- Welcome!
In this video I'll be reacting to both the studio (ft. Avi Kaplan) and live (Sing Off) version of Ring of Fire from 5 man a cappella group Home Free. How will they go with this classic Johnny Cash song? Guess you'll have to watch to find out!
Studio Version is here: • Home Free - Ring of Fi...
Live Version is here: • 3rd Performance - Home...

Imagine when Julia discovers The Misty Mountain with Peter featuring Tim.
I think a Ric Flair WWWHOOOOOOOOO would probably cover it
Tim’s lowest note is a C 0
I would love to her reaction to Tim blowing out the speakers at an outdoor show.....
Agreed. Then follow that with mayday.
I was about to post this as well she will love this one
“That’s the ‘leave your number with my secretary look’” 😂
that killed me 😂
The ladies think Austin is cute, but Tim sings at the resonant frequency of ovaries. :D

Every time Tim goes low we see a woman’s “O” face
Hell, a mans as well
It’s true though, he instantly made my eggs drop...
LMAO
"Gee whiz is that effective"
@@casspeus Tim definitely got Shawn right in the B(ass)-spot in the Sing Off!
"It's like tsunami after that last note". I bet lots of ladies feels like that 😅
Giggity 😂🤣
And some gentlemen, too...
indeed
Glad somebody else said it first
@M 40 "Sweet baby Jesus"
Who wants to listen to Julia sing? I know I would.
@VeryPeculiar1 true!
Her velvet voice and Aussie accent are divine! Please Julia, sing one of your favorite tunes for us!
@VeryPeculiar1 LOLWUT? Why so ambitionless?
Can i ?
Wonder if she could get a collab with Avi, or Home Free...or both.
Had a tenor voice teacher tell me how in all the musicals, the tenor gets the girl. My bass response: not behind stage.
Hahahahahahaha
ROFLOL
So true
Both Avi and Tim have an absolutely HUGE vocal range.
both are somewhere around 4 octaves, most people get two to play with
@@caligo7918 Tim is 5+ octaves. Tim is helping Avi to get 5 octaves
@@isaiahbangura4421 tim holds the world record with a 8+ octave range
@@brycecoleman2725 I was talking about Tim Foust from Home Free
@@isaiahbangura4421 ok
"He is on a G1, sweet baby Jesus" LMFAO, I honestly don't know that make me laughs so hard but it did hahahah
"the voice is connected to your mind so if your mind is slightly stressed your voice will be slightly stressed"
welp, time to find a new hobby
I cracked up at the "Look mum, I can sustain!".
I like to think of Tim as rich, strong black coffee, While Avi is deeply dark coffee with cream.
“Do you hear what I hear” is something I strongly recommend
This one is sooo pretty
And it's arranged by the beatboxer!
Right on brother
If you like Tim singing high, try "Mayday" Home Free Cover. :)
So Tim has been sniffing the good stuff, eh? :o)
So excited to see this! Normally we fries tell people to wait for a while before they do Mayday, but Julia definitely knows enough about the voices she's hearing to know how amazing Mayday is!!
Malachi O'Leary I agree.
Definitely Mayday is a must react...
Doooo iiiiit!
The live version was their first ever performance of the song. They arranged and practiced the performance in a week. Just. One. Week. Harmonies, runs, the theme break, everything. That they managed this performance in so short a time is hell impressive. The studio performance was months later, so no surprise they polished the performance somewhat.
Oh, and F#1. He can go lower. Tim's lowest chest note is a nice, clean F1. He can growl out a B0. His falsetto tops out some 5 octaves up from that.
Not sure Tim is actually human.
Great..first reactor that compared the two versions.
Thoroughly enjoyed it.
Nope. This was posted a month ago.

@@DennisKovacich he sucks though
There are 3 songs you need to do
1. Home free cover of Mayday
2. Home free cover of Elvira featuring The Oakridge Boys
3. Peter Hollens cover of Misty Mountains featuring Tim Foust
Blaze Master agreed.
Hell yeah these are the best
Jupp
Don't forget "End of the Road"
4. Peter Hollens and Avi Kaplan doing Black Is The Color Of My True Loves Hair
You pointed out that Tim hit a low G in the first one, but you didn’t seem to notice that the live one was a half step lower so he hit an F#!
wow!
What is F#? I'm really new to stuff like this and I'm trying to learn.
