I think nearly 50 have reacted to this, many who have never heard of Home Free. But they have now! Clever how they drew reactors in with the "try singing opera". Previous reactors to HF stuff were more shocked than most of the others. It's been great fun watching mouths drop open when Rob does his first few notes. Travis, you should watch Maggie Renee's reaction and others.
Gospel Rob is now Opera Rob. Professional opera have said Austin is a good crossover singer, but Rob could have had a career in opera! 😊 Love your stunned response.
Austin is very far from a "pop singer." I can only suppose that you have not heard much of his work. He was trained classically from adolescence and studied musical theatre at one of the best colleges for.such programs, where the voice training is very rigorous. He can sing in any genre, though I'm afraid being in Home Free has made him a country singer and so reduced his audience. Check out his.version of Bring Him Home for a study in control and sensitivity.
Rob is like a singing chameleon. He seem to be able to adjust his voice to literally any genre and style of singing and sound good doing it. Crazy. Austin, well he's got so much soul that it just oozes out of his ears, or perhaps out through his head as hair. Either way, he's got my absolute favourite voice of all times, and he never disappoints. You had the jaw drop, you're in good company and so was I. 😱 Thanks for the reaction, Travis! 🥰🙏
Rob studied opera in college and had not sung it in 15 years! Austin went for musical theatre with a bit of opera thrown in. His professors wanted him to continue with opera but his heart was in musical theater. Austin talked Rob into doing this video to show off Rob’s “hidden talent”! They were both very nervous when the video was going to be released! They both are awesome!
You can sure tell Rob studied opera! Austin did awesome too, but I could tell that once Rob started singing his voice was a bit more powerful and he got comfortable with it.. Not only hitting those notes but also getting the pronunciation and emotion right when singing in a different language is very difficult..
Years ago Rob's vocal coach said he could have a big career in opera. Thank God he joined HF. An Italian reactor said she not only forgot they weren't professional opera singers but she even forgot they weren't Italian.
Travis Rob actually was trained in classically in college. Austin was of a musical theater background. This was Austin's idea and he had to convince Rob to do it. Rob had not sung opera in 15 years. I was totally amazed that Rob sounded so different then usual but you could tell it was Austin. Truly enjoyed watching your reaction to this song.
I was completely mesmerized like under a spell or something listening to this video. Opera is hard and they don't sing Opera every day and they sound like they sing Opera every day! This totally proves that they can do anything vocally. All the guys of Home Free can.
Rob, Rob, Rob, Rob. He surprised me so much, too. I guess I sort of expected this from Austin, because I've seen his Bring Him Home, etc. But Rob was a surprise. Just wow. He's so polished and his tone, breathing, phrasing, all of it, really. Anyway, I get chills every time I hear that progression into the last belted note. I can't help it.
Such a treat! But seriously, Rob sounds like a different artist than we hear when he sings with Home Free! I don't like opera, but these two "tried" and did what I didn't expect--they made me want to watch it over and over again. Who knew? 🤭
In an interview with Patrol Gaming, Austin said he'd really wanted to show off "opera Rob"; however, Rob said he wouldn't unless Austin sang it with him (Rob had extensive training in opera. Austin had some but his degree is in Musical Theater). Austin said he thought he'd been okay but that Rob was fantastic. I love the way they support each other! Great reaction!
I know, right?! I was expecting to be rickrolled and then this happened. I knew Rob had studied opera but that was years ago. Austin studied musical theater and we know they can sing but this??!!! WOW! They’re so good. Full of surprises. 🥰
I often hear it said about Rob that he doesn’t look like that high country tenor should be coming out of him. He looks like THIS voice should be coming out of him. What a performance!
Travis, that was my reaction when I heard this. For what ever reason I thought it was going to be funny. I had no idea! On the other hand I knew in my heart that they wouldn't disrespect the genre by making it funny. So, that brings us to this fantastic performance. These guys have proven that they can do almost anything. My son and I went to see them live in a town near us and they are amazing. If you get a chance to go see them, jump on it. You won't be disappointed.
Rob bel canto'd the shizzle out of this, with a truly operatic free-spinning chiaroscuro!! God bless Austin for hitting the notes, & with some flair.... but I'd buy an album of Rob singing a selection of popular arias in a heartbeat. :)
Just listen again to Rob's solos in the Sea Shanty Medley - that larynx is good and dropped. In the UK (and in Russia) we love us a lyric tenor like Austin, so to me his entry really succeeds, with that bright incisive tone. I used to go to the opera a lot when I lived in London and got rather tired of the heavy Italianate style, but Rob's voice is truly special. It's a shame they've said that they won't be doing any more opera.
I agree with what you are saying here. It’s heretical, I know, but I enjoy their version of Nessun Dorma more than the famous viral recording by Pavarotti. To me it is more emotionally compelling and stronger in the lower registers where Pavarotti was not. Rob’s dramatic tenor is truly magnificent, and Austin’s soaring lyric tenor harmonizes beautifully. I hope that the overwhelmingly positive response convinces them to do more opera. Even this one song, one of the most beautiful and difficult tenor arias, has introduced a lot of people to the beauty of opera without the pretension.
Patrol Nation (Lyle) happened to show the live off-mic performance of 'How Great Thou Art' a couple weeks before this came out. You could easily hear the power and strength of Rob's voice in that, so I was somewhat prepared. But Rob's tone still shocked me. Very impressive.
I am so glad you got to this video. Austin had recorded his part, then heard Rob singing his part and went back and recorded his part over again. They are both absolutely amazing! They were both classically trained. Austin for Broadway musicals and Rob for Opera. Rob was actually nervous about this because it had been almost 15 years since he had sung in this style. I've heard his dad cried when he listened to it. So sweet.
@@TeaTimeWithTravis They're both amazing, but I'll admit, Rob blew me away more than Austin if for no other reason than sheer surprise. WOW the talent they have. I'm with you...when is the CD coming?
