Tim (the first lead singer) wrote this arrangement at age 19. I'm sure you can tell he is a bass - with a twist. He has a 5 octave range which he shows off in some other HF songs as well as his own channel. The second lead singer is Austin. He left the group in June of this year. My personal favorite from the group is "Do You Hear What I Hear" which was arranged by by Adam Rupp, co-founder and beat boxer for the group. You will not be disappointed in any song they do. I'm glad to see somebody else as enthralled by bell chords as I am.
Just subscribed with hopes for more Home Free. They are the best! They do a huge variety of music and each have a very impressive vocal range. Even Adam, the beatboxer, was singing in this one and I love when that happens. Thanks for the Home Free reactions! Your song was a very beautiful treat.
Yes, welcome to Home Free, all acapella, no instruments at all. Masters of all musical genres. This is not the song most people hear first when reacting to Home Free for the first time. However it does showcase their harmony and skill. They won the 4th season of the Sing Off in 2013. Their covers are upgrades, their medleys are brilliant, their collaborations with the original artists are inspirational, and their original songs are masterpieces. Within this 5 man vocal band you have 5 tenors, 5 beat boxers, and 2 bass-baritones. All of them can sing lead and they choose depending on whose voice best fits the song. Typically Rob sings tenor, Austin sings high tenor, Chance sings baritone, Tim sings bass and Adam Rupp is the beat boxer. But they have been known to mix it up. They can do just about anything and they continue to grow and improve, yet they remain so humble. When they have featured guest artist, they support and allow their featured artists to shine. Several of them have their own channels and do some solo work. And just for fun Rob and Austin sing Opera. What else can I say? Their catalogue of work is quite large and continues to grow. You are in for an exciting journey and the Home Fries will be there for you all the way.
Welcome to the Home Free party. Tim Foust, the bass who was the first soloist, arranged this when he was 19. He's made some adjustments since then, but it's basically that first arrangement. Their version of Angels We Have Heard on High, which snuck in at the end, is also fabulous. Arranged by Chris Rupp, the guy in the hat. Their catalog is very deep and varied - everything from country to rock to R&B to sacred, even a little opera from the 2 tenors. Anyplace is a good place to go next, but I highly recommend their version of How Great Thou Art, filmed in the Austrian Alps. Enjoy the ride.
Excellent reaction Nikolleta. I look forward to more to come with Home Free. They are an exceptional group. I'd also like to compliment you on your version of the song. You have a beautiful voice!
Welcome to the world of the Home Fries. I saw them in concert last night, my 5th go around. Not only are thy exceptional at what they do, they are just a great bunch of guys. Down to earth and down right funny. Their playfulness is one of their most endearing charisterics. And thank you for your gift at the end. It was simply beautiful. You have a new subscriber.
Thank you for reacting to Home Free Nikoletta 🙏 and this song is great for the Christmas season, but this is an old performance of theirs and does not do justice to the amazing vocal talents of the singers and incredible talent of the beatboxer. They just released a cover of You're A Mean One, Mr. Grinch that shows Tim's low range instead of his upper register like in this song. Helplessly Hoping, Man Of Constant Sorrow, Ring Of Fire (feat. Avi Kaplan), and When A Man Lives A Woman are just a few of their covers that show the incredible talent of these 5 fellows. 🙌🙏 Merry Christmas to you and your husband 🎄✌️
A little background on the guys. Tim, who is first singing lead, is from Texas. Austin, who goes falsetto, is from Georgia. The others are from Minnesota. One commenter here mentioned Chance. He's not in this video. That bass-baritone from Alabama joins the group when Chris Rupp, in the cowboy hat, leaves in early 2016. Austin Brown has a degree in musical theater. Rob Lundquist (glasses) has an opera background. The two of them did a video singing Nessun Dorma that is fabulous. Austin left to go solo about five or six months ago so their latest Christmas number -- You're a Mean One, Mr, Grinch -- has Bastien (Bass-teen), who was actually a former member twice over. Note: Chance and Bastien go by their last names since the name 'Adam' was already taken by the beatboxer and original member Adam Rupp.
You can't go wrong with home free. They are such a phenomenal group. My favorite rendition of this song is by David Phelps. If you get a chance and you haven't already you should check out his version of this song. Watch the video of him with the green sweater.
