I like your style of 'reaction.'. You don't jabber over the top of the performance, missing large parts of what your supposed to react to. Those folks I just don't follow. You respect the performance by listening through or by stopping it if a comment is needed in the moment. Your face is wonderfully expressive. You are commenting every second as you watch. As to too much Home Free, phhhiiiittt. Ain't no such thang.

When the trolls get too strong, just look over your left shoulder. Follow the advice from the poster on the wall. You're one of the top reactors. Don't let a few keyboard warriors cast doubt on that.

Do what you need to do to get your reactions up. I have always found you thoughtful and insightful. The negativity in this world can be overwhelming at times.

Brings goosebumps listening to them and these harmonies!! Your reactions are great no matter if you stop or let it play. Thank you for staying true to your Home Fries!

Home Free is phenomenal! If people don't like it, they don't have to listen. Personally, I think anyone who says HF isn't good, I think they're not telling the truth. Beautiful!!!!!

Thank you so much for including Home Free in your channel. You are correct, that they are incredibly in sync. They are friends, travel together, and it shows how much they love performing together. Thanx again, Mindy

Great choice! Thanks so much! As for anyone who isn't happy, remember Ricky Nelson said you can't please everyone so you gotta please yourself.

In my book you are a spot on -top-notch reactor, not only do you listen deeply to every bit of it, even going over it again at the good points, being a talented performer yourself, you have that musical talent and recognize what other music talent is, through different genres. You are class, as well as have some humor and I really appreciate what you are doing. I'm here for it.

Ignore the haters, man - Home Fries are a huge group of loyal, die hard fans. Continuing to react to Home Free will build your channel FAST.

Always enjoy your reactions, don't EVER change bro stay true to yourself, always supporting you from New Zealand and Australia

You do what you want to do, it's your channel. If someone wants it done another way, let them start their own channel. Personally, I love the way you do these reactions. So, Thank you, for standing your ground. This is absoultely beautiful, and it would be a crying shame to break it up. Merry Christmas!

I do find their take on this absolutely amazing! But hell, then again -- they're amazing themselves. They kill each and every time; so tight and blended. Phenomenally Exceptional.

Don't worry about what people say. If they don't like it they don't have to watch it. You've done some artists I don't care about and I just don't watch those videos. I say react however you want to or need to. If people don't like it they can leave.

Enjoyed the reaction, brother. FYI, the guy at the sound board is their producer, Darren Rust. You saw them invade his house in Grandma Got Run Over By A Reindeer. They typically record their albums in the studio he has in his basement, Skyland Studios.

You just have to thrush out the negative. It does not matter what they think...you know nothing is absolute. I love your reactions pure and simple as that. Keep up the good work and don't let the haters consume you. Hope you are having a wonderful Christmas !!

Awesome

One of my favorite things to do (when possble) is to go back to hear the first time a reactor checks out Home Free. I came on board with them, like most folks, after the Sing-Off, in fact it was their Thinking Out Loud/Let's Get It On mashup that hooked me. Folks who don't dig a cappella haven't really listened to it.

A capella is the purest form of music there is and cuts straight to the heart and soul. Thank you for these reviews.

I am a huge Home Fry and love these guys. .. Thanks for being there for them too.

FANTASTIC!!!! Only thing we do differently here in Scotland is stand in a circle, crossing our arms across our bodies and taking the hands of the people on either side of us and bounce our arms/hands!!!!! Makes me eager for Hogmanay (what the Scottish call New years eve!!!! It's more important to the Scottish than Christmas!!!!!) Oh and the words to Auld Lang Side were written by Robert Burns a famous writer!!!! We'll "Tack" a cup oh kindness...... there's SO MANY verses to it.... I'm NOT criticising just sharing knowledge!!!!

No! Never stop doing Home Free!!! They are the best! 2 requests: Hillbilly Bone and Helplessly Hoping. Both amazing!

Don't mind the stops and appreciate the little rewinds. Wondering in the new year if you could do a bit of Jim Croce(doesn't matter which one) . I have watched a couple other reactions and they don't even get his name right. I think he was great songwriter and artist with his character songs to the love songs. Anyways ,have a Great New Year !

