These guy's are fantastic

Rob was trained in opera while he was college but had not sung it for 15 years. Austin was trained in Musical theater but his college teachers tried to get him to sing opera. Austin had to push Rob into doing this, they were afraid of how their fans would react. The response has been overwhelmed positive. Thank for your reaction and you have a blessed day.

Wow my first time hearing this thought I heard all their songs excellent.

The last verse... i will win. I win...." yes, yes they win. ❤❤

I am so glad that you reviewed this one! Thanks

They almost had me in TEARS near the end

As goofy as Home Free can be, to the most gut wrenching, their productions are always spot-on. They never disappoint.

This is why music is such an amazing language, all in itself.......I do not understand one word they sang, but I felt the music, and their voices, and was very emotional ❣❣❣

Yup, that is truly them.

Brothers in Arms is Home Free's *masterpiece*...try to react soon to their cover of The Driver too....so gorgeous

I STRONGLY suggest you react to "Brothers in Arms" and "Mayday" as a two-for-one reaction since they both start with Tim Foust and show off why each of the Home Free members are stars in their own right. If you want to see Rob explore different genres, he raps in "The Butts Medley/Remix" and sings blues in Home Free's cover of "End of the Road".

Great reaction!

If you want to see the fun side of this group, check out Butts remix.

Our boys really hit the ball out of the park. Rob's voice is so much lower and richer. Austin can always hit those high notes. These two are amazing. ❤️❤️❤️

Just amazing. Thank you ^_^

I ❤ Home Free.

Puccini aria’s are incredible, Nessun Dorma is my favorite tenor aria, heard it the first time in the movie Witches of Eastwick, of course sung by Pavarotti. Rob blew me away, he has been hiding his gorgeous dramatic tenor voice for 15 years, I am so thrilled that they did this. Pronunciation is perfect with both, Austin is very good in this, much more lyrical tenor. I have loved Home Free for years, just another reason to love them.

Rob was actually trained in Opera. And Austin was a musical theater background in college. Truly enjoyed watching your reaction to this song.

These guys can sing anything. All five of them are individually great talents. Together they are simply amazing.

I have listened to this song 17 times. I'm still getting goose bumps every time. Amazing, Beautiful. Thanks for the reaction.

I'll watch you if you want to drink some water.. I'd probably enjoy it . I loved your reaction 🌺

One is going to have to do many many videos by this group just to understand the depth, range, and talent of these 5 guys.. You are fast becoming a Home Fry. Enjoy the ride.!!!

Rob had sang Opera but he hadn't done it in 15 years. Austin was trained in musical theater but his teacher tried to push him into Opera. Austin had to convince Rob to do this Aria. They slayed it. For an in-depth reaction and Analysis too they're singing I have provided a link to a channel titled bass singer reacts in the gentleman's name is Peter Barber. He is a trained opera singer and because they are doing it so well and he gives them major props for this he reacts to it as an opera singer would so things like diction and carrying a note and mouth position. I learned an awful lot from it. Once again because they did such a good job what the things he points out are little nitpicks to and opera singer would sound like. I loved your reaction I'm going to check your catalog and see if you react to the songs that I enjoy. But I really enjoyed this. As far as When a Man Loves a Woman we will agree to disagree on that. Opinions exist and therefore they have a right to exist even if it is different from your opinion. Here is the link kzfaq.info/get/bejne/p6iHp7Vhx7eoe3k.html

Love your reaction. Everyone has filled you in. The surprise factor is always fun to watch. Rob suggested the title. Shows their sense of humor. And yes,they are very down to earth, humble men when you meet them. They interact with their fan base and appreciate us. They are even humbled by the response they get. It's always clear that they love what they do. Thank you for your review.

Rosalie you have a fabulous personality girl! Very expressive… I too was shook when I first heard them sing this. Knowing they had great voices didn’t mean great opera…damn damn damn…. It blew me away the first time…snd every reaction since makes me smile….that’s how I looked first time hearing…truly an epic version.

Love your breakdown. Glad you liked it.

