The Swolemates reaction to "Champagne Taste on a Beer Budget" by Home Free. 😂😂

[@cheridampier2524]

Tim wrote this one, his sense of humor is evident. He also wrote a follow-up to this called Full of Cheer, it too is funny

[@TheWrath74]

Will check that one out too!

[@mettesrensen6116]

When ever you hear whistling in a HF song it´s Rob Lundquist , the best whistler in a cappella

[@fogdog165]

I saw that flicker of recognition and yes, that was Avi Kaplan in the walk-by toast, on the bull at the end AND putting the champagne glass on the table to begin the bar scene. Good call on Rob's whistling prowess, he's one o the best in the bidness. He has a longer feature in Quarantine. And finally let me just say, you lucky bastard! All that and she's a thrift store girl too? Yer livin' the charmed life there bud. Great job Swolie folk. Again!

[@theswolemates]

🤣🤣

[@nightthornkvala94132]

Avi was there because they'd just done shooting Ring of Fire and was hanging around.

[@johnmoody8887]

Check out the sequel, "Full of Cheer". So great back to back. Check out some of their live stuff.

[@PrinceJediMaster]

And yes that was Avi. They shot this around the same day as Ring of Fire.

[@robv4936]

When she stopped it with his mouth open lol😂

[@MichaelSimmons.]

Another great older Home Free original, is, Good Ol' Country Harmony. There's a cute video of the guys as kids, coming together for a talent show. You also get to hear Austin really go off a couple of times, near the end. Great job guys.

[@dagmar.6954]

That was such a fun video. These guys know how to have fun without compromising their vocals. Rob is great with his whistling. And you are right about Adam's vocal percussion. He can simulate any drum sounds. Heard drummers comment on how realistic he sounds. Home Free are my favorite a cappella band out there.

[@marlahudgins7038]

The somg FULL OF CHEER explains what happened lol

[@jesj27]

Let's Goooo!!! #HOGFry

[@sharonmortimer3843]

This is a Tim Foust original, and sort of has a sequel called Full of Cheer from their first Christmas Album. Truly enjoyed watching your reaction to this song.

[@anitawright7169]

Great original by Tim! These guys are so good. Love your reactions!

[@disney4real]

I have been really enjoying your Home Free reactions! 👍💜

[@jackiestone3468]

This is the first song Tim Foust wrote. He didn’t want to sing country but they wanted him to. So he went back to his room and wrote a song that he just knew was gonna be a flop….little did he know lol the harmonies, Adam’s beatboxing and Rob’s whistling were so good! Did y’all notice Avi stopping by to bump beers with Tim? If you will look close you can also see him in the last scene (in the background)look between Tim and Chris on top of the bar. Lol Thanks for reacting to this song, I love it! I love Home Free😊

[@itzel1735]

I think a bottle of Jack Daniels was involved too.

[@sandym6760]

Dedicated Home Fry here, found your channel with the Country Fried Pop Medley, and (as I tend to do) started binge watching your HF Reactions to see how genuine you are. When I heard "I'm a Thrift Shop Girl", I knew that I HAD to subscribe!! *Shaking your hands* .... Yep. I simply can't bring myself to buy new -- unless it's on Clearance ;) I had 7 kids, and I KNOW how to make money stretch ....

[@janetmcclure8568]

Their singing always make me smile!

[@joanwharff6483]

Too fun & Too short 😋🙃😂‼️

[@madamred2061]

I'm so glad y'all are loving Home Free. #HOGFry

[@theswolemates]

We are so glad to have you with us!

[@PrinceJediMaster]

Another great reaction to a Tim original.

[@miamidolphinsfan]

This was written by Tim, the bass and is of course an original !!! It's always a good one to bring a good smile to ya !

[@thetoothlesscarnivore]

This is a cute one from their live show a long while back, kzbin.info/www/bejne/oIfZpqWAmLipq5Y , titled what were you thinking while you were singing. lol. It will put a smile on your face too. Hugs and keep the great reactions coming.

[@justmejoy124]

Hell yes thrifty is me too....I never cared much for the taste of champagne NOR an empty bank acct. neither but it has happened & this ol gal knows how to adjust & make do. Lol I remember a my mom saying to me when I was younger & on her about something I wanted in a store & kept begging plz plz for. She said "You are old enough where your "wants" won't hurt ya! " She was right I wanted it but didn't need it. I knew her struggle as a single parent in the 70s & after a min. I was all good with it. I understood her, the lesson, & how to take care & appreciate what I have had the privilege of earning in my life🧡🤘🏼😎 this one was a fun song. Love that guys deep tone💯🤘🏼

[@louisetemples7011]

On the Home Free channel you can check out their Behind The Scene videos, From the Vault videos on their video list and playlist. Some real up close and personal stuff that you will enjoy to see how the guys are in the times you mentioned. When they are hanging around on set, traveling on the bus, between takes on location for making videos etc...! Lots of fun!♥️

[@MonicaVennell]

Did you catch the sound of the beer can opening? Great reaction. Can't wait for more.

