- The meaning of “Brothers in Arms” rings true across more than just when we’re at war overseas, but when we’re fighting amongst ourselves.
When political and other divisions split us, we have to take a step back and remember that we always have more in common with each other than we have that is different. And we need to see all of our fellow human beings as the brothers and sisters we are, so we can live in a more harmonious society ❤️

My life would be complete if I could hear Home Free singing "He Ain't Heavy, He's My Brother"
Very True, this would work !!
This should be played everywhere on Memorial Day. I couldn't wait to find it and play it.
Tim's vocals bring me back 35 years to the piercing, tectonic balm of this song's namesake album. I was barely in my twenties, but grew up with Vietnam as a backdrop. The insanity of it, the nearly insurmountable damage At Every Turn, the Vets...some disfigured, some walking-wounded, most bewildered, all betrayed.
That bass rumbles in the bone the way grief and disillusionment did. As a kid it was terrifying to see that all the adults had lost their collective shit. Words alone can't describe or heal it. Only music can touch it.
I'm truly grateful.
This is now my favorite Home Free song. As a 26 year veteran, this song resonates with me. I was in high school when Dire Straits Brothers in Arms album was released (one of Adam Chance's favorites 8-). I remember watching footage of the Falkland Islands War on TV in the early 80s. Here are my top 5 (SO hard to pick because all their songs are great):
1. Brothers in Arms
2. Helplessly Hoping
3. Man of Constant Sorrow
4. How Great Thou Art
5. TIE: Good Ol' Country Harmony & Anyway the Wind Blows
Honorable Mention: American Pie with Don McLean
Keep up the great music Home Free; ya'll are my favorite band!!!
P.S. These are the songs I find myself listening to over and over each day.
Home Free is not recognized nearly enough. They are not just incredible musicians but also incredible human beings. They never shy away from issues, they keep the focus on people and how we should help one another. Love them.
exactly
Well said
@@pfalky2k So ya hate everything good in the world? Got it.
That's exactly it... they are not just singers, they are very talented musicians! And the team that makes the videos is also awesome.
@@mikeparker7631 Please remember, that Home Free Home Fries exist all over the World! We're not all American, so not all of us are into the very nationalistic (for lack of a better word) songs on their repertoire. We can still appreciate the skill and talent behind the performances, even if the songs themselves aren't our favourites.
This song was written by Mark Knopfler in 1982, about the Falklands War and it's casualties.
I'm sure there must be tremendous pressure to release new, original material on any band, but these guys have such incredible talent I want them to cover every song I ever loved to listen to. They improve everything they sing.
I agree but their originals are top tier also....js
That's right, Mike! I read a nice comment that aptly said, "They don't do covers. They upgrade." Truth. I like to daydream about them upgrading Cecilia from Simon & Garfunkel to add to their arsenal of upbeat productions. And if they ever put their hands in The Beatles' catalogue, I'll be ready to die. ;)
@@Jolluna its not uncommon when I hear an old song I like to find myself wondering how it would sound as a Home Free arrangement.
Well, on this song I do not agree with you. Many others, yes. This one? A BIG no!
I want them to cover anything and everything. 😍 I love their original work too though. So… just make the impossible happen and do both. 😅
I play this on Memorial day. This song should win many awards. Such a beautiful tribute to fallen soldiers 😢
Mark Knopfler is a genius lyricist. What a heartwrenching song.
WAR, it should always be the last possible option. No life is worth sacrificing for anything other than FREEDOM.
My Cousin was a surgeon on a hospital ship in Vietnam & he refused to ever talk about what he saw during his service.
Rest In Peace My Adopted Big Brothers Who Laid Down Their Lives In Vietnam.
Home Free, I'm still crying. What an absolutely stunning rendition of "Brothers In Arms". Thank You.
Oh man. As a veteran, this struck a cord in my heart and memories for my fellow brothers and sisters who paid the ultimate sacrifice, and succumbed to the mental wounds of duty. I was crying. Thanks for the tears. For the reminders of their memories.
Thank you for your service!
