This was such a fun experience. I'm a fan of the Home Free boys and we have talked about doing a tune together for a few years, THIS was the one that we agreed would be perfect! We gotta do this LIVE asap! #StopBullying #BeAGoodAHuman

Hey Mark Wills, those 2 kids with Down syndrome are testament of living life because I myself have that also, having Down syndrome is definitely and absolutely a gift of God.Even those is a cross to bear but we live it out and to share the beauty of it. There is a song that really sticks out to me from When we are Young by Adele: one of the line is: You look like a movie: pictures this: other people seeing us like movie but people we know don’t see us like a movie. Thanks.
Absolutely and definitely love those 2 having Downs syndrome in this: because I have that also. Long ago I made Anti bullying video at school at Tyngbrough ( IACS) definitely have tear while watching this because I am living with Downs syndrome.
I really love this!! I was one of those kids that got bullied every day for 6 years +! Thank you Home Free and friends for bringing bullying to the forefront 😍 We are all God’s children and are perfect in every way 🙏🏻
Our principal decided to play this song every morning before the announcement and I believe she single handedly influenced an entire generation. I love her
OMG! I cried every time when Mark Wills recorded “Don’t Laugh At Me.” … written by Allen Shamblin and Steve Seskin. I, myself, have been bullied by many kids when I was growing up. I was called a derogatory word rhymes with regard (R*Word), and everything in between. I have cerebral palsy and it hits really hard.
I am trying to start a fan page for home free. What I mean is where people can come and talk about home free and how they started listening to home free.
My daughter was a special needs young lady. She passed in 2011. She loved everyone unconditionally. That’s why she couldn’t understand it when she was teased and made fun of. I have to admit, luckily, most people just fell in love with her.I can still see her heartache from the small % of humans(?) who were so mean for no reason. I have never heard this song but it will now be played often. I had to be strong for her when the bullying would happen and could not let her see me cry for her. My pillow saw lots of ugly crying. RIP until we see each other soon. I love you Tara Maureen Brock!💕❤️💕❤️🥰🥰
Love to you. And your daughter. My brother is different, and we knew lotsa folk that were so pure and yeah, we judged in our idiocy, but there were no better folk to be with, their purity, and strength, and like this vid here... shows how strong their soul is. I think the bullies were malnourished, and hungry, and that is why they took food from the one they could intimidate and not get any repurcussions, what a difference when the kid gave them willingly and ... looked like he knew why they were mean. He gave them food, perhaps a lesson too, the food for the spirit, like Jesus would have gleefully given to any who hungered, this is just food after all, but the lesson, and the end, I love it.... They don't have to be mean anymore, they did to eat... but a gift.... when needed, ... breaks that and teaches that God comes in many forms. Give that back when ya can, but most of all, remember, and think on that. Turn other cheek and all, well to a degree, but like I teach my kids, whenever, like the red cross motto: "Whomesoever you see in distress, recognize in them a fellow man." I love you Sherri. God Bless you.
Such a strong mother for a strong daughter! I'm sorry she passed but you sure made her life amazing. I was a special education tutor for years and the parents who were kind were the best. I know she's smiling down from above watching over you Sherry.
Thank you all so much!!! My daughter was bullied when she was in the 7th grade. The bullies knocked her out on the bleachers. She fell down them, and she is now learning disabled. She has front lobe brain damage and multiple injuries to her back, neck , shoulder out of socket. My daughters life is forever changed. The kids that injured her had nothing done to them. So thank you and God Bless each and everyone of you.
Boy this one really hit home. I was born with cerebral palsy and was bullied for about the first 30 years of my life; including being beat up, having food thrown on me and people imitating the way I walked. I finally came to realize people fear what they don't understand. And that the sooner we learn to forgive the sooner we will start to heal.
Yes I agree... Some of us have limitation that can be seen..and even the most "beautiful" have limitations that are are well hidden. .but generally can be heard or felt by those they look down on as less than them...perhaps they are the truly unfortunate ones... 🌿🌿🌿
In high school, administrators took the mentality of "kids will be kids, they need to learn to deal with it. " so a few of us took it upon ourselves to protect the disabled and the "different" people in the school. It was wrong what we were doing to the bullies, but it was worse that the administration was doing nothing about the far worse things they were doing to others . Thankfully by the end of my grade 11 year, all i had to do was walk up to them and say "they are with me" and the buillies would back off. My wife is one of the people I protected in high school, and im still friends with at least the ones that came to hang out with me for our lunch break.
Oh my... this one is going to make me cry. Even though I was an adult out of school already when the original song was released, having grown up the outcast by my peers for reasons that I never understood, the message of this song brought back all kinds of memories and hit me hard. Edit after watching: I swear, Mark sounds exactly the same if not better after all of these years! What a wonderful rendition and a great cause to support.
Mark Wills is a baritone for his type of his vocal. What about this: wherever you are tonight by david nail, collaborate with Eil Jacobson from Voiceplay to take full lead, collaborate with Kevin Oulsa from Penatatonix will used his lower register as a light lyric tenor will used his 3rd octave with his runs or riffs transition into mixed with light 4th octave register used head in background, Tim Foust will used his chest with different depth for the bassline, high harmony by: Adam Chance, Rob Lundquit,Austin Brown.
My heart has officially exploded with pride! Mark Wills and Home Free, you kicked this out of the park! Such a beautiful song, means so much for so many! Jenna Lee did an awesome job! And Nate the great? My son is my hero! So much pride and love. Thank you . 💖
What about this: History in the Making by Darius Rucker, collaborate with Eil Jacobson from Voiceplay to take full lead with is little bit of rustic and in the middle of twang with mixed with his higher and lower register, Tim Foust will used his chest for the bassline, high harmony by: Adam Chance, Austin Brown, Rob Lundquit.
As a person who was bullied severely in grade school..this song was one that got me through many nights lying in my room crying myself to sleep as I listened to it. Thank you Mark Wills for this beautiful song and I am so glad, that my favorite Vocal group Home Free did this cover with you. This is and always will be such a beautiful and powerful song.
Had a friend in school who was bullied just because she had epilepsy. I always stood up for her but the boys were unrelenting. Now at our 50 year class reunion they are still apologizing. Great song HomeFree 🎵. Love the message that is needed now more than ever. Thank you 😊🥰💖
I have a seizure condition and was also bullied in school, so I know what your friend went through. I was fortunate to have someone like you who stood up for me, too.We have been friends ever since then.
All through school I was bullied. And i hung out with a bunch of the "handicapped" kids some had learning issues some had physical impairments some had downs. One of them Kieth i think he had Cerebral palsy or something he had trouble speaking and had to use wheel chair ( couldn't use hands or legs well) loved telling dirty jokes! Boy once he got his talking computer he went to town cracking dirty jokes at lunch left n right and just laughing his butt off. They were the real cool kids.
I have a seizure disorder. I was bullied in school and now when I see classmates they talk to me. I've never went to class reunions because of being bullied. I can relate to your friend and this song.
As a person with epilepsy too I want to say thank you, thank you for standing up for your friend. I also had a friend that would stand up for me if bullies decided to pick on me. I really appreciate that you did this for your friend and others.
Omg I've got tissues ready. One of my favorite songs. I also have a 10 year old daughter who is a 27 week preemie, but also autistic. She has dealt with bullying the last few years at school and kids in the neighborhood. Has also had adults just stare at her. I remind her everyday what an amazing person she is. She was surprised that I also dealt with bullying at her age. I almost took my life when I was 15 years due to being bullied. 😭 This song is so needed right now. Thank you. Can't wait to play this for her when she gets home from school.