I love acapella! It's the first time I've heard this group as well and I'm impressed! And your version: Chef's kiss! We don't hear you sing much as you let us (your students) sing. So this was a treat and I enjoyed it so much!
If you love acapella you really need to go down the Home Free rabbit hole. Hundreds of official videos, many genres, fantastic voices, and beautiful harmonies.
Great Reaction!! Welcome to the Home Free rabbit hole The group started in 2000/2001( there’s contention on the year)by brothers Chris and Adam Rupp They won The Sing Off season 4 2013 They are the only Country A Capella ( all vocals no instruments)group but they are honestly do so so much more than just country music they can sing any genre and they do. There is no Lead singer in the group.They each ( except Adam R )sings the song and who’s ever voice or voices sound right for the song gets the lead unless it is a bass/ baritone song then that’s Tim or Chance.A lot of time each member have a part in the song.

They are just funny, down to earth, humble nice guys.They are the best A Cappella group there is IMO Sorry for the long read 🏠🍟 One more thing that might interest you is Austin Brown (2nd singer) and Rob Lundquist( beard and glasses) have a video on Austin’s page called Two Country Singers Try Singing Opera Nessun Dorma
Another favorite Christmas song is "Do You Hear What I Hear". Home Free performed the song outside in an Ice Castle. You have a beautiful voice! I really enjoyed your singing.
This song was my first introduction to Home Free--and they've been my favorite musicians ever since! Love it when these guys voice the bell tones🔔 Besides the unbelievable harmonies--and gorgeous church backdrop--getting to hear Adam Rupp's sweet tenor actually singing is a real treat ❣️🎼🥰🎶❤️ #HomeFree #HomeFreeDoesChristmasBest #AdamRuppSinging
Home Free is my favorite (and I don't use that word lightly) a capella group. They changed members a few times, but they all work great together. Adam Rupp (the middle-back man) is their beatboxer, and he is amazing! A few of my favorites of theirs are: Man of Constant Sorrow Ring of Fire Grandma Got Run Over By A Reindeer Shoot, just about anything of theirs! Tim Faust (the bass) did a solo album that is amazing, too. His rendition of Will You Still Love Me Tomorrow/Stay is EPIC.
How nice to find you. I’m such a big fan of HomeFree and Faouzia, I’m always on the hunt for reactions. Thanks you for sharing your song at the end. Happy Christmas.
Luv home free. If your interested , austin brown the high tenor up front and rob lundquist the tener in the back (with beard and glasses) released a cover of “nessun dorma”
HF's background vocals are always amazing and constantly changing to keep the sound 'alive'. They are masters of the ooh, aah, and mmm. Austin (the second lead) was trained in musical theater. Go fall down the HF rabbit hole, we will welcome you with open arms.
Tim Foust is the bass who started the song. He arranged it when he was 19. Tim has a 5 octave range. Rob (glasses) studied opera in college. Such a beautiful song. They are all so tremendously talented. Try Helplessly Hoping, I Can’t Outrun You, One Man Band, How Great Thou Art. Have a wonderful Christmas!!!!
It’s a great selection for a first Home Free experience, and of course it fits the season. It’s a rendition I’m listening to a lot for the holiday. Guy who took the first verse is a bass, and is well renowned for his five-octave range and ability to hit notes up in tenor in addition to his very low bass range. Other tunes by them will showcase his major depth. Second verse was sung by their former high tenor, who has departed to be a family man. For me this is the top a cappella group, and my #1 fave. I consider this one of their most heartfelt renditions, packed with stunning spiritual feeling.
Caution: Home Free is highly addictive. They're all vocal chameleons who sing (and 3 of them write) in almost every genre. There are lots of originals as well as covers both on the band's channel, fan's channels and their individual channel(s). Tim Foust is from Texas; Austin Brown -south Georgia; the others are from Minnesota. Both Austin & Rob Lundquist (glasses) are classically trained. Austin Brown has just released a video (on his channel) for a rendition of "Defying Gravity" that's terrific! Dive down the rabbit hole!
