The look of disbelief on you're face for 3 minutes was epic. Yes, they are really this good. They have over 150 music vids. Take you're pick. They are all amazing.

[@Aprlmoore]

100% agreed

[@joeschmoe665]

“Do you hear what I hear” would be a great 2nd reaction.

[@miamidolphinsfan]

Welcome to the rabbit hole of Home Free ! Home Free has a bunch of good Christmas covers...look at their version og "O Holy Nihjt", but they cover a lot of good stuff but do lean a little bit towards Country, but don't be scared off, most of the stuff they cover is country/pop ....they recently did a cover of Dire Straits "Brothers in Arms" which will knock your socks off

Check out One Man Band by this marvelous group of voices! They are a treat for the ears and the soul!!

[@brendagrothier967]

Finally!!!!!! Home Free is an amazing vocal group/band. I rarely listen to bands with music anymore. Home Free, PTX, Voice Play and Octave are all I need. But Home Free is by far my favorite.

[@darlinmickey]

Exactly what I was going to say.

[@ohseedee27]

Welcome to the rabbit hole! I fell in last year and still haven't hit bottom. HF is country at the core but sing all genres and sing them beautifully. So talented. Some say they have no lead singer. I say they have four, five if their beatboxer Adam would agree to sing lead, lol. A few Christmas suggestions for you to choose from, if you would like: O Holy Night, Do You Hear What I Hear, Beautiful Star of Bethlehem with the Oak Ridge Boys, Children Go Where I Send Thee with Kenny Rogers, How Great Thou Art (though not exactly Christmas, it's a must hear). Or, to see their comedic side and a glimpse of their personalities, Grandma Got Run Over by a Reindeer. There are many more. You can't go wrong with any of them, that's a fact. Thanks for the reaction!

[@louisetemples7011]

Yes! Everything already mentioned! Great info @OhSeeDee!!!

[@wirelessmikedj7784]

Wonderful reaction...so now that you heard this, check out their "Do you hear what I hear" and "Children go where I send thee" ft Kenny Rodgers. Do you Hear what I hear was arranged by their vocal percussionist Adam Rupp who is also a co-founder of HF with his brother Chris Rupp who is now solo, but you will see him in older videos....but Do you Hear What I Hear is a intricate masterpiece of harmony and bass/percussion.

[@sherylhenley1931]

Loved your reaction, You should also check out Home Free's "When A Man Loves A Woman" and "O Holy Night" (the one they did 7yrs, ago)-both stunningly beautiful. BTW, you should rewind a little when you stop it because you miss some crescendos. Note-These guys can really touch your heart, your soul and your funny bone. They have a wonderful sense of humor and aren't afraid to play.

[@par500dragon7]

I'm so glad you finally discovered Home Free! I've followed them since watching them compete on and win the Sing-Off (a TV vocal competition). They have several great Christmas songs, but the most stellar (IMO) is Do You Hear What I Hear? It's stunning in all aspects - the setting, the arrangement, the vocals.

[@dawnmanzetti1633]

Mary, now knows about Home Free!! Happy Birthday 🎈

[@MikeHeavin]

Thank you for your reaction. Some you might really like include "Do You Hear What I Hear?" "How Great Thou Art," "Helplessly Hoping," "Brothers in Arms," and many more.

[@mettesrensen6116]

Greetings from a danish fry / new sub , Home Free label themself as All Male Country Vocalband but actually they sing Country/Pop/Soul/Rock/Rap/Hip Hop what ever you can think of they do and they are known for making every cover their own while showing the original artist respect and their original songs are amazing

[@minneyruth]

Well said ❤

[@tparmenter]

Love your reaction. They are seriously incredible. Check out their versions of O holy night and Do you hear what I hear?. You’ll have even more birthday presents!

