First Time Hearing HOME FREE "Cam - Mayday" Reaction

[@chrismidkiff5535]

Home Free. 5 guys. 2 bases, 3 baritones, 4 tenors, 2 countertenors, a drum kit, and a synthesizer. All in 5 voices :D

[@GOTGames]

Back with some HOME FREE!!!!

[@LoLGamer-se1sz]

Hello, I'm 1 of your random LoL reaction fans here. I was wondering if you're going to do more LoL reactions. Would recommend the last 3 K/DA songs - Drum Go Dum - I'll Show You - The Baddest or perhaps - RISE (ft. The Glitch Mob, Mako, and The Word Alive) It's my personal favorite song, very good for fitness too.

[@annebiebrich9155]

Homefree is the best of all the acapella groups

[@pennymaple1817]

What is incredible about this cover by five men is that they are singing in the same key as the original female artist. Nuff said.

[@Tark-qs4mu]

The reason it's suggested by most of the Homefries that a reactor waits for a good while before reacting to this particular song is so that they get a chance to know the voices in the group, so they understand what they can typically expect from each member. Then comes along Mayday and completely shatters those expectations. This was one of the first times most people got to hear Tim sing in the higher register like this, and it shocked quite a few people to hear just how high he can get. ( though we know he can get a good bit higher yet now ) Then you have Chance come in and just KILL the bass. Which, had most of us remembered where he started, should have come as no surprise. He was the bass for a group called Streetcorner Symphony. If you go back and watch their Try Everything video you'll even see Chance wearing their teeshirt still. This cover is stunning for a number of reasons, for sure. And, yes, my opinion meshes with yours as I think this is one of, if not totally, their best.

[@GOTGames]

That makes a lot of sense! Because everything about this song and their vocals threw me off guard and I loved it for that!

[@sjenny5891]

I listened to this for six months before I saw the video. I swore it had to be Rob singing first because he didn't have Austin's accent.

[@miamidolphinsfan]

Hey brother, good to see you back with Home Free. Glad you are appreciating their unique talents. These guys are amazing in person too. My recommendation is to react to one of their more recent covers? About 6 weeks old now...a cover of the Doobie Brothers 1972 megahit "Listen to the music" ...you WILL chair dance...guaranteed. No one can stay still to it. You'll love it as the beatboxer shines...you gotta react to that !!!

[@Cat-fi4ie]

This is a MUST Listen to. LISTEN TO THE MUSIC is the bomb

[@wyd3428]

That is indeed a good one….. “Helplessly Hoping” and “Brothers in Arms”…. There are so many, and they are so diverse…. And there are no bad songs.

[@GOTGames]

Thank you for the recommendation my friend! Can't wait to check that one out 💯🤘

[@ishort0967]

Chance will cover the bass when Tim is doing lead vocals..I see someone suggested Brothers in Arms..a stunning vocal arrangement!!

[@miamidolphinsfan]

Most definitely recommend Brothers in Arms

[@GOTGames]

Oh yeah? That one has been recommended a bunch! I look forward to checking it out 🤘

[@januzzell8631]

Now you know why we said to wait :) - Tim is usually the deepest note in the group and him starting in his higher register and then Chance knocking out of the park - Glorious :D

[@GOTGames]

Yup!! I do 😂 Imagine doing this reaction first? Would be so confused of the usual arrangements!

[@januzzell8631]

@@GOTGames LOL

[@ad9aggie]

Austin & Rob: Guys we need three tenors to record this right Tim: I got you guys. Chance, you have bass Chance: Cool, cool, cool Adam: Ba-dum-tiss

[@kapulanir.5]

i loved your reaction to this song!!! The original to this is done by a female named Cam & Home Free did it in the same key that she did...Tim stayed in that tenor the whole song...Chance covered the bass...us Home Fries love to watch reactors as they listen to this & get the shock of their lives after thinking they know all about Home Free...so glad you enjoyed it...thank you for your awesome reaction.

[@grannymitch9475]

Great reaction to another great song by Home Free! The original was by Cam, a soprano, and this was done in the same key she used. I particularly love the mashup at the end - that’s all Home Free - and Austin’s extensions at the end of his solos were awesome. Chance was the bass in his last group. Tim (the usual bass) has joked on stage that they were lucky Chance joined them and not PTX. Home Fries say they don’t do covers - they do UPGRADES, and it’s so true! You need to check out their cover of End of the Road. Rob is fantastic as the lead. And you should do yourself a huge favor and check out Austin in When a Man Loves a Woman!

