Cam should get more credit here because she wrote an absolute banger of a song. Combine that with Home Free's incredible vocals and like for many others, this is my favorite Home Free song.
They chose to sing this in its original key as sung by Cam, a female country singer. Just proves their lack of having a female in the group is no detriment--they just let their BASS handle it! 🤣 LOVE the versatility of our amazingly talented fellas!! 🥰. Every member of Home Free could absolutely be a solo ⭐ star ⭐ but their harmonies together are MAGIC!! ❣️🎼🥰🎶❤️
Back when this was released, Tim's higher register was much less well-known - the track came out on an album months before the video, and there were plenty of arguments who was singing those first few lines. As you may have heard, Chance sang bass with his previous group, Street Corner Symphony - having two talented bass singers has given Home Free so many more options in their arrangements.
@@patriciamcl54 Agree ... there's something mysterious and reserved about Chance ... he intrigues me ! I love them all but Chance holds a special place in my heart !
Yes, both Tim and Chance were the ah-ha's in this video. If you want more of Chance's bass, check out his new single (Far From any Road) as well as his collab with The Hound & The Fox - Wayfaring Stranger.
I Can’t Outrun You not only has Chance in the lead, with amazing 5-part harmonies but he also directed their video which was his concept too. It is a MUST SEE!
In fact over the last few years he's had more leads and shared leads than Austin. Consider - Dive Bar Saints, Folsom Prison Blues, Blue ain't Your Colour, Workin' for a Livin', Born in the USA, Brothers in Arms etc etc.
Now that you've seen Mayday, you have to see "Mayday Live" - it will blow your mind (guess what - they can allll beatbox). Rob & Austin's duet of "Nessun Dorma" will leave you gob-smacked as well - yeah, they can sing opera too. I love your enthusiasm & positivity! At the risk of repeating countless others - just adorable! Keep being you!
The only version of Mayday live that I've found was a bit of a mess - Tim's voice in terrible shape for the opening, Austin off pitch and the second half descending into chaos, with something wrong with the sound balance on top of it. There were very good reasons why Mayday was removed from the song list for live shows. It needs voices in great shape, and the complexity of the last section needs exact timing and pitch.
Chance has a 4+ octave range, which would be really impressive if he wasn't in a group with a bass with a 5+ octave range... But the Chance-lead HF songs are *gorgeous*, as is basically anything on his solo channel and his collabs with The Hound + the Fox on their channel.
Now you understand why it's so important for new reactors to wait on hearing Mayday. All 5 do such a spectacular job on it, including Adam. It's one of my favorites.
exactly, new reactors have to pace themselves and learn the various tricks and techniques the group uses before reacting to Mayday, just to understand how good it truly is
It has been said Adam Rupp has an incredible voice. In order to do what he has to do with his voice in beatbox, his singing voice has to be a fine tuned instrument. He sings every once in awhile. His voice is gorgeous in Home Free’s “How Great Thou Art”! And where they filmed that one will blow your mind!!
I was just sitting here waiting for Chance to blow you away! You did not disappoint! Lol! They really are all very versatile. The only explanation is that they are aliens from some musical planet where all the beings have supernatural musical powers. If that's not the reason, well, I got nothing. Mind blown. 😂😂😂
Brother you need to listen to a Chance lead....then youĺl understand why so many Home Fries are HUGE fans of his....some of his leads (this one he even directed) I can outrun you, Finally Free (a particular favorite of mine), Cover Me Up (very special one because of the surprise after the video part is over - you gotta keep watching), Born in the USA, Dive Bar Saints, and Chance's Country Roots - not a song but a great video of Chance at his childhood home --it is so cool !!!!
I think what you are calling breaking in Austin's voice is actually him flipping up into his head voice, which is the point at which his voice could break if he weren't an amazing technician.
