Rob, Chance, Tim and Austin are all incredibly talented singers but it's Adam Rupp that really puts Home Free over the top. I don't know of anyone who does quite what he does with the beatbox drums, harmonica and other crazy vocal effects. He's the "secret sauce" that makes Home Free the best acapella group out there IMO.
Those high notes are Adam Rupp. Listen to one of his new live solos. He uses a looper to harmonize with himself. Adam said his voice fits between Austin and Rob but I think since he has been practicing his vocals his range is as high as Austin's and as low as Chance.
@@leftalone4264 I heard Tim state that as well but he may be modest there the A0 he has done is from him. Adam can hit real low as well, like real low. Amazing I wish he would lead on a song and have one of the others do a simple beat box- they all can and really screw people up :)
How is this group not one of the best main stream musical groups in the music world? I guess we are just honored to be fans of one of the best overlooked bands by the music industry. And Jenn, I don't think I have seen you jam with the music as you have with this cover. LOL
The music industry, for its own convenience, likes artists/bands to fit into a category. Once you're in that category, you're never getting out. And within each category, purists trash anyone who doesn't fit their strict ideas. So for better or worse, HF are a country band and will never be considered anything else, no matter what they sing. And within country music, the fact that they sometimes do some non-country is enough to have them called "bro-country" or worse.
@@patriciamcl54 Home Free is only a country band because that was how they got onto the Sing Off after many years of rejection. Tim and Rob didn't want to get labelled country, but Chris and Austin talked them into it to get on Sing Off. Chris Rupp has done a wonderful behind the scenes series of videos where he talks about the creation and growth of Home Free with the original bandmates and the current bandmates.
@@gregpeacock5497 Yes , I've seen the whole series. The thing is, no matter how they got the label, they're stuck with it! The number of 'country' artists who have become household names is very small, and the power of streaming makes this even more so. HF and individuals within it have produced astonishing work worthy of a Grammy, but they just don't get heard.
@@patriciamcl54 I can’t agree more….PTX checks a lot of popularity “boxes” that Home Free, by their very make-up, can’t touch. Plus, their (HF’s) choice of music to cover is completely different from PTX and I’m glad it is. I’ve only bought three singles from PTX , dozens from HF, for the simple reason that I like their songs better. Both have collab’d with big name country stars, PTX has a Grammy for the effort, HF doesn’t. I wish the Country Music Academy would wake up and realize the talent that is Home Free. They deserve it…
I grew up on classic rock & am a big fan of the Doobie Brothers & had their albums. "Listen To The Music" was a big hit for them back in 1972. Love that Home Free is keeping this great music alive & introducing it to the younger generation. The guys did a really nice job of this song. Austin was great for the lead & loved the background harmonies of Rob, Chance & Tim's bass. Adam killed it on the vocal percussion again. He always comes up with some new & interesting sounds. Adam is doing the high notes as you can see in the slowed down section.
I want to say I like this version better, but I just can't bring myself to do it. The Doobie Brothers were such a huge part of my childhood it almost feels wrong if it were true.
Miss Jen...HOME FREE KICKED BUTT ONCE AGAIN.....you have to chair-dance to this one, you just can't sit still !!! Impossible ! This has shot up to the top of my Home Free favorites list !!! This Friday is supposed to be a funny one......look for it !!!
Ahhh our Adam Rupp, wonder how his mind works lol. Tim said in an interview that they usually plot out their parts and turn it over to Adam to decide his part. If this is true, he's not just a freak of nature but a genius freak of nature!
In their Home Away from Home videos with Adam he states that the guys record their parts, Darren does the mixing and then it comes to him to record his part. No matter how it gets done Adam does an amazing job!
