![FIRST TIME REACTING TO | Home Free - Colder Weather [Home Free's Version]](http://i.ytimg.com/vi/nOgkrq1bPaQ/mqdefault.jpg)
Rob wasn't off pitch. He sings it the same way in the video. Judges were just ticked because they only wanted Austin and Tim to lead.
We are SO happy they broke the rules!!!
Rob has perfect pitch. The only time he sings off key is on purpose when he's playing around.
I never heard a difference in pitch. I think they “had” to be critical somewhere along the line and they decided to do it to Rob. Good rendition. 🤩😀
There was another reactor/producer who loaded this song into some pitch-adjusting software, and it totally did not ping as needing any tuning.
Don't forget, if they want high notes they can also have Tim do it. 🤣❤
Meh -_-
I’m guarding myself from Jeremy throwing hands after this one!
You really need to watch Colder Weather-Memory Lapse!! It’s about two minutes long and I watch it probably once per week.
Hey Carol!! Jeremy did this six months ago when the channel was new. Maybe we should rewatch it now that we are true Fries?!?! Here it is, when you have time: ua-cam.com/video/tNbUi4e9kBA/v-deo.htmlsi=5bg-N2JWR1QLjEXW
Always makes me laugh!
@@musikbyjh If you haven't seen their studio version of the song, the official video, you should react to that first, then the Memory Lapse version. it helps to really know the song well (especially Tim's part) to appreciate what happens live.
@@musikbyjh Oops! I had forgotten that.
I thought they did a fabulous job on this song. I didn't notice any pitch or nervousness problems. Think the judges were just being picky because the producers didn't want to have Rob take lead on this. They redid the song Colder Weather a few years later when Chance joined & it is just beautiful.
Same!! ❤️🥷🏻
I loved this performance. Rob’s voice is phenomenal. Nuff said.
It’s funny. Most people don’t know Rob’s actually a baritone. But he has a phenomenal range.
This is one of my absolute HF songs. I never get tired of listening to it.
This one was the one that they had surprised HF with as a song choice made for them. and yes HF broke the rules and gave it to Rob to lead off . I think most of that "rare nervousness" was also lack of time to flush it out as fully as they normally would. They were told this is the song and we want Tim and Austin on it and HF just said nope it has to be Rob. Good for them. Too bad the time constraints happened and that in order to create drama for the show this was sprung on them. They pulled it off anyway and Home Fries Love it. so great big Raspberries to TV Producers.
Perfectly said! I wish I could like this more than once!
I totally agreed with the judges too. Yes, Jillian this was the time they went against the judges. It was still a beautiful performance. I enjoyed watching your reactions to this song.
Make sure to do I'm Alright!
They almost lost for letting Rob take the lead on this one. The show kept trying to push Rob into the background, but the boys said the people gotta hear Rob. Little did the show know how many people would claim Rob as their spirit animal. ♥
Hey Ally! Oh my, this one was NOT on my (Jillian) radar as one of their Sing-Off performances and I didn't have in the lineup. Is it worth adding and filming this week?! ❤️🥷🏻
@@musikbyjhAbsolutely add it to the lineup.
100% it’s a must to watch!
@@musikbyjh Yes, Home Free and Philharmonics were two of the best teams, and their mashup was the highlight of the show. It's a must see! At the time I wanted them both to win.
