Since I made you all wait so long between Home Free reactions, I thought I'd give you two in one week! And WOW I am so glad I decided to react to their cover of "When A Man Loves A Woman." This might actually be one of the best performances I've heard. It's certainly the best performance of THIS particular song! This really blew me away.

We just witnessed a woman falling in love in 6 minutes and 6 seconds!?🥰🔥
My dear young girl, this is not Micheal Bolton's song. It belongs to the late great, immortal Percy Sledge. Micheal Bolton is one of many to cover this song, This cover is on another level, I see Percy Sledge smiling down from heaven. And if you notice he is sitting down in this performance.
Percy Sledge made it a hit way back in 1966.
..
The expression on your face, when he initially started singing, would absolutely qualify as a Kodak moment. Yes, I'm old...Lmao.
As I understand it, Home Free has many (all) members test out the lead and then decided who fits the song the best. For me, that is the joy of Home Free, they really focus on the song over the singer and bring an amazing sound to life.
Well said. They truly are an ensemble. No detectable egos or overshadowing one over another. Love these guys.
I did a VIP and during Q&A I asked how they decided on who sung lead and Tim said it's pretty much who gets to the studio first
That's true though I heard that this one was different. Apparently Tim Faust has been pestering and badgering Austin to do this song for years but for some reason Austin wouldn't do it. That's what I heard anyway.
@@stephanginther9051 Austin felt he wouldn't be able to do the song justice. The success of his own solo career seems to have given him new confidence and there has been a great change in his voice for the better. There's also the Amberly factor - Austin and his gf are so totally in love that I think he felt that he knew how to handle it. The sorry mess of his love life for several years previously would tend to put anyone off singing about love!
were u on of the re/ex? Can,,,or can u do any .......more....send it.....or put a sok in it.....!!!!!
Not only is it the way that Austin sings this but it's also the way he looks into the camera. It's like he's looking at you! Makes me feel like a twenty year old again!
Molly, it's called an eargasm!!
when you have a2 sopranos, 5 altos, 5 tenors, 2 basses, and a couple beat boxers, the wealth of talent is off the charts!!
This song makes babies. Alone.
I think you just fell into the Home Free rabbit hole and welcome aboard. They don't have a song you won't like love your reaction. You are the best.
One thing that I really respect about Home Free is their support of each other. It's a wonderful thing.
Percy Sledge put this song out I think in the 60's, he did a great job too.
Molly, it's not a long song, but you should check out their cover of CSN's "Helplessly Hoping". It's hauntingly beautiful.
She will love it
Helplessly Hoping is in my opinion the best cover Home Free has done. And that's saying a lot.
@@kevin-5641 That is a stunning song, one of the best Home Free has ever done, and THAT is really saying something
Not ridiculous!! We all know the only thing better than hearing Austin sing is getting to WATCH Austin sing! He just radiates Joy!
As I understand it, Austin's fiance was in the studio with him, and he was singing to her. I'm sure that helped with the power he put into it.
When Home free sings this song it is never long enough.
... You weren't ready to react to this were you!! Your face exuded shock and satisfaction 👌👌 Loved this reaction and the song. Looking forward to seeing more of your reactions!!
I may be wrong, but I think I remember seeing something that Austin was singing to his girlfriend when making this video. Which would explain the high level of emotion he put into it.
He was. He put her by the camera so every time he looked into the camera he was singing to her. That’s why he had that smile when he looked in the camera
Thank you babe...as an old man...I can see LUV come out of a heart...you just did!! if I could swoun a woman like that...I would be the king of the world
You are who this music is made for, the average music lover. I have a feeling that your stomach was doing flips, especially when Austin gave those sultry looks into the camera. Glad you enjoyed it.
How you reacted says it all!!!!!!!! Loved your real candid, who you are type of woman, let it all hang out!!!!
That song is a ball as great as it get.
Not bad for a nearly 60 yr old song. It was fun watching you melt!!!
