Austin did a fabulous job of this classic song. Loved Percy Sledge's version, but this was taken to another level. I think it is also better than Michael Bolton's version. And remember this was done during quarantine, so the guys weren't even together. The backing harmonies are great, along with Tim's bass. And Adam's vocal percussion is outstanding. This is why these guys are my favorite a cappella group.

I love reactions to this song! Its always fun to watch people lose their minds when Austin really belts it out. Backstory to this video: Austin's girlfriend, Amberly, was in the studio when he recorded this video, so he was singing this song for her. But I think Austin might be a natural flirt, so he really knows how to play to the camera.

Omg, your panicked face (specifically how wide your eyes got) at 17:37 when you registered that you had paused just as Austin went up to that B5, after already holding the first high note, was absolutely amazing :) great reaction, and I loved the details regarding the D5 and the different clefs. I was in concert band from 5th grade through high school graduation, and during high school was also in the Jazz band my last two years of high school and I honestly didn’t know about the Tenor Clef, or the Octave Treble Clef so that was fascinating to hear about (and read :) thank you Mason!!).

@@anastasiawolfeheart468 hopefully this doesn’t come across as argumentative, because I only mean this as an educational statement as this subject seems to be typically misunderstood. So I mean no animosity by any of what follows: while I have no doubt that Austin sang every note of that song confidently while seated for the video, Mortius did point out how nearly every music video in existence uses a different audio recording than the audio that would be present during the video recording. So yes, I’m sure Austin can and did hit each of those sitting down that day, I’m sure it was much easier for him to hit those notes with that power and volume while standing up in the recording booth. I never had any vocal training myself, but I’m a tenor voice of some sort or another (just after I’d graduated highschool, the voice teacher of my girlfriend at the time said with training I might have been a counter-tenor, but I’ve never been able to hit Austin’s highways notes so don’t really trust that statement) and while sitting in my car driving to work I can match a lot of Austin’s parts. Yesterday I listened to Mortius’ reaction of Austin’s Bring Him Home, and I even pitch matched his final note in that song, but I’ve never been able to hit his A5 from Land of the Free. So singing high notes sitting down is indeed possible, but it’s definitely a lot more difficult.

Whoever doesn't watch your entire intro is simply not fun enough 🤣 Loved every moment of this reaction, as erratic and somewhat chaotic as it was it was also super authentic and that's worth everything. Thanks, Mortius! 🥰🙏🤣

Awww, Mortius our a capella mentor reactioner geeking out once again! I love you so much! Love your genuinity and transparency! Austin does have a " special " way with the camera. It's natural with him! Part of the authentic Southern Gentleman ( South Georgia) Swag and Charm! We call him our Sunshine a lot of the time! He is full of light, warmth, positivity and love. It just oozes out of his heart uncontrollably and everyone responds like a sponge! He is so humble, caring, kind-hearted and truly a wonderful gentleman and human! Love this performance/video, probably in my top 5 by Home Free! However, that top list is getting longer and longer! Sending love from South Georgia!♥️😃🍟🔥🔥🔥

Just heard Geoff's new song Ain't No Sunshine When She's Gone. His vocal register is in full action. Gave me goosebumps. Austin is hitting those notes sitting down which is freaking amazing too

Home Free has been such a great gift to all of us--especially their extra efforts in providing us with excellent music/videos throughout quarantine and the difficult days of isolation we've all dealt with these past couple of years. Their creativity in producing the "quarantine" videos--and their commitment to continuing to provide new entertainment throughout--has brought along many HF converts. Got to ❤️❤️❤️ Home Free!!

Yes, I watched ALL of the intro and 1. It made me smile😊😊😊 and 2. It made me crave a cherry limeade from Sonic which since I have given up sugary things for Lent I can’t have🥲🥲

Austin is incredible, such a wonderful voice - WOW. And the background music is phenomenal. Austin's girlfriend Amberly was in the studio filming this song and he was singing to her! Lucky gal! I highly suggest Austin and Tim's cover of My Maria by Brooks & Dunn. They killed it! Love your detailed reactions, thanks!

They own this song!!!!!!!

And that's how you sing that song ... way to go guys !!!!

My son has ADHD so I am used to listening to different tangents he goes off on in a conversation. You have not been that bad so no worries

I, too, survived your whole hilarious intro. Your intros are getting longer while your hair is getting shorter. Oh, well, your hair will grow back - thank heaven! 🤣 Re Austin's alluring looks into the camera, just imagine how hard it is for us hetero females to resist him! We don't even bother trying, we just let ourselves get sucked in to the vortex.