Took the words right of my head an Thank ya for Ur Service Sister… 14 yr Army Vet here… it’s a daily battle, but keep Marchin On
My son flew with the Corps in Iraq. This touched me, and I had to send it to him. Absolutely beautiful! There is no song they have ever covered than has not improved on the original imo. Such extraordinary talent.
From sister to brother amen my brother thank you for saying my mind better than i could
To make this more special, I did Honor Guard a couple times for my base and was given the opportunity to present the folded flag to the retiree and veterans families. It’s one of those details you have to be for lack of better terms, “emotionally constipated” and maintain military bearing at all costs. But if I were to hear this at a ceremony, I’d be done.
71 years ago my uncle Marvin died at the battle of Chosin Reservoir in what is now North Korea. The US and UN troops were so out numbered and under such continuous fire that they were not able to take the fallen with them when they withdrew. My uncle was one of those left behind. But now, thanks to decades of diplomacy and the science of DNA, his remains have been repatriated and positively identified. He's finally coming home. His ashes will be interred in his mother's grave next month. It took a lifetime of continuing effort, but they finally brought him home. Like the lyrics in this song say, "You did not desert me, my brothers in arms."
WOW 🥺! Your ability to tell a relatively short story with such depth and detail, in so few words - is amazing, yet I feel compelled to not only thank you - for sharing this slice of your own family history - while offering apologies for EVERY soldier, EVERYWHERE for being forced to be pawns in our leaders battles.
Maybe we (EVERY COUNTRY) should bring our soldiers home - and send the LEADERS to the battlefield to fight out their agendas - until the last one standing. Seems more fair, right? 👍
❤❤❤ Thank You for sharing that🇺🇸🙏🏻
HUA!
I read Hampton Sides’ book about that battle. It was very moving; I have the highest admiration for those soldiers who fought against all odds. My father was in n Korea, but not at Chosin. I’m happy to hear that you have your uncle’s remains at home where they belong.
Thanks for sharing that. It’s easy to forget when we aren’t directly involved. Thank you for reminding me of these “brothers in arms”. I’m happy to find out too these efforts are working.
In 1982 when this was written my husband spent 3 weeks on the QE2 on his way to the Falklands. He was injured at 2:30am on the day of the ceasefire and has suffered for 41 years. He returned to the islands 20 years later with lots of vets and they were blown away by the feeling of gratitude and love from the islanders. Thank you to all who served for our freedom 👏🏻🙏🏻
hi Ann how are you doing today 😊❤
As an old warrior, (now disabled, and retired) that has been one of my all time favorite songs for many years. So glad you guys did it... and did it well. Thank you. Thank you so much. Memories are leaking out of my eyes, and running down my cheeks... I'm home, and I'm 'home free". Only hope to God we can stay that way...
Amen.....🎄🎉🙌🙌🙌👍👍👍👍
Your brothers in arms are really free now in peace. They are always with you! You are never alone! God bless you my friend.💜✨🕊️✨💜
Thank you sir! May our God see your heart and your hurts. May he Bless you with continued perseverance of getting through the day and being with family.
Thank you with much respect for your service!
Amen from a fellow Veteran
Feel it brother...My tears are pooring...the memories, the good and the bad...
Sick… just sick! Tim is otherworldly! Great to hear him back down in the “depths” again….rattling our souls and drowning our senses with “bass-ly” perfection!
the best way to describe it is "Sepulchere" like death is walking by and speaking...
He is smooth, isn't he?
OUTSTANDING!!!! Thank you from a US Navy Vet Desert Shield/Desert Storm
Thank you for your service and sacrifice!
Thank you Sailor
Thank you for your service brother!! Amen!
Thank you for your service sir!
Thank you!
The reverance shown to these fallen heroes says so much more than just the lyrics. Inspiring tribute.
God bless all veterans who answered the call of duty to serve as a Brother in Arms. God bless those men and women who died for their nations cause. I don't have much love for the axis of WW2 but know that many of the poor boys shoved into battle, just wanted to live, go home an love someone, and have a real life. Sure some were so fanatical that they didn't know this, but most were just scared little boys who wanted there mommies. If you were faced with an assured death, who would be in your last thoughts. God bless all those who faced real death, weather form an enemy bullet or bomb, or as I did in the Coast Guard, in 1976, and the terrors of an angry sea, aboard a 40 year old Coast Guard cutter, in 1976, in 30 foot seas, in the Gulf of Alaska...