I cry everytime I hear this just from the beauty and emotion. Mind blowing right? A good lesson for many on "don't judge a book by it's cover"! So much more than what's under the hat's, jeans and boots! That was an awesome reaction Travis! Thank you and sending love from South Georgia!♥️😢🍟
It’s ok, I know, I wondered, at first is it was a joke with some kind of track over him! My chin was on the floor! And they were nervous about releasing it!!🔥🔥🔥It is so amazing and beautiful!😍🥰🥰. Everyone’s reaction is the same!😊 Wonderful! Loved yours!❤
For some reason, thought you'd already reacted to this. A good number of reactors, given the word 'try,' were expecting a spoof or lip syncing. Something in keeping with their comedic skills. (I'd not have been opposed to them staying in their tees and hats, appearing to make a valiant effort and then being amazing.) Now you'll never see Rob and Austin quite the same, knowing what more they're able to do. Given the overwhelmingly positive response the guys got to this, perhaps that'll motivate them to explore even more.
The true opera singers who are also reactors gave them very good marks for their efforts considering neither of them were professional opera singers. I want to hear Rob sing Santa Maria for Christmas.
I found some of the "professional " singers very patronising - "Good effort, guys!" particularly since these professionals seem to live off monetising reactions on YT, rather than by actually singing. As a former teacher, I know that praising people for their effort is the same as no praise at all!
Great Reaction! 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.
Stunning isn't it Travis? I have said this elsewhere and I'll say it here. When this first dropped and I watched and listened I froze, my mouth dropped open and the tears started falling. I absolutely adored Luciano Pavarotti and this piece. Maestro is smiling watching this now.
Someone mentioned that Rob sang this for his father for Father's Day. Also that Austin went back and recorded his part after hearing Rob's portion. Great reaction, knew you would love it. Glad to be following you as a subscriber. For a different aspect of Rob's singing there is a fan video of a Christmas concert from years ago with Rob doing "Joy To The World" (the Jeremiah Was Bullfrog one. Sorry don't have a link to it.
Totally agree, need opera albums ❤, your face looked like mine the first time I saw this and had to send this to my mom, who is kind of an opera snob, but I had introduced her to Home Free in May, she liked them, this blew her away ❤
What a great reaction! Yes, this is insane. It is so extremely good. Fantastic. Both are doing great, but Rob, I'm perplexed!!! His voice is just magical, so rich, so warm and powerful. Chills just ran through my body. It flows into my heart. For me he will be able to stand with the greatest of opera singers. It's not often that I listen to songs by opera singers 5 times and more in a row. But here it is. Of course I hope that both will always continue to do Home Free, but I wouldn't think it wrong that such "trips" are made more often. Opera, country, ballads, soul etc. I think anything is possible. Even if you don't like opera, you have to like it.
What world are we living in😳‼️. Thought your eyes were going to bug out of your head…I was surprised you sat on this for this long..but did not disappoint 🤗
Wow Holy Crap I'm Speechless Just Like You Are I Didn't Know Either Dang Awesome And Amazing OMG Is All I Can Say Blown Away By This Suprised Geez WOwwwww
You have no idea how long I've been waiting for Rob to do opera. I heard him goofing around on one of their 'From The Vault videos'. I did not know Austin was going to do it with him, but I have been waiting for Austin's opera turn since he mentioned it to Maggie Renée. This was such a treat. Now we only have to wait for Tim, because he was also goofing around with vocal projection on one of those videos. Country and opera! Not a combo most singers have in their repertoire.
Hahahaha!!! We knew you would be shocked. We all have been shocked!!! Rob says he sang opera in college but hasn't for years. Doesn't want to be an opera singer! Took a lot he said to get back to this for this song Austin wanted to do with him. Glad we were able to hear this as he says it's not going to ever be live or maybe anymore!? Who knows. But wow oh wow. I loved watching you watch this one! lol. Get those dance moves going Travis since you're at the front of the stage for the show and be ready!!! They will probably see you and say something! lol. Take care.
Quite the contrast from Rob’s “I like big butts and I cannot lie!” Of course we’ve come to know Austin can sing anything including yodeling! These guys are wonderful. I enjoyed your reaction. ❤
Rob Lundquist studied opera in college, Austin went more towards musical theater. If you want to complete the list of acapella singers with classical training, Avi Kaplan was studying opera as a basso profundo in college when he joined up to become Pentatonix.
As you know, this came from Austin's channel. I think it's wonderful that Austin features his bandmates on his channel and really lets them shine. Opera singers use their voices differently than pop singers do. I'm sure he went back and practiced some of his opera training drills before they recorded this. They both sound good, but this is definitely Rob's wheelhouse, so to speak.
Austin is doing a classical crossover (far too nasal for opera and his larynx is in the completely wrong location)...ROB is singing Opera And if you have never heard what Rob had hidden in his voice whenever he's singing with Home Free...you haven't been paying attention! If he were to study and practice more he would have had a fine operatic career. But, I am very happy that he chose acapella. The same with Austin, he would have done well in musical theater but again, I'm glad he chose acapella.
I learned about HomeFree from Miss Marie of Frenchtastic You Tube channel & my love for music is everything except offensive Rap for I prefer to be Entertained with vocal Talent and these Gentlemen have in spades. Yet if you read this Comment I would offer you this Vocal performer Miss Patricia Janeckova whom I call the ( Goddess of Song ) named ( Rusalka) where you can find her You Tube Videos. You know it from the magnificent Blue Gown & A full orchestra please not how far she social Distances from the Microphone to not over power the Orchestra. In my Humble Opinion she could Challenge God's Angels with her perfect pitch ,tone & note Separation with An absolute command & ease on the Stage. In A word I call ( Flawless ) 😆 Like button has been pressed.!!!
Another "Close your mouth before you start swallowing all the flies in the room" reaction. Not at all unexpected any more after watching around fifty reactions.

