My favourite cover of this song. PTX were superb, but for me HF had more heart & Chance holding the Bass throughout 🥰🥰🥰
I love PTX, but Home Free does something different for me. They're just as talented as PTX, but somehow they make their personalities shine through more. That's what I love about them. They are down to earth. And nowadays that quality is hard to find. They're inviting to their fans, which is special.
Probably the best song for comparing the two groups....I started out long as dedicated to PTX... Until I encountered HF. What stands out for me, in this song and the comparison, is the 2nd verse/stanza or what ever....PTX sounded chaotic....while HF was melodic....
PTX sang it great, but HF put feeling into it, so they didn’t just sing it.
@@ShyAnn291exactly!
I believe I heard Austin making a high sound. This is my favorite version of this song. Beautiful. Thanks for the Home Free reactions
I was going to say the same thing…every time you replayed the section, Jeremy, all I heard was Austin on the high notes (maybe with some vibrato?)
That’s what I heard also-Austin’s beautiful high tones.
Mark Lowry wrote this song and it brings me to tears whenever I hear it. He and Voctave did a superb version of it also. Mark is also a Christian comedian. He said there were other questions he had for Mary but they didn't rhyme. lol Thanks for the reaction.
Love this Home Free version and really enjoy PTX’s as well (although it gets overplayed on the radio this time of year) but for me the Voctave version feat. Mark Lowry is the best because no one can interpret the lyrics like the one who wrote them. (I love this modern Christmas Hymn, so listen to them all regardless.)
I am pretty sure that was Austin doin' his thing on those high notes you heard.
I don't think there's a no harmonica sound, but a high "Ah".
Thank you both for your wonderful reaction! Adam’s gorgeous beatboxing makes this unique from any cover, beautiful! Tim’s soothing runs make it so cozy. Tim’s run on “Lamb” gives me chills every time! Tim’s runs make me yell what the Foust! 😁 I heard it Jeremy. 😉
All of Tim's runs give me chills lol
Also I have a sweatshirt that says "What the Foust" lol.
So glad you requested this Angela ~ thanks!
I think you were hearing Austin on the high notes, maybe with some vibrato, or two notes colliding. I love their arrangement of this song as it keeps the message in perspective. No vocal acrobatics and crazy beatbox sounds. And the setting is appropriate. Thank you for not always knowing a song. It gives you room for growth (like I try with some of the metal songs!). Looking forward to hearing the last FrYday song for this year.
I am a Home Fry but I found some of the beat box noises in this song a bit off-putting. It sounds like pigs snorting-just weird. Other than that, it was beautiful and simple-not showy like some singers do(diva-ish, if you know what I mean).
Hi Cynthia, I agree with you, for me it was Austin on high notes. Beautiful arrangement !!!
I love the song and love the writers of the song, Mark Lowry and Buddy Green. Voctave has done a remake of this song with Mark the writer and it is a life changing version of! But Home Free put their own spin on this cover! Beautiful! Low bass Kenneth
Agreed--that Voctave version with Lowry is superbly stunning, imo. And I'm a Home Fry.
I didn't hear the nomonica either, but Austin can do the nomonica, too. Adam taught him.
I love Home Free’s version of this song!!! Thanks, Angela, for the request. Other commenters have said everything else I was going to say so I’ll leave it at that. Thanks for another great reaction.
❤❤❤ I just love Tim’s ‘base scoop’ when he starts each line. The harmonies in this song are ridiculous! Those deep base underlays are magic ❤❤❤❤❤ thank you JnJ
that deep throat roll I think is from Adam.
Enjoy hearing Chance cover the bass when Tim uses his higher voice. They all are amazing! Your reactions, talking about the technical side of mixing and mastering, are fun!
Pretty sure that nomonica sound was Austin singing some killer high notes.
This is one of my favorite carols because it talks about the real reason for Christmas and why it's important. It's also both a solemn and uplifting melody.
Home Free did a great job with it.
The song isn't that old written in 1984 but I have heard it performed hundreds of times usually from soloists not groups but Home Free has the best version by choosing certain lines and phrases to highlight.
