Oh, DJ, your reaction did not disappoint! Lol I was hoping for the fan pop on Tim’s “skunk” note! Love, love, love your reaction!! One of my favs! Home Free did a slam up job here, especially Tim’s dramatic job at being angry! A little scary, too! Lol
Of course Home Free and their Video team and all the rest of their staff hit this one out of the Whoville World!!!! 🎄 Always top notch interpretation by all aspects of this performance/presentation by Home Free!!! This becomes the new crowd favorite for Mr Grinch!!!! 🤶 Way too much fun had by all both Home Free and us as Home Fries!!!! 🍟 This release will take over the Home Free reactions for the next several weeks!! We all became kids again in less than 5 seconds and it is still replaying in my head, it won't go away..... ❣
Thurl Ravenscroft was the original singer of this song with the holiday cartoon… Tim absolutely did that Justice and blew it out of the water so did all the guys. So sassy 😂❤😂
This is such a fun version of this song! Gosh I love Home Free...they are just so so good! Thank you for sharing this one with us so soon after the Herdmas Party DJ, love it SO much!
I had a feeling you would like this one. Rob and whoever was behind the Home Free Lgoin during the premiere said the Grinch was played by an (unnamed) actor in Nashville. He did a fantastic job. Tim did also an excellent job in playing his job, he is very expressive and has a great frowny face. Don't worry, I was (and still am) really obsessed with this one, too. Tim was the perfect man to take lead in this one, and I love that they put talking-parts in this (I don't think I've ever seen another version of this who did that). He's got the perfect voice for this. And the video itself is awesome, too. It shows how great their videographers are, they have fantastic ideas. Thanks for the reaction.
You haven’t seen Tim’s dedication to this bit until you’ve seen the concert version. Not known these days for much staging, so it’s low key, but fun. Happy Christmas.
@@carinalindberg7377 Ha - yes Tim defines ‘low’. But I meant on stage. They aren’t wearing costumes or Grinch make up, and they aren’t doing a full music theater dance number. But it’s more overt staging and choreography than is normal for HF. Not like they are lifting someone up on their shoulders like they did years ago with Austin. But enough commitment to be extra fun.
I agree wholeheartedly DJ. The Grinch song and all are great. I heard someone say that the Grinch is an actor they hired. Don’t know him. Loved Tim, the arrangement and everyone. They looked good as cops! Good one DJ!!!! Have a wonderful Christmas and I love your shirt!
I'M AN ADULT. Been one for many years. Of course this isn't my favorite song from their new album. I just heard them live in concert. Of course I loved many other songs much more. I'm an adult. Why won't this get out of my head? Mr. Grinch really IS a mean one. (love it all).
Thank you for that info! My husband and I were talking yesterday about whether it was the same person who did Tony the Tiger for the original cartoon. We know that Boris Karloff was the narrator but I couldn't remember who sang this song. I'll have to tell husby and I totally agree - Tim's version is right up there with the original! I can't imagine anyone else being able to pull it off so well.
At first I thought that Austin had done a guest performance as Mr. Grinch, but was quickly dissuaded because this Mr. Grinch has a butt, and, as we all know from The Butts Remix, Austin does not. Sorry, Austin..... 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣
I love it, too, DJ. The video was so good, and Tim sounds so much like the singer of the version I grew up with. I have watched this so many times, and it's in my head, which is not a bad thing at all.
Unless a video is done in-house (by Jimmy Bates), the actors are hired by the video production company (in this case Emphasis Film) and aren't usually known to Home Free ahead of time or credited.
@@itzel1735 I believe Chance and Sami met when he joined Home Free and she started editing their behind the scenes footage, but they had been together as a couple for a while by the time they filmed Cover Me Up.
@@mandysmith1756 😂 No, I was meaning the woman that plays the love interest in the video. If I remember the BTS, she and Chance met the day of the shoot. Sami’s a different story.
It's a girl in that suit. If you notice when they are circling around Grinch, Grinch is much shorter then the guys. The legs are short also. So it could be any of their wives.
It was a hired actor in Nashville, but oh my what a sassy Grinch, whoever it was , they were awesome. Loved this so much

❤🤠#HomeFree. Epic, amazing 😍❤️🔥 Great reaction.🏠🍟🎄🎄🎄🎄
Tim's outrage face is on point and Adam Rupp and Adam Chance are really bringing the impassive FBI face!
Tim always puts 1000 % in everything he does!
I love your reaction. The giggles during the song were just what we all were feeling!

For some crazy reason, I woke up this morning with this playing in my head lol. Such a great version, perfectly executed!
Tim is playing the bad cop to perfection.

Great reaction to this fun song and video. #HomeFree never disappoints!

Home Free’s new Christmas album is fire! I hope they make more videos to support it.
Such a great video, and loved your reaction. Had to pick the right shirt for this one. 🙂

"it's low key" - I'd say 🤣🤣 I'm guessing pun not intended, but fun!

This one is oddly satisfying for someone who was always more of a tenor, and sometimes baritone girl, rather than a bass girl. :D
This song is hilarious 😂 😂😂Don’t think they could have made it any better. ❤️🐇

The original cartoon is a must watch in my house every Christmas and this Hone Free version of the song is stellar!
The Grinch is an actor from Nashville - name unknown.
Okay, this just knocked Cold Hard Cash from my #homefree Christmas favorite.
So much fun.
The Grinch was a hired actor, not somebody from the extended Home Free 'verse
I want your T-shirt, DJ!
Thurl Ravenscroft (original singer; also voiced Tony The Tiger in The States) would be proud of Tim's version!

@mimic1176 You're welcome! And thanks for reminding me that Boris Karloff was the narrator. His voice was perfect for narrating, also.
I'm ready to confess to crimes after watching Tim
😂😂
We really need to know that actors name! He/she has got the moves!!!
Tim is giving Raylan Givens vibes. If Justified was a musical. LOL.
I miss Raylan!!!!
Thanks DJ 😊🎄
Great reaction as usual.

🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣
Love This ❤

Thought for sure it was Jerome!
😂🎅🤶
They hired an actor...no credit given😢

Thanks for confirming. Was it on “Cover Me Up” that Chance met his love interest same day of the shoot?
@@itzel1735 I believe Chance and Sami met when he joined Home Free and she started editing their behind the scenes footage, but they had been together as a couple for a while by the time they filmed Cover Me Up.

It's a gentleman. His picture in the suit with no mask was on patreon
Let's face it - just about EVERYONE is much shorter than the guys! 🤣🤣
You don't listen until the end😢
I sure miss Austin. The group has not been as good since he left.
