Chance was in charge of this arrangement.
I think he did an exceptional job.
Agreed =)
Chance likes the use of black and white.
👏👏👏👏👏👍👍👍
For some incredible harmonies I'd recommend "How Great Thou Art" and "Auld Lang Syne". Both are 5 part harmonies with no vocal percussion. Both will probably move you to tears.
100%! for #homefree's signature organ-like harmonies.
Agree!! Also I Can't Outrun You. I consider that a masterpiece.
You should check out some of the videos they did during lockdown.
I think you may be surprised by what they did from multiple locations
Brothers in Arms is awesome too!
Our boy will be stimming the whole time with that . I don’t. Wanna kill the man. But you sir are correct .
Home Free’s cover of Dire Straits “Brothers in Arms” uses the same cords at the end as this one. If you haven’t heard it yet, do check it out.
5 voices + Close harmonies = shivers. This is a Master class in a capella singing.
The precision of breathing in sync, the lockstep of going from unison, to harmony, back to unison, to harmony, the arrangement where several points the baseline hangs on to notes for extended time while the other parts are coming in stages is so incredible, it just like having the most exquisite high end sweets you can buy. The ear candy this presentation provides is so remarkable that I can not think of another to compare it to. ❣
Tim Foust bass - Misty Mountains with Peter Hollens. Wow!
They are so incredibly in sync with each other - the on- and off-set's are so clean it sounds like a single multilayered voice. This song showcases it amazingly.
Another you would have a field day with harmonies is their take on Brothers in Arms - it is mind-blowing for me how "just" 5 voices can produce a sound simmiliar to a pipe-organ.
It’s definitely worth listening to the Crosby, Stills and Nash original - their harmonies were always amazing.
You have become my favorite Home Free reactor! Your reactions are the same way I feel!!
Another fantastic one is Do You Hear What I Hear. Adam Rupp did the arrangement on this one.
Not sure if you've reacted yet, but Home Free singing 'How Great Thou Art' is a eargasm for people who appreciate harmony.
You're welcome 😊🎶🇦🇺
Having a good set of headphones really does it justice.
This is a studio recording. As their voices are recorded separately, the producer/mixer can ensure everything exactly matches.
But there is a version of this song sung live in concert. And yes, they are very much in sync.
And Tim can hold that note on 'Hello'.
Although the recordings show how good their voices are, it is the ability to do these things live that really show how fantastic they are. And the off-mic performance of How Great in Kearney should be mind-bending for anyone who recognizes how difficult it is. Is it perfect? No. Is it still stupendous, given the conditions? Hell, yes.
I knew you would love this one 😊
This is one of of their masterpieces
You like choral music you should check out Home Free’s version of Oh Holy Night ( I know it’s Christmas music but… ) it’s perfect
I agree with you...the only problem with this song was it wasn't long enough. They are incredible together!
So happy TH-cam popped your channel up on my recommendations. This and Home Free's rendition of Dire Straits "Brothers in Arms" happen to be my all-time Home Free favorites. "Brothers in Arms", another 5-part harmony that exemplifies the extraordinary talent that is Home Free will shake you to your core. Thank you for an eloquent and insightful reaction, looking forward to more, especially with Home Free.
OMG I AM SO EXCITED!!! THANK YOU FOR REACTING TO THIS!!!
Hope you will check out "Brother's in Arms" by HF, as well!! xx
I watch a lot of reactors. I think your reaction to this song is my favorite, probably because it's so relatable. I think I was making the same faces you were the first time I heard this. You probably would really enjoy analyzing their version of "Brothers In Arms." It's even more breathtaking, or equally breathtaking, at the very least. Thank you for reacting to the guys again. They're such wonderful musicians.
This is originally by Crosby, Stills, & Nash, whose first live performance was the original Woodstock. Their songs ALWAYS had incredible harmonies. This is one of my favorites of theirs, the only drawback being that it's way too short, lol. Home Free didn't cover this song; they upgraded it, especially going from 3-part harmony to 5-part. I was so excited when i saw that you reacted to this because i knew it would be a great, joyous video, and you did not disappoint!! I'm glad you like it as much as we do!!
For me, a HomeFree "masterpiece ." ❤🥰
That is a master class for a capella perfection. Pure beauty of the voice.
They performed this live, off mic at the Ryman. There are YT videos from the show. Amazing!
Oh, you really reacted to this one! You thoroughly enjoyed this one to the max! Lol This is in my top 10 favorite covers from Home Free. Chance is the one who recommended/suggested Home Free record this one, and I am so happy they agreed. It’s one of their best. 😂Those unisons are perfection! The harmonies, the timing, and everything is so scrumptious! Lol Would love to see you react to their Dire Straits cover of “Brothers In Arms”, and the great gospel song “How Great Thou Art” is gorgeously done by them, too! There are so many great songs (originals and covers) from Home Free. You can’t go wrong with any of them. Really!