I'm usually just a quiet 'lurker' but want to chime in here as well. I love the way you do your reactions, please just keep doing them how YOU want to. You only pause when you have something to say which might be forgotten until the video ends. And you always go back a little so you don't miss anything. As a lot others have already said - if anybody wants to watch the complete video without interruptions, just go to the artists YT-channel to watch it and support the said artist at the same time!

This song is usually sang around 11:30 pm on New years Eve Auld Lang's Syne roughly translates to " For Old Times Sake" Originally it was a poem written in 1780 by Robert Burns,

Job well done. Love those harmonies. Thank you! ^_^

Great reaction! More PTX please, maybe their newest video for "You're a mean one Mr. Grinch" or also one of their older covers.

I absolutely love your reactions, and I hate that you had to spend this video reacting to haters, rather than this great video. Keep doing what you do, sir.

You are one of my favorite reactors! Don’t change a thing! Love this song!

Just beautiful. Thank you for reacting to this one. I saw Home Free perform this live and was just mesmerized by their pure harmonies. I love your reactions just the way you do them. I hope you won’t let all of the people who seem to think they should tell YOU how to do YOUR reactions on YOUR channel get you down. Keep up the great work.

I have enjoyed all your reactions!! I am in constant awe of the talent Home Free has and all the pauses are exactly were many of their fans stop and re-watch too - cause really who wouldn't! Thank you for your hard work and keep doing your favorite artist reactions it is your channel after all!

Love Home Free they're great

Thank you for this reaction and for all you do. I love your reaction style, and will keep coming back. Just ignore the malcontents. I think the only criticism I've given to a reactor was to say, "Do NOT talk while Freddie Mercury is singing." I also love this old Scots song, and Scots & Irish music in general. It's in my DNA. Maybe I'll prepare a short list of Irish music for you to listen to on St. Patrick's day.

All folks need to do is watch your expressions to get your reaction, whether you stop the video or not. I wish people could edit out their own negativity and youtube would stop interfering with fantastic channels. You are doing a great job and kudos to HF as well.

Drama if they don't like Home Free they or the way you do your reactions. Screw them. You don't need that kinda negativity in your life. I stumbled across your channel accidentally and you're my go to reactor now. Your reactions are genuine and heart felt. Stay true to you or you become someone else.

PLEASE do not stop playing Home Free! And I love to listen to the great parts when you hear them! Let them find another channel!

React any way that feels right to you. If I want to hear the video straight through I can go listen on my own. I love hearing what you are thinking when it happens. I especially love your 'we gonna listen to that again' face...rewind. :D Going to make a request for a little known a cappella group: The Parting Glass [Official Face Vocal Band Rendition]

I'm a new subscriber and I love all your reactions. One of the things I liked about your reactions is that you don't use all the foul language that most reactors do. I'm a big fan of Home Free and you've done some wonderful reactions. Could you check out Thank God for Texas, they did that song after the flood in Houston. Also take a listen to Chris Rupp's final song with the group it's called Movin On. He left to pursue his own music. You checked out The Righteous Brothers earlier, check out their song, I Just Wanna Make Love To You.

Love your channel!!! You are genuine! Got to see Home Free a few months ago, they were fantastic! Not one wrong note❤❤👏👏👏👏👏👏👏

I like it when you stop and give a little insight, to sometimes stuff I have missed ..and I learn something...THANK YOU.. I also don't feel I have missed any of the song, because you rewind it a bit before you stopped...how refreshing...AND I do have the option to go hear it in its full entirety on my own! Thank you again! Have a Happy Homefry New Year!

You are doing everything just right !!!!! Please continue and I just cant say enough about how wonderful Home Free is. Their music means so much to many, many people, and to experience them live is fabulous. I do listen to other music, Freddie Mercury and Queen has always been a favorite and I love Avi Kaplan.

You are a fine reactor who knows how to do a good analysis, and it's very obvious that you enjoy music. Keep up the good work...no complaints from this old lady. :-D

I like your reactions whichever way you want to do them. You put more thought and consideration into your comments than other reactors, which I appreciate.

