This has definitely been my most requested song to react and analyse… you guys!! I was definitely going to jump onto it 😂 did you doubt me?! Hope you enjoyed what I had to say! I absolutely loved it 😁
I read that Rob trained in Opera while Austin trained in Music Theater.
Never doubted you would do it but..... sometimes us Home Fries are a bit impatient. We have be loving jumping from reactor to reactor to see their thoughts and everything ❤❤
Thanks for doing it.
Rob studiied Opeta ..before you
I'm usually not interested in opera music which might be the reason why I missed the release of this song. Luckily you got it requested and did react to it. Gave me instant chills all over again and again during your whole reaction. Very well explained but I still wonder how someone is capable of such perfection if not being a dedicated opera singer for many years. This one left me just speechless. So thanks again Jen!
Rob shines so bright in this one. I have to give props to Austin for getting Rob on this project, especially knowing Rob, as a rusty but trained opera singer, was going to outshine him. I love how little ego there is in Home Free and how happy they are to bring attention to each other's talents.
isn't austin the one that (IIRC it was a live show?) laid on top of the speaker and asked tim for a back massage?
i know for a FACT he's got a cat named DAWG... although he never SPECIFIED what he was looking for... otherwise it could have been located and returned to him....
@@cynicalminion He sat on a speaker and asked Tim to hit a bass note so he could "feel the bass in my butt". Tim did and he stumbled off the speaker and said his eyesight went blurry. There's a video out there somewhere.
And yeah, Austin has a cat named "Dawg". Sort of. Dawg is kind of a neighborhood cat, so even though he often sleeps and eats at Austin's place, he isn't always there.
He and Amberly also have a cat named Winnie that they rescued when they were at a bash in Winnie, TX. Winnie had been rejected by her mother and was literally screaming, so tiny she didn't even have her eyes open yet. Amberly swore they were just rescuing her and weren't keeping her, and Austin was like, "I'm thinking that's not gonna happen." She's turned into a beautiful cat who loves to travel with them.
Rob had some* experience in College Musical Arts Program .... he has the Lower register and easier chest voice projection and rolling Rs and of course his silky smooth Mid Tenor vocal talent. Austin just hits the notes with practiced Lyrics (IN ITALIAN) as his challenge ..... the vocal, dynamic and higher part in solo or harmony is harder to hit cleanly .... but, then THAT IS WHY HE IS SO GREAT .... shear ability in the upper register. GBjj
Thank you for reacting. Rob said he studied opera in college but hasn't sung it in about 15 years. I read that he did this for his father who loves opera. This video brought Dad to tears. Austin was the mischief maker here and encourages Rob to do this video. Rob's nerves were for naught. They were awesome.
We've all been watching reactors react to this, just to see jaws drop. But, we've also been waiting on the "experts" (vocal coaches, trained vocalists, opera singers) to give their professional opinion. Of course, Rob & Austin aren't Pavarotti, but we needed confirmation (at least I!) that Rob and Austin did do justice to the song. Thanks much for your reaction and analysis!
Ah thanks so much 😁
@JenniferGlatzhofer love your Mickey earrings 😊
I have a graduate degree in piano, so I accompanied singers in training for 6 years. I thought Rob was right on point, and I was speechless. Austin, I thought got a little pop or broadway sounding here and there, but still was very good. For me, Rob's performance was eye-opening. I loved it
Austin did do a lot of musical theater from at least high school through college and beyond. I still loved to listen to this performance again and again.
That is my reaction as well. Austin is excellent, but it was more pop-sounding. Rob was amazing.
Rob's voice is so much lower, richer and warmer. These two are absolutely so flipping talented.❤️❤️❤️
Rob was so nervous about this. He hadn't done any serious operatic singing for 15 years. He had played with it while goofing around and he would do it for his father but he was so worried how people would react. I think he did a magnificent job.
When Rob and Austin look at each other reminds me of their glance in Ring of Fire on the Sing-Off before Tim hit that massive low note. Like Rob and Austin are say, "They have no idea what is coming."
Hahah oh nice!
Austin is watching Rob, taking his queues on timing from him.