That stunned face right when Austin kicks in is priceless.......great video
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.
@Dagmar S, couldn't have said it better, thanks.😎😎😎😎
You did it again my fellow Home Fry loving your comments thank you! I just found Molly she's really good I love her honesty and pure joy!
This is the bass doing the lead vocals.. Tim is impressive
Pntx is better. Haven’t heard much from home free but this one is is good.
@@carlosbrown9144
I think of them as different.
PTX is a Cosmo in a martini glass. Home Free is a cold beer in a can.
Both can be satisfying.
Another masterpiece from HF!! Home Free and Home Fry forever!! Ty for your reaction!
I agree with all your points. The best ever. Perfect.
That is the way with Home Free and any of their songs you forget completely that they're an acapella group and there are no instruments. That is how good they are you can't go wrong with any of their songs they don't do covers they do upgrades and there is no egos they just want to make the best music
You do realize that Michael Bolton's version was also a cover?
This was originally recorded by Percy Sledge in the "Shoals".
This song has a very primal connection with most women. Without them even realizing it, it strikes a cord deep within their psyche and stirs their soul. Some would say it fuels their desire and kickstarts the libido in some women. I can see that. All from something as simple as music. It amazes me how music can have the power to touch people in such a way. It absolutely does though.
Welcome Homefry. Your eyes said it all.
Love your reaction! This is just how thousands of us felt Valentines Day a couple of years ago when they gave us this gift!❤️
Molly , don't feel bad girl! It happens to most all of us lady fries! We understand completely! Yes, they own every soong they perform! Original and covers. I prefer them over every original. None better! My favorite group ever of all time! Home Free are phenomenal!
Well add one more to Austin's list of slayed ladies.....he just does it everytime. Percy Sledge did the original back in 1966. Home Free takes a song & they demo it, and decide who sings it the best, and then go with it. Never heard of any disagreements, and it's usually pretty much unanimous. These guys seem to have not much ego....it's what's best for Home Free, not themselves. I'd like to give you a few more recommendations from Home Free.... One-Man Band, Amazed, Dive Bar Saints (an original), Born in the USA, Sea Shanty Medley. Make you feel my love (a Valentines Day gift to the ladies, it's humorous), and American Pie (featuring Don McLean original artist, for the song's 50th anniversary)
💯❤️ lol
Yup, we lost another one!
This one was different - Tim had been telling Austin for years to do the song. When he finally felt able to put his own spin on it, there was no question of demos or discussion, or anyone else trying out for it, they accepted from the off that he would slay it. As he did.
Austin crushed this with his beautiful sky high tenor. The gorgeous harmonies supporting all throughout, and Adam Rupp's beat boxing/vocal percussion was fabulous. They now own this song. Yes. They can take your breath away. Home Frees' music has brought me to tears many times. I totally understand. I have laugh/cried from the joy of their music. There is no ego in Home Free. They all record the leads and solos except for Adam Rupp) and then decide what is going to work the best to make the best music they can produce.
An old fashioned song for an old fashioned time.
I think it's the best version 🤷♀️ lol
Great reaction 🥰🔥🥰🔥
one of the best reactions to this video imo this is why i watch the reaction video's :D
I love your Genuine reactions.
I've been hopping around on TH-cam checking out this group performing this song to see what reactors felt about it. And I've come across a few ladies totally enraptured with it. There was even one reactor doing the reaction with his retired parents listening in, and his mama was floored. She likely grew up listening to the original, and I know her husband was going to get 'lucky' later that night. And I can see you were affected similarly.
I should also mention, also in line with the deep emotionality of this performance, that two reactors I came across, macho black men in their late 20s or early 30s whose woman had just left them, were literally left in tears. They struggled to get through the song, because it reached into the very heart of their recent experience in love. So this song and this performance is full of true experience.