My oldest daughter is an adult with several mental challenges and this is one of her "theme songs". It expresses what she was never able to say to her bullies. "Standing Outside the Fire" is another one.
( even it not country but it the vibe) What about this: Sound of the Bugle by Bryan Adams, they absolutely ace it, perfect lead is Adam Chance will used his heavy on his rustic and little bit of raspyness. High harmony by Austin Brown, Rob Lundquit, Tim Foust will used his chest with different depth for the bassline.
Didn't even make it through the first verse before the tears starting pouring out. Y'all hit home with every single song, but the ones like this just renew my faith in humanity.
Oh this hits hard. My cousin Stephen died in August. He was 68 years old. He was born with Down Syndrome at a time when the expectations for people like him were very low. He was sweet and stubborn and with the support of family and friends he lived a life that absolutely exceeded those expectations. He deserved respect, just like the people in the video. Thanks for putting them in the spotlight.
What about this: Write It On My Heart by Gabby Barrett, absolutely and definitely we want collaborate with Rachel Womack to take full lead with her light connected engage core will used her head and chest register, collaborate with Kevin Oulsa from Penatatonix for backing vocal with the blend of the lead, High harmony by: Austin Brown, Adam Chance, Rob Lundquit, Tim Foust will used his chest for the bassline.
I was bullied for so long while growing up, and this resonates so deeply within me. God pursued me in my pain & brokenness and healed me from my pain. I know I have value through Him!!
@@shilohmjh7628 Oh, okay. Thank you so much for the immense love and support, I know you must be surprised to receive a message from me, right? I hope you don’t stop listening to my music. Well, I don’t chat often on TH-cam due to my busy schedules, we can actually talk more on Google chat. Do you have Google chat installed on your mobile phone?
I certainly wouldn't want to show ANY KINDNESS to those who teased me because of my last name because if someone is teasing or bullying you in anyway on a daily basis, they DO NOT DESERVE ANY KINDNESS, COMPASSION, OR EMPATHY! They deserve harsh punishment to teach them a lesson! Maybe the bullies need some public humiliation in front of the whole school, like embarrassing baby pictures shown on the daily morning news program or being forced to clean the boy's urinals in the bathroom with toothbrushes, in their underwear while their victims film them on their cell phones to post on social media later with the caption, "This is what happens to bullies at our school!" Oh and make sure to get the news crews involved, especially the National News programs!
I remember how I cried when I first heard this song when I was a young adult. I was that teenage mother. Thankfully I had tons of support from family and almost 30 years later....my son is one of my biggest sources of joy in life still!
@@MINGIRL1979 Im truly sorry you had to deal with such issues, and continue to feel like revenge and more torturous humiliation is the best way to get the "dont bully" message across. Hopefylly someday, there won't be any need for songs like this one to spread the message.
What about this: livin part of life by Eric Church, collaborate with Lyane Stein from Voiceplay to take full lead will used his pitch equalizer sounds like Eric Church for his clearer tone, high harmony by: Adam Chance, Rob Lundquit, Austin Brown, Tim Foust will used his chest for the bassline.
Thank you all for such a passionate song against bullying, on behalf of all who're being bullied and have been bullied. Bullying's inexcusable. Yet, it took me a long time to realize all bullies project their pain onto others.
I think you just explained why many of us were confused by the video. Would have liked the bullies to have returned the kindness. Let's presume that was to happen in the near future.
Hurt people hurt other people. I had to learn that lesson when I grew up. I was bullied and became a bully myself. I'm thankful I had a chance to mature and realize that I needed a change of heart. For me, the only way that happened is through Salvation.
@@johntucker4296 what was so confusing aout the video? the first step is to get the bully to stop being a bully. and that happened. one of the first lines of the song goes you don't have to be my friend, just don't make me cry. the bullies basically did return the kindness. they smiled at him, the did the hand thing that kids do between friends, and they didn't do anything to hurt his feelings. That's HUGE!!! This is a hallmark movie version of an attempt to show how a little kindness can go a long way.
As a retired teacher, I protected all my kids from bullies on the playground! Made me feel so sorry they didn't get a chance to really know how special those kids they bullied were!
You touched my old buises and memories with your beautiful song and video. Thank you so much for easing my sixty year old hurts. God's love is so good, bless you all.
What a touching story! My youngest sister has downs syndrome....what a blessing these PEOPLE are!! Thank you for putting this video together!! I don't get emotional....but this is....oooohh! ( crying!) Amen...God does look at us as equal! Thank Him for that!
I about cried 😢. Bullying can be life altering. The devastation is real. My son is on the Autism spectrum and I pray he does not fall victim. Sadly if he did I don't know that he would realize what was happening. Thank u Home Free for standing up for great causes. #homefries
This video should be played in every single class for the rest of time. Cause ain’t nobody perfect. I love this message and the song. I literally cried. Thank you so much may GOD BLESS YOU all 😂💯🔥
This came out when I was an adult but it was literally the song of my childhood. Thank you Mark Wills for putting this out 24 years ago and thank you Home Free for introducing it to a new generation.
BEAUTIFUl!!! I started crying at the first chorus!! Such a timely song. We all need to stand up to bullying there is NO place for it in this world!! Thank you guys for doing this! 💗
What about this: If It Hadn’t Been For Love by The Steeldrivers, absolutely and definitely we want Austin Brown to take full lead with us rustic and manliness tambour with his mixed of head and mixed, collaborate with Lizzy McAvoy will used her light and connected core will used his falsetto mixed with chest that blend with the lead, collaborate with Scott Hyoing from Penatatonix for his lower register will used his 3rd octave with Adam Chance will used his lower octave like somewhat heavy on 2nd octave with Scott Hyoing, collaborate with Jeffery East will used his just his higher register with the high harmony by: Rob Lundquit collaborate with Eil Jacobson from Voiceplay.
I've always identified with this song. I was bullied in school and it has affected me my entire life. Thank you, Mark, for singing it originally. And thank you, Home Free for bringing it back again. Y'all are really awesome.
What about this: Stay little Longer by Brother Osborne, collaborate with Geoff from Voiceplay for his little bit heavy on his mid 2nd octave with some 3rd octave for mixing with his kinda low 4th octave not so high but just right, high harmony by: Adam Chance, Rob Lundquit, Austin Brown, Tim Foust will used his chest for the bassline.
This song is the anthem for every person ever bullied. Still brings tears to my eyes. I became suicidal at the age of ten from being bullied at school. All these years later, my mind is still blown from one of the bullies asked me about surgery and how to deal with it. Most bullies are trying to cope with their own pain, and the only way they know how to deal is by causing others pain. High school was even worse and I don’t know how anyone can say it’s the best years of their lives. Mine was college and getting out of that hell hole. My friend Kate died a few years ago. This was one of her favorite songs and I know she’d approve of this one, too.
Hello dear hope my comment didn’t sound as a form of privacy invasion? Your comment tells of a wonderful woman with a beautiful heart of gold. I don’t normally write on comment section but I don’t think you deserve this compliment 🌹 if you don’t mind can we be friends??
Mark Wills sounds just as amazing as ever. Home Free sounds amazing as always and again managed to have me bawling. As a survivor of bullying and a suicide attempt because of bullying this song has always had special meaning to me. Thank you for being such beautiful souls.
This was beautiful guys! Love that you included Nate and Janelle as well! October is also Down Syndrome Awareness!! PERFECT timing! Thank you so much for doing this song!! 💙💛💙💛