I cant even pretend to understand the musical language you use BUT,,,,,,,, it helps me hear the bits i might otherwise miss. These boys are almost too good 🥰🥰🥰
Adam Rupp killed this,and he was the one doing those high notes! This is such a great rendition of this feel good song- it is my new favorite! Great reaction, and it was fun to see you enjoying it so much! ❤️
Hey there, Jen!! This song... Just the song itself just channels so much positive energy. And how Home Free handles all the (seemingly) hundreds of high F#-E slides (I think Adam Rupp actually does most of these in this song) - just intense pleasure and dance provoking singing. Tim's masterful base lines (always), and the crazy good mid-range harmonies by Chance and Rob. And then there's Adam Rupp's endless vocal drum kit... If you were to have only ever seen this one song from Home Free, you could absolutely never believe he was doing ALL the rhythm and high slides himself. Yes, Austin has the "lead", but really it's Adam that leads this song with his insane vocal rhythm (just as you've said, Jen). This has such an intensely good vibe - It has become one of my favorites from Home Free quickly! Thank you so much, Jen, for your super positive energy - I loved watching you react to this! How many times after you recorded this did you go back and just listen for fun?? 🤗💗
It’s so fun to watch musicians, like Jen, get into home Free. They first are wowed by Austin and Rob, then they get grabbed by Tim’s voice. Chance gets the nod depending on the songs. But Adam is usually last to be recognized. I think it’s because he sounds so much like percussion instruments it takes a while to sink in how incredible he is. This usually takes a few songs to complete the cycle. After Adam is fan girled over, reactors always tune in for what special thing is Adam going to do in this song! It’s a pattern and ?I love it when people can’t choose their favorite performer in Home Free. They are just that good!!
Totally Awesome!!! They put their minds to it they simply can sing anything and do it exceptionally well. They cannot be boxed in as a Country vocal group, they bring it to each genre they pursue............ Go Home Free!!!!!!!!!!!!!😎
I believe that Adam Rupp was doing the high notes. Look at him when it goes to the five of them together. It looks like he's doing it. Truly enjoyed watching your reaction to this song and your analysis.
You can see Rupp doing the high E-F slides in the back during the bridge when the drums drop out, so I think it’s him doing them the whole song, just layered in with his percussion tracks.
High five on the A Floor! 😂 Jen, you always impress me with the ease of what you hear and pickup, and then you go and "light" imitate Adam's crazy sounds on top of that, just like that. I think you're just as talented as the guys of Home Free, in your own way. Thanks for another lovely and fun reaction and analyses. 🙏🥰
So cool. I loved the Doobies version 50 years ago. Still makes me smile and (kinda) dance. If this doesn't cheer you up on a bad day, I don't know what will.
Home Free has taken another classic song and made it a classic of their own. Great song guys! Love your reaction/analysis, someday you'll get down to Tim's bass range. LOL!
Home Free kicked ass again!!! The Doobie Brothers had guitars, drums, keyboards and other instruments to make this iconic song. HF only had Adam and their own vocal talents to make it a classic once again 50 years later. Our boys NEVER disappoint! Love all the new sounds Adam added and so glad the bandanas are back. He looked like he really had fun with this one
Love the Doobies and love what Home Free has done with this song! Great analysis Jen! to Adam Rupp (he is a drumkit ANIMAL!) These guys never fail to deliver.
What a dynamite cover, between Adam Rupp’s showing out and their combined harmonies on the chorus, I love this! Especially in this song Adam displays such an assortment of his sounds and especially the tuned drums on transitions, beautiful. Glad you did this one quickly. Love your channel! Low bass/ Kenneth.
LOVE your reactions to Home Free...always! Looks as if you had as much fun as we did hearing it the first time (& the other 50+ times I've watched this video)! 🥳 They're ALL so incredible!😲 Adam is from another planet!👽 I grew up loving the Doobie Brothers & loved their version but Home Free does it as good or better WITHOUT INSTRUMENTS!🎶 No other group can touch them!❤🎶🔥
So much fun! Yes, as other's have said that is our Freak of Nature Adam doing the higher than the heavens notes! Home Free is the best! I can't get enough of them and this is my absolute new pick me up song/video!!! I love Everything about these AMAZINGLY talented gentlemen! Thanks Jen! Sending love from South Georgia!♥️😄🍟
I love the way Adam is bringing more of the vocals that he uses in his recent drum solos into their songs. He's really mastered using the looper so this should be fantastic live! PLEASE let them come to the UK soon!
How much fun was that?!!! So much goodness!! 😀 Love these guys so much. The "feel good guys"!! - I love the guitar sounds esp right after the breakdown. It's so far in the background, you hardly hear it. I'm pretty sure that's Austin because he does that sound all the time, but it could be Chance as he does it as well, but just a tad different. I used to be able to pick out who was doing which sounds with ease, but they've grown in complexity so much, I can't do that anymore. Plus, they've managed to all come together in matching tone now, that it makes it even harder. Not to mention the filters and layering they're using every now and then on these studio versions. I've always loved this Doobie song and the guys really did it justice! - One of these days I'm convinced you're going to hit those bass notes and you'll hear me scream with joy clear across the pond from Florida!! 😄😉 Loved this analysis, Jen, as always!
