#HomeFree #AmericanPie #DonMcLean
"I'm here to entertain people. . To make them feel good." "They're not there to make me feel good" A true musician for sure.
I've discovered Home Free about a week ago; I've been down a rabbit hole in here ever since and ordered three CDs. 'Timeless' was the first to arrive and I want to give a shoutout to Darren. This was the best produced and balanced album I've heard in years and my stereo is very unforgiving, it has put me off many an album I used to love because you hear all the flaws.
No flaws here 👍🏼.
I found them on here right before they went on the Sing Off 2014 I think was the year and i have loved them since.
@@dustyenglish6650 Me, also! Saw them in Concert, well worth the cost! Can hardly wait until they are back in concert! I am going!!!!!
Welcome to the very deep Rabbit Hole.
@@edithdavis2848 Thanks, I haven't come up for air yet and I have no intention to 😁.
@@danielahitstheroad Good call.
I'm so excited that Don choose Home Free to record Bye, Bye American Pie with for the 50th Anniversary of the song. He could have chosen anyone but he chose Home Free. So happy for you guys. 😄😍❤
Anybody else know this is going to be great before they even watch it?? Ahh! I love Home Free!!
THIS is going to be so awesome, Who DOESN’T love Home Free? Seriously... who?
They sure touch you heart and soul
Me
They're great but I don't love em
@@GreatLakesLogger if you don't like home free than why are you on their page
@@tannaeasterling604 I'm a but more reserved with my language i guess. I like their music.
@@GreatLakesLogger I love their music!
Austin - this is a huge deal!
Tim just casually sipping coffee
This is the most perfect song for them even the Bassline.
This song is iconic I grew up listening to Don Mclean. I hope they do it justice.
Home Free totally did it Justice.
I have listened to this version several times and shared it with many of my friends.
Woah I didn’t know Darren had such a good voice!
Darren is a Very good singer, actually he has a exellent voice.
You should try listning to The Blenders, where he is a member.
@@hellefur6631 cool!!
I remember Tim saying it was annoying cause he would sing out an arrangement for them sometimes and he could sing as high as Austin and as low as Tim
@@GreatLakesLogger Both Tim and Darren have insane ranges. Having both of them in the same room is actually pretty freaking amazing. There are many classic Blenders songs that I've always loved that I found out years later that Darren sang the lead on, and I was blown away.
@@GreatLakesLogger that’s funny 😆
i remember when this song came out on the radio, his song was all the rage back then, i discovered Home Free 2 years ago and 4 concerts later, i'm a dedicated home fry...
Im so glad Don is in it, would be a shame otherwise cause u know they're gonna kill it!
Love this song and can't wait to hear home free do it.
One of my all time favorite songs. This will be great
I am so excited. Love this song and love you guys Great combination.Thank you Don McLean for writing such an iconic song. Congrats on the golden play button. It is well deserved. Keep em coming guys Much love and God Bless ❤️
I just heard "When A Man Loves A Woman"....I just love it!!!!!! Austin really hits it out of the park with that one!
Wow this is crazy guys. I was listening and singing this whenever it played of the radio when I was a teenager and now that I'm 70 it still brings back them old memories and it is still one of my all time favorite songs! I just know you guys will will do it justice!! God Bless!!!
I've always loved this song. Can't wait to hear this arrangement, and with McLean singing with them? It's going to be magical.
LOVE this song!! Super excited to see what Adam Rupp does with the beats!!! Gunna just go ahead and hit that like button so I can watch again and again!!
Don’t forget, you can hit the SAVE button and it will be in your FAVES for easy access.
@@PoppiB Thankie fer the tip!!
Or maybe: he could sing once for all.
@@deanmarion5477 I believe he said in an interview that he won't sing solo because he wasn't vocally trained like the others. It is a shame because he does have a good voice
@@lorirobertson9254: look up and listen to: Lyane Stein ( from Voiceplay) vocal range video, that is why.
i want to thank you for this song it was my brother['s favorite and he's been gone a long time and it touches my heart and soul deeply thank you very much
Don has nothing to worry about. His voice is wonderful. This is a great version of the song. Thanks for recording it.
The one one who sang ‘the year the handshake died’ right at the very end hit the nail on the head! He could write an entire song about hugs, haircuts, businesses, schools and everything else that was disrupted. Just has made many of those in a high risk category self isolate.
The guys knock this song out of the park with Don McLean. It brought back awesome memories
I love Home Free so so very much! They deserve to be celebrated!
This brought back so many memories. Bon fire, Boonesfarm Strawberry Hill and American Pie
OMG I can't wait to hear this fully !!! This is going to be the BEST Home Free video ever !!! Featuring the man, the myth, the legend Don McClean....WOW !
the songs out, just no video yet, its on Spotify
@@lukedavies4732 yep I had my email with the link for spotify & have been listening to it for the last three days now.
I need you to force Darren to do more dancing all because of 1:08 them hips don't lie 😂👌
I always love to see these clips. I find the whole process very interesting, so thank you!
