Only thing that would've made this reaction better would have been if he'd tacked on "Colder Memory Lapse" at the end! LOL 😉🤪

You need to watch Colder Weather - Memory Lapse. Just pee before you start it…

They really stepped it up artistically with their interpretation with the sentimental scenes in the windows, the setting in the cabin and their clothing choices. They also, made significant enhancements in their vocals that set them apart from their original release. As you indicated they set the bar higher with each release against their own performances. They already are elite and they never settle. Their ability to assess themselves with increased performance values is impeccable and a very unique gift in this production/performance that keeps the freshness for us the audience in awe. ❣

This song gets more beautiful with every new version of theirs. But my favorite version of this song will forever be "Colder Memory Lapse."

Thanks for the triple feature. I have always loved this song when Home Free first did it on the "Sing Off" & then redid it a few years later. But I think this 3rd remake is my favorite version now. I always enjoy the songs that showcase all the individual voices.

When they sang this in Colorado last December, they teased the crowd because we cheered. Tim was like "You just like having your state named"

The reason they've redone all of these Sing Off songs is for the 10 year anniversary of winning.

I love every one of their recent upgrade releases. They just keep getting better all the time. Edit: I get he distinct impression that the singer is a trucker that has to be gone from home much more than he wants to be.

Colder weather memory lapse will always be my favorite version. It’s priceless! I agree, Chris has the sweetest voice, my favorite tenor!

I want a weekend by the 🔥 with Home Free too

The "As Seen on TV" album was all the songs they did on The Sing-Off as a 10-year retrospective, whether they'd done a later recording with Chance or not. The upcoming "Crazy(er) Life" is a remake of their first post-Sing-Off album, "Crazy Life" with Chance on the baritone instead of Chris, also as a 10-year retrospective.

All 3 versions are epic

If you want to hear epic Chris Rupp, I suggest his team-up with Tim Foust for 'Long Black Train'. As I said, EPIC!!! 🥰🥰 Great job!! Loved it!! 🥰🥰🥰🥰🥰

Judges were not happy that the guys didn't follow the judges want of either Austin or Tim soloing, they said not how we role. They almost lost the competition cause of this. The show always wanted to make it about Tim and Austin.

Avi has been my low voice favorite, but once I hear Chance in Wayfaring Stranger, I snuggled him up just under Avi. What a sound.

❤🤠#HomeFree. Amazing,so beautiful 😍🥰. They're all so wonderful. I do prefer their last version. I so much enjoy your reactions., good job. 🏠🍟💯

The harmonies are beautiful of Colder Weather. They all did great on this song. The third one is different and I love it. I like your reactions on Colder Weather.

You are correct about them dropping the background out for Austin's part. Also notice that his ramp up is much smoother and softer. Before this version it was mostly (gorgeous) vocal pyrotechnics. In this one, he slowly builds to an emotional peak.

Love seeing all 3 versions. They just keep getting better! I have been listening to Home Free for 11 years now and will never stop. I am a Home Fry and an Austinite for life! Love your reaction!♥

#HOMEFREE.....unmatched harmonies!

They released all their songs they did on the Sing off for the Album as Seen on TV

Memory Lapse is my favorite version... gorgeous singing but I totally cracked up laughing... Austin and Tim 🤣🤣🤣🤣

First - I'm a singer, and yes, stand-up singing is better for us! AND posture helps, but it's still not the same as getting that diaphragm really free. Thanks for reacting to these all together. What fun it is to compare and see the progress. The last one is the best one. Hands down. They have come so far. Second - yes, they layered Austin. No doubt. BTW as an aside - the vibe I get from Chris is that he was never in it for the spotlight. He's a musical magician behind the scenes and always has been. Love his dancing, too, but that's just a bonus :) Plus Chris has some amazing shining moments in so many Home Free songs, so there are many more things for you to hear from him. Third - Thank you for reacting to the guys again. Love your reactions.

I really like the original Zac Brown Band version of this song but this...this is next level. Colder Weather is now a Home Free song. I don't make the rules! The Sing Off version of this song was really cute and pretty. The second version was fabulous and felt very updated. And then the new version...that was just...I got major goosebumps and all sorts of good tinglies...LOL Thank you to Teri for choosing this song, it is absolutely wonderful to see their improvement and how they are making this their own... And thank you DJ for covering all three versions of the songs and reacting to them in one reaction, truly shows the improvement and the difference. As someone who is not very musically intelligent, this is a wonderful way to see these songs. Plus you know I will never complain about more DJ! #HerdLove

That was good of you doing all 3 versions. I heard the band fought to have Rob sing the lead on this during the Sing Off as the producers wanted Tim or Austin to do it and the judges were the most critical of them in this song. I think their voices are more mature now and Adam shows off more of what he can do. 😍😄

There's a live version where Austin forgets the words which is hilarious!!! Like a fine wine, Home Free definitely gets better with time. I hate that Austin is leaving as well but thankful that Rob and Adam Rupp didn't leave when they started families.

DJ, I I love that you reacted to all three video version of Colder Weather! They are all unique, and each one was better than the previous. There was an audio version with Chris on the Full of Cheer album. I honestly can’t remember if there was a video with Chris. I love how you mentioned how it’s easier to sing standing than sitting unless you have proper posture. I remember my high school choir director reminding us all to sit up straight and elongate our upper bodies, I also appreciate how you (unnecessarily) apologized for not commenting on Chance in your earlier reactions, recognizing what an incredible talent he truly is. Great reaction and commentary!

This is one of my favorites from Home Free ... I prefer the last version ... something so warm and haunting about each of their voices in it ! Really will miss Austin's high tenor after he leaves but I'm sure they'll find the perfect person to add to the mix. Love these guys so much !

