PLEASE Listen to Home Free : When a Man Loves a Woman, Austin gets the lead (the guy that you said has the best vocals). He sings in front of his woman (off camera) and you can tell his entire heart is in the song. It's AMAZING

I'll second this. This is the best cover of this song I've heard. It beats the original and is head and shoulders over the Michael Bolton cover. It is spectacular.

@@kellywilliams364 it does not take that many songs to understand homefree as a group. I never understand why people say that. Yes Mayday should never be the first song you listen to but once you hear the group a couple times you get the idea of what each person's role is. He has done a couple songs from home free already so if he wanted to do Mayday then I belive he would be ready for it.

@@jasonosterhoudt2745 it also depends a little on which songs they react to in the beginning. I agree that in his case the 5 songs may be enough as these songs showcased better which each member of the group is able to do. But that is not the case most of the times, that is why we came up with the 10 or so songs before reacting to Mayday. Suppose a reactor has these 5 songs as reaction in the beginning: American Pie, I Swear, On The Road Again, Diamond Dreams, Moonshine (just as example) - I don't think it would work then..

This was a pretty cool cover!! If you've never heard the original by Johnny Cash, you should check it out!

" I shot a man in Reno, just to watch him die".......some of the darkest lyrics in any song.

Have you gotten to Home Frees "In the Blood"? You will enjoy it. If you want to view a showcase of Austin Brown (the guy in the center) check out "When a man loves a woman". Thanks for covering this one.

Home Free has such a wealth and depth of talent, they always amaze me.

Tim doesn't just sing base, he wakes up there, and lives there. The man's a human subwoofer.

Ha Ha! I had the same reaction to how tall each person was on the video. I am a patron of Home Free so I emailed them to find out how tall they actually are. Tim (Bass to Tenor), Chace (Bass to Tenor), Adam (Beat Box and Bass to tenor) and Austin (high tenor) are all 6'2" tall. Rob (Baritone to high tenor) is 6'3".

I actually fell in love with HomeFree through reactions videos. Thanks for giving me more. You might enjoy their version of “Moonshine” or “My Church”. The vocal talent and arrangements are worthy. Hope you are enjoying your journey...

This was done during the Covid quarantine period and there are a series of them from Home Free that you might enjoy: "Quarantine", "Down to the Honkytonk (which has lots of bass), "Sunday Best" and "Meet in the Middle". There is also "I Still Haven't Found What I'm Looking For" with Peter Hollens.

Nice reaction I do not have a favorite because when they git together it take all of them to make it sound just right. They pick the lead based on who fits the song not on who sings better it always works for them an us my favorite is Helplessly Hoping the only problem is it is to short but it is a master class in harmony

OMG ...Thank you so much for introducing them to me.Amqzing

Did you notice that last bass drop note! Tim with smile! Yeah, he knows we love it and he loves doing it! I love them!♥️🍟

Their baritone is insanely talented one of the cleanest since maybe ever even the old doo wop groups would kill for this dude lol

Definitely check out their “Country Fried Pop Medley “ ! It’s lots of fun!

First time that I ever heard them was a video on KZread, it was " my church " blew me away. And second is "How great thou art " it was so beautiful that I cried. Please give it a listen.

You want Bass? Geoff Castellucci from Voiceplay with either Blackbird, 16 tons or Take me Home Country Roads and your sub-woofers will be whimpering and the next one form Home Free, possibly either Ring of Fire on The Sing Off with AVi from Pentatonix or their cover of Man of Constant Sorrows

Sorry, Geoff is good but Tim is so much better. He is so pure hitting his notes. He's busted subwoofers at his concerts. Voice play is excellent but they're more dramatic. Tim, then Geoff and Avi.

Like nearly everything they cover, Home Free did a remarkable job with this. They took some fun liberties with it too, as Cash himself often did on covers he performed. And, let’s face it, all of them are putting their own twist on Shel Silverstein’s original poem. I really enjoy your channel, Mr. Boyd. It’s a calm and thoughtful place. An interesting refuge in our times, from our times. It also validates much of my youth as I knew many of these songs were legendary after hearing them once or twice, as you are apt to do. I have not seen you ‘phone one in’ yet and I expect I won’t. Thank you.