I think you would also enjoy Home Free's version of "In The Blood".
Home Free is my favorite group. They did a great job on this song. The harmonies are great and I am glad that Chance started this song. I can hear Tim's bass. 😊❤❤❤❤❤❤
To me their best harmonies can be heard in Brothers In Arms.
I absolutely love this. One of my favorites. Loved your analysis. Home Free is known for tight harmonies and this song really showcases that. 😄😍
Hahaha! I'm a big Home Free fan and this is the first time I've ever come across your channel and that was some reaction! I've listened to this probably around 100 times and thought wow he's getting excited 50 seconds in... he hasn't heard anything yet! Everyone complains about the song being too short, it should run about 20 minutes. I will check out more of your stuff.
I’ve been waiting for you to fall into this one! Watching you listen through the first time is almost as magic as hearing it for the first time myself. ❤️🎶
Pure harmony!! I definitely wish the song had lasted longer!! Beatbox or Adam Rupp sings in the song with the group! He also sings with everyone in old Lang Lang!! Another one of your harmonies! How great thou art;… Angels we have heard on high;..Oh Holy Night; & Do you hear what I hea”. Arranged by bearboxer Adam Rupp! Since you also beatbox listen to Adam Rupp’s drum solo! In 9 to 5… All five members a beatboxs together!! Nice reaction again!
I like the way you explain about the way Home Free sings this song. Helplessly Hoping. 😊😊😊
Thanks for reacting to this song. Home Free does such a good job with this song. Their tight harmonies give me goosebumps! ❤
Home Free can be magical!
That was some kind of reaction! Really enjoyed it! Thanks!
Knowing how much music is being altered digitally to be “perfect”, I love the live version of this - performed without mics. 💜💜💜 The invasion of AI & pitch correction has me questioning everything. I’ve seen Home Free live 3 times so I know they have the skills but still use pitch correction. 💜💜💜
Home Free is my favorite vocal group. They are simply amazing. I had the pleasure of seeing them live and they are really that good! Back in the day I was in college studying music and voice. So glad to see someone like myself who gets so much joy from music. You should check out the original song by the 70's group, Crosby, Stills and Nash. Also, Teach your Children Well is another great song by them. Keep the videos coming!
Have you seen their cover of dire straights “brothers in arms?”. 5 part harmony. A masterpiece
This is such a beautiful version of this song. Love these boys❤️❤️❤️❤️
Love your enthusiasm! ❤
I’m so happy you chose this one! In my opinion their 5 part harmonies are unmatched. Just stunning. I too love dissonance and syncopation which is why I love Leonard Bernstein’s music for both West Side Story and Chichester Psalms which I had the honor of performing with the All Eastern Chorus as a soprano in High School. Love your reactions and can’t wait for the next one! Have a great day!
love home free, they are the best! glad you enjoyed.
Oh my goodness, you are incredible. Your love of beautiful harmonies is captivating. Home Free are in indeed magical.
Chance directed this one (as well as "I Can't Outrun You"). It's a mini master-class in acapella. No beatboxing in this one just gorgeous singing & terrific harmonies. Thanks for playing this & your comments. Love from a Canadian subscriber.
This is one of the songs they have performed off-mic in concert. They've also done How Great Thou Art and Auld Lang Syne. It really shows how good they are at staying in unison with each other. You don't have to react to them, but it's definitely worth a look after you have seen the studio versions. Plenty of videos on TH-cam showing them live.
I always say this is a master class of precision and harmony. They are 5 very awesome musicians!
I grew up listening to Crosby, Stills & Nash & had their album with this song Helplessly Hoping. Absolutely loved them & their harmonies. This song is full of alliterations. Home Free more than does justice to all the songs they cover. And this song is perfection to me with the 5 part harmonies. A true masterpiece! I can't say enough about how great these guys are & humble while still staying respectful to the original song.
Bro! I know! So freaking good!❤❤❤❤
I learn so much from you. Thank you 🙏🏻
One of their best 👌 ❤❤
This is simply a masterpiece. I listen to this in the dark with headphones. ❤
I am always happy when Home Free sings. I am especially happy on the rare occasion Adam sings with them. Thanks for the Home Free reactions.
There just isn't much to say about this. So good harmonies, so well sung! So different voices, but still one. So short but o so powerful
I’m so happy you loved this. I so hopped you would! You did an amazing analysis of the vocals. Thank you! Another 5 part vocal would be How Great Thou Art. A fun one with a rhythm break down is Can’t Stop the Feeling. I had to sub so I wouldn’t miss your reactions! 😁💕🎶
And I would like you to consider Do You Hear What I Hear? It was arranged by Adam Rupp and I believe that his beatboxing is amazing.
Yes! And also he can notice that Austin also beatboxes in that one. And then Tim! That song just drives me crazy with glee.
#HOMEFREE...so good!