The portholes showed grey sky one second and deep green water the next. I mostly just prayed and ask for Gods mercy... Also I was a freaking seasick son of a bitch most the time. And I was a cook...
I don't recommended my Parmesan Chicken dinner just before we entered the Straight of Juan De Fucha...
This is possibly one of the most beautiful a capella pieces I've heard! The whole group nailed every part.
One thing I really love about this cover is the fact that they chose a bass singer as the lead, but just left him as the lead. They didn't try and show off with subharmonics, growls or any of the other super showy techniques (they have a place but are sometimes overused); instead they just let the natural warmth and beauty of a lower voice shine as the focal point for all the stunning harmonies.
Fantastic job, Home Free.
He seemed kind of heavy on the vocal fry. Tim can get down to those registers without it so I'm thinking it's a style choice. Sing about soldiers, use a gruff voice.
Listen to the original version. ruclips.net/video/Gerr99h0nS8/видео.html
@@johnbrock8105 well vocal fry isnt necessarily to hit subterranian notes it is just used to slightly distort the voice kind of like distortion on an electric guitar. But Tim uses it here I believe ike you said to really drive the soldiers eyes kind of vibe and he nailed it. Not arguing with you by any means
The song has lost nothing of its topicality, on the contrary, the message is more current than ever. It is very emotional. You guys did a fantastic job. Tim's and Chance's voices are so phenomenal! Wow 💥
Unfortunately this song will always be current. We live in a war world and always have.
People while fighting today about issues we face; stop, think and look around at how many fought and died for the freedom many so willingly give away today. This nation was founded on principle that we looked out for and cared for each other; NO MATTER OUR DIFFERENCES... Today focus is on keeping division, then randomly thanking someone for their service; not ever taking the time to think about what that service member risked their life for... It wasn't for your battle for division, how is that for a direct hint... And yes, I am a veteran and would prefer you thank me by working together and not forcing opinions on each other.
Hello Andrew. How are you doing?
I went from Brazil to Amsterdam listenning to Homefree at spotfy. When I arrived at Amsterdam Airport, I was suprised to met them in front of me. Imagine the chances of something like this happen. I was with my mom, and she said "go on, ask them for a picture", unfortunatelly I was embarrassed enough about my english, and did not tried talking with them. I think I'll regret this for my entire life, these guys made my life better and I wasn't able to tell them how thankfull I am
Someone make sure Mark Knopfler sees this especially with Tim and Chance taking the lead vocals. Great arrangement of one of my very favorite songs and so appropriate now.
Do you really think that Home Free used Knopfler's song without notifying him first and clearing all licensing/copyright issues? 🤔
@@WassPogoreloff You can buy the rights from the publishing clearing house so notifying Mark not only not necessary but there was no reason for the publishing house to inform Mark.
@@richb313 by "notifying him" I obviously meant his legal reps/copyright holders. If Mark himself listened to every cover of his material - he would not have time to eat or sleep, let along writing new songs. 🙂
The arrangment was borrowed from Club From Five
@@NoTengoMuchoDinero yep, heard Club for Five version about 10 years ago.
ruclips.net/video/Gerr99h0nS8/видео.html
many thanks to Mark Knopfler for writing such an emotional, powerful piece of music, performed well in this cover.........
Sitting home on Memorial Day and this pops up. Great song, GREAT COVER and so appropriate.
Every person, in every nation, should understand this song and agree, the horrors of war might require some to sacrifice everything, and they should all be remembered for their courage and bravery.
I've had my tix since early summer to see you in Des Moines on Dec 15 (which would make my 6th time over 5 different states); however, cannot go because we would have to show our papers. Cannot express how disappointed I am. Your harmonies are so haunting in this one -- you did the legendary Mark Knopfler and Dire Straits proud. God bless and thank you for the beauty, joy and laughter you have brought to my life.
