Love the reaction to this great Home Free cover of a classic (all of JD's are, but that'snfor another venue). Thank you for your service from a vet family!
Of all the Home Free membersAdam Chance grew up In a rural area!! It’s so funny that in hillbilly bone Chance is the one portraying the city guy coming to the country!! Fun cover of John Denver song! When The fire flared up The guys weren’t expecting it! Home Fremont is great addition to the map! Nice Reaction!
My Dad grew up in rural Tennessee, went in to the Navy...then moved to Brooklyn after marrying my Mom. We would go back each year with him to visit family. I fell in love at a young age with the mountains, fresh air, running barefoot in the rain. This song reminds me of my Dad so much. He held on to his southern speech patterns til he passed away few years ago. I think he recharged each visit. Needless to say I have some twisted accent and phrasing with a southern Dad and a Mom with a very strong Brooklyn accent. Thanks for the reaction and memories.
I can relate. My mom was from SE TN she came o Cincinnati, met my dad who's from KY. Every year, we'd go to visit my mom's family. The further south we got, the more southern she'd talk. We were known as the yankee cousins.
@@M11969 I grew up in Cincy. My adopted parents were from WV. One of my step-sisters still lives in KY, one in OH, one in FL, one in Montana. But my parents & grand-parents are all gone. We always took the 7 hour drive from Cincy to WV to see Mom's parents & her sisters & brother. Big family reunions. My parents surprisingly didn't have the strong hillbilly accent that the rest of the WV family members had, I don't know how lol. When we visited there, they still didn't pick up the twang, so I guess somehow OH was like an accent shield for us lol. Yeah I know some people will say that people from OH have an accent, just not usually a hillbilly or strong country one! ;) lol
I grew up on a ranch in Texas listening to this song. Their video was so perfect. I joined the Navy at 17 just to get away from the life. Then spent the rest of my life trying to get back to it. Love your reactions! Keep up the great work. Oh, and thank you for your service as well!
Small town gal here too. We had one stop light, one fast food restaurant, I don't see the big deal over Starbucks either. I joke that we're a "geographical oddity" to quote O'Brother. We're 30 mins from the next town in any direction and an hour from any city in any direction. Now we've grown since then and we have 3 stop lights now and 2 fast food restaurants, but I'll never live in the city myself. I love that they put yodeling in this version.
Hey there! Thanks for reacting to this one 😊 I’ve always loved John Denver and used to play his music on my guitar. Home Free did an awesome job with this song❣️ I love the yodeling in it❣️ Thanks for sharing some of your story with us 🙏 I love the country as well😍
Definitely what you're used to lmao! Cousins would visit and kept asking how I slept with all the noise - traffic, planes, helicopters, parties, loud music etc I never noticed them. Me in the country? Owls, possum hisses, crickets, frogs - I'd hear them all lol
Love this and check out Geoff Castellucci's cover of this also. This was one of our favorites in the summer of '71 the year I met my husband. I was 17 years old.
I am so happy right now seeing you did this one!!! I believe I've asked for it a time or 2... I love your reactions & chill personality. And YES I'm gonna Thank you for serving! I'm from extensive military family, on both sides. It's not for the weak. 🥰
I know, right?! I dont see how anybody would rather live in a city, lol... I couldnt take all that noise either! I like my space...just too many people. No grass or hayfields either?! No field parties in the city! Nope! Love the way they did this song and the video...made the song fun again. And btw... I've never been to Starbucks! We've got 2 close by but I just don't have any use for it, lol! Nice reaction. Loved hearing some stuff about where you grew up and all. See you next time!
I liked the little story in the video too going to the big city and finding it wasn't for him. I mean Tim was crying because he missed him, he had to return right?
Trivet, Austin is from Tifton Georgia Tim is from Nederland Texas and Chance is from Mobile Alabama. Check out videos of Austin and Chance from the vault
Loved Austen's "Home Away From Home" video where he visited his family farm in Tifton, GA. This video looks like it may have been filmed there, what with the riding mower Austen was in here, and in he was on a mower in the HAFH video.
