#HomeFree #BrothersinArms #HomeFries
One thing I appreciate about Home Free is their respect for veterans. They can be very funny and lighthearted, but they know when it's time to be serious and give respect.
Home Free released this for our Veterans Day last year. They are unapologetically patriotic and never shy away from sensitive social issues. Everybody Walkin This Land is a phenomenal message song. Make sure you listen to Tim's message at the end. One Voice ft Billy Gilman, and People ft Jeffrey East are 2 others. Great reactions!
“As a Human Race, We’re All God Damn Stupid!!!” Yup, we are!
Please react to Home Free’s “Everybody’s Walking This Land.” And make sure you watch it all the way to the end of Tim’s out-take message! It was appropriate at the filming of the video just as it’s appropriate now and will be again tomorrow!!!!
I conquer Everybody Walkin' This Land...it's amazing & the right song for after the 2020 Civil Unrest
Definitely another powerful and much needed message!
Helplessly hoping, traveling soldier, man of Constant sorrow
FYI. This is actually not a cover of the Dire Strait’s original. Rather, it’s a cover of the version by Finnish group, “Club for Five”. Their bass is also a basso profundo, like Tim Foust. His name is Tuukka Haapaniemi. It’s that version that begins with a very deep bass solo. When HF decided to do this, they called “Club for Five” for permission to cover THEIR version.
Just listened to Club 5’s version of this and it was so beautiful and amazing!!! 👍👍
Its still a cover of Dire Straits version, however its arranged
@@colingreengrass6751 yes. But they really covered the CLUB FOR FIVE rendition. The one thing that stayed the same from the DIRE STRAITS original was the lyrics.
I did not know that. I will look for it.
Everybody Walkin This Land is another strong message from Home Free.
Their cover of "Man of Constant Sorrow" (sung in the film O Brother, Where Art Thou by the Soggy Bottom Boys) is legendary.
Thanks for these reactions. Nice to see you guys learning the band member's names, too.
They really are the masters of using sound AND silence to convey emotion. Their cover of “Helplessly Hoping “ is another great example of this. Glad you guys did this one!
Tim Foust is involved in fund-raising for U.S. veterans charities and is often joined by Austin Brown. There is also a video of Home Free "God Blessed Texas" from which all proceeds went to relief efforts following a natural disaster in Texas.
This is such a haunting version. They recorded an entire patriotic album and released this for Veterans Day in the United States…thank you so very much!
This is not a 'patriotic' song. Listen to the lyrics again.
@@patriciamcl54 Agreed, I said it was included on a patriotic album as a descriptive because giving the name of the album would be meaningless. It is on the album out of respect and gratitude for those who sacrificed to protect their country. That theme is throughout the album, certainly use whatever word you feel appropriate. 🤗
This is nothing short of a masterpiece. Everything they put their hand to is elevated to gold standard. Perfection. Home Frees' musicianship is unparalleled. The more you delve into their body of work, the more impressed you will be. We promise.
They recently released Unchained Melody that's very good.
Couldn't get here fast enough, as this is one of my favorites from HF. Yes, those chords! They did Mark Knopfler proud. I feel like they raised their own bar on this one - thank you!
Such a genius touch to show the silhouette of the fellas in front of the window. I know some see it as a "ghost"y reference but it strikes me as a reflection of the POW/MIA flag. We'll never know just how many of those met the same fate as the soldier of this song. 😥
TIM FOUST, the bass in the beginning, has a 5 octave range. Believe it or not, he can sing tenor as well as bass! He also writes and has written several of their songs! Thank you for your
You are right, I think they paid respect to the original song while doing it in their own interpretation. The song itself is iconic. This version is full of hauntingly beautiful harmonies and the lyrics takes you on a disturbing last journey of a fallen brother. If it doesn't make you think twice about the wisdom of war, you have no heart. When HF gets serious, you feel it to your very soul. You might enjoy 'In the Blood' or 'Helplessly Hoping'. For another style song you might check out HF's 'May Day' or 'Bless the Broken Road". For a Pentatonix flavor 'Ring of Fire' featuring Avi Kaplan of Pentatonix might be your cup of tea.