@@Deerhunterjs, on a piano keyboard, The white keys are called naturals, with notes from A to G. The black keys between some of them are sharps and flats. You’ll sometimes also see a number after the note, such as G1, which indicates which octave the note is in, counting up from the left end of the keyboard. F# (F sharp) is the same note as Gb (G flat), being the black key between F and G.
@@DennisKovacich while that makes a little sense to me now, as I learn more I'm sure I'll understand what you're saying better. Thanks for the explanation, but how deep or low is an f#?
@@Deerhunterjs, how deep or low it is depends on which octave it’s in. The black keys are in groups of two or three. The two are C#/Db and D#/Eb, while the group of three are F#/Gb, G#/Ab, and A#/Bb. The white key to the left of the pair of black keys near the center of a piano keyboard is called Middle C or C4, so the first black key in the group of three to its right is F#4. That’s not low all. But the note Tim hit at the end of the line Sing-Off version of “Ring of Fire” was F#1, which is the lowest F# on the piano keyboard. If you don’t have access to a piano, there are apps for phones and tablets that can help you visualize some of this.
The facial expressions she makes are priceless
She almost slipped off her chair @1:59
@@carllutz7523 Lmao
Professionalism and knowledge of her craft aside, this woman is devastatingly beautiful beyond measure. I can not imagine anything more sublime than having her face be the first thing I see every waking day.
Their “auld lang syne” is pretty great
DITTO - for awesome blending
I actually have an off-mic performance on my computer that I keep meaning to upload from their Raleigh concert 12/2019.
The live version didn't exist before this sing off, they chose the song and had about 10 hours to come up with this arrangement. This was their debut of Johnny Cash's song. The first one you played w/Avi was much later.
That last note in the live version is F#1, versus G1.
This was the birth of that version. They only had a few days, during the show, to pick out a new song and create an arrangement for the next broadcast.
The live was also in a bit lower register, maybe half a step. That audience's guts were rumbling at the end for sure.
If you watch the rest of that video, the host says they were getting calls about a seismic event.
Half step for sure. The recorded was in G and the live was in F#. Pretty danged ambitious for that low note at the end.
You are right on that Tim's little smile at the end was " yes, your welcome ladies and you can leave your number with my manager" But also Austin's grin was like " Y'all liked that, didn't ya. I'm available."
The collaboration between Home Free and the Oak Ridge Boys for Elvira is phenomenal. Absolute 🔥🔥🔥
The“ you can leave your number with my Secretary"look killed me :D
Beside the as-always-great analysis, your facial expression at time mark 1:58 would have been worth it all alone ;D
I prefer 4:25. 😂
@@rainbowwarrior6452 it was the moan right after that I liked the most.
I've seen Home Free twice in person. Tim regularly shakes dust loose from building fixtures. He also blew out the diaphragm on his microphone and they had to stop the concert for a couple minutes so they could get a spare set up
Not only was there more stress because it was a competition, but they developed the arrangement as part of the competition, and the “studio” version was done later, rather than the other way around. So they had the opportunity to refine it for the “studio” version. Both performances were absolutely brilliant.
Also, I remember during the Sing Off thinking, “For a show about live performance, their sound engineering isn’t as good as it should be.” It was a bit of a shame because there were some amazing performances that would have stood out even more!
Awesome review as always. Thanks.
I should have realised the ladies like the deep voice 30 years ago... oh well, mine wasn't as deep then as it is now
As a Tenor, I have no hope...

@@maurogasparini3023 FREAK!!! FREAK!!! ;-)
Really like the way you do these reviews. With the comments on top of the pictures which allow you to give a lot of information but not interrupt as much. Wish more people did this!
There's nothing like seeing them live....Tim's low notes rattle in my chest and almost hurt! For pure harmony, I would like to recommend Auld Lang Syne. So beautiful.
In addition to live vs prerecorded, the Sing-off performance was 2013. I think Home Free has improved over time.
also to note that the recording was a few years after, so their improvement is also quite amazing.
When I was a teenager, my teacher put me with the tenors (I am female, always have been). My sister was put with the Sopranos. Sister tried teaching a group of underprivileged kids Christmas Songs. She chose Winter Wonderland. They said it was too hard, so she had me (not a very good singer because I can't sustain notes) sing with her. I let her sing lead, since she was far better, and matched my notes (in my register) to hers as best I could, cutting off when I had to and letting her sustain the notes to cover for me (she was amazing at singing and came in second in our school for a musical scholarship for college). After we were done, I was so pleased. The kids, unfortunately, quit the lessons because they insisted they'd never sound "as good as" us. I cried at that and wished I had messed up. Sister was so dang frustrated because she had wanted to show them that a 'bad' singer could do very well if they tried. The kids didn't see it that way. Next to Sister, I really sucked, but I guess on my own, I was better than I thought, just no real breath control.
