The best song to see more of Adam clearly is _"God Bless the USA"._ They stand in a line with camera pans and few jump cuts, but he isn't doing any crazy vocal acrobats. _"Try Everything"_ shows a little more than others, not by much, but there is more variety and his expressions are purposefully exaggerated.
The guys chose to sing this in its original key--as sung by Cam. Just proves their lack of having a female in the group is no detriment--they just let their profundo BASS handle it! 🤣 LOVE the versatility of our amazingly talented fellas!! 🥰. (The addition of Chance and his lower range to the group has freed Tim up to showcase his amazing 5-octave range a lot more!) Every member of Home Free could absolutely be a solo ⭐ star ⭐ but their harmonies together are MAGIC!! ❣️🎼🥰🎶❤️
A really fun one that Adam Rupp absolutely has a ball in is "Listen to the Music." He gets to show off a whole slew of sounds beyond the drum kit and the 'no-monica.
And Tim says Adam Rupp has a bigger or wider range than Tim does. I love the way they are able to switch around because they all have such incredible talent
LMAO. Great review Ginger. Laughing because us Home FRies always want people to wait before hearing this one. You can see why. You have to hear Rob singing End of The Road if you want soulful. Thanks for the enjoyable reaction and refrershing my love for this song and this incredible and underrated band.
Great reaction Ginger! Was laughing at your initial comment re Tim’s bass - we were all here thinking… wait for it! 😂 Their skill and versatility make them able to sing just about anything! Please add My Church, Love Train and Can’t Stop the Feeling to your list, and another great one for Adam is Workin’ for a Livin’! Home Free never disappoints!
Since I Don’t Have You is another great one to show off his range. In My Room is the other one he has a UA-cam video for. His whole album is great! I also love his pre-Home Free cover of Can’t Help Falling in Love.
I'm a big fan of Home Free and have seen them live a couple of times. I loved this reaction to Mayday, especially to Tim's and Chance's vocals, because Ginger's was precisely my reaction on first hearing.
Home Free are so very awesome. Tim has a 5-octave range. Chance does baritone and bass. Adam's percussion is flawless. Austin's voice is always beautiful as is Rob's. Absolutely love your reaction!
Just about everyone got to surprise you in this song...except the Ruppster. But he has his shot in his drum solo vids, the live "Guilty Pleasures (Derailed)" vid and a really special Xmas one "Do you Hear What I Hear"... And don't forget, there are a lot of funny BTS episodes and ones where you meet their families and visit their childhood homes...
We'll never lead you astray on HF videos/ songs. Thanks for waiting! (Still snickering at the comment that you couldn't wait to hear Tim's bass! 😂) Yes, watch the guys' hand movements. Tim self-directs; you can tell how low he's singing by how low his hand is. (He held his hand above his waist for Mayday. In Brothers In Arms, his arm is almost fully extended down.) Adam is usually animated, playing his invisible drum kit. Austin is a bundle of energy!
I love the way Tim self-directs - his hands tell what his voice is doing and where it's going. Think of My Maria with he and Austin. And you can tell from Chance's body language and expression that his role here is to run the bass line.
I watched an analysis reactor break this down, and he got into changes in location, lighting, etc. There was more than I expected going on in the background even though it is subtle to those of us who watch casually.
Oh Ginger, your appreciation for Home Free is amazing! Now to side trail down Tim’s and Austin’s solo songs on each of their pages! I know you will enjoy them!!!❤❤❤❤
I felt the same way the first time I heard this song. Surprised that Tim could sing like that. Then to find Chance going that far in the lower register. They are all amazing. Thanks for a great reaction.
This song is one of my favorites. So glad you waited to react to it. Your surprise at hearing the switch ups in the voices was great. Tim can sing in a beautiful higher tenor voice along with Austin & Rob. And Chance can hit the lower bass notes when needed. And Adam did a fabulous job as always with his vocal percussion. This song is sung by a woman Cam, so they sung it in a higher key to match the original.
They did this in the same key as Cam. Chance was the bass in the previous group he was in. Tim has helped and encouraged him to extend his range since joining Home Free. All of the acapella basses tend to share techniques and help each other extend their vocals ranges.
