Bio: Leonardo Torres was raised Catholic and left the church after being threatened to be kicked out for asking questions about the bible concerning his grandfather's death. He identified as an Atheist for 12 years and spent that time actively arguing with anyone who brought up religion. At age 30, he had a strong encounter with God that made him drop his Atheist title and became a free follower of GOD who he calls, "The Great Spirit". Taking God seriously and following Him wherever He leads him, Leonardo was led to start this KZbin Channel, reacting to music as a "Non-Christian" musician reviewing Christian music. Through the music and the stories he began to learn more about Christ and considers himself a Student of Christ. Having been lost and now found, this channel is like a lost and found for lost sheep, Leonardo's goal is to create a safe space where God can find those who are yearning for Him.
Leonardo wants to remind followers of Christ to love one another as they were commanded. He is a man on a mission to spread the love of God to everyone that comes to this channel. Whether you come to stay or are just passing by, we pray your soul is touched by The Holy Spirit and that you are changed forever! Join us on this journey, not by subscribing but by making a commitment to allow His Love into your heart.

[@lindanearing4710]

When Home Free sings, the angels stop to listen. None of Home Free ever show off just for the sake of showing off. Their musical instincts are spot on every time and they serve the music rather than trying to make the music serve them.

[@tassilo5949]

Very nicely said, agree with you

[@dnwiebe]

True. The biggest showoff in the a cappella space is Geoff Castellucci. Most of his solo numbers are pure showing off. For example, compare his Take Me Home, Country Road to Home Free’s. When HF sings it, you can easily believe that they’re five homesick West Virginians, even though you know they’re not. When GC sings it, there’s no question; he’s just a gifted basso profundo playing “Look How Low I Can Go,” and the song is nothing but the racquet he plays it with.

[@reneeturner9187]

I love the rare occasions when we get to hear Adam Rupp sing with the rest of the guys. He also has a great singing voice. This is the most beautiful version of this song I have ever heard, and I listen to it almost every day. Glad you enjoyed it

[@RightRev8487]

Best version I've ever heard...!! As a Pastor myself, and the son of a Pastor, I had this played at my Mom's funeral in May '22. I had introduced Home Free to Mom the last year of her life and she loved them...and loved this version as much as I do. It was beautiful and a wonderful proclamation of the God we love and serve, and the God who loves us and sent His only son Jesus to redeem those who would look to Him, repent of their sins and surrender their lives to Him. Best "cover" ever in my opinion...!!

[@ShyAnn291]

I played this at my mom’s funeral in June 2022 She loved this song by them, it was the first song by them I played for her, and the last song I played for her!

[@sueby1962]

I played this for my dad when he was suffering with end stage kidney failure in 2021. He was in awe of their voices and loved it. We played it at his funeral Oct. 2021.

[@par500dragon7]

That last bass drop was a double... both Tim and Chance did it.

[@daleb1279]

I think you are missing the Chance element here. When Tim was singing lead, Chance was carrying the bass notes and when the other three sang their leads, Tim and Chance were both singing the bass notes and stacking them so you got a fuller bass note in each.

[@oneplay]

Exactly this. Tim truly is a hugely gifted bass but the addition of Chance allows Home Free to have a fuller sound in many ways.

[@_griffin82_46]

He also missed Adam Rupp's "solo" in his beautiful tenor voice of his

[@Cat-fi4ie]

Tim and Chance are singing bass

[@janhankins911]

This was shot in the Austrian Alps and the scenery is absolutely stunning. The singing is also absolutely stunning. You don't have to be religious or a Christian to appreciate the beauty of both the scenery and the voices here.

[@johnchestnut5340]

They have two capable of singing bass. And the beat boxer absolutely can sing. You heard a full group.

[@babyfry4775]

One of my favorites. I think it’s the most beautiful version I’ve heard. Did you notice Adam (beatboxer) singing? He doesn’t do it often. He sang the “it is well” part. Pretty tenor voice. This was filmed in the Austrian Alps while they were touring there. Beautiful scenery for a beautiful hymn. Love it. Good reaction Leo!

[@ericclayton6287]

Remember they can stack the bass with Adam Chance.

[@ppresley9208]

My introduction to Home Free ... I'll never forget it ... glad you enjoyed it !