I love, absolutely love your reactions to Home Free. I love anything Home FRee you react to. I appreciate any way you choose to react, but I don't like reactors who stop the song every few seconds or talk while the sing is playing. So, you do you, Sir and I am here for it. As long as it is Home Free (wink wink).

I love the way you do the reactions. That's why you're my favorite right now. Thx so much!!

I've just found you on You Tube and enjoy your reactions to, especially, Home Free. I watch your face while you're listening to them. It says it all to me.

That was FIRE. I love how you feel and not afraid to say it.

6:25 This is one of the reasons I subscribed, I appreciate you doing this and it's how it should be. I don't enjoy vocal coach reactions or whatever, pausing all the time explaining shit I'm already hearing, just let the song keep going. When you do stop, it's because you want to hear it again, you rewind and your smile gets me every time! That's how a reaction video should be. Thank you from Sweden, much love!

I love the passion that you show for these guys! How you checked out their version of God Bless the USA by Lee Greenwood?

I don't understand why anyone would disagree with any of your content. Yours are the only reactions I have subscribed to.

EXACTLY...that is my son’s favorite saying...”IT IS WHAT IT IS !!!” Love it.....and, you’ve started so simply

I'm wirth you, truly listening to the song is how one experiences the song and the story of the song! Keep up the good work! There are always critics or those who live to be downers! 🎼🎃💙🦋🐾🐈

Wish you nothing but success in 2020. I think you are one of the most thoughtful reactors....

I, for one, am thankful that you’ll continue to react to Home Free! That is how I discovered your channel, and you. I think you’re a cool guy that I would love to hang out with and talk about music and other things. As for this video, it’s such a classic done to perfection. These guys are getting more exposure, and I truly believe they deserve radio play, but they are doing very well considering they are not! Their fan base continues to grow (no surprise there). Here’s to more Home Free for 2020! As usual, I enjoyed your reaction.

Your reactions are lovely & people need to chill the eff out. Period. ❤ People are so ridiculous...if I am not a fan of the group or person someone is reacting to, I just don't watch. I don't understand why that is such a difficult concept for people to grasp. 😐 Great reaction as always Michael darlin. 🥰

That was sublime. Such intricacies with the harmonies. You're doing just fine. One of the reasons, I'm subscribed. Your facial reactions tell me what I need to know, and are usually what my face looks like when listening.

Lovely reminds one of why we celebrate the new year

Love you as you are, and love your reactions, as they are. Since you always rewind, I don't mind how many times you stop. I get irritated when reactors talk over the video or stop and miss key elements in the videos. You, however, rarely miss anything! Keep on doin' your thing, your way!

I saw them in December and they sang thus with no mics at all. You could have heard a pin drop!! It’s was astounding!!

I think it's brilliant that you cover Home Free. They are amazing, and so are you.

For some groups there are lots of good places to pause, but when you're dealing with those tight harmonies, or symphonic metal like Nightwish, with all the diversity in the score, there are too many things you can miss if you pause and don't rewind, so honestly, your way is perfect for those 2 categories. Even if not, still your channel. I know I don't mind Home Free :)

All success, subscribers and wonderful music in the New Year!!

Thank you for reacting to Home Free.

Always look forward to your reactions. This was so clean and beautiful.

Home Free is one of my favourite groups.For something VERY different you might want to try a metal cover by Leo from Frogleap Studios.Maybe their cover of Africa by Toto...

Thank you sir for yet another outstanding reaction vid!!!! (i love them all).......your reaction vids are always well thought out and well reasoned, not to mention full of depth!! Yours are a true "thinking mans" type of reaction responses! Keep up the great work! Take care and God bless!!

Home Free is the best ..your doing an awesome job ..ignore the haters,,, Helplessly Hoping is another they do that demonstrates their perfect blend

Drama, you can't please everyone so don't worry about it, please. You do your reactions the way YOU want them done and those of us who appreciate you, will keep watching you, no matter what you have to do! 😉 I love your authenticity and knowledge of music and it shows that you appreciate other artists work. I am also a singer and I love seeing the reactions on your face when you hear an unexpected harmony or note you like. I especially love your silliness when you rewind and repeat a part several times because you like it. And that silly grin cracks me up! 😁 Thank you for all you do! XO Laura

I just discovered you today and one of the things that has had me watching your reacts for the past 4 hours now, is when you get so moved or excited about something that you have to stop and hear it again!

keep doing what you do that's why we like you

Home Fry to the Patreon. I love all their music!!!

