    Tim created this arrangement while he was in high school for an a cappella group he was in. Every time I hear it, I'm amazed at what a talented person he must have been even as a teenager.

    If you'd like to hear their voices without multi tracks or editing, watch their performances on the television contest "Sing Off", which is from 2013 and was only a few months after Austin joined them. I think there were six songs total, they're all available on KZread.

    This is so gorgeous. I think the bass you hear when Tim is singing the lead is a doubletracking. Both he and Chris have said in interviews that while Chris would do the underlying bass when they sang live, for studio recordings they would doubletrack Tim. I am enjoying the way you explain what's happening to make the music sound like it does. Very interesting. Thanks!

    Yes, Chris Rupp has a You Tube channel where he has reviewed some of the songs he performed with Home Free. I heard him say there that in recordings, they would have Tim sing the bass in another "layer" because he sounds so much more "bass-y". But, live...Chris would sing it. You saw him sing bass on the Sing Off "Ring of Fire" while Tim was singing the melody...but when Austin took over the lead, Tim switched with Chris and went back to singing the bass line and it was so much stronger than when Chris was doing it. I believe you even commented on Tim's strong bass when he covered that under Austin's lead there. Anyway...all that to say, I agree and I also heard Chris Rupp say that.😊

    The arrangement was done by teenaged Tim. At that time when Tim sang lead Chris covered the bass, but only live, in the studio Tim just did both layers. When Chris left and they got Chance as their baritone, Chance and Tim actually switch on occasion, Chance is also naturally a bass, just not as extreme as Tim. It gives them a lot more flexibilty compared to with Chris as a natural bari-tenor covering for bass

    I just re-watched it, and it appears that in most of it, Chance is carrying the bass and Tim is adding an extra harmony voice - essentially he is 'being Chris' and Chance is 'being Tim'. The quality of the video is such that it is hard to tell if it is Tim or Adam that is hitting the B under Austin's E, but it is definitely one of them.

    You are going to entirely spoil me for a lot of other reactions! Thank you very much! 😀 After the Christmas season is over (which doesn't seem like that even should already be that close...sigh), I'm thinking you might want to add another song to your already-growing list, Tim Foust and Peter Hollens, singing Misty Mountains...oh...my...word. Another great Tim duet is with Chris, from AFTER Christ went out on his own. They sing Alabama's song "Angels Among Us." Home Free had done it as a group before, but the mix of JUST Chris and Tim is absolutely stunning. Their voices blend particularly well. As I was watching that video for the first time (a long time back, now), it dawned on me that part of their wonderful blend may well be because they have similar muscular features in their upper bodies, up to the shapes of their faces and the way they use their mouths. After I started seeing it, I got really fascinated by it. Then there's a place in the song where they begin walking along and singing together, and the similarities are quite enhanced. It's pretty cool. They also have done another song together: "Long Black Train," which is one of my ALL-TIME favorites (originally written and sung by Josh Turner (can you tell I like bass voices?). I still like Josh's own version the best, but Chris and Tim did a REALLY great job with it, as well.

    Home Free does a great rendition of DO YOU HEAR WHAT I HEAR? It's filmed in Minnesota in what they call an ice castle. They are definitely outside as you can see their breath. There are tunnels, if you will, that I would imagine are used for acoustics. Tim Foust's bass is ridiculous, yet again. Not surprised. Austin is impressive as well. They all are. I'm a huge PTX fan, but Home Free is a really close second. It's kind of hard to compare because of different styles and such. David Phelps does this song as well and was my favorite for so many years from his Album Joy Joy, but something about Home Free and this song just grabbed me. I know I enjoyed it just as much if not more. I don't know if it's the voices or the video or a combination of both, but I enjoyed it so much.. At the end of the video they speak and give Adam the credit for the arrangement. O Holy Night is my favorite Christmas song and Do You Hear What I Hear is my second favorite. Home Free did an excellent job with it for certain.

    Yes, you're right. I don't believe it was ever actually meant to be "Angels' voices" - I've only ever known it as "angel voices" 🎶 If you look up the lyrics, you'll probably struggle to find versions that contain the 's' at the end of "angel". Thanks for the comment!

    Chris covers low notes when Tim is singing unless it's a super deep note. Chance in the newer songs does all bass when Tim sings because Chance is also a baritone/bass. Chance took Chris is place when Chris left the group. So no over laying tracks when Chance and Tim are together. Adam is the highest in this arrangement. Adam hates singing because his voice is so high. He has a beautiful voice.

    I’ve seen other reaction channels react to Christmas songs throughout the year and the vibe in the comment sections has always been that people are pretty “chill”😉 with it. PTX fans are especially understanding about this because otherwise they just wouldn’t hear reactions to many of the Christmas songs that Pentatonix does. There’s just no way possible to cram it all into that tiny window just before Christmas. If you feel like you need a reason or excuse, you could plan a “Christmas in July” feature. That’s a real thing. I’ve seen it in advertising etc. Just an idea.

    Tim says they "found" Austin when they were doing a special request show on board a cruise ship. Austin was part of a theater troupe doing 2 shows a day 6 days a week doing Les Miseralbe. They could hear him up on the main deck. They offered him one show a week and he quit the theater show on the spot and joined Home Free. You should hear him belt out "Let Him Go" from that show. It's on-line somewhere. You'll be glad if you look it up.
