Keep in mind, Home Free not only signs, but they are the band. So here we have Kenny being accompanied by a purely vocal band. They don't have to run the song. This was an amazing performance where, according to that end clip, Kenny sought them out. God Bless that man.

[@lrfcowper]

I love watching the number of times you see him looking over at Adam, obviously a bit amazed at this weird thing Adam does.

[@candaceh1943]

In a Storytime with Tim during a concert, Tim Foust talked about how they almost got to perform this song with Kenny on the Tonight Show, but their plane kept getting delayed. They finally hired a private jet (which costs a lot of money that they really didn't have at the time), but they still weren't in time to do the show. However, they got to hang out with Kenny in the green room for hours, listening to him telling stories. Kenny seemed to really like these guys. They also did a cover of The Gambler, as a tribute to Kenny after he passed. RIP, Kenny Rogers. Also, American Pie is a very long song. Don McLean did the first and last verses, plus sang lead on every chorus. The HF guys each took one verse. I thought it was pretty evenly distributed. HF always makes an effort to showcase their collaborators.

[@DravenGal]

I guess I'm a product on my generation, but every time I hear "American Pie," I think of Weird Al's "The Saga Begins." Which, I have read, has happened to Don McLean himself in concert, because his kids played Weird Al's version SO much...

[@carinalindberg7377]

Also, Kenny repeatedly tried to talk about the guys at that show, but was continuously interrupted and led to other topics by the host. He REALLY wanted to give them a shout out, but wasn't allowed to.

[@DravenGal]

@@carinalindberg7377 How bizarre and rude! I wonder why they didn't allow it. Lame!

[@carinalindberg7377]

@@DravenGal It is my understanding that because they were late they were seen as somewhat not interested in being on the show and because they were "only backup" to Kenny, invited by him rather than the show, they were not what the show was interested in anyway. It was quite bizarre because Kenny really did his best to bring them up repeatedly and was cut off and steered away every single time. Still, the guys consider it being over or there best experiences because they got to hang out with Kenny and he shared some very useful experiences with them, including that it's far better to have a slow growing career and journey to fame because it builds a far more solid and dedicated fan base and that is worth more than anything else. The Fries showed him to be correct by offering to pay for the private jet they rented to get there, after which they set up a Go-Fund-Me and we collected more than enough to cover the cost. ❤️🥰🙏

[@allybandy3047]

I think they lifted Kenny up in every way possible. They had his back, and shone the light on him. It isn't easy singing subtle so the star can shine, and still have perfection in the vocals.

[@neocelestia]

After Kenny passed away, Home Free did a tribute to him by covering his classic "The Gambler". In a word, it's amazing. Please do that song at some point. Love how into this collaboration you guys were! You're clearly fans of Kenny (who wouldn't be? xD) and he was amazing in this number. And that bit at the end where you took notice of "Elvira" with the Oak Ridge Boys and mentioned it's on the list? Please please please bump it to near the top of that list!

[@DravenGal]

Their tribute makes me tear up EVERY time!

[@user-qp8jh9vl7v]

I love this so very much and was so happy our boys were able to sing with Kenny. What an honor! For another wonderful collaboration for the holidays I think you would enjoy their " Beautiful Star of Bethlehem " featuring The Oak Ridge Boys and Jeffrey East. Thanks for the Home Free reactions.

[@mariawarren5624]

Yes. I forgot about that one. That is a good one as well.

[@grandmakaren4680]

I agree this is a must hear!

[@weaintraisedrightpodcast]

Our pleasure!

[@glendamcgrady1244]

Kenny Rogers and Home Free! Amazing. Listen to Christmas in Dixie with Alabama.

[@garryandjanepannell8594]

Not many people know Kenny started out in rock. Kenny Rogers and the First Edition did a number that always makes me smile called 'Just Dropped In' if anyone wants to see it's on KZbin.

[@cjsjr249]

You guys will love their collaboration with the Oak Ridge Boys doing Elvira... can't wait!