On the flip side, when I joined the Navy, I auditioned for the Navy Choir. The man doing the auditions also did the auditions for Disney. He asked what "voice" I was and I told him Tenor. He said there's never been such a thing as a female Tenor. (Funny thing, my mother can hit baritone notes.) So I told him I was Alto. He had me sing, a Capello and solo, the Star Spangle Banner (the most impossible song, I insist!). After I finished, he said "I can't take you for two reasons. You are the first and only female Tenor I've ever heard, and so one: I can't place you with the ladies, it would throw them off vocally. And two: I can't place you with the men, it would throw off the visual aspect of the choir." Then he informed me he does the auditions for Disney and asked me to come back once I'd left the Navy to audition for Disney and he'd work with me (he must've seen something I never saw in myself.) I never did go back, but I do treasure that assessment of my voice. :-) Since that audition in 1989 (yes, way back then), I have met at least three other female Tenors which were told they couldn't exist until the teacher or conductor or whomever heard them sing. My teacher wasn't as 'stupid' as I thought she was in school, huh?
you ABSOLUTELY need to check out Geoff Castellucci Blackbird | The Beatles | Bass Singer Cover. it's UNREAL how insane his range is.
wow! got here 10mins after!
I love that you decided to check both version (shame that you did not see the judges' comment)
And I agree, Tim is such a show off, since he knows he has the skills for it. (I do love his facial expressions and his sense of humor)
This is one of my fave of their performances in Sing Off. They featured the bass (Tim) a lot since they're country but Austin, Rob and even Adam get their chance to shine.
This is what I like about this group, everyone is talented and you know they love what they're doing.
They are really classy and sexy at the same time.
What a great reaction, I would love your reaction to (all about that bass) cover
You’ll have lots of fun
Your speaking voice is so pleasant I would marry you just to hear "Good morning" everyday ^^ The quality of your speaking voice is really amazing.
AVI KAPLAN "black is the colour" is a must. I cannot wait for her to see this one she's gonna get a shock
Great reaction. Very interesting. Love Avi Kaplan's solo work..what a tone he has in his voice!!
I just love your insights. They’re spot on, you catch things the first time, you love your work, and you have the best hair on CZcams!
I am so taken in by vocal coaches responding to songs that shook me.
Its It's interesting to me.
They break down songs the way that I break down flavors and recipes at restaurants that shake my soul.
As humans, why are we so attracted to extremes?
Not sure if you realized the key change, but the live version (first ever performance of Ring of Fire) was actually half a step lower in F#. Which means ... F#1 was the last note.
As good as this is, they keep getting better with each new release over the yrs! It's amazing!! All their arrangements are incredible!! Love these guys! Loved the analysis!! Thx!
Damn these guys are phenomenal!
Ms. Nikon, your reaction to that last note shall become a classic.😇😇😇🥰🥰🥰
They are ridiculously awesome in person!! If you ever get the chance take it.
I saw Home Free live in Melbourne last year, and yeah they're amazing live. Highly recommended.
I also saw Pentatonix live in Melbourne a few years earlier, back when Avi was still with them. Also a fantastic live show, also highly recommended.
I went in sydney- best show ive ever seen 😍
Love how you put commentary in text while you are clearly enjoying the performance. Again your production values are amazing. Please look for Tim Foust & Peter Hollens singing Misty Mountain. Great breakdown of the technical aspects of the performance that as a layman I heard but did not really understand. Keep up the good work.
Bass guitarist here. The look on her face at 1:58 is what every bass register musician lives to see lol.
4:26 is the best Reaction face i have seen to this date. It's the face of: I want to smile, laugh, exclaim surprise, and it comes out as one look. This group is amazing, PTZ is amazing, Voice Play is amazing, Citizen Queen is amazing. I think they have revived the A Capella for this Generation. Nice reactions to all. 10:57 was "This is my friend, what can your friend do?" LOL
A brand new cover of Folsom Prison Blues by Homefree just dropped and it rocks
You should react to Home free's "Elvira", and "How Great Thou Art".
I would also suggest Go Rest High on the Mountain!