Hello Vicki how are you doing today,merry Christmas in advance
I just listened to the original before coming back yet again to this, wondering why this version ALWAYS leaves me bawling, while the original doesn't. I think it's because Dire Straits' version is the low key melancholy of survival which inspires contemplation and remembrance. The raging storm is over. You survived. You're worn out, you're grieving for those who were lost, but you *survived*.
Home Free? You're still in the raging storm. They just reach in and rip out your heart with the emotional reality of war.
Hello Donna how are you doing today,merry Christmas in advance..
4:45 of chills.....just amazing!
hi my friend how are you doing today 😊❤
Pity this clip didn't recognise the genesis of this song - the Falkland War in 1982. Stunning song beautifully interpreted.
Adam Chance is perfect for this song. Great job guys.
I lost 38 brothers and sisters in combat. My father, a Nam veteran, died in 2012. One day, my older brother and I will be buried under Old Glory and laid to rest with our blood...our brothers, sisters, father, veteran grandfather and uncles who heard the TAPS play before us.
Thank you for singing such a beautiful tribute to our fallen heros. 🇺🇸 Lest we forget...
Hello Missti. How are you doing?
@@thomassmith1080 I am doing great. Thanks for asking 🇺🇸
@@misstijones2725 Good to hear from you Missti. Where are you from if you don’t mind me asking?
I cannot remember the last time a song made me tear up, and I was actually tearing up. Powerfully, beautifully done.
I. Pray that some day we can learn to live together without fighting each other. I lost my Father to WW2 and I served in the U.S.Navy so I haves stood up for our country and. Would again, I just wish that would not have to happen.
I have lost a cousin in Afghanistan, and it causes me great sorrow knowing that some that has fought and died for freedom, not just for the USA, but for other countries as well, are burried in other countries that hate Americans. This song really touches my heart. Hopefully it makes others remember the sacrifices all made that fought for freedom. (Some gave it all). Thank you Home FREE.
They shall not grow old
As we who are left grow old
Age shall not weiry them
Nor the years condemn.
At the going down of the sun
And in the morning
WE SHALL REMEMBER THEM.
When I first saw this was going to be a premiere, I was like is it going to be "that" Brothers In Arms...the Dire Straits/Mark Knopfler Brothers In Arms. I always loved that song...for its depth....simplicity...its meaning.
I listened to the Home Free version tonight...impressed by their rendition. It captures the essence of the original, the depth, the simplicity. Once again Home Free pays tribute...they come through...and this Veteran appreciates their efforts. Thank you Home Free.
I somewhat under stood the original version but I understand the lyrics better now with this version. Well Done..
It's like listening to a cello concerto without the cello.
I have always felt that Helplessly Hoping by Home Free has been the Gold Standard of A Capella perfection performances. But after listening to your audio version of Brothers in Arms from your Land of the Free album, to me it is the Platinum Standard of A Capella perfection. I cannot wait to see the video for the incredible and unbelievably intricate harmonies I am about to witness. Imho, you guys are the most talented, and have the richest harmonies of any band that has ever graced our beautiful planet. It is not flattery, but earned respect for you are the best at your profession. I hope someday the ACM will recognize Home Free as a rare gem of a country band, as Chris Stapleton is as a country soloist.
We actually need Home Free more of more of slow country and blues songs because they are absolutely king of their harmony.
I couldn't agree with you more.
@@margfried8796: 👌
I concur.
Yes! Great comment!
Pentatonix realeased a version of "The Prayer" today (30/10) for their Holiday album. It was beautiful and with flawless singing. But there is a reason I more seldom listen to them and listen almost every day to Home Free. Home Free's arangements and harmonies outshines Pentatonix by far and has done so for quite a while. Home Free is on another level. They are the gold standard of a cappella singing and in my opinion the best music group in the world.
well said!
TOTALLY agree with you.......HF are every man and womans' entertainers. Pentatonix is just show business to me and not relatable. I dont like the girl's voice in the group also. HOME FREE is so much more better in every way, and tho I wish so much more for them, I love how they have stayed so relatable to us, their audiences.
Agree 100% , Best musical group, period.
There’s room for all three: Pentatonix; Home Free AND Voice Play!
What I genuinely love about Home Free is their relatability and the fact that they have such a close bond that they can do solo work and the group is still strong.

