Music done right is supposed to evoke an emotional response, and Home Free does that every time. In my opinion, the song they do with the absolute best harmonies is their rendition of How Great Thou Art which was shot in Austria. Thank you for sharing your reaction!!

Your reaction was very moving, as was the story about the singing of this song at your family gatherings. The song has that special place in our family folklore, too. My father passed my mother a note during the singing of this song at a midnight Christmas Eve service, asking her to marry him -- after knowing her only four days. Hope you'll do Home Free's Do You Hear What I Hear. It's amazing.

The harmonies are amazing, the crescendos and diminuendos, the glorious setting. And for many, this was their first exposure to HF - what a way to start, right? Watching the live video from Greeneville from the other night, Tim has tweaked it yet again to take advantage of having Chance to help fill out the bass - the bass in this video was Tim layered in with Chris handling the baritone parts. Austin's voice has matured, it isn't that sweet angelic sound, but a lovely high tenor. And having all 5 of them sing is always a treat. "Home Free - O Holy Night - Greeneville, TN - 12/2/2023"

A truly inspirational performance. Their harmonies building to crescendos and falling back and then building again filling the whole of the space with their voices both lifts the spirit in adoration and worship and humbles at the same time. They many times start out simple and then build adding layer upon layer of harmonies and complexities until they sound like a large choir. Love your reactions. Off the subject a little bit but I like the painting on the wall behind you. The colors caught my attention. Since you mentioned opera, Austin and Rob put out a video, Two Country Singers Try Singing Opera, Nessun Dorma. Sometime soon you will have to check that out as well. I'll be watching for that.
