Check out my previous Home Free reaction next! th-cam.com/video/ktyN4WQ9-YQ/w-d-xo.html
I think you might like their “Country Fried Pop Medley” from this same time frame.
Covering 17 Artists, 15 songs, 1 four minute song.
Another arrangement by Austin.
seconding that
Hope you check it out it’s very good I also 2nd it
Agreed 👍
Agree
Agreed. Very interesting arrangement that I don't think anyone has really analyzed. You would do great with this one.
I love their silly side. I know The Butts Remix is on your list. I’m looking forward to that one because Layne had a hand in the arrangement and I’m wondering if you will be able to tell. Plus it’s just really good fun.
And more Rob dancing!!
Tim: It’s all about ME!
🤣🤣🤣
The BTS is fun for HomeFries.
And Chris Rupp talks through this video on his channel too. Austin was the primary arranger.
That has always been my favorite part...Bass, bass, bass, Meeeee
I never noticed that before Sir Hairless pointed it out! So good.
This is a scene-for-scene spoof of Trainor's original video. She actually shared it on her social media with the comment that it was the best thing ever.
The thing I love about Home Free's humor is that the videos can get extremely silly, the lyrics and story in the song may be funny, but the singing is always top-notch.
And speaking of All About That Bass, you might check out Postmodern Jukebox's cover of it, if you haven't seen it.
Austin with the yodel tease here.... he goes full on in "Thank God I'm a country boy". Another very fun video. 😂❤❤
I hope you check out, and react to Austin and Rob singing Pucinni's, Nessum Dorma. Hearing those two guys singing opera, is quite a treat!
Another fun one is their cover of Rick Astley's "Never Gonna Give You Up". Dawg even has a cameo appearance. Also, The Doobie Brothers cover "Listen to the Music", Adam's percussion is insane. Fun one as you said! 😊
Edit: pretty little fur baby!
…”it must have been The Nutcracker at the Royal Ballet”? SH is obviously having a great time. Great reaction that perfectly describes a fantastic video.
There's a great official blooper video of them making this video. Great, funny watch of the guys trying to get the choreography and extended Rob dancing!
This is one of their "Classics" that they still manage to squeeze into their live shows. We have so many gems to choose from at this point that it's a treat to hear some of the older songs.
Home Free has a series "From the Vault" - the behind the scenes filming of their videos. The BTS of this video is one of the episodes and it's funny as hell. Your cat is simply adorable! I only got to see fur-baby for a few seconds but I think I've got a pet-crush on your cat! Thanks for playing this & your comments.
I’ve watched this video so many times, but you picked out things I’d never noticed or realized before. I love your analysis! Thanks for doing these.
Great analysis! This is such a fun song. Home free does a great job of spoofing Meghan Trainor's song. I love it when the guys ham it up, but their vocals never suffer. This song always puts a smile on my face. Love Austin's yodeling. There is a behind the scenes video which is very funny. You can tell that the guys love what they do.
I think you'd like their "Butts Remix" Humor and many different genres all mixed together.
Yes I agree
It is brilliant.
I love your analysis. Thank you for pointing out Chris' talent and his ability to pick up the bass when Tim is doing high notes. I haven't heard too many reactors compliment Chris' talent and contributions to their videos . He really is talented and gifted . He also dances and has won competitions. Thanks ❤🥰
Yes...he has a lot of really good stuff on his own channel, now...with the several groups he has put together since 2016.
According to Tim, on recordings it’s him doing the bass line(layered) and Chris would do it on live performances
This reaction video put a big smile on my face :) It was so much fun and talent mixed together that even your cute cat wanted to participate in the party!😊
She did indeed!
I love their comedy on "Hillbilly Bone" as well with Chance playing the part of a city slicker feeling out of his element in the country. Too funny!
When this originally came out, I had only one round of surgeries on each side and still had about 50% of my hearing, so I am very familiar with this MT song, that being said.... What a flipping hoot this was! I'm glad you broke this down so much, because being familiar with MT doesn't make it so with 4 parts and beat boxing.
I love Austin singing the word "bass" and Tim singing the word "treble." Clever as heck!