It is SO easy to forget Home Free is acapella. Adam Rupp's vocal percussion is incomparable.
I love how Home Free keeps a lot of their video environments simple--allows the focus to be on the message and their incredible acapella vocals. Just amazing harmonies❣️🎼🥰🎶❤️
#HomeFree #HomeFreeDoesChristmasBest
Thanks guys for Home Free Friday!! Us Home Frys appreciate it!! This is epic!! Seen it 1000 times! More beautiful each time I hear it
THAT WAS AUSTIN THAT SOUNDED LIKE A HARMONICA
Jillian, you wouldn’t know this from your childhood in the church-it came out somewhere around 1990-1995. I didn’t hear the nomonica in this one but I don’t have cool headphones like Jeremy. The little sounds you pointed out were, I think, imitating a baby’s cry. Newborns (at least mine) give a little fussy cry like that before going into a full on cry-kind of a warning to fix whatever is wrong before all hell breaks loose! Thanks, y’all!
EXCEPT "Christmas in L A" had quite a bit of scratching & other sound effects from Adam.
Wow, i never noticed the nomonica/guitar!! Nice guys!! 😅😊
Beautiful song. I like how the camera pans back up to the Star. 😊
Songwriter Mark Lowry had written the words to “Mary, Did You Know?” in 1984 as part of the script for a church Christmas play. many have covered it since... I think the Home Free version is one of the best. I love these guys! Thanks for bringing this and I appreciate your reaction.
OO00 I gots me the shivers, the words of this song where meh but the talent in the delivery is off the chart with these fine boys, thanks for a great reaction, they always brighten my day 👍
The lyrics come from a church musical Mark Lowry wrote as though he were sitting down and having a conversation with Mary about what/who her son was/is to become. The lyrics are very powerful to Christians, especially the words "THE GREAT I AM."
It is such a beautiful setting for such a wonderful performance. It's just magical. ❤😢
One of my favorites. It gives me goosebumps. Who would think beatboxing would work in this song but it does. Maybe Austin was doing the guitar sound because he can do those sounds. I didn’t hear the harmonica maybe more guitar?? Everyone was so good. I think Chance did that low note. All of it was incredible to me. Good one J & J!! 😍😃
I heard the little high wa,wa,wa,wa sound. Probably Adam just 'singing.' maybe.....but I did hear it too.
Adam adds so much to every song. Home Free is always on point. Gorgeous song. Peace to all. ❤
Thank you so much for Home Frydays. I so enjoy your reactions. As an audio engineer, you reveal things no other reactor covers. Your interaction with your lovely wife adds so much to the reaction. The love, fun, and respect shine forth. Btw, Home Free has a magnificent Auld Lang Syne for New Years.
#HOMEFREE ...hauntingly beautiful!
This so very beautiful! Chance was singing bass when Tim was singing higher. Home Free are amazing! Love your reactions!~
I first heard this song on a Kenny Rogers Christmas CD. 😊
Don't think that was a harmonica, I heard a high-pitched descant-like vocal. ??? This arrangement does, indeed, include more beatboxing than most Christmas numbers. Love you both -- will probably miss the rest of Home Fry Friday because I'm hitting the road to my brother's house for the weekend. I hope your 2023 is ending on a high note, and that the New Year will bring new joys.