[@brendasorenson6186]

Ogre was FAN-GIRLING!!! 😂 RIP Kenny

[@weaintraisedrightpodcast]

Yes he was! LOL

[@minneyruth]

😂😂❤

[@tygerbrite]

This is a very old black gospel tune, not a Kenny Rogers song per se. The background vocals by #homefree that drive the tune, with their swells and adlibs, bring out the gospel-choir vibe. It's one of the things that sets HF apart from other a cappella groups. This is of my top 5 HF songs. And I think Kenny looks beautiful.

[@dotwyness4110]

You got a bit excited when you saw the little clip with the Oak Ridge Boys, Home Free did Elvira with them, then did Beautiful Star Of Bethlehem with them and Jeffrey East. Dont know if you are going to do Christmas songs but that is a good one

[@JoanN63]

What an honor and blessing that Home Free has had the chance to sing with the great legend Kenny Rogers at the request of Kenny Rogers himself. While maintaining the respect and appreciation of Kenny Rogers, this sounded wonderful again. The voices fit together so well. With the great vocal percussion added, this was perfect. What a memory !! R.I.P. Kenny Rogers🙏

[@vickybolsby9153]

That's one thing I luv about home free. They never take it for granted when they get to work with such legendary singers such as Kenny!

[@tgtan]

That was Chris Rupp in the hat. He founded Home Free.

[@rllangevin3841]

Great reaction Boys! Love how Kenny still sounded so great - and the grit/gravel in his voice!! Just wow! When #HomeFree does collaborations they truly allow the featured artist(s) to shine and we wouldn't have it any other way. As you now know, Home Free never disappoints!

[@barbarakennedy2667]

Home Free was thrilled to sing with Kenny Rogers and were more than happy to back him up.

[@pappydreactions]

So glad yall liked that. I do have to say, dancing Jerzey is cute but dancing Ogre is down right adorable. Lol. Great job guys

[@minneyruth]

😂😂 I like the dancing too 🕺

[@tammymoseley1348]

This Home Fry loves hanging out with others who Ain't Raised Right.

[@rf4569]

Great reaction!!! You are right we love Home Free. Saludos desde Agentina.

[@Cat-fi4ie]

This is Kenny Roger's song on his Christmas album that he asked Home Free to do with him. That's why Kenny is singing 90% of the song , if you let it go through the talking Kenny said it.

[@vickiadkins9844]

What an honor for HF to sing with the legend, Mr. Rogers!! They are made to sing together!! Us Home Fries do love ya'll!! 💘

[@mariawarren5624]

love watching reacts videos to my fav Home Free. Howdy from this Home Fry. Going to see them on Friday. Love this song. Oak Ridge Boys is great. I think that one and this one are two of my favorites. Yes Chris Rupp - Adam brother and Chris founded the group.

[@sag2horses]

THIS IS ON KENNY'S LAST CHRISTMAS ALBUM

[@dianel222]

Love Kenny 💜 and think the bass line moves the song along. Cheers to Home Free.

[@neocelestia]

This Home Fry loves you guys very much indeed! Great video! Cheers boys!!

[@joywright8794]

Yes, Chris Rupp was the other remaining founding member and it was 5-6 yrs after this video was recorded that died. Kenny was not just a Country singers. He had fans across the board.

[@richb313]

They had every intention of working with Kenny again but sadly he passed away before that could happen.

[@danivansuperstar]

RIP Kenny. I grew up with him, too, and I love this. I also love listening to Tim's bassline on this. He literally sounds like an upright bass sometimes.

[@bikertrash64babe]

we love inappropriate & more home free 😀

[@MonicaGoodwin-qz5gd]

♥️🤠 HF. Great, great reaction. Love Kenny. They did amazing.

[@hayley_council]

This has been my favorite collaboration of theirs to date. So glad you did it. In an interview Chris Rupp is asked who was his favorite person to meet and sing with and he said Kenny without missing a beat. Also Chris was the one to start HomeFree, he drug Adam along with him. He left to start a solo career that has also been going really well.