The yodel.... I just can't 😂
The cat.... I'm dying!
This Home Free video made me laugh out loud. Thanks, Sir, for making my day! The barber shop and yodeling remind me of childhood memories. I love both.
Loved the cat adding her note to the song. 😊
She's such a good singer
Love this reaction!!! This is hilarious live as well. More dancing. Adored Squeaky singing along. She is beautiful. Thank you so much!
Very fun rendition & video Loved your kitty’s cameo & brief vocal contribution 😻 I hope we get to see more furball appearances very gorgeous.
So much fun. Loved your comment about Rob and the Nutcracker! Did you see Austin when he was laying down doing his yodel? He had his thumb tucked into his belt. Just like you mentioned wanting to do earlier in the song. Spot on! I love this one because I love Barber Shop Music. Thanks again for another fun and educational time.
Lol… Oh my goodness!! Mr. Yodel Man! You make me laugh. It’s a fun song. We all need a little silliness in our lives. Thanks again. 🤗
Love this!! Your analysis is always so fascinating to watch - thank you, Sir! Another home run!! xx
Love your analysis and reactions! If you haven't, I strongly suggest HOME FREE's "BUTT REMIX MEDLEY" and also POST MODERN JUKEBOX's version of "All about the Bass" - both terrific and a lot of fun. Keep up the good work!
Beautiful kitty!!! Enjoy your analysis of this group.
#HOMEFREE....so fun!
No wonder you are so good! You’ve been analyzing since you were 10? Writing down barbershop parts? WOW! I can’t hear the parts until you pull them out and tell us about them. That’s one of the reasons I like to watch your videos. I can hear more of a song after your analysis. Of course “Squiggy?” Is adorable! Would love to hear more kitty singing! :). Thank you for another great video!
Haha I wouldn't say analysing, more just writing out the parts - not for training or anything, I just wanted to be able to sing them all myself so I would write them out 😅
I'd love to hear more of Squiggy's singing too but she's a lil camera shy Thanks!
Your knowledge and sense of hearing are exceptional! Like the format a lot!
Great reaction and breakdown as always! It helps me appreciate #HomeFree and their genius vocals all the more. They never disappoint!
Hahahaha! Beautiful analysis and beautiful cat Sir Hairless! ❤😂😻 You are both clearly enjoying this super rendition by HF! Put a big smile on my face! Thank you SH! ❤🙏🕺
Well, I was not expecting that either. I saw this in my feed and thought it was a montage of their greatest bass moments, so I was a bit baffled as to why you would r/a it. Now it makes sense.
Awww, your kitty is so cute 🐈⬛! With that voice, she could help you with the analysis part of your videos 😹
This is one of their most fun covers. Total enjoy Austin's yodeling.
I love your Home Free reactions and I love Home Free’s humorous side! If you liked Austin’s yodeling he does some awesome scatting in their cover of Avicii’s Wake Me Up. They also just released a video for Tim’s original song “I’ve Seen” and it’s awesome! Thanks again and have a great day!
Thanks for dissecting what we're hearing and enjoying. Your smiles look good on you! 😅
Such goofballs. The blooper reel is a gem. Love the cat.
Thank you for another great analysis, so happy to see Home Free on the channel again.
Home Free's sense of humour is definitely one of their defining traits. I'm going to echo the suggestion for their version of Never Gonna Give You Up, and their version of Between a Rock and a Heartache.
They have a making of video for this that you might enjoy watching.
I hadn't seen this one before but it's so funny but also really clever! Very fun and engaging arrangement and a brilliant video. I generally prefer Voiceplay to Homefree, but this one is great! It was nice to see you enjoying it so much.
Yes! I loved her singing! Lovely to see you have a cat, and she is beautiful ❤ x
❤ Love hearing your thoughts/explanations, thank you! Also enjoyed miss kitty in the background. 😊
As usual, love your musical commentary. Squiggy was definitely a cute addition!
😻 just fun and good vibrations for people and cats
🐈⬛
Thank you for another enlightening reaction and analysis. Once agsin I learned a bunch more about this song
Such a fun one! Yes, please do invite your kitty back to sing anytime! ☺️
oh I'd love to her in every video I make!