I'm Alright is a really great performance... not only a Sing off, but a "Beat Off" 😂😂😂 IYKYK
I respect your opinion Jeremy, you are a professional, so I trust you. I as a casual, and a big fan of Home Free just didn't hear it...then again I'm just a casual....next up they just released this song, I Want Crazy as redo video, and it's now my favorite video....Tim goes sub-Human here I can't wait for you & Miss Gillian's reactions
Jeremy, you're the first reactor I've heard who agrees with the judges about Rob. I have yet to hear it, and I've listened to it many times. But, I really respect your opinion on this. As a sound engineer, you KNOW about the sound quality of music. I've watched the performances (of this episode) of the other three, and the judges were critical of all four groups. Two of the groups had to be in the Ultimate Sing-Off and was eliminated. Home Free was never in the bottom two, so Rob's so-called flub did not put them in the bottom two. (The Ultimate Sing-Off with Filharmonic was mandatory for all 6 groups, with two eliminated. This is where Voice Play was eliminated. 😢)
Definitely do Colder Memory Lapse, so funny 😂
He did 😁 I requested it awhile back 😊
I still think the judges were not entirely happy with the instructions to highlight only Austin and Tim. I don't know if it was judges or the producers who initiated the favoritism, but neither Shawn nor Ben dwelt long on their criticism, and Jewel didn't mention the pitch at all. Maybe I'm wrong. Whatever, obviously, (and I have a good, trained ear) Rob did not go flat, and Austin was dealt the more dramatic verse. Thank you for standing up for our guys -- after all, they did win!
I absolutely love this song. They were all so good. you ought to show Jillian Tim's solo Will You Still Love Me Tomorrow/Stay. I know you have heard it but it will blow her mind! Love your reactions!
I'll say this ... and it's 2 things! (haha) ....... Rob done it the way intended -- and it was excellent! HF choose Rob because he was the best fit for it (it's their way!). Judges and Production retaliating due to HF's stance on Rob ... That was just wrong (strongarming tactic). Nerves and LIVE -- yah ... but that is the rawness of it. As an outside entity, you don't get to choose who or how --- you just give them what!!! ----- I back HF 100% and their choice! (oh, and Rob is still the guy yet today on that song!) : ) Be Safe
I agree that you must react to the caddy shack song.
Rob really "stands out " in that one!!😂
Coming!! I didn't make the connection that the song "I'm alright" was the collab w/ Filharmonic. We definitely have this lined up for next FrYday, promise! ❤️🥷🏻
And the new version of this on the As Seen on TV album is fantastic!
😂😂 he really does stand out 😂😂
"Best use of beard!" 😂
@@wolfe6220 🤣🤣
Thanks for reacting. Regarding Rob's performance, as much as I try, I can't hear him off pitch.
Me neither, Glenda!! ❤️,🥷🏻
One of the hardest things is to start a song cold turkey, that’s exactly what he had to do. The song was slow in the beginning and no beat underneath Robs vocals and the low ooohs under him. To me, though he may have been nervous I thought I heard the pitch wavering in the harmony parts! Hard slow start that was supposed to not be flashy but Rob started it exactly as it should have been started! Great job, new subscriber! Have y’all listened to Do you hear what I hear! It’s an Adam Rupp arrangement. Low bass Kenneth
I thought they did a great job then, but their 10th anniversary rendition is even better!! Looking forward to seeing your reaction to that one in the near future. #HomeFree never disappoints!
During the judges' comments, following each performance, recall the guys usually being fairly upbeat, smiley, especially Austin given the neverending praise and accolades. He maintains a fairly stern expression, here. My sense is that Rob finally had a chance to be out front by the guys going against the producer's plans, which netted him a bit of negative feedback which, then, quickly had them focusing their attention back on Austin. I imagine Austin thinking 'Enough already!' The show misspelled Rob's last name in the graphics and never saw fit to correct it. Even after HF won the season, Chris...the founding member of the group!...ended up receiving ZERO acknowledgements from the judges.
A crying shame. As much as I love seeing these performances, we definitely do NOT enjoy the politics!!
