This boy can just GO OFF TO THE SKY ...... so killer a vocal talent and natural bluesy delivery .... just mind blowing ! GBjj

[@kaylanichols7343]

Most romantic? Yes. Between his vocals and the way he looks at the camera, I'm melting.

[@donnarice9965]

The fact that you do not pause is THE reason why I kept coming back to you in the beginning. I want to hear the song, not just three or four notes at a time! Thanks Barry!!

[@i.luv.2.teach.78]

We know if you really like the way a song is sung by the difficulty you have in speaking during the review. 😊 I agree with your assessment. This is probably THE most romantic version of this song that I have ever heard! 😊

[@billiemchone6683]

Oh my God that was unbelievably beautiful!!! 😮❤❤❤

[@vinnieblair8576]

This was recorded during the pandemic so each artist recorded his vocals in his home. Only Austin was in studio singing to his girlfriend. Home Free produced some great work during Lockdown, making the best use of available technology.

[@JoanN63]

Yes, Austin nailed it. He gives himself completely here and also plays very well with the cameras. The great harmonies, deep bass and the unbelievably freaking good beatboxing/vocal percussion/vocal sounds finish it all off for me. I think it sounds perfect because of all the different beautiful voices. I grew up performing Percy Sledge which I already loved. Then came Michael Bolton's performance where I couldn't say it was better. But this one from Home Free certainly is.

[@stanrock2225]

Well, this is maybe the best version out there. Wow. They just never miss

[@joanwharff6483]

A little note…Tim had been after Austin to sing this as he knew he was Perfect for this song…&, he finally relented….are we glad.???…..you bet your booty 🙃😁🥰😉🎵🔥‼️

[@creationsbychancecan]

Love your reactions Barry. This is one of my favorite songs and Home Free slays it.

[@lisamcbride8921]

I could see you itching to sing along! That was so cute, however you were singing with you eyebrows! Lolol. ❤

[@susanbasl4033]

I love what a "flirt" Austin is while singing this! His Musical theater training is shining through!

[@patriciamcl54]

Believe me Susan, some men need no training to flirt with or without a camera!

[@drieuxkoeppel8152]

He’s singing to his lady, Amberly. She was behind the camera…

[@stillrocknthissideofthedir141]

this is the only way I figured that maybe you will read this and give this performer a listen. I highly recommend a reaction video of Dan Vasc's Amazing Grace you will thank me.

[@patrickhumphreys5851]

Austin is singing to his better half sitting behind the camera miss Amberly is her name and the rest of the boys are singing to their wives and what a great performance of these guys. Great reaction brother.

[@TerGar1000]

Also, his body language and obvious easy comfort reaching these notes are so fantastic in this too. (Also, his solo version of Bring Him Home from Les Miserables is soooo amazing)

[@carolburnett190]

I wouldn’t listen to this for weeks because I didn’t think ANYONE could do it justice after Percy Sledge. Silly me!! Home Free always brings it and Austin is the perfect person for this song!! Austin’s lady, Amberly, was behind the camera so we all got to see how he looks at her. Thanks for coming back around to Home Free!

[@nancyholter5646]

I was skeptical, too. Especially after Bolton's attempt. But Austin really did it up well.

[@lisamcbride8921]

Yes, make a video of you singing this, we would love to see it and listen to it sweetie!

[@cattsunn]

I Can't Outrun You. Is a great Home Free cover sung by Chance. He also directs the video. The harmonies are divine!

[@AnneMajdosz]

WOW! What a great voice Austin has! Amazing that there are no instruments, the beatboxing is perfect. Thank you Barry☘ for reacting to this song and for introducing me to Home Free!

[@patriciamcl54]

Welcome to our rabbithole, Anne!

[@doloresburns3301]

This is the best version I've heard...and I thought nobody could be better than Percy! Remember, this was done during quarantine where each of them did their part separately and their incredible production crew put it together. Some of their others in quarantine are Folsom Prison Blues and The Gambler.

