    Between Brothers in Arms and Everybody Walking This Land, Home Free was willing to put their stance on how we as humans should behave. If you weren't a fan already, these messages clearly show why you should be a fan of them and their music.

    I have always been a fan of this song by Dire Straits but think Home Free did an excellent version of this song. Tim's natural breathy bass was awesome along with Chance's smooth baritone & loved it when all the guys were doing 5 part harmonies. Who would believe humming could sound so good. They gave it a very solemn feeling. I love that they don't overproduce their songs. These guys are my favorite a cappella group out there.

    This is so hauntingly beautiful. I did not know the Dire Straits original at all before I heard this. When I went to listen to the original, I at first thought I'd clicked on the wrong video because it is sooooo different. I prefer this version, although that may be blasphemy to Dire Straits fans. The peaceful power of those 5 perfect voices blending together is just chilling. Great reaction. Have a great day!

    ... Like closing of a book... Yes! That's what I'm hearing; I just didn't know it. The soldier has said his tale, and he's giving his final words. Good reaction. I'm a little surprised you hadn't reacted to this yet, as it's one of HF masterpieces. But now you have. 😀 Lest we forget, we're fools to make war on our brothers in arms.

    I am shocked you hadn't seen this yet. This cover just about broke me! I love that Tim has been able to show off all he can do other than bass. But I will always prefer him in this range! His bass is just so earth shaking and a warm hug at the same time. This was also a gorgeous ode to our soldiers that sacrifice so much for our freedom. My family has been military for generations. Thanks Jenn, another wonderful reaction!

    Home Free again sings a perfect message with perfect harmonies and a cappella nuances beyond description. But the film making prowess is also shining here. The lights through the windows, their transparency, the absolute stillness of the space, and the decision to go black and white... all masterful. And Jen, your analysis is again mesmerizing. Thank you for this one.

  • @kennethbryson7751
    @kennethbryson7751 Год назад +13

    Great reaction, Dire Straits song but Home Free’s arrangement came from another good a cappella group, Club For Five. The idea of the song is genius. Like a man who was injured in war, not left on the field, and his would be thoughts of what’s important! Tim’s depths really brings out the somber emotions it needs. Great breakdown Jenn!
    Low bass Kenneth!

  • @lauranichols945

The ability for the guys and Darren Rust to arrange songs is one of the best musical phenomena in our world today. Thanks again for the true reaction.

    Dear Jen, there is never a copywrite concern with Home Free or Voice Play. They own their music and RUclips is their primary way to get their music to the masses. They have no major music company stockholders to answer to. There are a lot of reactors out there that play the songs through uninterupted the first time and then go back for a second listen with the analysis. Keep up the great work on your side of the pond!

    Mark Knopfler wrote this about the Falkland island conflict with England back then after talking to some relative who was there. Though tit applies to all such conflicts. Beautifully done.

    Yes, this version of Home Free will send shivers through your entire body! This is so emotional. Beautifully sung by Tim and Chance, but the background and harmony of Adam, Rob and Austin is also so beautiful. It looks like a choir or actually a kind of church organ sounds. And the whole setting of the video is just amazing. Simple but with so many details that makes it so profound

    @daventunes3822 Год назад +3

    Having been in an acapella chorus myself, the thing I noticed was the distinct lack of vibrato, which in turn made that chord lock SO substantial. That is a lot of what gives the BGVs that pipe organ effect. It also seemed to me that Adam Rupp took a lot of the very highest lines, and he has a very pure, light quality to his voice.

  • @jonroux9291
    @jonroux9291 Год назад +2

    From the very first time that I heard Home Frees cover of this song, every time a single member is in front of the window, they look like a ghostly image. I wonder if that effect was intentional. Either way, that's how I see it. Amazing job by the boys.👏👏

    I am always impressed at how long Tim can hold those low bass notes! Home Free doesn't do much choreography, their vocals make up for it though and in this particular song, you don't expect that.

    The "haunting" window shots always make me think pf the POW/MIA flag..

    This is the best antiwar song I think I’ve ever heard. Home Free never disappoints they are the gold standard.

    To me what always stands out is that the non-lyrical sections seem to mimic an organ with different stops selected depending on the section.

    when they are in shadow in front of the window (notice the taped rectangle resembles the outline of a flag) it is an homage to the MIA/POW flag which is the sillouette of a soldier. there is one flying on the flag pole with the American flag in the video.