Put the kettle on!
@@BritPopsReact The campfire is already burning.
Their five part harmonies in this song are incredible. Amazing interpretation by Home Free.
The guys from Home Free are masters of harmonies. It's fantastic how they recreate the mood of the song - a masterpiece. And Tim's fantastic bass voice is in my eyes the best there is at the moment, so powerful, expressive and flawless.
Everyone's walking the land a good one and go rest high on mountain is good one
Having had a lot of family serve in some branch of the military this really hit home for me. Not all of my family made it home from war. They did a wonderful job on this master piece. ✌🌎✌🌎✌
Adam Chance, often called just "Chance" to help keep him and Adam Rupp separate, the 2nd singer in this song was the BASS for his previous A Cappella Band. Street Corner Symphony. So HOME FREE is currently very equipped in the BASS area. LOL. Great Post.
I agree with your comment about the pipe organ feel to this arrangement. Those last two notes sound like the final "Amen".
As I am a %100 disabled medically retired US Army, this song brings tears to my eyes everytime I hear it. It makes me slip back to the time I was Enlisted and all the people and Brother in Arms I had.
Give “Sea Shanty Medley” a go and “Amazed” as well as “Dreamer” which is an original HF song that is live with Texas Hill from Roman Auditorium in Nashville, TN. There are so many good ones to choose from, you can’t go wrong with any of them.
I believe it was at Ryman Auditorium the home of the
Grand Old Opry.
@@susansundaram6737 Sorry, spell checker!😤
@@hamblinta No problem, just was in the interest of
clarity.
HELPLESSLY HOPING. WHEN A MAN LOVES A WOMAN. FOLSOM PRISON BLUES some great ones so many
💯💯
No group can take a great song and make it even better like Home Free! Enjoy your reactions and seeing you discover this amazing group!
This is actually a cover of a cover. This five part harmony arrangement is from the Finnish A Capella group Club for Five. Tim asked Tuukka, their bass, for this arrangement. Tuukka sent it, then later highly praised and loved the "echo" sequences Home Free added to make it theirs.
cool. Thanks for this
Helplessly Hoping, another song with beautiful harmonies
Well, I'm a Pentaholic but love all things acapella. The human voice is totally amazing. Austin Brown's cover of Unchained Melody is amazing. When a Man Loves a Woman is also a mind blower.
And Tim Foust's version, also! They both do a great job with the song! I am a Tim Foust fan, to be honest! Everyone has their picks!
I was once a dyed-in-the-wool Pentatonix fan although I do not listen to them any more.
"Mary, Did You Know" is also SPECTACULAR! I would love to hear your reaction of that! Please Do! I have followed HOMEFREE for twenty years, and have yet to be dissapointed!
Home Free are always so respectful of the originals they cover and make them theirs. ❤
For more of their harmonies, try "In the Blood" and "Helplessly Hoping".
Home Free absolutely crushed this song. I've always been a fan of Dire Straits and Home Free did this so much justice. I think I saw BP1 a little misty-eyed 🙃 Thanks for the reaction guys!
There amazing There version of How Great Tho Art is a must see its set in the Alps Its the most beautiful and scenic video Check it out
Hauntingly beautiful yet sends a powerful message. The do remind me of a pipe organ. Good reaction. This was released on Veteran's day 2021 (aka Armistice Day).
This was so riveting. HF did credit another group for the arrangement. Those harmonies!
This is a Hauntingly Beautiful song
Brilliant 👏 👏 👏
Tim and Avi sing together in the Home Free cover of "Ring of Fire" and I think Geoff from Voice Play helped set up the arrangement. Small community at the top of the game. Glad they get along since we all win from that.