[@patriciamcl54]

And don't forget my own favourites, Moonshine and Everybody Walking This Land.

[@lindawarden-burglund9603]

Flawless! Austin's perfect solo, brilliant backup vocals, amazing beatboxing! My favorite cover of this song by a mile!!! Thank you Barry! I love being able to listen to the whole song first before your reaction. 💙

[@randyhawley7202]

Thanks for your delightful reaction Barry ! Austin was definitely the right choice as the lead in this song for Home Free - he SLAYS it ! And I am certain this is my favorite rendition of this song. I thank you on behalf of Home Free for bringing their music to your subscribers - I love their music and want more people to enjoy hearing it !

[@nancysoukup6545]

Another awesome song from Home Free. ❤

[@joyceroberts3886]

Austin gives this song his everything, from his toes to his eyebrows and everything in between to belt this song fabulously. The back up vocals didn't drown him out but only accentuated the power behind Austin's voice. I loved, loved, loved, Percy Sledge's version when I was a teenager, but Home Frees version is a very close second. Thanks for reacting to this song Barry

[@donnastupka7507]

Austin murdered this one! Love Homefree! Great reaction!🤠❤🤠

[@jeffreyjacobs390]

Even PERCY SLEDGE would tell you THIS GROUP, THIS AUSTIN BROWN, High Tenor phenomenally making it his own .... BEST VERSION by far !

Awesome cover of this song. Love me some Home Free, and PTX. Would absolutely love it if you would react more to VoicePlay. You would love their cover of "Hoist the Colors" from Pirates of the Caribbean.

[@chris...9497]

The lead is outstanding; soulful, full of passion and commitment. Austin knocks it out of the park, yet makes it sound both effortless and spontaneous. The beatboxer Adam grounds the song and gives it structure, in a supportive way. I'm only now learning how his mike-ing (carried out like an actual drum kit) roots the percussive illusion and improves the sound, but the beatboxing itself is extraordinary. The harmonies...

[@vickiadkins9844]

Austin's the man!

[@cheryllohr8779]

I LOVE that you listen to the entire video frist then replay for the reaction. .

[@dawnmanzetti1633]

Percy Sledge must be smiling 😊

[@dbrinkm1]

At 76 and having played coronet, trumpet and baritone since age 11, I have some since of musical tones and scales. This was sparkling and the vocal harmonies were superb. Austin's vocal delivery was as close to perfection as one could achieve. This performance goes way over the top and we will be hard pressed to find a better version of same. I love your analysis and I have listened to this about 60 times and do not get exhausted but only want to hear more. db

[@d.h.a.2700]

I grew up loving Percy Sledge. Transferred a bit to Michael Bolton..but Austin has won me over. Home Free!!

[@jankreps5115]

Austin has such an amazing voice!! They made this video during quarantine if I’m not mistaken! So well done… Did you listen to Austin singing unchained melody when it’s just him and Sebastian! Another stunning moment!!

[@jankreps5115]

Also listen to seventh Avenue singing this! The group put together by Adam Rupp’s brother Chris rep! Both sing as that’s their sister Tristan! Another absolutely beautiful version!!

[@mrsmissy2669]

OMG, I thought he was singing to me, there is so much feeling put into his performance of this beautiful song. Thanks for the wonderful reaction and review.

[@tracyallshouse2730]

I always love your reactions ❤ this time no different LOVED IT‼️‼️🤗 Thank you Barry‼️❣‼️❣

[@wileydr]

They did an amazing job on this. From what I understand Austin’s long time girlfriend was behind the camera. He was singing it to her (maybe why you thought it a so romantic version). For a spiritual uplifting listen to them do How Great Tho Art. It’s simply beautiful.

[@patriciamcl54]

Actually at that time Austin and Amberly hadn't been together long, so were completely loved up (though it's clear that almost 3 years later he still feels the same). For a long time Amberly didn't realise that her friend Austin was crazy about her or that her own feelings were changing, hence the great rush of joy we can hear in the song.

