    Home Free’s rendition of How Great Thou Art is possibly the most moving piece of music I’ve ever heard. The arrangement is fantastic.

  • @elliedogify
    @elliedogify 2 місяці тому +50

    Christmas is coming. You will be absolutely amazed at their arrangement of "Do You Hear What I Hear". Stunning!

    This is one of the most popular Home Free songs. It was the first song I ever heard from Home Free & I was instantly hooked. It really showcases the talent of these 5 men (their tight harmonies, Tim Foust's bass & Adam Rupp's incredible beatboxing). They are my favorite a cappella group. This song is very old (about 100 yrs.) & is done in the bluegrass country style. It was used in the movie "Oh Brother Where Art Thou" starring George Clooney.

    "Home Free - Folsom Prison Blues" is my favorite. Misty Mountains - Peter Hollens feat. Tim Foust is mind blowing how low Tim can go!!!

    You are the first reactor that I have seen who noticed that some of the members of the group had serious musical training.
    To prove it you need to watch the video where two of them sing Nessun Dorma.
    Look for "Two COUNTRY Singers try singing OPERA - "Nessun Dorma" ".

    • @larrywright3132
      @larrywright3132 2 місяці тому +1

      I believe all members of Home Free have musical degrees of some sort or another. Ron Lundquist, the heavier on with the beard, was classically trained and can sing opera, Austin Brown, the other tenor, wearing the hat, was trained in musical theater but sings opera with Rob, but I’m not sure about the other three except to know they all have music degrees.

  • @stephen8639
    @stephen8639 2 місяці тому +2

    The two main singers both have musical degrees Rob on the left with glasses did his in opera performance a very good tenor before changing after graduating to country and acapella Austin did his in stage musicals with some opera sections included to help with the voice. Austin has recently left the group after more than a decade he's recently married and wants to reduce the touring and being away from home.

    A few facts about Home Free. They are primarily known as a country a capella band, but they also do rock, pop, and gospel. Tim Foust, the bassist, also taught Geoff Castellucci how to reach low bass notes (Tim reaches a E1 on Ring Of Fire and a B0 on Boondocks). A vocal masterpiece by Home Free is Helplessly Hoping where there is no beatboxing, only 5 vocal parts, it's incredible. Great reaction and when you imitated the "nomonica" player, it sounds like you play a pretty mean "nomonica" yourself. 👍😂🤙✌️

  • @greggwilliamson
    @greggwilliamson 2 місяці тому +12

    "Folsom Prison Blues", & "Champagne Taste on a Beer Budget"

  • @pnwcruiser
    @pnwcruiser 2 місяці тому +5

    Home Free is my favorite a cappella group but Pentatonix is also extraordinary. Suggest their rendition of "Hallelujah", and for Christmas "Mary Did You Know". Both groups won their respective seasons of "The Sing Off" competition and they are good friends.

  • @babyfry4775
    @babyfry4775 2 місяці тому +4

    All are so talented. Tim, the bass, has a 5 octave range. He can sing lower than here and up with the tenors. Rob (glasses) was trained in opera and has a wonderful voice. Austin (high tenor here) can yodel and has lots of runs/riffs to his voice. Chance (back left) was doing the mouth harp sound and has a great voice. Adam (beatboxer) is super talented. Three of them write music as well. Helplessly Hoping, I Can’t Outrun You, Yours, Thanksgiving Song. So many good songs. Good one Emma!

    • @BrianBogiaBricky
      @BrianBogiaBricky 2 місяці тому

    "O Brother, Where Art Thou?" (2000) starring George Clooney, John Turturro, Tim Blake Nelson, John Goodman, Holly Hunter, and Charles Durning (all established names in film) and also starring bluegrass music, such as "Man of Constant Sorrow". In the 1930's 3 escaped convicts have adventures and misadventures as they travel in pursuit of freedom and fortune. Nominated for many awards and with a 4.6 rating from Audience reviews. Very good for your channel or for your home viewing.

    This is the first HF song that I listened to. They had me from the start. Try their cover of "Bless the Broken Road", "In the Blood", and "How Great Thou Art". Finish them and we will feed some more to you. You might also try Voiceplay singing their Disney movie tune, "Under the Sea". Good reaction.

  • @genny5309
    @genny5309 2 місяці тому +6

    You have some good suggestions here.
    If you haven’t heard “End of the Road,” I’d suggest that to hear them cover an R&B classic.
    Other favorites, in no particular order, and not a complete list:
    Blue Ain’t Your Color
    Sea Shanty Medley
    My Church
    Listen to the Music
    All About that Bass (they were much younger!)
    The Butts Remix (sooo funny)
    How Great Thou Art
    With Christmas coming up, Do You Hear What I Hear? and several others
    After you’ve watched 5-10 of their videos, watch their cover of Mayday - and prepare to be astounded by their talent all over again.
    Welcome to the Home Fries!

    In the beginning (most people don't hear or don't realize) there is an underlying bass line that goes.... Boooooooom... BaBoommmm quite a few times..... that is done by the bass singer... sounds like a real instrument but it's his voice.

    All of the sounds are made by Adam Rupp who is their beat boxer. One of the best in the world. You need to watch their video of their song "Butt's Medley " and Austin singing the song "When a man loves a woman"!! They are both incredible in their own ways!!!!!

    • @genny5309
      @genny5309 2 місяці тому +1

      And the one producing it isn’t the beatboxer, but instead Adam Chance (back row, left) - the last face you see in the video. While I love the video, I wish they’d featured him making the sound earlier in the video.

    • @maggedo-x1s
      @maggedo-x1s 2 місяці тому +2

    You'll have no problem building the new channel by reactions to Home Free. Loyal fans will provide lots of views. Read through other comments & saw many good recommendations. I'll add 2 more. 'Butts Medley' is truly unique & good for laughs. If you look at Pentatonix, their 'Sound of Silence' cover is awe-inspiring. It's hard to follow Simon & Garfunkel, but they did it right! Best wishes.

    @Biomirth 2 місяці тому +2

    This is sorta off-topic: I really enjoy when your eyes 'smile'. I think the way you express yourself shows a complete engagement with the emotional as well as analytical sides; AKA 'authenticity'. It's kinda contagious, your smile. Also Home Free are a good one to hear a few more from as they don't release half-measures.

  • @dalepettiner5036
    @dalepettiner5036 2 місяці тому +1

    With Christmas season coming, you need to see/hear them doing "Do You Hear What I Hear". And now that you have your foot firmly planted in the rabbit hole, do a lot more Home Free. Tim (bass) actually has a 5 octave range that does get shown off throughout the HF catalogue.

    The capability of excellence by each of the individuals in this group is off the charts awesome that allows them the flexibility to do so many types of vocalizations and to do it exceptionally well. I have not found a genre they are afraid to tackle whether individually or as a group they are amazing. Then top that off with their arrangements that augment the presentation to be "Home Free" owned.
    They simply had way too much fun producing this song and video presentation. Their entertainment value is top dollar with everything they do. Their customer base receives the best from them every time. Very creative juices and exceptional produced music that keeps our hearts thumping along with smiles and feel good feelings. ❣

    There are SO many good versions of this song besides the ones that occur on screen. I know you are a vocalist, HOWEVER, there is a fellar who does an acoustic guitar instrumental of MoCS that is FABULOUS. Martin Tallstrom. Even if you don't feel that it's right for your singing channel, I do believe you would enjoy listening to it.