[@RPitch07]

I am a true Home Frie. Have seen them live twice and have tickets for a third show in March. But of all the the wonderful music they have done, I believe this is the best version of this song that I have ever heard. Great reaction. And that is all Tim. No autotune.

[@nancyholter5646]

You might also check out the "Church Sessions" video of HF's "Go Rest High". More lovely harmonies.

[@momD612]

This is a mandatory & so glad you enjoyed it. 🥰 They do it just as beautifully live. 😍 ❤️

[@colombe245]

What's mindblowing is that they sing this live, and it's as good as the studio version. Same for "Helplessly Hoping" and i was shocked by "Seven bridges" live ...sooo good 💖 We have to thx God that these guys exist and find each other to sing 😁

[@barbarakennedy2667]

It makes my spirit soar. Perhaps what you heard was the harmony of two bass voices. Adam Chance is listed as the baritone, but he sang as the bass in his previous group.

[@annelieshoornik]

Absolutely, every time Chance and Tim sing bass together you get that effect

[@carolburnett190]

That’s one of the things that I love about Home Free-they don’t do weird things to music just to show off. Well, occasionally they do show off Tim’s bass but it’s always for fun.

[@joanwharff6483]

Then, now…you’ll love “AMAZING GRACE”….you’ll find it under Peter Hollens, featuring Home Free. It’s just beautiful ‼️

[@AnnaMarie66]

Home Free is phenomenal at respecting the original artists while putting their own little twists on the songs. Why I love them so much

[@200yente]

There are five songs (there may be more that are not coming to mind) that are all singing with no beat boxing. For exquisite harmonies listen to O Holy Night, Helplessly Hoping, Auld Lang Syne and Angels We Have Heard on High. But first listen to Brothers in Arms. I think it is the best performance ever by Tim and the five part harmonies gave me chills. That high Oooo you heard floating atop was Adam Rupp. The video was filmed in the Alps during one of their European tours.

[@debbiehall9091]

This is such an amazing version of this song. These guys are amazing.❤️

[@robinmahan8814]

Their voices are meant for each others.

[@jerrijackson824]

I think when you heard the double bass parts both Chance and Tim were hitting them together

[@kmwwrench]

This is so beautiful. Darren did such a great arrangement and they did it so well.

[@pinky2245]

Remember that Home Free has two bass singers - Tim's bass and Chance's bass/baritone. That last note of this song was both of them, that's why it was so amazing!

[@bryanpscolka7280]

The most beautiful song I ever heard. This is what you would hear when you go to heaven. Tim's bass is just crazy. Just like Jeff and Avi.

[@gregkral4467]

remember different pure tone voices can resonate and vibrate with other tones..... pure human, i swear.

[@Jonesbones73]

Another Home Free suggestion…their cover of “Love Train.” It’s fun and as usual…so good!! “Spread the love familia!!”♥️

[@wendythrockmorton1811]

This was filmed in the Austrian Alps. It has been said that the note at the end was both Chance and Tim.

[@dianeritthaler7792]

Beautiful location Beautiful song Beautiful singing Beautiful arrangement 🎶 ❤️ 💕

[@peggygross7409]

This is my favorite version of this song. They sing it beautifully and the scenery brings the message home.

[@teresacartwright5406]

This was filmed in the Austrian Alps (there is an amazing live version "Home Free Kearny". When Austin (long curly hair) was a kid he sometimes traveled and sang with his father's gospel quartet in Georgia. So, if it feels like he took you to church . . .

[@connieharmon2408]

One of My Favorites from Home Free

[@jeffreyjacobs390]

The addition of the normally Percussion skill of Adam Rupp (founding member) reinforces the Tenor background vocals SO EVEN BETTER with Five Joyful Noises .... God given ! jj

[@freckles7184]

Home Fry here! 😊 I’m so glad you’re loving Home Free. For some fun ones, try All About that Bass or Country Fried Pop or The Butts Remix. For more serious one, Go Rest High on that Mountain. Thank you!

[@m.harrison2151]

This video was filmed in the Austrian Alps while they were in Europe for a tour. One of the few times Adam Rupp, the beat boxer, sings! He’s a tenor,

[@robynmatheson7687]

Tim and Chance hit you with the double bass at the end. Angelic choir backed by a pipe organ.