Having a special needs son this song hits so close to home. You live that child with everything you have and wouldn't change a thing. They are here to teach us and show us how to love unconditionally. Thank you so much for this beautiful song
I remember when this song first came out, it meant a lot to me then. I never thought it could've gotten any better than the original release. You, Home Free and Mark Wills, just knocked it out of the park with this version.
All through school, I was bullied. I was an adult when this song came out and it always brought me to tears because the message resonated with me so much. I always thought, "I'm not asking you to like me, just leave me alone or ignore me". Thank you for this beautiful version and video!
This song holds a special place in my heart because I was that kid growing up. I sang this song in a school play my freshman year of high school. If I could hit the like button a thousand times I would.
Another mumma watching this with her babies and unashamedly sobbing out loud. I do my best every day to hold kindness and inclusivity up as the highest of qualities my whole family can continue to aspire to share in all moments. This song will be played so often to remind me how wide the ripples of love spread. Everyone involved in this collaborative masterpiece is amazing.
I remember when I was in kindergarten, this song was played in classrooms all across my school, at the same time on the same day. Posters that all said "don't laugh at me" were put up in all the hallways. Hearing you guys cover this unlocked a core memory that I forgot I had, and y'all absolutely nailed the song.
What about this: I'm in Love with a Woman by Lindsey Alexander, definitely and absolutely we want Adam Chance to take full lead will used his higher and some lower register for his mixed and chest equilibrium, high harmony by: Austin Brown, Rob Lundquit, Tim Foust will used his chest for the bassline
This is such a beautiful song. Thank you so much it means a lot to me personally. I lost my entire left leg almost six years ago, I'm 43 and the amount of belittling, torment and abuse I get from adults breaks my heart. I don't wear a prosthesis as my type is very big and cumbersome, so it's easier for me to get around on crutches. Yes I look different, but I'm still a human being! I still laugh, cry, defend and debate. Children are the complete opposiite to adults. They come up to me and ask questions like "did your leg fall off when you were running" because they're curious! I'm happy to answer any questions children, or adults may have. Knowledge is power and ignorence is pain and hurt. Children are sponges that absorb EVERYTHING around them. So if they're brought up surrounded by people who make hurtful, nasty remarks about people who look different, be it disability, race, even clothing , they will grow up with the same mindset! WE ARE ALL HUMAN BEINGS!! Each and every single person deserves the right to be treated with respect and kindness. What you give out you get back ten fold. So next time you see someone who doesn't fit the sterotypical "normal" person remember we have hearts, we have a mind, we have souls....we are humans. Treat EVERYONE the way you want to be treated. BTW, found you guys a while ago but didn't start really istening til the last few months. You're amazing, as performers and as human beings. Your vids have lifted my spirits when they were low and always puts a smile on my face. I love behind the scenes and your from the vault series! THANK YOU FROM THE BOTTOM OF MY HEART! Peace and Love from Australia🥰
🍟 As a Grandma to an Autistic Granddaughter and a Down Syndrome Granddaughter this struck a very deep chord for me. My Autistic sweetie was recently 'expelled' from her Homeschooling program because she had missed too many days. Her Mom was going through breast cancer surgery & chemo, so yes she missed some days - but still managed to get all A's. Life sucks sometimes. This song and video speaks volumes for those who can't! Thank all of you - it's a real gift. 🍟💖
Hello Barbara hope my comment didn’t sound as a form of privacy invasion? Your comment tells of a wonderful woman with a beautiful heart of gold. I don’t normally write on comment section but I don’t think you deserve this compliment 🌹 if you don’t mind can we be friends??