Someone beat me to it but Tim Foust in Mayday was outstanding!

I've seen Home Free in concert twice now(and watched a few interviews) and while many people wouldn't believe it, in the beginning of his first lead here, Tim Foust(aka the bassy bass) is actually singing at a octave slightly ABOVE his normal speaking voice. The result of him being such a naturally deep bass is very clear vocals right down to the edge of the sub-sonic range.

You need to do American Pie with Don McLean by them. Or Go rest high on that mountain

It's hard to be better than the original,but they nail it!! Johnny would love this rendition!!!

Home Free has an extensive catalog and in almost every genre of music you can think of (I keep waiting for them to do Mozart or Verdi--sadly, they haven't yet, but I know they'd kill it). You can hear very serious to very fun. How Great Thou Art is spectacular and was shot in the Austrian Alps. The vocals and the scenery are both "out of this world". On the fun side, their Sea Shanty Medley rocks, as does "Never Gonna Give You Up". As an older person, I just enjoy "Never Gonna Give You Up" and their homage to the 1980's, although to fully enjoy this song, I recommend you watch the original music video by Rick Astley. You REALLY enjoy Home Free's cover then. Home Free fans call themselves "Home Fries" and I admit to being a Home Fry that doesn't even like country music (but Home Free makes it so good I can't help but love it).

WORKIN FOR A LIVIN BY HOME FREE, LOTS OF FUN

Enjoyed this reaction. One of my favs is "In the Blood." Try it. You'll like it.

Gotta love some Johnny Cash and this cover is absolutely amazing... I'm an Home Fry

Greatest cover band ever ❤

No, they're playing with you, they change the height graphs quite a few times during this vid, sometimes Austin, the key tenor is 6'4 then he's 5'8 and the tenor you notice is Tim and you hear him quite a bit in their cover of End of the Road by Boyz 2 Men

if you like Austin's vocals you need to check out "When a Man Loves a Women" he really shows off the vocals!

As much as I like these guys this is a Johnny song, no one can beat it.

Love Home Free. Still loving Chris Rupp, too! They're all first class guys.

This son was first recorded by Johnny Cash. ALL the sounds performed by Home Free were reminiscencent of trains, from the wail of Austin to the clack-clack of the beat-boxer Adam, to the inharmonic harmony of the train whistle/horn. Listen to the song again and concentrate on the TRAIN SOUNDS that they all produce. AMAZING!!

Thanks for keeping a great mix of music on your reactions!

Thanks for sharing your time with all of us!! Appreciate ya MrLBoyd!!

Left is Tim Foust bass (bottomless voice), next is Rob Lundquist tenor (and not 6'8" LOL), Austin Brown is next and he's the high tenor, Adam Chance (called Chance) sings baritone/bass and is taller than 5'2", Adam Rupp is the beat boxer (rumor is at age 4 he swallowed a drum kit LOL)

Home Free does it again! More Home Free please!

Loved your picking out the high tenor (Austin) and tenor harmonies (Rob) as your favorites. They lead in so many HF songs. Then you work down the scale to Chance (Baritone/Base) and Tim (base - most of the time, though he has a 5 Octave range and can sing quite beautifully as a a tenor). And of course the beat boxer Adam. What makes them so appealing is their ability to harmonize: try out their cover of Helplessly Hoping by Crosby, Stills and Nash.

DON’T DO MAYDAY UNTIL YOU KNOW THE GROUP!!!!

Happy Memorial Day, thank you for this, wonderful as always and I agree on your two picks for singers. Enjoy your day. 😀😀❤️❤️

Glad to see Chancey get a chance to lead.

🤣 Yeah, Tim is 6’8” like Chance is shorter than me!!! And poor Rob!!!!! Tim better watch out cause Austin’s still a kid and he’s gaining on him!!! 🤣. These guys ALWAYS throw some humor in somewhere! 😊

This is an awesome cover of Johnny Cash's song. Love it!