I'm so excited to hear this American Pie! We love Don McLean been to his concert years ago! Now the Home Free!!!!!
I also American Pie....loved to listen to it as a kid...the guys did it good.
I'm excited because I know this is going to be both awesome and hilarious. I hope Jimmy worked his magic on this video with his awesome editing.
Just listened to the song and that final verse gave me a fit of chills up and down my spine. I feel something in my soul and I can't find the words for it.
American Pie, the best pie.
WOW! This song really does have major meaning in my life! I can't wait to see it!
I just listened their cover a few hours ago in Spotify! OMG I am in awe! I can't comment on the audio video, so I'm here again.
It was a great cover! I think Chance and Tim's part just blew me away. I love Austin and Rob's parts, but Chance and Tim's part just... leave me grinning like crazy! Ofc, mr. McLean's intro and ending made this cover really, really wonderful!!
I can't love this enough... I had listened to their cover 5 times already. Definitely one of my TOP Favorites!
I can hardly wait to hear this. When I was in high school, my best friend and I would sing this song (yes, we knew all the words!) on the school bus on the way home each day. Neither of us could sing so everyone else kept trying to make us shut up! Good memories with this song....
This is a great view into the heart and mind of Don! What a great guy! I'm so impressed. Have loved this song for a very long time, but this version is really special!
Love the song! Don McLean is simply AWESOME!
Darren is great too. You Home Free guys are great 💗💗💗
Oh my god, a Geoff Castellucci Premier AND a home free one at the same time!!
I am so excited ☺️☺️☺️
Love from Italy guys! We are waiting!! 😘😘
Darren!!!! Love it whenever you’re in a BTS. And we love to hear you sing. Thank you!
My Husband will sing "Starry Starry Night" to me, instead of telling me he loves me. Thank God for Don McLean! You could not have picked ANYONE better to cover!
Darren, wow! You should be a singer! I’m so happy that you are a part of Homer Free!
He's a singer. Hes part of an amazing group called the Blenders. They are beautiful singers.
Big thumbs up can't wait! I'm here guys 👇💓
What a wonderful birthday present to me, tomorrow is my birthday! I won't be able to watch until I get off work but I'm looking forward to it. Love you guys!
@Maddy Fan of Home Free Thank you!
Happy Birthday
@@tinahuff7466 Thank you!
I'm so excited! I've been listening to Don McLean for a week now and I'm so happy to see that Home Free is going to collab with him! My all time favorite song of McLean are "Vincent" and "And I Love You so". It wod be great if HF do more collabs with him and with artists like him. And of course, we need to have a song with Darren with it❤️
Just downloaded the song. Wow. Both that Don McLean agreed to share/collaborate on his most iconic song, and that the result is so amazing. This one is definitely a winner! Nicely done.
I have watched this at least a dozen times (listened to the song many more) Don McLean is such a class act! So very respectful.
I can't wait to see the video!
Wow. I enjoyed this glimpse into the production! Darren is a treasure too! Can’t wait for the release of the song!! 😁❤️
So awesome to hear Don tell his story. I cannot wait to hear it. I've already listened on Spotify like 10 times. I love the original and also this version with Home Free. In my mind I am picturing the video with each of them singing with a living legend! 💖
Love Don McClain, and we’ve followed Home Free since 2013. I am looking so forward to this song!!!
congrats on the golden button boys!!!! LOVE IT! Keep up the good work!
Cant wait. Love you guys
Don McLean sounds awesome!!!
I am so excited to hear this!! I adore Home Free! My mom used to sing American Pie to me when I was little and it holds such an important place in my heart!!
I was in high school when his came out. I remember calling the radio station on different occasions while it was playing and nobody picked up. I began to speculate that the deejay put the song on when he had to go to the bathroom
Home Free is absolutely amazing, in everything they do! The RUclips award shows just how truly everyone enjoys them. Now Darren Rust, well like I said before, that man is brilliant. Don McLean, American Pie with Home Free? Wow! Excellently done. Bringing these classics forward is a beautiful piece of our history! Love what you all do! 🥰🎖 ♥️⭐️💫✨🌟⚡️♥️ Much Love~Austin here’s hoping you called Mom 🤗😘
My mom taught my siblings and I this song when I was 6 or 7 years old. So yeah it is quite a treat to hear my most favorite a capella group sing it.💝👍
50 Years Damn the Time pass, but. It is a Time less Peace of Music i Love it🙋🏻♂️🇨🇭🕺🥳
This was a great look into this absolutely amazing song.
I remember when ‘American Pie’ came out fifty years ago. Now history repeats itself. Just as relevant today as then. Home Free adds depth to the song.
Love this song and what a great version with these guys
One of my favorite songs!!! I can’t wait!!!❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️
Such an appropriate song for 2021. Bye bye America as we know it. Change can be good, we will see. Love Home Free.
