Austin has the ability to draw you in to anything he sings ... a very special quality that even some of the best vocalists do not possess ! What a charmer !
Thank you Michael! You're right, I know that I can trust you. I know that you enjoy Austin and Home Free! Yes, he put some of that South Georgia soul on it! Austin is Special! He did his dog gone thing! This was sooo Beautiful!!. Sending love from South Georgia! ♥️🤯😀🍟🔥
Shout out to to the unsung hero of Austin's recent work, the redoubtable Sebastien Douyon. Far from just being a pianist, he has proved himself to be a remarkable arranger and producer. With a song like this you can get ready-made backings but they won't always do what you want and need endless improvements and alterations to suit the singer. And that tactful bluesy piano was pure Sebi. If you want to hear what he does with a simple original demo, sent to Austin for turning into something magical, check out "Empty House" (possibly Austin's best work ever), a stunning blues number which is heartbreaking in its power. For legal copyright reasons, it's not on Austin's channel but on the composer's, ResurrecSis Music, along with other songs arranged by Sebi and sung by Austin. Each one would be a crowning achievement for other artists! There is a charming song called Your Bed which is pure Broadway and completely disproves those who claim that Austin can't sing without a southern twang.
Austin loves singing and it shows in all of his music. He is extremely blessed with not only a great voice,but also with the gift of knowing how to use it. I love listening to him sing. And he is the most kind and humble person when you meet him and the lovely Amberly, his muse.
I knew you'd say it was disgrossting, Austin put his stamp on this one plan & simple!! I still love Ray Charles singing it the best, & I can't imagine anyone ever topping that one, but Mr Austin Brown did it justice. Love this rendition so much, it's definitely my #1 for Austin, he never ever disappoints, he's just that talented!! 🎶❤️🎶
Loved your reaction. I knew it was going to be awesome because I know how you feel about his wonderful special voice and the way he sings/kills a song like this. I asked him many times to sing Georgia on My Mind ever since a few years ago he did a little minute clip of him singing I Hate Alabama to the tune of Georgia on My Mind. It was so wow and he finally did this. And I never dreamed it could get better throughout the song but he just keeps upping the levels during the song! Agree it is one of his best if not his best for the soul and feeling. Take care.
The arrangement with the strings was a definite tip of the hat to Ray Charles' studio version. As an Ohioan who moved to Georgia 56 years ago (and stayed) I love 'em both.
Those runs were a thing of beauty. Austin is an immense talent. Great cover, Ray Charles would have loved this version of Georgia. Brother Ray….meet Brother Austin. When you like a song, your face says it all. 🔥🔥❤️
Thanks as always SdyeFry for a good one. The commentary is as concise and to the point as the performance. Thanks for always coming back to Austin - one of my favourite tenors. Cheers!
Austin did an absolutely amazing job with this song. He has the perfect voice for all of the older songs. Truly enjoyed watching your reaction to this song.
This is a beautiful song to begin with. Love Ray Charles & Willie Nelson's versions. Austin did the song justice too. And the Canadian scenery was gorgeous including Niagara Falls.
Austin has such a beautiful voice and can do any song Justice! ❤️❤️ The scenery is so gorgeous, goes right with his voice🥰🤩🫢 Thanks for reacting to him, I am sure there will be so many more wonderful songs to hear!!👏👏👏
Michael you are very talented. What I love about you is your lack of jealousy. You celebrate the talent in others. This song was wonderful. I enjoyed your reaction!
@@DramaSydETV exactly, your generosity of spirt and the joy you express is delightful and uplifting, that’s why I always come back to your channel. Thank you for being you and sharing your time with us ❤️🙌🙌
One of my all time favorite songs!! I also like Kelly Clarkson's rendition. Between Unchained melody, Wanted, Tears from heaven, Let's stay together and When a man loves a woman, I can't pick a favorite from Austin. They're all special.😊🎶🎶
DramaSydE!!! How did I miss your reaction??!! Somehow I did. This was beautiful! Ray Charles still owns the song but this was wonderful. I love his high notes on this. He always has good runs. Great reaction as always!!!🥰😍
Ray Charles Willie Nelson Austin Brown Those are the versions I've heard. I'm ashamed to admit I've never heard the original Hoagy Carmichael & Ochestria version of this although I have certainly heard their original "Stardust".
Billie Holiday has a fair rendition, so does Peggy Lee her rendition is more jazzy,then there's India Arie also has a jazzy feel to the song all three are very enjoyable.
You got it 100%.!!!!! You are always honest, & that sir is why we keep asking you to check out Austin & Home free music. This old granny absolutely adores you!! So About dang time I subscribed. 😁 My fav Austin Brown Song “Lets stay together “ 🙏 check it out DramaFry ✌️💕
I heard a random guy in SAn Antonio Tx do the best version of this song I ever heard, even better than Ray bcuz of the drama and deep tone he put into it. Just some guy lol. I really regret not getting it on video, he coulda got millions of views.
![Home Free - Life Is A Highway [Home Free's Version] REACTION VIDEO](/img/n.gif)
Austin's voice has evolved so much over the years. His control is amazing. He's gone from being, basically, a male soprano to this deeply rich talent.
Ty you y much for doing this.hes just alsome ❤️❤️❤️
Perfect voice for the perfect song. Austin is so talented, and knows how to use his talents.
Austin has the ability to draw you in to anything he sings ... a very special quality that even some of the best vocalists do not possess ! What a charmer !

Austin wants to be doing is and sharing his God given talent.
Beautiful isn't a strong enough word for this rendition.

A sweet Georgia boy sings a song as sweet as Georgia peaches and honeysuckle on the breeze while we sip a cold Southern sweet tea.
I typically don’t enjoy runs, but Austin is the best at it. He keeps entertaining us with his special talent. Like you said, it’s ‘disgrosting’. 😆 😍
Hehehe he made you make those disgrosting faces 😂, he has such an amazing voice!
Michael you are very talented. What I love about you is your lack of jealousy. You celebrate the talent in others. This song was wonderful. I enjoyed your reaction!
Thank you so much, that means more than you know 🙏🏾❤️

Hi Dramasyde! 👍👍
Drama you are doing an awesome job with the weight loss! Great job. I see how hard you are working!
Mike, I've also heard Miss Gladys Knight sing a great version of this
Gonna check it out
Love this! Thank you ^_^
No one will ever touch Ray Charles, but Austin did his thing and you can feel his realness all through this. Thanks, Michael!
And all of God's children said Amen. The kid did great, but Ray did it best.
Beautiful. I also love Ian Moss from Cold Chisels version of this.
Yes and also John Farnham's live version
I think you'd love "Forget About Georgia" Lukas Nelson and Promise of The Real (Willie Nelson's son.
Did anyone else see that the backdrop of the fireplace was on and off during the video??
Ray Charles
Willie Nelson
Austin Brown
Those are the versions I've heard.
I'm ashamed to admit I've never heard the original Hoagy Carmichael & Ochestria version of this although I have certainly heard their original "Stardust".
Billie Holiday has a fair rendition, so does Peggy Lee her rendition is more jazzy,then there's India Arie also has a jazzy feel to the song all three are very enjoyable.

Michael Bolton covered this. Just a case of coping with his tendency to go OTT.
Sounds good but nobody can top Ray Charles
I really dislike Austin’s full beard he’s growing he is so cute with his short beard
Love Austin and love the song, but it just doesn’t sound right to me. Maybe it’s just me, but nobody can sing it right other than Mr. Ray C.
Agreed Crystal.
