[@leslieoneal4464]

Watch during the bridge - it's Adam doing those high tones! 😳❤

[@pennygarrity386]

Once again our guys didn't disappoint. They just kicked ass and took names! They took an iconic song and made it a classic once again. I love the new sounds Adam added and the high notes he was doing and am so glad the bandanas are back lol.

[@karinfichtner7479]

If I were a betting gal....I'd put my money on the Ruppster singing up in the rafters. He has a great tenor range.

[@dagmar.6954]

I actually was thinking the same thing that Adam could be hitting those high notes.

[@melikka808]

I think so too!👍

[@tonyb980]

Yes! If you watch closely you can see him singing it the first time.

[@sandyi79]

In the behind the scenes, it appears to be Austin & Rob.

[@joeschmoe665]

I agree that it was Adam.

[@brendagrothier967]

They may be considered a country vocal band but they should do more classic rock....it really suits their talents.

[@rebeccagibbs8794]

Yes!!! YES!!!

[@miamidolphinsfan]

Yes, Travis they outdid everyone yet again....this is one for the phone playlist for sure. I have been jamming to the Doobie's version since 1972....and they did it again, they just upgraded a CLASSIC !!!!! God bless brother

[@vkinney2000]

That's actually Adam singing the high notes in the break & all I can say is that these guys brought so much energy to this. Love IT!

[@gk5891]

Have they actually stated that or is it an assumption? At this point I've heard it's every member of the group at some point. I'm not saying your wrong just that I think almost any of them are capable and I'm having a really hard time finding any way to confirm.

[@vkinney2000]

@@gk5891 If you watch the video at the break you'll get a couple of glimpses of Adam singing the high notes.

[@dagmar.6954]

@@vkinney2000 I agree, if you watch during the slowed down part you can see Adam in the far right doing the high notes.

[@annebiebrich9155]

I just can't believe this isn't on the radio and a #1 hit! CMA award....best New artist and best Single !

[@bessiesobjack8647]

What a great idea!!!! 🎼🔥🎶🦋🎵

Let the music play! Home Free is just the best❣️🎼🥰🎶❤️

[@annebiebrich9155]

That is Adam Rupp on those super high dream-like notes

[@jordansherman]

ITS ADAM with those high notes.They're amazing

[@bobbie1st]

I think this is the best they have ever sounded. Didn't think it was possible for them to get any better but this song....! I grew up listening to the Doobies and loved this song but Home free put a spin on it that made it even better.

[@miamidolphinsfan]

Wanna get a party going,,,,,,play this....folks will be dancing for sure. Travis would this be an excellent concert starter ?

[@tinasmallwood9546]

Travis, Rupp was doing those crazy high music notes! I bet he can sing his a$$ off. We all know his brother Chris can sing.. betcha he can too

[@bethcoussou]

This is a phenomenal cover! The Doobie Brothers are from my generation, and I think Home Free brought it home and made it their own! I love the original and Home Free’s cover! This was like a party happening! It’s hard to keep still while listening to this one! I also think that they need to do more Rock! This one didn’t even sound like Country at all. They sometimes put a little Country flavor in most covers, but this was right in my wheelhouse: Classic Rock!

[@reginaminton1135]

Austin is perfect for the lead. Adam is beyond amazing. Tim's bass is so good.. Rob and Chance hold it all together. The song just makes you want to move with the music. Thanks for a great reaction.

[@tbruce8187]

4:10 Who is singing way up there? If you pause the video at 4:06 you can see it's Adam Rupp

[@lindanearing4710]

The amount of music is astonishing in and of itself, but the most amazing thing is that it's ALL AMAZING!! These guys bring the joy, excitement, creativity, and energy every stinkin' time!. My life would be much less colorful and happy without these talented and skilled men and their fabulous music in it. Love them so much. Adam's beat boxing in this especially blew me away. I could be wrong, but I think that was Adam doing the "way up there." He's got a more impressive voice than people realize.

[@bobbywheeler4810]

I completely dig your positivity and general demeanor Travis!! Thanks for the great reaction!

[@bettyjblake]

This was such a fun cover. I have listened to it at least 5 times a day!!! It's has its own vibe! Adam let it all out. Pretty sure it's Adam with the high tones. And I love when he scratches toward the end... it sound so good!!

[@ruthcurfman7532]

I think it's Adam with those high notes at the bridge, too. And those drums!!

[@minneyruth]

My favorite right now 😍🔥

[@johnmurray3161]

Travis I LOVE your reactions! You are always so enthusiastic and upbeat. You do a great job!!!

[@TeaTimeWithTravis]

Thank you so much!!

