    This is stunningly beautiful. Let’s recognize Adam and Chance for holding down the groove. My favorite version of this song.

    I agree that this version is magnificent. I really loved their choice to isolate the "I am". Austin finished the preceding word 'great' with a hard 't', and there was a beat of complete silence, then they the obvious climax with 'I am' , then another beat of silence. Dynamically this was the peak of the song, and for me the rests before and after those two little words added greater emphasis to the unity of the Father and the Son. It was an unexpected but extremely effective choice.

    Home Free has really stepped up their game in the last two years.
    Home Free is tops at arranging songs to fit them.

    Great review. Your facial expressions mirrored my feelings when I listened to this. For comparison, a few days ago I listened to the Pentatonix version and while very good, it gave me a greater appreciation for what HF does. PX has two voices so similar if you aren't looking, you can't tell who is singing and their tones are clear, almost crystal cold. With HF, every voice is distinctive and when you put them together they blend with such warmth it goes to another level.

    • @usmadgirl3074
      @usmadgirl3074 Před 2 lety +11

      AMEN, again! I absolutely agree & I'm sorry but the PTX version hurts my sensitive ears!

    Chance held down the bass in this one! 🔥 Adam 🤯

  • @joecarpenter8779
    @joecarpenter8779 Před 2 lety +8

    Aside from being an amazing rendition of this song, it always astounds me that a 5-man group has the ability to sound like a 20-strong choir with instruments. They have taken the world of a capella to a new level. I also love your honest, knowledgeable and appropriately lighthearted reactions.

  • @tinasmallwood9546
    @tinasmallwood9546 Před 2 lety +19

    Rupp is amazing. Truly genius in using his voice for the awesome and sometimes unbelievable sound effects. The group wouldn't be who they are without him.

  • @louisetemples7011
    @louisetemples7011 Před 2 lety +41

    Yes! Yes! Yes! ABSOLUTE PERFECTION! THEY DID THE DOG GONE THING! PHENOMENAL
    PERFORMANCE!
    Thank you so much, I've been looking forward to your reaction to this BEAUTIFUL song and you are amazing as always!

    @miamidolphinsfan Před 2 lety +38

    I think this is going on Mike's Christmas playlist !! It is such a great arrangement. They also emphazised I AM differently than almost ever other artist. That is called putting your mark on this one ! By the way he never got to solo but a lot of that bass was coming from the underrated & underappreciated Mr Adam Chance. He's gotten to be even a better bass since he's joined Home Free...I don't know for sure but maybe Tim has been working with him ??? anyways another "FIRE" reaction. and please do react to their collab with Texas Hill. It's awesome too. I don't know if it'll take you to church, but it'll get you dancing in the chair !

  • @tomhansen4576
    @tomhansen4576 Před 2 lety +13

    The difference of HF's version vs. all other versions before it is that it is distinctive by the arrangement they did. HF always stretches their performance by going outside the box and are not afraid to try different artistic approaches. For me they are fearless because they know they have the talent to achieve excellence in anything they do.

  • @cheridampier2524
    @cheridampier2524 Před 2 lety +12

    Home Free just does their thang and love it. The emphasis on I Am just fills my heart and soul. Adam's crazy percussion is perfect and just what we wanted even if we didn't know it

  • @bryanmclarty5140
    @bryanmclarty5140 Před 2 lety +30

    Simply stunning. Yep, no need to compare and be critical of this or any other a cappella group! They’re all going to be good IN THEIR OWN WAY. Love your channel, Drama! Keep smiling!

  • @par500dragon7
    @par500dragon7 Před 2 lety +7

    I just love watching your face when you're really appreciating something! This really is a gorgeous version. I didn't think anyone could come close to the PTX version, but now I love them both. I'd love to see you react to Geoff Castellucci's new release of God Rest Ye Merry Gentlemen!

  • @fuller6544
    @fuller6544 Před 2 lety +2

    This song and version is beyond molten hot. The arrangement and singing are pure and impressive. They toss out a wall of sound like no other but it does not run you over. And Adam...in my opinion...his best blend and beat to date. The old school R/B vibe is just awesome. Well done syd....

  • @WoobieHugs
    @WoobieHugs Před 2 lety +20

    I'm SO glad you reacted to this "demanded" song by da Fries! :) It's also my favorite Christmas song. Home Free totally blew everything out of the water, from Adam's amazing beatboxing, and Chance's (Oh my goodness!!!) phenomenal bass, to the trio of soul-searing leads... I tear up most every time I hear this song, and tonight was no different.
    I love your reactions - you are awesome! Thank you for doing so many HF reactions for as long as you have! When a new HF video drops, I tool around CZcams (for days, sometimes) looking for your reaction. :)

  • @davetimmer5149
    @davetimmer5149 Před 2 lety +13

    It takes a special group individuals to remain in the group for so long. They all are special, special... Usually taking a back seat to the others will start eating away and lead to a breakup. But not these guys, Adam does a solid back ground in this...loved it!

  • @teresamontgomery9060
    @teresamontgomery9060 Před 2 lety +16

  • @kaycampbell8532
    @kaycampbell8532 Před 2 lety +2

    I agree that we don't have to pick one group over the other but for me Home Free is it. The beautiful lyrics of this song are sung so reverently in perfect harmony. My favorite for sure.

  • @joburrow9863

  • @marylee7467
    @marylee7467 Před 2 lety +17

    Totally agree about the different groups. Each with their own take.
    Adam definitely added a different level and owned it. Tim's facial expressions mimic his words which I love. This is definitely on my Christmas playlist. Keep on with those shameless plugs. Peace & love

  • @floprather4262
    @floprather4262 Před 2 lety +17

    Yes, Adam is doing his thing with the beatboxing. Home Free vocals as always are outstanding along with the harmonies. Check out Home Free featuring Texas Hill--Go Tell It On the Mountain. It too is a version different then others have sang over the years. Great reaction.