Hello mos how are you doing today,merry Christmas in advance
Thanks for dropping this for those of us who can't see you in person.
33 years in an Air Force uniform, continuos active duty from 1975 to 2000. No one ever came within 25 ft of hitting me, thank my God. But I knew my share of people who paid the ultimate price to accomplish a mission they took on as theirs.
25 feet?
I have witnessed my brothers in arms. Now, I’m retired military, ready to walk our farms, smell the sweet, humidity, humility in the work of our land. It’s time…. Kentucky
This is amazing. One of Home Free's very best songs.
I'd love to see a collaboration with Mark Knopfler on this-Home Free on vocals, Mark on guitar. The best of both worlds.
Is it normal to get goosebumps listening to them sing?
It is. :)
Completely normal!
Absolutely. Especially Tim
YES ! No Dr. Visit required ! Blessings from California. 🦋
Yup! It's normal!!!!
Thank you and wonderful song. Lost my husband 2 years ago. He was a Vietnam Veteran
2021 marks the centennial of the Tomb of the Unknown Soldier; how hauntingly appropriate.
My brothers are all gone now but I still stand to carry on the fight and teach the next generation to be brothers in arms. I see their spirits in the eyes, hearts, and minds of the men I trained. forever brothers in arms.
Gentleman,,, After serving 20years active Arny I want to thank you for such a beautiful and moving tribute. Again "THANK YOU"
I come from a family full of veterans, myself included. This song touched my heart and made me think of my brothers and sisters in arms who no longer can enjoy the fruits of their labors in service to their country. Thank you.
hi Paula how are you doing today 😊❤
Not only American but EVERY soldier that ever gave it his all in defense of 'democracy' and a freedom we can't have if facism takes us over. Beautiful rendition.
Am I the only one who thinks Tim sings "we're forced to make war..." instead of the original line ("we're fools to make war...") at the end of the song? would actually fit just as well
I thought I heard 'forced' first time through. After reading the lyrics and listening again, I heard Tim following the lyrics.
Great job covering our arrangement! And you beautifully colored the middle section with lush chords!🎶❤️ Maybe someday we’ll perform this together?🔥👏🏻
I immediately thought of you guys when seeing this video! The arrangement is impeccable, hope people go check your version...
Kind of a bold statement. Anyways… This was great!
@@fotografi4fun ? Tim contacted me (I’m Tuukka, the bass from Club For Five) and asked permission to use our arrangement. I sent it to them and they altered some chords in the ”There’s so many different worlds” -section of the song. Otherwise is 100% same as ours. Great job the guys and Tim did covering this or should I say tributing Club For Five’s original version.
from this I went and listened to y'all perform it, you did a magnificent job, the arrangement suits the song perfectly!!!!
@@subbaritonebassman9885 I looked up your version when I saw your name in the album credits - it's wonderful as well. Thank you for your incredible arrangement and your generosity in sharing - one of the things I love most about the acapella community.
As a battle seasoned Veteran, this pulled at my heart. As I listened to this song, I was reminded of the many team mates I lost over the years. Well done remembrance for all those fallen and thank you for sharing!
Thank you for your service!! I salute you !
Thank you for your sacrifice and my freedom.🙏❤️
Thank you for your service.
Now that the war is over, deployed or not we still havr one last battle. To cover each other until we stop loaing brothers and sisters to their own hands.
Until then our mission isnt over. Always with my battle brothers and sisters.
@@wakcedout Amen to that. We are bound to each other. Help each other as we can and must.
I like home free because their music revolves around 3 main things:
God, family and country.
I have no words, thank you sooooooooo much. God Bless YOu ....ALL
Just left me speechless and breathless.
I have listened to this twice now am on my third time. I can feel this song to my bones.
Hi Ginger how are you doing today?
Hell yeah. Maybe my favorite song of all time.
Home Free is the best acapella group right now and this just proves it.
This arrangement is originally by Club For Five, the credits of the arrangement are nowhere to be seen, strange.
I love how all you guys have to do is just stand there and sing. No special effects needed. Just amazing! Well done Home Free!
The special effects is that tingle going up your spine when they harmonize like angels.
