Love, love, love, Mary Did You Know by Home Free!

[@deborahhodges342]

My favorite!!! Tim and Austin. Omg makes me melt.

[@cindylawrence1200]

How gorgeous!So cute to hear our southern voices.

[@juliamangan9475]

The man in the cowboy hat is Chris Rupp. He is Adam's brother. The two brothers started home free about 20 years ago. When Chris left to have a solo career he was there to help pick out his replacement... Adam Chance.

[@jenniferlandry5767]

That guy, in the hat, is Chris Rupp, the founder of the group, he is Adam Rupp the beatboxer's older brother. He left a while back to concentrate on his solo projects and that's when Adam Chance joined the group. Chance's voice definitely changed the sound of the group as his voice is naturally lower and less bright than Chris's. I love both iterations of the group sound!

[@Qmocean]

"That guy" is Chris Rupp, Adam's brother and original member. Chance replaced him 6 years ago when he went solo.

[@minneyruth]

That's what I said too " don't look at me like that " LOL

[@larryfisher7056]

Austin"s little wink at the end shows he knows he nailed it....

[@lynnjulian5491]

Jarvis, you are wonderful. I'm looking for all your reactions.

[@ruthcurfman7532]

I've commented on other's reactions, but I LOVE Austin's nose scrunches! lol

[@aprilebert157]

"Do You Hear What I Hear" is a must for you by Home Free. The percussion alone will have you out of your chair. I love your reactions so much. You make me happy 😊.

[@Bamboozled808]

YES!!

[@Angie-yt1ki]

Yes please!

[@FenchurchDent42]

My absolute favorite version of the song!

[@atowngirl]

It’s the only version of this song I like!

[@loristorms4383]

1,000,000% agree!

[@4classtime]

Home free....Do you hear what I hear. A must! Another older one, with Adam's brother Chris instead of Chance.... And... Adam did the attachment. As always, love to watch your face when you hear something you were really hoping would be there ...and it turns out to be even better. Very cool to see all of the appreciation you have for the artists you review. 💜

[@sherrettemccarthy5703]

An old one, but so beautiful.

[@wilIis]

don't look at me like that, lmao same bro

[@angelabarazzone7899]

Do You Hear What I Hear, Snow Globe, Go Tell it On the Mountain and Mary Did You Know by them is 🔥

[@momD612]

Yes! Yessss!!! All those. 🥰

[@ettibz013]

Your face at Austin's last note... Priceless

[@sandym6760]

The guy you asked about is Chris Rupp, who founded the group with his brother Adam. Chance came in to replace Chris, when he left the group.

[@tommurphree5630]

I believe Oh Holy Night is the most beautiful song ever written. The words and the music.

[@charleneclaassen]

HF dropped MARY DO YOU KNOW yesterday. Everybody shines, but Austin looked like he was glowing from within when he sang solo. So much peace and warmth in his expression. You have to hear it. The highs are gonna floor you and the basses (not Tim) are going to make you melt. All this while still staying true to the lyrics. Enjoy

[@pnwcruiser]

Home Free's rendition of "Do You Hear What I Hear" is remarkably creative, plus vocally remarkable, and don't miss their rendition of "Auld Lang Syne" come new year. They even make that simple tune sound spectacular.

[@dianadickerson749]

Do you hear what I hear is Adam Rupp's arrangement, it is phenomenal! Pretty much the only version I listen too.

[@charleneclaassen]

I never tire of listening to this rendition. I was just smiling (listening to your comments about this at the start of this song) knowing what was about to hit you.

[@abbynormal4740]

Ikr? I was thinking, just wait for it... 😉😁

[@melodieclay1739]

HF just released the best version of “Mary Did You Know” since Mark Lowry’s original. 🎼🥰

[@dianadickerson749]

Considering Tim did the arrangement , the millions of views, This is my favorite version ever. Thanks for the "surprise " reaction, loves it.

[@anitapaulus937]

They just released “Mary Did You Know?”. Beautiful!

