First time I heard this I wasn't prepared for how emotional it would make me. It's an amazing song. I can see you felt it too.

I love Home Free's version of this beautiful song. They really brought out the emotion of it. Tim's lead is amazing with his deep bass. Also love Rob & Chance's solos plus the great harmonies. And Adam is tasteful in making the simple sound of pounding his chest & thigh. I believe we can change our course in life. We don't have to make the same mistakes as our parents. We can choose to rise above it.

I was talking with my adult daughter yesterday about something we had both experienced recently and, during that conversation, I made a statement about making a conscious decision to remove parts of how I was raised because they did so much harm to me. And, she both acknowledged that I had been successful and reiterated that she was aware that she would not make a good parent hence her decision to never have children. So, yes, you can make changes to ‘break the cycle’.

The original performed by John is wonderful... Home Free taking it into a hymnal feel takes it to a deeper level.

After I heard this one for the first time, it had to stay on repeat for a while. As I’ve grown older, it has become more apparent that almost everyone is screwed up in one way or the other.

Speak for yourself, everyone I know in this mental ward are sane rational and angelic beings dressed in white robes.

I grew up with a mother that had severe mental illness. This song speaks to me in so many ways. It is my favorite Home Free song because it is beautifully done and it speaks so directly to me.

Every time I hear Home Free sing this beautiful song, it breaks me…. especially the words in the chorus. Tim and Rob and Chance are perfection in this one. You can tell the song touches them. The resonance in Tim’s voice takes my breath away sometimes. He sounds so bittersweet.🐝❤️🤗

I cry every time I listen to this song. I grew up with a mother who had mental problems. I spent most of my life wondering if I was destined to be like her. I’m happy to say I did not do what she did.

Powerful, powerful song. I agree with you -- on some songs, they just transcend their normal excellence and become something that strikes the heart like a bolt of lightning.

SD - I've heard this version at least 100 times and it ALWAYS takes me to a different set of FEELS - I can't explain it but...70+ years of life's ups, downs, in's and outs come cascading down on my soul... I get what you're feeling my friend.... I appreciate and understand your reaction brother!!! RichieC (Atlanta GA)

This one touches parts of the heart we were not even aware of being raw and vulnerable.

I love when the reactor is so visibly touch. It is an awesome song for sure.

SauceyDad, I love your HONEST reactions to Home Free’s videos. It shows how humble you are. I am so happy I found your channel.

Isn't this just stunning? I've been a harmony fan forever and that's what got me started on this acapella roller coaster. Out of all the pieces HF has done this is still my favorite. Deep thoughts as well as outstanding voices. I'm glad you finally found a place for it. If you ever hear from Tim you tell him I'll cook him some fried chicken and grits if he'll sing like this to me! As for the message, yes some baggage you can drop on the platform and take another train. You don't have to live the way you were brought up, or continue behaving as you always have. But it doesn't take much to bring back the feelings and reactions you thought you left behind. It's always a job to be the person you want to be.

I started to watch this at work today, then I could tell the water works would start if I continued. So had to wait until just now, when I could finally be alone, This was beautiful, very needed and hopefully will help me begin to deal with my own parental issues and feelings of inadequacy that I fight on a daily basis. Thank you to whoever requested this song and to you for doing it Nick!

Hey Saucey dad, I have the same reaction with this song as you do. Tears start rolling as soon as Tim starts singing. I think it is one of their most emotional songs. At least for me. I love your reaction, shows me I am not alone

This song always drains me emotionally

Ok, you gave me tears Nick. I don't know what else to say.

I LOVE This Song !!!!!! Thank You Nick !!!!!!! This is Everything I think and face everyday, I had a very dysfunctional childhood I'm always asking myself How much of my Mom and Dad is just "In" me can I change it? How hard is too hard? I don't always get it right But I am doing Better. This Song reminds me to keep at it and I bawled like a baby the first time I heard it, not kidding I Sobbed meself into a Migraine. It near breaks my heart every time and I Love it!

We've all been there Nick....I see myself doing a lot of the things my parents did, and not sure if I can control it....I see my Dad is my actions all the time...and my Dad and I were not really close - he loved me and I could always count on him if needed, but we just never connected as people....he connected more with my wife than with me, he always brought her presents and if he bought my mom flowers or a cake or anything he always did the same for her, and he might even not say hello to me unless I said it 1st....he didn't hug me but a few times in my life, and his constant putdowns hurt me a lot inside even though I would laugh with everyone else on the outside, It's very hard to admit, that when he passed away, I didn't even shed a tear....I did get a moment the day before he passed to clear the air and even though he couldn't talk I told him I didn't understand why he hated me, but that all the hurt he caused was forgiven. And I kissed him on his cheek....he looked at me and he was a bit shocked and he understood I think finally that his actions had hurt me for many, many years but in the end I still loved him.. He passed on Oct 21st, 1999 at Baptist Hospital here in Miami.