Hi there, I love this song, and Home Free more than do it justice. The switching between the action in black and white and the group in colour is really powerful to the message they are telling. Thanks for another great upload 👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏
Home Free can take you from tears of laughter to tears of joy, to tears of sadness and anguish without missing a beat! (Pardon the pun)
Thank you for reacting to this song. It has become one of there signature songs along with MAN OF CONSTANT SORROWS, TAKE ME HOME COUNTRY ROADS and UNCHAINED MELODY. Tim Foust got this arrangement from a Finnish acapella group called Club Of Five and made some small changes to it (mainly added the echo sequence). When you get a chance you should listen to Club of Five’s version. This is very powerful moving version of this song. You are one of the few reactors to mention that they were sounding like a Pipe organ. As you are starting to find out these guys can sing any style and make it sound fabulous. Looking forward to your next Home Free reaction. You Gentlemen have a great day.
Just an amazing job by Home Free. On your journey another serious one of theirs is "Everybody walkin' this land" a cover of a Mark Cauthen song...it was Home Free's response to the terrible Civil Unrest in 2020 after the death of George Floyd by police in Minneapolis. Tim has an awesome message after the song is over, please listen to it
Thank you guys for reacting to this beautiful song! One thing I love about Home Free's guys is that when they're harmonizing together, they blend so perfectly BUT you can hear every single voice separately. They don't just sound like one big ear piercing noise like some other a cappella groups! Whether being serious or goofballs, their vocal quality never suffers one bit!😊
Excellent reaction. I would suggest you react to Take Me Home Country Roads....It's a version like no other.
Hauntingly beautiful rendition
I was wondering how they could do this w/o Marks guitar but they did it very very well . Great poem to humanity
Home Free did a great job again. They just give it their own twist, but still respect the original.. But I think I've already seen and heard all their videos and of course not one has disappointed me. Because you can sing a song well, but if it only reaches your ears and not your heart and soul then it is not complete for me. But HF reaches me deep inside so they are perfect for me. I really listen to HF every day. Not only because of their great voices, each with their own specialty, which makes the harmonies so phenomenal I think. Not only by the inhuman mouth artist Adam Rupp, although I do think he is the glue of the group. But for me it's their great personalities, the love for each other and the fun they have together that makes it complete for me. No egos, no rivalry.
@Joan N.
Thank you for your comment and we totally agree.
They seem to be a great bunch of guys and very talented.
If you would like a more "feel good" song that leaves you feeling lifted & happy, react to Can't Stop the Feeling!
After this you should listen to their version of Go Rest High on That Mountain
Thank you so much for reacting to this sing. Home Free did this song so hauntingly and ghostly. Maybe try...In The Blood...What We Ain't Got. If you have time. Thanks again.
I was cut off again...I was just going to say THANK YOU FOR YOUR WONDERFUL REACTION!
Tim, Avi, and Geoff are often involved in each other's music. Avi joins Home Free in "Ring of Fire"' and Geoff arranged Home Free's version of "Elvira" which featured their musical predecessors, The Oak Ridge Boys. That brought another bass, Richard Sterban of the Oaks. Both of these are well worth your time.
This is what I love about these guys. They are quick to praise each other. I love how Tim bows to Richard. Such respect. Like we had The Three Tenors.. We should have the Three Basses. It would destroy all speakers :) I have read that each has helped the others out with things like singing, etc. And, each has their own tone..... I am partial to Tim and Home Free, though.
Fantastic harmonies as always by home free. Brothers in Arms is one of my top 10 ten tracks ever, a real classic and a true masterpiece by Dire Straits and the whole album is brilliant. All credit to Home Free for taking on such an icon track.
Thank you for mentioning Mark Knopfler and Dire Straits. Mark wrote a beautiful song!
@Lucinda Funk- Vance
Thank you for pointing it out, Mark did indeed write a beautiful song.
If you want to hear Tim and Avi singing bass together...try Home Free's cover of Ring of Fire..Great Johnny Cash song and the cover is great with both bass voices.