I was just talking to my 17 yr old daughter about this song this morning. Should be brought up to all school aged kids.

And Home Free, Awesome as always!!
This was beautiful! I love the message. We all need to be reminded that we are ALL God's children and should be treated with respect and dignity. God Bless Home Free and Mark Willis for being a voice for this message. Love you all!
@Mark Wills Hello from deep South Texas where it feels like early summer! I am late into the game of recognizing the wonderful music of Home Free, but am making up by seeing TH-cam videos that enrich my day. Thanks to all of you for your work in making your music sound effortless!
Stunning as always. I'm so glad you guys aren't afraid to shine some light on such difficult subjects. It truly speaks to what kind of people you are - kind souls ❤️

Just the thought of someone mistreating my Down's nephew brings me to tears, but the ending shows exactly how he would handle it. Such a sweet soul! Thank you so much for this!!
I was bullied by all of my sisters, it started after my mom got me home from the hospital. I have 5 sister, I am the baby. My 4th oldest sister would drop me n my head trying to kill me. I was a sickly baby and my mom had to focus on me more. The other 4 sisters would call me names and treat me so bad. When I started kindergarten the bulling got worse, I had school kids picking on me, push me around and hit me. This went on all through my elementary, middle, and high school years. After I got out of school I thought the bulling would stop, but it didn’t. My sisters kept on picking on me. The didn’t want me around at all. When my parents would make my sisters take me places they would treat me really bad. I am 57 and the bulling has never stopped. I finally realized, going into my 26th year of marriage, that what my husband was doing to me was severe bulling. Now I am stuck here with him because I have no job, no money, no family and no friends. Bulling hurts. Some kill themselves to get away from it. Some of us have bad depression and anxiety. Some go through it their entire life. 😢💔
I loved this song from day one I was bullied in school simply because I grew up poor and couldn't afford to buy the cool clothes etc I never told my mom until about 5 years Ago ( I'm now 48) it was a hard time but it contributed to who I am today. This song will always have a special place in my heart.. Great choice ya'll!!!!!
Oh boy! This song has always been special! As soon as I saw the title I knew Home Free had plans for that very important message and I didn't even know it was anti-bullying month! Mark Wills sounded just as beautiful as when he released the song originally. My only complaint is that I'm all stuffed up and can't breathe through my nose because I was in tears before the 1st line was finished! Thank You all for spreading the word and standing up for the many people who suffer needlessly from bullying! This is why we love you so much! In a world full of roses, be a sunflower!🌻❤
Oh my goodness!!!!! Absolutely beautiful!!!! Once again, thank you Home Free and Mark Wills!!!! This was so incredibly powerful and just so perfect! Thank you so much for the message, the harmonies and the absolutely magnificent song!!!! 💜
Yes, I saw first hand the damage words can do to others. Children and adults with developmental disabilities have so very much to give, once you give them a chance. I love the song and it has touched my heart - where it will remain. Thank you from someone who worked with these marvelous people for over 40 years. This video is awesome ❤️
The original has always been a favourite of mine, but this new version really hits you in the feels. Made me cry watching. Your daughters voice is amazing as well. You should record a duet with her. Thanks for all you do and all the wonderful music.

I love this song . Mark did an awesome job when he made this song . It always got me teary eyed . This version with an awesome group of guys is absolutly BEAUTIFUL . Love you all .
This song is spectacular. Very close to my heart, I was heavily bullied in school and at home. I was 14 when this song came out and this song got me through a lot. Thank you so much Mark and Home Free. I hope this song continues to touch lives for many more years to come.
Being a mom of a young lady with DS, thank you for seeing the couple in your video as capable individuals, and exposing goodness as contagious. Individuals with different abilities are perfect and see everyone through innocent loving eyes. We should all want to be like them!
I knew when I clicked on this I'd cry, and seeing the video, I did, like a baby as a 34 year old man. I just love the message of this song and always have.
As a Green Beret" - Fort Bragg--- Liberty Trained Combat Veteran", I have seen it all.... This Song" is beautiful . This is What America really is.. Dont Let the Fools in Congress" Sway your Beliefs!!!! Stand Strong People........ Its who we are