I was getting nervous that you would pause right when Chance did his part, but thankfully you backed up to get a running start into it. I love seeing reactions to that low note! All of Home Free did a great job on this song! I know others have mentioned some works where Chance gets low - one of my favorites is 'A Whistling Lad' from The Hound + The Fox (ft. Adam Chance). In addition to being a spectacular and beautifully written original song, I love Chance's "thunderous low drone notes" (as described by The H + The F). Another great reaction - thanks!
Lyle from Patrol Nation watched this years ago (as in before Tim and Chance switched on the regular). He didn't just get out of his chair, he disappeared. 😂 I laughed so hard. Your reaction was everything I was hoping this video would do to you. Now just waiting for Nessun Dorma to wreck you. See you soon.
When Chance hits that low note, it just sucker punches you right in the heart. WHAM !! This is my favorite song of theirs's. I think they did this just to throw all of us off kilter.
So, now that you've watched Chance be the bass, you should really check him out in Street Corner Symphony, his last group, where he was the bass. I love their versions of Come On Eileen, and Down on the Corner from their performances on the Sing Off (they also do a Beatles medley, that's amazing as well), but the album versions are good too.
Lovely reaction. May I recommend 'Moonshine', that they recorded in their own back yards in lockdown? It's so overlooked but I love it. It shows a bit of personality, I feel.
Speaking of Chance Have you done Cover me Up ? It's a very special Chance video with the guys just being a wonderful Supportive canvas as Chance sings the story. He Directed it and when you watch past the credits you'll know why!
AND SO …. another surprise from Home Free! There is no “typical” sound to them. Always different, always original, never boring. They will always ad their swagger, yet keep true to the original. Their ability to produce so many differences, yet not be type cast as - oh yah, that’s Home Free is amazing.
Yes, a song with surprises. Tim who goes tenor, Austin and Rob who also hit different notes than usual, the inhuman vocal percussion and as a great end to the surprises the incredible bass of Chance. Simply fabulous
Adam Chance was formerly the bass singer in an a cappella group called STREETCORNER SYMPHONY. They've done covers of "Madness", "Royals" and "Uptown Funk". All are EXCELLENT!
You're now ready for Tim singing Will You Still Love Me Tomorrow/Stay. And yes, these men can sing ANYTHING. I look forward to hearing Home Free Sings The Phone Book.
They are AWESOME aren't they!! I think that their choice to do this song just proves that there is nothing that these guys can't do! Each Home Free member brings their own level of talent to the group but when you put all five of them together pure magic happens! I love love this group and enjoy watching you react to them as it reminds me of when I first heard all of these songs and how I reacted to them lol You just have to check out their cover of Helplessly Hoping, this song and video is so beautifully done and actually has all five of them singing without any percussion sounds. You will once again be blown away by how versatile they are!
Great reaction. You made a joke saying that Rob and Austin would do the bass sometime , Fun fact: Adam has a beautiful tenor voice, and originally was never planned to be the beat boxer, his brother Chris was going to. ^.^
Great that you reacted to this song after knowing the Home Free band more! It makes a much better reaction, just like you just did! Some reactors just react to the song without knowing the surprises in the video . For example like you said right off you saw that Tim Foust the bass was singing in the tenor range which is the same range as Cam who is female, the original artist. You also figured out that Chance, the baritone was singing the bass which he has can sing low in the bass range as well. I like Home Free's cover of Mayday much better than the original song from Cam.
Will you start doing those Chance leads now? “I Can’t Outrun You “, 5 part harmony, hauntingly beautiful, and Chance directed the video. “Cover Me Up “, and let it play out as there is a surprise. “Some Girls Do”, “Yours”, “Blue Ain’t Your Color” shared with Rob. I push for Chance because he just doesn’t get the amount of attention as Tim and Austin, which I don’t understand. His voice is so warm and smoky. I don’t remember if you’ve done “Helplessly Hoping” yet. Pure 5 part harmony, and another of Chance’s babies. The songs that have his signature are some of my favorites. Another good one is “Dive Bar Saints “. My personal favorite of these that I’ve suggested is “I Can’t Outrun You “.
