THIS WAS STUNNING!!!!!! Blind reaction to Home Free - Helplessly Hoping

[@ElizabethRoss-uj8rl]

This is the one definitive work proving beyond doubt that Home Free is made up of virtuosos, masters of tone, timing, harmony and performance. They syncronize even the vowel sounds. 5 voices creating one perfect instrument.

[@leslieoneal4464]

Wow! I'm pretty sure that was a perfect way of saying it! 👍🤯❤

[@florencegrant-mc7bb]

Well said!

[@rachelginter3616]

Yes yes yes so true

[@babyfry4775]

One of my favorites! This is Chance’s baby. He directed it. It’s so stunning. Black & white and they’re all in black and it’s just them singing. Love it! Yes, I agree. The only complaint? It’s too short. Great reaction!😍

[@megancooper1710]

I’d argue saying this song has their cleanest and clearest harmonies

[@teresacartwright5406]

The video was directed by Chance (no - not inadvertency - Adam Chance). The vocals are just stunning and we even get to hear Adam Rupp sing! A master class on acapella in one song.

[@andyb1653]

Literally the BEST acipella group who ever put voice to tape. Up there with "Pentatonix".

[@lrfcowper]

The only thing that makes this song not quite perfect is how short it is, but so is the original.

[@judyhausler7057]

One of the rare songs that we are treated to hearing Adam sing, I love it!

[@mandysmith1756]

Such a perfect jewel of a performance. Adam Chance took the lead on this in more ways than one - he also directed the video. And it's always lovely to hear Adam Rupp singing.

[@tracyschafer6450]

This is not only a song, it's an experience.

[@pixiematlis2790]

OMG spelled Home Free!

[@wbish3]

Chance suggested this song to the group and directed the video while Tim did that awesome arrangement.

[@rllangevin3841]

Great reaction! Since you loved Chance’s lead in this one it’s now official, you MUST react to I Can’t Outrun You - also directed by Chance who has the lead throughout. It’s just gobsmacking 5-part harmonies (no percussion or beatboxing) with a video that pulls at your heartstrings. Can’t wait for you to finally react to this one - by now you know, Home Free never disappoints!!

[@rosiewoodhouse5503]

Yes! I Can't Outrun You!!!

[@leslieoneal4464]

Nothing quite like Home Free's gorgeous, perfected 5-part harmonies!! Love getting to hear Adam's sweet tenor voice. 💞🎶😘

[@rebeccamccann8710]

I’m old, and always loved the CS&N original version, but Home Free outdid themselves with this. Chance and Rob singing in perfect unison at the beginning before adding the beautiful harmonies truly showcase the incredible talent these men possess. Great reaction!

[@DennisKovacich]

The first time I heard this, I wasn’t watching and didn’t realize a second person had even joined in!

[@melissakay6143]

This is perfect in the same way as "Brothers in Arms". Haunting, beautiful harmonies of 5 guys just singing together as if they were born to do it. I'm so happy I found Home Free 🎉 and love your reactions to them!

[@cmitchell7347]

Their ability to sync their breathing and time the starts/stops, to sound as one voice. Their 5-part harmonies which bring that rich, signature 'church organ' effect. Amazingly talented, individually, and beyond awesome together.

[@JaniceCW61]

Especially the first part. The way they match not only their breathing, but the vowel shapes & diphthongs is astonishing!!! ❤💜💙

[@dagmar.6954]

I grew up listening to Crosby, Stills & Nash & had their album with this song Helplessly Hoping. Absolutely loved them & their harmonies. This song is full of alliterations. Home Free more than does justice to all the songs they cover. And this song is perfection to me with the 5 part harmonies. A true masterpiece! I can't say enough about how great these guys are & humble while still staying respectful to the original song.

[@beadwright]

They performed this live, off mic, at the Ryman. There are YT videos of the performance available to show their mastery of live, performance harmony too.

[@richb313]

When all 5 of them sing you know you are in for a treat.

[@changlyn100]

Listen to how long Tim holds that low note.