Gotta remember. Austin is the master of ad-libs. Rob is more structured.
Hi. Finally the reaction I've been looking forward to. Thank you for a very balanced analysis and enthusiastic reaction. When I listen to this, Rob goes down Pavarotti's lane and Austin Bocelli's. That's the only way I can express how their voices affect me. Love that they did this. Beautiful.
Nessun Dorma is that one piece that even non-opera fans love.
I suddenly have a serious need of solo opera stuff from Rob
I agree. In Home Free I love his voice, but this has convinced me that he could have easily been one of history's greats, if he chose Opera as his primary genre.
I so love your reactions. Your breakdowns of what they're doing and knowledge is always spot on. I too had to go listen to Pava's version of this immediately afterward. I am still stunned at how well these two amazing singers did this! Thank you!
Ah yay! Thank you 😁
Rob hasn’t sang opera in like 15 Years (since university)…&, he’s done a wonderful job for not doing it for so long‼️ It was Austin who had to get Rob to do this with him…do believe they did an AMAZING job of it🔥❤️‼️ Thank you for your reaction ‼️
Rob studied and performed Opera in College so he has an edge over Austin. Austin was trained in musical Theater, so he did well from a training aspect. Quite a change from the norm for them, but great for them to try opera.
Austin attended Oklahoma City University. Their training covers both musical theatre and opera. A fine school that I wish I could have afforded to attend.
Austin said that he studied opera in college too.
I believe Rob was trained in Opera in his college days. I believe he said he hasn't sang Opera for 15 years.
Amazing!
Supposedly warmed up/re-trained his opera voice in 6 hours. I would guess it was over several days at the end of their last tour.
Wooohoooo I was hoping you would jump right on this. I KNOW you were blown away by our guys
Straight on it!
This is the reaction I've been waiting for. Appreciate your love of and knowledge of this piece...and in teaching us what is happening here.
😁😁
I love that Austin really wanted to show off this side of Rob! Rob's degree is in vocal performance so he had a lot of opera training. They are obviously both trained very very well!
Sorry, but pausing you to comment ahead. Those of us who simply specate reactors to see how they react to singers and groups have bee having a blast waiting on reactors to react. So far, out of 14 or so, 13 jaws have dropped to the ground. Ok, continue Jen. Oh my, this is fun for us.
Hahah good!
I am not a big fan of opera, but this caught me completely off guard, and it was very emotional to listen to. I caught myself reaching for the tissue many times during this performance. I applaud them both for letting us see this side. I absolutely loved it!! I loved your reaction, and watching your face throughout the entire performance.
I’ve been waiting for a trained musician to react to this. Both of them were incredibly nervous about the release! As someone who usually avoids opera, I have really enjoyed this.
Excited to hear your reaction for this one! Rob studied Opera as his major in uni.
Nice!
I've been checking frequently for your reaction to this! Thanks so much. I love your informed comments!
Thank you 😊
Great analysis of this Jen. Nice to hear someone who's knowledgeable enough to review this. My mother was a great opera fan and I was the only one who'd accompany her to a performance, and I've always been grateful for the exposure;which hardly qualifies me as an expert. Like others here, when I listened to it, my impression was that Rob was singing opera(as suited his training) and Austin was performing musical theatre(as suited his training); although he apparently had Rob give him a crash course in the genre, so it came across kind of as Teacher/Student. Still lovely to hear; them singing and you intensely watching/listening and giving honest voice. In all the ugliness in the world right now, a couple of minutes beauty...but then that seems to be the men of Home Free's mission.
Glad you enjoyed my reaction Jen. Obviously nowhere near as indepth as yours but then this is why I love your reactions so much as I learn so much even after assisting in thousands of auditions for theatre over the years. I did take piano theory about 100 years ago but I decided drums sounded better lol
You do the best reactions as usual. Could not wait to hear and see your reaction to this. They are so versatile it's ridiculous. Is there something they can't sing?
Ah thank you😊
Yup. OH! 😮 🥰. Rob just floored me. I had heard Austin sing more classically before so wasn’t as surprised.
Great reaction, Jen!!
Yes this is wow, wow and wow.. This is insane. It is 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..