I love this! You should now react to The Butts Medley (sometimes referred to incorrectly as The Butts Remix)! It's a hoot!
🐆🦓🐎 .. good to see you laughing, Sir Hairless. Not only is the humor excellent in this video , but the singing is top notch also. You have not line danced ???? ... well then, here is an invitation to you....... if you are ever in Niagara Falls area of New York , send me a message. I will take you to see my younger brother's rockin' band , where he gets the crowd line dancing ((.. you will pock it in just a few minutes..)). Iove what Home Free has done with this song. Great reaction , as usual Sir ... .. 🐎🦓🦌
More Home Free , please !!!!!!
Sounds amazing! Thank you sir 🐎🦓
This was a lot of fun tonight. Thank you for another great reaction! BTW.. My favorite part is seeing the joy on your face when reviewing the yodeling. Again, a lot of fun!
You are so much fun to watch and listen! I'm pleased that I stumbled across your channel; such a good time! Thank you! And such a sweet kitty cat!
These guys can go from making you cry to rolling on the floor laughing with tears! 🤣 They're great! ❤
Oh‼️ Your cat is adorable ❣🤗 Awesome reaction ‼️ 🤗
Love your analyses. Nobody has really done such a thorough look at this one and you just catch everything! Thanks for reacting to this one. As mentioned before, you may like Country Fried Pop Medley.
Love it when the fur babies want to join in on the fun!!🙂❤
Your kitty! What a cutie! You must have her in more videos! 😻😻😻
Meow is awesome...lol. My guilty pleasure song.
I really love your analysis'. So fun and so good. Their parody of Meghan's video is just as much fun as their arrangement of her song. She loved it when they released it. She gave them a shout-out for it at the time.
I do hope "Brother" is on your list because the vocal harmony is so good in it. However, it may be difficult to concentrate on those beautiful vocals and lyrics because of the fun video they did for it! I always have to watch it twice every time I watch it; once with the video, for the video, and then once again with my eyes closed, so I can enjoy just the vocals. Otherwise, I get distracted every time. 😄 Only these guys would put such a fun video to such a beautiful song, and it still works! The message in the lyrics comes through perfectly. Thx for the reaction. Loved it!
It's nice to see you laugh, you have a beautiful smile.
It wouldn't work as an analyses, but if you want a real giggle watch the bloopers version of this video, it shows how difficult it can be to get what seems like it would be a simple part of the video.
I watched it! Great fun 👌🏽
The reaction to one of the best Home Free has done is so wonderful. Thank you.
Give your beautiful kitty a head scratch from me. She is gorgeous.
So fun & excellent analysis as always 🩷
I think it's unbelievable to witness their broad spectrum of music they create. The silly side is wonderful. My personal most moving song is Brothers in Arms. Nothing would please me more than for you to analyze this much more serious but beautiful song.
Thanks Todd. Brothers In Arms is on my list for a future reaction!
Btw, I see you've upgraded to the Egg tier of membership! Wow - thank you so much Please reach out to me about this via my email: sirhairlessbusiness@gmail.com
The boys can be nuts but that’s why I love them. Such a good analysis on a silly song. I had no idea it had that many views….goodness! Good one SH!😂😍
I can't *wait* for you to react to the Butts remix. 😅 And if you want something serious to mix it with, How Great Thou Art and Brothers in Arms. I also hope you get to react to more of their originals!
The vault of this one is hilarious. You get much more of Rob practicing for the “Nutcracker” and more of the making of this. Love your laugh and smile. 🌟🌟
I love Austin’s yodeling!
At the top of the analysis game as always Sir !! Thank you so much 🙏🏻, i learn things and i love that ❤❤🎉🎉
This wasctheir "countrification" of Meghan's song. Instead of doll houses and pastels, HF had a barn and animal toys and a camo tarp.
That review was as fun as the video. Thanks, Sir.