[@tparmenter]

Children go where I send thee and Do you hear what I hear? are incredible.

[@wbish3]

If I'm remembering the story correctly this is the first song Tim ever arranged and while he was in high school. He didn't even know how to write it out yet so he had to sing every part for someone else to put on paper. Great reaction.

[@elizabethgould6122]

WOW 😲😲😳😲😳❣️❣️🍟🍟🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥

[@lrfcowper]

Home Free has so many awesome Christmas songs. Collaborations with Texas Hill (Go Tell It On the Mountain), Kenny Rogers (Children Go Where I Send Thee), Alabama (Christmas in Dixie), the Oak Ridge Boys and Jeffrey East (Beautiful Star of Bethlehem); originals by Tim ("Full of Cheer" and "Snow Globe") and Austin ("Warmest Winter" and "Cold Hard Cash for Christmas"); and some amazing classics like "Do You Hear What I Hear?" (arranged by Adam), "Silent Night", and "Mary Did You Know" (and for a laugh "Grandma Got Run Over by a Reindeer"). Lots of good stuff.

[@susansundaram6737]

One of my favorites is "What Child Is This" six singers in a cave.

[@lrfcowper]

@@susansundaram6737 Yes! There's so many. I was just watching the behind-the-scenes video to that and laughing my butt off at the impromptu Footloose, the shadow monsters, the bad singing, and opera singer Austin.

[@doloresmccartney3186]

David Phelps “ O Holy Night “ it’s a wow.

[@paulbusbey6241]

This rendition of this song is one of my favorite things I've ever heard. Your understanding of music is revealed in the things that you appreciated about this song. This thing punches you right in the soul, amiright?

[@carinalindberg7377]

The guy you asked about, with the cowboy hat, is Chris Rupp, founder of this remarkable group. He left the group in May 2016 and Chance replaced him. Chris is Adam's brother. Without him we wouldn't have Home Free today and Adam wouldn't be beatboxing. Chris is extremely talented and has a lot different projects going on. Chris did most of the arranging and his arrangement of Angels We Have Heard on High is supremely executed by Home Free. Thanks for the reaction, Jarvis! 🥰🙏

[@djfromfla3105]

The gentlemen that you were wondering who he was is Chris Rupp he is the beatboxer Adam Rupps' brother. He is an original of Home Free before Adam CHANCE took over a few short years later. Adam and Chris were the ones that started the group. Thanks for your reaction on this. Such a fantastic job Home Free did with this biblical classic.

[@jackmandu]

Chris was in Home Free way more than a few short years. Chris, Adam, and company started the group at the beginning of 2001. Chris didn’t leave until May 2016, so he was in the group for over 15 years before Adam Chance took his place for the last 5 and a half years.

[@djfromfla3105]

@@jackmandu You're right....I know I made it seem like a shorter time then it was...lol My bad on that....thank you though for added info. I appreciate that.

[@jackmandu]

@@djfromfla3105 - You’re welcome. I just like to keep the record straight. Some of my favorites Home Free songs are from the earlier albums, like Kickin It Old School from 2009 which has a lot 50s/60s tunes. It’s pre-Tim and Austin, but original member Matt Atwood does a good job on lead and their bass at the time, Elliot Robinson, is excellent. Elliot takes the lead on King of the Road and kills it. I also like Blue Moon, Under the Boardwalk, and Stand By Me (withRob on lead).

[@katyb9532]

Head to toe goose bumps on the final "divine"! Both hands in the air and holding on! Loved this reaction!

[@flutesong5527]

Imagine choosing to start 'O Holy Night" with a bass! That's just so bold

[@PizzaHutCEO]

Contrast is king in my opinion. It really helps highlight the ending with Austin.

[@csutton161]

Home Free is one band/vocalists that make me want to listen to Christmas music. What a perfect rendition, such beautiful harmonies.