Adam is a freak of nature in this one lol....he's so spot on with everything....his fills are so realistic. I heard another reactor say something I really never thought about....Adam doesn't take his percussions out of the realms of reality. he doesn't do things that can't be done on drums.....now that being said all the extras he does here have got to be from outer space haha!!! Some of his effects are nuts!! Great stuff....this is a really fun jam. If your head isn't bobbing while listening to this you may need to check your pulse!! ;)
There's a video taken by an audience member "Home Free Kearny" that might interest you. A concert was cancelled because of a thunderstorm, rather than completely disappoint those who'd come, the members of Home Free went through the rain to a sheltered area where a lot of the audience where and sang "How Great Thou Art". Without mics, amps, speaker system of any kind, while standing on a picnic table with thunder in the background and wind blowing. It's remarkable not only for their singing under those conditions but for the thoughtfulness and kindness of doing so.
I love Home Free and reactions by the best teacher on UA-cam Jennifer Glatzhofer. Adam is amazing in the world of beatboxing I would love to see the EQ on his channel.
Awesome, awesome, awesome. OMGosh what can you say. I love how you break down all these sounds. It’s fabulously done. I love your reaction. You make it fun to watch. Thank goodness you can do that. Thank You 🎼🔥🎶🔥🎵❤️
You know it's good when the reactor pushes the headphones harder against their head! I really enjoyed your reaction to this! Especially your immediate (often hilarious) imitation attempts!
I love watching your reactions. Your so cute and look like your having so much fun. I also love how you keep checking things on your keyboard. Don't stop reacting.
except for when you had that shocked expression on your face I don't think you quit smiling through the whole song...LOVED this reaction and breakdown!!!
You had a blast reacting to this, and it showed. That is what makes a good reaction Great. And you can ask yourself why you try to copy Tim's Bass notes. Because we don't. BUT, we do expect you to have fun while you post for us. And Adam Rupp, he will never surprise me. He will shock and amaze me. OFTEN. But he will never surprise me. The day that an actual Drum Set comes out of his mouth, that will be the day that he surprises me. (never gonna happen) LMAO! Great Post, Jennifer.
Home Free makes me laugh right out loud just from the sheer joy of hearing their music. They make me so, so happy every time. Your reactions are so informative and interesting. I don't know the nuts and bolts of why I love Home Frees' music, all I know is my heart craves their music.
Love your reactions, especially to Home Free, just wanted to suggest a new one, you’ll love it no doubt!The name of it, Here’s what’s left of my heart.. Tim wrote it enough said!
So fun watching you smile through that! Amazing performance by the guys; each had memorable moments in it. Tough one to analyze because so much was going on. Good stuff, Jen!
YEAH! More Home Free! Everything they did on this video is amazing. So much energy & happiness. Adam Rupp is doing the E5. And congratulations on getting pas the A flat 4. Rockin' it as usual Jen. Thanks so much for the reaction. Love your channel.
That song is totally a Feel Good song! Just love hearing your reactions and seeing your facial expressions when you hear something that catches your attention...Hope you have a wonderful day/evening..
I was waiting for this one. This song from my youth is so much fun. Reminds me of carefree summer days… This is one where it’s really hard to remember there are no instruments besides the human voice. It’s almost sensory overload! Adam Rupp is unreal. I knew you would help pick out some of the details.😉 Great job. ❤️
Well done on that A floor 👏🏻👏🏻 Thanks for another great reaction/analysis, I thoroughly enjoy your energy and insight. And I have to agree with you and a bunch of people in the comments, it may be Austin singing this song but it is most definitely Adam in the lead.
Thank You for doing this song. I was feeling a bit down and you and the song perked me right up. Home Free and VOICEPLAY are my go-to groups to make me smile and you and your upbeat analysis make me happy.