  • @staceysmith8173
    @staceysmith8173 Před 2 lety +7

    You are too funny. Love your reactions. If you want to stop and go back then, by all means, go ahead and do it. All the groups did a fantastic job of this song. I dont compare any of the groups when they do the same song. Look at all the great music we get to enjoy

  • @rebeccas4899
    @rebeccas4899 Před 2 lety +13

  • @chrismorin1318
    @chrismorin1318 Před 2 lety +18

    Glad to see you back in fine form! I've often wondered if people send Adam clips of off the wall sounds and dare him to replicate the sound and put it in a song somehow! This group of men took a fairly traditional Christmas song and took it to another level where all is shiny and new again. Yet they didn't lose the essence of the original. Thanks for another wonderful reaction! ❤

  • @usmadgirl3074
    @usmadgirl3074 Před 2 lety +12

    I've been checking daily to see if you'd reacted to this! I always love your reactions, but this was even more exciting! 😍 If this were just Rob, Tim & Austin doing their beautiful parts🎶, this would be gorgeous😇, but with Chance doing bass & whatever else he was doing & Adam making sounds that aren't human, it's absolutely beyond incredible & for me, it blows the other versions out of the water! I've watched this probably 50 times watching all the shocked reactions to it since it came out & I could watch it 50 more! It's now my favorite Christmas song! 😇🎶🎄😊

  • @erikawichman5655
    @erikawichman5655 Před 2 lety +2

    Adam Chance did those really deep bass notes. YES! FIRE!!

  • @glennspreeman1634
    @glennspreeman1634 Před 2 lety +1

    Mark Lowry and Voctave are awesome. Right about not who's best but who contributes. Chance's bass brings such support to the richness of this sound!

  • @JustMe-vk4fn
    @JustMe-vk4fn Před 2 lety +5

    Home Free, Pentatonix and VoicePlay are three acapella groups that *never* disappoint and *always* give you more than you expected. Thanks to the person who suggested this.

  • @hellefur6631
    @hellefur6631 Před 2 lety +1

    Credit to Chance, for his stellar bass line. Impeckable.
    Credit to Tim, Rob and Austin, for theire vocals. Outstanding.
    Credit to Adam, his percussion is allways on point, not to much, not to little. Out off this world perfection.

  • @belinda9696
    @belinda9696 Před 2 lety +12

    LAVA!!! Oh DramaSydE, this was incredible! Your sound system is so good that I heard some more sounds that I didn’t hear with other reactors. Adam was AMAZING! I heard towards the end his little weird twang or something with the amazing drums and Chance’s growls…holy cow especially near the end with “I am”. But then near the beginning I heard his drums with what sounded like a guitar noise…I don’t even know…sheesh…it was amazing. And those harmonies….LOVE THIS!!! Great reaction Drama!

Tim, Austin, Robb you blew me away! And Chance, you were your great self! I agree with you...FIRE! PRAISE GOD! JESUS IS LORD! THIS SONG HAS FINALLY PUT ME IN THE CHRISTMAS SPIRIT WHICH I HAVE SORELY BEEN LACKING! HOMEFREE, YOU HAVE JUST DONE THE BEST VERSION OF THIS SONG THAT I HAVE HEARD. THANK YOU GUYS AND THANK YOU DRAMASYDE!!!

  • @richcunningham5467
    @richcunningham5467 Před 2 lety +5

    DSyde - you hit the nail on the head with this one - truly remarkable beat boxing by Mr Rupp which transported the song into the atmosphere...actually to the Moon!! The arrangement is (imho) Darren Rust's greatest achievement to date. The rich harmonies as only HF can blend like M-A-G-I-C... Just a masterpiece of musicality!
    Dude!!!! Don't people know it's a freakin' reaction channel? I look forward to your reactions every time... I've seen the vids already and what I want is YOUR reaction - no matter how many times you pause...You're also a funny guy which makes your channel a must see - and you also have a serious side about your reactions as well - F-A-C-T!!
    Keep up the great work my friend...
    Merry Christmas!

    I have been following your channel for several years. I remember you saying Christmas wasn't your favorite... a long time ago. The reactions on your face said so much. So meaningful to me. I loved Home Free's version. I felt every word and meaning.

  • @epiphany519
    @epiphany519 Před 2 lety +21

    Different doesn't mean bad. It just means different. Tempo, genre, range, all of it changes the nuances of the song without changing the song. The lyrics are the lyrics but how they're delivered differs between the Voctave, Pentatonix, and Home Free versions (the three I'm aware of). All of them are what I would consider 'exceptional' in their own way. Great reaction as always Michael. Take care all.

    • @WoobieHugs

    @rowaineboyd1536 Před 2 lety

    There's no need to pick and choose. Every group has their specialties! This will always be my favorite version simply because of the tonal qualities balancing so well with each other - Tim and Austin blend beautifully, and Rob and Chance are silky smooth together. Adam doing his thing, keeping everything together... Certain types of voices hurt my eardrums, but HF's mix is perfect. For me, since every person has their own quirks and preferences. Absolutely loved how each progressive harmony had your eyes wide, especially the crescendo into 'the great I Am'! Thank you again, good sir, for allowing us to join you down the rabbit hole. Much love to you and yours!

    I’ve got a new favorite version of this song now. This just bumped Peter hollens down to number 2. He sings it in a church harmonizing with himself. Third would be penta whatever their name is.
