    This song was the first one I ever heard from Home Free. I had been listening to Pentatonix, and I got this as a recommendation. It took me three or four times of listening to it before I could fully appreciate it. There is so much happening throughout the entire song.

    That particular Ice Palace was in Eden Prairie, Minnesota in the US. We have an Ice Palace every winter here in Minnesota when temperatures allow. The Christmas season of 2023 was too warm unfortunately. The palace is built in different places around the the Twin Cities metropolitan area. They’re always gorgeous ❤

  • @lisabeaver7675
    @lisabeaver7675 9 місяців тому

    I agree with you 💯 they definitely showcase their incredible talent in this song. I have watched several reaction to this amazing HF song and you are one other than a vocal coach that heard Tim's incredible bass drop in the beginning. The song you heard at the end was Oh Holy Night its another jaw dropping Christmas song. I wouldn't go a Christmas without hearing both of these songs at least 50 times. Thanks for a wonderful reaction 😊

  • @lschoenrank
    @lschoenrank 9 місяців тому +1

    Think about where this event is taking place, and think about the music of that place. I think Austin's "wails" are a nod to that time and place.

    This is my favourite traditional Christmas song from Home Free.
    The arrangement & execution is immaculate.
    Of their other Christmas songs, I love Winter Song for something non-traditional but still an amazing arrangement.
    And for upbeat, can’t go past Cold Hard Cash, haha.

    This song makes me want to go outside at night and look for the Eastern Star. I like this song to start with but I "LOVE" HF's upgrade of this song. The beginning of this song really gives you the feel of what it would have been like back in the days of Bethlehem when Christ was born. Tim gets a "Dragon" growl in there and blows your mind. Then Austin comes in with these "Angelic" high ringing notes. And then back to Tim's Dragon notes again. And when they get to "He will bring us Goodness and Light", and Tim goes so far down and Austin goes so far up, they just seem to "SPLIT" the whole earth in half with those opposing notes. EPIC !!! My most favorite HF song. Thanks for your reaction, your so entertaining to watch. Have a Merry Christmas !

    I've been waiting for you to react to this one!! This is my favorite HF song. It's so intricate. You can't really hear everything going on listening to it once.
    The ice castle where this was filmed is in Minnesota. They move it every year to take advantage of the colder temps in certain parts of the state. I believe this year its in Maple Grove.

    DJ, I have wanted to see your reaction to this for so long. You did not disappoint! This has been one of my favorite Christmas songs since I was 10 years old and that is a very long time indeed. I did not think it could be improved on. Boy did Home Free school me on that one. Kudos to Adam Rupp for an out of this world arrangement. And as to the ice castle there are multiple places here in the States that have holiday ice castles to visit. I just love them! 19:17

  • @jolenegeffre3281
    @jolenegeffre3281 9 місяців тому +36

    I was never fond of this song - until Home Free's rendition of it. Naturally, the singing & harmonies are terrific and Adam's arrangement of it and beatboxing are out of this world (he truly must be an alien). Thanks for playing this & your comments. If you haven't yet heard "Beautiful Star of Bethlehem" (with Jeffrey East & The Oak Ridge Boys) and "Christmas in Dixie" (with Alabama) they're must-sees.

      So, y'all got hit by the Home Free Curse too? They'll cover a song you absolutely cannot stand and make you like it against your will. I got hit with it four times before I gave up and quit counting. Welcome to the club. We have a secret handshake.

    • @GoinBand2
      @GoinBand2 9 місяців тому +1

      I grew up with the choral version of this song. (And if you were in choir in the 70's, you know the arrangement that I'm talking about.) I absolutely hated that song. Home Free has totally made over this song, and now it's one of my favorites.

    • @GrandmaCherie24

  • @JoanN63
    @JoanN63 9 місяців тому +22

    For me one of the best arranged songs, or perhaps the best, of Home Free. So impressive! The phenomenal beatboxing/vocal percussion , the overwhelming bass(notes), the great harmonies, the sound effects, colors, etc. in such a beautiful but cold scenery. I could listen and watch this all the time. A lot happens, but not that it is disturbing. Just amazing.

  • @AngB517
    @AngB517 8 місяців тому +1

    Until Tim started singing, I kept thinking they need to hire Adam for the next Jason Voorhees movie. I don't think Do You Hear What I Hear has ever scared me as much as that 28-30 seconds!!!!
    Then it became the song that I love (I'm a Pagan with a weird love of *some* Christmas songs, O Holy Night is probably my favorite).
    ok, I think any time we see Tim's hand start floating down we just need to be ready for the heart arrhythmia from the bass. Elizabeth Zharoff has explained that hand gestures can enhance some notes. Tim's just means rattling windows, funky heart beats, and earthquakes. 🤯💥

    guess why Adam Rupp doesn't arrange more often for Home Free.....Because his arrangements are so complex and difficult. It is absolutely stunning. All of these guys are just next level talented and skilled. No matter what they put their focus on, it turns out to be stellar. The performance of this was fabulous, as well. The intro beat boxing is the essence of winter. Ice crunching, the sharp intake of breath when you first go out into the really cold weather, the frigid wind. Really sets a mood, doesn't it?! By the way, Adam does a solo version of Carol of the Bells in his solo sets at the live shows that is jaw dropping. You can find a fan video of it on You Tube. Great reaction, as usual. It was the same reaction I had the first time I heard it. WTH is happening? How can anything be this fantastic and so different??!! lol

    Adam's arrangement of this Christmas classic is IMHO the absolutely best rendition I've ever heard and I've listened to many, from church choirs, single artists and other acapella groups that were good but this one no matter how many times I listen to it sends shivers all over my body.
    Wishing you the most wonderful holiday season ever. Thank you for joy you bring us with every reaction.

  • @timworks991
    @timworks991 9 місяців тому +6

    Absolutely loved your reactions throughout this. One of the things which is so amazing about Home Free is not just their musical skills as singers, their ranges and ability to harmonize so well but their technical skill as well. Their arrangements are as amazing as anything else they do and elevates their music to a level above everyone else. As you listen to other reactors who are themselves well trained in the technical side of music and they point out the particular choices that are made in chords, timing and other aspects of the arrangement you really come to appreciate all the more the level of skill and talent they bring to everything they do. Even their "Funny" songs. Always looking forward to your next reaction.