Home Free defies labels and this song lays it all out there. Almost as if they responded to people who think they only sing country by making this pop sounding song. And to those who think the guys can only sing in their set ranges...let's turn that idea on its head! So many switch ups in here. I know what you mean though about watching Adam. This is one you have to watch him because he does something I never noticed at first. It's the clap sounds. You hear claps but no one is clapping. But if you watch Adam, he is doing something at those moments when you hear the "claps". He is making that sound! It's funny but when Adam sings, he stands still but when he does his thing, he moves. It's the movements of his hands you have to watch to catch what he is doing.
Perfect fun reaction! Now that you've enjoyed Mayday, next is Misty Mountain to enjoy Tim's dragon growl then his masterpiece Will you still love me tomorrow/Stay. Your world will never be the same.
I love the call and response section best. Of course, the whole song is calling one to listen again and again. The making of this is also great from HF"s VAULT.
I think my favorite Home Free song for Tim is an older one. It’s a mash up of “Thinking Out Loud” and “Let’s Get it On”. Second only to Sweet and Low’s “My Maria”. But “Mayday” is top five Home Free song overall. Love Adam on this one especially.
I think they did this song just to mess with us. They all are singing out of their usual ranges. Now you know where that bass was coming from, it was CHANCE!!! This is my favorite song and I love how minimalistic this video is so you can focus on the singers and what they are doing. Thanks for your reaction.
I appreciate that you mention Cam. Her version is well worth mentioning and listening to. When Tim does lead, as we see/hear here, Chance covers the bass. Thank you for exploring these exceptional talents.
This is so good. I don't know how many times I've seen this and I still hear new stuff. Love it when the guys get to stompin'. I can't remember if you've reacted to their cover of Listen to the Music, but we do get more Adam in that one.
Adam has an older video and a more recent one ! I believe both were recorded by someone in the audience , but they are both well done ! The second one Adam is using a loop setup in the first of it, but it's still all him !!
Expect the unexpected from Home Free! There are no boundaries for their talent. I’m so glad you enjoyed this video. Like you, I too am easily distracted by movement, so this is a good one for a reaction. Thanks so much for your input ❤
Glad you know enough about them now to be able to understand the switchup of hearing Tim's high notes and Chance's low bass notes. Before joining Home Free Chance was the bass in his old group "Street Corner Symphony" so he can sing bass and often does background bass and does the bass when Tim is singing lead. I love how they are so versatile, it's just amazing to me. When Tim and Chance sing harmony bass together, it seriously sounds like a church organ to me. A good example would be the Hymn song "How Great Thou Art" Also Adam does a few words of solo singing in the song.
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. ❣
Tim Foust Will You Still Love Me Tomorrow /Stay, In my Room. Peter Hollen and Tim Sound of Silence, Misty Mountain, Greensleeves, Bridge, over trouble water
What an enjoyable and thoughtful reaction! Congrats on the growth of your channel. There is a reason why it is growing so fast, you are a good reactor. Another mindblowing video is on Austin's channel, well several to be honest. My Maria and 2 Country singers Try Singing Opera.
And this is why you have to get familiar with the group before seeing this one. Tim has a 5 octave range. Chance has at least a 4 octave range. It really is the total versatility of everyone in this group that makes them so special.
This cover song by Home Free really showcases the versatility and range of the HF members! I was blown away also the first time hearing this one lol I just wanted to suggest another song and video of theirs for you to check out and that is a cover song called Amazed. It was originally done by Lonestar in 1999 and was an instant hit! Even Home Free's video with this song is pretty cool and a bit sweet too! I am willing to bet that you will like this one a lot, of course you can't go wrong with any HF music lol Love love love our Home Free boys!
If you want to hear Tim range you have to go to his personal page and watch the Video " Will you still love me tomorrow/ stay. It is A capella but with Tim singing all the parts. Will blow you away. Plus it is some good old 60's music.
Tim released a solo album called “Pieces of Me” where he does all vocals, and it’s a doo-wop album. You should listen to “Will You Still Love Me/Stay” now that you’ve heard him on “Mayday”
Glad I got to see your surprise at this one and glad you heeded our recommendation to hold off seeing it until you were more familiar with the group. Yes, the group has some surprises that we're able to discover through the videos, interviews, and history of their activities. If a reactor researches a group, they may spoil their reaction a little. When you revealed that you listened to Cam's original I got a little worried that it might spoil things for you. Thanks for your reaction Ginger!