[@BurnsBridges]

Dancing Jerzey is EVERYTHING 😂👏🏻 but Dancing Ogre is something that demands an encore. Loved the reaction, gentlemen. See you on the next one. ❤

[@lynnramsay8821]

They also collaborated with Alabama Christmas In Dixie .

[@sag2horses]

#HOMEFREE

[@mimigina7439]

You mentioned that Kenny & Dolly were played in your house, so I thought you’d be interested to know that just last week, Dolly did the halftime show at a Dallas Cowboys game. She’s such a legendary singer, as was Kenny* Hope y’all check it out!

[@disney4real]

Thank you for another wonderful Home Free reaction! It is so appreciated! ❤🤗

[@weaintraisedrightpodcast]

Thank you too!

[@VickieBetts-bk9kc]

Loved Ogre’s reaction like a little kid in a candy store and loved this video

[@sag2horses]

MAKE SURE YOU LISTEN TO THE MESSAGE AT THE END

[@peggybischoff2672]

So glad you did this one. Always looking forward to your Home Free reactions, keep them coming please!

[@weaintraisedrightpodcast]

More to come!

[@dianadickerson749]

They've done the same with Alabama, Oakridge Boys. Some gorgeous Christmas music.

[@DravenGal]

My mom listened to Kenny when I was a kid, and he was the only country star I really liked for much of my younger days (plus some Willie Nelson, of course). Frankly, Kenny is still my favorite, though I appreciate other country artists as well, especially Home Free.

[@belinda9696]

Kenny has this song with Home Free on the last Christmas album that he did. Home Free had said that Kenny was a very wise man and talked with them awhile and gave them tips and told him about his career and when it took off and such.

[@1OldBuzzard]

The first concert I ever got to go to was back in 1969 and Kenny Rogers and the First Edition. They were a rock band and were pretty darn good. I don't know how I missed this reaction when I was checking out what Home Free stuff y'all had done. Old age I guess. That's what got me watching y'all in the first place. See y'all tonight.

[@TheDivayenta]

This was Kenny’s number on his record- HE invited Home Free as guests on his album. This is an old Black Spiritual, btw.

[@ArleneAdkinsZell]

So glad yall did this one! Wonderful reaction, this is an old old song and I love their version of it.

[@babyfry4775]

Kenny sounded great for 75! Home Free did the Gambler as a tribute to him when he passed. I thought he looked great for 75. He has a totally different voice than they do. He’s got a strong gravely voice where Home Free are tremendous vocalists. They were great in back up. They also sing with Alabama (Christmas in Dixie), Oak Ridge boys, (Don McLean). Some great collaborations. They have great Christmas music. Some funny, some serious. Try Mary Did You Know, O Holy Night, Do You Hear What I Hear (Adam arranged it and it’s fabulous). 😍

[@peggygross7409]

This song was one of the tracks on Kenny's last album. Home Free are masters at collaborating without upstaging the artists they work with. You mentioned the collaboration with Don Maclane. American Pie is a much longer song. Don sang the first and last verses.By splitting up the verses they could cover all of it for the special 50th Anniversary rerecording of the song without cutting any of the verses. Glad you enjoyed it.

[@morganalori]

Awesome job. Amazing how good Kenny's voice is here. So many of the artists I listened to as a child (yep, grew up listening to his songs), I hear them sing now and their voice has not aged well. Kenny's voice was beautiful and very much as I remember. Great job with Home Free and this collaboration, this was so much fun to watch (so many smiles) and to see you'all geeking out about Kenny. I also look forward to you reacting to the Gambler.

[@bethcoussou]

Kenny had said in an interview or commentary somewhere I saw, that he was initially going to ask Pentatonix to record with him at first. That’s when his son’s teacher suggested he ask Home Free to record with him. After he searched KZbin, like he said here, he was rightly impressed. The Home Freeness guys were totally honored and obviously enjoyed every second. Would love to see you all react to their video with the Oak Ridge Boys singing “Elvira”. Talk about having fun! They all hit it off very well. The Oak Ridge Boys, after getting to know Home Free said they reminded them of themselves when they were Home Free’s age.

[@darlaharrelson6487]

Great reaction by y’all. This is a very special song a moment in history.