*I literally melted into a pool of goo when I heard our Home Free Boys sing this!!!* 😍😍😍
You're my 26th reactor to this song and the facial expressions have all been the same! Pure shock and awe!!!🤣🤣🤣

The announcer was a good example of how "blown away" I was. Just Awesome! I think they can do anything (Home Free)
Oh, yeah, I recognize that jaw drop. So proud of them for doing this. They were quite nervous that the Fries wouldn't like it. Ha!
i cried my eyes out the first time I heard this. Just amazing
If it's any consolation pretty much every reactor I've seen has been blown away by this. Austin is impressive but Rob has a truly magnificent voice.
Gospel Rob is now Opera Rob. Professional opera have said Austin is a good crossover singer, but Rob could have had a career in opera! 😊 Love your stunned response.
Hearing Rob singing in his operatic voice just smoked my mind. It's obvious he has had some training. They are both incredible. But Rob, Dang.
The best thing about all the Home Free guy is just when you think you seen all they can do they show you something else.
Austin does an amazing job as a pop singer singing opera. Rob IS an opera singer singing opera. They are both FANTASTIC.
Austin is very far from a "pop singer." I can only suppose that you have not heard much of his work. He was trained classically from adolescence and studied musical theatre at one of the best colleges for.such programs, where the voice training is very rigorous.