That was fun! I wouldn’t have expected this one for an analysis, but I was very pleasantly surprised! How could anyone not love this one! There was more to analyze than I would imagine. I see how much you really enjoyed it, too! Oh, I didn’t know you had a cat! I’m a fellow cat person. We have two! What can I suggest/recommend as another Home Free? Hmm! I have two: a cover of Ben E King’s “Stand By Me”, or Roy Orbison’s “Pretty Woman”. There are so many more. I really enjoyed this analysis and reaction. I could tell you were amused and entertained.
It's usually the case there's always a lot more thought goes into these arrangements than we might think!
I've done "Oh Pretty Woman" already, but it was The Sing Off performance - I understand they've released a studio version since?
@@SirHairless Yes, they did! They made some changes, but it’s better, in my opinion. 😊
Thank you! I am totally in love with your analyses in regard to the rhythms throughout this cover (I'm at the halfway point right now). I never had really thought about it much, when just listening to, and bopping with, it on my own, though I was aware of the differences.
Suddenly, though, when you started going through it, I knew WHY it appeals to me so much! My mom was an EXPERT at "swinging" just about anything. She was a wonderful (classically-trained) violinist, who started playing at age five, and who played in a dance band with her two older sisters (supervised by my grandfather), starting when she was eight, and the sisters were all still in elementary school. Yes...they were that good -- in fact, one summer (before any of them were in high school) they "opened" for the Lawrence Welk band, here in South Dakota!
Mom played first-chair violin from the first time she was in a school orchestra. Her high school band teacher REALLY worked with her for professionalism. Over the years, she also add a large number of other instruments to her repertoire. There's a whole lot more to her story, but suffice it to say that I (with my three surviving siblings...our oldest brother only made it to 10 days...I'm the next one down, and my sister is nine years younger than I, with our two other brothers between) all grew up with music being the VERY predominant thing in all of our lives. It's simply what we've all done, all our lives, and we cannot live without music. Our own children and grandchildren are now following in those footsteps. This past November, I got a photo from my oldest girl, on her granddaughter's fourth birthday, captioned, "She definitely takes after her Great Grandma!" Little Amelia was marching around the room with a toy drum, and obviously singing along to whatever music was causing her to "march in time."
When I see and hear things like what you are analyzing here, I always feel the need to call in my mother so she can share in the joy. Unfortunately, she passed away in 2014. I know she's still enjoying all the wonderful music that is available to her NOW, though, and she'll definitely be SWINGING whatever it is she's playing or singing, because that was her VERY favorite type of rhythm, here on Earth.
I'm inclined in the same direction. So now I'll get back to your analysis. 😀
Yes! Barbershop! Our family has done a BUNCH of that, too! What's fun, is that my brothers both sang in a group in high school, and then over the summers, they would go out and sing on the street corners (in New Valdez, Alaska -- after the 1964 quake), and once they helped an older lady carry her groceries across the street, while singing the song she had requested from them. THEN, in later years, when my oldest boy was doing barbershop when HE was in high school, and we were living in California, he and HIS group did the same thing! He had, of course, heard his uncle (and me) telling him of when HE had done that, so they just decided they would do the same thing. Such fun!
During the years after the quake in Valdez, I was running a three-girl folk band/group. Our singing was a bit different from what the boys were singing, but we did a lot of our singing and playing out on the street corners, as well. We also would sing for things like public award presentation meals, etc. Most of what we performed was quite extemporaneous...not that we hadn't done the songs before, but we enjoyed changing the rhythm and chording patterns just a bit, from time to time, to better suit the different situations where we found ourselves performing. I think that one reason I have loved Home Free ever since I first heard them, has a LOT to do with those experiences.
So...yeah...THANK YOU AGAIN, for this wonderful reaction. I LOVE Home Free's version of the song, and I LOVE how you interpreted it. FABULOUS! 😀
Thank you for the comment 🎶 Sounds like you have some amazing musical memories
@@SirHairless Always. 😀
Definitely watch the behind the scenes!
Top class mate. Another leading example of how to break down a vocal performance. I'm inadvertently learning nerdy music theory simply by watching your videos.
Still SOOOOO many good ones that you haven't hit yet. Land Of The Free (original), One Man Band, Dreamer ft. Texas Hill (live at The Ryman version) and Listen To The Music (cover of the Doobie Brothers mega-hit). Let's get to crackin' my man!