[@mimiforester1786]

Have always love this song by Crosby, Stills & Nash by I personally love Home Free’s version so much more because of the simplicity of beautiful harmonies. Thanks for the great Great reaction❤❤

[@lindamorrison9755]

Just listened to Crosby, Stills and Nash singing this and Home Free did it so much better they made it their own like they have done with many songs

[@Autumn8564]

Adam Rupp has a beautiful voice as well. He rarely takes a solo, although he does sing solo in a part of “How Great Thou Art”.

[@coletedeux]

Chance not only sings lead on Skull and Bones, he wrote it.for a vid game. The developers came to Home Free and asked them to come up with a song for their game. It will blow you away.

[@geniej9093]

This is one of HF's masterworks.

[@celtzen]

This is one of my favourite HF covers - there is just something so pure about it- I was raised on CSN-Y and I personally think this outstrips the original (as amazing as it is)

[@200yente]

This is the song I usually recommend after A Man of Constant Sorrow because it show a completely different view of what they can do.

[@florencegrant-mc7bb]

It doesn’t get any better than this. Close to absolute perfection, a Master Class in harmony. Gorgeous waves of sound envelope me.

[@cheridampier2524]

Home Free's five part harmony can't be beat...a daily standard on my Playlist

[@kmwwrench]

This is so beautiful. Master class in 5-part harmony. I think Chance directed and he and Tim arranged. Someone correct me if I got that wrong.

[@carladewitt1947]

This was my favorite Crosby, Stills and Nash song when I was in high school/college. It is now one of my favorite HF covers, and the one I always recommend for people just to hear the sheer majesty of the vocal magic these amazing guys create.

[@itzel1735]

I went back and listened to the original, and discovered HF had taught me a lot about the song I hadn’t realized in the 1970’s.

[@geminilady75]

I absolutely love that this was stripped back and it's purely vocal. Such a beautiful cover ❤

[@brendasorenson6186]

In my mind, CSN sang this as a folk song while HF sang it like art.

[@garyfoos2193]

I've loved this song since CSN did it originally, but this Home Free version is even better than the original. The harmonies, the arrangement, the production, the video, all perfect.

[@theironherder]

Just a broken record comment: Your reactions to songs that you love are among the best on KZbin. I've said that before, and I'll bet that I get to say it again. Thanks.

[@gilliandrysdale5306]

that was beautiful and very different but just as good (if not better?) than the original ❤🏴󠁧󠁢󠁳󠁣󠁴󠁿

[@stanrock2225]

5 part harmonies with Home Free is unmatched.

[@critterwatcher8009]

LOL. A common reaction: NO! It can't be over yet.

[@mswitch936]

Probably one of my favorites from them. Its so clean and so pure. Only complaint? Its too damn short!

[@dotwyness4110]

I love this one, cant wait for your reaction, itll be tomorrow morning when i see it, a bit late for this oldie ❤ waiting for Skull and Bones 💀☠️

[@starstuff84]

I've been waiting for this for so very long and that you finally get a chance to hear it makes me beyond happy. BTW, That clear high voice you hear is Adam. He had the this the most beautiful crystal clear timber to his voice.

[@dianadickerson749]

This again was a Chance project, along with Can't Out Run You. Believe he directed both also.

[@marciaramirez3791]

If I had to pick just one Home Free song as my absolute favorite, this would be the one.

[@hollyevoy2118]

This song gives me goosebumps every time. I love Home Free & their Accappella sounds. I love the way they keep building the voices! Chance is amazing & highly underrated. If you haven’t heard it yet, you need to check out Skull & Bones that Chance wrote. Thanks for the great reaction.

[@JoanN63]

There just isn't much to say about this. So good harmonies, so beautiful sung! So different voices, but still one. So short but o so powerful

[@changlyn100]

This is amazing! The control it takes to do this is absolute great talent.

