Positive energy is contagious and can change the way you look at things. I believe Home Free's positive energy is a big part of why we love them. Thanks for the Home Free reactions
Great reaction! I'm loving these 10th anniversary renditions and find it amazing that #HomeFree can upgrade their upgrades! LOL. Please keep the Home Free coming; you now know, they never disappoint!
The girl took her glasses off right AFTER Tim's crazy low note. That's what did changed everything, imho. I'd love to see your reaction to their recent release, Stand by Me.
You missed doing Home Free’s “Stargazer Trilogy”, all written by Austin about his lovely lady, Amberly, who is now his wife! Songs are: Give Me a Sign, Stargazer Lilies (her favorite flower) & MR (title is revealed in the song)! Also, followed up with “Playing With Fire”, another Austin original, about Amberly! You’ve missed so very much!!!
Since it dropped IMMEDIATELY became my favorite Home Free video - can't stop watching it !!! React to their latest, Christmas in LA - a cover of a 2016 song from Vulpeck....nicely upbeat and a mood changer....just so darn good by these boys
Thanks and I will add that to the list. By the way your team is looking great this year. A guy I worked with at school’s son is on the practice squad for the dolphins. He also played at Penn State, Nick Bowers
Caught you live for the 1st time today Bob, but wanted to say I catch your channel all the time. Your breakdowns are on point and you don’t overdo the analysis. Keep up the great work, it’s appreciated!
Tim has been working on his chest fry. I don't know if it helps him hit lower notes but it sure sounds like it. You really hear it on the last note of the Ring of Fire redo. These are the best
This was one of my favorite songs from their Sing-Off performances. I really hope someone will post a video of Adam doing his solo at a holiday concert. He did a full version of Carol of the Bells with nothing but his voice while using the looper.
@@bobcieslinski It was completely amazing! I think one of the reasons it impressed me so much is that it was a combination of his beatboxing skills and his vocal talent.
Rob smooth voice blends great with Austin's high vocals. Tim's bassy bass and Adam's off the chain beatboxing. Home Free love getting crazy by enjoying what they love. Great reaction.
Thanks for your reaction. Another fun remake of this song. They originally did this song on the "Sing Off" they won in 2013. I like that Rob started out the song & then Austin came in later & of course the other guys added their special touches in the background. Always enjoy Tim's low growl. The guys all had such funny grumpy faces, especially Tim. Like how it started in black & white & then shifted to color when they put on the glasses. I noticed they had the same girl & guy who were the fire dancers in "Playing With Fire" in the background as extras.
Quite a fun song! That last low note was pretty sweet, and that he can hit it pure is quite impressive. I do enjoy their harmony and how they seem to really enjoy singing. I was trying to link "rose colored glasses" with it but couldn't seem to match it all up, lol.
It is a pretty fun one and Tim hitting that note is crazy. I was able to see them in concert awhile back and hearing him do that live is incredible. You can feel it throughout your whole body. Hope you have an awesome day Guy!
@@guygourley2411 and @ bobcieslinski Hi there! I read your comment Guy and then listened to Christmas songs and this came up! It is the Swedish acapella group The Real Group. I can’t find a live video but this is from a live recording. Listen to the bass! 😊 (First really low tone at 0.19). Happy Xmas (War is over): th-cam.com/video/ti3KGNWOHic/w-d-xo.htmlsi=-7SqmKUglpJowtXV Also would like to share their American Christmas Medley. Here you can hear all five having solos. The soprano Margareta Bengtsson is a favourite voice of mine. So clear and soft. It’s the original group members performing. I’ve heard them several times live and they were amazing. And fun! Wrote a lot of own songs with lyrics with a twist 🙂 In Swedish though… (Today The Real Group still exists but with completely other members). American Christmas Medley: th-cam.com/video/NEnt7TNGfRA/w-d-xo.htmlsi=LH3o-bTodNdtXRXn Ps. The whole album ”Julen er her” is delightful. I enjoy it so much 😌 Filled with harmonies that fill my body ✨
@@bobcieslinskiFeel it through your whole body - yes, that is really how it is! 🙂 Please see my comment above as reply to Guy and you get another really low note that I at least feel in my body.
I saw this wonderful group in Stockholm september 18- 2023. They are fantastic. This song among other of their songs I listen to EVERY SINGEL DAY.💖💖💖💖💖💖 LOVE IT But I hate when some people ruin the music with one stop after another instead of do the talk after the song😡
Sorry Jane. I stop to make the comments as we see and hear those things. I feel it would be pointless to mention them well after the song has ended. The context would be lost. I do rewind so that we don’t miss any of the song though. I hope you can look past that and enjoy the videos anyway. Thanks for watching and commenting.
They’re so good. Cute video. Yes, I think you were right on on the glasses. Adam is special. If you like Christmas music try Do You Hear What I Hear (arranged by Adam), O Holy Night (arranged by Tim when he was a teenager) and What Child is This (arranged by Chris Rupp and had both Chris and Chance in it). Good reaction Bob! 😍😃
It looks like it might actually pain Austin to not be his smiling self from the very beginning... Home Free are my rose-colored glasses! Whenever I'm down, listening to one of their songs picks me up--every time❣️🎼🥰🎶❤️ #HomeFree
Hey Marsha, they all looked out of their comfort zone. I think they prefer to be happy and positive. They are amazing and can make me smile anytime too.
I agree about blending Rob and Austin but Tim and Austin ...On Austins What's Hers Aint Mine Tim did the Low end and they did My Maria Cover of Brooks and Dunn
I interpreted the glasses on/off as sometimes you need a little help feeling more positive but eventually you don’t need the “crutch” and can see the good things without help.
Hey Bob, I’ve noticed you have not done any reactions to Voctave. Being a music teacher you must check this group out. They are an 11 member ensemble(sm. choir, group,etc.) with the best harmonization. When it comes to song arrangements it doesn’t get better than Jamey Ray who is also a tenor in the group and currently a professor of music at Rollins College in Winter Park FL. He is also serves as the choral editor for Excelcia Music Publishing overseeing, selecting & editing music for the choral catalog every year. Check them out!
@@bobcieslinski I recommend the following to listen to first. Just go ahead and drop what you are doing and take a listen! I recommend this one first as each female is showcased. They are a cut above all other a cappella groups. Voctave - “Disney Princess Medley” th-cam.com/video/aBCukAJwKN0/w-d-xo.htmlsi=tuNNPzffZEr1GwWy
I love the idea that changing your view of the world (putting on rose coloured glasses) can change your perspective of your environment. Of course the singing, harmonies & beatboxing are terrific. The song was also included in their older video "Hunter Hayes Medley". Adam is often introduced as their "pulse & heartbeat" (or a freak of nature!). Watch "Christmas in L.A." -he's amazing! Thanks for playing this & your insights.
This is the 10th Anniversary of them winning The Song Off, so they have upgraded the songs they performed for the show. Would love to see you react to the originals, lots of fun to them and then the upgrade !! Love all your Home Free reactions !!
I want crazy? I don't need glasses for that, just Home Free is enough. This sounds great again!! How nice is that it has become a completely different version than the Sing Off, with Rob (and Austin) in the lead. The video was so much fun too. The first somewhat grumpy faces that completely brighten up. And how beautiful that red suit looks on Rob and later without glasses. 😍What a handsome cuddly bear 🥰. And hey, we don't really need to talk about the background vocals, harmony, bass and beatboxing because they are, as always, so incredibly good. Yes, again the biggest compliments to Home Free. Excellent💖
Hi Bob! Hope you and your family are doing well. These guys are always on point. I agree with what you said about the glasses. I really think that it's all about our attitude and how we look at life in general. We don't need any enhancements, just take life as it comes and make the best of it. I don't know if you've watched the 7 short videos that these guys made about the History of Home Free, but they're great. It tells all about when and where they started and all the people that have been involved with the group since their inception. They're funny and serious at the same time. They even at one point almost gave it up, but Chris and Adam kept it going. And now, here they are. Have a great day!
Not really different I think I just say it differently not having any Music training and being a reader in my own head a lot... I see it as a shift in perspective. At first you need assistance to do it aka the Rose colored glasses and having 1 person believe in you That Gal giving you the new vision. Then after a bit you just share the new brighter perspective and one day you realize all the people that matter to you joined you. You don't need the Rose colored glasses anymore. Life, finding your Tribe, making the best of a day any day all starts with a shift in your perspective. HF never preachy but man can they deliver good solid advice.
are you watching the video or just listening to the music. If you watch the video the guys look bored and disgusted and not wanting to be there. Until they get their rose colored glasses. They make such fantastic videos.
Hey Linda, I’m watching just like you. I did notice that and that’s why I mentioned the up and down parts of the video correlate to the black and white and the color.
These guys are always so entertaining and so darn good. What are your thoughts?