Plus he does lead sections in American Pie, Folsom Prison Blues, Brothers in Arms, Everybody Walkin' This Land, One Man Band etc... reactors always seem to snooze on the Chance tracks (even though there are a bunch of them). I love his voice and the versatility he brings to the group. They definitely lucked out getting him as Chris's replacement. He's added so much extra depth to their sound, and opened up a ton of flexibility in how they can do their arrangements. I totally agree, more Chance please!
Everyone says Chance doesn't get enough attention but every time he's mentioned everyone rushes to say how incredible he is (which he is). After 7 years perhaps we can stop with this stereotyping of Chance as the underdog. But i must agree to some extent about the frantic fangirling over Tim every time he opens his mouth, and it has got to ridiculous levels in some quarters.
@@patriciamcl54 Well... that's one way to look at it. I personally have never seen Chance as a stereotypical underdog or a stereotypical anything. I was only pointing out that many reactors don't really see what he can do for a while because most of the heavily requested songs for new HF reactors tend to be Tim and Austin leads, with a few Rob songs thrown in. I don't have a favorite out of the 6 guys. I enjoy all of them and could never pick one over the other. I don't really understand the saltiness over people geeking out on music that they love, but to each their own I guess.
Time to check out Austin in one of their originals (which he wrote) Save the World and also these 3 originals in this order as there’s a thread from one to the next: Catch Me If You Can (Rob leads) Dive Bar Saints (Chance leads) and Leave This Town (Tim leads) Can’t wait to see your enthusiasm for each of these. So, so good! Home Free never disappoints.!
Have you aeen the live performance of 9 to 5 where they break down into a beat box battle between the five of them? Well, four and Tim being a literal subwoofer.
Not sure if anyone told you this, but Chance was also in the same season of Sing Off with VoicePlay and Home Free--he was in the acapella group Street Corner Symphony. He was their bass and it's how they all met. There's a song on VP's video list that has the duet with Chance's old group.
Actually, Tim says that Adam Rupp has the widest vocal range of anyone in the group. So, not sure you will hear Rob or Austin sing Bass, but you might hear Adam Rupp do it!
I have just recently discovered the amazing talent of Home Free. I have also recently discovered your reactions to this group and i can't share your reactions enough! I love every single one!
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.
I've had the pleasure of seeing them live 3 times. They often travel to Australia..you should catch them. BTW, we all have been crushing on Austin for a long time.
Im going to throw a suggestion out there. you should check out one of the groups that really laid the groundwork for the modern acapella group, Rockapella. There is a version of the group that has been active over the last decade but the original group goes back to the 90s. IF you want another bass on your radar Barry Carl should fit the bill.
These guys are phenomenal! There is a video of HF performing for a telethon, singing My Country Tis of Thee and we get to hear Adam sing! Also, could you do a reaction to Dan Vasc’s cover of Amazing Grace? I think you would enjoy it. Love your energy 🙂
New subscriber, I caught your reaction to this just now and I had to subscribe. Welcome to the Home Fry family DJ and I adore your genuine reactions. Might I suggest a favorite of mine, Tim Foust and Austin Brown, My Maria. It is filmed on Austin's back porch with Chris Chatham, Chris Marion, and Sebastien Douyon. Much love and can't wait to see more of your reactions
So glad to have you as part of what has affectionately been named The Herd 😍 thanks so much for subscribing!! Super exciting Home Free video coming not tomorrow but the next day!! (If all goes according to plan 😂)
There are some really cool videos out there comparing the bass ranges of various of the a capella basses. The amazing part to me is that Chance and Tim have very nearly the same range. So, yeah...just ruminate on that for a bit. :)
Tim never sang bass in this. I had to watch many times to see what harmony and countermelody he was doing. He was only tenor. But chance dropping to respectable low bass was a treat.