I know Adam (and Chris) and Rob are from Minnesota, but to me Rob could be from Kentucky, VA, WV (but not deep in the holler) with the way he sings... he just sounds country to me lol. Tim, Austin & Chance all definitely sound like country boys, to be expected of course with their home states ;)
I grew in a very small town as did my Dad. He grew up in a small NH town. He learned many different instruments when he was growing up. I don't know if he learned any of them in school or not. His father's side of the family was musical. My Dad could play fiddle/violin, bass violin, banjo, and acoustic guitar if I'm not mistaken. He never had time to play any instruments after growing up and working to support a family. The younger of my two daughters plays electric guitar, trumpet, and has my Dad's fiddle
Sigh....over here in the UK we 'learned' how to play music on those dratted recorders too. You learning the fiddle at such a young age...much better experience and lot more fun I bet! Love the whole kaboodle: the song, the vid, the reaction, the story telling...thanks.. 💐💐
Love this home free version of this song! Funny that they let the horses out😄 Small town girl myself, 1 stoplight, 1 grocery store, (3 bars), horses being ridden down Main Street, 45 minutes to next town. I also remember hanging out clothes and running out to get them if it started to rain. Thanks for reacting to this song, love your reactions and yes, thank you for your service. I don’t get tired of hearing it myself, it is a nice thing that people acknowledge that you served and are grateful.😀
You only need one grocery store, no one wants to spend long there. But you gotta have at least 3 bars to fit everyone in on Fri & Sat nights.... then you need a big church come Sun for all of the "Never again, dear Lord!" prayers that will happen after the weekend fun lol
Since you are a Vet, I think you will love Home Free singing God Bless the USA sung with Lee Greenwood and The United States Air Force Band. Amazing. They have 2 versions, make sure you get the one with Lee and the Air Force Band.
Enjoyed the reaction! This sub agrees with you, I was raised in a very small town in California, well small for this state - 2000 people in the town and farming all around. Town is way too noisy now, but live in a senior park and they roll up the streets early. I remember when Kmart came to the big city about half hour drive away. Walmart was very slow to get here. 🤠🤠
LOL ... I grew up 10 miles from the closest town. I used to say the population was 400 counting cats, dogs and chickens .... Years later, I was showing someone on a map where I grew up and happened to look at the Legend at the bottom. I busted out laughing, because it said the population was now 400 ... Guess they started counting the dogs, cats and chickens ... ;) When I was in 10th grade we moved to the country outside a blink in the road town (blink and you'll miss it), but the High School I went to was in a bigger town -- there were more people in my class than all the classes put together when I was growing up. In a consolidated school, no less (and I thought THAT class was huge when we consolidated and I àctually had about 15 kids in my class, lol). Back in the country now, after living in cities (Denver, Minneapolis) all the way down to the same blink in the road that I used to live in the country outside of. The closest town to me isn't quite a blink, it's about 3 blinks because almost the entire town is spread out along the highway that goes through it ... but I like making the 'trip to town', because they DO have a Dollar General ....the only downside is that I have about a 45 min drive to get to the larger town (about 90K) where I work. Waking up in the country every day, and being able to relax out here, is worth every minute of the drive!!
I live in a very small town (population ~5000) in the mountains of Southwestern Virginia. It's pretty quiet, except.....I live about a hundred yards from a railroad track. The track runs parallel to the street I live on. And my house is not far from a railroad crossing. You may not know, but the trains are required to blow their whistle when they get a certain distance from a crossing. The point at which they have to start blowing their whistle for the nearby crossing is almost exactly opposite my house. And in the summer I usually sleep with the windows open. And the trains go by at all hours. Funny thing though, if I'm asleep, the whistle never wakes me up. Guess I'm just used to it. LOL!
Love this one. Those are the 3 country boys at the end. Chance from rural Alabama, Tim from Texas and Austin from Georgia. I’m from Pennsylvania and suburbia. Pretty quiet actually. Don’t mind being near a city but could never live in it. When my son first moved to Seattle he lived above a bar. How he did that I don’t know. He’s a city boy and I don’t understand how he does it. He likes the hustle and bustle. My husband and I want to get more country. Good reaction!
Yeah & it's funny that the 3 country boys let the horses loose!! Lol. They should have had to muck the stalls as the fitting punishment like the rest of us who had to learn the lesson ;)
I grew up on a farm until I was out of High School, then I lived in big cities and small towns (lots of moving around). Now, I've been back in the country for several years, and will never move back to even a small town, let ALONE a city!! If I ever move off these 60 acres I want it to be the Rockies ... out in the boonies.