I love the mood of their arrangement. I feel that’s why a cappella is so pleasing to my ears. You always seem so excited by what you’re hearing with Home Free! Someday you will melt in your chair and be near speechless. I want to witness that! Thank you for listening to the Home Fries 🍟 and doing this sooner than later. 🎶 Cyd
Home Free certainly knows ho to harmonize and the amount of precision needed and always executed is astounding.
Another 5-part harmony is their cover of Brothers in Arms. It's hautingly beautiful.
I don't think you have reacted to one of their funny videos yet, have you? They have so many, but the music never suffers from their antics. There's their infamous Butts Remix, but also Thank God I'm A Country Boy or All About That Bass. And many, many more.
One of my favorites ❤.
Thank you Daniel, love your reaction.
Im SO SO going to miss sweet Austin! Perfection! My 4 siblings & I use to harmonize to this growing up! 🥰♥️🎶
Daniel, you are an incredible reactor. Really enjoy your critiques!
Im SO SO going to miss sweet Austin!
I admit, my first reaction to your statement that you had never heard this song before, was what rock have you been living under? But then I realized I'm old and you were probably born before CSNY first recorded it. Having said this, I really love this version, Home Free brings it all ear candy. I agree- why couldn't we just hear this for hours.
❤🤠#HomeFree. Perfection 😍.Great reaction. 🏠🍟
Not even joking: 1) I have followed your HF reaction for a time now and 2) this was a recorded reaction. If neither was true I would have been calling 911 at the beginning because I was so worried about your physical reactions. I am happy to discover you are fine and this performance is recognized so well. Thank you ( pls excuse bad grammar- bad brain day)
You should look for the two country trying Opera They are Fantastic ❤
Check out their version of How Great Thou Art. It will blow you away. These guys are so incredibly talented. If you noticed the beat boxer was singing. He has a beautiful tenor voice. He also sings in How Great Thou Art. You should check out When a Man Loves a Woman, Listen to The Music. Also, you might like to check out their cover of End of The Road by BOYZ II Men. They also have a lot of originals. This rabbit hole runs very, very deep. Absolutely love your reaction/analysis.
Enjoyed your reaction
I know this song is not humorous, and Home Free's performance is utterly magnificent; but I laughed through your whole first run through it. Just watching your face! Hearing your amazement! It made me so happy. I knew you would love this. There's much more where this came from. Please keep reacting to Home Free. Gail L.
I was worried. U looked like i were being electrocuted with those harmonies lol
I really enjoyed your reaction which was both informative and educational. Home Free covers all genres. You can't go wrong with anything they sing. While you're in an a cappella frame of mind, please take some time to check out Pentatonix, VoicePlay and Voctave. You specifically mentioned that you enjoy larger groups. So give a listen to Voctave, an ensemble of 11 performers (no beatboxer) with prior and current connections to Voices of America in Disney's Epcot. To get an idea of their talent, check out their Disney Princess Medley featuring each of the women and then their Disney Heroes and Villains Medley featuring each of the men. They do much more than Disney. Listen to their rendition of Somewhere from West Side Story. There is so much great a cappella out there... happy listening!!!
Love that you loved this! You should listen to the original too. The cut up words were true to that original, but I like Home Free's version way better! I have two suggestions for you! Home Free covering Dire Straights Brothers in Arms. Have tissues! It's powerful and emotional. Also Austin singing solo, Bring Him Home from Les Miserables. That song is also powerful, and the ending is spectacular!
Check out Soprano Notes, another reactor, she analyses this in her masterclass and got ahold of their sheet music. Brothers in Arms is another tour de force.
Nice job. I still like Girl Named Tom's version the best. This was very pretty

Glad to see you going down the rabbit hole ... keep on ... many more magical moments await you!! Yes, these guys are VERY talented. But I get tired of hearing reactors, and others, say "they are so talented." Talent is the foundation, but what makes them world class is their hard work, individually and as a group. And their willingness to put their hearts into each song as they convey emotional messages.
Related to that topic, let me digress - I fy ou want more magic, chck out Eva Cassisy. Start with Over the Rainbow and Autumn Leaves. I guarantee you will thank me for the suggestion, and will understand why I mention her in comparison to Home Free.
Please react to Voctave. As far as choral style acapella, they are magical!
(Just don't start with the disney love medley - I think it's actually one of their weaker songs since it's one of their first together)

Check out Ring of Fire Home Free featuring Avi Kaplan
If you like this you'll like "Auld Lang Syne" by the boys, or "Try Everything- Zootopia"
Only thing wrong with this one is that it just doesn't last 10 minutes! HF five part harmonies are ridiculously awesome!
Time for Mayday yet?
Ya know, that's my only complaint about this song, even the original. I don't have 20 mins of it.
Great reaction, you have got to do there version of bothers in arms. Another killer 6 part harmonies no beat boxing and it’s incredible. 😊
The main problem with this arrangement is that it if far too short.
Musical art. And way too short!
And they are singing with no vibrato....
