Great song dedicated to life of the legend, Mr. Vincent Van Goh- Whom Don believed deserved more credit and recognition for his work during the time on earth rather than after. This is a beautiful tribute.

HomeFree sang this with so much respect and beauty . Don McLean is a legend who still has a great voice. ❤🥰

[@MommaBird52]

For a couple years I have been having a reoccuring dream that Home Free did this song and my dreams came true. My hubby of 52 years is Vincent and a painter.

[@peggygross7409]

Yes, Rob's voice reminds me of a Don McLean. Great reaction.

[@momD612]

Home Free is always so respectful to the original artists of the songs they cover or collab with. & to have done 2 with the great Don McLean.... just wow! ❤❤

[@jz9922]

3rd: don McLean, American boys. new song

[@JoanN63]

This is truly phenomenal! What a voice Don McLean still has! Wow. And of course Austin also sang great, but Rob's voice is just perfect for this song. His voice so warm, soft as silk and full of emotion. The quiet background vocals and guitar playing complete it for me. It's the same song as my youth, but with the Home Free twist it's something different. A beautiful song where I, of course, as a Dutch person, know the history of Vincent van Gogh well. If I could, I would have given Don McLean and Home Free a bouquet of sunflowers in memory of Vincent. The sunflower one of his most famous paintings 🌻...... 💖 💖💖💖💖💖

[@karenkincaid5569]

I've never been able to listen to Don's version without crying. This was very beautiful and wonderful to hear Austin again.

[@nightthornkvala94132]

This song leaves me in tears every time.

[@babyfry4775]

I thought it was perfect and yes, Don sounds great! Rob was the perfect choice to add to this song and those harmonies were wonderful! 🤩😄

[@PaulaThompson-x9w]

I've always loved this song and Home Free has made me love it even more. Bonus, we get to hear Adam's sweet voice. Don still sounds wonderful. And, Rob!!! Thanks for the Home Free reactions

[@sharonmortimer3843]

They did an absolutely amazing job with this song. Rob is definitely the perfect voice for the song. But i also loved how Austin also sounded so good. I've always loved when Rob and Austin sing after each other. Don sounds absolutely amazing just like old times. Home Free also did a song with him on his new album from what i understand. I really enjoyed watching your reaction to this song.

[@dagmar.6954]

This is such a great song by Don McLean! He originally did it in 1972. What a great remake with Home Free! Rob's voice is perfect for this song. Such a beautiful tribute to the sad life of the painter Vincent Van Gogh. He suffered from depression & committed suicide. He never saw any success during his life. But now his paintings are worth millions of dollars.

[@beckiramsey9561]

Such a beautiful song by Don McClean! I think thy do a great job adding in harmonies and some solos with Rob and Austin, very beautiful! And Don sounds great!❤ Love how they end the video fading into the painting and then they are outside the painting in the museum! Such a great collaboration!!❤❤ Thanks Zach, for you wonderful reaction!!❤❤❤

[@teniahayzlett2709]

I want the final painting !! ❤❤❤❤❤❤

[@glendamcgrady1244]

Love Home Free; Rob was great! Enjoy your reactions, Zack.

[@nanadeborah8717]

I always wanted Home Free to cover this song. It's my favorite Don McLean song. Rob's voice adds that richness and emotion that brings a tear to my eyes. It captured the poignancy of the lyrics. Thanks!

[@Graniepanies]

Sing it Austin ❤ wonderful beautiful harmony with Don

[@vickiadkins9844]

Truly stunning

[@BarbaraBooker-t1u]

Beautiful !🥰 3:33

[@cherylschroeder3344]

Thanks for your recto this great song. Loved it so much! I grew up listening to Don McLean, and love that him and Home Free did this together 😊🥰

[@sythompson9331]

Don picked well when he chose HF to do the 50th anniversary of American Pie. Now this is lovely. They are always so respectful when they work with legends

[@denise_landry]

Simply beautiful ~ thanks Zack 🍟

[@lindareynolds8430]

#HOMEFREE....so beautiful!

[@chelseahaley8350]

Loved that! Don definitely still has it! ❤

[@BradYaateeh.]

Pure magic once again! What songs sound like when the poet sings them.

[@R989D]

I went to an interactive multi sensory Van Gogh exhibit which was a lot like this video with his art being projected on 50ft high walls to music. Beautiful version of the song.