This song has been one of my all time favorites for years. I love your voice.
Hey Mark Wills, those 2 kids with Down syndrome are testament of living life because I myself have that also, having Down syndrome is definitely and absolutely a gift of God.Even those is a cross to bear but we live it out and to share the beauty of it. There is a song that really sticks out to me from When we are Young by Adele: one of the line is: You look like a movie: pictures this: other people seeing us like movie but people we know don’t see us like a movie. Thanks.
Mark Wills is the best and so thankful he collaborated with us on this special song. Hope y’all enjoy this one as much as we do.
I do Rob! 😍🎶🎙- thanks to all of you! This messasge is so needed! 🤗🙋♀️💪😘
It is beautiful,makes me cry.
Absolutely and definitely love those 2 having Downs syndrome in this: because I have that also. Long ago I made Anti bullying video at school at Tyngbrough ( IACS) definitely have tear while watching this because I am living with Downs syndrome.
It is a beautiful video.
I really love this!! I was one of those kids that got bullied every day for 6 years +! Thank you Home Free and friends for bringing bullying to the forefront 😍 We are all God’s children and are perfect in every way 🙏🏻
Our principal decided to play this song every morning before the announcement and I believe she single handedly influenced an entire generation. I love her
So sorry for the infringe on your privacy. Beautiful song. Hello
OMG! I cried every time when Mark Wills recorded “Don’t Laugh At Me.” … written by Allen Shamblin and Steve Seskin. I, myself, have been bullied by many kids when I was growing up. I was called a derogatory word rhymes with regard (R*Word), and everything in between. I have cerebral palsy and it hits really hard.
I wish every school would play this song before morning announcements
The girl who is doing sign language she's absolutely amazing
Who else loves home free?
We all do, their new songs covers are our medicine.
I love HomeFree 🙂
I am trying to start a fan page for home free. What I mean is where people can come and talk about home free and how they started listening to home free.
THE BEST ❤️
Home Free😍💖
My daughter was a special needs young lady. She passed in 2011. She loved everyone unconditionally. That’s why she couldn’t understand it when she was teased and made fun of. I have to admit, luckily, most people just fell in love with her.I can still see her heartache from the small % of humans(?) who were so mean for no reason. I have never heard this song but it will now be played often. I had to be strong for her when the bullying would happen and could not let her see me cry for her. My pillow saw lots of ugly crying. RIP until we see each other soon. I love you Tara Maureen Brock!💕❤️💕❤️🥰🥰
Hello Sherri. How are you doing?
Love to you. And your daughter. My brother is different, and we knew lotsa folk that were so pure and yeah, we judged in our idiocy, but there were no better folk to be with, their purity, and strength, and like this vid here... shows how strong their soul is. I think the bullies were malnourished, and hungry, and that is why they took food from the one they could intimidate and not get any repurcussions, what a difference when the kid gave them willingly and ... looked like he knew why they were mean. He gave them food, perhaps a lesson too, the food for the spirit, like Jesus would have gleefully given to any who hungered, this is just food after all, but the lesson, and the end, I love it.... They don't have to be mean anymore, they did to eat... but a gift.... when needed, ... breaks that and teaches that God comes in many forms. Give that back when ya can, but most of all, remember, and think on that. Turn other cheek and all, well to a degree, but like I teach my kids, whenever, like the red cross motto: "Whomesoever you see in distress, recognize in them a fellow man."
I love you Sherri.
God Bless you.
Such a strong mother for a strong daughter! I'm sorry she passed but you sure made her life amazing. I was a special education tutor for years and the parents who were kind were the best. I know she's smiling down from above watching over you Sherry.
Absolutely amazing that your daughter teaches us even after she is gone. I just can't imagine how much she has loved ❤️
24 years later, this song still makes me ugly cry, especially hearing the Home Free harmonies. Absolutely breathtaking!
"The Balloon Song" gets me every time too.
Meeee too!
this has Me past cryin' to outright bawlin'....
What did you learn?
I'm right there with you and by the other comments I'm seeing, we are not alone.
Thank you all so much!!! My daughter was bullied when she was in the 7th grade. The bullies knocked her out on the bleachers. She fell down them, and she is now learning disabled. She has front lobe brain damage and multiple injuries to her back, neck , shoulder out of socket. My daughters life is forever changed. The kids that injured her had nothing done to them. So thank you and God Bless each and everyone of you.
Boy this one really hit home. I was born with cerebral palsy and was bullied for about the first 30 years of my life; including being beat up, having food thrown on me and people imitating the way I walked. I finally came to realize people fear what they don't understand. And that the sooner we learn to forgive the sooner we will start to heal.
I'd rather just have my bullies punished in a very public, and very humiliating way! Like 6:00 evening news public!
Yes I agree...
Some of us have limitation that can be seen..and even the most "beautiful" have limitations that are are well hidden. .but generally can be heard or felt by those they look down on as less than them...perhaps they are the truly unfortunate ones...