Please do How Great Thou Art
Her expressions are awesome. So much personality this woman has
I say, Very well done. You showed the Major difference between a LIVE show and a Produced show. And, you watched a video, well, 2 videos I wanted you to. I say (my opinion here) that some of the differences between the 2 videos was experience. In the LIVE video, that created that song THEN. It was all new to them. (2013) The 1st video, the Produced one w/Avi, the had a years worth of experience AND people (production team) to help them. But, that is just my opinion. Thank you for showing BOTH of the videos. Very wise move if you ask me.
I don't know how low Tim went on the live version, but I am pretty confident that it was lower than on the video version. With the headphones I use, I had no problem hearing that final low note on the video version, but was barely able to pick it up on the live version...
Yep. Here’s another reaction to both where he double-checks that it’s a half-step lower.
czcams.com/video/yw_L6avVd2c/video.html
Loved your reaction and insights, as always.
Would really love to see you react to both Voctave (perhaps Mary Did You Know feat. Mark Lowry, the original composer, or their Disney Love Medley feat. Kirstin Maldonado and Jeremy Michael Lewis) and Voces8 (both Sound of Silence and Shenandoah are fab). These are both acapella groups, but are much more classical in style and sound (especially Voces8). They also have two of the most beautiful and sensitive sopranos I've ever heard, and are both wonderful rabbit holes of musical bliss to disappear down into.
I like the text in this video. You explained a lot more than man of constant sorrow. As a layman this video was way more accessible for me in terms of what jargon you were using and know just what the hell you meant. Love ur videos.
Thank you for a great reaction to both versions. I have listened to these many times, and I always learn something new when I listen to voice coach reactions
SInce you did a reaction of Home Free doing a cover of a Johnny Cash song you should do a reaction of Cash doing a cover of Nine Inch Nails hurt.
Warning have a tissue. This version of the song is a hard kick in the feels.
This is Cash's last video. Reznor praised Cash's interpretation of the song for its "sincerity and meaning", going so far as to say "that song isn't mine anymore."

That kills me every time I watch it 😪 such an amazing life and legacy and with both June and him in the video and then they both leave us, what a final goodbye it truly is for all his fans 💔
Agree with many of the others comments on here. Please try Mayday. It really does show how versatile they are. They a truly a great group of singers and of course Adam the human drum kit! Great review!
Austin had only been with the group for a few months when they performed this and they arranged it in one week. I wish you had listened to the judges' comments. It's obvious how impressed they were.
I don't know how often I've watched this reaction video, partly because I'm a sucker for home free, how much I love Julia's really amazing and transcendent reactions, "SWEET baby Jesus!" is a fav, and because if validates me as a bass singer.
Tim Foust does a cover of "Can't Help Falling in Love" where he shows off his higher register as well as his lower.
for wonderful home free harmonies: "how great thou art" and "helpless hoping" and edited to add "auld lang syne" has great harmonies as well.
Very lucky to be going to see these guys in April in Charleston sc. Been huge fans since I found out about them several years ago .Gave me my music fix during c19. Had to shut down our venue for a while and we were really missing it.
So glad you included the Sing Off version! I was hooked on that show and their performance was one of my favs.
I'd like to see what you think of one of their originals. My favorite form their latest album is Catch Me if You Can. I don't sing well any more, and have lost an lot over the years. It's nice to listen/watch your videos. Some of the coaching I had comes back. Thank you! ^_^
Home Free is amazing and everyone loves Tim's deep voice, but if you want to see something special check out their version of Mayday. You'll get to see Tim do his high notes and it's weirdly great.
I sincerely appreciate and enjoy your breakdowns of the arrangements! It's really interesting to know the mechanics behind those "Oooo that was cool" moments. Thank you for posting!
I need videos of you singing some awesome songs! GOD DAMMIT, I felt that voice!
JULIA !!! PLEASE PLEASE react to their cover of How Great thou Art....none of the Vocal Coach Reactors have done this, I cant wait to see what one of you guys think of it.....by the way the live version was actually 1st then they did the studio recording
I think you should checkout Home Free cover of End of the Road Boyz II Men cover. I think I like Home Free's version better and I LOVE Boyz II Men!!!
Foh no it's not if you think that you cleary don't know music
Foh no it's not you cleary don't know music if you think that
I've seen them live and I enjoy your reaction to them. They never cease to amaze me and neither do you.
I AM SO HAPPY YOU WATCHED THEM!!!!!!!!!!!!!! DO MORE AND DO VOICEPLAY! IM WAY TOO DAMN EXCITED I LOVE THIS STUFF!!!
Hopefully you check out their Sing Off with Filharmonic from this show, I think it would blow you away! Great reaction, this was fun!
Second this, love that performance!