[@orlylivne]

First, I really love the humorous touch in "purchasing" a painting. Maybe the intention in this performance is to maintain an equal vocal presence to preserve its harmony. Both artists are great! Don McLean 's voice remains truly exceptional. Memories: this song brings me back to the 1970s - 1980s, especially songs like 'American Pie' with its intensive lyric., Thanks for your reaction

[@morgonerlenstar]

Vincent is my favourite painter and this song is so perfectly written about him. ❤ This was simply beautiful

[@teresacartwright5406]

It's hard to believe that Don McLean first sang this in 1972 (wow do I feel old . . . wait, I am old). "American Pie" was filmed separately during the Covid lockdowns & it's so good to see them actually being able to sing together. Don McLean still sounds terrific & Home Free's harmonies are always outstanding. #HomeFree

[@SarahAden-zb3np]

Thank you Zack for playing this song. Home free did a great job with Don. Don still have a good voice. ❤❤❤❤😊😊

[@pastelcarnations]

Very emotional and very beautiful

[@lisaseverance6785]

Don recently released a new album. On one track, he has Home Free join him. You should check out his new music!

[@dianel222]

HF arrangements serve the song/artist. Even Austin lost the Georgia accent & used his musical theatre voice. 💜💜💜

[@glendamcgrady1244]

Loved this collaboration!

[@rebeccaburnell9319]

5:45 - exactly what hit me when he sang the first lyrics - McLean still has such a strong, *flexible* voice! Vocal cords become less flexible as you age, never mind any other normal wear and tear that might have happened to your lungs to impact your breath support for producing sustained sound - it all changes your voice & tone, even though it also often gives character to a person's singing voice. Seems astonishing that his voice is still so clear and flexible. Doesn't seem to have lost the tenor range, either (though I can't say I have a sense of how high his range was when he was young, nor whether this recording was done in the same key he originally wrote it in; singers sometimes transpose a song they wrote when they were younger, down a half step or full step, to accommodate an aging voice). Edit: I guess the guys from Home Free took the melody during the bridge, with its higher notes, but McLean's still singing pure tenor range in a clear voice there.

[@connieharmon2408]

They Sound Amazing ❤

[@tygerbrite]

Very good points about what the song needed, and didn't.

[@marciaramirez3791]

Perfection!

[@kmwwrench]

The title for their video is so misleading. It's actually Don featuring Home Free. He invited them to back him on this re-recording for his new album. They also back him on the title track, American Boys, which is a real bop.

[@cowboy1165]

At $180,000,000? I'll love Van Gogh from a distance.

[@dianeritthaler7792]

Beautiful

[@AuntDandy]

This was beautiful!💜💜💜

[@ShaunComnerley-zi3xr]

It was a beautiful song anyway would by Don McLean but a day sure put this together great with home Free

[@MelindaBrown-yz5jc]

❤️❤️

[@minneyruth]

❤❤

[@karehelene]

This is truly beautiful. I don't normally listen to Home Free. They are very talented, but too country for my tastes. However, I'm very glad I decided to listen to this.

[@Rkbmomma]

HF does a lot of songs that are not country.

[@karehelene]

@@Rkbmomma I somewhat realize that, but at the same time, I've heard enough of their country music that I'm not generally inclined to listen to them. It's just a matter of musical taste. As I said this was beautiful and I'm happy I gave it a chance.

[@KeatingChick]

They also did American Pie with Don. Not sure if you've also reacted to it or not.

[@JohnT-i5z]

Funny how HF songs have one listening more closely to the lyrics.

[@kimzwolinski9919]

❤❤❤

[@antrazitaj5209]

They put the song first. And this is not the type of song that needs much

[@LadyDragonsblood]

It isn't VanGO.... it is VanGOFF. Sorry, just a pet peeve of mine. Whatever, can never get through this song without tears.... if only Vincent could have known how loved he would be....

[@Rkbmomma]

VanGoff is how it is pronounced in the UK. Vincent was Dutch and they pronounce it Van Go-ho or Van Ho-ho

[@LadyDragonsblood]

@@Rkbmomma The VanGoff pronunciation is very close to the Dutch, just a bit harder GH sound...like in the German..one of those hard ones for English speakers to get their tounge around because we don't have that sound in our alphabet.... I just get bugged when they say VanGO. It was just drilled into my head by my art history professor in college.