Perfect reaction!! HF at their finest!! I always smile and giggle before the song begins when the reactor says how much they're looking forward to hearing Tim's bass, when I know what's coming. 😄 Don't we all! And then there's Chance! Even though I was already familiar with his bass because I loved him in Street Corner Symphony, I was still shook! 😄 I'm so glad you waited until you were more familiar with the group so you could really enjoy the song in every way possible! Many don't and I always feel they cheat themselves. Cam gave them a shout-out for this. She saw them at the CMA's and knew it was coming so she was looking forward to it. A lot of the original artists have given them shout-outs for their covers which I think is very cool! - You're right about their videos being so engaging. I always have to watch the video twice when released. Once for the video, then another just to listen. LOL! One of their hardest to watch is "Brother". It's a beau~tiful song and they sing it so well, but the video is sooo fun!! You really need to play that one and turn away from the video to actually focus on the song - if you can!! 😄 Loved this reaction!!
They did this in the same key as Cam did. You may have heard Tim's high range in the past without knowing it. Often when there is a harmony/background line higher than Austin's, Tim sings it. Other times it might be Adam. Love me Like That is one where Tim has the high(est) line in the background. in How Great Thou Art, every one of them, with the possible exception of Chance, contribute to the high BV tone. Bringing Chance in really opened up the doors for a variety of things - it freed Tim up to sing higher parts because Chance can easily cover the bass, it gives tremendous power when they BOTH are 'being basses", and he might not have quite as high an upper limit as Tim does, but he is a respectable tenor, too.
With absolutely no disrespect to all of the amazing A Capella groups out there, but in my humble opinion, Home Free is both individually & collectively the most "versatile" Vocal Band on the planet!!!
Hi Ginger! Just about the time you think you have them figured out they drop something else on ya! They are definitely amazing. If you would like to hear Tim's range a little more take a listen to Snow Globe and then check out his solo do wop songs. He does all the parts himself in those. Have a great day!
Fun fact, Tim started singing tenor. When I asked him at a concert what the key was to singing bass, he said learn tenor, and sing it well. It really helps you control your bass.
Their From the Vault Episode 19 covers the making of this video. If you haven't seen any of that series it's what I call the camera behind the camera. At time you do see the director and Jimmy, their cameraman at work. You also see the goofy stuff that goes on while making another fabulous video. These videos are scheduled to be released one on the first Monday of the month but that don't always work. (Number 23 was supposed to drop last Tuesday, with Monday being a holiday, but no-go. Booooo!) If you haven't see their video for Crosby Stills & Nash's Helplessly Hoping yet please put in on your list. There's no beatboxing. Adam joins in on their wonderful harmonies. Avicii's Wake Me Up is another one of my favorites. You get kind of a closeup of Adam's mouth, jaw, and throat while he's doing his thing. And that's one video that you don't cut off when the song is over. They add a little funny thing at the end, something they're known for. Sometimes is a message for us, sometimes it's a little bit of their outtakes (like in Butts Remix/Medley). Always assume there's something there, with Home Free, Austin Brown, Time Foust, and VoicePlay.
G - Thanks for waiting and for checking out the original before reacting to HF's cover! It's so sad when we see reactors dive into "Mayday" before they're "sure" they know who's going to do what parts! 🙂 This is one of those songs you'll want to enjoy again and again...and you'll also want to listen to Cam do the original occasionally. Once, I opened two browser windows and loaded Cam in one and HF in the other...and they almost synchronize when you run both at the same time. You can definitely tell that they're in the same key!
Most people haven't heard Tim telling the story that in high school he was a tenor!!!! Adam Chance is doing the bass. In fact, he auditioned with Pentatonix when their original bass, Avi Kaplan, left in 2017. If you react to Home Free's 'Ring of Fire', Avi is featured in it. And usually people find Home Free from watching Pentatonix. Looking at your song lists, you may be going against the normal path. You need to watch Pentatonix. Most people start with their version of Hallelujah. But all of their songs are amazing. And both groups won different season of The Sing Off.
Check out Tim "Will you still love me/Stay" for him just showing off that monstrous range. You'll not be disappointed. Great reaction as always. And congrats in the ads... we love that we contributed to the success of your channel.