I did hear it the second time it was replayed, but it was faint. I loved the laser sounds in the section that began with "The blind will see, the deaf will hear, the dead will live again" This song is one of my favorite newer Christmas songs. The song was first released in 1991 when Mark Lowery took a poem he had written years before and asked a fellow member of the Gaither Vocal Band if he could put it to music. The poem that Mark wrote was imagined as an interview with Mary, the mother of Jesus, at his birth. Did she have any for-knowledge of what her baby was to experience on His mission in life? What immediately struck me in this song was that I had never considered this story from a mother's point of view. Yes, the Angel explained what God was doing, but the idea of a mother living through watching her child's challenges and eventual death on the Cross . . .well, it made the whole thing more personal and less of a compelling story someone just shared when I was a child. I had been a Christian for many years, but the godhood of Jesus was the majority of my view. This story fleshed out the humanity of Jesus in a very impactful way. Yes, he was the son of God, but he lived a very human life, felt the joy's, victories, temptations, sorrows, and pain like any other human ever born. The complete picture of the cost of His sacrifice became crystal clear to me. It was an awakening to the true treasure I had spent way too long taking for granted and added a mature incite to the love of God and the cost of my salvation. Like I said, this song is so very precious to me because it illuminated that His sacrifice was a choice and it was give to me in the true spirit of Agape love. The Greek term for the love that is given freely with no expectation of gaining a reward, the way God loves us.
It’s fun to hear the beatboxing sounds from Adam. His modern interpretation of sounds may help crossover to some audiences that otherwise wouldn’t listen to this song. It’s been done well by a lot of folks. I first remember a duet of Kenny Rogers and Winona Judd doing this song. Next was Pentatonix, which was great, and then a Voctave version with a feature of Mark Lowery. Mark was the original lyricist of this song and the Voctave version with Mark is truly special. I’d recommend that you check them all out. Have a Happy New Year!
Hey, Jillian. I was raised 100% Catholic (not a very good Catholic - lol), and I still didn't recognize this song right off the bat either, so don't feel bad. And I think I'm older than y'all. So it's not an age thing necessarily. I think it's just one of those songs that either you've heard or not. Jeremy - thanks for recognizing Rupp in this! Not many reactors notice his part. Sometimes Austin does the high harmonica and/or guitar sounds. Sometimes Chance does the lower, twang guitar sounds. But I think (I think - don't quote me on it) that Adam Rupp is the one making all the sounds on this. Other fries will correct me if I'm wrong.
I too was raised Catholic. This is not a song we sung, or learned. I believe it's because it's a modern song. Someone said the writer did a collab with Voiceplay on this song.
They did a fantastic job with this version of the song. Yes, I did hear it and it sounded more like a guitar to me. I enjoyed watching your reactions to this song.
Didn't hear a nomonica
My favourite rendition of this song. Of course the singing, harmonies & beatboxing are terrific (they always are). The crescendos give me chills every time! The final "Mary Did You Know" in Tim's bass adds a whole different meaning to the line. Happy New Year.
: ) According to my ear(s)... : ) It's Austin up top ad/liv BVs, prob Rob & Tim too (fill)... Chance on the bass line ... Rob, as always being a beast! ... Tim, baritenor .... Adam, being the freak of nature he is -- with his percussions, scratch stuff/mixing ---and the techno bass drop. Maybe, I've run outta thought ability. Be Safe
I absolutely love this cover. It's hauntingly beautiful.
This is so beautiful. How it all starts with all the amazing voices that blend so well. Every time one has the lead, the rest sing around it so beautifully and then build it up with so many layers is awesome. Sung with so much emotion. All supported by the incredible beatboxing and bass. It really hits you with the wonderful ending, the star of Bethlehem. What a cool arrangement. Here too they have taken it to another level.
I consider myself a big Home Fry and enjoy this song by them but imo, Voctave's version featuring Mark Lowry (writer of this song) is far and above my favorite version. It is simply STUNNING.
I'm didn't catch a nomonica either. I love how Chance carried the bass here. Wonderful version of the song. Thanks for reacting!!! Love y'all!!
My absolute favorite Christmas song by them - maybe my favorite, period! Thanks.
The sound you're talking about sounded like Austin throwing in one of his high notes.
My favorite version of this song! Chance did the bass in this song.
I'm pretty sure the 'nomonica' you heard was Austin doing his normal vibrato.. which is essentially the core of the nomonica sound anyway.
Great cover, great reaction.
@Jeremy you'll probably appreciate this, but I love the effort put into 'attack' and 'decay' envelope of the nomonica, as well as the vibrato.. it's what gives it that added authenticity..
once Jeremy pointed it out I did hear it. I love this version think only Voctave + Mark Lowry (the songs writer) have an awesome collab.