I truly believe that Mr John Denver would approve of their cover - a fine tribute to a wonderful singer/songwriter/poet! They brought humor into it, not overdoing it, just enough for effect. Born and raised in Texas, now living in TN, never mattered to me if it was big city or small farming community - so long as there's radio (and internet when it came around), I'm good. You're about my kids' age at a guess, but growing up in a small town gives off the same feeling as when I was a child. Most small communities are like time capsules. Another terrific reaction, thank you sir! I'm really enjoying your trip down the HF rabbit hole :)
Great reaction! Yep, I remember when this came out originally. Liked it back then, love Home Free's cover now! I could never live in big city either! Thanks for your reaction!
Yes, I agree with you. I got robbed in elementary school learning the stupid recorder. Man what I wouldn't do to have learned the fiddle/violin!!! Great review! Loved this cover by HF!
I love this version of the song. Subbed awhile back. I learned the recorder - broke it by "accident" on the 2nd day, stupid plastic non-instrument. Been to Starbucks before they went national. Meh. If I wanted burned coffee I'd have my husband make it. My town had a Kmart and it was tiny. We bought stuff from a tiny store called Kings and Converse tennis shoes were $5.00. LOL Walmart showed up after I got out of high school. I miss living in nowhereville. But those Katydids get loud. City loud gets muted after awhile, just like the songs of bugs at night get unnoticed.
I learned piano, clarinet and accordion in elementary school. In middle school I built a dulcimer, but didn't quite complete it. I did want to play it. Oh well. So I played at learning guitar. I did actually learn to play the recorder and hand bells well enough to play in our church choir. I have always lived in or near big towns. When I retire in a couple of years, I am going to move TO a town like you grew up in. My mom grew up a town very much like that.
My joke growing up was that I lived in the "suburbs" of Hale, Iowa. Hale has 2 blocks and I lived just past the Hale Village sign.🤣It used to have its own post office and a general store which became a bar/ restaurant. I now live in a house where I can see where I grew up out my window. Hale still has 2 blocks with about 20 people and a bar/ restaurant. The town I went to school is still about the same size. Around 600 people and until recently K-12 was all in one building. They eventually went in with a larger school. No stop lights and only 1 street that goes all the way through town. I've also lived in a big city. It wasn't horrible but everywhere I lived was in a fairly quiet neighborhood. I don't miss the traffic, that's for sure! I've been back in the country for about 11 yrs and the nearest stop light is 20 miles away and I'm ok with that! Thanks for your service and for diving down the Home Free rabbit hole! ❤
I was raised in a small town too.....one little country store, a tiny post office , a church, no traffic lights and 1 gas station.....big lake, and lot of farms.....LOL......do u know why the horse was trying to eat the chicken??.....LOL
Said and did the exact same as you first time I watched this at the coffee part. Homemade 6 scoops and add nothing. Still live in the same small town I grew up in.
6 scoops??!! Jeez Louise lol. I don't drink coffee, but sounds like yours would make your pants stand up by themselves if you spilled coffee on them hahah :)
Tim and Chance are wearing my HS uniform for the guys and some of us gals too. Had to include Chippewa boots. No school first day of deer season too, lol.
There was a Starbucks a block from where I worked (in Toronto, Ont.) - for a real treat, I'd get a couple of shots of espresso in a small coffee. But they were expensive, so I usually went to Timmy's instead (Tim Horton's - I'm not sure they have them in the U.S.).
I live in small town ky also. I love living in my lil town. I couldn't live in the city either I am so out of place In a city. I call it a concrete jungle. The school I went to also taught instruments n had choir. I was in choir from 3rd grade through high school. I'm from southeastern ky near TN line.
Hell, it takes me about 25 minutes to drive to the small town. By small, I believe it has the population of almost 5,000 people. It has a butcher shop, but no real store. I have to drive to the next tiny town. They have a walmart & a home town store. To get to a mall, that's about 4 hours each way. I love where I live. No one anywhere.
I lived in the city of berry there was no population in town at all one building for the post office and then a playground that looked like a horror movie area lol full population was 258 when I lived there. Walmart was 45 minutes away and the mall was an hour and something if I got on the interstate.
