    Now you need to check out "Two country singers try to sing opera". its found on Austin Brown's channel. Just so you will know they are not just country! Austin and Rob will surprise you even if you don't like opera like me.

    It's a misnomer to call Home Free a country band.
    HF auditioned for the show 'The Sing Off' a few times and did not make the cut. They performed pop at the time. The shows producers stated they needed a different 'hook' for the show. They offered HF the chance to perform as a unique country acapella group. They performed...they won. Subsequently they stayed with the country edge to get known to the public. Their many collaborations were with country acts.
    Tim has stated many times he did not want to perform country. But you go what pays the bills. In the ensuing years HF, as their fame/ talent has gotten a following, they broke away from being 'country' and set forth their talent in numerous genres.
    So let's recall the collective abilities of Home Free.
    -- 5 lead singers
    -- 5 tenors
    -- 3 baritones
    -- 2 bass
    -- 1 basso profundo
    -- 5 beat boxers/vocal percussionists
    -- 1 EXCEPTIONAL beatboxer/drum kit/ vocal percussionist
    -- 5 guys proficient in various genres: (Pop/Country/R&B/Rock/Gospel/Rap/Blues/Musical theater/Comedy/Holiday/Doo Wop/AND NOW Opera..Opera!!/dancers-in- training 😉 )
    Oh, and I would venture to say they present upgrades 'not' covers.
    Look for Austin's channel. This last week the song reactor channels are innudated with the "Country Boys sing opera"
    Sample this offering...no other group is as versatile.

I've only watched it a few times because I cry every time this song is played, always have. But the one for George Jones absolutely breaks me. I sob and sob until I can't breathe.

    Vince Gill wrote such a beautiful song and Home Free more than did it justice! I hope that you will react to Home Free's version of "Take Me Home Country Roads". It's nothing like the one you already reacted to. It's a perfect blend of country/gospel/r&b. Home Free waited for about 5 yrs. before they recorded it - they wanted to make sure the arrangement was perfect. It was/is. Thanks Chris! 🖤🍟

    Unfortunately some people can't differentiate their hatred for war from their hatred of the men and women that fought them. They need to realize, that no one like wars, but they happen, sometimes fought for a very good cause. And for that cause, the men and women that served, sometimes came home damaged mentally, physically, or not at all. Giving their lives for the betterment of others. There is no greater sacrifice that to give your life so others can live.

    Years ago in the late 1960's, my father who was career military and had just retired, was at the local VFW on 4th of July. He was cornered by a reporter, and was asked, how could you go and fight wars. Why would you do this?. He stood up and in his Sargent's voice, said - " I did it so idiots like you can ask stupid questions like that" she had no further comments. It made it to TV that evening, one of my favorite memories of my father. Your comments about veterans at the end, reminded me of that day.

    So beautifully sung by Rob with so much emotion that it touches your heart and soul. Because if you can sing as well, as it reaches only to my ears it's not good enough for me. But this is so perfect. Beautiful cover with respect for the original. They just give it a Home Free twist like Tim's piece with Amazing Grace. So good harmonies and great bass in the background .. And then that video, so emotional!!
    My father came out of the war alive after 4 years in a Japanese camp. Often in isolation. With the help of a fellow inmate, he survived. But it still bothered him physically and mentally. He was hard on us. We were not allowed to show our emotions and weakness, otherwise they would get us. After all, he himself had survived the war that way. In 1969, 3 days before my 6th birthday, he died from the physical effects of the war. He was only allowed to live to be 50 years old.
    Amazing Grace was sung at his funeral. One of his favorite songs that he often sang as a pastor.
    By the way, though you may not like opera try Austin Brown and Rob Lundquist on Austins channel: Two country singers try singing opera "Nessun Dorma ".. You"ll be shocked

Two of my brothers came to take me home when my father went to the hospital do to a massive heart attack triggered by cancer. we arrived in Baltimore 15 minutes after he passed. I have always regretted not being there to say goodbye.
    My father was a WW II Army veteran and the two brothers who came to pick me up were Navy veterans. Another one of my brothers was also a Navy veteran who served in Vietnam. And the tradition goes on, My son was an Army veteran. He served in the Iraq war and the Afghanistan war.

Home Free is amazing with this song but find, when coupled with the video, to be just too overwhelming.

The 'church organ' effect of Home Free's five-part harmonies is stunningly soul-stirring.

    A lot of people claim to not like “Country Music”, and perhaps think it unsophisticated and “hokey”. Some of it may be, yet what other genre can reach the inner, true, emotions of your soul? Some may focus on “the beat”, the rime, how much vulgarity can be used, but nothing can get to you like a song that goes straight to the heart. That is funny, reflective, or heart wrenching Country.

    I always get goosebumps when they sing songs like this. Check out their version of How Great Thou Art. Adam even sings a verse in it. I was fortunate enough to see them in Stockton last week. They were simply amazing.

    Your comments while reviewing the video touched me deeply. I served during the Vietnam era when anyone in uniform was given a hard time. My father served in WWII and Korea. A grandfather served in WWI. Only lately have people started thanking me (a woman Marine) for my service. I still think ‘where were your thanks back then?’

      It was so sad on the reception Viet Nam Veteran's were given when coming home. It was utterly disgraceful. A very heartfelt thanks to you for your service!

    I lost my 88yo father in March. The man did everything in life, including serving in the Armed Forces.
    He had a profound love of music & this is my go to song for him.
    I the perfect song for a loved one that’s passed on. Bless them all.

      Love that you have that love for our Armed Forces. So sorry to hear about the loss of your dad. Sounds like a wonderful guy.

    Yay!!! I feel so lucky i get to see you react to another Home Free video so soon after your last one!!! This song is sung with so much heart it brings tears to my eyes every time i hear it. Thank you for sharing with us Larry! We love our veterans and military!

    So glad you got to this amazing song although I could tell it was hitting you pretty hard. I felt the same way when I first heard Vince Gill sing this but it really hits me hard hearing HomeFree perform this because I know how they especially honor our Veterans. I had an uncle who went to the service World WarII and is MIA. Left a bride of only 2 months. Vocals absolutely beautifully done.😪

    People who avoid Home Free because they "don't like Country music" certainly miss out. I'm happy you are reacting to this one!
    This song always makes me emotional--and this video tells the military story so well. Another 🎯 on my ❤️ by our Home Free fellas.

    You aren't the first one to be moved by this Home Free cover of this Vince Gill song, myself included. You should check out a Vince Gill live performance of this song. Very moving, both versions.

    Amazing reaction to an emotionally charged song, performed brilliantly by HF. If you get the chance, and you want emotional songs that break your heart, try Johnny Cash - Hurt, or Eric Clapton - Tears in Heaven (written for his young son who died tragically). Thanks for your channel. Always look forward to seeing your next videos.

    Hey Larryshair, if you get a chance, react to Austin and Rob singing opera “Dessie Dorma”. It’s amazing!

    Vince Gill wrote this for his brother. Check out his version Patty Loveless. Bring Kleenex. Home Free really does this well.

    Just found your channel yesterday and have listened to many a reaction. My husband was a veteran, and though he survived the deployment he had, he was even more patriotic for the rest of his life. Thank you for your words and the emotions behind it. Such an appropriate time for me to have come upon this reaction since tomorrow is Veteran's Day.

    Angelic Rob is perfect lead for this song. Appreciate your reaction. Now I must highly recommend that you watch the video from Austin Brown’s channel of him and Rob Lundquist performing “Nessum Dorma “. Rob will blow your mind. His voice and delivery are delicious.