HOME FREE!! NICE!! These guys are great.. and I hadn't heard this one yet and it's one of my favorite holiday songs.. I love the way they shoot their videos.. the zooming in and out as a compliment to their vocals. But this video had it all.. Nikoletta has now found Home Free.. we git a brief Harry mack from her singing about what she had just seen 😊 then a beautiful performance by Nikoletta.. she has great Christmas music here on this channel. I encourage everyone to check them out. Definitely will have her songs playing at the house on the big day. Thanks for a great reaction.. love how excited Nikoletta gets when she finds something she likes.. you can see the joy on her face. So thanks for sharing part of yourself with us in these videos and for sharing your own artistry at the end with your version. That was wonderful. Truly thank you for that reaction video.. the whole video was just wonderful. Thank you.
Wonderful reaction - subbed hoping for more #HomeFree!! Sticking true to the season, you might try "Do You Hear What I Hear" by them. Also... wow - what a beautiful voice you have! Thanks for sharing that with us
They are very talented and well trained Tim is the base 5 octave range. Austin the other main singer and Rob the singer on the left with glasses both have musical degrees Austin in musical theatre, and Rob as an Opera singer very good tenor but changed over to country and arcipello after graduating.
Tim Foust, the 1st to start out, is the Bass of the group….BUT …. He has a 5+ Octave Range….he’s just AMAZINGLY TALENTED ( oh, & talks Bass🙃😵💫) He also writes music, has been writing since a teen. He also has a Great sense of humor 😂🙃‼️💕 Their concerts are Soooo Fun 💕♥️💕‼️🙃 (He releases his Dragon‼️😵💫🙃😂…shocks a lot who don’t what this guy can do ‼️).
I love this version by HF... but as a classically trained singer, you should check out the version by David Phelps when he was with the Gaithers. He is a phenomenal tenor who studied vocal performance at Baylor University and whose career has primarily been as a Christian singer. Look for the version where he's wearing a green sweater... any version is wonderful, but that is a live performance at the historic Alabama Theater. And the Holy Spirit was present. I've never been so moved.
Beautiful reaction and your rendition was spectacular ❤ can’t wait too hear more Home Free reactions there amazing. Hope you check out Do You Hear What I Hear.
Just so you know, even though they are mainly a country group, Rob was Classically trained. Rob and Adam sang an opera song made famous by Pavarotti "Nessen Dorma".
The Big 3 - Pentatonix, Voiceplay, Home Free. Can't wait to see what you dive into. Funny thing, I posted earlier this morning in my work chat that today (12/20/24) is Home Free Fry-day. Haha.
Definitely! I think she would love Pentatonix! So much more to explore with Home Free too.. I'll have to check out voice play.. have not heard them before.. Naturally 7 goes back a ways.. but I'd say they are similar and had some good stuff back in the day.
@@SamSnips Michael puts on a very good show. But the last concert I saw was HomeFree, last week. HomeFree plays smaller venues but the audience is more engaged so it’s a bit more fun. Check their “Sea Shanty Medley Live” from September 2023.
That was beautiful! Thank you for sharing your voice. 😊 I believe that you would really enjoy from Home Free.....Do You Hear What I Hear. I would like to know what your reaction will be.
There is no GROUP OF SINGERS this great individually and especially in HARMONIC confluence ...... the group has lost Chris several years ago from this ensemble - Chance took the Baritone he vacated, Austin - high tenor and second lead singer herein .... now gone this past summer ... a Fellow name Basteine - not sure is a good High Tenor ..... still a great A Capella group !
good review! jusy FYI, the first solost is their bass! and they are so much more than a "country a capella" group. Their very large catalog spans multiple genres. and almost everything is just wonderful.
Welcome to the homefree rabbit whole. And if no one has told us fans have a nickname we are known worldwide as HomeFries. Also check out their vault Playlist if you want to see their behind the scenes videos.
Nikoletta, what a stunning voice. You are going to have a blast following Home Free, their talent is pretty obvious even after just one of their videos. Please check their latest, Santa Claus is coming to town. With Santa Clause you'll get to see their comedic side !!! They never take themselves too seriously !!
I can't wait to see her hear Man of Constant Sorrow. And of course a number of others. Particularly Nessun Dorma. Edit: Holy moly, Nikoletta! I would have expected you to be pretty good, but you just brought tears to my eyes simply because that was so beautiful.