[@shellyt3946]

You’ll come to know that these guys are serious musicians. But they also are generous with fans and best of all - they are hilariously funny! I’d say watch ‘Grandma Got Run over by a Reindeer’ for some Christmas funnies! I subbed when you found PTX…just been waiting for you to discover my guys and here we are 😎😁💃😏

[@marciaramirez3791]

Welcome! We Home Fries love it when a new reactor discovers Home Free! Home Free has the tightest harmony of any A Cappella group I've ever heard. The vocal range of each member is amazing, they share the lead in songs, before each performance they vote on who is best suited to lead with any given song, they lift up other artists and the joy, warmth and enthusiasm they bring to everything they do is contagious. The cover songs they do pay homage to the originals while putting their own stamp on them. They also have their own originals that are great. Might I suggest "How Great Thou Art", "Man Of Constant Sorrow", "American Pie" featuring the original singer/writer Don McLean, he chose Home Free to do the 50th anniversary of his iconic song with him, "Children Go Where I Send Thee" with Kenny Rogers, he too sought out HF to do this song with him and last but not least "Helplessly Hoping" a Cosby Stills and Nash classic topped off with "Brothers In Arms" a Dire Straits classic. Thank you and again welcome to the Home Free rabbit hole. Merry Christmas and wishing you, your family and friends love, joy and peace.

[@sherryarflin726]

Not just another a cappella group. IMO the best. I like the others but Home Free hands down is the best.

[@melbaprovenzola5566]

For me this is the only A Capella group I listen to, they are amazing with anything they sing😍

Home Free is the whole package🤗🐝❤️ I’m gonna subscribe to watch you discover Home Free🤗

Great reaction. If you want more goosebumps, try "Brothers in Arms," (I get teary-eyed every time I hear it) or even their rendition of "Do You Hear What I Hear," if you want to stick with Christmas.

[@hamblinta]

Keep watching their stuff…they’re a wonderful Christmas present! Finally, someone who sees/hears Home Free the way I do, they’re on a different level. Try their cover of “Man of Constant Sorrow,” “Bless the Broken Road,” “Butts Medley,” “Hillbilly Bone,” When A Man Loves A Woman,” “Band of Brothers just to name a few. They can sing any genre and do it as well or better than the original artist (in my opinion). Merry Christmas!

1st soloist -Tim Foust (basso profundo), 2nd soloist - Austin Brown (1st tenor), 3rd soloist - Rob Lundquist - 2nd tenor, bearded man on left - Adam "Chance" (baritone/bass) and man on right - Adam Rupp (beatboxer). You have a nearly endless catalogue to blow your mind available.

[@stevecausier4299]

Welcome down the rabbit hole, you’re in for a REAL treat !

[@f.n.schlub2269]

Seriously, there is a playlist for Home Free that is a grand, progressive intro, a connoisseur sampler of their talents. Their arrangements sometimes enter Master class territory. Nobody talks about, not their "harmonies", etc. but their absolute vibrato and tremolo (NOT the same thing) control; their vocal timbre sculpting creating overtone stacks that ... well ... Austin's (the high tenor) timbral mastery allows him to hide from individual notice in the upper overtones ... then adjust it slightly to appear again. Tim's cantabile basso profundo creates the overtone series into which the others enter, making the overtone column twist and gyrate through the song like a towering dancer composed of vibrations shaped and moved by their vocal commands. Start with the also seasonal "Auld Lang Syne", then progress on to "Helplessly Hoping" then their "Butts Medley". I really want to see your reactions to these ... and to a demonstration of true mastery , "Drum Solo".

[@BSGNative]

I'm a huge fan of Home Free & love it when someone discovers them for the first time. This is one of their best, IMO, but all their songs are great. Hope you'll check out more of them! Just pick any video. They're all excellent!

[@michaelriley8101]

Great reaction! Thanks!

[@ainhoabeitia]

Home Free is another level. You fell in their rabbit hole and it’s an amazing trip. You are going to love it!!

[@babyfry4775]

A big Happy Birthday! (Almost). Home Free is an incredible a cappella band. They are known for their harmonies. Loved the simple, serene setting. Loved the beatboxing, and Chance’s low notes. The man who started is Tim Foust and he’s the bass but has a 5 octave range and can sing super low and up to the tenor range. When Tim sings high Chance, the baritone/bass takes over bass. Chance was on the left. Austin is the high tenor and is amazing. Rob (glasses) is a tenor. Adam is the beatboxer. So many good songs. They sing a lot of covers but also write and sing their own songs. What I love about them is that they don’t mind being goofy too but silly or serious their music never suffers. Try Angels We Have Heard on High, Do You Hear What I Hear (amazing beatboxing in it), Helplessly Hoping, In the Blood. Great reaction. I just found them last year and have been amazed. They sound just as good live too.

