This was their salute on Veteran’s Day a year ago. The arrangement is from a Finnish a capella group (club for Five, I may have the name wrong). Tim contacted them about their arrangement, and they gave it to him, no charge. Tim tweaked it a little for Home Free, and gave us this masterpiece!
Also, five part harmony in this one. No beatboxing, although Adam Rupp did make the wind sound at the end,
When Chance sings the verse about you did not desert me my Brothers in Arms it gets me every time😢
I'm a huge Dire Straits fan, but this is the most moving rendition I've ever heard. Absolutely brilliant. To all of our veterans who were able to make it home and to those who paid the ultimate price thank you for your service.
From the offspring of a WWII Navy veteran father respect is extended. ::Steps back and salutes::
NOW you are ready for Mayday!!
Oh my goodness; excellent reaction. Your opinion on Memorial Day should be a month was interesting and touching. Great technical commentary. Mark Knopler of Dire Straits wrote this song in response to the Falkland War. The Finnish a capella group Club For Five arranged it for a capella. They graciously allowed HF to use their arrangement with Tim adding the echoes. Thanks.
Military Application is May.
@@HotCanineMilk I'm assuming Military "Appreciation" 😀. Good point
@@brendasorenson6186 Yeah. XD I'm not the best with spelling sometimes. My brain tends to go faster than my fingers. I always have to backtrack because I'll miss full words.
@@HotCanineMilk I know the feeling; fingers can't keep up with the brain! Then there's Spellchecker... 😅
Awesome reaction. And yes, we should always remember ALL veterans and honor them. This is hauntingly beautiful.
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. 😥
Those chords always remind me of a pipe organ. There was no percussion in this one, so Adam Rupp was able to give us that 5th part in the harmonies.
Choir of angels, these boys ❤
Wow these guys can harmonizes great reaction
Brothers in Arms" is a ballad by British rock band Dire Straits, the closing track on their fifth studio album of the same name, released on 18 October 1985.
It was written in 1982, the year of Britain's involvement in the Falklands War.
The Falklands militia was held under arrest, by the Argentinian army - and the population of the Falklands was less than 2000.
In the song, there is an opening riff of a thunder-storm i.e. rain. There is also mention of mountains and lowlands, as well as farming.
This song hits me hard, as well as being British, I’m also a vet of the Armed Forces.
It reminds me of my tour in Afghanistan.
When I hear “Brothers in Arms”, I don’t just think of us British, but I also think of my other brothers from the US, Danish, and Swedes who were by our side’s.
This song transcends multiple wars.
Kind Regards
It's like the ghosts of those who never made it home telling their stories 😢
To me , this is HF 'S true masterpiece!! Absolutely stunning!
Such a beautiful, sad song. The chorusing between the 2nd and 3rd verses puts me in mind of wailing at a funeral. The singing and harmonies are incomparable and the setting atmospheric. Thanks for playing this, your comments & reactions. We don't have Memorial Day in Canada, instead we have Remembrance Day, Nov. 11.
Such a beautiful song. This is a very sad and so moving. ❤❤
I always liked the Dire Straits version, but I only got really interested in this song through Home Free. (Although I have to be honest I think Dire Straits guitar playing is phenomenal)
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
The two versions are so very different. Knopfler's guitar moaning and wailing is examplary. HF though makes the entire poetry so clear, as they almost always do, and you just can't beat HF's harmonies.
Thank you❤!
Yeah, this one is so beautiful!! ❤❤
Kudos to you for saying that Memorial Day should be Memorial Month! Great reaction/analysis as usual.
The whole month of May is designated National Military Appreciation Month in the US.
Thank you for your opinion about our veterans. I also think they deserve more recognition than one day.
The whole month of May is designated National Military Appreciation Month in the US.
This one is a Masterpiece 🎉❤
National Military Appreciation Month is May 1 to May 31 every year since 1999.
I too had requested your reaction to this video because I knew you would appreciate the work that was put into this video. Thank you so much for your reactions.
Masterpiece 🖤🍟
Home Free has a talented production crew and will hire outside of their organization as needed.
Keep coming back to you Anthony. As much to listen to your intro as your reactions. Keeping it real, man, keeping it real. Appreciate you.