[@ryanellsworth7246]

Since HF has Chance as their Baritone, they can do anything with that dual base. They are so well balanced especially with Adam taking the tenor accompaniment. The double bass is also amazing in God Blessed the Broken Road and Alde Lang Syne. Blessings!

[@jackiestone3468]

Beautiful arrangement of this song. The scenery is amazing…it’s what you imagine when they sing this song! They all did a great job❤ thanks for an amazing reaction 🎉 I love Home Free😊

[@doloresburns3301]

They did this in the Austrian Alps during their world tour which was cut short when they had to scramble to get home because of covid. Such a beautiful piece.

[@vickiadkins9844]

HF . Angels on earth!!

[@oldschoolpop8428]

Listen to Tim sing his acapella version of In My Room! 5 part Tim harmonies. Absolutely beautiful!

[@sallyread7032]

I have requested this song & their cover of "Go Rest High On That Mountain" to be sung at my funeral. I have sung this song since i was a little girl & I'm 69 soon be 70. I never really enjoyed this song, but, I love what they with this song. They make every song better. They did a awesome & a fantastic job. Great reaction.

[@DawnHanlon]

I have never heard Home Free. Thank you for introducing me to them! And the vibrato in the bass is perfect!

[@LeonardoTorresMusic]

Glad you like it!

[@denise_landry]

Breathtaking! Thanks Leo. 🖤🍟

[@cattsunn]

That voice flying up there was Adam the beatboxer.

[@mikemccollough4826]

In this song Adam Chance has joined the group. Chance is also a bass and both he and Tim were hitting the bass. The beat boxer also had a short solo with "It is well"

[@JoanN63]

A song I grew up with because I come from a Christian family where my father and grandmother were pastors. My father, who had a beautiful voice, often sang this at home (in Dutch). Home Free sings this so beautifully in a great environment that I let my mother (85) hear and show it a year ago. Now she wants to listen to it regularly and has suggested it to her church community to show it there. How Home Free sings it, you don't just hear it, you also feel it. And it's great that Adam Rupp also sings a bit here. Time to listen to "Mayday:? .Further suggestions: "Go Rest On That Mountain", "Travelin' Soldier", "Dreamer","Take me Home",

[@diannthomas5653]

Beautiful performance. Loved your reaction

[@dawnmanzetti1633]

This is how I pray that heaven sounds. Adam Chance is a baritone/bass

[@playlester]

You are hearing Chance and Tim singing the bass.

[@brendagrothier967]

This was the second Home Free video I ever saw.

[@cindysue1139]

First time on your channel. I really enjoyed your reaction to this video. I love this hymn and this rendition. Like you, I love that they stayed true to the original. I think instead of the word "simple" I would use "pure". Rarely is anything that Home Free does simple. I love their videos but the visuals can be distracting. So I watch the video then I replay it, sit back, close my eyes and listen again. There is so much going on with the background vocals not to mention that smooth-as-butter key change. Anyways, thanks for the reaction! May God bless you!

[@roxannemaggiacomo4513]

I learned How Great Thou Art in my home church where I grew up until my siblings and I were the only children/youth...it was a time of people (the children of the members) moving out of the city to make their families homes' in the burbs, and also a time of people not coming to church because of trending thoughts on it (eg: it's real?? come on.) Our "Sunday school teacher" (since many have changed the term Sunday school to something wonderful and modern or simply Children's Church)...had been left with no piano players (which were awesome, and humble warriors back then) but insisted we sing this hymn over and over - alternating with Great is Thy Faithfulness. With our little group. We ended up giving our church to another church that was growing. And turns out I know the words forever. And I cried when I heard them this time. Thanks for playing it. Also, It Is Well With My Soul is another old hymn they snuck in there. Which is solid. And written by someone who was experiencing the worst in life. And I remember a four foot high powerful singer from the same church belting it out in the "convelescant hospital" several blocks away - where we took the Sunday service in the hallways with men in wheelchairs on one floor...go upstairs and sing and do a service - prayer and sermon - with the women on the second floor. Upstairs was challenging because we had the service in the lounge and there was a canary that sang with us. A very godly canary. Many of those sweet women would ask: have you come to take me home? Loved that place. Don't know if they allow hymns in there anymore. They rebuilt and I dunno...hope to meet them again. Without their wheelchairs and sorrow. Amen. Maybe there is a bass angel singing along with the bass - but basses (bassi?) are amazing. Flow, river!