In their video, Rob comments: Hope y’all enjoy this very different direction from us. Big thanks to Austin for making me come back to this style of music after such a long break. If you like, feel free to share it out! SO! He clearly has an operistic background! This, of course, should be checked out, but I think I'm not mistaken.
@Jennifer Glatzhofer… I get such joy out of the dichotomy of emotion versus analysis aspect of your reactions ..While your surname belies Teutonic roots the absolutely wonderful expressions on your face had me suspecting the Italian in your makeup as well .. Were you to actually know me you’d know that my 70+ years experience and innate awareness as a naturally gifted vocalist now rendered mute by cancer put’s me looking forward to your videos that are so much aligned with my feelings about Home Free… Subscribed and Thumbs Up as always..❤
Okay, what can't they sing genre wise???? Just WOW!!!!!!!! 🍧 icing with a cherry on top!!!!! Amazing doesn't even begin to define how I feel about these guys.................. Looking forward to seeing them in Salina, KS in December 2022!!!!!
I was lucky enough to see the Three Tenors perform in concert twice, once in the Skydome in Toronto and in a smaller stadium in Modena, Italy. I consider both of them to be highlights of my life, and I have never before or since seen so many thousands of people weeping tears of joy at Pavarotti's performance in his home town. The song still brings tears, and I was delighted with the performance from Rob and Austin.
Rob does in fact have Opera training, although he hasn't done any opera singing in 15 plus years. He simply gave me chills here.
I waited for your reaction because I know you “know” whether they nailed it or not. Thank you.
Jenn, I got the feeling you thought you might be lead down another Butts Medley and then the video starts and your still kind of lost. Then suit and ties, and they begin. Oh, wow the look on your face is priceless. May the guys of Home Free continue to surprise and amaze us all.
I loved that, "no!" Too short. I felt the same. This caught me by surprise. It was so beautiful and made me cry a little.😊
Major props to these two! I’m impressed. I always felt that Rob, especially, could have that capability. And Austin’s vocal on this was impressive as well.
Good reaction and analysis, Jen. I, too, am well acquainted with Pavarotti’s performances of Nessun Dorma. I saw him live in concert where this was his standard curtain call aria.
They were so brave! It was wonderful. Loved your reaction Jen. Rob studied opera in college….who knew?!! And as you said, Austin was classically trained so it was so nice to hear something different from them. Loved it! Wonderful voices. 🥰😍
Thanks for a wonderful reaction!
I’m so impressed by Rob’s versatile voice. Here he really connects us to the lyrics, being so gentle and loving on words like di speranza and che ti fa mia. At the end he is extremely bold with vincero. I remember someone asked Home Free in a Q&A who is the best singer of them and they all pointed to Rob.
Austin did a wonderful job as well, but we have heard more of him singing like this, for example in Bring Him Home. He has such a lovely unique tone in his voice.
Please do as much Home Free as possible, adding the solo work from Adam Chance, Austin Brown and Tim Foust in the mix.
I couldn't wait for your reaction to this beautiful song. I'm lucky enough that I've heard this song done many times & couldn't believe that the guys would try this. 30 minutes after it was posted they had over 800 views & almost all the comments were "breathless", brought goosebumps" & "tears". My brother & I were watching it & knew how the song ended. We waited with anticipation to see how they would handle the ending & far as I'm concerned they knocked it out of the park. I have wept every time I've watched this because to me it is so moving. Thank you so very much for your reaction & sharing your knowledge.
I'm so happy you reacted to this so quickly. I've been waiting for it. Thank you for your honest reaction. Imagine the smiles on Rob and Austin's face when they hear you are comparing them to Pavarotti.
If this is their "try" version, I can't even fathom if they "mastered" it. Loved this!
To me this is Austin's way of highlighting Rob's talent.
Love Rob's and Austin's versatility! Your reaction and analysis is top notch as always! Thank you.
Thanks!
No idea why TH-cam suggested your video but it was fascinating. Your review style is fun, and though technical it's not over this non-singer's head. How do you do that? Being able to provide examples of what you mean really helped. And, what the heck! Austin and Rob sing ... Opera? Stunning and brave.