[@wendyhallman8989]

Props to Adam (Rupp) and Tim for driving this whole song!! Amazing, incredible vocals, especially Austin in the lead role, and the total polished performance that Home Free gives time after time after time. I keep looking for the instruments and they're never there!!

[@debbiecrawford7925]

We love everything they do. It's always the best until the next one. I agree. Great reaction

[@Graniepanies]

Rupp was hitting the high notes . He’s a tenor with a range higher then Rob, but not higher then Austin 🥰

[@rebeccagibbs8794]

Yes! And, may I add, I adore your moniker!!! 😁

[@Graniepanies]

@@rebeccagibbs8794 thank you Rebecca 🌻

[@jillchamberlain6478]

I love the song the way the Doobie Brothers did it, but they ain’t got nothin’ on Home Free!!! My new favorite!! Thanks for a great reaction.

[@sallyread7032]

Love this!!! Listening to it over & over!!! This is FIRE!!!! This is PERFECTION!!!

[@susanhorn4325]

I love this latest drop from Home Free. Loved the Doobie Brothers original too. And Adam Rupp killed it!

[@beverlybrantley5659]

That was Adam doing the high note slide. If you look right before they start clapping you can see him do it. Thank you.

[@cmitchell7347]

As always, great reaction, Travis. Was big fan of Doobie Bros and this song waaay back in college. This HF version is freaking awesome! Tim's bass was no less than fantastic, as expected. Adam's percussion was crazy perfection (and as he does so often....rockin' the bandana :) ). Sometimes feel as though Chance's contribution to their rich, full sound doesn't receive the credit it's due. Wonderfully blended harmonies with Rob in the background.

[@mjackson780]

I agree. Chance is a valuable asset to the group but isn't given the credit he is do. He is a talented and artistic fellow!!

[@JoanN63]

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 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.🥰🥰

[@louisetemples7011]

Thank you Travis! So much fun and so much talent! I agree 💯% with you that this is absolutely total fire! 🤯🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🤘♥️

[@scottrogers7242]

You keep forgetting Chance is also singing chorus with Rob. Give the man his props please.

[@colleenleavitt1777]

I loved this one too!! 🥰 It was amazing...and such a great feel good, movin and groovn song! Tim's baseline in the chorus was so cool and Adam's beatboxing was dope! Another hit from Home Free. 👍😁

[@lauriedaiken4426]

Well, that was an awesome trip back to my childhood! They did a fantastic job - thanks Travis!!

[@CarlaDelk]

Great reaction! Another epic Home Free cover/upgrade to this classic! Thank you for your reaction!

[@TammyM62]

Wow! They took a classic rock song and made it their own. Very well done!!! My favorite song from them so far!!! Thanks Travis for your awesome reaction!!!

[@sandrafryer4425]

My favorite of all time. They were on fire. Great job home free

[@melissacoorston3121]

"Who was singing way up there?" Watch it again and keep an eye on Adam Rupp...it was him. Honestly Adam may have the best octave range in Home Free. Remember his No-monica solo in Workin' for a Livin'...his last note in that solo was even higher.

[@melikka808]

Yes...particularly at the bridge part, you can see him doing it.

[@kmwwrench]

It's interesting that you said you would have thought they did this long ago. I was just out of college when the Doobies did this and never in a million years did I think Home Free would do it. But I'm so glad they did. Just makes me smile. And chair dance. And sing at the top of my lungs. It seems like they can sing anything. Waiting for some Jim Croce.

[@hamblinta]

There’s a lot of stuff going on of theirs and then there’s the chorus that sounds so close to the original, it’s amazing as usual. Adam Rupp is other worldly also as usual.

[@kareng1894]

This is awesome. Thank you ^_^

[@marthacrowley1644]

If you keep an eye on Adam you can see that he's the one making that kind of other worldly ethereal sound

[@louisetemples7011]

I forgot to mention that today is Tim's birthday! Yep, getting better and better!

[@sharonmortimer3843]

This one of my favorites too. It brings back so many great memories. Truly enjoyed watching your reaction to this song.

[@vickiadkins9844]

Adam is singing that high note !!

[@gk5891]

Lot of discussion about those high notes. I've got a feeling they may be Chance (He is singing above Rob in the harmonies). Easy to forget he has a 4 octave range with all the talent here. Hopefully they will tell us at some point.

[@patriciavernon9795]

I ❤️ your reactions, they are are so much fun! And you look like you’d be a blast to dance with 😀

[@nanadeborah8717]

Adam Rupp, extraordinaire, is those super high notes!

[@denise_landry]

Your reaction was everything I hoped it would be! Thanks Travis! ♥️🍟

[@kimking6036]

I keep waiting for them to do a song I don't like. But it never happens. I just absolutely love them. Another new one is called, Brothers.