This is from when they started layering harmonics from the same singer singing another track or lead. Austin's high harmonics is beautiful, but I do miss the days when the harmonies weren't so cluttered with (impossible to perform live) multi tracking.
Austin can also do a version of the no-Monica. Take a listen to 9 to 5 plus beatboxing, live performance. It will give you an idea of what all the guys can do.
😂😂😂😂 Jillian, I say his name every time now too. It's cool!
I think that sound is just Austin!
Great rxn guys as usual
You're the best! ❤️🥷
Love your reaction! This is one of my very favorites of theirs! Happy New Year 🎉🎉🥂🥂
Chance did the bass line on this so that bass drop was all Chance. Ive heard so many renditions of this song that are really good but this version is the only one that hits me emotionally. Its ok if you arent familiar with this song, i may be wrong but I dont think its that old, the forst version I remember is by Kenny Rogers and Wynonna Judd. Anyway, awesome reaction as always, Happy New Year guys. I hope you react to Austins Christmas tribute to his Grandmother, The Warmest Winter, if you didnt do it on you Christmas in july fry.
I love the way the guys performed this. My favorite performance of this song EXCEPT for one other. If you have an opportunity, please check out Mark Lowry and Voctave. Mark Lowry wrote the lyrics for this song. It will blow you away. Thanks so much for your reactions.
I know a lot of Christmas songs, but I didn't know this one. Loved it. But I didn't hear the "nomonica" either, but Austin does some guitar and Wawa sounds, and I did hear that. ❤🎶
I think what you thought was a harmonica is just Austin singing very high
You guys are so cute together. Just delightful.
Kenny Rogers and Wynonna Judd had a hit with this several years ago.
One of my top 5 favorite Christmas songs. I didn't see if you guys reacted to my favorite, though...."Beautiful Star of Bethlehem" with the Oak Ridge Boys.
We did, Karen! Here you go! ua-cam.com/video/NS_BE6sIozY/v-deo.htmlsi=7ig_Z4s4iRzXpnRs
I'm a Home Fry and I love this one, but PTX also does a most excellent version.
Love #HomeFree
Jillian, I didn't hear the nomonica sound either. HAPPY NEW YEAR to you two.
Yes!!! Thank you, @MonguSu1952!!! ❤️🥷🏻
I feel HF has the best version of this song. ❤. For user experience my opinion to have you please your volume up more, had mine all the way up with headphones and was not loud enough. 😊. Love you both!❤
Although when I paused to type and went back to finish the song it was louder. Damn phones😁🤷🏽♀️
Chance did all the bass.
Austin was the high pitch
I think it was overtones, not nomonica, but 🤷🏻♀️, either way it sounds amazing!!
Beautiful!
Another great one.
🖤🍟
Happy Happy New Year🎉🎉💝💞
Love the song. Don't worry, it's not a Catholic hymn. 😊 The "harmonica" sounded like Austin.
The base was actually done by Chance in this song. Tim was in the higher range for this one. I'll leave you with that and let your minds settle from imploding. 🤯😄
Please react to mary did you know by ptx.
I heard the nomonica or whatever
Of course if you start lower than Tim did, you're not going to make it down the ladder.
I hear no nomonica….
I did not hear any harmonica or guitar sounds. Just Austin doing high background vocals. And I have Sony's similar to yours. Not to say that you're not right.
No harmonica
No harmonica sound.!n
There is no reason you should know this because of being raised Catholic - trust me. Besides, a Catholic would know that of course Mary knew all these things long before the birth. While I love the sounds of this song when HF does it, I hate the song itself - mansplaining at its best. (Sorry for the rant)
I think you were hearing Austin on the high notes, maybe with some vibrato, or two notes colliding. I love their arrangement of this song as it keeps the message in perspective. No vocal acrobatics and crazy beatbox sounds. And the setting is appropriate. Thank you for not always knowing a song. It gives you room for growth (like I try with some of the metal songs!).