Austin is very far from being a "pop singer", having been classically trained from an early age and capable of singing in any genre.
@@patriciamcl54 Completely agree with you!!! Austin is so special, and has an incredibly rare voice, that is almost genre neutral ❣❣❣
Rob is like a singing chameleon. He seem to be able to adjust his voice to literally any genre and style of singing and sound good doing it. Crazy. Austin, well he's got so much soul that it just oozes out of his ears, or perhaps out through his head as hair.

I have watched your reaction to this many times over. Your reaction is the best ever❤❤
Absolutely amazing! Has blown many a mind!
One of the BEST reactions to this I've seen! It's about how I reacted lol!! Loved it and Love them!
You have no idea how long I've been waiting for Rob to do opera. I heard him goofing around on one of their 'From The Vault videos'. I did not know Austin was going to do it with him, but I have been waiting for Austin's opera turn since he mentioned it to Maggie Renée. This was such a treat. Now we only have to wait for Tim, because he was also goofing around with vocal projection on one of those videos. Country and opera! Not a combo most singers have in their repertoire.
Hahahaha!!! We knew you would be shocked. We all have been shocked!!! Rob says he sang opera in college but hasn't for years. Doesn't want to be an opera singer!

Quite the contrast from Rob’s “I like big butts and I cannot lie!” Of course we’ve come to know Austin can sing anything including yodeling! These guys are wonderful. I enjoyed your reaction. ❤
Rob Lundquist studied opera in college, Austin went more towards musical theater. If you want to complete the list of acapella singers with classical training, Avi Kaplan was studying opera as a basso profundo in college when he joined up to become Pentatonix.
Perfectly perfect, Nuff Said 👌 ❤️ ♥️ 😍
Superior reaction, Travis! Thanks!
I çàn listen to them all day long
OMG TRAVIS YOU KILL ME! STUNNING ISN'T IT! 😂
I agree 100% to every uh what er you said in the beginning! 🤣
Lol. I hope there are no flies in your house. 😲
Goose bumps every time I listen to this 🥰
anything and everything, they can do it
This is so great. They broke you!
No genre is off limits!
I'm with you- I'd buy that album in a hot minute!
Loved your reaction!!!
I've been waiting for you to react to. But ROB ROB ROB!!!!! Austin we knew had theatrical background....
Travis, I just subscribed to your channel. I loved your reaction! No pretense, no criticism...just honest enjoyment. Thank you.
Thanks for the sub!
Lol there's nothing they can't do 🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥
Rob is versatile enough to sing Nessun Dorma AND
I Like Big Butts.
I always knew that Rob was not using his full potential ( not that he wasn't already amazing), but damn, he blew me away!
Shut your face...they are crazy amazing!! WOW 🎉🎉🎉
What a fun reaction!
they both do be tenors so l didna be surprised
Austin was really good but Rob was unbelievable WOW
As you know, this came from Austin's channel. I think it's wonderful that Austin features his bandmates on his channel and really lets them shine. Opera singers use their voices differently than pop singers do. I'm sure he went back and practiced some of his opera training drills before they recorded this.

I heard that Rob warmed his opera voice back up for 6 hours - over several days, I'm guessing.
@@johntucker4296 , that wouldn't surprise me. I'm sure he had to practice some techniques he hadn't used in a very long time.
@@kristindunstan172 seems like he didn't need much time after 15 years
Just dropped into an alternate reality
I've never laughed at a stutterer before, such bad manners 🤣
Rob can sing pure opera- I’d say Austin is great at Classical Crossover.
LMFAO 😂
Austin is doing a classical crossover (far too nasal for opera and his larynx is in the completely wrong location)...ROB is singing Opera
And if you have never heard what Rob had hidden in his voice whenever he's singing with Home Free...you haven't been paying attention! If he were to study and practice more he would have had a fine operatic career. But, I am very happy that he chose acapella.
The same with Austin, he would have done well in musical theater but again, I'm glad he chose acapella.
That's damned sure a big difference from "I like big butts" ain't it! Loved the reaction.

Yet if you read this Comment I would offer you this Vocal performer Miss Patricia Janeckova whom I call the ( Goddess of Song ) named ( Rusalka) where you can find her You Tube Videos. You know it from the magnificent Blue Gown & A full orchestra please not how far she social Distances from the Microphone to not over power the Orchestra.
In my Humble Opinion she could Challenge God's Angels with her perfect pitch ,tone & note Separation with An absolute command & ease on the Stage. In A word I call ( Flawless ) 😆

Another "Close your mouth before you start swallowing all the flies in the room" reaction. Not at all unexpected any more after watching around fifty reactions.