Ah thanks so much!
Our men can sing ANYTHING!!! BRAVISSIMI!!
Austen talked Rob into doing this. Austin has trained in musical theater, Rob in vocal performance. Rob hasn't sung opera in 15 years, and was nervous about it. I'm so glad they did this.
Thank you for the great reaction. I was waiting for the trained opera singers to educate me on this one. I was gobsmacked by Rob's voice but I knew Austin had the theatre training... I just didnt have a clue about the tecnical aspects. I definitely got the emotional effect of this song because I cried when I first heard it. As I dont speak Italian, I had no idea what this was about. I got the translation, but needed your expertise to fully understand. Thanks very much.
Thank you 😊
Rob’s performance stunned me, so good. They are quite brave to attempt this type of singing with all the reactors and critics who will be weighing in on their performance.
Rob is that you? Oh my I literally dropped my drink watching this. Stunned lol. Excellent Excellent performance by both Rob and Austin.
This song makes me cry everytime I hear it. It's such a beautiful version of this song
I love this song! And now my two favorite tenors, that regularly don’t sing opera sing it! I was waiting for your reaction Jen. I just love the way you explain things! Thank you
I'm amazed at Rob, I wasn't expecting him to be so close to the original song!
I just watched them yesterday and got so filled with anticipation hoping someone would react to this and today, there you are! You did not disappoint! Opera is not my favorite but I do like some of it. I enjoyed listening to Elizabeth Zharoff sing opera ( The Charasmatic Voice ). One thing: I'm kind of glad that I have untrained, ignorant ears! I can enjoy some music in ignorant bliss because I don't notice most mistakes. Enjoyable reaction young lady!
Ah thank you!
I’m waiting for E do this one, hopefully we can get it done soon.
Astonishing, isn't it!! Who knew Rob was an opera singer?!?! I am an ignoramus regarding opera, but love this song. I have heard multiple performances by various performers (Pavarotti first, naturally) and love it so much that I have watched two complete performances of the full opera on TH-cam. Loved the Hong Kong version. But to hear Rob and Austin perform it... delicious. I rarely, rarely attend concerts because I don't like crowds, but I have seen Home Free twice! Thanks for reviewing this. My wife suspects that I watch your videos because you are so beautiful, but I genuinely appreciate the information you provide and the unpretentious way you communicate.
Rob majored in Opera.. He said its been 15 years since hes sang Opera
Rob has had opera training and Austin was actually pretty good. Thanks for your analysis Jen. I always learn something new.
My understanding is that Rob studied Opera in college…. Amazing talents …both! Love your reactions. Don’t mind the pauses at all. I’m a singer myself…. Learning a lot from you. Thanks so much! ❤
Your reactions surely brighten my day. Keep it up.
I was so excited that I was going to get to hear a full song in Rob’s dramatic operatic voice. And Austin sounded fantastic…what a treat for us. As always I enjoyed your reaction and analysis to this unexpected video.
Thank you!
I like how the old training shows with both of them. Rob has had operatic training..and it really shows. Austin's musical theater training shows, as well.
What I'm amazed at as how many people didn't realize or notice how much Rob holds back when he's singing with a group, so as to not overwhelm the sound.
I've never noticed that Rob has a twang, after all, he's from Minnesota. He sounds like my Mom. lol Like other's have said, he does have an opera background from his college days. I'm not an opera fan but I do love this.
Now *yours* was the reaction I've been waiting for and once again, you didn't disappoint.
Thank you 😊
Thank you 😊
When I saw the notification for this I felt a sudden urge to high five someone but there was no one around 😂
I’ve been dying to watch your reaction/analysis since their video premiered. And you did not disappoint. Thank you for your insightful analysis. I enjoyed it as always 😊
Ah thanks 😊
Great review, thanks. I was waiting for your review
I have been saying it for years now and this is proof that all of Home Free are Angels. WOW !!!!!!!!!!👏👏👏👏👏👏👏❤❤❤❤😀😀😀😀
Thank you so much for your feedback on their performance...I had no doubt that Rob could handle this even after a 15-year hiatus, but I'm thoroughly impressed with both of them. This is indeed a masterpiece for them. I also loved your reaction as I have so many others, but it's really validating for me that you enjoy their effort.