@Gary Phillip hello
In high school, administrators took the mentality of "kids will be kids, they need to learn to deal with it. " so a few of us took it upon ourselves to protect the disabled and the "different" people in the school.
It was wrong what we were doing to the bullies, but it was worse that the administration was doing nothing about the far worse things they were doing to others . Thankfully by the end of my grade 11 year, all i had to do was walk up to them and say "they are with me" and the buillies would back off.
My wife is one of the people I protected in high school, and im still friends with at least the ones that came to hang out with me for our lunch break.
Oh my... this one is going to make me cry. Even though I was an adult out of school already when the original song was released, having grown up the outcast by my peers for reasons that I never understood, the message of this song brought back all kinds of memories and hit me hard.
Edit after watching: I swear, Mark sounds exactly the same if not better after all of these years! What a wonderful rendition and a great cause to support.
Mark Wills is a baritone for his type of his vocal.
What about this: wherever you are tonight by david nail, collaborate with Eil Jacobson from Voiceplay to take full lead, collaborate with Kevin Oulsa from Penatatonix will used his lower register as a light lyric tenor will used his 3rd octave with his runs or riffs transition into mixed with light 4th octave register used head in background, Tim Foust will used his chest with different depth for the bassline, high harmony by: Adam Chance, Rob Lundquit,Austin Brown.
People just bully to hurt people. Mainly bc they r hurting themselves and refuse to show those feelings so it will manifest into anger at anyone.
@Captain Marvel’s Son You are loved
Me, too. You aren't alone.
Same here darling you are not alone ❤
My heart has officially exploded with pride! Mark Wills and Home Free, you kicked this out of the park! Such a beautiful song, means so much for so many! Jenna Lee did an awesome job! And Nate the great? My son is my hero! So much pride and love. Thank you . 💖
What about this: History in the Making by Darius Rucker, collaborate with Eil Jacobson from Voiceplay to take full lead with is little bit of rustic and in the middle of twang with mixed with his higher and lower register, Tim Foust will used his chest for the bassline, high harmony by: Adam Chance, Austin Brown, Rob Lundquit.
As a person who was bullied severely in grade school..this song was one that got me through many nights lying in my room crying myself to sleep as I listened to it. Thank you Mark Wills for this beautiful song and I am so glad, that my favorite Vocal group Home Free did this cover with you. This is and always will be such a beautiful and powerful song.
My man 💪
I did the opposite. I got bullied horrifically but I find this so cringe. I preferred the raw anger of metal.
Had a friend in school who was bullied just because she had epilepsy. I always stood up for her but the boys were unrelenting. Now at our 50 year class reunion they are still apologizing. Great song HomeFree 🎵. Love the message that is needed now more than ever. Thank you 😊🥰💖
I have a seizure condition and was also bullied in school, so I know what your friend went through. I was fortunate to have someone like you who stood up for me, too.We have been friends ever since then.
All through school I was bullied. And i hung out with a bunch of the "handicapped" kids some had learning issues some had physical impairments some had downs. One of them Kieth i think he had Cerebral palsy or something he had trouble speaking and had to use wheel chair ( couldn't use hands or legs well) loved telling dirty jokes! Boy once he got his talking computer he went to town cracking dirty jokes at lunch left n right and just laughing his butt off. They were the real cool kids.
I have a seizure disorder. I was bullied in school and now when I see classmates they talk to me. I've never went to class reunions because of being bullied. I can relate to your friend and this song.
As a person with epilepsy too I want to say thank you, thank you for standing up for your friend. I also had a friend that would stand up for me if bullies decided to pick on me. I really appreciate that you did this for your friend and others.
@@kristindunstan172 we are still friends but she lives about a thousand miles away now. Only get to see her at our reunions. 🥰
Omg I've got tissues ready. One of my favorite songs. I also have a 10 year old daughter who is a 27 week preemie, but also autistic. She has dealt with bullying the last few years at school and kids in the neighborhood. Has also had adults just stare at her. I remind her everyday what an amazing person she is. She was surprised that I also dealt with bullying at her age. I almost took my life when I was 15 years due to being bullied. 😭 This song is so needed right now. Thank you. Can't wait to play this for her when she gets home from school.
GOD bless you and your sweet daughter!!
@@aprilanderson6432 thank you
I was bullied as a teenager for how I looked and dressed. It was hell on earth! I would never want to relive my teenaged years!
“Don’t get your pleasure from my pain.” I love that line. Beautiful song and video.💞
Hello Funo..
Yes I love that line as well. I was the bully's nemesis in school. I was glad I was blessed with size to be able to!!
Yes, there was too much of that when I was growing up, and too much of it I seen as well.
Never thought modern artist would revisit a song that shaped my whole world. Thank you so much!
My oldest daughter is an adult with several mental challenges and this is one of her "theme songs". It expresses what she was never able to say to her bullies. "Standing Outside the Fire" is another one.
Omg both of these songs was mine as well! I have Epilepsy and Aspergers and had a rough childhood.
( even it not country but it the vibe) What about this: Sound of the Bugle by Bryan Adams, they absolutely ace it, perfect lead is Adam Chance will used his heavy on his rustic and little bit of raspyness. High harmony by Austin Brown, Rob Lundquit, Tim Foust will used his chest with different depth for the bassline.
Didn't even make it through the first verse before the tears starting pouring out. Y'all hit home with every single song, but the ones like this just renew my faith in humanity.
I had the honor of meeting Mark Wills and Josh Gracin. I even have a picture of them, my daughter and myself.
I don't think I've cried this much over this song in a LONG time!
Oh this hits hard. My cousin Stephen died in August. He was 68 years old. He was born with Down Syndrome at a time when the expectations for people like him were very low. He was sweet and stubborn and with the support of family and friends he lived a life that absolutely exceeded those expectations. He deserved respect, just like the people in the video. Thanks for putting them in the spotlight.
Way to get me crying at 4am. This song really hit home. Thank you so much to everyone involved.
What about this: Write It On My Heart by Gabby Barrett, absolutely and definitely we want collaborate with Rachel Womack to take full lead with her light connected engage core will used her head and chest register, collaborate with Kevin Oulsa from Penatatonix for backing vocal with the blend of the lead, High harmony by: Austin Brown, Adam Chance, Rob Lundquit, Tim Foust will used his chest for the bassline.
I teach this song to elementary kids … empathy is sorely missing today but kids naturally understand!
Hello, how are you doing today? Thanks for your love and support❤️😊❤😊😊
Karen, some kids aren't taught to care about other people's feelings. It's not your fault.
I was bullied for so long while growing up, and this resonates so deeply within me. God pursued me in my pain & brokenness and healed me from my pain. I know I have value through Him!!
Hello, how are you doing today? Thanks for your love and support❤️😊❤
@@markwillsmusic. I’m doing well. Thank you for asking. How are you? BTW, your voice is like silk. God has truly blessed you!
@@shilohmjh7628 Oh, okay. Thank you so much for the immense love and support, I know you must be surprised to receive a message from me, right? I hope you don’t stop listening to my music. Well, I don’t chat often on TH-cam due to my busy schedules, we can actually talk more on Google chat. Do you have Google chat installed on your mobile phone?
@@shilohmjh7628hello are you still there??
Kindness makes life worth the struggles. What a beautiful song and video. 🥰🤗 Thank you all so much! Peace!!
Great message... love it ..
I certainly wouldn't want to show ANY KINDNESS to those who teased me because of my last name because if someone is teasing or bullying you in anyway on a daily basis, they DO NOT DESERVE ANY KINDNESS, COMPASSION, OR EMPATHY! They deserve harsh punishment to teach them a lesson! Maybe the bullies need some public humiliation in front of the whole school, like embarrassing baby pictures shown on the daily morning news program or being forced to clean the boy's urinals in the bathroom with toothbrushes, in their underwear while their victims film them on their cell phones to post on social media later with the caption, "This is what happens to bullies at our school!" Oh and make sure to get the news crews involved, especially the National News programs!
I remember how I cried when I first heard this song when I was a young adult. I was that teenage mother. Thankfully I had tons of support from family and almost 30 years later....my son is one of my biggest sources of joy in life still!
@@MINGIRL1979 Im truly sorry you had to deal with such issues, and continue to feel like revenge and more torturous humiliation is the best way to get the "dont bully" message across. Hopefylly someday, there won't be any need for songs like this one to spread the message.
What about this: livin part of life by Eric Church, collaborate with Lyane Stein from Voiceplay to take full lead will used his pitch equalizer sounds like Eric Church for his clearer tone, high harmony by: Adam Chance, Rob Lundquit, Austin Brown, Tim Foust will used his chest for the bassline.
Thank you all for such a passionate song against bullying, on behalf of all who're being bullied and have been bullied. Bullying's inexcusable. Yet, it took me a long time to realize all bullies project their pain onto others.
I think you just explained why many of us were confused by the video. Would have liked the bullies to have returned the kindness. Let's presume that was to happen in the near future.
Hurt people hurt other people. I had to learn that lesson when I grew up. I was bullied and became a bully myself. I'm thankful I had a chance to mature and realize that I needed a change of heart. For me, the only way that happened is through Salvation.
@@johntucker4296 what was so confusing aout the video? the first step is to get the bully to stop being a bully. and that happened. one of the first lines of the song goes you don't have to be my friend, just don't make me cry. the bullies basically did return the kindness. they smiled at him, the did the hand thing that kids do between friends, and they didn't do anything to hurt his feelings. That's HUGE!!! This is a hallmark movie version of an attempt to show how a little kindness can go a long way.
As a retired teacher, I protected all my kids from bullies on the playground! Made me feel so sorry they didn't get a chance to really know how special those kids they bullied were!
You touched my old buises and memories with your beautiful song and video. Thank you so much for easing my sixty year old hurts. God's love is so good, bless you all.
Hello Judith. How are you doing?
I can only imagine how many people can relate to this. I sure can. Much love to ALL in the video and all who listened. ❤️
I am one of those people
What a touching story!
My youngest sister has downs syndrome....what a blessing these PEOPLE are!! Thank you for putting this video together!! I don't get emotional....but this is....oooohh! ( crying!) Amen...God does look at us as equal! Thank Him for that!
Thank you 😊!! I have Down syndrome
I about cried 😢. Bullying can be life altering. The devastation is real. My son is on the Autism spectrum and I pray he does not fall victim. Sadly if he did I don't know that he would realize what was happening. Thank u Home Free for standing up for great causes. #homefries