[@pammiller812]

This is an old video. The gentleman on the back left is Chris Rupp, the founder of Home Free. He left the group in 2016 to pursue a solo career. I believe he is a baritone, but he also sings in the higher range.

[@lrfcowper]

Yes, Chris sang baritone in the group, though his voice type is actually Tenor 2, so he was really reaching when he needed to drop down to cover bass when Tim was doing lead (though he has a pretty impressive range).

[@phillipjohnson437]

Check out Beatiful Star of Bethlehem with the Oak Ridge Boys...

[@margfried8796]

Thank you for another great reaction. You always point out things interesting things.

[@cenewton3221]

Back again jan 2023 ... Greatest a capella song ever. ... Change my mind?

[@christyeckert3115]

This gives me goosebumps everytime. Beautiful

[@DyvmSlorm]

My favorite Home Free songs are the ones that begin simply and just keep building until the final resolution. They are masters of adding complexity after complexity. We should start a fund to help support dentists who need to deal with broken jaws as everyones jaw can only drop so far .

[@carinalindberg7377]

Lol 🤣

[@chrismorin1318]

🤣🤣🤣

[@ronfuqua2117]

the bell tone Tim and Adam were doing were outstanding

[@elblancodiablo6217]

my fav Christmas song. I hear angel voices.

[@halh5926]

Thank you, Jarvis.

[@daventunes3822]

I think part of the "immaturity" in the beginning is because Tim is doing lead and Chris Rupp is covering the bass. Chris doesn't have the depth in his low range that Adam Chance does when he takes over the bass. Once they go back to the more typical blend with Tim in the bass, they hit their stride, as you noted. Having no percussion also may have contributed to that different feel, as well as the fact that Adam Rupp singing gives them another high tenor, so the first verse was way more in everyone's head voice.

[@rimaluisa]

its because they chose to start it simple. its not because of whose covering the bass. comparison is unfair and unnecessary. everyone is great on their own and they are wonderful together.

[@barbrakowsky1867]

Loved your reaction. This is the best version of this song I have ever heard.

[@pattymelt5525]

Oh!!!!!! Grandma Got Run Over By A Reindeer is a must and hysterical!!! 🤣

[@suehbing]

Angels we have heard on high!!!! Grandma got run over by a reindeer....awesome reactions! Sue

[@maryschaffer3918]

I love your joy when you hear beautiful music

[@Corey1082000]

Don't look at me like that!

[@jq8216]

How good were they then, NOW oh my, pure gold, everything an aspiring singer should hope to be ❤

[@ladylauraanne]

my favorite version of my favorite Christmas song! I cry every single time! so beautiful

[@conniestone2806]

Loved your reaction!!! Tim arranged this one when he was young, one of his first he said. He brought it out when he realized what Austin could do with it. It's interesting too because I think we forget without Adam doing the beat box they are even more out there with no beat or "accompaniment" just their gorgeous voices and each other to stay on pitch and bless us! Austin just killed this as he can and always does with that voice of his. Did you ever watch their live performance of Les Miserables (Bring Him Home) where Austin gets the chance to show his classical training? mesmerizing and leaves you speechless for moments after. Thanks again for your great enthusiasm you bring! Take care.

[@martic51]

They are beyond fabulous! Love them!!!

[@JohnBare747]

Watching an older video of theirs it's always surprising to see a seemingly 12 year old Austin.

[@kimcarpenter7980]

Please put Do you hear what I hear, snow globe and go tell it on the mountain from home free on your list to react to!

[@stanrock2225]

This is great. More Home Free soon. They are killing it.

[@jake91405]

Homw Free did an amazing job on Mary Did You Know!

[@patriciawoyczik1657]

My all-time favorite! You should check out a live video for this...its even more breathtaking ....I've seen it live!

[@dianadickerson749]

Looking forward to their concert on the 16th in Mankato, Mn. Sister fell in love in July at their Deadwood concert.