Harmonies insane these guys are just so good great reaction
Every time I hear this song I get goose bumps and shivers down the back of my neck
Awesome Review!!!!! Lot of respect by Home Free to deliver the right interpretation intentionally.
Not afraid to admit….I got choked up.
That line was “we’re fools to make war”
Love Home Free
Their amazing musical skills and the range of genres and emotional tone they cover, all without celebrity shells makes them unique in my book. This piece has the reverence of Taps or bagpipes at a funeral for me.
I was really hoping you'd do this. I was looking forward to seeing BP1s face with Tim's bass! It's so haunting and beautifully put together. You're right, so apt right now. Thank you for doing this one.
@Becca
Thanks Becca, it is a great song and Home Free did a great job.
We really enjoyed it.
You're Hongries too...and we love our cousins!... everyday!
Homfries...sorry
If you react to Home Free, the Home Fries will come! As a Home Fry, I recommend How Great Thou Art, Helplessly Hoping, Ring of Fire (with Avi Kaplan), Bless This Broken Road, Woman/Amen, My Church, Man of Constant Sorrow. Wait until you’ve become pretty familiar with the group to do Mayday (but it sounds like you’re pretty close). Winter Song is another of my favorites. Champagne Tastes (Beer Budget) is an original by Tim, and if you watch, you’ll see a cameo of Avi Kaplan. Enjoy the Home Free rabbit hole - it’s deep, but you won’t want to escape!
Great reaction guys. I love that this song means so much. Looking forward to the next.
Hits in the feelings
Thank you for the reaction video. My parents immigrated to the US as children during WW2 from Ukraine. To see the destruction and death that is going on there now is tearing my heart out of my chest listening to this song. Thank you to Great Britain for all the help they have provided to the men and women fighting for their freedom right now. I stand with Ukraine 🇺🇦!!!!!!
New viewer here and so glad you are reacting to Home Free !!! They have such a huge cataloge of Great songs to pick some reactions from, would love to hear lots more from you guys.
A beautiful rendition of this song which, as BP1 said, with what's going on today, really drives home the
message. It also shows their ability to take any type of song and do it justice. There are many great choices to fill out the month. You can't go wrong.
Great score BTW.
If you want another song to show their harmony (and a very rare chance to hear Adam’s sweet tenor, check out How Great Thou Art.
So POWERFUL
There is a video of the three bases you mentioned, and they can each out do each other. The three of them are not of this planet, amzing.
Loved your reaction! I just subbed for more Home Free! This video is just hauntingly beautiful! Check out their video for My Church!
This was bloody brilliant!!!
@Sherry Arflin
It was indeed.
Thanks for the comment
Love watching you guys react to acapella music. This is a really great song. A Finnish acapella band called Club for Five does a really great job with this. You can add Tuukka Haapaniemi to you list of unbelievable basses.
May I suggest "Helplessly Hoping" by Home Free, a Cosby, Stills and Nash cover. Unbelievable harmonics. Thanks for the reaction and look forward to more.
It's respectful. Besides being brilliant.
THANK YOU! You are the very first reactors I have seen who recognized the pipe organ. I have sung with pipe organs, and they have really captured it...especially the last 2 chords.
❤❤
Love home free; you've got to listen to Do you hear what I hear! Brilliant arrangement.
Thanks guys for doing the Home Free reactions! We fans just love these guys. They have so many styles of songs. Some that I love In the Blood, Mayday, End of the Road (Boys II Men cover), Workin for a Living, Everybody Walkin This Land, Sea Shanty Medley, My Church, doo-wop version of Blue Ain't Your Color, Crazy, Unchained Melody just released recently.. Fun ones, serious ones, fast-paced songs, old classics like American Pie with Don McLean singing with them. Thanks again! Take care.
Thank you for the Home Free reaction. Gotta go back now and see your previous reactions to HF. As a Home Fry, I appreciate you taking the time. Cheers!