[@terimingle8957]

The fries love you!❤

[@joeseay2883]

Dude, they've not trying to take HIS song.! They're always respectful to other people.! They are trying to make him sound good.! Its about him.! I think he's about 81 here and still got it.!

[@debragonser745]

I loved Kenny Rodger’s

[@karinfichtner7479]

They were thrilled! And they were equally thrilled with the Oak Ridge Boys, Alabama, and, of course, Don Maclean. And you can really hear that Rob and Austin have done their share of Gospel singing in their time.😊 Check out Beautiful Star of Bethlehem with the ORBs.

[@arnieadam]

Home Fry here...and I do love you guys for your HF covers.

[@weaintraisedrightpodcast]

Awesome! Thank you!

[@darleneroberts9187]

great reaction as always and loved the song

[@timothykellison37]

First heard this song in the Billie Dee Williams Christmas movie Christmas Lilies of the Field in 1979 this is a great song. Side note Kenny Rogers first started as a rock singer in Kenny Rogers and the First Edition but switched to Country and went solo.

[@cindywilliams1099]

Should watch them with Alabama also

[@tamipatterson26]

Actually Kenny Rogers heard about Home Free from his sons teacher. He went home and looked them up and then contacted the group to sing this song with him

[@DravenGal]

Ogre, I think the term you were looking for was "Fangirling." LOL!

[@weaintraisedrightpodcast]

LOL

[@teresacartwright5406]

Back when Kenny Rogers was with his group The First Edition, they had a TV show "Rollin' on the River" in the early 1970s. It was filmed in Toronto (Ontario, Canada). I don't know if it aired at all in the U.S. I remember being kinda jealous 'cuz a classmate had gone to a taping with her boyfriend. After Kenny's passing, Home Free did a rendition of "The Gambler" as an homage to him.

[@teresacartwright5406]

They sing both "Elvira" and "Beautiful Star of Bethlehem" with the Oak Ridge Boys. They also have a collaboration with Alabama on "Christmas in Dixie" - in one of the late Jeff Cook's last appearances before his passing.

[@sallyintucson]

Both Kenny Rogers and Don McClain asked HF to work with them, not the other way around. The guy in the cowboy hat is Chris Rupp, cofounder of HF. He left to pursue a solo career. There’s a five part series about HomeFree’s history on his YT channel.

[@robertdocholliday66sadler]

them doing elvira with oak ridge boys and singing with Alabama is amazing too

[@rodconner9079]

Yep --- And do appreciate yall doin' HF ... They're beyond worth it!!! : ) Be Safe

[@sylviasargent2727]

This is on Kenny's Christmas album. I bought it long ago.

[@minneyruth]

I've noticed that you got a little bent out of shape because Don McLean didn't sing much in American pie.... that was probably Don's choice or I'm pretty sure there was a discussion about the arrangement LOL. HF never takes the spotlight. It's not a contest it's a group effort. Anyway...nice reaction guys...we all love Kenny 😍 Kenny is my absolute favorite country singer and always will be ❤❤ #HomeFree

[@glowormrdr6183]

When I want my mother to smile, I put this video on, also that Oak Ridge Boys/Home Free collab on "Elvira", and Austin w/ Rob on "Nessun Dorma". She's 92 and those all light her up like a Christmas tree. I learned to like country because of her, even though I'm L.A. born and raised. If only HF could do something with Willie before he passes, something from The Highwaymen, maybe. Btw, see HF do "My Church" if you haven't, already.

[@JacquelineBastick]

This Home Fry Grandma just subbed for more Home Free!! Keep them coming boys!!

[@weaintraisedrightpodcast]

Thank you! Will do!

[@wbish3]

If you enjoy seeing Home Free perform with Country legends then you need to check out "Beautiful Star of Bethlehem" and "Elvira" they did with the Oak Ridge Boys, and "Christmas in Dixie" they did with Alabama.

[@garywilliams4099]

Kenny Rogers started out as “Kenny Rogers and the First Edition”. You might look up “What Condition My Condition Is In”. Not a country song. He did transition to more country flavor. Nice reaction!