[@judithboggs2196]

Ohhh....no words. Just ....God, how great thou art! My condolences to your friend and his family, but we are truly only parted for awhile. So glad you are his friend. Both my parents have gone home and I miss them very much, though it is almost twenty years now. I know this song will help him when the grief seems too much to bear....usually in the middle of the night when there are no distractions from painful realities. This song I would like played at my memorial service to remind those left behind that I am still praising my God, and they should as well. Thank you, Leonardo, forgive any impertinence in my part....you are my brother in Christ, and in His love, God bless you and yours with His presence in ever increasing measure. Peace, brother.

[@whyme7996]

there is a live version without microphones from under a pavilion during a storm. They walked up to give the guests a song since the storm was making the show be cancelled. look up: Home Free Kearney, MO How Great Thou Art

[@georgefisher1995]

Tim sings with a natural bass rumble, even having vibrato, …. Glorious! A lot of bass singers rely on a gimmicky, growl to achieve that low note, successful, yet not always pleasing or melodic. Tim always is singing.

[@karenwahlenberg901]

Beautifully done. May your friend's dad RIP and thank him for his family's service.. thank you sir

[@mjsabie8517]

Thank you Karen. Being a Marine was one of the things my dad was most proud of in his life.

[@fayewood1377]

my favorite rendition of my favorite song of all.

[@beadwright]

Thank you for a great reaction.

[@gregkral4467]

When in school, the old gideons bible red books given out, this song was in the first outer cover pages... I read the words, knew the song, but read and always made me cry.... is our family funeral song of course..... this is absolute beauty, and man, that scenery where they are, powerful so powerful and amazing.....

[@pennygarrity386]

I can't believe you talked about Tim, Rob and Austin and didn't say a word about Adam's beautiful voice in one of the only solos you ever hear him do. Then again I guess I can because unless he's beatboxing most reactors seem to forget he's even there. I knew you'd love the song. This is the best version I've ever heard.

[@LeonardoTorresMusic]

oh no... poor Adam... I slap myself in the forehead every time I edit a video because as you can imagine, I hear the song at least a dozen more times while editing and I always hear things I missed in the initial recording.

[@ronfuqua2117]

you should also know the high oohhhs you hear but can't figure out who is doing them are also Adam Rupp five part harmony at its best@@LeonardoTorresMusic

[@pennygarrity386]

@@LeonardoTorresMusic I can imagine and I wasn't as irritated at you as I get at some others who reacted to this and did the same thing because you had a very surprised and pleased expression when you heard him. Adam doesn't sing lead very often (his brother says he's not comfortable singing lead because unlike the others he isn't vocally trained) so this is one song where you actually get to hear what a naturally beautiful voice he has instead of just hearing him harmonize with the others. I think most reactors BECAUSE he is singing don't even realize it's Adam.

[@lindabrewer3243]

That look you had is the one we all have every time they release a song. They are amazing!!

[@lazylady8591]

Tim's bass sounds like a pipe organ. He does the same thing in Brothers in Arms except the sound is more prominent there.

[@martinhafner2201]

On studio work, Tim may have recorded the same part 2 or 3 times to thicken it up a little, but those dragon breath notes down around G1 or so are just beautiful. The fun thing is that a lot of Tim's part is similar to the organ pedal tones where it will punch in a beat ahead or behind the other singers. I can just see E. Power Biggs coming down with the left hand and/or foot.

[@gregkral4467]

I think the bass is like the undertone throat singing..... have been practicing overtone and undertone for a few years, barely getting the effect.... is human, it really is. once you get those vocal chords working, it does.... it does... so gorgeous.

[@rosemorris8481]

Some old songs l learned years ago. Loved those songs.

[@gregkral4467]

I have to say, this is how this should be sung, with wow, and love. Love ya, thanks again for loving this with me.