This came out when I was an adult but it was literally the song of my childhood. Thank you Mark Wills for putting this out 24 years ago and thank you Home Free for introducing it to a new generation.
BEAUTIFUl!!! I started crying at the first chorus!! Such a timely song. We all need to stand up to bullying there is NO place for it in this world!! Thank you guys for doing this! 💗
What about this: If It Hadn’t Been For Love by The Steeldrivers, absolutely and definitely we want Austin Brown to take full lead with us rustic and manliness tambour with his mixed of head and mixed, collaborate with Lizzy McAvoy will used her light and connected core will used his falsetto mixed with chest that blend with the lead, collaborate with Scott Hyoing from Penatatonix for his lower register will used his 3rd octave with Adam Chance will used his lower octave like somewhat heavy on 2nd octave with Scott Hyoing, collaborate with Jeffery East will used his just his higher register with the high harmony by: Rob Lundquit collaborate with Eil Jacobson from Voiceplay.

Hello Sandra. How are you doing?

It made me very happy to see Mark's daughter sing with him. This song will always be a favorite of mine ❤
I was very happy she could join us as well! Thanks Juanita
@@MarkWillsMusic your daughter has a beautiful voice this version brought me to tears as you know I love the original as well
I was wondering if that was his daughter!
This song is the anthem for every person ever bullied. Still brings tears to my eyes. I became suicidal at the age of ten from being bullied at school. All these years later, my mind is still blown from one of the bullies asked me about surgery and how to deal with it. Most bullies are trying to cope with their own pain, and the only way they know how to deal is by causing others pain. High school was even worse and I don’t know how anyone can say it’s the best years of their lives. Mine was college and getting out of that hell hole. My friend Kate died a few years ago. This was one of her favorite songs and I know she’d approve of this one, too.

Hello how are you doing?
Having a special needs son this song hits so close to home. You live that child with everything you have and wouldn't change a thing. They are here to teach us and show us how to love unconditionally. Thank you so much for this beautiful song
I remember when this song first came out, it meant a lot to me then. I never thought it could've gotten any better than the original release. You, Home Free and Mark Wills, just knocked it out of the park with this version.
All through school, I was bullied. I was an adult when this song came out and it always brought me to tears because the message resonated with me so much. I always thought, "I'm not asking you to like me, just leave me alone or ignore me". Thank you for this beautiful version and video!
Hello Elizabeth. How are you doing?
This song holds a special place in my heart because I was that kid growing up. I sang this song in a school play my freshman year of high school. If I could hit the like button a thousand times I would.