I very much appreciate the respect you showed by letting this one run. I can never get through this one without tearing up.
I loved what you said about making Memorial Day a month...and you live in another (very less violent) country. That was awesome Anthony. And your reaction was so spot on. I had to watch again to see what you saw. 💜
The whole month of May is designated National Military Appreciation Month in the US.
There is a month dedicated to National Military Appreciation- May and National Veterans and Military Families is November.
I always enjoy your takes on the videography and production -- one of the reasons I keep coming back to your channel. Home Free can stand still, and the beatboxer can sing instead, and you end up with 5 voices creating one beautiful instrument. We saw that also in their cover of "Helplessly Hoping." Sort of like a big pipe organ.
I also have been watching your own performances, looking to you for help in understanding rap. It was never my thing, and maybe it's the dark lyrics that permeate so much of it. But the quality of your bass voice is appealing and the poetry is good, so I keep looking.
You are one of the very few who has mentioned the video, Tim and Chance" ghosts" of soldier who have died in battle.
Loved your detailed analysis of this very moving song and hauntingly beautiful video and harmonies.
Not as well known but definitely among the best dynamics and group harmonies you’ll ever want to hear I highly recommend Voctave. They do a lot of Disney (many of the group sing for Disney), some broadway and also have lots of glorious Christmas music.
Pick anything and you’ll be amazed but their latest video Disney Villains and Heroes is phenomenal to hear the guys all solo and for the ladies the Disney Princess medley. Two absolute musts are: You Will Be Found (done during Quarantine) and The Prince of Egypt medley (audio only). I can’t wait for your jaw to drop when you discover this wonderful group!! 🎶
Yes, please!
Pentatonix is a big Acapella group, but a lot of reaction channels don't do them because Sony blocks a lot.
Voctave is another, but I don't see much of them.
Peter Hollens and Jared Hayley are neat to listen to because they are one man choirs. They tape layers of themselves singing and put them together.
But you are right. There are few groups that are big Acapella groups.
Straight No Chaser have been around for years, and are fabulous. But they tour so much, they don't do many videos.
Hauntingly beautiful. I agree with everything you said. Almost a black and white feel to the video. At times Tim and Chance looked ghostlike in the windows. See through quality in the windows/light. Loved the echoes. Tim was so low. Just a beautiful rendition. You’re in Belgium right?! Your country’s really been through it with two world wars. Goodness. My grandfather fought in the Ardennes. He survived. God bless. You sound like you could rival Tim for sure. 😍
.........Anthony!!!! I have maybe heard only one other person say that we should have Memorial Month. From what you said you don't even live in America. Not saying you need to be an American to understand and appreciate Sacrifice and Honor. But, that was very nice to hear. Thank you for mentioning that. Along those lines I personally think there could be a few other "Days" that should be "months". I thought i was the only one! This song hit HARD!! Very emotional. Loved, Loved your reaction. I am a new subscriber to you. Thank you.
The whole month of May is designated National Military Appreciation Month in the US.
@@lrfcowper True. Thank you for the correction. I guess I don't see the recognition as much or perhaps throughout the entirety of the month as maybe it should be. IDK, that could just be me not seeing it.
@@archashencmaa9937 People just don't do anything. It was designated in 1999, that's a lot of years for people to stop caring and doing stuff. If you want to see more recognition, then maybe talk with your towns/cities Rotary and Town/City officials and set something up.
I do appreciate that you let the music play to the end.
2 other acapella groups to look into would be Voctave (any video) and Pentatonix (Hallelujah video)
I'm a recent subscriber. I'm really enjoying your reactions of Home Free. I look forward to more from you.
Always enjoy your technical views❤
Tim is behind the window, but on top. He is ghostly. The lines on the palm, as that palm closes the Soldier’s dead eyes.
They can sing anything. Wow
Another terrific and educational reaction. Thank you!
Isn't it amazing that people from so many backgrounds and life styles can still come together and acknowledge incredible talent? That is so encouraging to me!
Its a really ballsy choice of song to cover because the electric guitar is such a HUGE part of the orignal song, and the fact that they pulled it off is just stunning
Lovely reaction, thank you for discussing the lighting, the video details and your opinions.
Home Free, VoicePlay and Pentatonix--those are my "big 3" acapella groups. And Home Free just nails this song, musically and visually.