Thank you so much for your support! As for the ads, I get none of that even though I am "officially monetized". I only have two videos (not Home Free) up that have a revenue share agreement. But, the money does go to the band/ producer, so that's good. Again, thanks so much!
Tim is a basso profundo, but unlike a vast majority of them, has a five octave range. Chance is more of what most people think of as a bass, but also has a great range.
When Chance left Steet Corner Symphony to replace Chris Rupp, the advantage was that Chance could take over the bass while Tim sang lead or joined in three part harmony with Austin and Rob. As you watch more Home Free you can tell when Chance or Tim joins in the tenor baritone trio, and the other does the lyric or rhythm bass. Tim and Chance will often switch within a song. Both Tim and Chance have relatively high ranges that blend well with the tenors. Also, while Chance only did bass with his former group, it also allows him to do lead. Neither bass does bass the same way. You can tell Chance sounds different from Tim. In addition, high level accapella bass singers tend to have large ranges, just like Avi Kaplan and Geoff Castellucci. About this performance. Home Free did it in the same key as Cam.
I know if I was a singer and had songs that were popular I would find it a privilege and be completely flattered if HomeFree were to do their version of my music or would even want to collaborate with them on anything old or new - yea crazy fan here lol lol lol
I'm so happy you reacted to this and picked up very quickly on all the reason Home Fries told you to wait for it! Your reaction was awesome! It is one of our very favorites. Just subscribed.
Great reaction ! one of the things I think this song demonstrates is how much versatility the addition of Chance to the group brought. They can do more than they used to (no disrespect intended to Chris Rupp).
So glad you knew their voices as we’ve had new people check this out and they think Tim is the tenor and we have to say no, he’s the bass! It’s the old switcheroo with Tim singing tenor and Chance singing bass (although he can sing bass too). Chance can sing low but just not as low as Tim. This showcases everyone and it’s a good one. Yeah Tim was just showing some of his 5 octave range for ya. There’s a fun one called Snowglobe that Tim wrote where he sings high and it’s very good - maybe more appropriate for the Christmas season. Good reaction Ginger!!! Love your reactions! 🥰
If you want to get a good feel for Tims's range I would suggest: "Will you still love me tomorrow" by Tim Foust. Amazingly great....As is this whole band....best voices ever.
I think your next Home Free video should be “When a Man Loves a Woman.” I listen to mostly Americana, but I think the most extraordinary performance I’ve ever heard is Tom Jones singing “I’ll Never Fall in Love Again” live on the Ed Sullivan Show. Long before auto tune and it’s perfect!
Yes ...Tim's voice I think has a full 4 active range, not many that sing can do that. They all switched around in this song a little bit. Adam Chance is doing bass in this one. They do this in some songs, feature someone in the lead. So talented they are.............Home Fry Forever...
![WHOA! WHAT? ~ "Will You Still Love Me/ Stay" by Tim Foust [REACTION]](http://i.ytimg.com/vi/hFrhlNRDiEM/mqdefault.jpg)
I loved what you said about singing along with HomeFree. It really is fun. Do it probably every day. Lifts me up.
All of us Home Fries snickered when you said I see Tim is up first -- speaking of his bass voice!
Hahaha! :)
Chance gets everyone on that bass drop.....he was sunch a great addition to the group in May of 2016
Absolutely!
Yes! Chance is so underrated! He has an amazing voice but seldom gets the credit he deserves.
I smiled when you said you can't wait to hear Tim because of his bass 😅❤
😄😄😄
😂😂❤
Hahaha! Totally caught me off guard. What a wonderful surprise I received :)
I couldn't just smile, I had to laugh!!😅
@@DiamondRioFan1 🤣🤣
You MUST react to 'When a men loves a woman' by Home Free. Please! It's amazing!!! 😊
Check out Snow Globe to hear more of Tim's vocal range. He wrote the song.
The best song to see more of Adam clearly is _"God Bless the USA"._ They stand in a line with camera pans and few jump cuts, but he isn't doing any crazy vocal acrobats. _"Try Everything"_ shows a little more than others, not by much, but there is more variety and his expressions are purposefully exaggerated.
Enjoy your disbelief! Caught you off guard. 😊
Yes it did!!! :)
When they added Chance, it gave Tim an opportunity to expand his lead singing. Chance picks up the bass when Tim sings.