Loved doing this one and nice to have a song from a band I know so well. There is a lot of HF material out there as they now drop new songs every Friday and you also get a few Tim or Austin solo as well the same day so plenty to keep us busy lol
Jenn, you're just cute as bug's ear when it comes to reaction (sorry for the Tennessee coming outta me!) Your passion for the voice is infectious and delightful! Keep on girl!!
I knew the day I asked you to do this one you'd knock the analysis right out of the park! So so good!... You are hands down my favorite and your reaction was priceless! Thank you!
This is a fantastic cover of a Doobie Brothers hit. Many people forget one of the signatures of the Boobie Brothers was their dual drum kits and Adam Rupp covers extremely well the two drum kits. From viewing several live recordings, I am convinced that the only multi-tracking that Home Free does is in the drum track, which is played-back live. By the way, I believe that the opening high note is Adam Rupp.
didya hear Tim's deep slides? when you have 3 sopranos, 5 altos, 5 tenors, at least 2 basses and 2-3 beatboxers, one world champ- you have such a wealth of talent, the sky is hardly the limit!!!
Missed this yesterday ... it was just *such* a busy day I had no chance to even glance at UA-cam. But I get to listen during lunch today. 😊 And another Home Free reaction at that! Nice to see you're still working on those low notes Jennifer. And you managed "A Flat Four" today! No "A Floor"! I absolutely love your reactions. It's not just a cold analytical reaction, you inject it with your geeky enthusiasm and your sunny smile so, as you said, it's a "feel good" experience! I come for the smiles as much as the great reactions. 😊 Can't wait for the next one! This one ... there really are SO many moving parts ... bass, crazy percussion, and interesting sounds. I'm honestly surprised you didn't stop even more and go back! I would not have blamed you. Good catch on the "musAc" ... I swear I listen to music but you *hear* music. I'm learning but it's going to take a lot more Jennifer videos. 😁
Jenn, I love your reaction, I have listened to this song many times and you pointed out things I never even realized! BTW, I danced to this song from the Doobie Brothers back in the 1970's. Yes I'm older than dirt now! Lol
I sure hope Adam spends an hour on pure oxygen before this performance, because I don’t hear when he gets a chance to draw a breath! His beat boxing is legendary and I’ve not heard anyone better. Home Free did this song pure justice.
Great reaction Jen.... keep em coming...love the analysis and animation of that pretty face. :) Adam does some high note here (like in How Great Thou Art..) ... not just a beatboxer.
I love watching one who knows ins and outs of vocal music have soooo much JOY in listening and experiencing songs and performances (I'll let you in on a little secret: I'm talking about you). Your reactions are endearing for sure; you're a doll. Thanks for what you do.
Hey Jen long time Home Fry. Long time Jen reacts lover. Just wanted to say you are absolutely gorgeous! Super fan here, me. I am myself a Home Fry, Voice play boy and a big Dear! Your reactions every week keeps me going!
This is simply excellent again!! I have been a fan of the Doobie Brothers for a long time. This song is just timeless. It still swings. Really something for Home Free. So great sung, so great harmonies, bone-feeling bass, But for me it's Adam who makes it truly phenomenal. He nailed it. The vocal percussion is just inhumane. So unbelievably good. For me the very best beatboxer/vocal percussionist/mouth artist there is. And the vocal he plays like that high note I think it shows that he must have a great singing voice. And I haven't even mentioned his appearance yet. He's so handsome. I do like that he has his hair a bit longer again and then with that bandana on.😊🥰 Love it, love Home Free!💖
Adam keeps the flow of sound going when the vocals make a change. Which is frequently. Never an empty space with Adam, not even for a split second. Thank you.
Beyond Amazing!!! Yes! So easy to forget that it's just them! and we get so used to it ...... and still flabbergasted. Yep Yep Yep! Now --- and yes, it is "studio", but damn is it good. LIVE will sound just as good ... busy busy busy!!! But damn did they rock it. It's a party! 😄💯🎉 Be Safe
It’s so good! Adam was a beast! I think it may have been Adam doing that high pitched slide? Maybe? He was doing scratches and crazy drum beats and high wows or something like that. Loved Tim’s low notes too. Just a fun song with lots of energy. Great reaction Jen. You’re so much fun to watch!🥰😍
This one became my favorite from Home Free the first time i heard it. It is such a vibe and Adam completely killed it! This is why these guys are my favorite group, not just acapella but, all around. Great reaction and breakdown as usual Jen.
