Home Free - The Butts Remix | Original Reaction

[@mettesrensen6116]

I agree with Sharon , a must see is the concert version of 9 to 5 beatbox breakdown or an original like Dive Bar Saints . I love reactions because you show us that you enjoy the music , stay safe

[@sharontaylortaylor1858]

Look for Home Free 9 to 5 beat box break down....live. It'll blow you mind. It takes time to figure out all about these guys....us Home Fries have had years. Your doing great. Thanks for the reaction.

[@joanwharff6483]

A Tim Original = “CHAMPAGNE TASTE ON A BEER BUDGET” .....Tim wrote this & did lead in it....another funny one. These guys do have a Great Sense of Humor!!!!

[@DanFromHali]

7:25 ish? I am so sorry!

[@lynn2574]

Plus it has an Avi (from PTX) cameo!

[@cheridampier2524]

Home Free doesn't usually take themselves too seriously, they are entertainers for sure. A big catalog of music to choose from and I see that others have recommended Helplessly Hoping. I will add to the count, its my favorite.

[@VJ_9014]

It's probably a huge compliment to both Adam and Tim to be unnoticed as they are trying to mimic percussion and bass instruments. That's what makes people debate (passionately at times) when they believe there are instruments when there isn't. They are all so good!

[@DanFromHali]

Exactly. The whole point, is for it to sound natural. There are definitely times where I think some of the better a capella groups have added in some instruments, but just like reverb and what not can do wonders for vocals on a produced track, similar can be done for beatbox. I was actually curious about this, so I sought out live versions of a couple songs that I've already reacted to and they even better live, or maybe its just that you can tell that its not just a matter of production. Regardless, they are a great group.

[@mettesrensen6116]

I´ve had to tell another reactor that the fries NEVER forget to show love Adam , he said people dont notice the beatboxers

[@shercahn]

I think Rob could get certified as a Master Whistler if he wanted.

[@lynn2574]

😂 I’m gonna NEED you to react to HF’s “Grandma Got Run Over”. And I dare you to not laugh out loud.

[@DanFromHali]

So I put this in the description, but for visibility sake, I made a boo boo. Somehow I must have double pressed on my stream deck, and didn't notice until I was editing it. It had been requested a few times, and I wanted to get it up here... but I also wanted it to be a genuine first reaction. I wouldn't have felt right about redoing it, and maybe giving a sub par reaction, because I had already watched it. I will make it up to you in the future!

[@cjsjr249]

No worries! I've seen the video so many times, I could visualize it! And we got it in Round 2! 😉 great reaction!

[@Angie-yt1ki]

I agree, have seen video numerous times and was able to visualize it and focus on your great reaction. Don't know if you saw Tim eating that ham sammich or his headbanging to Fat Bottom Girls. 😂

[@marshakey6304]

@@cjsjr249 Same here, have seen the video a hundred times.😂

[@angelamason9840]

@@marshakey6304 So have I, haha! Plus, I have watched Chris Rupp’s behind the scenes breakdown of this countless times as well! I became a Home Fry at the beginning of this year after I started watching Rupp’s behind the scenes analysis of HF videos.

[@marshakey6304]

Loved your reaction. Some other fun ones are ‘Never Going to Give You Up’ and ‘Thank God I’m a Country Boy’. Some good ones for great harmony and visuals are ‘Take Me Home Country Roads’ and ‘How Great Thou Art’.

[@DanFromHali]

I can say with a degree of certainty that Thank God I'm a Country Boy, and Country Roads will make the cut pretty soon, as they are songs that I love.

[@angelamason9840]

Home Free: Love Me Like That, Full of Cheer, Dive Bar Saints, Yours, Some Girls Do, Folsom Prison Blues

[@joanwharff6483]

Oh, you the Real Rob.....”END OF THE ROAD”...a BOYZ II MEN cover !!!!! Rob has SOUL !!!

[@edithdavis2848]

Not seeing the video. Those are All fries , friends, or girlfriends and wives. Thank you for the second run. Loved your reactions

[@johndeeregreen4592]

Austin is an awesome power tenor, but Rob has a smoothness I really love.

[@DanFromHali]

Rob so far just always sounds crisp, smooth, and like he's here for a good time, and I really like that. But yeah, they are all super talented.

[@joannajohnson8210]

Their different tones compliment each other very well!

[@belinda9696]

In their concerts, usually, Adam has a 10 to 15-minute segment while the others take a break and he shows his beatbox skills. I don't know how he does it for the whole 2-hour concert, but he usually doesn't take a break and I imagine he probably can't feel his face by the end of the concert.