[@ginnyhager4274]

Barry I just love your reactions. Your appreciation for both Pentatonics and Home Free are amazing to us a cappella nuts. A side note on this particular song is that they did it during the pandemic when everyone was in their own home. Each did their part and then they combined it together for this great version.

[@anitawright7169]

Austin killed this! Percy Sledge would be so very proud! Not to mention the background vocals and beat boxing! Love your reaction!

[@jeannettestogner5164]

Perfect description of Austin's vocal styling - "sparkling"! And there's an excellent reason why this was the most romantic version of this song you've heard - Austin's lady love, Amberlyn, was in the studio with him as he recorded the song! This was one of the many videos they did during the quarantine - they recorded their parts separately, and they were then mixed together. They were very creative with their quarantine videos!

[@dagmar.6954]

Austin did a fabulous job of this classic song. Loved Percy Sledge's version, but this was taken to another level. I think it is also better than Michael Bolton's version. And remember this was done during quarantine, so the guys weren't even together. The backing harmonies are great, along with Tim's bass. And Adam's vocal percussion is outstanding. Drummers have often commented on just how realistic his sound is. This is why these guys are my favorite a cappella group.

[@kristindunstan172]

I don't remember if you have reacted to their Sing-Off performances, but one thing Jewel said at one point was that Austin had those high notes in spades but seemed to shy away from them. I dare say he isn't shying away from the anymore.

[@patriciamcl54]

What Jewel may not have realised was that the producers kept wanting endless rehearsal of the high stuff until Austin was lucky to escape permanent damage to his voice. By the time a song came to performance, he was probably worried about the top notes and that came over as shying away. In any case, in the finale she praised the fact that he no longer sounded afraid of the high stuff.

[@SonjaWitbooi-f4t]

Always giving us twice the pleasure! Thank you Barry👍

[@mjackson780]

It is amazing how well this turned out considering it was done during COVID lock down and they were in different states at the time.

[@patriciamcl54]

By the time this came out they had mastered the techniques of recording separately in their homes and their producer Darren Rust is a genius at putting it all together.

[@antoniamartinez3085]

Love his voice! Wow!❤❤

[@SA-hf3fu]

I completely agree with you. I've always loves Percy's version but this one has become my new favorite. HOW do they do it? HOW do they improve nearly every song they cover??? Great reaction and review!

[@jordansherman]

[@lschoenrank]

That's so funny - a reviewer almost lost for words because he's too awestruck by the performance. Love it. And I really enjoy your reviews - even your expressions.

[@klevesmith]

My wife and I saw Home Free live December of 2022 and just got tickets to see them again this coming April. They're just a good live. You should review Tim's solo Doo Wop album, and Austin and Rob do Opera!

[@ArleneAdkinsZell]

Oh thank you, been waiting for this one! Love your reaction, they did such fun quarantine videos, Austin's flirting with the camera was definitely a plus and the guys were all fabulous.

[@JustPlanoRick]

Barry, I find myself just smiling throughout your reactions and this was no exception! Excellent! I agree with your assessment - I never thought anyone could outshine Percy Sledge on this one; however.... You are quickly becoming one of my very favorite reactors and this Texan wants to say, "Keep 'em coming!"

Austin just slayed this song. And was brilliantly supported by Adam's percussion and the guys' backup vocals. And you still need to check out VoicePlay! Vocally, they are on the same level as PTX and Home Free, but have their own unique style... a little more theatrical. Their Wicked Medley is incredible!

[@donnarice9965]

[@vegaswillie]

Barry, your reaction was perfect. Once in a while, less is more. This was one of those times. So great job by you Barry. This song has been all about Percy Sledge for 55+ years. Rightfully So. UNTIL TODAY. Percy Sledge would be proud of this. You won't find a better cover of this. I know,I know, Michael Bolton. His version was fantastic. When the Bolton version is put up against Percy & Home Free it is a distant third place. As for deciding which is better between Percy and Home Free, it comes down to what style you feel like listening to that day. They're both incredible. Good job Barry. As usual.