@@zanleekain117 And the chill bumps & hair standing on end going up your arms, & the tears coming to our eyes!
Just some reverb and delay ... and I guess a ton of compressor and EQ'ing. They sing beautifully and with the imagery they put the lyrics in context. It is impeccably done!
you know that the video is in playback, don't you?
@@gabriele_marrocco That doesn't make it any less phenomenal or them any less talented. I can't wait to hear them do this song live. I'm sure I'll be just as blown away.
Such Respect!!
Every now and then you have the privelege to stumble upon a rendition of a seminal song; a performance which ought to go down as a pivotal moment in music history. Such is the wonder of Home Free's rendition of "Brothers in Arms." Beyond superlatives. Pure, refined, remarkable talent. Well done Brothers.
Apparently, they thought so. They asked the Finnish group, Club for 5 if they would let them use their score. A few changes from that version, but not much.
@@johntucker4296...confused.....song was written by Mark Knopfler of
Dire Straits......right?. That's the only version I recall.
I keep thinking that Adam Rupp is not sufficiently recognized for his talents. Not only is he a stellar beatboxer, but he sings excellent acapella, which anyone who's tried it can tell you is hard work.
Long time ago in 1986 I served in the regular "socialist-communist" army, this song was a hit song, was playing on the radio. As a soldier at that time from another part of the world, not knowing a lot of English language, I was singing the tune, and that chorus brothers in arms make me smile like I was knowing what it means really. Decades later my English is getting better and I heard a song again, now, I know what it means, it means a lot for the army personal no matter where they served, in what army, we are all the same, sometime just fresh meat for the cannons, sometimes just lost in the desert, but always remember that when no one else is left to ask for help and support, that person next to you, that cold blooded soldier is your brother in arms and he and you will do anything to protect each other, to help each other to ease the pain, because those are The Brothers in Arms! God save all soldiers!
Hello Goran. How are you doing?
Very well said sir. In the end we are all just people. We're born we live, we die. What we do in between makes us brothers. I just wish that we didn't have to band together to kill others to experience this bond. God Bless ya Brother.
Brother... It is simply the sound of freedom. Freedom.
Wow. In awe as usual. Heres the tears too. Lovely guys.
The boys absolutely nailed this one, but... I wish they (or their producer) hadn't taken a British song and made it all about "America". All we see here is the American flag everywhere. This song is about war in general and transcends the boundaries of country, colour and religion. This could have had much more global appeal. Despite this, it is one of my favourite Home Free videos.
I nominate this to be the our national theme song for Veteran's Day!
While serving in the German Armed Forces since almost 35 years I sorrily had to let go too many of my comrades. We will be BIA forever. Thank you so much for this outsanding piece of art and music.
Thank you for your service to a great NATO partner.
This song is rich is a sentiment that is international in its application. Brothers in arms have been killing each other for too many generations. Pray that this comes to an end, and as soon as possible!
Amen brother we all are BIA 30 years in the US Army and 11th ACR trooper allons my brother
I've got several friends serving in the military, though not in the field. Yet it's so sad to see, how bad the Gernan citizens think of our military, having heard stories of soldiers being spat on in the train etc. I cannot respect and thank you guys enough for your service.
@greg is back Vielen Dank für Deine Dienstzeit, Deine Verpflichtung, Deinen Einsatz.
Only one word comes to mind
AWESOME.
OMG! My favorite song, besides Dire Straits...Best ever!
This brings tears to my eyes every time I hear it. You do such s great job. Makes you really feel the sacrifices our soldiers make for us everyday
Thank you.
As a mother who has lost a son to illness contracted while in Afghanistan this really hits home. My son knew PTSD well from his service and only true comrades know the story. As a mom my heart was heavy with his burden but I was proud of his service and the fact that he was in the process of re enlisting when the illness took his life.🇺🇸🦅🇺🇸 thank you Home Free to such a moving performance. Very few country bases groups capture my attention but you do with your continued stellar performances.
As an American, as a MOTHER of a son called to Service, I thank you, for raising your son to be the HERO our Country cannot exist without… and for your terrific Loss, I send you Love and Respect, and Thanks to your Son for his Service and, ultimately, his sacrifice.
You are eternally revered.