[@roniboyd613]

Love, love, love your reaction😊 Another awesome song with Chance singing lead is "Cover Me Up", I especially like the ending😜

[@wolfe6220]

Yes! That should be his next HF reaction! ❤

[@wadebowenfan6743]

Love this version! Hope you will consider reacting to "In the Blood" and "Brothers in Arms" by them, as well - they will blow your mind!! Great reaction!! xx

[@reneroberson2784]

Oh I would love for you to do I Can't Outrun you.. Chances voice and the harmony behind it this so hauntingly beautiful... I would love to see your reaction to I can outrun you.. if you react like the rest of the people that reacted to this oh my goodness you are not going to be disappointed I promise. 🏡🆓🏡🍟

[@deborahdanhauer8525]

This is one of my favorites too. This is Home Free in the raw. Just the best voices out there singing a beautiful song. Nothing else needed.❤️🤗🐝

[@GreybeardMO]

Got to hand it to the original artist... it's a wonderful song. Absolute ear candy. Repeated first letters, homophones, and the incredible harmonies... Home Free does a great job here, with great material to work with.

[@susanengland3919]

It's exciting to hear Adam sing for a change.

[@wendywallis2956]

This is one of my favorite Home Free songs...it is a master class in harmonies!

[@ronfaulkner3925]

I was helplessly hoping you would get to this one soon. Great reaction as usual. like most of us, I wish it were longer.

[@AndieO]

One of favorite songs by the boys.

[@dorothywest1951]

Hello to my pocket person! I thoroughly enjoyed your reaction to this one! ( But I enjoy all of your reactions.) This is my favorite bedtime song and one of my two favorite Home Free songs. I just find it to be a great stress reliever. I had to wait to watch this reaction until I was finished with absolutely everything else for the day. I did not want ANYTHING distracting me from watching the joy that I knew you would have hearing this. And yes, we all just want it to keep going.Have a fabulous day and keep listening to the music!

[@trinaward1005]

Amazing as always!!

[@anitawright7169]

This is so very awesome! Home Free does it yet again! Love your reaction!

[@JaniceCW61]

The only weird for this song is Perfection. I play this on repeat because I wasn't to cry at how short it is. Big hugs DJ! Just wanted to let you know that when I have a bad day, I'll binge your videos because you can always put a smile on my face! 💙💜❤

[@Marysmith-kh7dt]

Absolutely love this song. First time I heard it it totally blew me away. Still one of my favorites from them.

[@shercahn]

There is a live recording of this on YT but it's rare for them to do this live (in my opinion because of how technically hard it is but I don't know if that's the real reason). Needless to say they don't do it live often.

[@brianb160]

For what it's worth, the original is one of my favorite songs by Crosby, Stills, & Nash and Home Free performed it very much like they did... very plain and exposed with nothing to hide behind. Truth be told I honestly prefer the original, but they did an amazing job at recreating it. Just found your channel this evening and I love it... keep up the good work.

[@Arachnia_Sea]

You called it, I ended up adding this song to my bedtime playlist... great reaction

[@wolfe6220]

I really, really wish they would do more 5 part harmonies.

[@rebeccagibbs8794]

The best, period!! ❤

[@kimking6036]

This is one of Home Free's songs I listen to that helps me cope with the pain I'm in. I'm forever grateful to them for that.

[@reneroberson2784]

This is why I love these guys so much.. Every song absolutely gorgeous..🏡🆓🏡🍟

[@edsartistry]

It is such a pleasure to hear Adam singing not beatboxing. Tim's low bass notes are EPIC and yes this was waaaaaay too short. But like Pentatonix , these guys are truly top of the class in a cappella talent and the videos are fantastic as well.

[@Happynick88]

I'd love to see you react to Home Free's covers of God Bless the Broken Road, Hillbilly Bone, and Thinking Out Loud / Let's Get It On.

[@bethcoussou]

It’s a work of art! Perfection! One of my top 3 favorites of all Home Free songs/videos! You’ve become one of my favorite reactors!

