This was definitely a HomeFree masterpiece.
🎶💗🦋🎶
That addition high voice is Adam Rupp
This is a masterpiece; the way they end it is like hearing a pipe organ.
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
Those last two notes sound like the final "Amen"
I have always loved 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. These guys are my favorite a cappella group out there.
Dagmar, I rarely have to comment as you have already said all I wanted to say😊
Hauntingly beautiful ❤️
The impression I have of the last two tones is like a fog horn on a ship. These guys are always amazing and they never take shortcuts in providing quality performances. They are very meticulous with their presentations. Astonishingly good!!!!!
This is so beautiful. This arrangement was done by the Finnish group Club for Five. Tim contacted them to ask permission to use it and they said yes. You should check out their version. Even though it's the same arrangement, the sound is quite different. It is mixed male and female voices with instrumentation. Great reaction. I love those "organ" chords at the end.
I just watched it! Wow! Definitely a different feel than HF. I prefer Tim’s breathy low voice to the clear tone of the Club for 5 bass, but both are great! Thanks for suggesting that 😃
@@DanielEarnest Oh! I forgot to ask if you'd heard the Dire Straits original. I didn't hear it until after Home Free. I could hardly believe it was the same song.
I listened to a little of it and, yeah…it was very different from HF’s version.
The message of the song is so timeless, and can be applied to so many situations. HF wrote that this is so appropriate for us right now fighting amongst ourselves. We're fools to fight our brothers in arms.
When the song was written, Mark Knopfler meant *all* those in arms ie those we are taught or brainwashed into thinking of as enemies.
@@patriciamcl54 It definitely fits.
Tim and Chance are transparent.... showing between life and death.
That is such a neat effect 😃
Home Free's music not only connects with our appreciation for beautiful, well crafted music; but also connects with our heart when they perform. I think that's why they are so beloved by their fans. We hear the heart beat of the music and their love for music as well as the beauty. Their musical instincts are always on point. They know which songs are enhanced by beat boxing and which ones aren't. As there are no egos in Home Free, none of them feel the need to insert themselves into a musical scenario just for the sake of being front and center. If I may say, you are very young to have so much musical knowledge! Well done. I learn a lot from your reactions. Thanks for another great one.
I ❤️ your reactions! Keep being you!
One of their very best ... love it when Chance gets a time to shine ... his voice is so smooth and smokey !
Home Free does it yet again! They are so awesome! Love your reaction!
One of my favorites. It’s amazing and yes Tim and Chance looked ghost like in the windows. I think they were fallen soldiers. I’m so glad you noticed Tim’s low note (right before the echoes). Many don’t mention it. Love the echoes too. Such a beautiful song. Home Free killed it. Love your analysis. (I thought it was wind too).
The guys from Home Free bring the mood of the song perfectly across with this simple video. The voices of Tim and Chance are just great, you get goosebumps listening to them. Unfortunately, the message is more relevant today than ever. Great reaction Daniel!
When Chance sings you did not desert me my Brothers in Arms
It gets me. And when Tim says every man has to die also gets me
So you've never been in a group? Being in all sort of singing groups myself, you always cover your fellow singer when they have to a breath. You never all take the breath at the same time. Love this group, they are as close to perfection as you can get.
Sun flare (lens flare) is what created that light bar 'through' Rob and Chase. It is usually a problem, but was used magnificently here. As for the shots where the entire window shows through, it is the same sort of effect - such great camera skills. They have been known to create lens flare (see the BTS for Mayday), but the way it moves with the scene, this seems 'real'. Although there might be a high watt light placed in the upper left corner to create part of it.
Aaah, that makes sense and is so neat! Thanks so much. I really enjoy watching their “From the Vault” series
I was going to make a similar statement but nowhere as detailed. Just knew it’s a byproduct of the Lens in direct light happens when I take pics with my camera.
Chance
@@dotwyness4110 I knew it wasn't right, but I was thinking I had misspelled it. I have a dear friend Chase so I often type Chance wrong.
Was about to say it was just the light in the lens that made such a cool effect.
Haunting, Mesmerizing, Magical and a Beautiful Masterpiece
I've listened to this over and over again it makes me cry every time.. This is so Brilliantly done by you Home Free thank you for everything.. For bringing just so much joy into my life listening to you..
Beautiful arrangement
🎶 Keep smilin', keep shinin'
Knowing you can always count on me. 🎶
Tim and Chance are so fantastic in their solos and I love the harmonies in this song! This definitely is one of my favorite songs. Your reaction was great!
I always enjoy your reactions and the appreciation you, as a young singer, have for the talent in this group.
