You've had Country Rob, Gospel Rob, Soulful Rob, and Rappin' Rob; now you have Opera Rob.
Austin said that he recorded his part, but after hearing how good Rob was doing his part, he decided to go back and record his part again. They both decided to wait to record until after a Home Free tour, so that their voices would be at their strongest.
P00
How unfortunate that you were able to monetize what you do my goodness no preparation and no belief and people still give you money well good for you
Reaction video honey
Apparently, when Austin asked Rob to do it with him, Rob was just like "ok, give me a month". WTH??!! To think he swung back into that professional standard in a month after not singing Opera in years is Amazing!!!
Rob actually went to performing arts school for opera. Austin and Rob killed this! Holy fudge nuggets! 🤯🤯🤯🤯
Fudge nuggets 🤣🤣
@@minneyruth Hey Ruth! "Holy" fudge nuggets! Love Kristi's word terminology! That was funny!❤️
@ Kristi Stanovich Love your comment!♥️😆
@@louisetemples7011 👋🤣
@Kristi Stanovich, “Holy fudge nuggets”??!! 😂😂😂
You just won the comment section 🎉👏🏻
I might have to adopt that phrase 😂
I went to school with Austin. He WAS a Musical Theater major but the training at OCU was centered around opera and classical singing, followed by classical musical theater. I remember auditioning and we couldn’t sing anything more modern than 1976 LOL. Very different to most MT programs (hence Chenoweth’s amazingness). While not the major itself the MT kids would have to sing a LOT of opera/art song and were required to audition for all operas as well. That said you can never fully remove the glorious Georgia out of Austin’s voice 😅- who wants that anyway!?
You have been Rob-smacked!
Austin sounds just like Jose Carreras ( one of the three tenors). Rob sounds as close to Luciano Pavarotti as you’re going to get. Bravo
Austin sounds like either Jose or Andrea Bocelli. Jose was definitely the best looking of the Three Tenors! 😂😊 Rob is definitely powerful like Pavarotti! Rob & Austin did a remarkable job on this song! It brought me to tears!😢
Liked that last bit….and you have a great voice. Maybe you could be center stage, if you wanted. Why not!? 😊
.
I'd say Rob totally shows his "chiaroscuro", his voice was at the same time 'light' and 'dark'. Austin didn't have that chiaroscuro. BUT Austin still did a SPLENDID job.
To me this is Austin's way of highlighting Rob's talent.
This! 👆
Austin wanted to show off Rob's Opera voice and talent, so he did it with him. That's friendship! The Home Free guys are friends. Tall, handsome, charming, humble, yet amazingly talented men! We love them!
Am I crazy or does Rob actually have the same kind of warmth ❤ in his voice as Pavarotti? I never ever expected that kind of voice to come around twice in my lifetime.
You are right, Austin is singing with a trained opera singer, everyone has a past.
I think people focus so much on Austin's voice, which is indeed very good, that they tend to forget that the rest of the group are also RIDICULOUSLY talented. Rob just has one of those voices that can go from country, to soul, and now to opera and do them all seamlessly.
how many times have we said Rob doesn't look like he should sound like that. He looks like he should sound like this! Awesome job guys, Great reaction thanks for sharing!
exactly
Gospel Rob becomes Opera Rob. And this guy rapped Baby Got Back.......incredible, eh? Fantastic!
Years ago Rob's vocal coach said he would have a huge career in opera. Thank God he joined Home Free. The best thing I heard about this video was from a Italian opera singer/'reactor. She said she not only forgot they weren't opera singers, she forgot they weren't Italian.
Rob - Classically Trained
Austin - Theatrically Trained
Gives Rob especially an edge compared to a typical Country Singer.
Now you know why they all point to Rob when asked who is the best singer in the group.
True
👍👍👍👍👍😍😍😍😍😍😍
Austin's is perfect! Absolutely perfect! His timbre is what is him, why we are hearing the familiar, even though it's amazing!!! But, Rob!!! 😳 He's not just "gospel Rob", anymore... he's GOSPERA ROB!!! Oh, my days!!! BEAUTIFUL!!!
Ha love that gospera rob
If you google Pavarotti singing this same aria, you will be amazed at how good Rob sounds in comparison to one of the most famous opera tenors in recent history. Rob did an amazing performance even though he hasn’t sung any opera for 15 years. The fact that he pulled off this performance is a major testament to his talent.
