@@pontu_com4586 - In a video message with Amberly he said, essentially that he just wants to be home. That he loves his band brothers and there's no rancor. He's leaving HF after their next tour. Personally, I think he's hit a nesting phase. I wish all the best in the world to them.
So cool that Chance's lead vocal on this song is 100% in the bass range, and yet in the song's intro, Tim is singing a full octave below him. Seismic... 🤯
Jenn, lucky to have 3 concerts scheduled in April. 🥰 And with Austin leaving I’ll make it to as many as I can after the rest of the schedule is announced 😢. Chances voice is like a smooth whiskey. 🥃. That eye contact with Tim and Rob….Tim served him a fly in his pint 😂😂
A character that becomes integral in the video is the young lass that grabs the employment notice to join the ranks of the pirates and work her way to become the captain. Not sure who she is, but she is a sly one who works like a dawg and makes the rank at the wheel and then ultimately becomes the captain all decked out and in command of the ship. "Yo Ho" Ah my matey's she is a fine captain the "Lass"!!!!!! Oh Home Free you are sly ones my mates!! See you April 26th in Salina, KS. ❣
I love this production of Skull and Bones. It took a lot of people to make it happen. That is epic! I love it when Chance becomes creative like this. It seems like such an honor to create for Ubisoft. Great reaction, Jenn! ❤ Cyd
I have tickets to their show in Lafayette, IN on April 13, 2024. Very excited, and the last chance I'll probably ever have to see them performing with Austin Brown.:(
Jen.True story. I dreamed last night that you were on stage singing with HF!! I had watched a video that u were reacting to before I went to sleep! Lol!! I
Great job Jenn, love the way they did this! And incredible that Tim was down the octave in the basement and staying in the 1st octave most of the song! Harmonies spot on as usual! If you want to see them try to make arrangements before fall as Austin has announced he is leaving home free for solo career and to be home more! Him and Amberly have a video out talking about the decision! Again great job! Looking forward to more! Low bass Kenneth
I won UVIP tickets and will be flying to San Antonio to see them March 30th with my brother. They did mention they would be adding fall concert dates which included the NE. I'm hoping they will be near enough that I can see them once more this year.
Is there anything more joyful than Jen fangirling over #HomeFree ?? No M'am 😂 Only complain : first Home Free song in 2024 !!??!! How Jennifer, how 😱😱😱 Love you nonetheless because you're going to fix that ...of course 😁 Byeee until the next one ❤❤❤❤
Enjoy their music this year, because it is gonig to change next year.Please give your opinion on their latest news. For me it sad but i understand,and i wish all of them happense & success. im just glad i get to see them in April. love to hear your thoughts
the girl whose name is given in the credits is an up encoming actress-she did acting with just her eyes-cant wait to see more of here-great video and great reaction as well...time to grab me a pint meds is breakfest food...YO HO
Love your reactions to HOME FREE!!! I was wondering what has taken you so long to react to them. Such a lot of content from them. Thanks again for your reaction.
It was one year ago today that I saw them for the first time in Shreveport, La......I have tickets to see them again on March 26th in Mt Pleasant, TX.... SO EXCITED!!!
Jen, I loved your review and reaction. I haven’t seen anyone else mention it, but wanted to let you know that there was some skipping in the audio here and there throughout the actual video that you may want to check out. I doubled checked the actual video on Home Free’s channel and I had no issue. I did enjoy your commentary and witty remarks. Home Free has a fabulous video, and song, of course. I don’t know how they’ll top this one!
Yes! Tickets for April in my home town, 5 minutes from me in our beautiful historical theater!! I'm so happy to see them again and see Austin at this time.
Jen, excellent Reaction as always, Skull and Bones is the titular song for the recently released video game, as far as I understand it the company that made the game reached out to Adam and commissioned the song, Home Free also performed this song life at the summer games fest last year, the shots of the ship in the water are from the game engine itself, the boys had this song 'in the bag' as it were since the lyric video was released but were contractually bound to not release it immediately.
Fun fact. In the movie Muppet Treasure Island, the beginning of the movie starts with a song about the pirate crew that hid the treasure. There's a line that goes 'every man aboard would'a killed his mate for a bag a' ginnies or a piece of eight!' Now, out of curiosity I looked it up...a piece of eight, which was literally a 1/8th of a Spanish silver dollar, had the buying power of around 15 dollars US in todays economy, so around 12 British pounds. That was all their loyalty was worth.
You're right - this isn't a music video. It's a mini-movie with terrific acting, singing, harmonies, Adam's crazy beatboxing and a story (something most movies now lack). Whomsoever Home Free finds to fill Austin's spot is going to have a tough act to follow. Although neither Chris Chatham nor Jeffrey East are power tenors, perhaps ... .
Seeing Home Free live is a dream. I have never seen them live, and when I finally do, I don't think Austin will be in it because he's leaving. I do have my eyes on some people for a replacement though (even though he's quite irreplaceable).