"I grew up in the country!" No kidding? Hard to tell...hehe. beard WITH baseball cap, WITH U.S. flag, WITH a bit of accent. It YELLS COUNTRY AND MILITARY VET! And so? That makes TWO of us!!!
@@SilverDestinyReactions Actually, I'm retired US Air Force, and living in the Philippines. I have Permanent Resident status here, but still a U.S. citizen, and full-blooded south Texan! I grew up close to George Strait, and we talked many times when we were younger.
@@SilverDestinyReactions Well that was before he got all famous. He was just playing in local honky tonks then, and just up and coming. We only lived, then about 40 miles apart. So, I was AT many of those honky tonks he played. He used to come off a set, and sit at our table with us, or stand at the bar talking. Good dude!
I'll give Mr. Silver a thumb's up for his video, but I can't do the same for Home Free. I've really..., REALLY tried to like them, but all their videos seem more like vocal exercises than heart felt renditions. While I like John Denver's recording of this song, I'm open to a good cover by almost anyone else. This didn't quite do it for me though. Just my opinion (and you know what they say about opinions).
I was born in Ashland Kentucky but I moved around in Kentucky every 2 to 3 years never settling in one place for to long I then went into the Military for 8 years and now I live on the Northern Side of Kentucky
I have family who learned to square dance in gym class in middle school lol ;) That was in Ohio (so NOT a southern or western country state that most people would think of lol)

When The fire flared up The guys weren’t expecting it! Home Fremont is great addition to the map! Nice Reaction!
I suggest their cover of John Michael Montgomery’s “Sold”. “In the Blood”. “Hillbilly Bone”. Anything they do is gold!
Loved Sold! And Hillbilly Bone
You was raised up the proper way there son. Be proud of that
My Dad grew up in rural Tennessee, went in to the Navy...then moved to Brooklyn after marrying my Mom. We would go back each year with him to visit family. I fell in love at a young age with the mountains, fresh air, running barefoot in the rain. This song reminds me of my Dad so much.
He held on to his southern speech patterns til he passed away few years ago. I think he recharged each visit. Needless to say I have some twisted accent and phrasing with a southern Dad and a Mom with a very strong Brooklyn accent. Thanks for the reaction and memories.
I can relate. My mom was from SE TN she came o Cincinnati, met my dad who's from KY. Every year, we'd go to visit my mom's family. The further south we got, the more southern she'd talk.
We were known as the yankee cousins.
@@M11969 I grew up in Cincy. My adopted parents were from WV. One of my step-sisters still lives in KY, one in OH, one in FL, one in Montana. But my parents & grand-parents are all gone.

My parents surprisingly didn't have the strong hillbilly accent that the rest of the WV family members had, I don't know how lol.

This is one of my favorite videos from them. Thank you for your service from one vet to another.
Great reaction to a great video!
Thank you!😀♥️❤️
Loved John Denver for more years than I want to admit. To have Home Free cover him makes me all tingly like. 🤣
That horse was liking those Tim kisses.
I grew up in the country, but on a state highway, so there was always noise.
Hey there! Thanks for reacting to this one 😊 I’ve always loved John Denver and used to play his music on my guitar. Home Free did an awesome job with this song❣️ I love the yodeling in it❣️ Thanks for sharing some of your story with us 🙏 I love the country as well😍
You didn't even stop to watch what stuff to drink they had for sale (there's usually jokes there too!)
Crickets kept me up when I visited a friend in the country. It all depends on what you are used to, I suppose.
Crickets were so loud, couldn't hear on the phone! That was last week. Lord forgot about bugs, biting flies!
Definitely what you're used to lmao! Cousins would visit and kept asking how I slept with all the noise - traffic, planes, helicopters, parties, loud music etc
I never noticed them. Me in the country? Owls, possum hisses, crickets, frogs - I'd hear them all lol
Go when the cicadas are out lol ;)

I've been back in the country for about 11 yrs and the nearest stop light is 20 miles away and I'm ok with that! Thanks for your service and for diving down the Home Free rabbit hole! ❤
I was raised in a small town too.....one little country store, a tiny post office , a church, no traffic lights and 1 gas station.....big lake, and lot of farms.....LOL......do u know why the horse was trying to eat the chicken??.....LOL
No idea lol
Said and did the exact same as you first time I watched this at the coffee part. Homemade 6 scoops and add nothing. Still live in the same small town I grew up in.