My guy! I just love your reactions! You're just so genuine. I feel like I'm there listening to the music with you, and I love it. I think we would be good friends outside of the internets! ❤😁🤣

I absolutely love this song by them. And I always find it so amusing, yet accurate, that in each update, they all make little tweaks to their parts according to their growth, EXCEPT TIM 😂 like they all collectively decided "Oh yeah let's definitely to this to the song, and Austin that new run is perfect, Chance, that sounds amazing, but Tim? Stay the same. You're perfect JUST the way you are" 😂

Yes, they do double (triple?) track Austin in some places in both of the studio versions. And I don't even care. Just makes it sound fuller. I have seen them do this live, too, and it's just a great without the extra tracks.

Yes. it’s a Taylor Swift effect. They can now own these versions that are updated. I think that’s brilliant of them to do.

Wayyyy fuller and all of these new releases sound that way

Ok. Great 3 fer.... BUT, now you just MUST do the memory lapse video. "Nah nah nah nah nah nah...."...😂😂❤❤

Great reaction! "Colder Weather" was my favorite of their "Sing-Off" performances and the newest version is perfection.

I have tickets to see Home Free next week in Stafford, Tx. near Houston. It will be our fourth time to see them.

Beautiful boys

Enjoyed your reaction....if you want to hear more Chris....check out Angels Among Us...which is Chris and Tim! Also Long Black Train is also Chris and Tim!

Thank you for this one. My soul needed this. May your day be joyful 💜

Home Free will never be the same without Austin and whoever replaces him, has a big shoe to fill

Great reaction ❤❤❤❤ love the triple play lol

The Sing Off version is lovely, and the older version is excellent, but I think this latest version is a masterpiece. It's a completely new recording, and thanks to the upgraded production everyone just shines. All of them are showing how they have matured as vocalists and performers. Adam's percussion is powerful but subtle, and Rob demonstrates why the producers on the Sing Off were idiots to discount him. It's definitely worth seeing all three together to see and hear how they have developed.. . . . . . . But I also agree that the notorious live version is also worth a reaction 😂

One of their best for sure❤

I really, really love the fact that you reacted to the progression of all 3 versions. Brilliant! Sending much love, support and blessings from a loyal Subscriber!🎷🙏🏼🇺🇸

The last version is waouh waouh waouh

I loved it, I really loved it and I will always love it as long as it is Home Free! Thanks for your reaction!

I'm glad you showed all three versions. I had the opportunity to hear them sing this live in December. Great reaction.

I hit on Chances voice right away, so smooth and silky and an amazing storyteller. Some of his ideas for the group have been such amazing hits with one of my favorites is 'Helplessly Hoping' which was a complete Chance project. I love all the guys voices etc but Chance won me over right from he start.

Yes, it's everything you said it was. New recording, sounds better (I'm guessing new recording equipment), they've grown. Also, I think they did the rerecordings to make a new album (for money) but more importantly, so they can get rights to these songs because now they are independant. And people can react to them on YT without worrying about copyright issues. Thanks for another awesome reaction 🍟🎵❤

Thanks 😊

I agree that you need to do the Colder Winter Memory relapse!!

They released the second version because they had no studio recording of it, and when they re-did Full of Cheer into Full of (Even) More Cheer with Chance it seemed like the logical time to do a full studio production, and replace the live version on Full of Cheer that was from the Sing Off Tour. Don't beat yourself up for overlooking Chance. Particularly in his early days w/ HF, Chance suffered from the same fate that Chris did - baritones don't get a lot of stand out solos. Yes, I know he is a bass, but he was replacing a baritone and until they had a chance to create new songs/arrangements to take advantage of his range, he was cast as a baritone.

What a wonderful song this remains. Every time I not only hear it, but I feel it too! Every part of every member is amazing! The video is also so beautifully done.

Please do Colder Memory Lapse, you'll love it ❤

I remember this, I felt the judges really liked having Austin as the lead singer. I think they had to fight for their spot because VP decided to change the lead.

Love all 3 versions, but i like the newest one the best. Great reaction

The one thing that strikes me about the third version is that the harmonies are clearer, sharper, and more specific. Not sure I can explain it any better. I really appreciate hearing all three. I've seen the first and third before, but definitely never saw the second one. I don't think you're listening to things that aren't there. They're there, just so well integrated it makes you doubt what you're hearing. Great reaction!

They just keep getting better and better! Thanks for the three peat!!❤

ONE FOR THE ALGORITHM. CHEERS!!

Zac Brown band, does it good but they have improved it alot with their a motions.❤

Thanks for the triple reaction! All three versions are good, but each re-recording is better than the last (IMO). It really shows off their personal and collective growth and maturity. I was mildly surprised that their newest version was better, b/c the other was so good. And Chance? When you're in a group where everyone, including him, is ridiculously talented, it can be hard for a person to keep up with all five talented men.

Sounds like latest version is in a bit higher key.

This version is fuller, there’s more “instrumentation” for one thing. Also they all upgraded their own parts.

I think its a few things. #1 This is not confirmed, but I think the fries really wanted studio versions of Cruise, Pretty Women, and I want crazy and they decided to rerecord the entire sign off set. #2 That then brought to light the idea to redo the ceazy life and take over ownership. Thats my take anyway.

This is an amazing video. Love these guys so much. ❤️❤️❤️

Thanks DJ! 🖤🍟

On the sing off version, Rob's voice sounds very strained.

❤

You’re very intuitive. Colder Weather does refer to mental illness in this one.

Funny fact, the producers absolutely were against Rob taking a lead on any song...they wanted Austin to do all the leads on the show...but Home Free wouldn't have it.

It's probably Acapella right?❤

Please react to Gabriel Henrique Cover Oh Holy night (Mariah Carey)

Nope it is fuller