100% expected of Austin but 200% amazed by Rob!
Perfectly said 👏
Isn't this magical? Lol. I agree, Rob DOES sound like an authentic opera singer. Together, it's magic.
Rob is the only one of them to have any Opera training, so yes it is Rob. Truly an amazing performace and Rob does give me chills.
Goose bumps!
Goose bumps!
Austin majored in classical music theatre performance and Rob majored in vocal performance and trained in opera but it's been 15 years since he's done it. They are AMAZING! We are truly blessed to have them in our lives. Each one of our guy's could be doing anything at all and be making much more money than they do yet they choose to be in the Home Free band as brothers and perform for us! I can't explain how much I admire and respect them. I always have! However the level of admiration and respect is now raised to an unmeasurable proportion! I can't even describe how much I love them. I cried upon the first note when I watched the video for the first time and I'm still crying every single time I hear it. They took my breath away! Two words come to mind, Phenomenal and Perfection! Thanks for reacting Nick! Sending love from South Georgia!♥️😃🍟🔥
These could have been my words.. 💖
@@JoanN63 ♥️
Absolutely 💯 % agree
A great voice only matures & improves in 15 years. As Rob's has.
WOW
Rob has that ‘opera singer’ look also. He is so very gifted. The Home Free guys are at the top of their game for sure! Love them!!
Listen carefully to the voices - yes, that is Rob - singing in Italian. Rob studied vocal performance in college - opera. He just hasn’t sung it in 15 years, but you don’t forget that training, or lose that voice. Austin studied music theater, so he has the training as well. Together - just magnificent.
I made my husband listen blind and he thought it was Pavarotti and Meatloaf. And we LOVE Home Free, and he knows their voices.
Lolol!!!!
Bwaaaaahahaha! Ok I got the joke!
LmAo... I got the reference immediately!!!
they didn't try. they nailed it. extraordinary
They are not just Country. They can sing every thing.
OK…Rob Did take opera in university….15 years ago….so, did Austin….He’s the one to talk Rob into doing this❤️🔥‼️ Rob reminds me of Pavoratti….Austin …Andrea Bocelli.
I completely agree! I went back & listened to both Pavarotti & Bocelli yesterday doing this song & that's what I decided too!😊
This was my comment, Rob is Pavarotti and Austin is Bocelli!!!
#GospelRob is now #OperaRob! My mind was blown. Now I need to hear #JazzRob. I understand he is a jazz singer too. This is the first reaction of these guys where I did not see a head shake or kerchief slap. Mainly because your mind was blown like everyone else.
JAZZ?! Oh. God. Yes, LORD! Please!
Rob is a huge talent.
Why not metal Rob?
I'll pass on #metalrob. That style has never appealed to me, but then, I wasnt a huge opera fan either. Hmmm
What genres are left? We've got all these different Robs -- blues, r&b, country, rap, gospel... Edit: Louis Armstrong? How 'bout some Sam Cooke? That would be 2 different songs with the same title -- Wonderful World
Dude, simply put Rob studied opera. Austin studied theater....and did musicals. So it's real.
I have been saying it for years now and this is proof that all of Home Free are Angels. WOW !!!!!!!!!!👏👏👏👏👏👏👏❤❤❤❤😀😀😀😀
I love that!!🐝🤗❤️
Nick, yes this is real. Rob studied Opera in college and when approached by Austin to do this project, he told Austin he'd not sung Opera-style for 15 years but he'd try....Rob did more than try !!!! I was like you, very MIND-BLOWN when I 1st heard it
My reaction was far more laced with foul language than is permitted on TH-cam...then I relistened and Sat with my jaw dropped for 15 minutes....still in shock. Thanks for the reaction Nick!!!
You know how you always refer to Gospel Rob when he has a big soulful part in one of Home Free’s songs? Well I’d like to introduce you to Opera Rob. I’ve been calling him that for quite a while now. I heard him playing around with his operatic voice in a behind the scenes video once a long time ago and I asked him about his opera training a couple years ago. His college degree is in vocal performance, which is primarily opera. On certain songs I can hear Opera Rob sneaking in…if you listen carefully you can hear it in the Sea Shanty Medley, and it is even more pronounced when he sings it live. I’ve really wanted to her Rob actually sing some opera for a long time…I’m so glad Austin convinced him to do this. People will never hear him the same way again. I loved your reaction. (Oh, and they are not singing live in the video…the audio you hear the studio recording)
This is my favorite aria of all opera songs. Gives me chills every time I hear it...and I've played hundreds of times.