Jen, did you notice that Austin was watching Rob for his onsets, especially at that last 'Vincero'. He was taking his queues from Rob in this.
I'd suggest that your next reaction should be Voiceplay's most recent release 'The hall of the mountain king' it's hilarious and you'll get a big kick out of it.
Absolutely do a reaction to the newest VoicePlay song. It's so entertaining, especially Layne.
@@silverfeigner I watched Elizabeth Zarhoff's analysis of this song yesterday, and she couldn't stop laughing(she giggles a lot anyway when she's enjoying a video), so it would be nice,Jen, to see what you think; I think it was amazing.
@@joelbolden8457 wait till Jen gets to the burp-boxing
Hall of the Mountain King, Voice Play is hysterical but soo soo good .. really is 'voice" "play"
Look., Austin left his hat for you! You should go get it. This is very different, and I'm excited they tried it.
Wow! Rob, is that really you singing-amaze balls for this new side of your voice!! I was a fan before and always wondered why you weren't featured as much as Austin and Tim-You Should Be!! What a gorgeous voice. I'm sorry Austin but I would have loved this to be a Rob solo. However, I love, love, love your other songs Austin.
I laughed at your concerns before listening to this one! And then had those same concerns about how you might react to their singing. It's nice to see that you liked it even while still judging it according to the music style.
😊
That was amazing. Thanks for a great reactioin/review.
Thank you!
Oh this is great too as always love to da Jenn
Loved this!! I was waiting to hear your reaction to it. I’ve never really listened to opera before so I don’t know if they “sang opera” or not. I enjoyed it and you seem to like it as well, so maybe some more opera in my future. Thanks as always Jen, great job!!
Thank you 😁
Thanks Jen! I'm not sure but I don't think Austin has had training in opera only classical theater. Rob had training in opera but not sang it in 15 years. Both were very nervous during the premier live chat. Austin approached Rob for the project and had to convince him to do it. Both really stepped out of their comfort zone for this. I think they were marvelous and enjoyed it thoroughly! I become very emotional when listening to it and I'm still crying every time I hear them. I appreciate your breakdown and knowledge. I agree with you that it took a lot of bravery to even attempt this and cannot begin to imagine how they felt when considering to release it to the world. I've always admired and respected all of our guy's but this performance has raised the bar to an undescribable level. Home Free never ceases to amaze me! Incredibly talented and I'm so very blessed to have them in my life. They have literally changed my life for the better! God bless you! Sending love from South Georgia USA ♥️😀🍟
I saw someone else comment this about Rob on another reaction video to this performance:
"Rob graduated from a performing arts college and studied Opera and earned a degree in vocal performance but had not done it in 15 years."
Ooh nice!
Those of us who love Home Free and all of Chris Rupp's work, already knew that Rob is a classically trained opera singer.
This shows once again why I love these guys so much. Always good for a surprise, versatile, a little bit crazy and so talented - just perfect :-)
It is soooooooooooo absolutely outrageously cool hearing the boys do this...Just WOW!!
Your face 😂 exactly how so many of us no doubt looked the first time we heard this.
It’s my favorite opera song… such a beautiful piece of music. 💕
I had read somewhere that Rob excelled at opera while at university. I love that they tried something different. LOVE IT! I always learn from your reactions. Thank you!
Thank you. Yours is the first actual analysis of this performance I have seen from a vocal coach so far.
Oh I think Andrea Bocelli gives Pavarotti solid competition on this one 🙂
Homefree did not specialize in country music until the SingOff talked them into doing it for their competition in 2013. Tim and others have talked about it in interviews.
What a singer's musical training is can be very different from what they end up doing professionally. Case in point, Avi Kaplan is a formally opera trained basso profundo who sang pop acapella in Pentatonix and now sings his own compositions in folk rock. Maybe we should get Avi to do a bass aria out of Cosi fan Tutte (The Magic Flute) by Mozart next?
Rob is an opera trained tenor. Rob hasn't done singing on his own.