I always, always get a kick out of your reactions. You have an engaging personality that makes the viewing experience fun. And yes, Austin hits that B5 (and can go a bit higher as well). Really enjoy your videos Mortius. Looking forward to your next video post up.

I've never been diagnosed as ADHD but even though I can really focus to the exclusion of everything else, I also tend to leap frog from one subject to another because my brain has fast forwarded to another subject while I'm talking. I will also start talking and it sounds like I picked up in the middle of a conversation not realizing the first part of the thought was all in my head. 😂

I watched the intro, enjoyed it, and loved the snarky comments from the video editor. But then, I was diagnosed with ADHD in 1979, before it had initials. 😁 So I tend to be able to follow the thought processes of people with ADHD pretty easily...

Great reaction and yes I watched the full intro...never know for sure where you're going with it, but always fun. Who wants dull and predictable! I'm so glad you did this one...loved Percy Sledge when he came out with this, but OMG Austin killed it...and Adam's vocal percussion is just phenomenal. Looking forward to more Home Free.

Another great reaction, intro included! I always watch the whole video, especially the intro. It's fun to learn if what you are reacting to meets, beats, or falls flat of your expectations that you mention in the introduction. Also, ADHD or not, I personally enjoy how you bounce from subject to subject as it reminds me of talking with my sister. I became a Patreon member because you are you, you don't try to change to just get subscribers. I think at one time you even said something to the effect of "This is me and the way I am. If you don't like it, go away". You just stay the way you are and keep on being you with your honest reactions. Thank you for all the time and effort you, the Mrs., and your editor put into a wonderful experience.

Austin is a flirt. He also hit that B5 sitting down. I wonder what he can hit when he is standing up?

Austin can bend a note like no other!!!

I have a nephew who is sensitive to most artificial food coloring. Some colors make him hyper, some happy, some sad, some angry. a bag of m&Ms is emotional roulette.

Austin killed it. But it would never have sounded so perfect without the others. The beautiful harmonies, the bass and the incredible beatboxing/percussion. Of course, Austin plays really well with the camera here too, but that's because his girlfriend was there. 😉 Yes, another great cover of Home Free. But yeah, that's nothing new. 😜

Great fun reaction! And even more info on ADHD!! Have lived with it for 28 years with my grandson having ADHD. And once you live with/around it, you can spot it in someone within seconds! lol. He was super hyped by caffeine, the more the worse -- like Mountain Dew, the energy drinks like Red Bull, Monster, etc. Sent him flying! Funny thing tonight I saw Trivex Silver reacting with his lovely girlfriend and they said her ADHD was off the rails tonight. And you could tell. I'd never seen her moving all around and hyped up! Something going on in the atmosphere too maybe??! Red food coloring was super interesting! Thanks and keep these great reactions coming!

Voiceplay has a new cover out featuring Omar Cordona, Dream On an original by Aerosmith. I think you will really like it. There are some crazy high notes there too

Oh wow, such a fun reaction, thank you!!!! I had to watch the song several times just to get past Austin's flirty eyes and appreciate the guys killing it.

As amazed as you were for the notes Austin was doing that all was done sitting down!

Voiceplay’s The Dragonborn Comes and Halo being chief among those. Yay for Gaming song reactions :D) Also I’m so happy that you’ve reached your Patreon Milestone to do more reactions :) sadly I’m not one of them, as with being married and having 2 kids, finances are never what you want them to be, but I do my best to support you and other reactors in every other way I can, watching the full video beginning to end, liking, commenting, subscribing etc. best of luck to you :) now I have to rewind the video because I was too focused on all this nonsense that I didn’t actually retain any of the video that just played.

Lol - many great moments in this! Congrats on leveling up! Was really happy to see you react to this - one of my favorite reactions!

Adam's technique for the key change transition sounds like he is simply doing a rising tone while flutter-tonguing. Wind instrumentalists, such as Adam, learn to hold their tongue stiffly very near the ridge of the palate, while also blocking the air from any other means of passage (although this can be varied if needed) and use sufficient air to make the tongue flutter. The result is kind of like doing really fast tonguing (tuh-tuh-tuh), but too fast for double or triple tonguing (which are done with muscle control rather than using the inherent tension of the tensed tongue).

I must've played that part at least 15 times. Thank you for this PERFECT reaction, and the laughter!

This song was made for Austin.❤️

My first time watching and listening to you and I’m enjoying it very much!! I subscribed 😊

Austin can flirt with the camera so easily. He was in music theater in college. Plus, behind what I suspect is a natural flirtatious ability, his girlfriend, Amberly, was right there in the studio. I'm guessing that you weren't disappointed in the video despite the hype given to it! 😁