[@WoobieHugs]

Love your reaction to one of the most beautiful Christmas songs ever done by Home Free. They're always pretty flipping amazing but this one... makes me tear up and my soul soar every single time. This was my father's favorite Christmas song, and he's been gone 36 years, but I still listen to this song throughout the year, but especially at/near Christmastime, because it keeps so many memories of him alive. Please, PLEASE react to Mary Did You Know (by Home Free) - they dropped their rendition yesterday, and it is PHENOMENAL!

[@carolinpettit7944]

I do love your enthusiasm and knowledge! "That guy" is Chris Rupp, brother of Adam, who originally started HF. He left to pursue other options and Adam Chance (Chance) joined the group. Thanks for an awesome reaction!

[@diannakroeger9936]

A super great video to watch for Christmas would be Voctave singing oh come all ye faithful. The tenor is absolutely amazing as well as the rest of the group. You will not be disappointed in fact you will be flabbergasted!!!!

[@joanwharff6483]

Yes, this was when Chris Rupp was still in the group…..(Adam’s brother). He left in 2016, that’s when Chance came aboard. And, he was an AWESOME choice 🥰🔥‼️

[@tassilo5949]

This wonderful song was the first thing I heard from Home Free last Christmas. Since then, these five uniquely talented guys haven't let me go.

[@pattymelt5525]

The guy in the hat is Adam’s (beat boxer) brother and the founder of the group. He left several years ago but is still close with them.

[@louisetemples7011]

LOVE YOUR REACTION! PHENOMENAL! On the drop from yesterday it also has a Lot of amazing percussion from Adam Rupp! So beautiful and with a little extra Home Free flavor with a dose of special sauce!

[@d.h.a.2700]

Your reactions are always entertaining. Do you hear what I hear is my favorite..extraordinary harmonies and key changes.

[@renaesmith5528]

OMG...lol....you scared me a little at the end..lol. I thought, oh no, he thinks its over...I was afraid you thought it was over and you were going to miss the last part.....omg, I can breathe now, lol. Another great reaction! Thank you so much! You can never go wrong reacting to ANYTHING Home Free does! They truly are an amazingly talented group of men. #DrummingwithJarvis #HomeFree

[@conniecorson]

Love your reactions and that you support the performers so much. This song by HF elevates life to the next level. Thanks for your enthusiasm and love!!

[@dianesilas5252]

My first hearing this as well! Oh my gosh! You are so great! Love love love your reactions! You’re the GOAT in my book! 👏🏼♥️🥰🙌🏼

[@Jane-q9e]

Tim did the arrangement, and Adam (beatboxer) occasionally sings. He has a beautiful tenor voice.

[@deniseriley6622]

My favorite Christmas song. This is amazing 👏

[@aileenj8180]

BEST reaction to this song ever! I felt that lol

[@Angie-yt1ki]

I have been lurking around your channel for your HF reactions and this is the one that hooked me! Absolutely loved your reaction, and that little nose scrunch Austin does when he looks at us like that is adorable. 😂

[@joemichener2337]

"Do you hear what I hear" is a good one. The other person is Chris Rupp (Adam's brother). Chris, Adam, and a friend started Home Free. I am still waiting for you to check out Hollens and Foust doing Misty Mountains. You were going to check it out months ago.

[@CanadaB1024]

I am a Home Fry for love and love this version. If you would like another version that will give you chills, check out The Canadian Tenors rendition.

[@usmadgirl3074]

Always look forward to your Home Free reactions, Jarvis!😊I never get tired of this one but you've GOT to react to "Mary Did You Know" that premiered yesterday! There are so many incredible sounds, your ears will think they're in Heaven! 😇

[@lschoenrank]

I am pretty sure that this is the very first time I ever heard of Home Free. Christmas time just a couple of years ago and I was looking for Christmas performances on KZbin. And I found THIS. Amazing. And just like that, I was completely hooked. Subscribed almost immediately. That nose crinkle of Austin's. He is very good with the camera.

[@debbiehall9091]

So beautiful and these guys are incredible.