[@louisetemples7011]

Great reaction sir! Our favorite guy's are phenomenally talented with hearts just as great! First time I heard this I was crying and covered in chill bumps! I had to remind myself to breathe! The thing is I've listened to it probably 100 times or more since it was released and it is still causing the same reaction from me! It's absolutely BRILLIANT! I've read the previous comments for request's and I second each one! Anxious to see your Home Free journey!

[@tomhansen4576]

Depending on whether you want to react to more Christmas songs first, I suggest O Holy Night, Do You Hear What I Hear and Snow Globe, a Home Free original co-written by the bass, Tim Foust. The first two recommendation include the CoFounder of the group Chris Rupp. He wears a cowboy hat in one of them. The other co-founder is his brother Adam Rupp who is a world class beat boxer, but he is more of a vocal percussionist and basically a human drum kit. If you want to react to their more traditional music, I suggest you begin with Man of Constant Sorrow, How Great Thou Art, When A Man Loves A Woman, and Bless The Broken Road for starters. Home Free has a huge fan base known as the Home Fries. Once you start reacting to HF, your channel viewership will climb exponentially. Enjoy and Merry Christmas!

[@stanrock2225]

They will never disappoint you. They never miss on a song. I think they leveled up during the song...lol Area 51 called and wants Home Free back...

That was beautiful. I'm a Pentaholic but they nailed it. 😌😌

[@HenryCabotHenhouse3]

Welcome to Home Free. I'll give you the standard warning: While their cover of Mayday is excellent you will not be as impressed as you should be unless you watch enough of their other videos that you recognize each face and know what the voice will sound like before watching Mayday. I would suggest Auld Lang Syne, Helplessly Hoping, How Great Thou Art, Some Girls Do, and Die a Happy Man to get a good listen to all of their voices in leads (even the beat boxer in How Great). If you just want some great fun watch The Butts Remix and Champagne Taste.

[@jillchamberlain6478]

It’s always wonderful to see a new convert learn the ways of Home Free!! Great reaction!!

[@marciaramirez3791]

Sorry, forgot to add for a look at the lighter side of Home Free check out "Champagne Taste on a Beer Budget", "Full of Cheer" and "Working For a Living" and for a romantic Christmas song " Snow Globe", all are HF originals except Working for a Living. Again thank you for the great reaction, loved it.

[@maryluger-sartor9411]

One of the best early Christmas song they do with a different baritone is Do You Hear What I Hear. Filmed in Minnesota at an Ice Castle, arranged by the beat boxer, Adam Rupp. Listen for the Tenor to Bass drop in the middle by Tim Foust who sang the first lead in Mary Did You Know. They have another song they did with Kenny Rogers, Children Go Where I Send Thee. SNOWGLOBE was written by Tim and is a beautiful love song for Christmas. For a little fun try, Full of Cheer.

The look on your faith was priceless! I watched you and was in amazement that you seemed to be unaware of them! HOME FREE has been singing together for around 20 years. They have an extensive catalogue. Tim Foust, the bass, has a 5 octave range. Adam Rupp holds 2 World Championships in beat boxing! The other 3 are Austin Brown, Adam Chance, and Robb Lundquist! Together they are spectacular with every song they sing. If you like this song, then you should delve down the rabbit hole and explore.

You totally won me over with your reaction to Home Free! I'm subbed for life now. We Home Fries (Home Free fans) will follow you on each journey you make with them. And you have so much to discover about their vocal and beatboxing abilities! You must listen to your subs and much as we'd love you to throw in a Home Free song each week, we know you have other bands/groups to react to. Wishing you all the best!

[@grannymitch9475]

“The Picasso of a cappella” is probably the best description for this band I’ve heard from reactors, and what a great song to start you down the rabbit hole that is Home Free! It’s a deep hole, but you won’t want to climb out. And I guarantee if you react to them, the Home Fries (fans) will most definitely come! Definitely do Brothers in Arms for more awesome and moving harmonies. Helplessly Hoping, Ring of Fire (with Avi Kaplan) and -of course- Man of Constant Sorrow. A piece of advice: do not do Mayday until you’ve reacted to about a half dozen songs and know who and what each member does. Pick pretty much any one of their songs and you won’t be disappointed. I won’t list their names, as I’m sure several someones have probably done so. Enjoy the journey!

[@sherryarflin726]

Ring of Fire, Butts Medley, How Great Thou Art, Man of Constant Sorrow, Mayday, Helplessly Hoping and Brothers in Arms. Some you might want to check out.

[@jackiestone3468]