Home Free always pays appropriate respect in their covers--especially to the content! Their talent is amazing--and I LOVE their 5-part harmony❣️🎼🥰🎶❤️
Such a genius touch to show the silhouette of the fellas in front of the window. I know some see it as a "ghost"y reference but it strikes me as a reflection of the POW/MIA flag. We'll never know just how many of those met the same fate as the soldier of this song. 😥
This POWERFUL. For those who never made it home
The background chords always remind me of the haunting quality of a pipe organ.
Really enjoyed watching you enjoy this beautiful rendition of this song.
Beautiful and haunting song. Tim's voice and the arrangement add to an already great song.
I'm pretty sure the thing with the light shining through Tim and Chance is just done with lens flare? They're backlit, the camera's aimed directly at the light source, and the funky light bar right at the beginning stays with the window when that shot pans, so that's my best guess. Regardless of how it's done, you're right; it's a neat effect.
Great reaction. HF is one of the "bands" you have to listen to over an over to catch the nuances, notes, tones, whatever you call it. I love the fact you CATCH what WE are listening to, even though we may not know the term for it. We just know that it's perfect. Cant wait to hear more from you
Written by Mark Knopfler of Dire Staits during the Falklands War. Mark is one of the top guitarists in the world.
🥰🥰🥰
To end on a pipe organ Amen, is perfect for signaling a persons death, summing up the last musings of a wounded soldier’s last words.
Enjoyed the breakdown of the song! Thanks!
This was so much fun, and such a beautiful arrangement and performance, as usual, by Home Free - WOW !! And again, I love listening to you hear so many things going on that I cannot catch, that each guy is adding to the mix to make it even more fabulous 😮🤗!! I agree, the camera effects added to the atmosphere of the story, and did allow for death to peak into the song visually! That one point where they did open their mouths with the AHHHHH, was truly spectacular - such a moving sound that I could actually feel in my bones!! The echo effect really added to the feeling that was building, and Tim singing in that low register just fit the entire piece and its message so beautifully! Thank you again so very much for a great analysis Daniel!!!
Appreciate your thoughtful analysis.
You are right...Home Free NEVER ceases to amaze!!! Great reaction, learned some things!😁
This is so beautiful and haunting ❤️
"Brothers" in arms. It's all of those that died or threw their lives in harms way for their brothers life, no matter the differences of who they are nationally, culturally, religiously, and racially. It's more of a general song for all fighting forces that consider themselves brothers. great reaction, Daniel.
The shot you were wondering how they got, is called a "lens flare" in photography circles. Unless you have a special filter installed on your lens, that prevents this, bright points/areas of light will cause this to happen.
no matter how many times i listen i get chills everytime...thank you for the reaction 😃😃👍🏻👍🏻
@Daniel Earnest -- Ear buds DO NOT have structural diversity to produce mid-to-lower pitches with any real fidelity, and low frequencies not at all. They use psycho-acoustic shenanigans to trick the mind into thinking it is hearing them. Consider what this does to the timbre and overtone series. Dear, dear Daniel, even rather cheap gamer circum-aural headphones are faaaar superior to even the most expensive buds. Better ones with two, three and even four speakers per ear to divide up the work of transducing the sound column are worth the cost.
Don't worry, Danny. You are waaaay cute enough to pull off wearing acoustic cans on your head.
btw: Listen to this one again, but this time think of the timbre in the mind of the arranger ... it's a Hammond B-3 organ playing background in a funeral home.
Oh! Your ear is so good I'm hoping you could answer this for me about the opening theme of the TV show "Vikings". They used "If I Had A Heart" by Fever Ray. Answer me this: Was he, or was he not, sitting on a laundromat washing machine when he composed that?
He's a spirit/ghost. Loved the video, which very few have mentioned, thank you for the that.
Wait till you watch Helplessly Hoping! Talk about ear candy! No joke!!!
It is a reflection off leather coat
Chance and Tim are representing the fallen soldiers that's why they look transparent
Thanks Daniel! 🖤🍟
Bright light will do that in pictures. Next time you are out in bright daylight, get behind a tree and if the conditions are right, it will look as if the sun is shining through the tree's trunk and branches.
Loved your reaction to a very powerful song-🔥
Love your breakdown. This song is hauntingly beautiful yet sends a powerful message.
Adam is singing on this one.
Brothers In Arms written by Mark Knoffler from Dire Straits about the war in The Falklands.
,❤️
Adam is making the high note
Powerful
Home Free masterpiece!! One of my many favorites ❤
the location was filmed empty then filmed again with home free. the empty was put over top with an effect to make it more transparent. pretty sure it was done to show the impermanence of our lives.
This song is about a soldier that is dying and talking to his Brothers in Arms.
With your passion for the video as well as the music, I would love to see your reaction to one of their one take videos. "One Man Band " is a more simple one take but an awesome song and cleverly arranged at times to match the lyrics, or "Thinking Out Loud / Let's Get It On" which is a more complicated one take, but I don't like the song(s) quite as much. Or even "Meet in the Middle" which has a creative video filmed during lockdown.