While I agree there was some nervousness in Rob's voice, I don't hear pitchy. I'd be nervous too though given the fact that the show didn't want him to sing lead. 🤷🍟
Right?! Same here, Denise!! ❤️🥷🏻
Exactly 💯 maybe he wouldn't have been nervous if they weren't playing favorites
The best thing tho is that Rob ended up doing the lead for Boys II men End of the road! Soooo suck it Shawn! 🤣🤣🤷♀️
YOU TELL HIM, RUTH!!!!!! We've got your back, girlfriend!!! 💪🏽❤️🥷🏻
@@musikbyjh 😅🥰🥰🤗
Shawn gave Home Free “permission” to do End of the Road
@@jillchamberlain6478 I know 😊
With the politics going on behind the scenes and the guys insisting on Rob, I can understand his nervousness. And if you watch close, when they show his face after Sean talks, you can see by the look on Rob's face that he is thinking they may have lost because of this one song and the groups insistence that it be him in the lead. He looks sad and almost heartbroken. Pressure like that, I can understand a slight nervousness. The politics were bad behind the scenes I guess. Tim said in an interview that at one point, the judges were taking a long time to make their decision. Longer than usual and it was because the producers wanted one group to go home but that group had performed brilliantly that night. The judges essentially said "We can't send them home after that." The producers also kept trying to get the groups to trash talk each other which didn't work. They had to take comments that were jokes and turn them into what they wanted. Either way, I am a BIG Rob and Rupp supporter! Us Minnesotans have to stick together! LOL
Yes! The look on Robs face broke my heart 😕 he probably felt like he let them down. Ugh 😔 Austin looked a little irritated too, like he didn't like them picking on Rob. Lol idk that's just my thoughts
I agree that this wasnt Rob's best but remember dont compair this performance to what he sounds like now-10 years later. Good reaction, thanks
Hmmmm, me thinks that Jillian is not just a Home Fry, but a Super Home Fry (I recognize the tell tail signs). I STILL LOVED THIS SONG! But no one is perfect, not even the judges. I also get a chuckle from the byplay between the two of you. I look forward to Home Free Fridays. Jeremy, I have, over my vast years of family diversity been exposed to the full spectrum of music genres. Being the youngest member of the household I was at the lowest priority for getting air time for my preferences. I have noticed a whole lot of crossover between pop, easy listening, jazz, blues, and country. It is getting harder and harder to definitively classify much of the current music scene. Hash tags are getting longer and longer. I am guessing that HF has stretch your boundaries on music to check out. I also think you enjoy riling Jillian up. You get that look in you eye that is both playful and mischievous. You guys crack me up. ☺
Joy - this comment was GREAT, thank you!! You make us laugh recognizing our playful banter. It's good to hear it's not sickening, LOL! We definitely love and have fun with each other!! Also, agree with you on the crossover coming into the scene. And this is YOUR TIME FOR AIR TIME, Joy!! Blast it, fellow Fry!!!
You gotta watch both the official video they did for this song and the newest one called Home Free's version❕❗
😊 Everytime i hear this song. I think of Austin forgetting the words.
Memory lapse version?! So funny!!
Oh, and that Tim comment about Nick Lachey, "Gosh darnit, he's pretty!" That wasn't a one-off comment. There were a few sprinkled throughout the season.
AHHHH...ok!!! I see what you mean!
This is such a beautiful song.
There she is!!! We've missed you, Nancy!
I loved Rob in the lead. I think having him here as the lead was the right decision. No worries though, I still respect your opinion and look forward to future reactions. I love your energy and chemistry online. Keep on keeping on!
I think it was more the producers than the judges. In every season, it seemed that they wanted only one (or maybe 2) lead people in each group. Also, with identifying them as the country group, they can edit it in a way that appeals to certain voting demographics. In other words, just like all reality shows, it is molded by Hollywood-ization. As much as that is true of this show, I honestly thing it is more real than most of the competition shows. I would largely chalk that up to the judges being as good as they are. They (the judges) always try to give each group something to work on each week - even when the performance is really good, and they are experts in their fields, too, so their comments aren't just fluff. I have seen videos of live versions of this song from Home Free post sing-off, and they are beautiful.
More evidence that Rob was discouraged from Rob taking the lead.
Don't like it ONE.SINGLE.BIT!!! #letRobshine!
Kinda reminds me that the only way they would let HF on the show this time was if they agreed to be known as the "country acapella" group. Tim was pretty much dead set against it, after having to write country songs for a living. Austin was willing to do it. The other guys didnt really have anything against country, but they weren't particularly thrilled. So Tim agreed.
It worked out okay, but it still burns my brisket...
Same!! SO much!! TORCHED our brisket!!! ❤️,🥷🏻
The Sing Off...judge wise was a Tim and Austin love fest.