[@MsRegi64]

One of my favorite songs they do that Rob stands out in is Boys to Men The End of the Road.

[@chrismorin1318]

Loving your reactions and watching you fall down the rabbit hole!🤣 One request, please DO NOT react to Mayday by Cam right away. By getting more acquainted with the group and their parts 1st will make Mayday more meaningful! Trust me, it'll be worth it!

[@jankreps5115]

Watch their “Country Fried Pop Medley”!; “Boondocks/ Fishing in the Dark “ mashup; “Elvira”; “Take Me Home Country Roads”; “My Church”; & “Alabama Sampler”! Keep on reacting to HF. You’re just starting to get your toes wet!L Nice reaction!!

[@sandychisholm1297]

You are giving me what I Love Home Free ❤️❤️Thank you

[@hamblinta]

Layne, great job with the arrangement...excellent!

[@babyfry4775]

Haha this is so funny. The boys do feed off each other but it’s kinda hard to feed off each other during Covid with the group’s songs over this last year, and yet they do a great job harmonizing while recording separately. They’ve really produced pretty good songs during the pandemic. Maybe try Quarantine, Folsom Prison Blues. Loved this one. They have other medleys too. I do love Sunday Best with them at home with their spouses and animals. Good reaction.

[@cindiegrimm5983]

They have so much fun, and therefore WE have fun. They are amazing and know each other so well they just automatically fall into the grove together. Welcome to the rabbit hole known as Home Free. I suggest you find Adam Rupp Solo and watch just what he can do in other realms that are not always in the videos. By the way , if life ever gets back to normal, they LOVE Canada, a live show must be in your future. Catch them while we can still afford the tickets because these guys are rising stars!!

[@amandadunning8701]

Oh that was perfect, even with the missing video in the first half. :D This was great to wake up to this morning, I've been having a bit of a rough time so your laughter really picked me up and I'm so glad you loved it! :D Yep, Queen is awesome and I loved that they put Fat Bottom Girls in this, such a great song. You should really check out Adam Rupp doing a drum solo live on tour! I would suggest doing a couple one from 2015 then a newer one from 2018 to see his progression. Plus he's been using the lockdown to practice new tricks, such as the castanets in Sea Shanty medley. Peace, love and light to all, keep safe, stay strong, we'll all get through this together.

[@DanFromHali]

I'm so glad that you enjoyed the reaction. I clearly enjoyed giving it. The video was so fun to watch. As for Rupp doing a drum solo. I feel like that's definitely co!

[@amandadunning8701]

@@DanFromHali You for sure need to watch at least the newest one. Also check out Tim Foust (the bass) blowing out a speaker live on stage by going too low. It's hilarious to watch.

[@ArleneAdkinsZell]

Such a good reaction and I bet you watch it more than one more time, it is a super fun song.

[@louisetemples7011]

You will love "Adam Rupp Live Solo" he is a multiple times World Beatboxing Champion and Vocal Percussionist!

[@tracyz9155]

You usually have to listen to most of Home Free’s songs a few times to understand exactly what each is contributing to the whole sound. Try “End of the Road” or “Blue Ain’t Your Color” next.

[@kellywilliams364]

Chris Rupp put out behind the scenes video about the making of this video. Go check out his youtube channel.

[@sallymaria]

Glad you're enjoying more Home Free, and I look forward to your future reactions to them. If you're looking for another video where they feature Adam a bit, look for Try Everything. If you're interested in behind the scenes, Home Free do a bts video for people who support them on Patreon, and in the last year they've started publicly releasing the ones from 2016, so there's one for Try Everything - look for From the Vault.

[@DanFromHali]

I might just become a Patron to be honest with you. I'm really interested in seeing some of their more recent behind the scenes stuff.

[@sallymaria]

@@DanFromHali That would be excellent, welcome to the family. ☺️ Apart from the individual song behind the scenes, there are also the Home Away from Home videos on their channel, which vary from tour rehearsals to food tours, and gives you a chance to get to know the guys better.

[@edithdavis2848]

Catch Me If You Can, is a good one

[@sillytabby1]

Love this!!! These guys are talented and funny.

[@DanFromHali]

Yeah, I love that their humor comes across. They are all around great!

[@george217]

"Honky tonk badonkadonk" is a real song by Trace Adkins.

[@andyharris5438]

I like the scene after they say ham sammich... Tim is in the back eating the sammich

[@miamidolphinsfan]

Home Free tries to give all the members a chance to shine ! It sets them apart from the other groups in my opinion. Yes Rob & Adam shined in this one.