Play it at top volume and see if you get goisebumps, too...and tear up!❤
I will say it again...There is nothing that Home Free can't master with one or all of the members. Vocal Excellence
Head to toe goosebumps at Rob's INCREDIBLE ending!
I am EXTREMELY picky about this song. Luciano Pavarotti OWNS this song...always had always WILL imo. Having said that...Rob and Austin KILLED it!!!! 🥰😍🤩🤯
Pavarotti would be proud!
Rob is classically trained just like Avi Kaplan.
Austin is trained in Musical Theatre.
I am so glad they did this so we could hear Rob's beautiful operatic tenor! I recall Tim once saying that Rob could sing opera. And it has seeped out on occasion in videos when he is goofing around! We all know Austin is so versatile but this shows off Rob's ability.
Rob has the depth of voice of a true opera singer, he has a more open voice. He is amazing. Austin has a theater voice, beautiful but more upfront and frontal. A beautiful mix of the types of voices. Austin didn't open as much but they are both amazing vocalists.
They sound just like Luciano Pavarotti and Freddy Mercury. Brilliant. Beautiful. And I don't even like opera. But the sound of these two voices... magical. Rob's been holding out on us.
Rob studied Opera. Both are classically trained; Rob in Opera, Austin in Musical Theater. They can sing anything!!! Amazing! Rob is an Opera Singer.
When I first heard this, I fully expected them to turn the camera around to show that Rob was lip-syncing to a Pavarotti-type behind the camera, but then Austin stepped in and I recognized his vocal quality. I had forgotten that Rob majored in vocal performance in college, specializing in opera. His vocal quality is amazing - The depth, the richness! These are the guys who sang in "The Butts Medley"? Note the wind-up before the big ending. Naturally, Austin has to show off by throwing in a turn on the last note. They may not be ready for La Scalla, but I am IMPRESSED!
I was going to say, Rob's definitely been trained for Theater and Operatic stage performance... The tenor is strong in this one!
I’ve watched this about 10 times today. I’ve read in the various comments that Rob did Opera for 4 years in college but hasn’t sung it for 15 years and was very nervous.
They can sing any genre. Rob is magnificent. Austin is a lyrical tenor and Rob a heroical tenor.
Wether individual, together, these gentlemen bring light and joy to all of us who hear, listen. BRAVO, BRAVO, BRAVO👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏
You're not imagining things. It's really Rob & Austin & they knocked this out of the park. I saw this 30 minutes after it was posted & I was totally blown away by the performance. Tears, goose bumps & all. Check out Andrea Bocelli's version of the song. I've heard it many times before & was totally blown away by the last note they sing. These gentlemen worked really hard on this to give that kind of performance & they deserve a standing ovation for it. Absolutely beautiful.
Our Home Free men can sing ANYTHING!! Yes, Rob has trained in opera, but he says he hasn't done any in about 15 years.
Bravissimi!!
Austin's Georgia on my mind is exceptional!!!!!!!
There is nothing these guys can't sing at this point. This is just insane!
I can’t get over this!!! Rob voice is to die for in this! I knew it would have to be good if it was my Home Free guys, but this!?… this is off the charts. They made me cry🐝🤗❤️
As soon as they started singing , tears came to my eyes. These fellows never ever disappoint.
Just accept it, it's happening😁and it is BEAUTIFUL
I can't believe that you've missed hearing that Rob trained in opera, but Austin kept up really beautifully with his background in show music. Love your reaction Nick! Aren't they totally awesome! Rob could certainly give Andrea Bocelli a run for the money... Austin has a tremendous breath control and there are no words for Rob!!
Fun response. Thank you.
Austin like Andrea Bocelli and Rob is more in Pavarotti's style.
What a singer's musical training is can be very different from what they end up doing professionally. Case in point, Avi Kaplan is a formally opera trained basso profundo who sang pop acapella in Pentatonix and now sings his own compositions in folk rock. Maybe we should get Avi to do a bass aria out of Cosi fan Tutte (The Magic Flute) by Mozart next?