I really wish I had a chance to go to a Home Free concert this year, sadly they're not coming to the EU, which makes sense because they were here last year. But it'd be nice to see them once more in their current lineup before we need to adjust ourselves to a new lead tenor. I'm just glad I had my first Home Free concert last year. As for this video... it really is beautifully made. It's growing on me. Tbh I'm not sure how much I liked it at first because it felt slower paced than the music in a way, but the more I see it, the more I like it. And Chance taking the lead in a song is always a nice treat, I'd say.
Thanks for reacting to this original HF song written by Adam Chance! Speaking of Chance.. I’m very much looking forward to your reaction of his recent release Mrs Potter’s Lullaby. A song by Counting Crows which Chance totally made his own.
Love, love, love this!!! Love this video too. Such a banger of a shanty! Should be in a movie. Honestly, Chance reminds me of a brunette version of Sean Bean (Boromir in LOTR, or Ned Stark of GOT)! Gutted about Austin leaving but hoping for a great new member. I have tickets to see them in April and Austin won’t leave til next fall sometime so I’ll see him one more time…..aaaarrrrggggghhhh! 😍😪☠💀
Saw them perform this live in London last year, which was great! If you fancy a different group doing a related video, check out The Longest Johns skull & bones sea shanty medley (and I'll be seeing them live next month)...
It's a pint of GROG that you need. Usually somewhat watered down rum. Not watered down enough and fights break out. Too watered down and the crew threatens mutiny. They usually only got a cup or so per day. After their shift. A pint or tankard of ale or bitters would be more of a land lubber's phrase. But we're all salty sea dogs here, right? Maybe the captain gets a tankard to drink from? A British pint is about 19.2 U.S. fluid ounces, so it's larger than most Americans expect (16 U.S. fluid ounces).
I was thinking of seeing them near me in March -- then we heard Austin is leaving so it may become my only chance to see them together. Sad but happy for Austin, but better see them now! 🎉❤
I will get to see them again late march, since I live so secluded they do not get close often, only a 3 hour drive each way this time, the last was 2 hours.
I REALLY REALLY LOVE YOUR REACTIONS.. YOU'RE SO CUTE, SO FUNNY,, SUCH A JOY... I HOPE YOU KEEP DOING WHAT YOU'RE DOING.. IT MAKES MY DAY WHEN I SEE YOUR SILLY FUNNY SELF...❤❤
I’ll admit I only subscribed for your Home Free reactions. So this is the first video of yours I’ve watched in awhile. But I love this song and your reaction!
I can no longer handle crowds, but I wanted to make an exception in December when they were in COS. May go to Denver in April. Only one reactor has caught some sound effects in the bar scene. I'll only say it is related to the poster. I can't not hear it now. 👍👍👍
So, have yourself a few low notes and then some. I think it’s great that Adam Chance wrote a song that calls for such tremendous vocal depth all throughout the tune. Though I’m biased given my range. I can’t pull off Tim’s ultra-low backing vocals, but I can basically sing Chance’s lead comfortably in my lower register and chest voice. Beyond that I absolutely love the ocean and everything to do with it. The sea and all of its wonders await.
Jennifer! Home Free! Not familiar with this song but it promises to be fun, especially if you're looking for a pint! 😂🍺Well let's see what the lads have for us. Lol, 5:17 "I ... need a pint of something." Well what the lads were having in the bar, which was set in India, was probably an IPA shipped from England with plenty of hoppy bitterness to keep the brew from spoiling on the long sea voyage. Oh! "Long live piracy" ... that last "piracy" was a D3 and you still managed it! This one was fun! As you say, good acting, fun sea shanty, what's not to like!? Great reaction and analysis as always Jen.
I am sure you noticed that the girl represents a player character in the game, progressing from beginner to gaining experience and eventually becoming the captain of her own ship.
Wasn't that great! We've been waiting for this official video by Home Free for awhile now. It felt like I was watching a movie. Home free is so talented & they can do any genre of music. Chance loves sea shanties & he wrote this song for the game "Skull & Bones". His deeper voice sounded great for this song. And of course all the background harmonies of the guys, Tim's bass & Adam's fabulous vocal percussion.
A question, there was a kid who played trumpet in band with one of my sons. Somehow, he could breathe in through his nose and continue to hold a note on the trumpet. They timed him once and he just stopped at 6 minutes. I don't know how he did it. I saw him do it. Myself and all three of my sons played tuba, but we couldn't do it. Have you heard of such a thing? Would it be possible to hold a note singing in that same way?
Hey Jenn you want to join an accapella group here is your chance!! Sad news Austin Brown is leaving. He will be missed but an opening for you??? Unrelated news PLEASE react to Geoff Castellucci's Wicked Games!!! I need educational information like what notes is he hitting!!!
Since Austin's leaving you should try out for high tenor in Home Free Jenn 🤔🤔 Just a thought. 😂😂 Thanks for another gem of a reaction. 🎉
Wait wait wait, is Austin leaving? Whyyyyyt?