Rob, Chance, Tim and Austin are all incredibly talented singers but it's Adam Rupp that really puts Home Free over the top. I don't know of anyone who does quite what he does with the beatbox drums, harmonica and other crazy vocal effects. He's the "secret sauce" that makes Home Free the best acapella group out there IMO.
💯💯💯
Couldn't agree more. Adam is off the chart with this one. Amazing.
Nail on the head
Adam reminds me of tomthumb wish Tom would join a group like this
Doobie Brothers = 4 guitarists and 2 percussionists. And Home Free performs this and there isn't a thing missing - they nailed it!
Those high notes are Adam Rupp. Listen to one of his new live solos. He uses a looper to harmonize with himself. Adam said his voice fits between Austin and Rob but I think since he has been practicing his vocals his range is as high as Austin's and as low as Chance.
And if he throws in some throat singing, he can sound as low as Tim at times.
Tim said that the lowest single note any of them ever hit was Adam, not Tim. By 1 note. Of course, Adam isn't able to sustain it like Tim can.
@@leftalone4264 I heard Tim state that as well but he may be modest there the A0 he has done is from him. Adam can hit real low as well, like real low. Amazing I wish he would lead on a song and have one of the others do a simple beat box- they all can and really screw people up :)
@@johngalt2054 : A0 in this: Listen to the Music.
@@deanmarion5477 ah cool. Did not have headphones on.
That's the Ruppster up there in the rafters.

How is this group not one of the best main stream musical groups in the music world? I guess we are just honored to be fans of one of the best overlooked bands by the music industry.

Home Free really know how to do a classic rock song justice.
Don't worry about too much Home Free. They never get old. I'll be back for every Home Free reaction.

Adam loves this kind of song. Allows him to play with his new crazy noises. He was in heaven during this video.

I love the way Adam is bringing more of the vocals that he uses in his recent drum solos into their songs. He's really mastered using the looper so this should be fantastic live! PLEASE let them come to the UK soon!
Only HF could replicate this song with so much joy. I’m here for you and your reactions, you have great insights
There may not be anything more beautiful than Jennifer smile when she is listening to good music, God-bless you and this channel

I love that you are so surprised with Home Free, even after all this time!🥰 They NEVER disappoint,!! Love your reactions! Say Hi to your Mom!🥰
Adam Rupp is a beast on those high sliding notes, hes adding more vocals into his drum solos too
These guys are the best in the biz in my opinion. I listen to them a lot and now so do my kids and grandbabies!
Mis Jen I have had the opportunity to see them live what a great time I had and what a party they'll be in England soon.
There's a video taken by an audience member "Home Free Kearny" that might interest you. A concert was cancelled because of a thunderstorm, rather than completely disappoint those who'd come, the members of Home Free went through the rain to a sheltered area where a lot of the audience where and sang "How Great Thou Art". Without mics, amps, speaker system of any kind, while standing on a picnic table with thunder in the background and wind blowing. It's remarkable not only for their singing under those conditions but for the thoughtfulness and kindness of doing so.
I love Home Free and reactions by the best teacher on UA-cam Jennifer Glatzhofer. Adam is amazing in the world of beatboxing I would love to see the EQ on his channel.
Awesome, awesome, awesome. OMGosh what can you say. I love how you break down all these sounds. It’s fabulously done. I love your reaction. You make it fun to watch. Thank goodness you can do that. Thank You 🎼🔥🎶🔥🎵❤️
Thank you!😁
You know it's good when the reactor pushes the headphones harder against their head! I really enjoyed your reaction to this! Especially your immediate (often hilarious) imitation attempts!
I love watching your reactions. Your so cute and look like your having so much fun. I also love how you keep checking things on your keyboard. Don't stop reacting.
except for when you had that shocked expression on your face I don't think you quit smiling through the whole song...LOVED this reaction and breakdown!!!
You had a blast reacting to this, and it showed. That is what makes a good reaction Great. And you can ask yourself why you try to copy Tim's Bass notes. Because we don't. BUT, we do expect you to have fun while you post for us. And Adam Rupp, he will never surprise me. He will shock and amaze me. OFTEN. But he will never surprise me. The day that an actual Drum Set comes out of his mouth, that will be the day that he surprises me. (never gonna happen) LMAO! Great Post, Jennifer.