The guys chose to sing this in its original key--as sung by Cam. Just proves their lack of having a female in the group is no detriment--they just let their profundo BASS handle it! 🤣
LOVE the versatility of our amazingly talented fellas!! 🥰. (The addition of Chance and his lower range to the group has freed Tim up to showcase his amazing 5-octave range a lot more!) Every member of Home Free could absolutely be a solo ⭐ star ⭐ but their harmonies together are MAGIC!! ❣️🎼🥰🎶❤️
"...just let their profundo bass handle it". I love that!!! So true! 😂👍
A really fun one that Adam Rupp absolutely has a ball in is "Listen to the Music." He gets to show off a whole slew of sounds beyond the drum kit and the 'no-monica.
Tim’s range always blows me away. There is just so much talent in Home Free.
And Tim says Adam Rupp has a bigger or wider range than Tim does. I love the way they are able to switch around because they all have such incredible talent
LMAO. Great review Ginger. Laughing because us Home FRies always want people to wait before hearing this one. You can see why. You have to hear Rob singing End of The Road if you want soulful. Thanks for the enjoyable reaction and refrershing my love for this song and this incredible and underrated band.
Great reaction Ginger!
Was laughing at your initial comment re Tim’s bass - we were all here thinking… wait for it! 😂
Their skill and versatility make them able to sing just about anything!
Please add My Church, Love Train and Can’t Stop the Feeling to your list, and another great one for Adam is Workin’ for a Livin’!
Home Free never disappoints!
If you want to really hear Tim's range, listen to his solo performances of Will You Still Love Me Tomorrow/Stay and Come Go With Me.
Since I Don’t Have You is another great one to show off his range. In My Room is the other one he has a UA-cam video for. His whole album is great! I also love his pre-Home Free cover of Can’t Help Falling in Love.
definitely!!!
Ouch! Wait 'til she hears his real high range...
Thanks, I will!
And My Maria on Austin's channel ❤
Now you understand why the wait Chance was the bass in the group he came from.
I'm a big fan of Home Free and have seen them live a couple of times. I loved this reaction to Mayday, especially to Tim's and Chance's vocals, because Ginger's was precisely my reaction on first hearing.
Chance sang bass in his last group Street Corner Symphony
Chance arranged this song and he was the bass singer for his previous group Street Corner Symphony.
Home Free are so very awesome. Tim has a 5-octave range. Chance does baritone and bass. Adam's percussion is flawless. Austin's voice is always beautiful as is Rob's. Absolutely love your reaction!
Look through their videos, there are times Adam Rupp is spotlighted. These guys are all amazing!! Go Home Free!!
Just about everyone got to surprise you in this song...except the Ruppster. But he has his shot in his drum solo vids, the live "Guilty Pleasures (Derailed)" vid and a really special Xmas one "Do you Hear What I Hear"...
And don't forget, there are a lot of funny BTS episodes and ones where you meet their families and visit their childhood homes...
Loved your reaction to this! Home Free’s versatility is just perfection!!
Thank you!
Love your commentary. Almost as much as I love Home Free!
Wow, thank you friend! :)
You can get a surprise in their cover of Can't Stop the Feeling
Very entertaining reaction! Thanks for this!
Thanks!
'Colder weather' is also veeeery beautiful 🥰
We'll never lead you astray on HF videos/ songs. Thanks for waiting! (Still snickering at the comment that you couldn't wait to hear Tim's bass! 😂)
Yes, watch the guys' hand movements. Tim self-directs; you can tell how low he's singing by how low his hand is. (He held his hand above his waist for Mayday. In Brothers In Arms, his arm is almost fully extended down.) Adam is usually animated, playing his invisible drum kit. Austin is a bundle of energy!

Ya'll are the BEST!
I watched an analysis reactor break this down, and he got into changes in location, lighting, etc. There was more than I expected going on in the background even though it is subtle to those of us who watch casually.
I’ve watched that one several times myself.
And the BTS from the Vault for this song is so interesting from a filmmaking PoV.
Cool! I'll have to watch again more closely.
@@ginger_snapz_369 yup. I think I’ll have to watch again too. (any excuse really)
they are all singing in the same key that Cam recorded the song in !!