[@GOTGames]

End of the Road? Happy to!! 💯💯

[@cynthiavance3239]

Home Free just Never Disappoints!! One of these days you Really have to react to Adam Rupp's "Drum Solo". When people just call him the beatboxer of the group, they Truly don't understand the extent of his talents. Watched him do it live in Nashville one year...Mind Blown!!!❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️

[@GOTGames]

Happy to check that out as well my friend!

[@michelleh8301]

You need to add "Helplessly Hope" & "Brothers In Arms". Both of these songs are absolutely amazingly beautiful! Just name only afew. Rob & Austin sing Opera's "Nessun Dorma" you must listen to it too. It will totally blow your mind!

[@tweetiepooh2001]

You missed the entire point. The bass started it in a very high register and the baritone did a very sweet bass. Home Free likes to shock the listeners with swapping things up. Their sheer talent is amazing.

[@justann1358]

Maybe you should go back and watch the reaction again, because not only did he notice he also commented on both of those little surprises

[@tweetiepooh2001]

@@justann1358 you go watch any other reaction and you can see the second that they sing the recognition of the swap up. His reaction was a back handed mention. Anyone familiar with Home Free immediately does a big "O'.

[@JoanN63]

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

[@GOTGames]

Really is!!

[@snowyowl611]

This is one of my favorites of theirs. There are a few great covers they do, such as In The Blood, Some Girls Do, Cover Me Up, amongst others. Great reaction and enthusiasm.♥️

[@JohnPaul-hm2ys]

The original by Cam is awesome, but this puts in a new level to the song. I would like to hear them do a version of her song Burning House (it a heavier lyric). Since you seems to have an affinity for all types of music, Austin Brown released a stripped down version of Bring Him Home from Les Miserables; showing off his vocal range.

[@karsyndrewe3731]

they all sang in the same key as cam...very impressive...love home free!!

[@dagmar.6954]

This song is one of my favorites. We usually ask reactors to wait to react to this song till they are familiar with the individual members. Then they are surprised at hearing the switch ups in the voices. Tim who is known for his bass can sing in a beautiful higher tenor voice along with Austin & Rob. And Chance can hit the lower bass notes when needed. Adam did a fabulous job as always with his vocal percussion. The original song is sung by a woman Cam, so they sung it in a higher key to match the original range.

[@GOTGames]

I'm glad I did wait! It made it hit that much harder!

[@andrewhWTL]

Thanks for getting back to Home Free. They do try everything, including the song "Try everything". And yes, I am also joining the chorus for "Brothers in arms".

[@eetienne9158]

They do "Try Everything" justice. My kids love their version.

[@MonguSu1952]

I like what you said about any song that HOME FREE covers is not a cover......it's their original!!! I totally agree

[@GOTGames]

💯❤️

[@brendasorenson6186]

One my favorites by Home Free! Good reaction! Brother or Brothers in Arms

[@louisetemples7011]

Great reaction to an Amazing song and video. I agree, love Tim in his higher register and Chance going down to the basement which he does fairly often when Tim is on lead. These guy's are my favorite band. Home Free never disappoints! They are 🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥♥️😃🍟 Sending love from South Georgia USA

[@robynmatheson7687]

I love your enthusiasm! I highly suggest the following:”End of the Road”, a Rob lead, and he’s at his soulful best. “I Can’t Outrun You”, Chance lead, pure 5 part harmony, and Chance directed the video. It’s hauntingly beautiful. “Champagne Taste ( on a beer budget), a humorous song written by Tim, and he has the lead. “When a Man Loves a Woman”, Austin lead,and the backing vocals and percussion are stellar.

[@rllangevin3841]

Great recommendations for sure! I'd add One Man Band and Brother, as well as Woman, Amen/Female and Heaven.

[@mamabears34]

If you want to really be blown away you have to check out their cover of The Doobie Brothers song Listen to the Music! This one will almost leave you speechless I promise lol Great reaction as always! Happy listening!

[@GOTGames]

Yeah? Happy to! 💯

[@mamabears34]

@@GOTGames You won't be sorry. Love your reactions!