Great reaction. This is a fab number from the boys. I believe Chance was the bass singer in another group before joining Home Free. This is the only number I've heard so far from them where he gets a bass solo but I'd love to know if there's more out there that I've not yet found. He gets anice little baritone (I think - don't know the techy stuff about ranges etc lol) solo in "Hillbilly Bone" though - would love to see you react to that. I suspect it might be something other than the vocals that get you in that one! 😉😅
This was one of the first times Tim sang in the higher register, so it was a big shock when it first came out. There were a fair amount of people who thought it was fake (although the true fans already knew that any of these guys can do whatever they want to when it comes to their music).
loved your reaction to this...fortunately you have listened to them enough that you knew Tim could sing that high....but I loved your reaction to Chance going deep....not that surprising actually, since he was the bass in his previous group. But we haven't heard him do that until now.
It's a bitter sweet fact that Mayday doesn't have the pay off for newer reactors as much any more! Thats because there is so much great Home Free content available they usually have already been exposed to Tim's range before they get to Mayday! Especially if they reacted to Tim's solo songs!
On their cover of My Church by Maren Morris, Chance takes the bass line for the majority of the song while Tim is on lead. My favorite song by them. Please check it out! Loved your reaction to Chance hitting the low notes here. Should also check out his solo stuff too!
Crazily enough, Tim is actually singing in the original key, so the same one that Cam sings in hers. Absolutely mind blowing
Cam should get more credit here because she wrote an absolute banger of a song. Combine that with Home Free's incredible vocals and like for many others, this is my favorite Home Free song.
They chose to sing this in its original key as sung by Cam, a female country singer. Just proves their lack of having a female in the group is no detriment--they just let their BASS handle it! 🤣

I CLICKED SO FAST TO WATCH YOU GET YOUR MIND BLOWN!!!!
Me too!!
I did too😂😂
Me too 😂
Yup! Sprained a finger, but worth it😀😀😀
🙋🏼🙋🏼🙋🏼🤣🤣
Chance adds so much depth to Home Free ... love it when he solos !
I actually prefer his voice to Tim's. It has more soul and sweetness.
@@patriciamcl54 Agree ... there's something mysterious and reserved about Chance ... he intrigues me ! I love them all but Chance holds a special place in my heart !
I love all the guys but Chance is my favorite, his voice is so smooth.
Yes, both Tim and Chance were the ah-ha's in this video. If you want more of Chance's bass, check out his new single (Far From any Road) as well as his collab with The Hound & The Fox - Wayfaring Stranger.
I Can’t Outrun You not only has Chance in the lead, with amazing 5-part harmonies but he also directed their video which was his concept too. It is a MUST SEE!
Ya, Chance is no stranger to Bass. He was the Bass Vocalist for his previous group, Street Corner Symphony.
You know what this song is? - A flex. Like, by the way, everybody in the group can sing tenor and we have 2 basses!
Chase so often is in the background... Whenever he comes to the fore it such a treat
In fact over the last few years he's had more leads and shared leads than Austin. Consider - Dive Bar Saints, Folsom Prison Blues, Blue ain't Your Colour, Workin' for a Livin', Born in the USA, Brothers in Arms etc etc.
Now that you've seen Mayday, you have to see "Mayday Live" - it will blow your mind (guess what - they can allll beatbox).

But the Chance-lead HF songs are *gorgeous*, as is basically anything on his solo channel and his collabs with The Hound + the Fox on their channel.
Home Free can do anything, and if you not listen to Brothers in arms you MUST SEE LOVE FROM A Fries and thanks for sharing 💖💖👏👏
9 to 5 live. It's all I'm going to say 😁
Agree and Blue Ain’t Your Color
It is like butter. The way they sing is like butter.
Austin & Rob: Guys, we need three tenors to do this right.
Tim: I got you fam. Chance you have the bass.
Chance: Cool
Adam: Ba-dum-tiss
Wait till you watch the live version of 9 to 5 + beatboxing! You will fall over, no joke! 😁
Another spectacular performance that's often overlooked is their cover of John Mayer's In The Blood...it is super cool.