Oh Ginger, your appreciation for Home Free is amazing! Now to side trail down Tim’s and Austin’s solo songs on each of their pages! I know you will enjoy them!!!❤❤❤❤
Adam's drum fill just before Chance's part blows my mind every time I hear this! 🤯
All 5 of these guys are so talented and versatile it's ridiculous.
Tim’s 5 octave range is always surprising , this whole group are truly brilliant
These guys can do it all! Plus, as great as they sing, they are great guys! Hope you get to hear them live one day.🤗
Now you can listen to Tim's solo work. A good one is Will You Still Love Me Tomorrow/Stay.
I felt the same way the first time I heard this song. Surprised that Tim could sing like that. Then to find Chance going that far in the lower register. They are all amazing. Thanks for a great reaction.

This is my favorite song and I love how minimalistic this video is so you can focus on the singers and what they are doing. Thanks for your reaction.
Agreed!
Chance covers the bass when Tim is in the lead. He does a wonderful job too.
It's just not fair so much talent concentrated in so few people. Leave some for the rest of us!
Seriously, Tim, Austin, and Adam are freaks.
I appreciate that you mention Cam. Her version is well worth mentioning and listening to. When Tim does lead, as we see/hear here, Chance covers the bass. Thank you for exploring these exceptional talents.
My pleasure! Cam's version is excellent as well! She's very talented
@@ginger_snapz_369 I encourage HF listeners to see/hear Cams version. It is fantastic. God bless.
I have to say that I absolutely love Chance’s bass note in this one!
Same!
For more of Rob, check out "Blue isn't your color" or "End of the Road".
This is so good. I don't know how many times I've seen this and I still hear new stuff. Love it when the guys get to stompin'. I can't remember if you've reacted to their cover of Listen to the Music, but we do get more Adam in that one.
I did react to that one and I could barely sit still. And I've listened to it frequently since. This tune is amazing.
great reaction. also, congrats on 1.3K subs!!!
Thank you so much!
They sung this in the same key as Cam did in her version.
Adam has an older video and a more recent one ! I believe both were recorded by someone in the audience , but they are both well done ! The second one Adam is using a loop setup in the first of it, but it's still all him !!
Another busy song set in a great scene is 'Do You Hear What I Hear'. Thanks.
You need to check out Tim Foust's "Will You Still Love Me Tomorrow" to truly appreciate his vocal range.
Many don't notice that Tim sings tenor throughout the entire song.
Chance handles the bass quite easily in the whole song too.
Expect the unexpected from Home Free! There are no boundaries for their talent. I’m so glad you enjoyed this video. Like you, I too am easily distracted by movement, so this is a good one for a reaction. Thanks so much for your input ❤
Thank you!
Also check out Austin and Tim and Chris Chatham singing “My Maria”.
Much fun.
Loved the reaction 🙂
Glad you know enough about them now to be able to understand the switchup of hearing Tim's high notes and Chance's low bass notes. Before joining Home Free Chance was the bass in his old group "Street Corner Symphony" so he can sing bass and often does background bass and does the bass when Tim is singing lead. I love how they are so versatile, it's just amazing to me. When Tim and Chance sing harmony bass together, it seriously sounds like a church organ to me. A good example would be the Hymn song "How Great Thou Art" Also Adam does a few words of solo singing in the song.
Chance has a lovely rich voice, he was bass for another acappela group before joining Home Free and has a few solo and collabs on his channel.
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.

If you want to hear Tim range you have to go to his personal page and watch the Video " Will you still love me tomorrow/ stay. It is A capella but with Tim singing all the parts. Will blow you away. Plus it is some good old 60's music.
Tim released a solo album called “Pieces of Me” where he does all vocals, and it’s a doo-wop album. You should listen to “Will You Still Love Me/Stay” now that you’ve heard him on “Mayday”
Watching this video is a right of passage for all reactors who have found Home Free and is the point at which a reactor officially becomes a Home Fry.
There are videos where Adam breaks down how he makes some of his sounds
Glad I got to see your surprise at this one and glad you heeded our recommendation to hold off seeing it until you were more familiar with the group. Yes, the group has some surprises that we're able to discover through the videos, interviews, and history of their activities. If a reactor researches a group, they may spoil their reaction a little. When you revealed that you listened to Cam's original I got a little worried that it might spoil things for you. Thanks for your reaction Ginger!