[@christyeckert3115]

They did o good with this Can't wait to see them live and meet them in October

[@dragonmusher]

Haha..I think those real high notes were actually Chance!! He's the one that usually does the electric harp and guitar songs when Austin is busy..like in this song. So guessing that Chance did those. Rob was pretty good. Its my new favorite. Love love love the original Doobie Bros. tune but...Adam Rupp tho...he's just King of the World in this...just excuse me while I do the "We're not Worthy!" cus omg. Awesome song...Tim nailing that bass line like some sort of machine. Just so much amazeballs about this!

[@freadadillon4071]

I have it on a loop. I can't stop listening to it.

[@ruthcurfman7532]

Enjoyed your facial expressions - especially at Adam's record scratching.

[@margfried8796]

I think those high notes are actually Austin layered in. I recently asked him about the high notes in the background when he is singing in From Here to the Moon and back. He told it was him layered in as well as those high bell tones in other songs even when he is singing.

[@dawnreitenbach7111]

That was awesome!

[@owenjohnson5333]

I love this song by them

[@marlahudgins7038]

Kudos to all the guys but WHOA Adam!!!!! Adam is blowing me away HOME FREE did a great job of modernizing this 1972 DOOBIE BROTHERS classic song.

[@shortybarnesyanik]

I just saw them for the first time back in June in Cincinnati!! I took my 13 yr old son! We had a blast! It was a great show! If you get the chance you should definitely go!

[@conniestone2806]

Man it feels great to see you looking so good and happy and smiling! I hope that's inside too cause it sure shows in this. The song is awesome, but the guys killed it didn't they? I have been waiting for you to do this cause I knew you'd love it!!! Love your set there, hadn't seen it yet or some reason. Forget where you live -- I agree, you MUST get to a live show. We are over the top thrilled they are coming to Portland, OR again and we will be there, Sept 23! You take care and know we are all here waiting for your reactions! Take care.

[@nightthornkvala94132]

Actually 3 Home Free related videos got dropped the same day. 15 minutes after this one premiered Austin dropped Georgia On My Mind. Beautiful vocals from that Georgia boy, beautiful scenery filmed by Amberly. Austin and Amberly's non-music site The Beauty and The Bass also dropped a video, the latests of them raising a couple of tadpoles they got from their pond into frogs in their aquarium and releasing them back into the pond on their land. Looks like a GRAND TRIFECTA! to me.

[@belinda9696]

It's my favorite right now, although I love everything they do, this is my new favorite and probably will be until their next song drops. I hope you do get to go to a concert, I'm sure they will come around close to you at some point. I'll drive 1 or 2 states away to see these guys sometimes and it's worth it.

[@JulieAnn02261990]

They are posting new shows all the time. They're coming back to Akron in October, I saw them there in 2018, it's an experience I highly recommend! Take a road trip to Akron, tickets just went on sale and they have some good seats and VIP still available.

[@dagmar.6954]

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.

[@anitawright7169]

They are so awesome! It does not get better than this. Love your reaction! Tim Foust is having his birthday bash in Tennessee live streamed. You can tickets on Patreon. It is going to be this Friday. I got mine and can' wait! Austin will be there as well as Jeffrey East and many others.

[@rebeccacallaghan2676]

That's Adam Rupp hitting those high notes.

[@michaellehtonen9020]

Pentatonix also has a more current version of Hallelujah from the last one you reacted to (it was after Avi left the band). I think you'd enjoy that newer version as well, although it's a couple years old by now. Chris Rupp who was one of the founding members of Home Free (you see him in the earlier videos), but left a couple years ago for a solo career has a channel worth checking out as well. There is a song called Movin' On that Chris Rupp did on his own channel by himself and he also did while he was with home free which is on their channel as well. It's a very moving song. Chris and Adam also do a song called Angles among us on Chris' solo channel which is quite moving.

[@debbiehall9091]

This is a killer. These guys can't do anything wrong.

[@robynmatheson7687]

I loved this song in 1972, and I love this version. It might be fun for you to check out the original to see how creative HF is with their version. I think HF really brings out the joyful positivity of the lyrics.

[@marleiaisenhoward1891]

Great video!!! Killed it

[@adwenb]

Ruppster is going high and Tim is covering the beatboxing during that time.

[@MooreCEJr]

Great reaction Travis can never go wrong with Home Free and Doobie Brothers. The high note may be Adam the Beatboxer (there was no percussion when they went to that phrase) He is known to hit very high notes like he did in Helplessly Hoping and How Great Thou Art.... I'd put money on it.

[@rebeccagibbs8794]

...@ 4:19, you froze, lol! It's that good, y'all!!! But, you recovered, like we all did, and started dancing!!! Listen to the Music...literally!!!😁