Rob is an opera trained tenor.
Austin is also formally classically trained but sings in more of a musical theater and pop classics direction.
Homefree did not specialize in country until the SingOff talked them into doing it for their competition. Tim and others have talked about it in interviews.
He developed his channel as did Tim Foust as their income sources during the pandemic quarantine with no touring for live shows.
I've never seen so many reactors gobsmacked, it's so funny watching their first viewing knowing what they are going to hear. Rob and Austin well done, so beautiful
I think it's like the first time anyone hears Tim sing tenor. 😂 HF are seriously some of the most versatile, talented group of guys I have ever heard. Every single one of them could be a superstar on their own.
Awwww!!!! I've been IMpatiently waiting & looking for you to be on this one!!! Totally mind blowing 🤯 😳🥰🥰
I’m so happy to hear Rob’s lower register, so rich and beautiful, on full display here. I heard it briefly in the sea shanty medley the group did and wanted more. I’m in heaven now…
I agree. First time I heard this I was like is Rob lipsyncing? Then I learned Rob did study opera in college. Mind blown! I knew austin.had musical theater background so not as surprised about him. Both amazing!!!
Wow! Amazing tones! These two can cover anything!❤
Rob sounds so amazing in this song. They're both singing the final "Vincero" but Rob's voice just booms and takes over.
And I think they record in a studio but I'm guessing they're actually singing for the video with the recording playing (for timing). If not then Rob is quite a good actor with the facial expressions.
Was so looking forward to your reaction to this. Glad to see your mind was as blown as mine. This was amazing.
I was expecting an Opera parody. This blew me away! Amazing!
I know, right???? I was expecting one of two things: 1) The camera would turn around to show a Pavarotti-type belting out Rob's part, or 2) Suddenly, fiddles and guitars would break out and it would turn into a C/W parody of a classic aria. These guys may not be ready for La Scalla, but they did an impressive job.
Rob studied opera in college 15 yrs. ago! Austin is classical trained. Bought tears to my eyes and gave me chills. Speechless!
I am still speechless. I know they both have fantastic voices, but this knocks my socks off. Phenomenal! Great reaction!
I don't want to insult you, but I laughed so hard at your disbelief of Rob's voice. You should know how amazing these guys are by now. Don't be scared. You'll get over that after 10 or 12 more listens. Just go with it. Hope you recover your senses soon.
Like I knew they were amazing but this was so shocking lol i woke up this morning still shocked 🤣
That's actually them. They may sing country more than anything else, but most of the group also have experience singing other styles and are very, very good at more than just country and pop.
This was an experiment prompted by Austin. He was poking Rob a bit since he'd actually had some opera training. Rob is generally reviewed by real opera singers as having some real opera singer chops after this. I think of this as a gift from the team than can help us broaden our world view, much like you do on this channel, exploring new music! Vinchero!
Singing opera is the very best voice training. It teaches one to breathing and voice control. It commands discipline and clear pronunciation. If you can sing opera, you can sing anything!
Mind-blowing! I knew Rob was trained in opera and knowing his voice and perfect pitch I knew he would be good at it, but I most certainly didn't expect THIS! And of course, Austin is my all-time favourite voice and I always thought he could sing like this, just not like THIS! Amazing!
Perfect pitch you say! Is there a video out there of him naming all musical notes after hearing them ? If so please let me know. He has a great voice, but perfect pitch, now that's a reach. Words are important.
@@ratdad48 words are not as important as intent. Her intent was honest and in good nature. I will take that over perfect words any day.
@@ratdad48 Clearly you're not familiar with Rob. I forgive you. He's got a perfect pitch. If you knew his singing you would know that.
@@ratdad48 Also, what you are taking about is not pitch perfect, you are talking about perfect ear, that's a different thing. As you said, words are important.
Corina My comment has to do with his voice. Pitch perfect means either vocal or auditory. I mentioned both. I try to condense my comments. I do agree with Owen about your intent.....His singing prowess is subjective. Would you not agree? Perfect to whom? Unless 'everyone' agrees it perfect than its not perfect. However, I do agree he has a wonderful voice indeed!☺
Rob and Austin did a great job singing this beautiful masterpiece I see you were as shocked as I was it’s different but beautiful thank you again for the greatest reaction Rob is unbelievable in any song they sing take care my friend ❤️❤️❤️❤️👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻
I've been secretly enjoying watching the different reactions on reactors' faces the past twodays. You did not disappoint!
