    Home Free is seriously some of the most talented musicians out there. Between creativity and upgrading covers, arrangements, their one of a kind sound together and their incredible voices alone, they have literally changed the face of music for me and I'm 50 years old. They make me remember true talent is still out there, without gimmicks and publicity stunts. Just pure fantastic music and kind hearted people with a passion for the art of music. Thanks for another wonderful reaction.

    I'm sure John Denver was smiling down from heaven the day this was released into the universe.

    I heard John Denver sing this at the London Palladium many years ago. It was a magical moment in my life that I have never forgotten. I didn’t believe anyone could come close to the emotion in John Denver’s voice,that night. But Home Free have done exactly that. I am so proud to be an Home Fry.
    Thank you for your heartfelt reaction.

    I grew up listening to John Denver's songs. But I feel Home Free took this one to another level for me. It is one of my favorite covers of this song. I love everything about it.

    Lots of them tear up. I was a fan of John Denver back in the day but this version is amazing.

    I live in West Virginia and heard this song over a million times by a million different artists. John Denver is still my favorite, but these guys are really good.

    Knowing John's heart and lucky enough to be able to see him several times in concert front row, he would have loved them and been proud of their rendition.

    Your face says it all. Adam Rupp does play drums, and I've heard other drum playing reactors say that he puts in all the little extra percussion sounds that happen that only a drummer would notice and it all sounds like the real thing.

  • @grievousangel7742
    @grievousangel7742 3 роки тому +15

    So nice to hear a fellow northerner morphing into a Home Fry! There are so many songs out there that they covered and made their own. The rabbit hole is deep and marvellous. This one isn't one I hear very often, so it's lovely to be able to listen to it and, like always with HF, hear all the new stuff they put into it. They are ridiculously talented and no matter what kind of song they're giving us - from the silly like the Butts Medley, to something like one of their most recent, 'Bless the Broken Road', they are always jaw-dropping.

    So a lot of times when people film and want to look like they are in West Virginia, they fail miserably for those of us familiar with the area. In this video, I certainly don’t know they are in West Virginia filming, but it’s definitely believable and that makes me happy lol

  • @cenewton3221
    @cenewton3221 2 роки тому +1

    As I understand it, Home Free worked on their arrangement of this song for like 3 years. Part of the issue probably was the transition from Chris Rupp leaving the group to Adam Chance joining it. They released it about a year after that change so .. yeah. Obviously it was a very complex song to do right. They did it right.

  • @miamidolphinsfan
    @miamidolphinsfan 3 роки тому +19

    Hey brother hope your Saturday was a great one. I love this arrangement and they worked on it for more than 5 years until they thought it was where they wanted it to be. Rob carried this and he was the perfect one to do it. I loved that they turned a pop song into a bluesy ballad....and they have the talent to pull it off !!! All of them are so talented !! Definitely should check out their next to last, but not the one they dropped yesterday....I'm asking all the British reactors to not listen, they might get upset...however its a song I sang all of my childhood at school.

  • @CarlaDelk
    @CarlaDelk 3 роки тому +9

    Great reaction! Home Free's talent is phenomenal. This song took me back to my childhood. Loved it then, but Home Free's version tugs at my hearts strings with their angelic voices and Rupp's percussion. Thank you for your reaction!

  • @barbarakennedy2667
    @barbarakennedy2667 2 роки тому

  • @teresacartwright5406
    @teresacartwright5406 2 роки тому

    Apart from his amazing beatboxing, what I love most about Adam Rupp is his restraint. His beatboxes (is that a word?) are never overmuch, never for the sake of showing off (although he easily could). The sounds he uses are always just perfect for the song. You're right - he must have swallowed a sound effects machine as a child.

    @lindanearing4710 2 роки тому

    Home Free takes a song and sprinkles it's magic on it, makes it their own and absolutely flippin' crushes it. Well done Home Free, yet again. There isn't a single crack in their armor. Each talent is stellar and you put them together they are unparalled.

    I love them. I believe they are either angels, aliens, or magic because I don't know how they do what they do beatboxing, singing, humming, whistling, or what have you, as well as they do it, but it's always amazing.

Would you please react to the latest release from yesterday "MY COUNTRY TIS OF THEE" and the latest release from their high tenor Austin Brown with the Eric Clapton classic " TEARS IN HEAVEN "? You really MUST check it out because it is SO VERY BEAUTIFUL! Also if you haven't yet would you please react to " BLESS THE BROKEN ROAD" Rascal Flats cover? It is a new release from Home Free from a few days ago. Thank you very much, I love your reactions because you are willing to show your emotions with us and that is what music is all about! Sharing the message of the song and what the music brings to the heart of the one that hears it! The connection between the artist and the listener, so I appreciate your transparency and authenticity! God Bless You and stay safe!❤️😃🍟

    This WV gal has loved this song since I was old enough to understand music. While I love John Denver, Home Frees version is my all time favorite. I have so much appreciation and respect for this group and their talent. They performed it live for the first time at their concert is Morgantown and the crowd went insane. So many people have a stereotype of WV that couldn’t be further from the truth. While the video was not filmed here, it definitely looks like it could be because that is how beautiful WV truly is 💙💛

    Such a good song! Home Free worked on this for a few years knowing it’s a classic song they wanted to get the arrangement just right. I think they did it justice! Like you said they are so good. You should really listen to Helplessly Hoping to hear them sing without beatboxing. It’s so good, the harmonies are amazing. It’s not a country song but you’ll love it. You can watch Adam Rupp Drum Solo to see the beatboxer do a whole drum solo with his mouth. Also recommend One Man Band, My Country Tis of Thee and Bless the Broken Road to hear more great harmonies from them. Love your reaction!

  • @freadadillon4071
    @freadadillon4071 3 роки тому

    First let me say, I am surprised to find so many Brits who are totally invested in basically Southern USA music. I enjoyed your reaction to Home Free doing American Pie, but that was an anthem that seemed to resonate, for some reason, with many people around the world. But John Denver singing about West Virginia? I had not idea Southern/Country music from USA was so widely loved. Your reaction was lovely. You obviously appreciate our Home Free boys. They are not only hugely talented each in their own right, and gifted at harmonics, but genuinely kind, sweet, and humble young men. So happy Brits love them. Great reaction.

    I've seen many Home Free videos where the person reacting has the same look on their faces as you had, wondering how can this be real. How can Home Free touch someone soo deeply to invoke such emotions. I often wonder if they themselves are not immune to the same reactions of other artists.

    Nothing is more apparent as you being blown-away by these guys!!! And Rightfully so! ... I've been listening and following their stuff (nearly exclusively) for the last 6yrs ....... and they never EVER cease to amaze me. I even went and seen them LIVE ... nothing will ever top that Musically! that's for sure. It's an experience! This one is special for me -- John Denver's original you could say is "The" State Anthem for West Virginia! (it's my home! proudly at that)... what these guys have done with this; and I'll admit, I was a bit skeptical at 1st ---- is nothing short of absolutely AMAZING!!! I too am blown away by it.... Damn so good.

    Hey, you now have to check out America's traditional national anthem.. words written in 1831.
    The Star Spangled Banner became our anthem a century later but.. Home Free's rendition of
    My Country 'Tis of Thee
    will shock you because .. you already know this song !! (I guarantee it !)
    NOT a country song but you must find room for it on your channel :D