Now you understand why it's so important for new reactors to wait on hearing Mayday. All 5 do such a spectacular job on it, including Adam. It's one of my favorites.
exactly, new reactors have to pace themselves and learn the various tricks and techniques the group uses before reacting to Mayday, just to understand how good it truly is
You would enjoy the "from the vault" version of making of "MAYDAY".

Country Roads, Helplessly Hoping and Brothers in Arms are a must.

I agree, it's gorgeous. Never got much pushing by the band or their PR people, even though everyone sounds amazing. One of my favourites.
Yes all of them can "just do that " including Adam Rupp he has a fabulous tenor voice
Speaking of Chance Have you done Cover me Up ? It's a very special Chance video with the guys just being a wonderful Supportive canvas as Chance sings the story. He Directed it and when you watch past the credits you'll know why!
Not sure if you have checked out Rob and Austin trying to sing opera. If not you should check it out. Talk about mind blown!
I agree, Austin's voice just has something special. Every time he sings there is something in his tone that gives me full body goose bumps!
Masterpiece from the boys!!
AND SO …. another surprise from Home Free! There is no “typical” sound to them. Always different, always original, never boring. They will always ad their swagger, yet keep true to the original. Their ability to produce so many differences, yet not be type cast as - oh yah, that’s Home Free is amazing.
3:13 goosebumps all over ❤
This song is by a female artist Cam. What is mind blowing is they sing it in the same key and octave!!!
And better...
YesYesYesYes!!! I was waiting for the video that would force you out of your chair. 🤓 Lovely reaction.
Yes, a song with surprises. Tim who goes tenor, Austin and Rob who also hit different notes than usual, the inhuman vocal percussion and as a great end to the surprises the incredible bass of Chance. Simply fabulous
I don't think there's anything different from Austin's accustomed range.
You should check out Adam Chance with The Hound + The Fox on Wayfaring Stranger
Coming in around 5 days time :D (give or take a few haha)
Chance does the bass part when tim has the solo
Adam Chance was formerly the bass singer in an a cappella group called STREETCORNER SYMPHONY. They've done covers of "Madness", "Royals" and "Uptown Funk". All are EXCELLENT!
I was waiting for you to see Chance do his bass! Awesome reaction!
Homefree are the best! Great reaction, thanks!🔥❤🔥
Chance's voice is so silky, and I wish I heard more of him. I LOVE this version. As always their harmonies and arrangements are wonderful!
He has loads of leads and shared leads with Home Free, and solo songs on his channel. Not hard to find lol!
My favorite song of HF!! Glad you loved it to…awesome reaction especially to Chance!!
You're now ready for Tim singing Will You Still Love Me Tomorrow/Stay.
And yes, these men can sing ANYTHING. I look forward to hearing Home Free Sings The Phone Book.
PERFECT! This is one of my all time favourite Home Free songs, and you understood instantly why! #DJantlers #DJunicorn #DJsHerd

Tim is amazing, He has a 5-octave voice. Chance's solo was amazing. This song is amazing! Love your reaction!
Chance's old group Street Corner Symphony he was the bass. He is a phenomenal as a bass. Truly enjoyed watching your reaction to this song.
I was dying......you had to get up and walk it off for a second! ❤
OMG🥰🥰🥰

Love Mayday. It's becoming one of my favorite songs. Love your reaction.
This group is heaven on earth
They CAN do anything!! Check out Rob and Austin singing OPERA!!! It is fabulous!!
Great reaction. Love these guys
I have just recently discovered the amazing talent of Home Free. I have also recently discovered your reactions to this group and i can't share your reactions enough! I love every single one!
Tim is so chock full of talent it’s crazy! 😮
This was LOVELY! So glad I got to experience this with you!
You just have to see Austin and Rob sing opera. Just amazing. ❤
Thank God I'm a country boy. 🙏 😉🥰🥰
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.