Home Free makes me laugh right out loud just from the sheer joy of hearing their music. They make me so, so happy every time. Your reactions are so informative and interesting. I don't know the nuts and bolts of why I love Home Frees' music, all I know is my heart craves their music.
I believe it’s Adam who’s doing the higher tenor slide. The guy is extremely talented!!
Great reaction Jen! Adam Rupp is a beast! This is such a feel good fun song. Can’t wait to see your next one!
Thank you for continuing to make your posts as much fun as they are informative.
Ah thank you!
Adam Rupp, your a beast!! Ur voice and beatboxing!! OMG!!❤
Love your reactions, especially to Home Free, just wanted to suggest a new one, you’ll love it no doubt!The name of it, Here’s what’s left of my heart.. Tim wrote it enough said!
All of the high stuff, the E5 and such is also our very own ADAM RUPP 😁 Same with How Great Thou Art... they are all EXTREMELY versatile and talented.
So fun watching you smile through that! Amazing performance by the guys; each had memorable moments in it. Tough one to analyze because so much was going on. Good stuff, Jen!
YEAH! More Home Free! Everything they did on this video is amazing. So much energy & happiness. Adam Rupp is doing the E5. And congratulations on getting pas the A flat 4. Rockin' it as usual Jen. Thanks so much for the reaction. Love your channel.
That song is totally a Feel Good song! Just love hearing your reactions and seeing your facial expressions when you hear something that catches your attention...Hope you have a wonderful day/evening..
Haha thank you!
I was waiting for this one. This song from my youth is so much fun. Reminds me of carefree summer days…
This is one where it’s really hard to remember there are no instruments besides the human voice. It’s almost sensory overload! Adam Rupp is unreal.
I knew you would help pick out some of the details.😉
Great job. ❤️
Oh indeed!! Thank you🥰
Austin is my favorite but they all are amazing. Together they are Home Free. Adam bringing in all the instrument sounds. Amazing!
Well done on that A floor 👏🏻👏🏻
Thanks for another great reaction/analysis, I thoroughly enjoy your energy and insight.
And I have to agree with you and a bunch of people in the comments, it may be Austin singing this song but it is most definitely Adam in the lead.
Adam Rupp! He's hitting those incredible high notes!
😱🤯
@@JenniferGlatzhofer That's how I felt too! I had to rewatch it a few times before I caught on during the breakdown. You can see him doing it.
Yay! We're getting Home Free month ;) I'm so excited I get to see them live in a few months.
Oooh enjoy!
I was so excited to see you are reacting to this! Woo hoo
Thank You for doing this song. I was feeling a bit down and you and the song perked me right up. Home Free and VOICEPLAY are my go-to groups to make me smile and you and your upbeat analysis make me happy.
Ah thank you! 😁
Loved doing this one and nice to have a song from a band I know so well. There is a lot of HF material out there as they now drop new songs every Friday and you also get a few Tim or Austin solo as well the same day so plenty to keep us busy lol
Oh wow! How do they have the time 😱
@@JenniferGlatzhofer Guess lockdown was good for them lol
Jenn, you're just cute as bug's ear when it comes to reaction (sorry for the Tennessee coming outta me!) Your passion for the voice is infectious and delightful! Keep on girl!!
I knew the day I asked you to do this one you'd knock the analysis right out of the park! So so good!... You are hands down my favorite and your reaction was priceless! Thank you!
Your enthusiasm is so much fun to watch, you put joy into your reactions. You are one of a few reactions just to watch the reactor. Joy
I love to see your reactions to the music as well as hear your analysis. And I love Home Free.
This is a fantastic cover of a Doobie Brothers hit. Many people forget one of the signatures of the Boobie Brothers was their dual drum kits and Adam Rupp covers extremely well the two drum kits. From viewing several live recordings, I am convinced that the only multi-tracking that Home Free does is in the drum track, which is played-back live. By the way, I believe that the opening high note is Adam Rupp.
I love that you notice things in your analysis that I wouldn't have noticed otherwise.
Thank you😊
This was absolutely COOL!! This and China Grove were my 2 fav Doobies' songs. They did it justice.