Hello Megan..
Hello Megan..
Another mumma watching this with her babies and unashamedly sobbing out loud. I do my best every day to hold kindness and inclusivity up as the highest of qualities my whole family can continue to aspire to share in all moments. This song will be played so often to remind me how wide the ripples of love spread. Everyone involved in this collaborative masterpiece is amazing.
I remember when I was in kindergarten, this song was played in classrooms all across my school, at the same time on the same day. Posters that all said "don't laugh at me" were put up in all the hallways. Hearing you guys cover this unlocked a core memory that I forgot I had, and y'all absolutely nailed the song.
What about this: I'm in Love with a Woman by Lindsey Alexander, definitely and absolutely we want Adam Chance to take full lead will used his higher and some lower register for his mixed and chest equilibrium, high harmony by: Austin Brown, Rob Lundquit, Tim Foust will used his chest for the bassline
And so relatable to me...I was bullied to the point of attempted suicide in 8th grade. Thanks Home Free, Mark and 21 Pineapples
This is such a beautiful song. Thank you so much it means a lot to me personally. I lost my entire left leg almost six years ago, I'm 43 and the amount of belittling, torment and abuse I get from adults breaks my heart. I don't wear a prosthesis as my type is very big and cumbersome, so it's easier for me to get around on crutches. Yes I look different, but I'm still a human being! I still laugh, cry, defend and debate. Children are the complete opposiite to adults. They come up to me and ask questions like "did your leg fall off when you were running" because they're curious! I'm happy to answer any questions children, or adults may have. Knowledge is power and ignorence is pain and hurt. Children are sponges that absorb EVERYTHING around them. So if they're brought up surrounded by people who make hurtful, nasty remarks about people who look different, be it disability, race, even clothing , they will grow up with the same mindset! WE ARE ALL HUMAN BEINGS!! Each and every single person deserves the right to be treated with respect and kindness. What you give out you get back ten fold. So next time you see someone who doesn't fit the sterotypical "normal" person remember we have hearts, we have a mind, we have souls....we are humans. Treat EVERYONE the way you want to be treated. BTW, found you guys a while ago but didn't start really istening til the last few months. You're amazing, as performers and as human beings. Your vids have lifted my spirits when they were low and always puts a smile on my face. I love behind the scenes and your from the vault series! THANK YOU FROM THE BOTTOM OF MY HEART! Peace and Love from Australia🥰

🍟 As a Grandma to an Autistic Granddaughter and a Down Syndrome Granddaughter this struck a very deep chord for me.
My Autistic sweetie was recently 'expelled' from her Homeschooling program because she had missed too many days.
Her Mom was going through breast cancer surgery & chemo, so yes she missed some days - but still managed to get all A's. Life sucks sometimes.
This song and video speaks volumes for those who can't!
Thank all of you - it's a real gift. 🍟💖

This video actually brought me to tears. Wow. This hit deep for me. Thank you Home Free and Mark Wills.
Just the thought of someone mistreating my Down's nephew brings me to tears, but the ending shows exactly how he would handle it. Such a sweet soul! Thank you so much for this!!
I was bullied by all of my sisters, it started after my mom got me home from the hospital. I have 5 sister, I am the baby. My 4th oldest sister would drop me n my head trying to kill me. I was a sickly baby and my mom had to focus on me more. The other 4 sisters would call me names and treat me so bad. When I started kindergarten the bulling got worse, I had school kids picking on me, push me around and hit me. This went on all through my elementary, middle, and high school years. After I got out of school I thought the bulling would stop, but it didn’t. My sisters kept on picking on me. The didn’t want me around at all. When my parents would make my sisters take me places they would treat me really bad. I am 57 and the bulling has never stopped. I finally realized, going into my 26th year of marriage, that what my husband was doing to me was severe bulling. Now I am stuck here with him because I have no job, no money, no family and no friends.
Bulling hurts. Some kill themselves to get away from it. Some of us have bad depression and anxiety. Some go through it their entire life. 😢💔
Hello Carol. How are you doing?

Hello George...
Hello George...
I loved this song from day one I was bullied in school simply because I grew up poor and couldn't afford to buy the cool clothes etc I never told my mom until about 5 years Ago ( I'm now 48) it was a hard time but it contributed to who I am today. This song will always have a special place in my heart.. Great choice ya'll!!!!!
🤗🤗🤗
Oh boy! This song has always been special! As soon as I saw the title I knew Home Free had plans for that very important message and I didn't even know it was anti-bullying month! Mark Wills sounded just as beautiful as when he released the song originally. My only complaint is that I'm all stuffed up and can't breathe through my nose because I was in tears before the 1st line was finished! Thank You all for spreading the word and standing up for the many people who suffer needlessly from bullying! This is why we love you so much! In a world full of roses, be a sunflower!🌻❤
I feel this deeply. What a beautiful song! Thank you all for this. You're a gift.
Hello Lorri..
Hello
how are you doing hope all is well with you over there may God bless you
Listened to Mark for years. He’s such an incredible singer
Hello Kyle. How are you doing?
Oh my goodness!!!!! Absolutely beautiful!!!! Once again, thank you Home Free and Mark Wills!!!! This was so incredibly powerful and just so perfect! Thank you so much for the message, the harmonies and the absolutely magnificent song!!!! 💜
Yes, I saw first hand the damage words can do to others. Children and adults with developmental disabilities have so very much to give, once you give them a chance. I love the song and it has touched my heart - where it will remain. Thank you from someone who worked with these marvelous people for over 40 years. This video is awesome ❤️
The original has always been a favourite of mine, but this new version really hits you in the feels. Made me cry watching. Your daughters voice is amazing as well. You should record a duet with her. Thanks for all you do and all the wonderful music.
Hello chrissyro..
Was wondering who that was thank you
My elementary school principal decided this was a song to play over the loud speakers every morning. I think she single handedly changed a generation
I’m looking forward to this one. You men about to make me cry 😅

This song is spectacular. Very close to my heart, I was heavily bullied in school and at home. I was 14 when this song came out and this song got me through a lot. Thank you so much Mark and Home Free. I hope this song continues to touch lives for many more years to come.

If this don't touch you, then you took the heart out of you God gave you. Great job Home Free and Mark.
Being a mom of a young lady with DS, thank you for seeing the couple in your video as capable individuals, and exposing goodness as contagious. Individuals with different abilities are perfect and see everyone through innocent loving eyes. We should all want to be like them!
Hello Lori. How are you doing?
I knew when I clicked on this I'd cry, and seeing the video, I did, like a baby as a 34 year old man. I just love the message of this song and always have.