Yeah, with Austin's first syllable, the power in this is established and unrelenting. The backup is perfect, providing places of strength for each lyric launch. And you were fun to watch trying to take in and digest the power of it. I have to wonder how much you blushed while listening to this, because you KNEW your reaction was authentic, honest, and unhidden. And thank you for your courage in doing so. You could have broken up the barrage with pauses, but you went straight through. Kudos, girl.
So enjoyed this. So loved living this vicariously through you. Keep it up!
The whole group is awesome😊
you dont have to be any kind of pro to react to anything, you just have to be a person :)
A likeable person to be successful and that sure is the case. Yay for me. :)
Yes! Yes! Yes! ---- Exactly ..... and then some. I do remember when Bolton came out with his version... and oh my!!! But this -- THIS tops all and honestly don't know that it could ever be performed better. Yeah -- could see in the (your) expression, the emotion --- mixed but in a good way! HF has that uncanny ability to bring "it" out. Truly enjoyed that 100%. Be Safe
Austin brings this big ol 270 lb. Powerlifter to tears of joy everytime I hear him sing this song!
We all long to be loved so powerfully by someone that they overlook all of our flaws and only see the best in us.
Molly that's why Home Fries love you. We don't need some vocal coach or semi singer that is not in Home Free league to tell us how great they are!!! We already know 😂
Austin’s girlfriend was on stage but off camera while he was singing this. That’s why he kept looking over to his left. I think it added a little more feeling to the song
I have loved this acapella group since the first time I heard them. I would give anything to be able to attend one of their concerts.
It's gotta be good when it gives you the giggles. Great reaction.
Fabulous reaction and yes, it was JOYOUS ❤️❤️❤️🙌🙌
Percy Sledge crushed with this song. They are all imitating him. He taught all of them how to sing this song. Home Free is fantastic though.
Yes, this performance just rocked you and it's great to see such surprise!
When I first heard this song done by HOME FREE, I knew it was going to be my favorite version
I felt the same way, girl.
Percy Sledge first recorded this song in 1966 from a studio in Alabama.........It was VERY famous song back then as well!!!
"When a Man Loves a Woman" is a song written by Calvin Lewis and Andrew Wright and first recorded by Percy Sledge in 1966 at Norala Sound Studio in Sheffield, Alabama. I'm afraid Michael Bolton is also a cover. This song has been around for a LONG time.
Your reaction was priceless! Loved it. Thanks!!💙🍟
I remember the original by Percy Sledge in 1966. Ladies at the time had much the same reaction to
the song as you did now :-) Austin has a once in a generation tenor voice--I've never been disappointed
hearing him sing. Thanks for the reaction. The original is also worth a listen. I like to compare covers
to the original artist's version. For instance Dimash covered Adagio, originally sung by Lara Fabian,
and listening to Lara's 1999 version showed me why Dimash thinks of her as one of his idols.
Legends of Home Free: Tim (bass) spent nine months talking Austin into doing this. They are a group and individuals, but make their group a group. If it helps, Austin's wife was in the studio as he sang and that also helped the performance. I agree, this is another song that they have put out there that even as a cover, they own it.
It's actually more fun watching a "regular person's(?)" reactions. Nicely done!
My fave cover of all time also 🔥💯🔥💜💜🤌🏻😎😎🤌🏻
It's the best version that i've heard also.
Reactions are what I enjoy most…not a music lessons, as I love how music affects different people, cultures, and preferences…great reactions.👍🏽
Perfect way to do this. Beautiful smile to boot. Thanks 😊
Love your reaction ❤ Man loves a woman ! Wow ! Powerful 🙌🏻
Home Free is exquisite and they are very intentional about reaching the soul of the listener and viewer of their performances whether video or live in person, They have a nack of identifying with their audience with that which ties to our personal lives. It happens the first time everytime someone new has the chance to be a first time contact with their performances. They are that dedicated. I really don't listen much to anyone else anymore because they have such a diverse genre of music they can perform which reaches to all of the music spectrum that I personally enjoy. They are not a one trick pony, they surprise us with every delivery they extend our way. Go Home Free, carry on..........