When pop country meets barbershop. That final chord is *chef's kiss*. This break down was fantastic and so in depth that it really added to my appreciation of one of my favorite covers.
❤️❤️
So much fun! The Blooper video for this one is hilarious! Thanks for the Home Free reactions
Your analysis is amazing. I try to learn, but you're at least two levels over my head.
Home Free did great with this song and they are having a good time with this song. They are funny. You did a great job with your reaction.😊😊 They are my favorite group. Austin did a great job on this song. Tim's voice and they did a great job. I like the way they did this song. The harmonies are great.
This is so csmpy it is great...I love to watch it over and over...
For more ridiculous fun with home free, listen to. “This is How We Rol”! Their outfits are from “The Big Lebowski”!! Fun Reaction!
Loved the reaction and analysis! It's a fun one and looked like you were having fun as well. Even in their comedy they don't lack technique, production, arrangement, etc. Great to hear and see Squiggy (?) Glad she wanted to sign along as well. More fun ones: Butts Remix and Country Fried Pop. Looking forward to your R&A to End of the Road and Brother in Arms and Bless the Broken Road.
Squiggy's singing voice is a treat for us all (it's my nickname for her - she's called Squirrel 🐈⬛)
I love watching your eyes light up when you hear interesting bits. I saw someone mention Countryfied Pop melody which I would also recommend but on the light side, the Butts Medley is vocally interesting and a lot of fun.
Nice to see your smile,sir) Lovely!❤
You'll want to check out the covers of the "magazines" every singer holds up. There are some seriously funny headlines featured. You might need to play it back at 4k with a big monitor.
😂😂 you should do a non analysis reaction to the bloopers for this video lol. I love to see an analysis for Home Free " Butts Remix" lol I think you'll love it
Tim's hair looks so good in this video
Thank you for a great reaction and analysis, as always. I learn more about music theory and arranging every time.
More Kitty appearances please. What's Kitty's name? Looks like you really enjoyed this one 😊😊😊
My suggestion for you would be to watch HomeFree’s cover of Thank God I’m a country boy. Austin’s does a yodel in it. Really good fun video
Love it! Can't wait for you to do Home Free's Butts Remix. Also if you want more Meghan Trainor, Pentatonix did No which is excellent also.
Thanks for the cat shot!!
🙌
Hello, dear Sir Hairless!🙃 I see from the playlist that there are quite a few more songs from Home Free that you haven't analyzed. If you allow me, I would like to recommend one or two of my favorites to you. The first one you have already listened to is Ring of Fire with Avi Kaplan It turned out to be a great hit, worth comparing with the original. The second is the song Brothers in Arms, which you can't listen to enough, it's so good. The third is Man of Constant Sorrow, which topped my playlist for a long time. Because Pentatonix you also like it, so I would recommend the song The Sound of Silence, which they also covered. They approached it completely differently than Home Free, it would be nice to see what you think of their version. I will continue to follow you, I really like your videos. Greetings: Andrea👍
Laughing about the Nutcracker. If you get the chance, go back and pause on each magazine cover to read titles of the made up stories in each issue. Attention to silly detail is so wonderful.
How could you not love this and these guys?
Fun guys!
This was definitely fun
That was a fun year. They (the acapella basses) all did this one 🙂. Here's Avi's just an informal version.
th-cam.com/video/wBWFZ6IxeYg/w-d-xo.htmlsi=XHUCZoXFSQxx7kDi
Their video is similar to Megan's, The hair girls with bangs over their eyes, then the guys had hats pulled down over their eyes, Megan laying on pastel colors singing, Austin laying on camouflage while singing, Big Guy dancing, and then Rob dancing. There is a video also of the making of this video It's called Home Free - All About That Bass- Behind the Scenes Bloopers if you'd like to look at it just for yourself.
Thanks - I gave it a watch 😂
Home free are masters at comedy. One April fool's day they Rick Rolled us three times before dropping "Never gonna give you up" with perfect costuming and another Tim doing the worm sequence. It's one of my favorites. "Life is a highway" is cute too. Austin announced he was leaving the group a few months ago. I wonder who will replace him?