[@cheryljohnson733]

It's Christmas time and I love this song by Home Free. Check out their Mary Did You Know. It's all magnificent. Thank you for reaction. This is my favorite all time group.

[@chrismorin1318]

I always enjoy your reactions. I love seeing your eyes pop and shine just before the big smile! I'm quite certain people have already told you that the man you didn't know was the original founder/co founder and brother to Adam Rupp. His name is Chris. I can't wait for your reactions to more Home Free Christmas songs. Tis the season in which even those who don't care for Christmas or celebrate other religions, or no religion, find themselves in the seasonal rabbit hole and are actually loving the songs! Keep up the wonderful reactions! ❤

[@Missilynn]

You're my favorite reactor. Enjoy you so much. Love Home Free - love you. Keep up the great work

[@pattymesagal2654]

i will be home for christmas -- is one of my favorites -- thank you for the reaction smiles and love

[@raveouscarlias4479]

Great reaction! haha. Home Free makes Home Fries of all of us!

[@BSGNative]

Definitely need to check out "Do You Hear What I Hear". It was arranged by Adam Rupp so the vocal percussion/beatboxing is amazing! I saw them in concert last week & they performed it live. Absolutely gorgeous! And also check out the one they just dropped, "Mary Did You Know" - prepare for chillbumps!

[@lucdowney4564]

Thank you so much for this reaction! Incredible version of a classic hymn.

[@sherylhenley1931]

Spectacular finish! Loved your reaction! This is my favorite version of this song.

[@DaisyGray74]

This one was beautiful. Everything about it was perfect. The panning around of that beautiful church, the vocals, the harmonies, and how they interpret things. I would’ve LOVED to be there to hear it naturally occurring with the acoustics. Great reaction! P.S. Voiceplay just dropped a Wicked medley and it’s 🔥🔥🔥.

[@aprilanderson6432]

~~~shivers~~~

[@cenewton3221]

Just. One. Word. ... EPIC.

[@kmwwrench]

I loved your reaction to this. I'm not a big Christmas music person, but this is pretty extraordinary. And don't miss their performance of Adam Rupp's arrangement of Do You Hear What I Hear. Fabulous!

[@babyfry4775]

It’s so beautiful. Loved the “bell tones” and they’re so clever with their arrangements. They sang Angels We Have Heard on High in the same church. The man with the cowboy hat is Chris Rupp. He’s the beatboxer’s brother. Together they founded Home Free in college in 2000. Chris left the group in 2016 to go solo. He was replaced by Chance. Home Free just released Mary Did You Know…it’s incredible. Loved your reaction Jarvis. They have some funny Christmas songs too.

[@momD612]

WooooHooooo!!! I'm so happy ti see you starting Home Free Christmas!! What a fabulous one to start with! Love those *SHOCK* moments. 🙃🤣 You will be more blown away with do you hear what I hear! Adam arrangement & it's KILLER! 🥰

[@r.d.stratford106]

5:27 is the kind of moment I live for in a Jarvis reaction 😂🔥 Love it! Whoo!

[@donnarutledge1086]

Love your reactions, your eyes are so expressive.

[@carladams5891]

Silent Night is amazing!!

[@cheridampier2524]

You will get really excited over Adam Rupp's percussion on their newest release Mary did you know....it's stunning Oh and you have me thinking tension and relief all through it...lol

[@playlester]

Darren Rust, Home Free's sound engineer and producer, who mixes and masters all their current music, has arranged their songs since Chris Rupp left the group in 2016. Tim Foust, who is an accomplished writer and arranger, swears he is a master and the 6th member of Home Free. Rust demos their individual parts on new music by singing each part. Foust says his demos are better than the Home Free guys can sing. Rust was part of the famous Midwest group the Blenders.

[@kristindunstan172]

I love watching you go fanboy on these guys.

[@Stacy-wm1uw]

I enjoyed your reaction so much! Thank you!! 😊