Thanks for the smiles! I needed this today! ❤
I've had the pleasure of seeing them live 3 times. They often travel to Australia..you should catch them. BTW, we all have been crushing on Austin for a long time.
FINALLY!
Im going to throw a suggestion out there. you should check out one of the groups that really laid the groundwork for the modern acapella group, Rockapella. There is a version of the group that has been active over the last decade but the original group goes back to the 90s. IF you want another bass on your radar Barry Carl should fit the bill.
These guys are phenomenal! There is a video of HF performing for a telethon, singing My Country Tis of Thee and we get to hear Adam sing!
Also, could you do a reaction to Dan Vasc’s cover of Amazing Grace? I think you would enjoy it. Love your energy 🙂
Peace, Love!!
What an experience it was watching your reaction😀
If you want one that a really break you watch Robin Austin do Opera they do Nessun Dorma and they nearly broke all the reactors when they did that
This should be fun
DJ. I’m an old lady and you just tickle me to death!!!! 😂😂😂. That’s a country twang saying. I have many more. I’ve lived a long time. ❤️
New subscriber, I caught your reaction to this just now and I had to subscribe. Welcome to the Home Fry family DJ and I adore your genuine reactions. Might I suggest a favorite of mine, Tim Foust and Austin Brown, My Maria. It is filmed on Austin's back porch with Chris Chatham, Chris Marion, and Sebastien Douyon. Much love and can't wait to see more of your reactions
So glad to have you as part of what has affectionately been named The Herd 😍 thanks so much for subscribing!! Super exciting Home Free video coming not tomorrow but the next day!! (If all goes according to plan 😂)
Always love your reactions
There are some really cool videos out there comparing the bass ranges of various of the a capella basses. The amazing part to me is that Chance and Tim have very nearly the same range. So, yeah...just ruminate on that for a bit. :)
Tim never sang bass in this. I had to watch many times to see what harmony and countermelody he was doing. He was only tenor. But chance dropping to respectable low bass was a treat.
Home Free was really just showing off with this one
This was so beautiful, and wow, chance! Love his voice. 💜🦌 #DJantlers #DJsHerd
Great reaction. This is a fab number from the boys.
I believe Chance was the bass singer in another group before joining Home Free. This is the only number I've heard so far from them where he gets a bass solo but I'd love to know if there's more out there that I've not yet found. He gets anice little baritone (I think - don't know the techy stuff about ranges etc lol) solo in "Hillbilly Bone" though - would love to see you react to that. I suspect it might be something other than the vocals that get you in that one! 😉😅
Your reaction lives up to the quality of the song. Thanks!
This was one of the first times Tim sang in the higher register, so it was a big shock when it first came out. There were a fair amount of people who thought it was fake (although the true fans already knew that any of these guys can do whatever they want to when it comes to their music).
I love our "collection" of bass singers. So many flavors of bass to choose from.
loved your reaction to this...fortunately you have listened to them enough that you knew Tim could sing that high....but I loved your reaction to Chance going deep....not that surprising actually, since he was the bass in his previous group. But we haven't heard him do that until now.
Do you have any merch that says " Sirrrrr" 😅
Austin does have great hair 😍 i wish he would wear is his like this sometimes 😁 lol
This 1 tripped everyone up. but it showed their range
It's a bitter sweet fact that Mayday doesn't have the pay off for newer reactors as much any more! Thats because there is so much great Home Free content available they usually have already been exposed to Tim's range before they get to Mayday! Especially if they reacted to Tim's solo songs!
Yeah I definitely had that spoilt for me BUT It was Chance that still had the shock factor for me haha
@@dj_410 Looking forward to your Home Free Christmas reactions!
On their cover of My Church by Maren Morris, Chance takes the bass line for the majority of the song while Tim is on lead. My favorite song by them. Please check it out! Loved your reaction to Chance hitting the low notes here. Should also check out his solo stuff too!
Thank you so much for your reaction! Watching your reactions bring a whole new appreciation of the music. #djherd
