Daniel Earnest. Play it again and listen closely to ALL the words. They go beyond the video. My cousin past away recently through surgery complications. She was 59. She had the special chromosome. ALL her life was nothing but love and happiness! I miss her so. Cherish your brother, hun. I play this over and over and cry for all the people who are misunderstood!
I wish YT had a love button. The reactions the pull on the heartstrings are always the best. I was one of those kids that never fit in so this brought back memories. Thanks
Your “non-reaction” was perfect. You just let the song speak to you and touch your heart and that is what it was meant to do. This song and video hit home for me too because my niece is a special needs teacher and she has an autistic son. I believe Home Free and Mark Willis received multiple Telly awards for this video because of the message. Home Free is so good about doing songs with messages that need to be heard, I would suggest you react to “One Voice”. Love to your brother and thanks for a great reaction and for sharing a part of yourself. ❤️
Such a really sweet song/video about a tough subject. The girl in blue is Mark’s daughter who was bullied for a time when she was younger. Loved the kids. You’re a really sweet guy and I’m sure a great brother to your brother. God bless you!🥰🥲 Home Free came out with a new song that Chance wrote for a pirate game Skull & Bones…check it out.
Home Free is not afraid to tackle the issues. They all are so awesome! Mark Willis as well is awesome. The woman standing next to Mark is his daughter. I cry every time I see this. Love your reaction!
Great reaction!!I’m so glad they did this video it’s such such a great message. Nate Simon ( boy in video ) is 20 years old and the CEO of 21 Pineapples.Him and his mother started the company because they wanted change the way others perceive people with Down Syndrome & other special abilities.All those Hawaiian Shirts he was wearing were from his company.
The young man in the video is the CEO of 21 Pineapples. The proceeds are donated and they have some really cool shirts! You gave an honest reaction and that is the most important thing. There are a number of reactors who were in tears by the end of this.
I was a big Mark Wills fan back in the 90's. I just love his voice. I still have 5 of his cds including the one that he first released Don't Laugh At Me and even got his autograph on the cover. Wonderful song with a wonderful message!!
This makes me sob every time. Siblings of people with special needs are very special and you are a great big brother. My youngest (young adult now) has Down Syndrome/autism and his five siblings are wonderful with him. I’m so proud of them for speaking out when others are bullied. A few of his cousins are working with special needs people too. Beautiful cameo at the end.
Thanks for your reaction! This song has a very powerful message to a very serious subject. Love that Home Free isn't afraid to tackle the issue of bullying. And I really appreciate that Home Free doesn't take the limelight away from the original artist & the message.
A beautiful collaboration. Mark Wills is a great singer. And then my favorite Home Free in the background sounds fabulous. A beautiful song with a sad subject. I know what bullying is. Not by children, but by the teachers. It's so good that it's getting attention. Because bullying has to end. Think about what you're doing to someone like that. I never told anyone before. I let it go and thought I could handle it. But I developed a fear of failure and inferiority complex about it. Fortunately, I had and have very dear family and friends around me, who unconsciously dragged me through it. It was only when I was 57 years old that I went to therapy for it.
Some reactions are louder than words. Some music videos are more than music, no matter how well played. Your reaction was perfect. Home Free is known for bringing positive messages to us with their many talents and tenets. Thank you for sharing this with us.
Isn’t this beautiful? I know this is an older song, but I had not heard it until Home Free did this collaboration. I agree, their storytelling here is well done and important. One of my closest friends once said “normal” is nothing but a setting on your clothes dryer. 😊 It’s so true. We are all different in our unique ways but have so much that we share. I really enjoyed this, Daniel.
I love this video... Mark Wills actually released this years ago...the collaboration with Home Free was a great way to reintroduce this amazing song... Home Free is all about God Family and Country... We all have scars and trials..some show while many don't...the part about the man begging breaks my heart..I know the type of pain he's describing... Be kind when ever possible..listen even if you would rather speak...it will make a difference...a single drop can become a tsunami..one person does count...💚🙏💚... 🌿🌿🌿
As a neurodivergent parent of a neurodivergent child, I've not seen the problem of bullying improve a bit in an entire generation 😢 but I wholeheartedly appreciate Mark Wills and Home Free for spotlighting the issue. This topic--and song--always make me cry...my heart hurts for our kids 💔
Loved your reaction - no analysis needed when music touches your heart and soul! Home Free does such a good job of tackling challenging issues in a beautiful way. Love that they let Mark and the "kids" shine in this one and were just the BGVs to put a spotlight on bullying. Home Free never disappoints! I'd strongly recommend One Voice feat. Billy Gilman (watch to the end), Undivided and Everybody Walkin' This Land (watch to the end). Thx!
Thanks for reacting to this and sharing with us about your experience growing up with a DS brother. I don't have DS, but I was bullied through elementary and junior high school (they call it middle school now), so this video hit me in a different way, too. Jenna Lee (sp?) was doing modified Sign Language. I'm sure she signed the whole song, but we only saw pieces of it.
I grew up with a brother who was severely mentally handicapped. We spent a lot of time around special kids. He passed away 4 years ago this month. This song really hits ❤
Thank you for such a wonderful reaction! I have worked in developmental disabilities for almost 25 years and I have learned more from the individuals I support then they will ever learn from me! It is the most amazing and beautiful community and I feel so blessed to have been the smallest part of it! You brother seems awesome!🤗❤️
Thanks for sharing your story with us. What a beautiful soul you have and love for your brother. Both of my daughters adopted children who are autistic and it has been a challenge for our families but i couldn't love them any less than the others but it truly hurts when I've heard that they are bullied. I taught my children to be very accepting of those with special needs and they both worked in the schools that they were attending to help out in those classrooms. They both loved it and i think the experience has helped them with their own children. Love that HomeFree lend their fame and talents to help out great causes. ❤😊
What a special reaction. Thank you for sharing the background to it. What a special young man you are to make a video with your brother. Can't wait to see it.
@@DanielEarnest Her name is Macey.Wills and she often sings with Mark at his concerts now. Jenna Lee Wasserman the other young woman in the video often signs at Mark's concerts too.
:) The Golden Rule. It's worked for me for a long time now. Those who don't respond to the Golden Rule get a heart-felt wish from me to wake up to the beauty that life offers if you only cooperate and communicate. There *is* a majority of decent people in the world. There always has been.
I would love to see you react to BTS and breakdown your interpretation of what their songs are about because all their songs have a deep meaning behind it
Well, special needs people may not look different. I was diagnosed a few years ago that I'm autistic, I'm turning 53 next month. I was ignored during childhood at school and bullied through highschool not knowing what was wrong with me.
Just getting to look at your beautiful head, makes all of your reactions interesting. The clips used in this video, are straight out of Mark Wills video for this song.
@carolburnett190 when I was young .. am 70 next week .. we never saw DS children. They were all put in special institutions. My daughter, a teacher and grandaughter, a nursery assistant, both had a DS pupil in their class and they were included in birthday parties etc. Nobody thought anything of it. So much improvement thro the years. Have a good weekend. X