Perfect reaction!! HF at their finest!! I always smile and giggle before the song begins when the reactor says how much they're looking forward to hearing Tim's bass, when I know what's coming. 😄 Don't we all! And then there's Chance! Even though I was already familiar with his bass because I loved him in Street Corner Symphony, I was still shook! 😄 I'm so glad you waited until you were more familiar with the group so you could really enjoy the song in every way possible! Many don't and I always feel they cheat themselves. Cam gave them a shout-out for this. She saw them at the CMA's and knew it was coming so she was looking forward to it. A lot of the original artists have given them shout-outs for their covers which I think is very cool! - You're right about their videos being so engaging. I always have to watch the video twice when released. Once for the video, then another just to listen. LOL! One of their hardest to watch is "Brother". It's a beau~tiful song and they sing it so well, but the video is sooo fun!! You really need to play that one and turn away from the video to actually focus on the song - if you can!! 😄 Loved this reaction!!
Thank you, friend! :)
They did this in the same key as Cam did. You may have heard Tim's high range in the past without knowing it. Often when there is a harmony/background line higher than Austin's, Tim sings it. Other times it might be Adam. Love me Like That is one where Tim has the high(est) line in the background. in How Great Thou Art, every one of them, with the possible exception of Chance, contribute to the high BV tone.
Bringing Chance in really opened up the doors for a variety of things - it freed Tim up to sing higher parts because Chance can easily cover the bass, it gives tremendous power when they BOTH are 'being basses", and he might not have quite as high an upper limit as Tim does, but he is a respectable tenor, too.
With absolutely no disrespect to all of the amazing A Capella groups out there, but in my humble opinion, Home Free is both individually & collectively the most "versatile" Vocal Band on the planet!!!
100 % agree!
Hi Dagmar S. you are amazing & you truly know the FACTS!!!@@dagmar.6954
Hi Ginger! Just about the time you think you have them figured out they drop something else on ya! They are definitely amazing. If you would like to hear Tim's range a little more take a listen to Snow Globe and then check out his solo do wop songs. He does all the parts himself in those. Have a great day!
I love Snow Globe!! I don’t see that many reactions to it….that’s a shame. It’s a great song.
@@greeneyes92061 Yeah, I don't see many for that one either. Maybe around Christmas this year someone will push it.
I've gotten numerous requests for Snow Globe, so expected it soon:)
Fun fact, Tim started singing tenor. When I asked him at a concert what the key was to singing bass, he said learn tenor, and sing it well. It really helps you control your bass.
Try Tim's solo version of "Will you still love me tomorrow/Stay". Crazy good...
Tim sang tenor in one of his previous vocal groups. Chance was the bass for his previous vocal group.
Tim sang tenor in one of his previous vocal groups and Chance sang bass for his previous vocal group.
Thanks Ginger ~ 🖤🍟
And there it is just amazing now to get your big low tone Tim back listen to Misty Mountains with Tim Hollens feat Tim Foust for a real ear treat
Their From the Vault Episode 19 covers the making of this video. If you haven't seen any of that series it's what I call the camera behind the camera. At time you do see the director and Jimmy, their cameraman at work. You also see the goofy stuff that goes on while making another fabulous video. These videos are scheduled to be released one on the first Monday of the month but that don't always work. (Number 23 was supposed to drop last Tuesday, with Monday being a holiday, but no-go. Booooo!)
If you haven't see their video for Crosby Stills & Nash's Helplessly Hoping yet please put in on your list. There's no beatboxing. Adam joins in on their wonderful harmonies. Avicii's Wake Me Up is another one of my favorites. You get kind of a closeup of Adam's mouth, jaw, and throat while he's doing his thing. And that's one video that you don't cut off when the song is over. They add a little funny thing at the end, something they're known for. Sometimes is a message for us, sometimes it's a little bit of their outtakes (like in Butts Remix/Medley). Always assume there's something there, with Home Free, Austin Brown, Time Foust, and VoicePlay.
G - Thanks for waiting and for checking out the original before reacting to HF's cover! It's so sad when we see reactors dive into "Mayday" before they're "sure" they know who's going to do what parts! 🙂 This is one of those songs you'll want to enjoy again and again...and you'll also want to listen to Cam do the original occasionally. Once, I opened two browser windows and loaded Cam in one and HF in the other...and they almost synchronize when you run both at the same time. You can definitely tell that they're in the same key!
