate and technical content check out their version of “Silent Night.” It is stunning.
Austin does an amazing rendition of At Last by Etta James. Check it out on youtube.
Love these guys and they have so much fun.♥️
Love, love Home Free!!! Please keep reacting to them!!❤
Thanks so much for reacting to this Home Free song. It is so good and it seems that you are enjoying it also. :) If you haven't already heard ...End Of The Road... is a great one...Feelin It...fun...Friends In Low Places...fun...What We Ain't Got...sad...just a few if you haven't already reacted or watched these. Thanks again.
:-) A5 is for Austin. Welcome to the Home Fries! ;-) Great reaction - I always appreciate it when an acapella singer reacts to Home Free , I learn so much. Thanks!
Loving the reaction to Home Free.....
I know you heard that Tim wrote this. It would be a great 4th of July tune. Thanks for your reaction
I am a Pentaholics, but I am discovering you guys and loved this song and the vibes it gives to me. Great job!
You can be a Pentafry if you like.
The next two home frees you need to do are “ring of fire” and “when a Man loves a woman”
You got new subscriber in me! I love how you break the song down into the individual parts. Also cool to hear an actual singer react to them, someone who can actually pick out the notes. I love the Home Free version of What We Ain't Got by Jake Owen. The harmonies between Tim and Austin are incredible! Also Honey, I'm Good by Andy Grammer, and Do You Hear What I Hear arranged by Adam Rupp. That is a fantastic eargasm everyone should hear!
New sub here. I love your attention to details other reactors don't catch. Please cover Folsom Prison Blues, Sea Shanty Medley and Hillbilly Bone.
Ring Of Fire is my favorite. Can't wait till you do that one. Will be anxiously waiting for it 💯❤
I think (Adam)Chance did the bass for all of this, with Tim singing baritone. Chance was the bass with his old group Street Corner Symphony.
Oh you know what everyone sings now? I recommend, in this order, man of constant sorrow, folsom prison blues, and then mayday. Just to be sure..
Love Home Free. Tim does the bass, Chance is the baritone but he'll switch with Tim. Tim has a 5 octave range. Check out Man Of Constant Sorrow, then Mayday to see Tim's range. Tim's base on Misty Mountain with Peter Holland. The just fun videos would be another Tim original Champagne Taste on a Beer Budget. Also the butts remix is genius and hilarious. They have a deep rabbit hole, have fun.
You know when tim sings deep bass with his voice watch his hand movement, if he sing mid to high his hand goes up and when he goes to low note his hand moves down
Oh, …Tim wrote a Winner ‼️🇺🇸‼️. This is my new 4th of July song 🇺🇸🇺🇸‼️🇺🇸🇺🇸 AWESOMENESS 🇺🇸🇺🇸❤️🇺🇸🇺🇸
Love the song and your reaction!
Would love to see you react to a LOT more Home Free. Namely Man of Constant Sorrow, Ring of Fire, Seven Bridges Road, Helplessly Hoping, and once you're super comfortable with their roles and ranges, listen to Mayday. Trust that you need to wait a little for Mayday, it's worth it!
That A5 was most certainly Austin Brown. Check him out in When a Man Loves a Woman....an in May Day.
Home Free did Tim's orig. proud>
he 1st sang it on his all originals
awesome Solo album "The Best
That I Could Do" 2011 he radio-
toured wit((hilarious vids) b4 HF
This isn't a cover. It's a Tim original that he wrote almost 10 years ago. 👏 🎶 👏
I had to laugh about you asking what Austin's little dance was. He does it in a lot of the videos. I think it looks like he's about to break into that dance "the floss" he just doesn't follow through with the arms! 🤣
Hi. Love your reaction. This song was written by Tim Faust and his friend, so we consider it a HF original. I call this song peppy patriotic. Love it.
"So I Will Sing And Let It Ring" was Tim continuing the line, just singing in his higher register, Then Austin came in! On that first chorus! Yeah, Tim ! Tim has a 5 octave range! Watch Tim in " Misty Mountains" Peter Hollens ft Tim Foust then
"Mayday"&"Snow Globe" Tim might have a couple of surprised! Then
"Thinking Out Loud/Let's Get It On" Ed Sheeran and Marvin Gaye cover then
"Let's Stay Together" Austin Brown, that did the A-5 at the ending background for Land of the Free. Also "In the Blood" John Mayer cover.
If I repeated a song request or you've already done I apologize! Thank you!♥️Love Home Free! 🍟
Austin has a dancing spirit.
Great reaction ❤
Mortius, check out Tim Foust birthday bash brunch. The song is Smile. Tim shows how high he can go.
Just subscribed for more Home Free
The A5 was Austen Brown
Home Free is awesome, as are Voiceplay and Pentatonix, but if you were blown away by an A5, you should check out Dimash (whose last name I can neither pronounce nor spell). He sang SOS at Biden's inauguration, and that is a perfect song to introduce him to you.
Can you react to HOME FREE - WHEN A MAN LOVES A WOMAN?
I 2nd this
If you like when they go instrumentational, you should listen to their live version of 9-5 by Dolly Parton.
You should listen to the solo version from Tim, he absolutely slays this song.
Now to really knock your socks off...
Tim can hit an A5 too...
please react to"when a man loves a woman", "fulsom prison blue" , "sold" and sing off finale "i want crazy" and "honey im good" tim goes crazy..lol
You should do a reaction to "My Church" and "Leave This Town" covers by Home Free! Similarly, you should react to Home Free's performance on "The Sing Off" doing a cover of "Ring Of Fire" and noticing the judge's comments at the end.... and that brings us to "The End Of The Road" cover of Boys2Men. And I am a new subscriber.
Need to Check Mayday think you will enjoy it .
Oh, and watch Wake Me Up, and tell me what they are saying. I think it’s hum banana 🍌 and catch Austin’s scat.
I think Home Free has their own company so you do not have copyright issues. You might find it helpful to listen to their Sing Off performances, really shows a range of
styles. I like that version of Ring of Fire better. Have you listened to their version of How Great Thou Art yet
A5 meet Austin Brown
Home Free original. Tim Foust arrangement 🇺🇸❤️🎶
This was an original song Tim wrote this.
You should listen to Helpless Hoping.
This one is an original written by Tim
Austin hit the A5
Its an anthem. Thats the unashamed intent.
Mortius, just curious. You said you r from a small PNW town... where ? I was and still currently live in Albany, Or...
Here is the og video: czcams.com/video/PSoOC81Nd3E/video.html
This was not a cover. It is an original, written by Tim. Also the main beatboxer is Adam Rupp not Adam Chance.