Do not pay any attention to the height marker. Chance is not five feet even and Austin is not 6 feet eight. I imagine if they payed any attention to how high they tacked that marker sheet then they likely did it wrong on purpose.

recommend Home Free singing Elvira featuring The Oak Ridge Boys. Also Home Free sings American Pie featuring Original singer (can't think of his Name) third Home Free singing "Crazy"

Nice reaction... now if I could just send you my favorite books to read aloud... lol. I love listening to your voice.

Should definitely react to Home Free- Ring of Fire with Avi Kaplan. Avi is/was the baritone for Pentatonix. War of the low notes. IT's so good.

That’s my hometown!

Not that light-hearted, when you listen to the way that "Reno!" is delivered to point up the killing for killing's sake.

Next up should be "When a man loves a woman" for Austin's amazing vocals !!! But as for an original song and not just a cover, do try DIVE BAR SAINTS...very catchy tune that was written directly for them by their friend, Arliss Allbritton a Grammy nominated Nashville songwriter.

You should react to Tim Foust singing (Bass singer) Will You Still Love Me Tomorrow, you will see his ranges, IMPRESSIVE!!!!!.

Great cover.

Helplessly Hoping, you have got to do that one.

If you haven't yet, you should check their rendition of Man of Constant Sorrow.

You should really check out their goofy side, watch the Butts Remix. Also, as you are well aware, they have a very serious side as well, and Helplessly Hoping is absolutely amazing 5 part harmony - simply breathtaking. Would LOVE to see you react to those and Mayday as well!

Discovered your channel yesterday and have subscribed. Really enjoy it. Love to hear your thoughts on Randy Travis, something like 1982 or Forever and Ever Amen.

Dani and Lizzy Dancin in the sky

An amusing 1 is from many yrs ago, 9 to 5, Dolly Parton's tune

Suggestion: Listen to Home Free sing "Elvira" with The Oak Ridge Boys. Awesome!

Tim is the bomb!! Together their explosive!

You should definitely listen to home free cover End of the Road!!!

**PRISON SENTENCES** Tim: *shot a man in Reno* Chance: *drove the getaway car* Rob: *harboring a fugitive* Adam: *lying under oath* Austin: *flirting with the lady judge* 🤣 😅😂🤣😅

I love this. Don’t pay attention to the height charts. They’re all wrong. The guys are all over 6’ though. We think Tim (the bass) did the crime. Adam, the beatboxer, should be in an insane asylum and the rest are accomplices. Hahaha. Austin in the middle is the high tenor, Rob, beard and glasses is the tenor. Chance is a baritone/bass. They’re all so good. Glad you enjoyed it. I love their version of the song. Good reaction!

Everytime I hear this can't help but to hear it in Johnny Cash's voice. Noone can match that original. Cash is loved by so many 🧡🧡🧡

Pretty great. 💜

High tenor is Austin Brown, 2nd tenor, Rob Lundquist; Bass Tim Foust; Baritone/alternate bass, Adam Chance and Beatboxer Adam Rupp. Gotta learn the names sometime. Love your thoughtful reactions.

More Home Free Please

The bass holds TWO Worlds Records 1 for lowest note able to consistently sing and range he has a 19 ovtica range

I love how they made this theirs

Home Free End of the Road!

damn 120k subs? youre growing fast

Thank you so much for this reaction. You might want to check out Home Free doing....Hillbilly Bone...Blue Ain't Your Color...In The Blood...Country Fried Pop Medley...and...All About That Bass. Just for starters, unless you find something else from other Home Fries. Thanks again.

Home Free - Elvira (feat. The Oak Ridge Boys)

I liked the content ,but I like you. Nothing but respect!

They are all right at or above 6'2" tall. Those were just for Effect. They each filmed their parts separately then their producer put it all together and wallah

When a man loves a woman should be your next one. It is so good.

You should look up when Tim brakes the speakers as he has such a low range.

The height chart was tampered with.

Best ever no instruments

They are actually all 6'1 to 6'4, they had to put up their own backgrounds and they have a sense of humor, they were singing from their closets during "the times" and were separated in their homes, but still making the great music.

They’re all tall...but, they have a goofy side , & love to have fun 🙃‼️🙃