Austin is also formally trained but sings in more of a musical theater and pop classics direction. He developed his channel as did Tim Foust as their income sources during the pandemic quarantine with no touring for live shows which Rob and Austin used to release this performance.
Oh yes, Avi and Rob together, LOL...
@@npilot4445 bass and tenors don't normally sing arias together in opera. One or the other and bass parts are missing which is part of Avi and Tim Foust's motivation to write their own music.
Sad. Well we can always have rob and Maggie sing ❤️
I loved this! So it turns out that Rob studied opera in college and Austin is classically trained so I expected their performance to as good as any Home Free song always is - but not this good! I thought it was beautiful, wonderful, and incredible!
Love your reaction. This is one of my favorites and have heard it sung by several tenors. There’s only one Pavarotti but Rob and Austin did a great job.
As soon as I learned this video existed, I've been checking to see when you'd react. No I wasn't one of the people blowing up your DMs, but I'm soo glad you did this. Thanks! Yup. They're amazing. 😉 All the bestest!!
Haha thank you 😊
I have been super excited to hear your take on this, Jen!
As always Jen, I LOVE YOUR ANALYSIS Videos.....I learn so much ! Rob does have operatic training in college, but told Austin he hadn't sung opera for 15 years....I'm sure they trained for this but not too too much. I am living proof they influenced me to explore more Opera.....so Rob & Austin just opened up a genre of music I was self closed off too....they lit a fire under me to explore it more !
I’ve watched their video about 20 times and I’ve teared up every time. This song has alway hit me a certain way, it’s just so sonically pleasing….
absolutely love this. Totally caught off guard. Brilliant and lets not forget your reaction was awesome
Ah thanks!
Rob did study some opera in college where Austin was studying musical theatre. They aren't Pavarotti but I think they did a great job considering their backgrounds.
Jenn, Rob was actually trained in Opera. They made me cry it was so beautiful. Truly enjoyed watching your reaction and your analysis.
Beautiful voices. Rob's is rich and Austin, more bright. I love Austins tenor, and as he develops the sound it will be even more captivating, gripping. So beautiful how they combine their voices.
Glad you got to this fairly quick, Here again they blow your mind.
I really enjoyed this groundbreaking performance. I loved the courage and passion to explore something new and different. I have no musical expertise of any kind, but I am awed by what I heard. I have nothing but respect and admiration for Rob and Austin. I am glad Jen that you seemed to enjoy their performance as well ! Greetings from the Mississippi Gulf Coast.
I have been waiting in eager anticipation for your reaction of this Jenn. As usual, you did a fantastic job!! Thanks again for the expertise and perspective. 🙂
Thanks!
Your reaction seemed kind, respectful and spot on. I'd been waiting for a reaction from someone trained in voice. Thank you for the excellent job!
Thank you!
From all reports that I have seen, Rob and Austin were pretty nervous about doing this as well. I have been waiting for your reaction. Thank you.
Nice Jen :)!!! I'm not an Opera fella, nor do I know anything ... We do get a few pieces from Austin (solo stuff) that has given hint or leaned toward his operatic ability(s)/sound likeness. Rob on the other hand - well .. a surprise/not a surprise (for me anyway). Knowing he's an absolute beast ... I mean, we get so much different things out of him (variety) ... and he kills it. Here -- such power ... and I believe he was just getting warmed up!!! I think there is more there; honestly, believe he's holding back some (and not to over-power) - very controlled. If this style were more regular -- it would become so much more refined and freer ... Air & Diaphragm! Thought it was tremendous. Yeah, I do have that smirk on my face!!! And yes, I did watch most all clips of Pavarotti's performances (for comparison). Hmmm -- Could Pavarotti pull off Country??? :) Thank You!!! Be Safe
Thank you for reacting to Rob and Austin's singing of this beautiful song. I enjoyed how you explained the it all. Again thank you.
I was waiting for your analysis with baited breath! I thought they both did a great job. Rob was who I enjoyed most, as I loved his operatic quality. And like you, I went directly to hear Pavarotti after I listened to this video.
Legitimate goosebumps as soon as they start. They are fantastic. Rob could’ve fooled me if I didnt know he was singing. Id take a whole cd of this, but im weird like that