Home Free never disappoints! Please come back and react to more; there’s so much yet to explore!
You go Austin!!
What a spectacular heartfelt reaction Molly. HF has done a lot of amazing romantic songs recently that you should also react too; Bless The Broken Road, Amazed, One Man Band, Make You Feel My Love, and a couple older videos of Die A Happy Man and Cover Me Up which are just terrific also. Knowing how joyous you felt with this, most HF performances provide that warm, peaceful, and joyous feeling when you listen to them.
I'll join those suggesting you listen to Percy Sledge. More importantly I have spent many hours on music history, harmonic theory and playing scales but all that actually matters is that music moves us to tears or laughter or contemplation. Sometimes alone but wonderfully sometimes emotionally connected. Thank You for your shared love of music!
Thank you for that genuine, entertaining reaction!
So CUTE! I just loved watching you go all jello! This is a song that just brings out the fan-girl in every woman, and intelligent discerning man too. I’m watching again
Home Free Adam Rupp's drum solo totally awesome
Hark, Yonder she doth blush, LOVED your reaction,
They can cover anything and make it better. Loved your reaction
They don't cover it they Upgrade it so much.
Hi Molly, I'm a new subscriber so happy I found you! Hopefully is definitely pure joy! And they're funny if you've never seen Hillbilly Bone you must that shows their real selves it was actually filmed I believe on Tim's property and those are his animals and I love the fact they always put their friends and family in them. Oh and the butts remix is hilarious! They love each other so much and work hand in hand. If you ever have a chance to see them live do it I've seen them at the Florida strawberry festival and watch many videos I've been at home Fry for years and years. My sister-in-law that was battling cancer loved them and we would lay in bed together and watch the videos and laugh and cry together they got us both through it! May God bless you with your disability and illness! Thoughts and prayers are with you! And yes Home Free they are ridiculous and they do not do a cover unless they can blow it out of the park which is you well know they do every time!
Your reaction to this performance is absolutely adorable. Thank you for sharing.
Brothers in Arms by Home Free is beautiful and a little haunting.
You love it because every word of this song is true.
Tim (the bass) kept saying they needed to do this song with Austin as lead. Austin was resisting it because he felt no one could top Micheal Bolton. So, Tim, being Tim, called Micheal Bolton and got his blessing for them to do the song with Austin in lead. So glad Tim did! It perfectly shows Austin's abilities. Home Free is open to letting one person take lead. And they fully support each members other endeavors be it writing, singing or podcasts. So nice to know they really are friends.
I don't believe the story about Bolton. No way would HF seek someone's "blessing" except as a joke on Twitter, particularly when Austin clearly had a very different idea of how to handle the song. It's worth remembering that for many years Austin was their go-to lead singer and you don't humiliate your lead singer by asking someone else's permission for them to sing a song (remembering Bolton's horrible version was only a cover). It is much more likely that (as I have also heard) Austin at that time didn't feel he could do the song justice. There has been such a change in his voice over the recent year or two that he probably felt he could do it. I suspect, too, that the mess his private life had been in before Amberly made him feel he would be unconvincing as the man who knows about true love, whereas the deep happiness and joy he had found with her meant he understood the song completely.
@@patriciamcl54 That may be what you think but I am fairly certain I watched an interview with Tim stating that it took a little encouragement to get Austin to do it. He was concerned about "stepping on Micheal Bolton's toes". Not saying Bolton's was better or asking for a blessing but out of respect. Especially considering the health issues Micheal Bolton has been going through. And I am fully aware that Bolton's version was also a cover. And in Home Free, there is no "lead singer". Never has been unless you only go by the Sing Off. They have always traded off leads. I don't see it as humiliating. I see it as a mark of professional respect to contact Micheal Bolton. Something that Home Free would do.
Perfect reaction Molly! Yeah no ego's in Home Free they been together so long that they know everyone and I mean every member has something to offer!
In Honor of our Memorial Day could you do a very special cover by Home Free?