[@debbiehall9091]

Home Free mixes up everything. These guys are so talented and each one can change up. ❤️

[@sharonmortimer3843]

The bass was Adam Chance (Chance) who is actually a bass but normally sings baritone for the group. Most people are shocked by Tim singing so high in the beginning and then Chance's bass at the end. The guys are front row left to right Rob Lundquist lead tenor, Tim Foust bass and Austin Brown sky high tenor. Back row left to right Adam Rupp beatboxer and Adam Chance (Chance) baritone. Truly enjoyed watching your reaction to this song.

[@larrywright4539]

Mayday is a song by female country artist Cam, and is sung in the same key

[@GOTGames]

Will have to check that out as well 💯💯

[@marshac7738]

Besides Tim going up in his range and Chance going down in his, I think the underlying feeling of "different" in this arrangement is that they are singing in a higher key than they normally do. They chose to sing this in its original key as sung by Cam, a female country singer. 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!! ❣️🎼🥰🎶❤️

[@beckiramsey9561]

One of my favorites!🔥🔥🥰 Thanks for the reaction!❤️

This one will really get you with the different vocal roles. Enjoy because it's will blow your socks off. Remember, Tim is their bass. Can I also recommend their version of Listen to the Music? I boogie around doing housework to that one.

[@jonroux9291]

Just my opinion, but I feel that Home Free is the best a capella group on earth.

[@PaulaLPope]

I'd hate to have to choose between them and Pentatonix as to who is best. Fortunately, they have different lanes, so don't compete.

[@GOTGames]

I'd struggle to pick but would definitely say they are one of the best easy! 💯💯

For the future, Heaven and Finally Free. Rob dips into his lower register in Heaven.

[@scottdarden3091]

Glad 😊 you waited

[@mstewart109]

Austin usually gets the lead vocals it seems because of his higher register. Fine with me ! PENTATONIX & HOME FREE ARE AMAZING. TRY VOICE PLAY ALSO. How about some KALEO?? The one from the volcano backdrop or the water are cool for first time

[@alittlegamer7171]

yes, pls do Voiceplay -- as a gaming lover, you'd prob love their cover of 'Enemy' from LOL Arcane series

[@2wheels298]

Seen them do this in concert and they did it just like this... Chance hit that low just like the video sounds.. There is a Live video of them doing this ( one of the concerts I was at ) and they do a beat box break down... This has been one of my favorites since the day they put it out... Hope you check out their live concert version as well...

[@Michael.p.sancomb]

This was incredible! They sounded so good. Such a full sound…from great bass, percussion and other harmonies!

It’s great seeing you react to HF again…love your great attitude. You always put a smile on my face. Thank you. I concur with @Kevin Clements re “Listen to the Music”. Adam (beatboxer) just knocks it out of the park. He and Austin will just make you smile and dance.

[@kristindunstan172]

Austin Brown and Rob Lundquist, the two who usually sing tenor, just released a video of them singing opera on Austin's solo channel. Also, Home Free just released the first video for a song on their new album called "What's Left of My Heart." Both are very good.

[@gk5891]

Tim leading off as a tenor without having to resort to head voice while Chance holds down the bass through the entire song is why people recommend people wait. It's much more impactful if you used to Tim in the basement and Chance singing baritone or low tenor.

[@katjohnson6315]

What a reaction satisfaction!

[@Faith-dq5rz]

The fact that you forget about it being an a capella group. That is the amazing thing about Home Free, Voice Play, and Pentatonix. They are so smooth and seamless that you do forget. Another great song to listen to for Home Free is Snow Globe. Tim Foust actually helped write the song.

[@kristindunstan172]

Yes, that outro line is the one you quoted. It was also the first line Tim sang when the song started. It's great that Chance can take bass whenever Tim takes the lead.

[@kathleenwilson2708]

I really enjoy your reactions to Home Free! Tim Foust which is normally their bass has a five octave range which is showcased in this song and Adam Chance whose is normally their baritone does such a fantastic job on this one and goes down to a low bass note, it’s incredible! Love Home Free❤❤

[@williamcapp448]

Tim sang tenor in one of his previous vocal groups. Chance was the bass for his previous vocal group.