Yeah, we aren't fans of this favoritism (exclusion) at ALL!! ❤️,🥷🏻
I can understand Rob being nervous because there were only 4 groups left and when you are put out there when you haven't been before you gotta be thinking what if I mess this up? But also I think the judges called Rob out on his minute flaw and had something to say about Austin hitting high notes because they really have not had anything bad to say about the Home Free performances and the other groups have been hearing good and bad about their performances, but Home Free heard nothing bad from the judges because they were so good, so this might have scared Home free a little bit but It really wasn't such a big criticism overall.
You can go back a 100 times and listen to Rob and he definitely is NOT off pitch. Just a bunch of political crap. Rob is the best singer out of the whole group Just ask the group who can sing the best. Jmo. Thank y’all so much for the video.
Great reaction yall.
Rob was nervous. He just didn't sell it. I was really afraid of you all hearing this because I knew you would KNOW that. But I think it's important for you to watch this. You know what Rob can do now, and you were surprised at this. Remember, this was the very beginning. Rob now (just an opinion) is the most learned musician of the group. As a singer, he he seems to me to have relative/perfect pitch, and he always keeps the boys in line. I think he is the leader that no fans ever look at, but the guys do, because they know. If you look at the behind-the-scenes stuff, the boys follow him, every time. Watch Austin look at him for cues in Nessun Dorma. They literally follow him every time, for good reason. I would follow Rob over everyone else.
ASIDE: I think with Austin, and the comments he had from the judges, he had that young confidence that people are drawn to, so he gets commented on more. Youth is a selling point for these types of shows. Rob doesn't shine here. It's "shone" btw - yes, Jeremy.
But Rob is much more confident now. I still think after this one, the judges loved their performance and rallied for them. And then they won. By the way, Jeremy, you already reacted to the one where Austin forgot the words (best thing ever - That's the Colder Memory Lapse that people are talking about.) For this performance, you were right. Hate to say it, but this is literally t
he only Home Free performance that left me disappointed.
AHHHHH, Dani!! Although you and Jer are right, I just can't stand that the judges don't know how amazing Rob is...whether it's nerves, older (wiser) humility, or what...we know how amazing he is. Wouldn't it be epic if these same judges did a reaction video to Nessun Dorma?!?! Hugs! ❤️🥷🏻
Wouldn't it, indeed? I think the judges knew already, but just couldn't say on TV. I don't know. But I will say Shaun from Boyz II Men actually helped them with their "End of the Road cover.
You HAVE to listen to Colder Weather Memory Lapse…. It’s great, and very funny
Hey Jill!! Jeremy did this one early on in our channel, here you go: ua-cam.com/video/tNbUi4e9kBA/v-deo.htmlsi=B4w8hJ3tjRtJhJFy We may listen again (together) at some point...very highly requested!!! Thank you for the suggestion! ❤️🥷🏻
Now you have to find and watch the live version that goes totally off the rails!
Hey Diana!! Jer did this early on in the channel, maybe 6 mos ago. It's a hoot!
If you haven’t already done, make sure to check out their cover of N’Sync’s Bye Bye Bye. They prepared it for the show but didn’t get to or need to do it.
Thanks, Jack!! Jeremy's done this one, but we didn't know the backstory about the song being prepared for Sing-Off. Thanks for the info!! ❤️🥷🏻 Here's Bye Bye Bye when you have time: ua-cam.com/video/EUtFaZwVyWM/v-deo.html
The story goes the producers wanted all lead songs to be either Austin or Tim. HF believed in Rob and wanted him to sing lead on this song. The producers did not appreciate Robs talent and did not give him any chance and wanted the judges to find fault. To me that is such a baby move by the producers.
YOU ARE THE EXTRA DIMENSION.
Oh my...thank you? 😂✌🏽
I do think you can hear the nervousness in Rob's voice. It was painful knowing what he can do. But Rob is human and all of these guys get pitchy and don't sound perfect now and then. It's just that the stakes were really high here. I don't like this either Ya'll. I do believe Rob is really coming into his own in the past few years. His gorgeous voice can't be missed in more recent years performances.