Nice reaction. (subscribed) ❣ Well you have been introduced to the most diverse A Capela group that sings the most diverse genre of music out there. There beat boxer is off the charts great does all of the percussion and a multitude of other sounds that are utilized throughout the many covers and originals they have recorded. Their videos that accompany their recordings are superb from to serious to hilarious depending on the song. Each of the guys could have a solo career they are that good. Their collection of approximately 250+ covers and originals is a deep rabbit hole as they address approximately 10 different music genres and few others when select members separately record. They just recently released a new Christmas Album. That includes "You're A Mean One, Mr. Grinch" , An Original one - "The Greatest Gifts Of All" and several others.🎄 Thank you for your rendition of O Holy Night!! Very nice indeed!! 💫💥💟
please react to Geoff Castalluci's Carol of the Bells, his arrangement is amazing. Then follow it up with him in Voice play's (a capella group) version of Louis Armstrong's Zat you Santa Claus,
It was while watching this video that I finally realized that I’ll never be able to do or amount to anything in this life. Not just that I won’t ever be able to sing, but I’m never going to be able to be good at anything. Ever. Well, good at screwing things up I guess. Hard to see the point of continuing to stick around at all. Kind of sucks but it is what it is.
And while you're exploring the world of Home Free and (maybe) Pentatonix, don't forget to go catch some Acoustix and Dallas Vocal Majority (great barbershop). And, yes, I enjoyed you soprano version of the song a lot too.
Home free is always great, have not heard a bad one yet....But I have a question...Why don't you ever try a Lucy Thomas song ?? Or has no one requested one of hers yet? She has over a million followers and has so many covers..She is a young girl from England and is 20 years old.. She has no restrictions on playing her music and often gets back to her reactors..She sings with her younger sister sometimes and will amaze you... People hear her once and are hooked.. You will be also..Try ...The Prayer - Sister Duet - Lucy & Martha Thomas... Or Hallelujah - Lucy Thomas - (Official Music Video)..Oh, by the way, You are the first opera singer who has lost that ridiculous opera voice trying to sing everyday music..Sounds so good to hear a regular voice.. Your Opera voice has a place, Opera only...lol
you guys need to react to more nightwish you havent heard anything yet nicole here are the other best songs they have Nightwish The Poet and the Pendulum official live video, Nightwish Yours Is An Empty Hope live at Wembley 2015, Nightwish The Greatest Show On Earth Live - (Legendado PT/Br), Nightwish Story Time official live video, and Nightwish Romanticide official live video and please do them in that order they are amazing i think you would lovethese songs please let me know what you think
I rec Geoff castelluchi deep bass cover of,the carol of the bells , he is bass singer for voice play accapella group the theater kids there called they do all the work lights arrangements sound own patty-cake production studios you need to check them out too oh nice to meet you I'm new here so you gained a new sub also lol
Okay, so thank you for the reaction, but I have a favor to ask...when you sing a song like that could you flash a graphic reminding people to breathe every so often? I kept forgetting to when you were really getting into it.
Your rendition was STUNNING. I found myself wondering if it would have been even MORE powerful (hard to believe) if you had been standing up? I'd be curious about your thoughts on that. I'm sure you won't see this comment though. You are so interesting. Are you aware of "The Charismatic Voice"? I say that about her all the time too.
Can you react to "Lonely Night" by Boohwal, please? ua-cam.com/video/ciq6IKTK1Ew/v-deo.htmlsi=jRyhHklFmdy5WVnn The vocalist of the band at the time (who is still a band member) Park Wan-kyu is a male, but his vocal range is so high that he can sing up to D#6. His voice is also so loud. He even used to be a shop every time he sang, and the lowest note didn't go below A3. (This made it hard for him to sing the band's existing songs, so the guitarist told him he had a hard time writing a song that fit him.) He literally surpassed most women. But he got a high voice because he took insecticide when he was young. His condition was bad enough to go to the hospital, but he got better. And he screamed in the mountains because he was practicing singing in high school. So his vocal cords became nodular. I'm proud of his attitude of continuing to sing even in these bad conditions. I hope you listen to and feel the vocal's songs with these touching stories.
great reaction and beautiful singing at the end. I would like to hear you react to Lucy and Martha Thomas sing this song. They are ages 17 and 11 when they sing. ua-cam.com/video/Bbu6AII10Pk/v-deo.html&pp=ygUjbyBob2x5IG5pZ2h0IGx1Y3kgYW5kIG1hcnRoYSB0aG9tYXM%3D

May I suggest (highly) Homefree's version of "Do You Hear What I Hear" ? It is a vocal MASTERPIECE !!!!!
