    Oh my God, I fucking love this song. I love this country so much. I want to thank all of the servicemen, first responders, teachers, nurses, doctors. And really anybody that gives their heart and soul to this country in whatever way they do it. Everybody needs to keep on keeping on.

    I shed a tear or two every time I hear this song. My son is in the USAF and I am so proud of him and every other service man/woman…thank you for your service!

    Lee Greenwood said that this is the first time he has been able to sing this song the way he wanted because there was someone carrying the melody.
    You do realize this is all a capella, right?

Im so proud to be an American...i love our flag and cry whenever i hear patriotic songs! Thank you for reacting to this beautiful song, and a special thanks to all those who have served or are currently serving and a special prayer to those who lost loved ones in order to keep our country free!

    I'm a rocker but love a little bit of everything from 70's and early 80's pop, classic Motown, even a little bit of blue grass to classic country like this. Love Lee Greenwood, he has such soul and his songs have meaning.

    I LOVE this song and Home Free added to it. I admit I cry every time I hear this and LOVE your reaction. I saw Lee Greenwood do this song in the 80's, loved it then, love it even more now, especially what this song means. I love Ms Wolfhunterz makeup and hair by the way and beautiful smiles on both of you.

  • @babyfry4775

    Lee Greenwood sounds great for 75! This was during Covid so they couldn’t be all together. Loved this. So nice of the Singing Sergeants to join in this endeavor. Everyone sounded great. I especially loved Adam’s beatboxing. He even did a jet sound at the very end. Great reaction. If you love knights in a castle you might want to listen to Home Free singing Brother. It’s fairly new and it’s about warriors singing about brotherhood. The boys do it in costume and it’s hilarious and there is a knight involved. 😍😀

  • @cenewton3221
    @cenewton3221 ปีที่แล้ว +4

    The way to know if someone genuinely (Americans at least) love this is that they are singing along, knowing the words and smiling. This version gets everyone to smile somehow. And with all the players involved, remotely during Covid... acapella. Thank you everyone, but especially thank you Home Free & Lee Greenwood. Great reaction guys.

    It is worth your time to watch the "making of" of this video. Someone remarks that Lee was able to improvise during this taping for the first time while singing this song because of corporate decisions that required it be sung in a certain way. You can really feel his released passion and it is absolutely GORGOUS. This is an absolute MUST HAVE in ANY patriotic playlist.

  • @xScooterAZx
    @xScooterAZx 8 หลายเดือนก่อน

    Lee Greenwood released it in 1984. When he decided tp update it he asked both the The US Air Force Band and Home Free to join him. He's the first singer here.
    Oh and the castle in Nashville is his own home.

    They use to close every show with this song. Which was arranged by the founder of the group Chris Rupp. They did a video at Mount Rushmore also you may want to watch. Please listen for the fly over that Adam Rupp the beatboxer does. Truly enjoyed watching your reactions to this song.

  • @chrismorin1318
    @chrismorin1318 2 ปีที่แล้ว

    This is a song I sang in karaoke for years and I'm no great talent. But many times I'd have veterans or their families come up to me with tears in their eyes or full out crying to tell ME Thank You! And I'd usually end up in tears trying to let them know that it was I who owed THEM thanks. This version is soooo special. After decades of singing it the same way, Lee Greenwood was able to entrust his song to others and to put in all those special heartfelt adlibs that took this to another level. And although I get choked up every time I hear this song, when Adam starts that military snare cadence, I lose it. He does it in Traveling Soldier too and I erupt into huge goosebumps every time! Home Free always takes us along for the ride. I never leave a song feeling like "Meh, it was ok." That and the fact that no matter how long you've been a fan, you still forget, that aside from a few songs, this has only voices as instruments! Thank you for your reaction! 🇺🇸❤

    Please, please do yourselves a favor and listen to "All She Wants Is" by Duran Duran. I've met long time Duranies that have never heard this song!! It is one of their best! Hot! Sexy! Maybe, so sexy, that it is embarassing for some, but I have no shame when it comes to my boys!! I've been a Duranie since I was 13, my 1st concert ever; and my most recent on 9/04/22 in San Fran! I don't have much money. I'd donate if I could. But, I'm still trying to get someone to react to this song. Also, listen to Wing from their new album Future Past. It is incredible and my new favorite song!