I kinda had the same with my dad. I know I'm super late, but here's a hug. My dad died holding my hand when I was 24. He couldn't talk his last couple days either. He believed I was brain washed, entitled good for nothing and had many things to say about my clothes. He always spent time with my sister and brother and I had to beg for him to spend time with me on my 18th bday. It's all I wanted. I was a daddy's girl and my daddy told me to my face he never wanted kids. I told him I forgive him and sang to him as he passed. Then I had to go back to being a rock because everyone else feel apart. Here's another hug for the road. You are loved. It'll wash out.😔

I think everyone can relate to at least some part of this beautiful song 🎵. I've probably heard this at least 50 times and I still tear up over at least some part of these lyrics. HomeFree did such a fantastic and beautiful cover of this song . The harmonies were so crisp and precise. I love that about them. You can always hear every word with such clarity. Your reaction is always so wonderful as usual 💕. 😥

One of my favorites by Home Free.

This is one of Home Free's most impactful songs. It hit me hard too! And I've listened to it well over 100 times. And it still opens my mind to the questions asked within the lyrics. How much do we inherit from our family? What kind of person am I and am I ok with it? And if I'm not ok with it, how much can I control in changing the things I don't like? And that's not even touching on how beautifully the guys sang the song. Another case of less is more. No complicated backdrops, no super high or low notes, very basic beatboxing from Adam. Just an eye opening feeling that makes a person question who we are and why we are that way. ❤

Yep, one of my favorites. Those lyrics coupled with Home Free’s voices kills me. Such a good song. And just chest slaps and leg slaps for effect. Sigh. Pretty Darn Good Saucy Man. Yeah you had wet noodle looks all the way and that’s how I felt too. 🥰

As an adoptee this song holds even more meaning for me. Home Free is just one of those groups that will always hit you right in the feels. Sometimes they hit your funny bone and other times your soul.

This was a great example of using Chance to cover bass while Tim sings. Amazing song and great reaction - it is one that leaves you breathless on a good day, let alone the feels on an off day.

Having married into a family with mental health issues this song resonates so strongly with me. John Mayer's words are so powerful and true, and Homefree captures the feeling so beautifully. Thank you for your reaction.

You finaly did this one. First time i heard this one.....don't ask

I love their version of this song. Always loved the song. 😎

Their version of this song is like a mental/emotional katana that gets you when you least expect it.

I doubt there are many people who would not relate to this in some way or another. I saw that it affected you deeply, and I can relate. This song was well written by John, and performed with perfection by Home Free. John’s version pops up on a Daily Mix on Spotify for me and it always gets me, but Home Free’s cover seems to affect me more, for some reason.

This song is literally written about my family. That first verse describes my brothers and myself in order!! The first time I heard it, I lost it. Everytime since......it just hits deeply. Keep on keeping on. Love your sincerity in your reactions! Thank you!

This has been a favorite song of theirs for a very long time. I think it's what got me hooked on Home Free. I NEVER get tired of listening to this. SUCH a great version of this song.

This was the 1st song I'd ever heard by them. I was walking through a room and heard it and I was just floored. I had to find out who was singing this song that just spoke to my soul. I went down that rabbit hole to never emerge. I love this group!

Yep, always makes my glasses foggy. Take care Nick❤❤❤

Powerful message. As I said, there's nothing wrong with tears for the right reasons.

I didn't mean to bring you to tears, Nick..but I'm so glad you reacted to it, and I thank you so much..I criy every time I hear them sing this..it strikes a chord with me and in me too..you have such a beautiful soul 💖💖

This is in my top 3 favorite Home Free songs (and that's saying something!). And I know they didn't write it, but the lyrics hit a bit different when I found out Tim is adopted.

This song is very emotional for me. I discovered it when I was going through a very rough period. Some very dysfunctional thoughts stemming from a very dysfunctional childhood and a pretty tough life. I had often wondered if I was destined to be like my parents, or ifI could wash it all out and do better. I’m still working on it.

This is in my top 5 go to Home Free songs/video. This is my sweet spot for listening to Tim. His perfect range.

I had the same reaction the first 1000 times I saw this. Yeah, it really does hit all the buttons doesn't it? I'm so happy for you that you're doing well enough to go full time! What would the you from a year ago have said if you could have gotten a vision of the channel (set, content, etc.) that you've morphed into? Everything has changed so much, but I'm loving it! Love from Texas! ❤💜💙

Fantastic song, one of my absolute favourites by them. So meaningful for so many people! Can I suggest you listen to 'Winter Song' I don't think you've reacted to it yet? It's a grower, the more you listen the more you get out of it imo. I listened to the original as well & both are wonderful but HF has the edge(of course). You might want to wait till a colder season - there is snow!, but don't miss out, doesn't get enough airtime on here.

Winter Song, please.

Nick, this one almost brings me to tears, also, almost every time. Thanks!