We know what you mean! 😆 Thanks Nick! 🖤🍟
Rob was trained in opera. He just seems to like country and fun more. I think any of them could do anything.
Actually from what I understand Rob was trained in Opera. They did an absolutely phenomenal job with this song. Truly enjoyed watching your reaction to this song.
We know you love “gospel Rob”, now introducing “opera Rob”!🎊
LOL... they got you with that title.... these guys can SING ANYTHING!
You’re not the only reactor who said this. They recognized Austin’s voice but Rob surprised the heck out of them. I was expecting to be rickrolled. Thought it might be a joke but nope. Rob studied opera in college. Austin was classically trained so they both can project. I expected it out of Austin but I’ve never heard Rob project like this….amazing!!! We all know Rob has a great voice but we’ve never quite heard him like this. Well, always something with these guys! I’ve missed you. Did you react to Brother? It’s a crazy one but they sound good as always. You’ll enjoy it! Great reaction!🥰😍
Wow 😳 i had no idea those two could sing like 😳
I have never been a fan of opera except maybe some Andrea Bocelli & a few others. But I have always appreciated the talent it takes to sing opera. I was pretty impressed with Rob & Austin's version of Nessun Dorma. I have heard this famous song done by Pavarotti. I think I was more surprised by Rob's range & powerful delivery than even Austin's. Pretty good for a couple of country boys! Nice to see them dressed up in suits & looking classy. Each guy in Home Free is super talented on his own & in another league from any other group.
I LOVE Andrea Bocelli. My 20 yr old (handicapped) son loves him too! We have "music battles" of any & all genres often, trying to play a better song than the other....
It's funny 😁 🥰
@@momD612 enjoy those precious moments MamaD.
@@williamwilkins3046 oh absolutely!! 🥰
this was so beautifully done
Your disbelief is my favourite part of the video😂
The most amazing thing I've seen in a long time!! I'm so.proud of them!!
They both took it to another level. It was mesmerizing ❤ Great stunned reaction🎉 I had the same reaction lol I love Home Free😊
BRAVO! BRAVO! BRAVO!
BEAUTIFUL MASTERPIECE!!
😳😱😳😱💜💜💜
They sound like The Three Tenors minus One. 😆 Well done, boys.
It’s a video. Austin is syncing his voice with Rob that’s why he looks at Rob to ensure they’re on point with the phrasing. Rob is lead tenor here
I figured it just looked so real lol
Awesome reaction, if you think back, Rob has actually given us glimpses of his amazing voice at different times, like the Boyz 2 Men song, Helplessly Hoping and How Great Thou Art. Rob is actually trained for this, he said it had been 15 years since he had sung opera, but it appears it came back well.
That was an incredible introduction to the classic of singing. To see where they are now is a testimony to who they are and the talent. God bless them both and the group 🙏
Is there ANYTHING these guys can’t sing??!! Words can’t even describe their vocal talent. Those “Home Free” guys are UNBELIEVABLE!!
the only thing better than hearing Austin and Rob sing this for the first time - is watching other people's reaction and realize we ALL felt the same way. 🙂 I hope they do more of this.
If this doesn't make tears we'll up and chills over your entire body. Rob and Austin are truly phenomenal. All I can say is I'm speechless. Can't believe how well they did this.💗
Rob Rob Rob. Who would have thunk it? Amazing.
You nailed it. Austin singing opera with an opera singer. Rob does sound here a bit like Pavarotti, which is high praise indeed.
PS - Like you, I was (somewhat) surprised by Rob. But only somewhat -- I have always thought he was in a way Home Free's "secret" weapon. Many took him for granted and underestimated him.
Ive had a blast watching people react to this. They are amazing
CAT GOT YOUR TONGUE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! You and Patrol Nation (Lowell) almost reacted the same. "TOTAL SHOCK". LOVE IT!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Try the three tenors singing Nessum Dorma to hear total opera you will love them
Rob was trained in a variety of music styles including opera. His voice instructor wanted him to choose opera as a career, but Rob didn't think he would enjoy opera as much as what he is doing now.