Absolute “YES” to this!😎
Agreed it’s amazing
Yessss
Yesss this one is a must will not disappoint
Just subscribed with hopes for more Home Free. They are the best! They do a huge variety of music and each have a very impressive vocal range. Even Adam, the beatboxer, was singing in this one and I love when that happens. Thanks for the Home Free reactions! Your song was a very beautiful treat.

Home Free is my favorite (and I don't use that word lightly) a capella group. They changed members a few times, but they all work great together. Adam Rupp (the middle-back man) is their beatboxer, and he is amazing! A few of my favorites of theirs are:
Man of Constant Sorrow
Ring of Fire
Grandma Got Run Over By A Reindeer
Shoot, just about anything of theirs!
Tim Faust (the bass) did a solo album that is amazing, too. His rendition of Will You Still Love Me Tomorrow/Stay is EPIC.
Thank you for reacting to Home Free
A special thanks for your rendition. It was beautiful thumbs up for that.👍
How nice to find you.

Thanks you for sharing your song at the end. Happy Christmas.
Luv home free. If your interested , austin brown the high tenor up front and rob lundquist the tener in the back (with beard and glasses) released a cover of “nessun dorma”
And it was fantastic!
HF's background vocals are always amazing and constantly changing to keep the sound 'alive'. They are masters of the ooh, aah, and mmm.

Guy who took the first verse is a bass, and is well renowned for his five-octave range and ability to hit notes up in tenor in addition to his very low bass range. Other tunes by them will showcase his major depth. Second verse was sung by their former high tenor, who has departed to be a family man. For me this is the top a cappella group, and my #1 fave. I consider this one of their most heartfelt renditions, packed with stunning spiritual feeling.
Tim, the first verse singer, is actually a Basso Profundo, with an A0 to B5 range ! Not that you would think in this instance !
Excellent reaction wow you have a beautiful voice later beautiful.❤️😎🇺🇸
Also, i think we may invite you into the Home Free fan club: the Home Fries.
I’m glad you found home free. Between Ren, harry mack and home free you now cover all my favorite artists to react to!
Auld Lang Syne. It's that time of year. If you want to be blown away by chord structure choices.
Yes to this one!
Caution: Home Free is highly addictive. They're all vocal chameleons who sing (and 3 of them write) in almost every genre. There are lots of originals as well as covers both on the band's channel, fan's channels and their individual channel(s). Tim Foust is from Texas; Austin Brown -south Georgia; the others are from Minnesota. Both Austin & Rob Lundquist (glasses) are classically trained. Austin Brown has just released a video (on his channel) for a rendition of "Defying Gravity" that's terrific! Dive down the rabbit hole!
HOME FREE!! NICE!! These guys are great.. and I hadn't heard this one yet and it's one of my favorite holiday songs.. I love the way they shoot their videos.. the zooming in and out as a compliment to their vocals. But this video had it all.. Nikoletta has now found Home Free.. we git a brief Harry mack from her singing about what she had just seen 😊 then a beautiful performance by Nikoletta.. she has great Christmas music here on this channel. I encourage everyone to check them out. Definitely will have her songs playing at the house on the big day. Thanks for a great reaction.. love how excited Nikoletta gets when she finds something she likes.. you can see the joy on her face. So thanks for sharing part of yourself with us in these videos and for sharing your own artistry at the end with your version. That was wonderful. Truly thank you for that reaction video.. the whole video was just wonderful. Thank you.
You're a serious wow with you're talent. Thank you. It sure was a pleasure to listen to you're rendition of this song
Your voice is amazing 😍 Relistening again and again...
Recommending another Christmas performance: "O Come, All Ye Faithful - Voctave"
If you want country a cappella and christmas, check out their version of "White Christmas"
LOVE your surprises! Thank you!
Wonderful reaction - subbed hoping for more #HomeFree!! Sticking true to the season, you might try "Do You Hear What I Hear" by them.
Also... wow - what a beautiful voice you have! Thanks for sharing that with us
Wow, this was incredible!!!
I’ve heard this band do Ring of Fire years ago and it was amazing… definitely worth checking out
BEAUTIFUL
They are very talented and well trained Tim is the base 5 octave range. Austin the other main singer and Rob the singer on the left with glasses both have musical degrees Austin in musical theatre, and Rob as an Opera singer very good tenor but changed over to country and arcipello after graduating.