I’ll look into those! Thanks 😊
If you don’t good headphones, sometimes that “bass hand” is the only way you know Tim is holding one of those heavy bass notes.
Love it ♥️
Adam Rupp is singing in this one. He has a wide range as well.
For another eargasm try their "Mary Did You Know," & to lighten the mood try " Full of Cheet!"
"Full of Cheer"
Loved your reaction to this... it's so powerful! I may be wrong, but the point where you thought it was Austin when they did the escalation with open mouth... I believe that was Chance. Someone let me know. Just subbed... hope you keep doing Home Free.
This is a Masterpiece
I believe the really high notes are Adam Rupp ❤
Really! Wow!
@@DanielEarnest Adam sings in their How Great Thou Art video, he has a beautiful clear high voice.
Many people have suggested that one. I’ll have to react to it sometime. 😃
Do those last 2 notes sound like a pipe organ to you? I've sung with one, and it sure sounds like one to me. Just gorgeous.
Sounds very similar, yes. A lot of people have said that 😄
they have masked it over Tim, it's like they must have shot the background with the light and stacked it over Tim blending it with the footage on top.
That’s what I was thinking too. It creates a really neat effect!
Nice reaction, Daniel! I like how much you go into details that you recognise. In my opinion Home Free did this song justice and the lack of percussion was a nice touch.
In one of the last videos you mentioned that you are planning to bring in other artists to your reactions. Might I recommend the project Ayreon? It is not a capella, but very interesting and has many really good singers from around the world. On the surface it is a Prog-Rock/Metal project, but it combines many genres like Folk, Musical-Theater, classic Rock and (classic) Metal. The composer and producer behind the project is Arjen Anthony Lucassen from the Netherlands. There is a playlist for the Ayreon Universe concert from 2017, which was the first live performance after 22 years. The show is a best of with songs from many albums. There are 16 singers featured that perform in several combinations from solo pieces to varying numbers of them in one piece.
For the most part Arjen writes concept albums in a kind of Rock-Opera format, where every album tells one story in the greater Ayreon Universe and every singer plays one character in the story.
If you like interesting compsitions and arrangements, this project is worth a look. I can promise that it won't be boring.
Here is the link to the Universe live show: ruclips.net/p/PLJGn3wi7b7b606GfoKAdOgm6rtX9OliRc
If you want to take a look at a single song, here are some recommendations:
For more of a folk vibe, Valley Of The Queens (beautiful trio, acoustic instruments)
for an epic rock song: Dawn Of A Million Souls
Rock Opera: Magnetism or for even more singers Star Of Syrrah (has an epic guitar solo)
The song that blows most reactors mind: Everybody Dies
If you happen to like the music, the whole concert is worth a watch.
If ypu prefer a studio recording, most reactors start their Ayreon journey with the official video for The Day That The World Breaks Down. It is the first title of the album The Source from 2017 and kind of an ouverture to the album that introduces all the characters. There are 11 singers in this one song and it is a bit longer with 13 minutes play time. One nice thing are the Pop-Up comments from Arjen where he gives some background information on the production, singers and story. Here is the link to that song: ruclips.net/video/oFuMKdrzPqU/видео.html
Main intruments for most songs are: Flute/Whistle, Violin, Cello, Guitars, Bass, Keyboards
Arjens main influences are bands like Rush, Pink Floyd, The Beatles, Deep Purple, every now and then one can hear Jimy Hendrix...
Hope that wasn't too rambly and nice to have you back uploading videos 👍
To me that chorusing between the 2nd and 3rd verses sounds like people wailing - it's just such a beautiful, sad song sung beautifully. It was probably Austin (or perhaps Rob) singing the highest harmonies. Adam Rupp has a lovely tenor and can beatbox in any octave but I'm not sure he can sustain a note that high.
P.S. = I know you're a bass fan but I'm surprised you haven't yet listened to "When A Man Loves A Woman" (it's as good or better than the Percy Sledge classic).
No percussion in this one, so we get the 5-part harmony that includes Adam’s tenor.
❤💔❤💔❤💔
Tim and Chance are ghosts.
Austin hits C5 easily.
Those sound like eagles.
Tim can sing high also
Adam Rupp on top.
All vocals except for the wind in the beginning and the end.
That was produced by beatboxer Adam Rupp.
I didnt hear bird sounds, it sounded like wind noise to me.
Singing like ghosts
Sorry but I can't listen to a "technical" breakdown on such an emotional song. Too many memories linked to the Dire Straits original and the aftermath of the Falklands War. Home Free do a wonderful job but in this case the meaning is so much greater than the musical polish.
Ther all dead
Can't even get a feel for the song when you keep jumping in every two seconds!
Hey sweetie, your talking way to much!!
You talk to much