Looking at the world through 'Rose Colored Glasses', having a Home Free positive attitude. These guys always make my day.
They make mine too. Such a positive message that we all need to hear.

These boys just make me happy! ❤ I would love to hear your reaction to another recent release by them Stand By Me. Thanks for a great reaction!
Thanks Patricia! I’ve got that one on my list. I’ll try to get to it as soon as I can.
Rob is so handsome! This is song makes me happy.
It is a happy one.
The fellows grumpy faces were amusing, but the best was Adam’s eye rolling. 😅
lol
You don’t just listen Home Free’s songs if they are happy,sad ,funny or make you think you feel them.
They just released Christmas In LA on Friday
I’ll have to check it out. Thanks!
@@bobcieslinski your welcome
A fun song and video that shows how you see things is largely a matter of choice.
So true Rich. Thanks for the great comment.
Thanks for another fun reaction, Bob!
Thanks Michael!

Man I love Tim’s low notes. They are just crazy.
This was one of my favorite songs from their Sing-Off performances. I really hope someone will post a video of Adam doing his solo at a holiday concert. He did a full version of Carol of the Bells with nothing but his voice while using the looper.
Wow Carol that had to be amazing. He did a solo at the concert I saw awhile ago. It was mind blowing.
@@bobcieslinski It was completely amazing! I think one of the reasons it impressed me so much is that it was a combination of his beatboxing skills and his vocal talent.

They sure do Peggy!
Quite a fun song! That last low note was pretty sweet, and that he can hit it pure is quite impressive. I do enjoy their harmony and how they seem to really enjoy singing. I was trying to link "rose colored glasses" with it but couldn't seem to match it all up, lol.

Great rxn as usual
I agree with your assessment of the symbolic "rose colored" glasses.
Thanks Deans!
Yeah, my favorite equation is Rob + Austin = AWESOME.😊
That’s a great combo Karin!
Is that Rob’s wife that he’s dancing with him? If so, I never knew that it was her in “Hillbilly Bone!”
Someone told me it was but I don’t know for sure.