I got tickets in March in Stafford Texas. I'm taking my 90 year old father; he's a huge fan.
I wonder if Austin will be there? He announced on his UA-cam page that he's leaving Home free, to stay home with his wife . . .
I will also be there. I was lucky to get tickets to Lake Charles in April as well.
@@Andrea.S.Alvey12He's with them through fall.

If you watch the live version of this the Skull and Bones words are being chanted by Adam Rupp with the percussion is he doing. It’s very impressive 😊
Absolutely love this. Chance's voice is perfect for it. And the boys really seem to have adopted the whole pirate vibe.
It's wonderful to hear Chance showcase his bassiness.
Another great R&A from my favorite R&A artist. Was somewhat sad you didn't have a pint handy, so I bought you and Ian a pint of coffee! Enjoy!
I have tickets to their show in Lafayette, IN on April 13, 2024. Very excited, and the last chance I'll probably ever have to see them performing with Austin Brown.:(
me too
I have never seen Home Free live, and when I finally do, it'll likely be without Austin.

music this year, because it is gonig to change next year.Please give your opinion on their latest news. For me it sad but i understand,and i wish all of them happense & success. im just glad i get to see them in April. love to hear your thoughts
My heart (for Home Free) will go on 😊 The other very talented singers will always hold my appreciation.

This song makes you want to become a Pirate and work at a Pirate Renaissance Festival. Long live the Pirate Republic. R.I.P: Pirate Republic.
I love Chance's low register and the fact that he wrote this song for the game. The harmonies are fabulous too. Great reaction Jen

Yes! Tickets for April in my home town, 5 minutes from me in our beautiful historical theater!! I'm so happy to see them again and see Austin at this time.

The first few chords, are done by Chance and Tim. It gives it a nice deep tone.

You should check out one of the OGs in a'capella... The Nylons. Marc Connors had one of the nicest voices i have heard.
Excellent analysis as usual. This is truly epic. Who wants to join the crew?

I got mine after the austin leaving announcement
Steel heart - she's gone (unplugged)
Please do their new version of Colder Weather, it's so good.
Love Home Free will miss Austin Brown when he leaves.
I guess you know Austin is leaving the group !!!