[@kmwwrench]

Definitely need to watch Elvira. Epic.

[@gardenlove6356]

Hi guys. Great reaction as always. Ogre, you might want to watch the video on the "Chris Rupp Official" channel he released 4 days ago talking about recording this video with Kenny. I think you'ld enjoy it. Keep the Home Free videos coming. 😊❤

[@richardkawucha1232]

Like the reaction. Not too keen on the "Red Sox" hat (I'm a 72 year old lifetime Detroit resident and Tiger fan.) But then I salute your support for your team. Point of information- I believe this wasn't too long before Kenny passed. I first heard him with his group, the First Edition. Kenny contacted them. Now that should give them a kick. You talk about how he's leading them, this is how the song was set up - Home Free is "accompanying him".

[@kathrynhlavac-sb7ny]

You glad you reviewed this and enjoyed it. I loved watching you all. Keep up the great job

[@weaintraisedrightpodcast]

Glad you enjoyed it

Kenny's oldest child is 65 and his youngest twin sons are 19. There are 5 children in all.

[@TheDivayenta]

If he died at 82 , that means he was 17 when he had his oldest?

[@katiecowan8211]

If you haven't checked it out, you should check out their version of Elvira with the Oak Ridge Boys

[@qatar824]

If you want to see the Home Free guys (especially Austin) "marking out" while working with legends, definitely move "Elvira" up the list. Everyone was having a fantastic time on that one.

[@gailw415]

Make sure you add the oakridge boys with Homefree “ oh beautiful star of Bethlehem “. It’s awesome

[@weaintraisedrightpodcast]

Added!

[@keithwestheider4234]

Check out their collaboration with the Oak Ridge Boys

[@weaintraisedrightpodcast]

It is definitely on our list!

[@HeavyMetalBluegrass]

The song predates Kenny Rogers by several decades. Love his voice on this song. Top notch collaboration.

[@coletedeux]

HF did Elvira with the Oak Ridge Boys more than worth a listen. Children Go Where I Send Thee is an old gospel song I learned as a child (I'm 70).

[@tamipatterson26]

Thats Chris Rupp

[@carinalindberg7377]

Well, you can take Home Free out and there would be nothing more than Kenny singing all on his own with no background or backup at all so it's not 75% Kenny, it's just 75% of Kenny singing lead. It was after all his song, his album and his idea to have them on it. But if we were to take each guy and time their parts then Kenny would have the least time. Kenny, btw, loved Home Free and he supported them as much as he could whenever he could.

[@cathyvettes]

Kenny had approached Home Free to do this song, because of how impressed he was with the group. So do I think Home Free is weighing Kenny down?? Hell no !! They all rocked this song... I never liked this song until this version.. Home Free just seems to have that affect. Listen to Home Free's version of a classic Doobie Brothers song "Listen to the Music" kzbin.info/www/bejne/hZCaeoyYqreajbMsi=AKBc5o6IT6tNvxEj I was a HUGE Doobie Brothers fan back in the day.. But I think with this song, Home Free outdid themselves..

[@Louvonia1]

I would love if you watched "The recording of Evergreen" by Pentatonix. I don't mind Home Free but they aren't even close to Pentatonix caliber.

[@disney4real]

We Home Fries will respectfully disagree and feel quite the opposite. But both groups are talented beyond belief and completely different genes, so to each his own! 🤗❤️

[@brendafrazier811]

Totally depends on what each person likes. Pentatonix (and Voiceplay) are definitely talented but neither appeal to me at all. Just not my style. I’ll pick Home Free 99% of the time.

[@hazelanglin5907]

It's not Kenny Rogers song

[@gailw415]

Kenny Rogers looked great until he had the plastic surgery. It didn’t work out the way he wanted

[@WendyJoJohnston]

I agree with you, he was aging ruggedly, like Kris Kristofferson.

[@gailw415]

@@WendyJoJohnstonExactly. He wasn’t really that old at this time it’s just the botched surgery. He was still fine before the surgery