Austin does have a musical theater background. He's from Georgia and most of the time I do hear the South in his voice. This is the second number where I don't hear it. (I wonder what Italian with a Georgia twang would actually sound like.) The other exception is Austin's "solo" rendition of Bring Him Home from Les Miz. Filmed in his house with his friend Sebastian Douyon on piano. Both of those songs give me chills every time I watch him perform them with total fascination.

Rosalie you have just scratched the surface of these guys. As you have noticed, they each have their own "work" outside of Home Free. With all of these talents brought together it is amazing. They really are as a band, brothers and bring in extended family when near to band members hometowns. Glad you have found them. May the ride be surprising and fun!

"Nessun Dorma" ( no one is sleeping ) --- one of the most frequently performed classical arias.........from Puccini's opera "Turandot"......all the great ( and near great ) operatic vocalists have sung this beautiful piece.....the late great Pavarotti approves....."Vincero" ( I will win ! )

The thing that's great about our guys is that you never know what they're going to do. They very well could have gone a comedic route and they'd have made it a killer version that way too. No matter what they do, the musicality never suffers. Another song from Austin's channel that I would recommend that showcases his musical theater training is Bring Him Home from Les Miserables. It's gorgeous! One of the 1st comment sections that I was reading on this video, there was a man from Italy and he commended them on their proper pronunciation in Italian. I thought that was a huge compliment! Thanks for another wonderful reaction.

Rob has a really magnificent tenor voice. Love them together- the passion and power. ❤

I’ve heard this countless times. Had a few days listening to other things and came back to check out reactions-I am STILL getting chills. I could listen to Rob sing like this all day, and Austin-lovely! I still hear a lot of country in his voice, but it’s NICE. Love this reaction!!

I'm seeing Home Free tonight in Portland. So excited and hope they do this.

The best gauge of just how talented these guys are is to indulge a good number of their expansive playlist to see how amazingly versatile each is. As you dive deeper down the HF rabbithole, you'll come to appreciate their range and diversity...individually and collectively....as they evolve and grow their impressive vocal abilities. Even those of us who are long-time fans continue to be surprised.

Part of the fun with Home Free is discovering what they will do next. All of their songs and videos are well done. They like you ,give their own spin to their covers. With the release of Rob and Austin singing opera, no one knew what to expect. Again it was a surprise! Not a surprise that these guys are talented, but gee these guys can sing opera too. Tim Foust gives a similar surprise when on a video he sings tenor, baritone, and bass (and all of them between) solo in one song . These guys are amazing.

I can’t stop listening to them singing this it’s beautiful and touching version. They impress me because singing Italian is more difficult than simply speaking Italian. They’re great together and have such feelings in their hearts while performing! TY for reviewing the art they are producing

Austin talked Rob into doing this, and they both were nervous about performing it, and how their fans would receive it. But -- what a wonderful version! Do listen to End of the Road - Rob is featured in that. He is also featured in The Butts Remix… lots of different styles in there.

These guys can sing anything!! Love them!

Wow, you are bubbly? What? Good to see.

Let us never underestimate what the members of Home Free can do. They are absolutely amazing time after time after time.

Some HF songs to add to your list: “End of the Road “, Rob lead, “I Can’t Outrun You “, Chance lead( the baritone/bass), and pure 5 part harmony, “Helplessly Hoping”, more 5 part harmony, “Do You Hear What I Hear “, an amazing arrangement by the percussionist Adam, and 2 for fun; “Champagne Taste(on a beer budget), Tim lead, and he also wrote it), and “Butts Remix”, a hilarious mashup. Actually, I’ll add 2 more…”Cover Me Up”, another gorgeous Chance lead, and “Take Me Home Country Roads”, a beautiful rendition of the John Denver song. Truly, there hasn’t been a bad song yet.

This is Austin doing a great job singing opera, and some opera singer doing a great job looking like Rob! These guys could sing the phone book and I bet it would go viral.

Austin's version of "bring him home" is a work of art.

I liked your comment about music being art. I'm a gray beard and have loved music all of my life. I try to encourage my young friends to not get stuck...in a star, in a decade, in a color, in a genre, etc. You can miss so much great music if you do.

You definitely need to listen to "End of the road" by Home Free. Their cover of the "Boys II Men" original is phenomenal! If you want to hear more of Rob Lundquist's talent, this is it!

