    That was Avi. They filmed this video the same day they did "Ring of Fire" so, since he was there, they invited him to be a part of this video as well. Did you notice him sitting on the bull in the background at the end?
    This song is such fun, and it's an original, written by Tim.

    The story behind this song is hilarious: Something like a decade ago Tim's employer told him to write a country song but he didn't want to. So he came up with the "worst" (his words) country song he could think of--and to this day it is one of his most popular originals 😆

    That was such a fun video. This is an original song that Tim wrote. These guys know how to have fun without compromising their vocals. Rob is great with his whistling & love Adam's vocal percussion. Home Free are my favorite a cappella band out there. And Avi Kaplan did a cameo role in this one.

    That was Avi that set the champagne flute on the table, walked in front of the seated crowd, and was sitting on the bull way in the back at the end. That up/down/up dance move is a staple of Home Free; I've seen it in several videos and during the Sing-Off.

    • @nightthornkvala94132
      @nightthornkvala94132 Рік тому

      Correction: That was not Avi's hand that set the flute on the table. It was a female crew member who happened to have on a similar shirt. I got online spanked a bit about that mistake.

    Enjoying your Spotlight on Home Free and glad to hear that you will be reacting to them in the future. I would recommend finishing the month with their latest which is "Ain't Going Down (Til the Sun Comes Up)". It is a real banger. At the moment it is on their Facebook page.

    Those 13 albums include the ones they made before they were thrust into the national (and now international) spotlight on Season 4 of the Sing-Off. The group was actually founded in 2000/2001. There is a series of "Home Free History" videos on UA-cam that goes through the history of the group through about 2013 or 2016. You might also consider reacting to their Sing-Off performances with the judges' comments. You can find those on UA-cam as well.

  • @babyfry4775
    @babyfry4775 2 роки тому +5

    This is another goofy one but I just love the boys. Tim wrote this. The story goes that he was under contract to someone and they asked him to write a country song when he didn’t necessarily want to write just country. He went home, got drunk and wrote this in one hour. He said it’s funny because it’s popular and he thought it would bomb. That was Avi Kaplan making an appearance. They had collaborated on Ring of Fire and he hung around for this one. Can you imagine Tim, Geoff and Avi singing together?? It would literally bring the house down. Helplessly Hoping, I Can’t Outrun You, In the Blood, Dive Bar Saints, What We Ain’t Got. Good reactions BP!

    Home Free is my favorite A cappella group. Or actually the only A cappella group that I really follow and listen to and watch every day. It doesn't matter what song, what genre, Home Free will make something of it. All different great voices, but still one. They have a song for every emotion I'm in. Just like this one. Doesn't that just make you happy? The beautiful whistling of Rob, the deep voice of Tim, the harmonies, the lyrics, the arrangement. It's also great to see how much fun they have together. Think their personalities, having no egos, no rivalry and having fun together (behind and in front of the scenes) give them that little bit more, so they're just perfect for me.

    To see a different side of the boys checkout Home Free collaborating with the country group Texas Hill. Together they sing a Home Free original titled “Dreamer.” You should look for the “Live from Ryman Auditorium in Nashville, TN.” Texas Hill does use instruments during the collab but the vocals are still top notch!

    Tim actually wrote this one when his boss in California told him he was going to have to write Country music. At the time, he was trying to get away from the Country music scene. I believe he said that he wrote the corniest, most stereotypical country things he could think of to get that out of his system. He has a great interview on The Charismatic Voice's UA-cam channel. It's too long for a reaction, but you might enjoy watching it on your own just for informational purposes.

Another artist you may not have gotten around to reviewing is Lindsey Stirling. She is a Violinist who dubstep and dances while playing the violin. She can get into some interesting positions without missing a note. She herself does not sing But she surrounds herself with talented people. Her video round table rival is just all her playing violin in a music video. She has shatter me with Lzzy Hale of Halestrom. A very very powerful voice. My other favorite is lose you now featuring Mako. Lindsey has a video with Amy lee of evanescence titled "Lindsey Stirling stream sessions with Amy lee of evanescence."

    Off of this past Christmas Pentatonix album ever green she is featured on the tracked over the river