Yes, waiting on this one was the way to go! Thank you :)
Most people haven't heard Tim telling the story that in high school he was a tenor!!!! Adam Chance is doing the bass. In fact, he auditioned with Pentatonix when their original bass, Avi Kaplan, left in 2017. If you react to Home Free's 'Ring of Fire', Avi is featured in it. And usually people find Home Free from watching Pentatonix. Looking at your song lists, you may be going against the normal path. You need to watch Pentatonix. Most people start with their version of Hallelujah. But all of their songs are amazing. And both groups won different season of The Sing Off.
Check out Tim "Will you still love me/Stay" for him just showing off that monstrous range. You'll not be disappointed.
Great reaction as always. And congrats in the ads... we love that we contributed to the success of your channel.
Thank you so much for your support! As for the ads, I get none of that even though I am "officially monetized". I only have two videos (not Home Free) up that have a revenue share agreement. But, the money does go to the band/ producer, so that's good. Again, thanks so much!
Chance was the bass in his old group. And he has done amazing with these guys
Tim is a basso profundo, but unlike a vast majority of them, has a five octave range. Chance is more of what most people think of as a bass, but also has a great range.
When Chance left Steet Corner Symphony to replace Chris Rupp, the advantage was that Chance could take over the bass while Tim sang lead or joined in three part harmony with Austin and Rob. As you watch more Home Free you can tell when Chance or Tim joins in the tenor baritone trio, and the other does the lyric or rhythm bass. Tim and Chance will often switch within a song. Both Tim and Chance have relatively high ranges that blend well with the tenors. Also, while Chance only did bass with his former group, it also allows him to do lead. Neither bass does bass the same way. You can tell Chance sounds different from Tim. In addition, high level accapella bass singers tend to have large ranges, just like Avi Kaplan and Geoff Castellucci. About this performance. Home Free did it in the same key as Cam.
I know if I was a singer and had songs that were popular I would find it a privilege and be completely flattered if HomeFree were to do their version of my music or would even want to collaborate with them on anything old or new - yea crazy fan here lol lol lol
Please react to “when a man loves a woman “
It is my favorite. You will not be disappointed.
HF is sooo good. !!!
I'm so happy you reacted to this and picked up very quickly on all the reason Home Fries told you to wait for it! Your reaction was awesome! It is one of our very favorites. Just subscribed.
This tune blew my mind! Thank you for subbing :)
Great reaction!!!
Thank you!!
Great reaction ! one of the things I think this song demonstrates is how much versatility the addition of Chance to the group brought. They can do more than they used to (no disrespect intended to Chris Rupp).
So glad you knew their voices as we’ve had new people check this out and they think Tim is the tenor and we have to say no, he’s the bass! It’s the old switcheroo with Tim singing tenor and Chance singing bass (although he can sing bass too). Chance can sing low but just not as low as Tim. This showcases everyone and it’s a good one. Yeah Tim was just showing some of his 5 octave range for ya. There’s a fun one called Snowglobe that Tim wrote where he sings high and it’s very good - maybe more appropriate for the Christmas season. Good reaction Ginger!!! Love your reactions! 🥰
I'm SO glad I waited! Thanks so much, BabyFry! :)
Adam has several drum solos so check ‘em out. Also covered love train, end of the road and the mix of Ed Sheeran and Marvin Gaye is awesome!
If you want to get a good feel for Tims's range I would suggest: "Will you still love me tomorrow" by Tim Foust. Amazingly great....As is this whole band....best voices ever.
I think your next Home Free video should be “When a Man Loves a Woman.” I listen to mostly Americana, but I think the most extraordinary performance I’ve ever heard is Tom Jones singing “I’ll Never Fall in Love Again” live on the Ed Sullivan Show. Long before auto tune and it’s perfect!
New subscriber here. I adore Home Free and also Voiceplay.
Thank you so much!
Yes ...Tim's voice I think has a full 4 active range, not many that sing can do that. They all switched around in this song a little bit. Adam Chance is doing bass in this one.
They do this in some songs, feature someone in the lead. So talented they are.............Home Fry Forever...