Great reaction, thank you! The idea of the organ is on point :)
Great reaction. My suggestions are for a Chance lead, “I Can’t Outrun You”…5 part harmony and Chance directed the video. “End of the Road”, Rob lead, shared with Austin. Rob’s soul just oozes with his delivery. “Champagne Taste (on a beer budget), Tim lead,he also wrote it, and it’s hilarious. “Blue Ain’t Your Color”, Rob lead, shared with Chance. It’s Motownesque.
You should really check out Home Free's When A Man Loves A Woman-it's amazing.
I'm angry too. Beautiful song.
Ty so much for reacting to this!! A masterpiece!!
So I've never looked at this like the Monty Python skit where the captives are played as a human organ. Now I have that image stuck in my head
@Mike the Dad Crosby
That is very funny and now you mention it, we can't un-see it either.
Thanks for the comment
Great song, great performance.Thank you, friends.Wonderful reaction!👏👏👏🇷🇺
Do Mayday it shows the versatility of the group
One of my favorites of theirs. Dire Straits is guitar driven where this is voice driven. Yeah Tim can get down there. It’s hauntingly beautiful. Loved Tim’s low notes. Loved the echoes. Loved the almost black and white film. Tim and Chance looked ghost like in the windows. You’re not the only guys to say their singing sounds like a church organ. Yes, Home Free is all those things….silly and serious, they can make you laugh or cry. Their harmonies are so good. Try Helplessly Hoping, How Great Thou Art, One Man Band, In the Blood. Good reaction boys!😀
This song by Homefree reminds me of the Gregorian monks chanting in the medieval castle chapels.
Excellent reaction, guys ! Nice rendition :-)
How many men throughout time have always thought they'd live out their lives in their hometown. Then answered a call to arms and fallen halfway around the world.
"These mist-covered mountains are a home for me now, but my home is the Lowlands and always will be.
Yeah this is a pretty heavy track. I remember being in high school when this album came out. Shiny new LP jacket to sit on the living room floor and read while you're listening to masterpiece after masterpiece.
And the message never get's old.....it's the same the world over. We go out, cause harm and suffering to our fellow humans all for what? Land? Resources? For "things"....life isn't about "things". Theres so much more than enough for it to go around if we'd only just listen instead of turning a blind eye to this kind of wealth mongering.
I truly do well up whenever I listen to this, either version to be honest, because of the unrelenting HOPE for that day that we'll no longer yearn for it.
Keep on the Home Free search gents, its well worth it. Man of Constant Sorrow is a true must, before you move on. And you HAVE to end with Mayday LOL
@Daniel O'Sheigh
Hi Daniel, I missed a few of your comments and replies, I do apologise.
We have finished our Artist Spotlight for Home Free but will be returning to them more often and will add your requests to the list of ones to give a try.
As for the LP, it was a great album and as you say just filled with great tracks and this tune is still so relevant today as it was back then.
We never learn.
Hope the move is going well.
Oh, we are starting to add a new "Britpop" section, looking back on some of the great bangin songs from back in the day.
Cheers for now
I recommend another song of their serious side; "In the Blood".
Nice rendition, respectful and well done. B1, you hit the nail on the head about the human race!! Amen. B2, did you like the Mark Knopfler/Emmylou Harris All The Roadrunning? I really liked that one. Chuey sends both his favorite Brits love, furry little kisses and blessings of peace, he senses your pain. We all need blessings of peace........
@Chuey's Mama
The guys really did a very respectful version and I was a bit worried as the original is one of my favourites.
I have watched Mark with Emmylou and they sound great together.
I doubt it would be B1's style but I certainly enjoy it.
We should get more furry kisses sent out all over the world, it would be better than what is going on at the moment.
@@BritPopsReact Yes my dear B2, the world could use all kinds of love and peace, or at least a really really accurate sniper. I hope you and yours are all well and safe, with all the heavy shit going on. My 1st husband was a military man, Gulf War veteran. I know all to well how that can screw someone up. Furry kisses and love to all.
Check out the cover of Ring of Fire 🔥 Avi sings with them.