[@karentrupp3746]

I think this is one of HF best EVER

[@christinadowdican3268]

Thanks to everyone for this. I had forgotten just how beautiful this is & how much I love it.😊❤ Dj you are fast becoming one of my favorite reactors wonderfully done. Now I'm going back to watch it 20+ more times Def on my Playlist now! Til next time❤❤❤❤😊

[@vickiadkins9844]

5 part harmony. Stunning.

[@joanwharff6483]

I just love the pure harmony…..sooooo Beautifully done…..Pure Ear Candy🎶🎵‼️🫶🏼 And, yes…..Way Tooooo Short 🙃🎶🎵‼️

[@peggygross7409]

Ear candy. Sends shivers up and down my spine as each voice is added. Another great analysis from you

[@rolandratz1]

So when I hear that song I get 1cm high goosebumps, it's a perfect case of skill. In addition, the "ambiguous lyrics", the harmonies, the bass - it also does not detract from Qulität that the song is only so short - this is a listening pleasure of the first order... AND right after that comes "Mayday"...

[@elvwood]

Just beautiful, a masterclass in how simplicity can work well in the hands (throats?) of such virtuoso performers. I'm so glad I'm going to get to see them - it's going to be a bit of a trek but worth it.

[@sandracarey4352]

A masterpiece in five part harmony.

[@Hashtag_Not_All_Hippies]

I've been voting for this ever since the option came up. I told you. I told you. I TOLD YOU. lmao

[@danivansuperstar]

A masterclass in a cappella. I'm always impressed with how long Tim holds out that one note close to the end. Geez Louise, like you say! Chills every time I hear this. Hair standing on end, literally. Thanks for reacting!

[@kellywilliams364]

We all wanted it to be longer!!!

[@ronaldsinagra8825]

As great as these guys are, you know it's going to be epic when Adam Rupp sings instead of beat boxes.

[@miamidolphinsfan]

A favorite of mine, this was another of Chance's brilliant ideas, and he was the director as well. Chance is an awesome artist

[@csutton161]

One of my favorites by HF, which is hard since they are all my favorites. I wonder how many times Rob and Chance had to sing to blend their harmonies to sound as ONE voice...think of singing perfectly together, stopping and starting at the same time, same breath. Im no music teacher or vocalist, but I realize their perfection and then when Austin comes in with the High Harmony and then Tim wraps it up with that bass. WOW. This is truly a masterpiece and everytime you listen to it, you hear something new. Great reaction, new sub here. Since Im new here, I hope you do "brothers in Arms" Beautiful music is a healer

[@GrandmasGotGraceLW]

Agreed when it was released, and still do. Thank you! 😀

[@patriciavernon9795]

Home Free has the best 5 part harmonies, case closed! 😀❤️

[@dontwitty1656]

it's rare that the beatboxer sings

[@minneyruth]

❤❤

[@davidpost428]

Excelence.

[@scotty2307]

I think that you have the right word, Stunning!. Perfection found within simplicity.

[@richarddaugherty8583]

They're actually forming chords, and beautiful chords at that! I think there are also some additional harmonics going on so that it sounds more than 5 part harmony. The original song is good, I like it. This one is just stunning!

[@caitlinseaton7546]

This is beyond singing, it’s just pure ART! Still one of my favorite Home Free songs 😊

[@karenlincoln4057]

Adam sings in How Great Thou Art and Brothers in Arms. If you haven’t listened to these you need to. Adam has a great voice too!

[@randy129]

Been waiting on you to do this One

[@mrsmissy2669]

Flawless!

[@dianeritthaler7792]

Their harmonies are AMAZING 👏 ❤🎉

[@marshac7738]

AMAZING UNISON!! An exquisite 5-part harmony masterpiece!!! Besides the unbelievable harmonies, getting to hear Adam Rupp's sweet tenor actually singing is such a great treat ❣️🎼🥰🎶❤️

[@trialbyfirepyrography321]

I've seen it described as pure harmony ear porn! I am likely to agree!

[@ppresley9208]

Simply the best !!!

[@barbarakennedy2667]

This rendition is like a religious experience.