Sending love and hugs. Both my boy's have served with one still in service and many family now retired after life time careers in service. Thank you for having such an amazing man and loving him through his lifetime and beyond.
💔
I read your comment and listened to the live version Club for Five did, (they gave this version to Home Free) and their version broke my heart.
That hit deep. (No pun intended on Tim and Chance carrying the song in their lower registers. Just happy coincidence.) After reading the song description, it made me realize that a lot of the anger I feel at what I see happening in our country right now is underlaid by an even deeper sadness that there is so much strife and division. We are all part of the human family, and it always hurts to be separated from your family.
Chance can actually hit notes close to Tim.
This is the same thought that was running through my mind as they sang. Usually, I focus on the musicality with Home Free... This time the message hit me hard. As a veteran, I often had thoughts like this whenever we sent soldiers "over there". But lately, the way our country is ripping itself apart over what politicians have stirred up by trying to force us to "choose a side" has hit me. I'm starting to see signs of PTSD-like symptoms in the average people.
I didn't recognize Tim!!! And the newest Adam is incredible. They are truly underrated!!!
hi my friend how are you doing today 😊❤
been a while you have seen home free :P you missing out my dude edit girl your not a dude :) sry saw your icon and clearly your a woman :)

Not understanding your message. I'm a woman. But I have a vocal range I'm trying to increase. Tim is my inspiration. i can almost reach his lower level. His upper level is easy and I can go higher
What was meant by seeing my icon and I'm clearly a woman?
I hope there will be a time in the future we all live in peace and freedom. Thanks to everyone who fight for rights and democracy and for the powerless people
Hello Linda. How are you doing?
Looking forward to it, God bless all of you
AWESOME! LOVE, LOVE, LOVE Tim's deep, deep voice!!?
I had this song on my headphones and watched the Columbia explosion. Hard for me to deal with even after all these years. Epic job Home Free!!!!
I just realized Chance is my all time favorite singer of HF.
Just so beautiful and poignant ,brings me to tears every time . Well done Homefree !! 💕
hi Julie how are you doing today 😊❤
This was just mind blowing words cannot express how great this song sounds Tim’s bass left me breathless and when Chance can in I got chills oh those harmonies are unbeatable and the cinematography was magnificent bravo 🙌👏
It too gave me chills. I'm truely speechless. Just beautiful!! 😶😔😮
A reactor I watch has said all they have to do is stand in the grass (this case a room) and you know something amazing will happen
As a veteran I always loved the dire straits original but this made me cry. Brilliant.
Love this. I love that you know / knew/ found Club for Five.
I don't understand.. Why isn't this at over a million views? This is SUPER meaningful, deep, and accurate for everything on going today. This doesn't have the support it NEEDS.
Amen. Many people today have accepted mass produced auto-tuned Pop-crap.
This is more than just hearing. You can FEEL this.
@@intermenater Agreed 100%
then be sure you also listen to the original by Dire Straights....
@@intermenater ironic... The original of this song was on the same album as "i want my MTV" talking about auto-tunes pop crap in many ways lol
My guess is that this is not at country song, and I suspect the majority of Home Fries are country fans. Also, there are so few of us who have served in this country, the meaningfulness to veterans and their families does not necessarily result in a ton of views. No of that diminishes the brilliance of this song though!
I Thank you for this as a Veteran it had me in tears. There are to many who have forgotten those who have sacrificed the Ultimate for their Country so others can live free. In the service it doesn't matter what race or creed that stand beside you just that you are trying to keep each other safe so you can All go home and unfortunately War doesn't always mean that will happen. I don't always agree with the decisions that this country makes but, I raised my right hand and swore an oath and will carry that oath to my dying day! (no haters please)
You only have respect from me. Thank you, for your service.
@@margfried8796 I is truly my honor. Thank you
My father was an Air Force veteran during Korean and Vietnamese wars. He was with us at the end, just a few months before his 90th birthday. But his career in the Service stayed with him, always.
He inspired my son to enlist, 11 years ago, and the PRIDE I feel when I hear this song reminds me of both the courage, and sacrifice, of our men and women in ‘arms’…
Thank you for your Service.