Go back and listen to the stuff before the signoff - Rob has been magnificent all along - Check out his "All I Want for Christmas is You" or his "Joy to the World" on the red Christmas album, or there is video of Joy - "Home Free.Joy to the World.Hosanna Concert (Dec 2013)"
@@nancyholter5646 ...i believe you, Nancy. Adore Rob and his voice. I do think he might have been nervous and tentitive. But I know what he can do with his voice. He's amazing for sure.
New HF alert! Xmas in LA just dropped.
We saw that, but haven't listened!!! Thinking we should do a live stream of the whole thing. What say you?!
@musikbyjh In an interview once I heard the guys talk about how hard the competition was on their voices and how they had started having problems. 8+ hours a day, every day, for 6 or more weeks even if the “non-musical viewer” might not have noticed. That could have contributed to some of the sound of Rob’s voice. I understand it could have also been a style choice. (So glad they bucked the system and Rob sang.)
I may be wrong.....Home Fries can correct me....but I think.....when they are onstage, doing it live.....Chance takes the lead in this. Rob backs him up.
The versions I've heard since Adam Chance joined is that Rob starts, then Chance goes with the next line, then Austin and Tim. Rob finishes up.
I’m not a musician in any way shape or form……but the first time I heard this, I thought that Rob was nervous…..a little tentative…..a little off. I absolutely love love love Rob.
I think Rob was very nervous because he didn't normally sing lead and the start was a little shaky but he settled down and nailed it.
Our poor dude, Rob. I wish they could see how good he really is.
Do a pitch analysis on this one, please. I can’t hear it.
This pissed me off, the first time I watched it.
Welcome to Arizona.
I live outside Snowflake Az.
Right?! You KNOW I (JIllian) was ticked. Hey, thanks for the warm welcome!!! Stay warm in Snowflake, Cora!! We drove from Flagstaff to Sedona to Glibert today, and experienced three different climates. It was AWESOME and one of the reasons we love AZ!! ❤️,🥷🏻
We live outside Snowflake.
But not as high in elevation as Flagstaff.
But it is cold. We have been getting snow.
We live totally off the grid. Which I love.
Love that, Cora. Maybe we can pick your brain someday on that. Our 5-10 year goal is to have a big piece of property away from everything. lol!
@musikbyjh
Any time.
The best thing is to find a place way away from any big city.
I live 4 hours away from Phoenix each way & 3 hours away from Flagstaff.
I do have to drive to each place for some of my medical care.
If you are willing to live off the grid, there are places like where we live. Land goes for about $5,000.00 an acre if you buy 40 acres.
You will also have to drill a well for your water. But it is yours & you don't have to share.
Solar costs are about $25,000.00 for the start up.
But there are some governments that help on doing solar.
But when you stop & think about it, it's a 1 time cost & you never have to pay for water or power again.
I think that Rob sounded great, but it wasn’t a true spotlight for him. He does better leads all the time. Still love it. ❤️🎶
Rob goes just a bit sharp on one of the notes at the very beginning. You really have to listen for it. Other than that it was Rob solid all the way.
I'm with YOU, Matthew!!! ❤️🥷🏻
I agree with Jeremy. I love Rob's voice but he was not a stand out in this performance. As much as i hated to agree with the judges on the critique of Rob, i agreed back then and now.
Rob's voice seemed a little hesitant at the beginning, to me. I think Sean was right. Rob's voice is always good, but he was "a guy who can sing" at first...not his most super fabulous performance. But that's ok, he was probably nervous as hell.
Jeremey I think you’re full of it! Rob was great and there wasn’t any nervousness in his voice. The judges only wanted to hear from Tim and Austin and didn’t like that they didn’t go with what they wanted.
Copy that!
This was my least favorite of the Home Free performances. Their official recording is so much better.
I was watching from the eastern half of the US. It did not sound this good on my tv system when it was live. There was pitchiness and they didn’t nail all the chords.