Cannot waitttttt!! It’ll be heart throbbing! 💓
What an amazing arrangement. Chase..way to handle that opening...y'all sounded awesome. What a blast this must have been. Really a rockin update to this!
I hope you get 10.000.000 you are the best and here in Portugal we love you to
Love the making of video. Now I have to see if the song video is out, if it is, I missed the notification for it.
Edit:
Just went and listened...
WOW! Just wow! Home Free just added so much to an already beautiful song. I think the new release just might blow up the charts again. If the current "powers that be" dont see the relevance to modern times and the power this song could carry right now, they are in the wrong industry, for sure. This may be a cover/marriage with the original artist, but it hit me in the feels, totally and 'fer sure'. I loved it!
Hell yeah. Finally gonna make a home free premier
There are many webpages and complete sites devoted to that one song. Thesis people have written on the song and its meaning, and why he says this or that, etc, etc, etc. At this point, to me, the song is still as beautiful and mysterious as it's always been. What was that comment, hmmm, "It's not as important to be able to see through the game, as it is to be able to play the game". I'm sure Mr. McLean can see the song differently from when it was first written when compared to now. Adding nuances and clarifying a thought here, a feeling there as the years go by. And why not, its His song, his effort, his expression. I prefer not to find the last hidden meaning in American Pie, but I do love that it may be different, and with the help of Home Free, quite a new impression will be made. "I'm here to entertain people", and that he will do, I'm sure. Home Free has become such an important part of my musical enjoyment I can only imagine what this collaboration will bring.
Yay! Another Home Free song❤️🌞
Can’t wait!
I'm 66 and I saw Don McLean perform American Pie live, before it had received any air play. He was the opening act for Three Dog night. Tickets cost $3.50!
This is going to be amazing!!! 💕💕💕💕
It's a beautiful song. I really like that Don is on the track. Just listened on Amazon music.
Can't wait to hear how this would sound in it's entirety. Know it'll be way out there. Just a thought here; I'm particularly partial to to Don Mckean's music and there is no one who can sing "Vincent" as he does. Wonder what Home Free can d of with that song? 😉
Purchased and blaring! Love it!
Love the Making of view :) Can't wait for the official video. I kicked myself out of the chat at the end by mistake. The song is phenomenal :) So glad you got to do this with Don. Next you should consider Castles in the Air and or Vincent :) I've always loved those songs from Don along with this one. Great job guys :)
You guys are great! Love everything I have seen you do, you deserve it. Keep them coming please. You make the world a better place...
Loved it!! Now, I can't wait for the official video to come out!!
I heard this song for first time when I was 7 yrs. old. I AM OLD!!! tears
Love it! I had this on my iPhone playlist before I heard you were going to do it. It’s been a favorite since I was a kid singing to it, & I still have it on a 45! One of the few remaining 45’s that I chose to keep. Good stuff!
Home Free: Renewing nostalgia and bringing in new music lovers at the same time ❤❤
Big congratulations you are absolutely amazing ...thanku so much love and god bless x
I remember when this came out, I was a very young Marine expecting orders to Vietnam. Oh so long ago now.
Soooooo excited for this!!!!!!
Listening to it all I can hear is Weird Al’s ‘saga begins’ 😂😂 Still awesome though!
its not just me then 😂
I legit was singing that version too
I read somewhere that Don Mclean's kids are huge Weird Al fans and they listened to the song so much that during a live performance of American Pie, he accidentally did a verse of The Saga Begins in stead.
God I love Home Free so much!!! They make me so freaking happy!!!❤❤❤
But seriously Home Free only has a million subscribers!!! OMG!! THEY DESERVE SO LUCH MORE LOVE!!!!!!!😞😌
Greatest song ever. Know every single word.
GREAT ,FANTASTIC,THE BEST,❤🐾❤🐾❤🐾❤🐾❤🐾❤🐾🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸☘☘☘☘☘☘☘☘❤🐾❤🐾❤🇺🇸☘☘☘American Pie
Cool that you're working with Darren Rust. I thought I recognized him from his "The Blenders" fame... another cool vocal group with great music in their own right. Great job guys!
OMFG!!! I am so damn excited!!!
I have my original vinyl LP! I love those songs and Don McLean, and Home Free, too!
Congratulations on the Gold Play Button.
Yes, congratulations on the Golden Play Button, guys. Keep up the good work.
And the 3 men I admire the Most The Father Son and Holy Ghost heads off for the west coast
I bought that album of Don McLean’s when I was a teenager when it first came out and two of my very favourite songs of his is American pie and Vincent - please can you do that one as well? 😍
Way to go guys I am beyond happy for your tube award
Really looking forward to hearing this.
I read in one of the earlier video you asking for suggestions. How about “lean on me “?
So awesome. Congratulations!!
I went to Nashville after the tornadoes when the flu bug was really bad and the housing market was bad. Now I am learning how to build them and I am learning how to be a music therapist because I was asked to by the Church. I was asked to also think about dating and marriage. And studying theology. Pretty cool! I really like this song! It was one of my Momma's favorites!