Julia's reaction to Tim's lowest note in the studio version is by far the best that I have seen out of all of these reactions, she loved it lol
Love, love, love your reaction videos!
Beautiful reaction. Always a pleasure to hear you react to awesome singing and music.
Thank you.
Would love to see you listen to misty mountains by Peter hollens and Tim foust afternyour reaction to his deep ending note in this song lol trust me you'll live it from a fellow Aussie girl here 🙂
More home free 😁 They has just released a new song on youtube: Folsom prison blues. 😉👍
Or then new goup: Voiceplay - Oogie boogie`s song 😉
I love your reviews - they are so on point without ever being over-bearing - which takes real skill. I find your insights and commentary every bit as interesting as the vocal performance - so very, very well done Julia!
I think it is great that you did a reaction to both versions, Julia! I enjoy how in depth your written comments go without breaking the flow of the first time reaction to the songs! Also your example of how they did the arrangement of the harmonies was great. Not to mention that it sounded amazing! Would not mind hearing more singing examples!
The difference in placement/twang between Avi and Tim could be, at least partly, because Avi is from California and Tim is from Texas?
Avi can "twang" out as he has demonstrated in solo songs himself but even that doesn't really change the difference in timbre between the 2. His worst (in my opinion I dislike the style of music he is emulating here that I associate with Appalachia not sure of the correct name) is "When I Die". How the twang is used appears to be a singer's choice in any given song interpretation.
11:10
"That's that you can leave your number with my secretary look."
Dayum girl, you aren't supposed to tell the truth like that!
Uhg 3:30am here in Texas. Very nice reaction! I liked the breakdown and comparison of the live and studio.
That was more than awesome depth. I've always envied a bass voice like that. Watching your reaction to that power is fun too. Your voice is enjoyable too. I like your chord, blending those parts.
Dear Julia, similar to Dimash having a range of over 6 octaves & possibly as much as 7 Tim has a range of 5 octaves.
It doesn't count if you're including vocal fry and a whistle register. Those are not part of the connected range. Dimash fans don't seem to want to listen to that. As much fun as it is claiming gigantic numbers like six or seven, it's probably more of a range of four or five octaves, which is already massive and impressive! Quite extraordinary, really.
@@Rosannasfriend So where were you trained on how to count an octave range because I have heard experts state that he has more than a 6 octave range. Or maybe you need to tell every vocal expert that you are the person they all need to learn from because you are the number 1 professional. Maybe you need to start printing Diplomas to hand out to voice professionals after you teach them everything they need to know and come up with a fee amount to charge them to learn from you!!!
Yeah, speaking as a Sohyang fan (also a Dimash fan, but not quite as much), that's pretty much why Dimash has the reputation he does, they don't include vocal fry and whistle register, his connected range spans 6+ octaves, which I believe begins around C2 and ends somewhere above C8. His whistle register is a whole other thing. He's an alien. Pretty sure.
@@satomiwa Thank you so much. Their favorites can't do that kind of thing so they feel the need to attack Dimash to feel better about things. 👱♀️👗👠👠💓
Thanks for showing both terrific versions.
I subscribe to a few other vocal coaches/teachers but I find I'm learning more from your channel due to your wording and demonstrations. Thank you and keep up the great work. Stay safe !!
I love how you give definitions and additional info on screen while you're reacting. It really helps us lay people understand what you're talking about.
Great breakdown of the two videos! Love your enthusiasm and energy. I hope to see you doing more reactions to both their videos and those of Pentatonix. I am definitely going right now to check out the list of videos you have reviewed. :-)
I liked your comparison of the two versions. They’re both great. I like the way you put notes above the video. It’s an informative way of passing your thoughts without so many pauses for copyright restrictions. I just went ahead and subscribed. I really enjoy when vocal coaches react to acapella groups. You can point out so many subtle things that an untrained ear enjoys, but doesn’t pick out.
I love watching Julia "fangirl" over the bass singers, her face is such a picture, beautiful still, but a picture 😄😄
Hi Julia! I just discovered your reaction videos and channel over the past couple of days, and I just want to tell you that you have immediately become one of my favorite reactors. (And of course I subscribed.) I absolutely love the way that you blend your verbal comments, your printed comments on screen, your knowledgeable musical observations that don't at all come across as haughty or with a "look how smart I am" vibe, your appreciation of the incredible music you're listening to, your delightful and appealing personality, and simply how fun you are. :) It also helps that you're reacting to some of my favorite groups like Home Free and Pentatonix. Thank you so much, and please keep 'em coming!