[@jeffreyjacobs390]

Remember that all VIDEOS (virtually) are recorded in studio ... where tracks and takes are made until perfection of take, great blend of harmonics - and of course herein TOUCH UPS are few or none .... they are that good ! This is replicated in the Austrian Alps ... Love it. jj

[@AnnaMarie66]

Have listened to this probably more than 50 times & STILL chokes me up! Just magical 🥰🎶🙏🏻

[@kylesummers1565]

Peace, Love!!

[@sandralorenz1796]

This was filmed in the Austrian Alps. The same valley where they filmed the intro to the movie "The Sound of Music". Tim has been known to blow out speakers.

[@Wingedheart8448]

my Favorite Hymn! My life Hymn!

[@stanrock2225]

Powerful

[@miamidolphinsfan]

a masterpiece from home free

[@breckenking]

Have you seen the Carrie Underwood version of this song? It’s heart shattering! You could just feel the power of God through her singing!

[@meemermarie1977]

If you like straight acapella maybe check out “brother in arms” tim and chance lead. Nice bass and baritone lead with beautiful tenor backup harmonies

[@Natasha-ty7oo]

Go Rest High on the Mountain is another great one

[@alfredh3071]

Great reaction, this is a very emotional song. It’s even more so, when you’ve seen God actually moving in your life. This was shot in the Austrian Alps when they were touring Europe. You should check out Pentatonix version of Amazing Grace, but I caution you to bring your tissues.

[@anitawright7169]

This is the best version I have ever heard! Love your reaction!

[@1960rlv]

Isn’t that one of the most beautiful things you’ve ever heard?

[@shilohauraable]

So awesomely beautiful! 💖

[@louisetemples7011]

Perfection! Thank you!♥️😃🍟

[@thomasmacdiarmid8251]

1. Another song I would recommend for your friend, Matthew Sabie, is Monsters by James Blunt (the live/official video). You will appreciate the performance as James insisted on having no corrections or autotune, so as to keep the raw natural performance. You will see why. Bring tissues. 2. There is a video of Home Free singing this in a picnic shelter during a storm. The concert had been called off due to the storm, and a lot of the fans had gathered in the shelter. I am guessing the concert was to have been outdoors. To connect with and thank their audience, HF went over to the shelter and sang this without mics. It is of course not as precisely mixed as a sound board would allow, but it is still a beautiful and inspiring performance, not least of all because of the regard shown for their fans by the boys, which was entirely reciprocated.

[@gregkral4467]

Thank you for your reaction here, I love ya. Songs like this with such beauty and soul are so empowering. Thank you.

[@LynnHPalmertree]

I’ve hoped you would do this one!

[@dianeritthaler7792]

Adam Chance is probably singing bass with Tim in this one since he didn't have a part in this one.

[@playlester]

I call it double bass. You hear it again on Bless The Broken Road.

[@rebeccamccann8710]

The double bass was Tim and Chance together. No added effect. They are just that good.

[@jillchamberlain6478]

They seem to do the best arrangement of every song they do. That last note is like the organ coming in at the end. Both Tim and Chance were on the last note. And, when you see this live on stage, you can watch Tim direct that final note, and how they cut off together at the end. Magnificent!!

[@tammygarnett6038]

One of my favorite versions! I also loved the one did by Carrie Underwood and Vince Gill, a live event at a CMA event. Both versions are very beautiful!

[@jeffreyjacobs390]

They mixed in a line of another Hymn - IT IS WELL - and they are so seamless in their greatness most will not notice it. ( unless you are a Christian that sings in Church )

[@tracyallshouse2730]

Remember they have 2 bassists. I agree with your reaction 100%🤗🥰

[@TXRN-op9ql]

Just beautiful ❤

[@sharonmortimer3843]

I don't know if you realized that Adam the beatboxer actually had a solo in this song. This was filmed in the Austrian Alps while they were there on tour. You need to watch them sining Go Rest High On That Mountain. Truly enjoyed watching your reaction to this song.

[@shellywagoner5259]

Thats his dragon breath! Its Tim! In person, you yourself vibrate!!!

[@2b16p]

Great thumbnail picture Leonardo! LOL

[@regenesteffen2814]

That is Adam Rupp, the beatboxer, singing the high tenor above Austin

[@grannymitch6707]

Can’t wait to see what you think of this one!

[@truffles1111]

Wow! Thanks for introducing us to this!