[@george217]

Around Christmas time check out the Quasi sequel called "Full of Cheer"...

[@odinspromise]

This is absolutely my all time favorite Homefree video, it's just so relatable. My last wife was like that, but the angel I have now, well let's just say we've been together just over 10 years now and her idea of "Date Night" is supper at Subways, a stop at the hooch store for a 30 pack of Miller High Life and a $10 shopping spree at the local Good Will Store! I love this woman! You two are so much fun, glad I found your channel. PEACE!!!!!

[@Trishapurpleprincess]

I loved this and your reaction!! I am a self proclaimed thrift store addict! Lol 3/4 of my wardrobe has come from local thrift stores

[@bridgetmccracken1381]

We shop at "Big Lots" 😆 so there lol. Love this side of Home Free as well as their beautiful harmonies. much needed these days

[@TheWrath74]

Hell yeah.. remember big lots well lol

[@2wheels298]

You two are so much fun to watch... Thrift store girl ??? LOL Love it.. Glad y'all got to this one too... Every time I watch their videos, I see something different. In this one Adam, sitting at the table, spills his beer TWICE ...Catch y'all later...

[@theswolemates]

Glad you enjoyed!

[@angelodicamilo8372]

Not sure if you guys caught it or maybe you didn't know but the cameo towards the end is Avi Kaplan [originally of Pentatonix]. I think this was filmed after they finished Ring Of Fire feat Avi Kaplan [check me if I'm right]. Other originals I can think of are Good Ol' Country Harmony and Cross That Bridge [among others]. Thanks for reacting.

[@theswolemates]

Yeah we caught it.. got too wrapped up in the performance to mention it.. if you notice Daniel actually points at the screen when he cameos. Thanks for watching!

[@rebeccagibbs8794]

Y'all are too freaking cute! Love Home Free! Love this reaction! Love my "sister" thrift store girl' lol!

[@theswolemates]

❤🤣

[@larrybutler8948]

Tim said on a Interview that his Boss at the time came in and said he needed to write country Songs, Tim didn't want to. But his Boss said do it or get fired. So he said I guess I am a country western writer now. He said he drank a 5th of wild turkey and wrote this song hoping his Boss would say no goo back to writing pop. lol This song became a Favorite of fans. It backfired on him.

[@nethanelmasters5170]

Avi Kaplan doing a cameo at the end in the black cowboy hat he put on at the end of Ring of Fire. The coverall tim is wearing show up again on someone else in butts medley.

[@donapaterson832]

Dam you guys are awesome

[@minneyruth]

❤❤

[@hamblinta]

Try “This Is How We Roll,” “9 to 5,” “Guilty Pleasures,” “Songs That Didnt Make the Cut,” Adam Rupp drum solos, “Friends in Low Places” just to name few.

[@lrfcowper]

Among all the other hijinks in this video, Adam energetically sloshes his beer out of his glass not once but twice and just goes on beatboxing.

[@isamayoub4437]

How did u really like that cigars

[@TheWrath74]

Enjoyed it!

[@scottdarden3091]

Daniel I thought you caught Avi but you didn't say anything.

[@lisaseverance6785]

No shame being a thrift store girl! There are some great deals to be found there! I have been thrifting for years, which is partially why our house is paid for! 😂

[@collin123oneal]

Love the reactions yall keep it real and straight forward yall should check out FJ outlaw- poverty and FJ-water yall want be disappointed

[@theswolemates]

Will do!

[@isamayoub4437]

What up

[@babyfry4775]

Hahaha, isn’t this funny?!!! An original written by Tim. I’ve heard years ago some management (not current) told him to only write country songs and he wanted to do more but they insisted so he got drunk and wrote this in one night. Pretty funny. Did you see Avi make an appearance? Haha. Rob is a great whistler. He is the whistler in the group. Loved the lyrics. I won’t see her pretty face at all cause the prison’s no where near the mall. Hahaha. Great reaction!

[@shawn4888]

If you are looking for a funny video, home free did a big lewbowski video to "this is how we roll"

[@daleb1279]

I love how Avi from Pentatonix does that quick walk thru in front of them near the end of the video.

[@wirelessmikedj7784]

This was filmed right after "Ring of Fire ft Avi" and he was still hanging around so did a quick appearance on this...his hand putting the champagne glass on the table, the walkthrough and the pose on the bull at the end....

[@minneyruth]

I see that Elvira got blocked 😭 did you like it? Home Free's new stuff doesn't get blocked, they have their own label from what I understand. Just wondering if you liked it. ❤❤

[@theswolemates]

We did like it! Hopefully we can get it unblocked soon

[@minneyruth]

@@theswolemates awesome 🥰

[@intermenater]

You didn't notice Avi? Come on.

[@theswolemates]

Yes noticed avi