Hi again. I love this performance. Great reaction from you. Can't wait for your Brothers In Arms reation. See you soon.

This is my first time on your channel…as another commenter said, we’ve been stalking reactors to see their disbelief at what they’re hearing. I thoroughly enjoyed your reaction. Home Free has an extensive catalog of fantastic covers and original music on KZfaq so I hope you enjoy the journey. I’ve subscribed.

Great reaction. These guys can literally sing EVERY kind of music. Rob really showed his range with this. They are both so amazing.

Great Reaction! I have never been a fan of opera except maybe some Andrea Bocelli & a few others. But I have always appreciated the talent it takes to sing opera. I was pretty impressed with Rob & Austin's version of Nessun Dorma. I have heard this famous song done by Pavarotti. I think I was more surprised by Rob's range & powerful delivery than even Austin's. Pretty good for a couple of country boys! Nice to see them dressed up in suits & looking classy.

I truly believe that Austin wanted the world to know of Rob’s incredible operatic voice, you can see Austin smile right as Rob starts singing ❤

I loved this! So it turns out that Rob studied opera in college and Austin is classically trained so I expected their performance to be as good as any Home Free song always is - but not this good! I thought it was beautiful, wonderful, and incredible!

Be still my heart! They are amazing! Love your reaction!

Actually, Rosalie, if you want goofy, check out their cover of 'Brother' from the band called needtobreathe. An absolutely beautiful song surrounded by magic and over acting (especially by these two here).

Mario Lanza my favorite Nessum Dorma.❤ BUT these guys gave me chilled.

Austin and Rob are amazing. They can sing anything!!!!❤️❤️

You know Tim can go up to the tenor register as well. Watch them do "May Day."

Thanks for the reaction, just like you, I was floored by this performance... Not that as a home fry I had any doubt about their vocal ability or reach because I know they're fantastic.. but Opera is just a completely different beast vocally. The recommendation of Brothers in Arms I support... But it is an incredibly emotional song, heavy stuff, so reading up a bit beforehand on the circumstances and the why Mark Knopfler of Dire Straits wrote it will be helpful. And you might as well listen to the original... there is pain and suffering in every riff and note coming out of Knopflers' guitar... It's more of a hymn than a song and Home Free do a fantastic job with it.

This brought tears to my eyes when I first watched it because they did wonderful job

Hi Rosalie one of the things Home Free is known for is like you they take a cover and put their own spin on it while staying true and respectful to the original artist . We fries have a saying give HF a phonebook and they will make it a nr.1 hit , they have 150 official music videos [ 151 dropping today ] and there´s not a bad song on that list , i love all their covers but their originals will always be at the top of my playlist here´s a couple of requests for their funny side please react to -- CHAMPAGNE TASTE ON A BEER BUDGET followed by FULL OF CHEER . Much love from a danish fry/new sub ❤❤❤

Watch them a few more times. You'll find some that will leave you laughing hysterically. You'll find some that will put you in tears. They are masters at evoking emotions. And you never know.

Austin and Rob did a absolutely stunning version of this!! Please continue listening to these angels!! Home fry forever!! Subscribed because of Home Free!!❤

You could say, "Take out the garbage", in Italian, and it will sound romantic! 😊 These guys do Everything! Check out Rob in Boyz 2 Men's "End of the Road". He does Gospel music, too. Each and every member is incredibly blessed and versatile. New sub here.

LOL...loved your REACTION! True Talent always shines no matter what! I hope Home Free artists shows the breath of fresh air and bring a smile to your face! peace!

Love me some Rob!!! His voice, his control is wonderful

There is no try, there is only do...and they did!

I like the flowers🥰

To me this is Austin's way of highlighting Rob's talent.

Can'tI am a huge Home Free fan and stumbled across your reaction and stopped to watch and was very glad I did. Thank you for your excitement, made my day, and I really appreciated the lyrics to the song. I will subscribe and wait for more and more Home Free reactions. I would reccomend "How Great Thou Art" and "Take Me Home Country Roads" and for a fun song " Can't Stop the Feeling "

Hi Rosalie - I wish I had your reactions to HomeFree`s "Helplessly Hoping" and "Mayday".