This is my wake up song. Austin may be singing leàd but Adam Rupp steals the show. Rupp is going wild! Great reaction as usual.
didya hear Tim's deep slides? when you have 3 sopranos, 5 altos, 5 tenors, at least 2 basses and 2-3 beatboxers, one world champ- you have such a wealth of talent, the sky is hardly the limit!!!
Missed this yesterday ... it was just *such* a busy day I had no chance to even glance at UA-cam. But I get to listen during lunch today. 😊 And another Home Free reaction at that! Nice to see you're still working on those low notes Jennifer. And you managed "A Flat Four" today! No "A Floor"! I absolutely love your reactions. It's not just a cold analytical reaction, you inject it with your geeky enthusiasm and your sunny smile so, as you said, it's a "feel good" experience! I come for the smiles as much as the great reactions. 😊 Can't wait for the next one! This one ... there really are SO many moving parts ... bass, crazy percussion, and interesting sounds. I'm honestly surprised you didn't stop even more and go back! I would not have blamed you. Good catch on the "musAc" ... I swear I listen to music but you *hear* music. I'm learning but it's going to take a lot more Jennifer videos. 😁
Ah thank you so much for your comments 🥰
Great reaction to this one 🤣 The guys surprise me all the time with their choice of music and how great they can be together!! Thanks 👍
Jenn, I love your reaction, I have listened to this song many times and you pointed out things I never even realized! BTW, I danced to this song from the Doobie Brothers back in the 1970's. Yes I'm older than dirt now! Lol
I sure hope Adam spends an hour on pure oxygen before this performance, because I don’t hear when he gets a chance to draw a breath! His beat boxing is legendary and I’ve not heard anyone better. Home Free did this song pure justice.
Austin sang this song, but Adam took the lead with this one. Thanks for your awesome reaction.
Thank you!
@@JenniferGlatzhofer : I actually pick this song for you to react
Great reaction Jen.... keep em coming...love the analysis and animation of that pretty face. :)
Adam does some high note here (like in How Great Thou Art..) ... not just a beatboxer.
I love watching one who knows ins and outs of vocal music have soooo much JOY in listening and experiencing songs and performances (I'll let you in on a little secret: I'm talking about you). Your reactions are endearing for sure; you're a doll. Thanks for what you do.
Perfection! My fellow Fries have said it all!
Loved the reaction!
Hey Jen long time Home Fry. Long time Jen reacts lover. Just wanted to say you are absolutely gorgeous! Super fan here, me. I am myself a Home Fry, Voice play boy and a big Dear! Your reactions every week keeps me going!
the floaty high note is Adam Rupp
Love watching you react to this song as you unpeel it layer by layer.
This is simply excellent again!! I have been a fan of the Doobie Brothers for a long time. This song is just timeless. It still swings. Really something for Home Free. So great sung, so great harmonies, bone-feeling bass, But for me it's Adam who makes it truly phenomenal. He nailed it. The vocal percussion is just inhumane. So unbelievably good. For me the very best beatboxer/vocal percussionist/mouth artist there is. And the vocal he plays like that high note I think it shows that he must have a great singing voice. And I haven't even mentioned his appearance yet. He's so handsome. I do like that he has his hair a bit longer again and then with that bandana on.😊🥰
Love it, love Home Free!💖
Love it!
Did you watch Tim's Bash? More music coming from Tim, Austin, Chris and Jeffrey
Adam keeps the flow of sound going when the vocals make a change. Which is frequently. Never an empty space with Adam, not even for a split second. Thank you.
Beyond Amazing!!! Yes! So easy to forget that it's just them! and we get so used to it ...... and still flabbergasted. Yep Yep Yep! Now --- and yes, it is "studio", but damn is it good. LIVE will sound just as good ... busy busy busy!!! But damn did they rock it. It's a party! 😄💯🎉 Be Safe
I love your reactions, especially love when you impersonate the sounds. Oh, and your personality.
Awesome song and reaction!
It’s so good! Adam was a beast! I think it may have been Adam doing that high pitched slide? Maybe? He was doing scratches and crazy drum beats and high wows or something like that. Loved Tim’s low notes too. Just a fun song with lots of energy. Great reaction Jen. You’re so much fun to watch!🥰😍
This one became my favorite from Home Free the first time i heard it. It is such a vibe and Adam completely killed it! This is why these guys are my favorite group, not just acapella but, all around. Great reaction and breakdown as usual Jen.
Thank you 😁
