Home Free - Castle on the Hill

[@jefferybrinkman2150]

I don't understand why Home Free isn't even more popular than they are! Seriously! I'm not even really a country fan but love what they do.

[@HomeFreeGuys]

Help us share this video! :-)

[@patocountry]

I do not understand either

[@jefferybrinkman2150]

Shared it as soon as I saw it

[@sherrysusan]

prolly b/c they aren't doing the junk that's popular in the current country ... sad how bad it's got ...

[@lojeankiddstapler7762]

Home Free, If I could afford to go I would go to all their Concerts. I have sent information on them to most all my family.

[@jackmandu]

If I were a hit singer I'd be praying, "please, God, don't let Home Free cover one of my songs," cuz I know they'd do it much better than I did.

Ha,ha,ha,...!!! So very true!

[@dontjudgehateme3421]

😂😂 true. I watched the songs blue ain't your colour and Die a happy man . It was much better than the original

[@itaindrawan6216]

agree !

[@5226-p1e]

This might explain the dislikes on all of their videos. Some ppl are really devoted fans, that they are unwilling to have a true listening session.

[@noggie3934]

I think Ed Sheeran would be proud of this version. Speaking as a fan of his.

[@jmaxton]

WOW!!! Call 911 !!! I just O.D.'d on nostalgia! The emotion in this is off the scale!

[@bbsamurai59]

When I first heard this song by Ed Sheeran which is amazing, I thought somebody should do an American country version. This is the first I have heard this and Home Free could not have done it any better 👏🏼

[@beckylynne95]

I am so so so glad Chance is a part of this!! He did an amazing job leading this song!

[@lydiakies9053]

This is a perfect “roll the windows down and sing at the top of your lungs" song. Closed my eyes and smiled through the whole thing. Chance, I am SO GLAD you are a part of Home Free.

[@kamikake9834]

I LOVE HomeFree! Am I the only one that loves the covers because I can finally understand the lyrics to so many songs when they sing them?

[@lpthib]

Nope... I'm totally with you Kami ;)

[@tcmbillay]

You are certainly not alone!!!

[@beverlyoldaker6082]

Understand more of the words with HF then the original singers!!!! Be careful and be safe.

It has more emotion I think. I feel like Chance definitely made this a more heartfelt song.

This is one of those songs that stirs up nostalgia big time. Such a find. Thank you Home Free.

Not a country fan at all!....UNTIL....Home Free appeared on my horizon! What a fabulous group of voices.

[@KatieManiaci]

I can’t even pick one of these guys to crush ❤on. It changes about every two weeks.

[@ItReckzHD]

one word: perfection.

[@davidmoore7563]

Another added to the "Home Free did it Better" list .. simply amazing.

[@unincognito3689]

It’s good but Ed is better.

[@tiffanybuerer5565]

Gah, I really wish I could agree with this, but I think Ed has the much better version. I love the Home Free boys so much, but this is one time that I can't say that I love this version better than the original.

[@winkieandleah]

I'm going to throw in a 3rd candidate for the best version of this. Celtic Thunder's version is stellar as well as this one.

[@morrigankasa570]

@@winkieandleah hmm haven't heard that one. Though my favorite so far is the medley version by The Hound and The Fox. Also though what is consistent for me with all versions including Ed's original is I have to slow it down to 0.75 speed. Seriously fast pace ruins the depth and message and feels of this song.

Thank you :-)

[@melisr5024]

Chance does a spectacular job on this song. He has an awesome voice! It is perfect for this song.

[@lydialefever8372]

I was kinda sceptical of a country acapella group covering an Ed Sheeran, but this is easily the best cover if this song I've ever heard

[@stanethkaki]

It was 6/07/2023 and I'm listening to this 12:58am and tears just running down my eyes at this very late time. Ed sheeran is singing about the country life and also includes all of us in the picture. He is a great singer not singing about himself but about how great everything is in the country. Oh how this song hits me, it hits me so so good ❤😢

[@josephsmith3773]

Never knew Castle on the Hill was a country song in disguise! You guys did it more than just justice. Fantastic! :)

My favorite thing about your music is that it just makes me happy. Whenever I'm having a rough day, I just pull up one of your songs on youtube and instantly feel better. I love how that in every video that you make, each and every one of you just looks like you're having the time of your life, singing at the top of your lungs and having fun together. People like you make the world just a little bit brighter :)

[@cindydanks949]

I can't stop at one sometimes I run the battery down on my phone.

[@sallytilley571]

I do the same thing and they have also got me listening to country music again. It's almost illegal to have this much talent in one group.

[@SlicRickCosplay]

I can’t stop listening to this. Chance’s solo at the end sells it for me.

[@ChibiLiet]

God, this is gorgeous! Your voices harmonize with such power and passion, I admire your singing so much! The way Chance's voice growls on "When we did not know the answers" is utterly heavenly!

But the positive side is while in the hospital I introduced a lot of nurses to your music. Your music helped me through out my hospital stay and beyond. Thank you Donna

I hate country... but I absolutely adore Home Free's country.. Their a capella is just cleaner, purer.. All country should learn from them. Totally a fan.

Every time I hear their music I forget there r no physical instruments playing. Amazing talent to create that kind on sound w all vocals. Crazy talent and the sound stays w u. Better than original.

[@trinawhitehead8281]

I know you have more devoted (or obsessed) than I am . I have listened to almost all songs you have put together. I can’t say all as I don’t believe in absolutes (always, never, forever and so on , there will be exceptions). Here in Rockport Texas I have yet to here of you. In my immediate family I can’t get them to a single song yet. I will keep trying. I saw you sang a song to raise funds for Hurricane Harvey. The eye of this storm went onto land in Rockport Texas. Yet I did not here about it until going through your songs to see which ones I haven’t heard yet. I would like to hear you on the radio. Then someone in my family would almost have to hear you guys. Truly you are all amazing, Rob’s silky voice, Austin’s almost always unrivaled at how you sing. Chance your range and style matches like, oh you know, Tim your voice has yet to crack in any range I,ve ever heard . Last and most understated, Adam. You are the glue and a singer. For the group. I’,m so glad you all have stayed together. Please work toward this. Ok, I have now given you a short story and of course a. SHOUT OUT…lol

[@jessybelike]

OMGGGGGG they turned the song so much more wholesome than it already was!!!!

I stopped listening to the new what they call country music because it's not real country but now that I have found all of you I can't wait to hear Y'all sing. You are all amazing. Love the song too. Congratulations guys it is Great!

[@amyallen7309]

Had the privilage of hearing Home Free live in concert this past weekend in Kansas City. WOW!!!! I was in love with their music before the show but their live performance was AMAZING!! If you have the chance to see them, do so!! Come back to Kansas City guys.... I'm ready for another round! God Bless you all.

I agree 100%. I was lucky enough to catch them twice in my area. Once when Chris was still with them, and once with Chance. I would go a third time, given the opportunity.

Amen. He should be the lead vocal. He's easily got the best voice of the group, and that's saying something.

***** They've all got amaaazing voices, in their own way, but Tim is a stand-out, for me, it's so deeply, warmly rich...Lucky for us, we get to hear all of their goodness!!...Waiting for an ALL originals (mostly Tim's?) album, where they'll finally get the recognition they so deserve!!..They're awesome!!! :)

[@judygrady8014]

What I said about Home Free is the truth. The best of the very best. There's no other A Capella group can hold a candle to Home Free. There should be radio time, awards. When you have excellent work, it should be recognized and awarded.