Btw. You sang beautifully. And sitting too. Heres ur flowers🌹🌹🌹🌹🌹🌹🌹🌹🌹🌹🌹🌹
Tim Foust, the 1st to start out, is the Bass of the group….BUT …. He has a 5+ Octave Range….he’s just AMAZINGLY TALENTED ( oh, & talks Bass🙃😵💫) He also writes music, has been writing since a teen. He also has a Great sense of humor 😂🙃‼️💕 Their concerts are Soooo Fun 💕♥️💕‼️🙃 (He releases his Dragon‼️😵💫🙃😂…shocks a lot who don’t what this guy can do ‼️).
I love this version by HF... but as a classically trained singer, you should check out the version by David Phelps when he was with the Gaithers. He is a phenomenal tenor who studied vocal performance at Baylor University and whose career has primarily been as a Christian singer. Look for the version where he's wearing a green sweater... any version is wonderful, but that is a live performance at the historic Alabama Theater. And the Holy Spirit was present. I've never been so moved.
Beautiful reaction and your rendition was spectacular ❤ can’t wait too hear more Home Free reactions there amazing. Hope you check out Do You Hear What I Hear.
Just so you know, even though they are mainly a country group, Rob was Classically trained. Rob and Adam sang an opera song made famous by Pavarotti "Nessen Dorma".
Tim has a 5 octive range, so he can go as high and as low as necessary to make the sound just right.
The Big 3 - Pentatonix, Voiceplay, Home Free. Can't wait to see what you dive into. Funny thing, I posted earlier this morning in my work chat that today (12/20/24) is Home Free Fry-day. Haha.
Definitely! I think she would love Pentatonix! So much more to explore with Home Free too.. I'll have to check out voice play.. have not heard them before.. Naturally 7 goes back a ways.. but I'd say they are similar and had some good stuff back in the day.
@@SamSnipsHeard Naturally 7 at Michael Bublé concerts. 🙂
@itzel1735 wow.. what a concert that must have been. I am officially jealous.. 😆 🤣 very cool.
@@SamSnips Michael puts on a very good show. But the last concert I saw was HomeFree, last week. HomeFree plays smaller venues but the audience is more engaged so it’s a bit more fun. Check their “Sea Shanty Medley Live” from September 2023.
@itzel1735 Nice.. I will check it out.. Thanks.
2 of them also did Nessun Dorma together highly recommend!
That was beautiful! Thank you for sharing your voice. 😊 I believe that you would really enjoy from Home Free.....Do You Hear What I Hear. I would like to know what your reaction will be.
There is no GROUP OF SINGERS this great individually and especially in HARMONIC confluence ...... the group has lost Chris several years ago from this ensemble - Chance took the Baritone he vacated, Austin - high tenor and second lead singer herein .... now gone this past summer ... a Fellow name Basteine - not sure is a good High Tenor ..... still a great A Capella group !
good review! jusy FYI, the first solost is their bass! and they are so much more than a "country a capella" group. Their very large catalog spans multiple genres. and almost everything is just wonderful.
Ilove your voice- Merry Christmas!
Please more Home Free Videos! 🙏🏻🙏🏻🙏🏻
Welcome to the homefree rabbit whole. And if no one has told us fans have a nickname we are known worldwide as HomeFries.
Also check out their vault Playlist if you want to see their behind the scenes videos.
Nikoletta, what a stunning voice. You are going to have a blast following Home Free, their talent is pretty obvious even after just one of their videos. Please check their latest, Santa Claus is coming to town. With Santa Clause you'll get to see their comedic side !!! They never take themselves too seriously !!
The starting singer is the BASS of the group and the writer of this rendition.....
A song you HAVE to check out is Seven Nation Army - Voiceplay fit Anthony Garhiula.
It tickles the brain so good 😅
I can't wait to see her hear Man of Constant Sorrow. And of course a number of others. Particularly Nessun Dorma. Edit: Holy moly, Nikoletta! I would have expected you to be pretty good, but you just brought tears to my eyes simply because that was so beautiful.
After you listen to Do You Hear What I Hear, you will have fun listening to Rob and Austin sing Nessum Dorma .