Yes, the young lady that comes out to sing is Marks' daughter.
This message touches the heart. The visual reinforces it. Thanks for ‘reacting’. Blessings to you, your brother and family!
His daughter love them both they both seem loving and caring
They won six Telly Awards for this video

Home Free is, I believe, a genuinely caring group of men.

"one day we will all have perfect wings" my favorite line of that song.
Great reaction!!I’m so glad they did this video it’s such such a great message.

Not everything needs to be analyzed, some things just need to be listened to!

I hope you're having an amazing Summer, Daniel. You have a special life with your brother included in it. God Bless him.
I grew up with a brother who was severely mentally handicapped. We spent a lot of time around special kids. He passed away 4 years ago this month. This song really hits ❤
Thank you for such a wonderful reaction! I have worked in developmental disabilities for almost 25 years and I have learned more from the individuals I support then they will ever learn from me!

Sweet child, NORMAL, is a setting on the dryer. We are the same but each unique and created and beloved of God. Keep up the good work!
This song is beautiful, loved the reaction thank you 😊
God bless you!
That is Mark’s daughter who inspired this song 🎶
Aww... Your brother made my heart melt. So sweet! Kudos to you for doing that for him. So supportive. I love seeing that. Sending love to you both!
If I remember correctly, the lady is Mark Wills daughter.
Beautiful song and meaning.❤

Normal is a setting on a washing machine
That's what my Grandma always told us ❤️
Sometimes, no spoken reaction says more than speaking.
The young lady in question is Marks daughter😊❤ great non reaction❤😊

The young woman is Mark’s daughter.
She is Marks daughter
The young lady is Mark Wills daughter. This song is about 30 years old, and it's as poignant and relevant today as the day it was released
That's his daughter in the video
Well, special needs people may not look different. I was diagnosed a few years ago that I'm autistic, I'm turning 53 next month. I was ignored during childhood at school and bullied through highschool not knowing what was wrong with me.

Mark wrote the song as a result of his daughter being bullied in high school.

Am not religious at all. Downs are the LOVLIEST people and so glad they are now in movies and TV shows. Nana Karen aged 70 UK
Downs are lovely indeed. I’ll be praying for you 😊
I used to watch a lot of British TV and I was impressed by the inclusivity.