[@sherryschoenlein8951]

Amazing reaction, glad you waited so you could truly understand & appreciate what Home Free did in this song. This is my absolute favorite song from Home Free, & I've loved everything they've done so far, but I personally don't think anything will ever top this one for me. 🍟❤️🍟

[@tygerbrite]

Your reactions to Home Free are some of the best. Hope you'll come back to the group. Two of their classics would be a great place to pick up where you left off, in appreciating their vocal talent: End of the Road and When a Man Loves a Woman.

[@katjohnson6315]

I am with you, young one. This song is my favorite, too. Sad lyrics, but almost a beating heart for the rhythm. I played it ten times the first time and daily since then…oh two or three times! Nice job.

Adam Chance was the bass singer in Street Corner Symphony before he joined Home Free. You might enjoy their version of Madness.

You are now ready for Austin and Tim singing "My Maria," followed by Tim doing "Will You Still Love Me Tomorrow/Stay. "

[@billparrish4385]

I think the reason they recommended you wait a while until you get to know the singers better, wasn't just because it was a strong performance, nor just because they swapped Adam Chance into the bass part, but perhaps mostly becaue Tim Foust, that subterranean singer who can stand toe to toe with Geoff Castellucci of VoicePlay or Avi Kaplan, formerly of Pentatonix, Tim sang that high part in the opening. Fans had jaws hitting the floor when he opened up there and then stayed up there for the entire song. I mean not just bricks, but other assorted masonry as well, plus the tools, dropped simultaneously out of millions of fans' collective backsides at that one. Tim on tenor?! And never did drop down to bass for the entirety of the song, just said, "Here, you take this one, Chance." Amazing!

[@maryhulen7277]

[@steveeverett1736]

I forget when Cam was popular (90's)? but she was big on the country charts for this song as well as Burning House

[@kathrynphelps9771]

Was waiting for the penny to drop, and there it was on Chance's superb bass drop. Go back and listen to the percussion just before that. Adam Rupp at his syncopated best. Stunning. We always say Pentatonix, Voiceplay and Home Free do not do covers, they do upgrades.

[@beadwright]

I would also recommend Folsum Prison Blues. It is a great cover of Johnny Cash's tune.

[@lisaseverance6785]

Another thing that takes a couple watches to notice is the clap sounds. No one is clapping so your brain just thinks they did a clap track but didn't clap in the video. But watch Adam (beatboxer). He tends to move his hands while making his sounds. If you watch him, you will notice that every time it sounds like a single loud clap, he is gesturing in a specific way. So...he is making the sound! It's not until later in the song when the claps speed up that I think they may have used a clap track. But with these guys you can't be sure!

[@patriciavernon9795]

Have you reacted to Brothers in Arms yet? The harmonies in that are spectacular!

[@abipoole2859]

It’s actually kind of a sad song about two people stuck in a relationship that needs to end and seems to have become toxic. You can see it in Austin’s face. He is balancing the more upbeat music with the sad and uncomfortable lyrics. A bit of an unusual piece in my opinion, but we sing about life, and that’s something that definitely happens in life at times.

[@Kazuma_Emiya]

Can’t wait for this man to watch them mojo openings

[@ianp1986]

Found your channel last night and binge watched your Pentatonix and Home Free reactions. I have 3 HF recommendations: Champagne Taste On A Beer Budget, which is one of their original songs, not a cover, All About That Bass and also Guilty Pleasures, which is more of a skit than a song, it’s something they used to do on tour shows so it’s recordings on phones but really funny

[@ianp1986]

I forgot Folsom Prison Blues, The Gambler and American Pie!

[@karenwhite4742]

PLEASE learn their names, and why Mayday is shocking. You needed to know that Tim Foust usually sings very low, and even blows out speakers, but has a five-octave range; it is not surprising that Austin Brown sings so high on this song, as he usually does. He's their high tenor. Rob Lundquist is their classic tenor, and has an amazing, smooth voice. Chance (Adam Chance) startled everyone with his low notes, but he was a Bass for the last group he sang with. Finally, Adam Rupp, the beatboxer, is mind-boggling. He can do anything. Period. If you learn their names, you won't have to call them "this guy" or "the guy in the plaid shirt." You obviously love them, as do we home fries. I would recommend Skull and Bones (written by Chance), Listen to the Music, and Never Gonna Give You Up (another funny one, because you loved Butts Medley). You are going to continue to love this group, and give very great reactions. Thank you!