It's a beautiful song and it's one of my favorite Home Free songs. Thanks for that. Another song to think about is One Voice. You should definitely hear that too.

It's definitely one of those that punches you in the feels. 💜

This song hits home for one of my adopted sons. I pray for all who struggle with that. Whatever you are going thru, I pray it gets better.❤️

The first verse hits differently since losing my Mum 3 weeks ago 😔💔 For whatever reason it hit you, know that you are not alone ❤️

Love Home Free's fabulous 5-part harmony❣️🎼🥰🎶❤️

This such an awesome song. It is obvious by your reaction it touched you deep down inside. Love your reaction!

I listened to this one a lot last August/September when I was in a rehab facility for my broken ankle. I had just sent a message to all my cousins, some of them leaving nearby, that I felt down and lonely. I got lots of "get well soon" replies. But out of sixteen cousins, only one came to visit. One. I can still cry when I think about. So for me, no, it's definitely not in the blood. My dad, sister and now two cousins (who has since apologized) are all the blood relatives I need.

Everything thing Home Free does is amazing ❤

Beautiful song, amazing reaction!! Being honest with your feelings, from both the song and the delivery, does you monstrous credit. Thank you for including us in your Fam

You know, I have watched so many, many reactors do this incredible song and most of the men especially it hits hard. I know so many of us, women too, grow up in families that this really touches something deep inside. My son I remember was so worried about becoming like his father or grandfather who were not faithful at all. He thought he could be like them. I told him it was a choice they made, he did not inherit that. And he has been faithful in his marriage for 20 years. But so many of us didn't have good parenting or other family dynamics. This song really makes us think about that. Does another broken home become another broken family? Wow! It's not what any of us want. The guys really killed this song and did it their way which was perfect!!! You take care friend.

My favourite Home Free song. More of Tommy Johansson, please. He is amazing. Eagle fly free or The Light (an original)

Your spirit animal is lead in , Catch me if you can. Great original

The only thing I miss from when you didn't do live reactions is the HILARIOUS intros, like 'beatboxing' to Jeff the clown or talking to a stuffed unicorn :P

this is hands down my favorite cover that Home Free has done! it's so beautiful and calming

I cry every time I hear it.

It did it to me the first, second and third time, too, Nick.

Home Free does this every time.

This has such powerful lyrics. They guys do it justice. I enjoy your reactions so much

Great reaction. Hang in there,guy,it came to pass, not to stay

I was just randomly searching the music of Home Free when I found the rabbit hole that led to your channel. I always enjoy your genuine reactions but this is the first time I have ever commented or shared. I am so glad the rabbit hole led to the Saucey Fam.

This video is proof that simple can still be mind blowing.

Emotional stuff, especially when you're already dealing with stuff. Praying for ya!

This is one of my favorite Home Free songs.. Thanks for reacting to it..

I also listened to it with my eyes shut and this is a whole new experience for me

Thank you for this… hit home for me..😊

💙💙🍟

This is one of my favorites. I’m really sorry you couldn’t make the PA bashes. I was hoping to meet you and Saucey Mom, because you’re one of my favorite reactors. Another time, perhaps.

Every time I watch one of your reactions, you make me feel like we would be friends for sure. You have a great sense of humor, and you're real! This one is heavy! It definitely slapped me in the face! Keep on keepin on Saucey Dad! Much love from Oregon.

Right there with you,Nick.

My lifes anthem. I love this song.

I'm six foot tall but this song is so deep I sank beneath the words. Someone help me come back up for air.

Touching reaction. I hope and pray you get through whatever you are going through. We love you. ❤

Great reaction! So glad you can be moved by a great song@

SauceyDad has a lot of heart… and I love it.

Love this song! It hits home for me too.

Thank you for your reaction!

This is a very deep song and Homefree killed it. Better then the original and they make you feel it.

Such class and dedication to every song

I am sure you got your tickets for the show in Westbrook in Aug, i got mine, prehaps i will get to say hello to you, i am so excited to see them again

I've always felt more of the musicality in this version than the emotion, but it IS a seriously emotional song if you pay attention to the lyrics. (That's not to say they don't have the emotion, they definitely do, I'm just a music nerd so first and foremost for me is the performance).

You have got to react to Home Free doing their in dish of Folsom prison blues!!!!!!

Just WOW

Thanks

Thank you ^_^

Family first. Dont worry about us.

Love ya SaucyDad! 🤗❤️❤️ Love this song!❤️

Love this song - very emotional - are you ok?❤️

We Home Fries get it...HF makes it & all songs.... better ;)...liked, shared, subbed and.....DING!

Saucey...you da bomb brother!

They have a few songs that do this to me.

Nurture vs. Nature

Sauced Dad, I’m sorry this hits you in an emotional place. I think it’s actually cleansing to do this from time to time.

Please please please react to I swear and love train... You would fall in love with them all over

Jon Mayer