[@DanFromHali]

Yup. Part of what I was talking about on my first Ring of Fire video. Some groups compliment each other, where the groups simply build off of the skills of all of the other members of the group. Others, complete each other, where they have central soloists that often don't feel complete without the voices from the rest of the group. Those others aren't bad, and can still be great. It's just a different group composition. And you hit it on the head, they do get set apart.

[@bettygossell3408]

My suggestion to hear Chance is I Can't Outrun You and Yours

[@dorothygarner9375]

Someone else may have already commented on this, but Chris Rupp has done a reaction to this video (along with some of the other Home Free videos) that tells a lot of the behind the scenes info. I think you might enjoy it!

[@jamiestrand4506]

I'm a sucker for their fun songs! They are such a bunch of goofballs. Definitely check out Country Fried Pop Medley, Thank God I'm a Country Boy, 9 to 5 and All About That Bass for a few more...

[@marshakey6304]

Forgot to mention that I love that you have a Tardis on the wall in the background.

[@DanFromHali]

Ah, thank you :D I love it. It's also a cookie jar that makes fantastic Tardis sounds whenever I get cookies...

[@KillerTruffle]

One thing most people don't notice is that Tim takes over beatboxing during Adam's record scratch solo, and was spitting all over Rob while he did it (for comedic effect). I think Chris Rupp took over bass at that point too. All five of the guys are competent beatboxers and can do it... Adam is the king though. Heh

[@DanFromHali]

I've seen quite a few talented bassists whom are also pretty talented beat boxers. So while that doesn't surprise me, that is pretty awesome, and I love the Rob story.

[@susanwahl6322]

It’s a good thing that I know this song by heart. I heard it but couldn’t see it.

[@DanFromHali]

did you see that I watched it twice?

[@bethcoussou]

Hi, Dan! I have been enjoying your Home Free reactions very much! I don’t know if you noticed, but only one person I’ve chatted with on another reactor’s channel, has ever noticed Tim’s headbanging on “Fat Bottom Girl”! I don’t know how anyone can miss all of that hair flying around! lol Rob missed his calling at being a rapper! He’s got the voice for it! He’s also an excellent whistler! That was him in the beginning! You saw the guy in the overalls! That’s Buegs! He’s a really good friend of Rob’s! You should definitely check out one of Adam’s beatboxing solo from their more recent live shows (from 2018 or 2019). Also, I have a really good song suggestion for you. I don’t know if anyone has suggested yet. I think you’ve seen enough videos to get a feel for their voices and ranges. Check out their cover of “Mayday”. Pay close attention at the beginning when Tim sings.

[@DanFromHali]

I want to wait a little bit more and get a few more songs in with Chance before I do Mayday, as some of the others have mentioned. A lot of what had been requested, has been a bit older, or songs where chance doesn't get much time to tickle my eardrums. It is 100% coming though.

[@cozenw3236]

Rob reminds me of the character Bobby Singer from Supernatural.

[@marlahudgins7038]

[@laurah3152]

It starts at 7:25 🙃

[@DanFromHali]

So sorry MarLa. I didn't realize it until editing, and I really wanted a proper first time reaction. I thought about redoing it, but it didn't sit right with me. Thank you Laura, for helping out.

[@DyvmSlorm]

I'm sure you noticed the butts they presented. While they had many models with them during the shoot, no female butts were injured on camera . Chris Rupp reacts to some of his own HF songs and did to this. He pointed out something I had missed the 10 or so times I had watched this. The scene right after the "ham samich" line has Tim to the right of the guys (our left) actually eating said "samich".

[@nancykuhrt6689]

Tim has a 5 octave voice range. I thought it was more.

[@brendagrothier967]

[@DanFromHali]

I appreciate that. Very happy you enjoyed it! I did get the video in the end, though.

Search for Chris Rupp critiques on his own channel. He gives a lot of insight into the making of a few of HF's videos, this one included. Not asking for you to react to them; it's just for your edification and entertainment. Take care, Dan.

[@georgemegaw2925]

Any reason we can’t see their video? Particularly since this that’s the component that demonstrates their humor.

[@DanFromHali]

Well I have two answers to this, yes I flubbed up. I wound up pressing the button on my stream deck twice by accident. But also, I can see it, and can see what's going on. I even react to it. However, I do watch it twice, and caught my mistake as I went to play it the second time, so the video is there.

No unfortunately not. I use Streamdeck for just about everything here, and i double pressed the button. it didn't show up. I hope you enjoyed my reaction either way, and I watched it a second time (Where I caught my mistake)... I could have easily just quit, and redid it... but the reaction wouldn't be the same. I'm not a good actor.