Home Free - Go Rest High On That Mountain (Official Music Video) - Vince Gill
Incredible!
Hello Molly Bee. I'm very hopeful that you've reached a awareness of just how powerful Love is in our lives. After your stupendous reaction to this version of this song, I'm blown away because I believe you just grew measurably in your awareness of just how powerful Music also is in our lives. Thanks so much for this reaction, & hopefully many more to come.
Percy Sledge sang it before Michael Bolton, both were wonderful but I agree that this one is my favorite version.
I can't believe that that boy is not a mega star with that voice.......the way he sings it...it make your eyes water up
Austin has a very powerful voice. All of them can lead in this group and do it well, their harmonies are great, and their beatboxer is great. Home Free does make you feel good to listen to them.
Home Free can't sing a bad song. They never miss.
I loved your reaction. You had that dreamy look that we all had.
Bolton's version is probably the best known (came out in the 70s, I think). Percy Sledge was the original recording artist in 1962 and the composer & lyricist were black, of course, which explains the depth of this Soul song. Can we just agree that Home Free's background vocals, their always impeccable harmonies, & Austin Brown's outstanding tenor blend of chest, head, & mixed voice (he was a voice/musical theater major in college, remember?) make this the best studio-enhanced a capella version?
This is an awesome rendition of this song. Austin and Home Free give it more than justice! Love your reaction. Welcome to the Home Free rabbit hole! Check out their cover of End of The Road by Boyz II Men it is awesome. They have so many songs - Man of Constant Sorrow, Elvira with the Oakridge Boys, How Great Thou Art. Countless Christmas songs and silly songs such as Make You Feel My Love, Never Going to Give You Up, Hillbilly Bone and so many more. Love you reaction!
Are you in love yet? 😏 I know I am. And I'm an old lady. 🤣 When I first started listening to Home Free, it was Tim who captured my heart.....because I have always preferred baritones and basses. Austin has converted me. He is now my favorite singer in the business today. Can't wait to see them in July. Check out his solo version of Unchained Melody on his site.
Don't sweat lack of technical expertise in the elements of music. You bring a profound understanding of what your senses witness; a deep grasp of what's going on behind what's going on; and a gift for putting into punchy, penetrating words the essence of the human spirit. You're a pro, sure enough.
If your speechless by this PLEASE check out AUSTIN (on his channel)
singing “BRING HIM HOME’ . recently released
He sings in an entirely different way that will leave you I believe even more speechless.
Thank you so much taking the time for HF
I absolutely agree! Any Austin fan will say check out his classical training on Bring Him Home. Incredible! And he has several great solo works he started doing during lockdown. I love Tears in Heaven and At Last and well, just anything he sings! lol. Take care.
Okay he gives you this powerful voice and you might want to keep in mind he's sitting down and then another little known tidbit that I found out from listening to home Free and getting more into them his wife was in the studio when he sang this so he was actually singing it to her
I've seen quite a few reactions of yours, along with many other reactors ... I have to say that your reaction made me watch yours a couple of times... not only for the great performance, which it is, rather, to selfishly enjoy your imparted emotions. Know that connections made through great music is a very personal experience and yours to this song by Austin was certainly worth a few watches. The ecstatic joy you were feeling was fully transmitted through your most honest way, which gives others a small look into your true personality. Thank you for allowing us voyeurs to join in, along with your enthusiasm. I wish you much wellness and may God Bless!
Molly likes it when someone serenades to her LoL
Some serious fangirling going on right here 😂
I agree I think you have fell into the Home Free rabbit hole. And I think that you enjoy a live performance video of Home Free and Texas Hill live at the Ryman theater and welcome to the Home fry family great reaction and I just subscribed for more Home Free.
This is my absolute favorite singing performance of theirs. Austin just SLAYS this!! This is emotional, powerful, and reaches the soul. This song always makes me feel better every time I hear it!!
You're reaction wasn't wrong.... in fact, it was spot on! :-)