And to Home Free:
Bravo.
@@jipsigal Hello how are you doing today,merry Christmas in advance
@@jipsigalThank you. I wanted to make sure you had a chance to read my reply, if ever you visit this comment again. God bless.
The short trailer of the beginning immediately made me think of the Club For Five version ^^
Glad to see it confirmed, such an amazing arrangement! 😀
Remembering the Heroes who never came Home🎖💜🏅🟥⬜🟦🙏⭐🙏And the Gold Star Families
Rivals, or goes above and beyond the Pentatonics. So amazing. Challengers to the throne. But the bass and baritone, harmonizing with the sopranos and tenor, it's what drags me in. I was a Corpsman, First Gulf War. "I'mma save you!"
As a field medic, you swear three oaths. The first, to uphold and protect the US constitution against all enemies, foreign and domestic. The second, the Hippocratic oath. "First, do no harm." Paraphrasing a bit.
The third, is unwritten, unspoken, just understood. It's the override. Team comes first. It pre-empts all the others, because, well, sorry, if it's a little pragmatic sounding, "If you're dead, or I'm dead, I can't carry out the others. So, stay alive! If you die, we die." This is so much more pertinent. "I'd catch a grenade for you." for me, at least wasn't a song lyric. The entire ethos, we'd die for eachother, but... that's not exactly plan A. Stay alive!
Weird thing they did to me, was, to try to make me unkillable. Innoculated, injected, gas chambers, trained with SEALs.
I don't like guns, personally, but I was a medic. My side-arm was a Ka-Bar short blade. No intent to harm. Utility. I hate war. Sorry if it sounds unpatriotic. I worked on a warship, at VA hospitals, saw the damage it does. The lives cost, the crippling injuries. I was just, "No!"
Ack! Long story short, love the music, the harmonization, the theme, the whole kit and caboodle. More about the music, the combination. It's... insanely good. The balance of the bass, baritone, tenor, soprano, it all, to me, at least represents team.
It not unpatrotic i Think every real war tryed soldier hates war its the “ warriors” at home who glorifieds it. Sorry for the misspelling im Danish and u Can be proud of ur service ur saved lifes ♥️
Try Club 4 Five. They did this years ago. I love the song and, I have to say, I like it better acapella.
Beautiful song, love you brother's.
the base voice reminds me of my brother. Rest in peace and thank you for all you gave. Thank all of you.
Hello dear. How are you doing?
I sang this the day my best friend died. I did the same thing the day my father died. You guys did this true justice.
As a Navy Veteran, I can appreciate what these guys have done. It brings tears to my old eyes. I served during the Vietnam Nam War and lost friends. This is a nice tribute to lost soldiers and sailors and airmen who sacrificed. May God rest their souls! Thank you for Home Free and their talent. It is a real blessing to be able to listen to those beautiful voices.
I love Tim’s haircut does anyone else
i like his new hair but i also loved his old hair style. imagine the gray in the long hair: edit i hope i go gray like tim im 39 now an not showing gray yet ppl still ask for my id when i buy beer. i feel so bad when i hand over my id.
Tim Foust is a vocal giant!
Brothers in arms. We have to help everyone to stop 🛑 this madness around the world
The fact that they sound just like a pipe organ is both breathtaking and gives the song a feeling of reverence and sanctity.
I thought about sending them a message before this video came out. I struggle with a chronic illness, which is a different kind of battle and war. This song hit me right in the feels because it addresses things about my life that most people don't get to see.
Thank you Home Free for such a moving song. You managed to touch the hearts of those who are impacted by the armed forces and their struggles, plus you touched those of us fight a different kind of war. Thank you.
I hear you. You, me and so many others with all types of chronic illness, those who have military folk in their families. This helps to feel the connection we all have.
Did you ever listen to their rendition of "How Great Thou Art"? They sounded more like a pipe organ than a pipe organ. A very moving piece, just like this one. Truly amazingly beautiful.
Ethereal. Haunting. Gut wrenching. Soul stirring. Angelic. The only thing missing was the seraphic choir backing them up.

I’ve never heard of this song before, but Dear Lord, I have GOOSEBUMPS from it now! WOW! Just wow!