#HomeFree ❤❤
HOME FREE-DO YOU HEAR WHAT I HEAR
Nice reaction. (subscribed) ❣
Well you have been introduced to the most diverse A Capela group that sings the most diverse genre of music out there. There beat boxer is off the charts great does all of the percussion and a multitude of other sounds that are utilized throughout the many covers and originals they have recorded. Their videos that accompany their recordings are superb from to serious to hilarious depending on the song. Each of the guys could have a solo career they are that good. Their collection of approximately 250+ covers and originals is a deep rabbit hole as they address approximately 10 different music genres and few others when select members separately record.
They just recently released a new Christmas Album. That includes "You're A Mean One, Mr. Grinch" , An Original one - "The Greatest Gifts Of All" and several others.🎄
Thank you for your rendition of O Holy Night!! Very nice indeed!! 💫💥💟
🥰
After Christmas you need to hear their countrified cover of Meghan Trainor's All About That Bass. It is fun and awesome.
please react to Geoff Castalluci's Carol of the Bells, his arrangement is amazing. Then follow it up with him in Voice play's (a capella group) version of Louis Armstrong's Zat you Santa Claus,
It was while watching this video that I finally realized that I’ll never be able to do or amount to anything in this life. Not just that I won’t ever be able to sing, but I’m never going to be able to be good at anything. Ever. Well, good at screwing things up I guess. Hard to see the point of continuing to stick around at all. Kind of sucks but it is what it is.
And while you're exploring the world of Home Free and (maybe) Pentatonix, don't forget to go catch some Acoustix and Dallas Vocal Majority (great barbershop). And, yes, I enjoyed you soprano version of the song a lot too.
Home free is always great, have not heard a bad one yet....But I have a question...Why don't you ever try a Lucy Thomas song ?? Or has no one requested one of hers yet? She has over a million followers and has so many covers..She is a young girl from England and is 20 years old.. She has no restrictions on playing her music and often gets back to her reactors..She sings with her younger sister sometimes and will amaze you... People hear her once and are hooked.. You will be also..Try ...The Prayer - Sister Duet - Lucy & Martha Thomas... Or Hallelujah - Lucy Thomas - (Official Music Video)..Oh, by the way, You are the first opera singer who has lost that ridiculous opera voice trying to sing everyday music..Sounds so good to hear a regular voice.. Your Opera voice has a place, Opera only...lol
Listen to:
Assaf Avidan
in a box ll - your anchor
Or
(Suggested by Ren👇)
Asaf Avidan - In A Box III - Rock of Lazarus

The top accapella group in my opinion see for yourself
Okay, so thank you for the reaction, but I have a favor to ask...when you sing a song like that could you flash a graphic reminding people to breathe every so often? I kept forgetting to when you were really getting into it.
Your rendition was STUNNING. I found myself wondering if it would have been even MORE powerful (hard to believe) if you had been standing up? I'd be curious about your thoughts on that. I'm sure you won't see this comment though. You are so interesting. Are you aware of "The Charismatic Voice"? I say that about her all the time too.
Thank you! 😊 and yes I agree if I were standing up I know it would have been slightly different (:
Can you react to "Lonely Night" by Boohwal, please? ua-cam.com/video/ciq6IKTK1Ew/v-deo.htmlsi=jRyhHklFmdy5WVnn The vocalist of the band at the time (who is still a band member) Park Wan-kyu is a male, but his vocal range is so high that he can sing up to D#6. His voice is also so loud. He even used to be a shop every time he sang, and the lowest note didn't go below A3. (This made it hard for him to sing the band's existing songs, so the guitarist told him he had a hard time writing a song that fit him.) He literally surpassed most women. But he got a high voice because he took insecticide when he was young. His condition was bad enough to go to the hospital, but he got better. And he screamed in the mountains because he was practicing singing in high school. So his vocal cords became nodular. I'm proud of his attitude of continuing to sing even in these bad conditions. I hope you listen to and feel the vocal's songs with these touching stories.
great reaction and beautiful singing at the end. I would like to hear you react to Lucy and Martha Thomas sing this song. They are ages 17 and 11 when they sing. ua-cam.com/video/Bbu6AII10Pk/v-deo.html&pp=ygUjbyBob2x5IG5pZ2h0IGx1Y3kgYW5kIG1hcnRoYSB0aG9tYXM%3D