I'm still hoping for the day when the world stops creating brothers in arms.
Thank you Anthony for a very thoughtful and caring treatment of this arresting song. I cried the firs time I heard it and still often find tears in my eyes as I listen and watch their masterful treatment. I TOTALLY agree that we SHOULD have a Memorial Month to honor the hundreds of thousands of troops we've lost in the wars that have affected and, in fact, still affect our country and we just don't celebrate and THANK all the men who give the time, energy and many their life to preserve and protect our country and our way of life. THANK YOU AGAIN!!
The whole month of May is designated National Military Appreciation Month in the US.
@@lrfcowper Thank you, I wasn't aware of that designation. We need to publicise it more so that everyone knows. On May 30, 1999, Congress designated National Military Appreciation Month as a month-long observance. Congress chose May because many military-related observances such as Memorial Day and Loyalty Day are celebrated and observed on that date.May 19, 2023
Yes 👍🏽 Home Free is Amazing. This cover song 🎶 was beautifully done. TY Anthony for taking the time to React to this cover. 🙋🏻♀️❤️🔥🎶🇺🇸
❤HOMEFREE ❤
Yes. Every country, a GD effing month dude. Love it. Love you're reactions, it's nice to see Rupp get some real love
Loved it🎉❤
I completely agree that we should have a full month to remember those who have fought and died for us. Someone in my family has been in every war since the Civil War. It means so much that there are those who are willing to fight for our freedom.
Love your station! Love your reviews!
This was written by Mark Knopfler of Dire Straits. Moving.
This song punches me in the gut every time and the 3:55 mark that gives me goosebumps. Great to see people turned on to all types of music, not just what the radio tells us to like.
This still makes me sad and sometimes I cry.
I hear you about honoring those who served, who gave their lives (as you say, regardless of one's personal beliefs about war in general or specific wars and conflicts) for one day doesn't seem enough.
As someone else commented, there is a month for Military Appreciation.
But even if there wasn't, I think shutting the entire country and government down for a whole day is a better honor than naming a month in their honor where the month will pass by with the majority of folks not even realizing it.
Even the most oblivious are forced to notice when the schools, banks, work, closes down, and thousands, maybe tens of thousands of acts of honor from planting flags on graves to breakfast services to, at least in our little island off the coast of Maine, a parade and a full day of events, some somber, but all celebrating ours who "went there, gave all".
I'm proud to say I was in one of those parades, maybe 15 years ago. I marched as part of the Women's Auxillary of our American Legion Outpost, and my dog was the honorary Canine Corp. Picture a super giant Great Dane high stepping to the band, tossing his head in time to the music, darn near stealing the entire show.
I'll spare you the details of the military history of both my biological and adoptive families, give the gist to support my thought.
Even though I'm mainly a pacifist, I grew up enough somewhere along the line to be humbly unspeakably proud of their enormous and heroic efforts. Since on my adoptive side I have relatives who served from the revolutionary War straight down to my nephew who recently served 7 years on a nuclear submarine.
Don't know as much about my bio family, but know my bio father did 4 tours in Vietnam in the Marines, my brother was a marine, my cousin in the Navy, and brother-in-law served in the airforce in the Persian Gulf War.
And then there's my Native American grandmother's ancestors, about how they may or may not have fought for which causes or why I know nothing.
All these soldier relatives generally admit being conflicted, not necessarily realizing what they were actually fighting for, or their reasons for enlisting in the first place. And I'll leave it at that.
So yeah, I'll take one whole day, rather than the too easily overlooked or ignorable month where those who understand or served or lost loved ones console and celebrate and remember with each other. And everyone else goes obliviously about their life, not tuning in to the occasional Military Appreciation Month special program on network TV.
God, I weep so easily! Sorrow, awe, pride.
Thanks for an awesome reaction. I watch many, but I can honestly say I find yours the most thoughtful, intelligent, thought provoking. Heck, you take notes! How rare and special is that!
Anthony.. You are SO right.. We should have a Memorial month !!!!!
The whole month of May is designated National Military Appreciation Month in the US.
I love this masterpiece, and your insights are amazing! Yes, it's very somber and haunting to me. Thank you for showing me some things I missed, and explaining some reasons I love it. Best wishes on your new song!