I can tell you really know music and I appreciate that you appreciate Home Free. My sister...a PTX only fan...even though involved in A Capella does not see or hear their quality sound.

Hi DS, I think you do great reactions; you don't have to say anything while the song is playing it's your facial expressions that say so much. (And when you do stop, which isn't often) it's for a good reason. So you just carry on doing your thing, you are great!

Hey i personally love it when i can hear the song and just watch you reaction than you tell me what you think. Like it keep up the good work.

Beautiful!

I enjoy the way you react to the songs. You do whatever you wish to do. Stop the song, don't stop the song. That's your choice. We'll love it either way. People can always hunt the video up to watch it all the way through without stopping on their own, if they wish to.

Pronounced Old lang sine. Scottish for old long since. In other words; in the old days. Hey, everybody who doesn't like what Dramasyde reviews, go watch someone who reviews what you like. He should do what he likes.

I love home free

Hi there Drama! I'm a pentaholic and a Home Fry. I binged watched almost all of your reactions, because you show a genuine and honest nature. With that being said, I really want your take on Nightwish! They are a symphonic metal band from Finland. If you react to them, you'll get the Nightwish army flooding to your channel! You'll love their 3rd (and current singer,) Floor Jansen! I recommend starting with Ghost Love Score from their Wacken 2013 concert. You won't regret reacting to them, I PROMISE!

Coming back for a second listen. I love your reactions. Good music is good music. Shame on haters. Much love to you and hope this season is better for you. xoxoxoxo

thank you my brother. please stay the way you are

i love home free

Keep doing you. I love your reaction videos. I am partial to the Home after reactions - what can I say I’m a Home Fry. I would love to see your reaction to Meant to Be - Home Free w/ Lisa Cimarelli. It’s worth your time.

You have a steady and grounded soul. Thank you for this reaction.

LOVE YOUR REACTIONS & HOME FREE

Powerful Perfection 😍Happy New Year!!!😉🥰✌🏽

Lol. You spoke on people complaining about Home Free. They are why I subscribed to ur channel, Home Free is an awesome force, I enjoy watching people reacting like you do....you cut away the instruments etc...all that's left do they have it. Or not. I say YESSS!!! Nice channel...keep up the good work !!!

You can’t please everyone. If you try, you please no one!. Play and review what you enjoy.

They did this song in their Christmas show I saw in December. No mics...you could have heard a pin drop!!!

Your reactions of home free are why i subscribed. I like your authenticity in what you do.

Goodness me! What a strange idea of what a reaction is!?! Keep doing what you are doing - love your reactions - whether you stop, give that adorable 4th wall grin and replay bits or wait to the end to comment - it's all good! Also good music is GOOD MUSIC, whatever the genre! As always, thank you for sharing

Goose bumps! Brother, you are one of my favorites, just forget the negative, take the constructive criticism, and appreciate the positive as I know you do.

I appreciate your approach. I agree that people do not have a right to complain if they don't let you know what they want. The number of times you have reacted to Home Free just lets me know that there are enough of us Home Fries out there that bug you to react to them. :)

Thank you for staying true to you!

Thanks, Michael. Hope you had lovely holidays. Enjoying your channels and looking forward to 2020. All the best to you!

I love your format, your opinion of the song and your honesty. If you stop to make a comment or back up (I love that, lol) and replay a part you want to question, clarify or hear again I'm good with that. I know you've been dealing with criticism but unless I'm wrong it's your channel, yes? I am sorry people feel the need to resort to negativity when there is such an overabundance of it to last eons. If as a listener you don't agree with something say your piece but be nice, 'tis not that difficult. Another great reaction and always look forward to the next. Cheers.

I love them. thanks.

Love your reactions! You are the best reactor out there!

Excellent reaction video

You do you!

your reaction is just your facial reaction to the song as its being played. but do it your way,and youtube way. homefree are a special entertainers