6 scoops??!! Jeez Louise lol. I don't drink coffee, but sounds like yours would make your pants stand up by themselves if you spilled coffee on them hahah :)
My small town doesn't have a Wal-Mart and until about 10 yrs ago when they snuck it in in a gas station we didn't even have a McDonald's lol
Tim and Chance are wearing my HS uniform for the guys and some of us gals too. Had to include Chippewa boots. No school first day of deer season too, lol.
I'm from a little town in Oklahoma. We don't even have a Walmart lol. I went to visit my sister in Phoenix, I didn't sleep for two weeks. Never again
home free never disappoints. and I'm with you. my idea of hell would be to die and come back in the next life in a city. any city. ugh.
This was fun. Thanks
Coffee? Did someone say COFFEE? OK, got my attention! :) We're Friends! (but only if it's good coffee, and real) Be Safe
There was a Starbucks a block from where I worked (in Toronto, Ont.) - for a real treat, I'd get a couple of shots of espresso in a small coffee. But they were expensive, so I usually went to Timmy's instead (Tim Horton's - I'm not sure they have them in the U.S.).
I live in small town ky also. I love living in my lil town. I couldn't live in the city either I am so out of place In a city. I call it a concrete jungle. The school I went to also taught instruments n had choir. I was in choir from 3rd grade through high school. I'm from southeastern ky near TN line.
You need to watch Land Of The Free by Home Free. It was written by Tim.
We do our own cooking and coffee cause we are country... no one can compare to home cooking lol
Hell, it takes me about 25 minutes to drive to the small town. By small, I believe it has the population of almost 5,000 people. It has a butcher shop, but no real store. I have to drive to the next tiny town. They have a walmart & a home town store.
To get to a mall, that's about 4 hours each way.
I love where I live. No one anywhere.
I lived in the city of berry there was no population in town at all one building for the post office and then a playground that looked like a horror movie area lol full population was 258 when I lived there. Walmart was 45 minutes away and the mall was an hour and something if I got on the interstate.
Thia is a good one
"I grew up in the country!" No kidding? Hard to tell...hehe. beard WITH baseball cap, WITH U.S. flag, WITH a bit of accent. It YELLS COUNTRY AND MILITARY VET! And so? That makes TWO of us!!!
Looks like I've been busted lol Also Much love Brother Hope all is well where you are and Life is pleasant
@@SilverDestinyReactions Actually, I'm retired US Air Force, and living in the Philippines. I have Permanent Resident status here, but still a U.S. citizen, and full-blooded south Texan! I grew up close to George Strait, and we talked many times when we were younger.
@@dwanemarsh4378 That's Awesome! Not everyone can say I'm home town friends with George Straight
@@SilverDestinyReactions Well that was before he got all famous. He was just playing in local honky tonks then, and just up and coming. We only lived, then about 40 miles apart. So, I was AT many of those honky tonks he played. He used to come off a set, and sit at our table with us, or stand at the bar talking. Good dude!
I live in a town with one stop sign two gas stations, one bar, and seven churches no fast food and corn for a neighbor. POP 1200
I learned the recorder in 4th grade
I'll give Mr. Silver a thumb's up for his video, but I can't do the same for Home Free. I've really..., REALLY tried to like them, but all their videos seem more like vocal exercises than heart felt renditions. While I like John Denver's recording of this song, I'm open to a good cover by almost anyone else. This didn't quite do it for me though. Just my opinion (and you know what they say about opinions).
So, where do you come from? I detect a bit of Southern accent there, don't I?
I was born in Ashland Kentucky but I moved around in Kentucky every 2 to 3 years never settling in one place for to long I then went into the Military for 8 years and now I live on the Northern Side of Kentucky
They didn’t teach any music when I went to school. I am older than you and from the country too
think i got cheated too where the hell did you grow up?
The recorder, the most annoying instrument ever invented.🤦♀️
My son is a Canadian Vet. We love our Tim Horton's up here.
I have family who learned to square dance in gym class in middle school lol ;) That was in Ohio (so NOT a southern or western country state that most people would think of lol)