Pentatonics is also a wonderful Acapella group that I’m sure you’ve heard of also. They are great too but Home Free is my absolute favorite!❤️
What an in depth reaction. It was great and you pointed out things I had missed. I hear you about a memorial month.
The whole month of May is designated National Military Appreciation Month in the US.
Your stuff is educational and insightful - I always learn something from your videos!
Amen brother it should be a memorial month
The whole month of May is designated National Military Appreciation Month in the US.
Love your Reaction and your voice! ♥️
his one allways gives me tears..
You’re an awesome reactor. I learn lots from you. See things I hadn’t realized before.
Thank you so much!!
♥️🌟💙
Appreciate the props to our veterans.
Original by Mark Knopfler of Dire Straits in reaction to the Falklands war. He became one of the top 20 guitarists! He is British but loves America too!
I love that when they opt for no beatboxing, they do true 5 -part harmony and very rarely just double one of the normal 4 vocal parts. Adam Rupp is singing some of those high lines, higher than Austin in places.
They were very ethereal!
fun fact: it is a month. most people just don't know.
I love your reaction videos.
Great reaction, as usual. FYI - May 1 to May 31 is National Armed Forces Appreciation Month in the US. It's just not very publicized.
Interesting that a song composed to honour the perspective from a soldier in a senseless war as a protest, is perceived as a salute to patriotism now.
Composed in response to the Falkland War off the coast of Argentina back in 1982. OPPOSING 'Brothers in Arms" all fighting and dying, in the folly of a war for others.
By the way, Military Appreciation month is May! It was designated as an appreciation month in 1999.
❤
As the daughter if a WW2 vet and the mother of a retired Marine Iraqi war vet, I am in complete agreement with you. These men and women deserve more than 2 days(I am including Veteran's Day) a year. Most people don't even notice Veteran's Day, and Memorial Day is an excuse to party and get the boat out. Even those who survive will never be the same....either physically, mentally or emotionally. Those boys who landed in Normandy were kids....who'd never left their home state, or even their home town. Never fell in love, never married, never became dads....and they died within minutes of landing. We are teetering on the brink of war again. When will we discover.....nobody wins?😢
Check out their tour dates! They may come to Belgium. Because I think there coming to your side of the world.
FYI, May is National Military Appreciation Month in the US.
Although I'm a Home Fry, you did miss another a capella group - Pentatonix. Try listening to their rendition of "Hallelujah".
You're missing one important a capella group: Pentatonix. All three groups have their flavors.
You are a fascinating personality to me. You speak like an old soul but of a place I know nothing about yet sharing music is beautiful. I found you by not subscribing to others. 😉Be well.
👍😎✌🏻
You should always prepare some paper & a pen... 😅
The lighting is supposed to depict that thetre ghosts
My son suffered life changing injuries in Helmand Province 2009. I’m supposed to be normal. Nah. I’m gone. However I’m a good actor .
your girfriend probly loves this one also. let her hear this :) greetings from the Netherlands.
I don’t have a gf
@@AnthonyRay oh i thought the girl in some of your video's was your girlfriend sry.
Oh I see, I get that though, no need to say sorry
Een Goed punt Veteranen maand in plaats van een dag Zelf ben in een Dutch Army Vet thanks for the reaction
Black & white - except for the flag.
I know this is a 6 month old reaction, but I was wondering do other countries have a flag like our ~POW*MIA You Are Not Forgotten~ flag?
💜💔💟
This is a song about the sensekessness of modern warfare and yet evhoes a sentiment held by the common warrior throughout the annals of time.
The use if lighting to shiw light oassing through the singers shiws the ghostsof those who have akways fought only to find on the battlefield that you fo not fight for a flag or fir piliticians. You fight fir that warriorby your side snd do has it been inall battkes.
i prefer your real reaction over the cut off just make a bigger outro we are here for your reaction after all. i feel you cut out what you feel like wasn't important but thats the stuff we wanna hear.
By the way don’t ask me to forgive. That’s not in what’s left of my life.
Can you please react to alot of good songs came out like shalala taeyong, ateez bouncy, shinee go hard
Thank you very much for allowing this to go. The respect you showed was enormous and appreciated by this old Marine. Love your channel.