You thought just like I did at first. I thought I was going to be rickrolled and then this happened. Being in an “a cappella” band I knew they had good voices I just didn’t know they could project their voices like this, Rob especially. I heard he studied opera in college but that was years ago. It’s fun to hear. They sounded fantastic. They are all so talented. Try Helplessly Hoping, Brothers in Arms, In the Blood, What We Ain’t Got, I Can’t Outrun You to hear their amazing harmonies and some beautiful bass. Good reaction! 😍

Fantastic 🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥❤️

What's even more amazing is that Pucinni wrote Turandot in a Japanese setting. RW Peacock

Okay, what can't they sing genre wise???? Just WOW!!!!!!!! 🍧 icing with a cherry on top!!!!! Amazing doesn't even begin to define how I feel about these guys.................. Looking forward to seeing them in Salina, KS in December 2022!!!!!

Rob is the second tenor to bring a tear to my eye singing Nessun Dorma....Pavarotti is the first and always shall be the goat but Rob provides that base of breath support that sustains his vocal power throughout his range

If you love R and B you should check out their version of end of the road!

Another song that Rob shines in is a BoysTo Men's End Of The Road.

It is always off, but there is a perfect song from "Home Free" to listen to on the first day of winter. Actually, they have songs for every occasion, so my hope is that you will react to "Winter's Song". Adam does wonderful imitation of a winter wind.

Perhaps you would like to hear Home Free's cover of End of the Road to hear more R&B from Rob and Austin. Or Working for a Living to see some of their goofy humor. I loved your reaction.

Great job by Austin and Rob. I wonder if either of them has studied opera in college or was classically trained ;-)

What the what?? ❤

My favourite version of Nessun Dorma is the video that someone merged The Three Tenors and Il Volo , quite amusing that Placido Domingo was singing with the Three Tenors, then he was conducting the Il Volo part, it's worth having a look. But Austin and Rob has had more reactors gobsmacked than I can count, they did such a good job, I love it. Maybe you would like to watch Home Free and Peter Hollens singing Amazing Grace, Tim shows off some of his vocal range

I love Austin's version of Bring Him Home from Le Mis.

Rosalie, I have to add, I knew that you would be blown away. I was so excited to see that you reacted to this, I am obsessed with this video 😂

This is my first time on this chanel. And if you have a different opinion about a song, that's fine. That's why you're a reactor. Great reaction!!! This is insane. It is extremely good. Fantastic. Both are doing great. But Rob, I'm perplexed. His voice is just magical, so rich, so warm, so powerfull. Chills just ran through my body. It flows into my heart. For me he will be able to stand with the greatest of opera singers. It's not often that I listen to songs by opera singers 5 times and more in a row. But here it is. Of course I hope that both will always continue to do Home Free, but I wouldn't think it wrong that such "trips" are made more often. Opera, country, ballads, soul etc. I think anything is possible.. Listen from Home Free: "How Great Thou Art", "End of the Road", "Take me Home, Country Roads", "Mayday" , "Butts remix". etc. At Home Free there is no permanent lead singer. They try out which voice best fits the song.

Great reaction. I was stunned (even though I shouldn't have been) that this turned out as great as it did. You said at the end Brothers in Arms is next Home Free review. May I suggest that right after that while the vocals from that song are fresh in your mind, hop onto their cover of Mayday (whether you react or not-although I would prefer to see your reaction). I believe they will amaze you once again!

Rob is a trained opera singer.

Great reaction Rosalie! One reactor, although loving this, pointed out some of the flaws. I am glad I have. " untrained " ears because I can listen in ignorant bliss to some of the music not being aware of flaws. I'm not being critical of reactors who do point out flaws, especially if they are vocal coaches, because that is their job. I was blown away of their performance as well!

Miss Rosalie, Opera performers when learning their craft and throughout their careers have diction coaches for English, Italian, German, Russian or what ever language that the Opera was written in.

"Grand Ole' Opry" "New Great Country Opera" ! It is evolving as Country Music has many expressions with excellent voices. Permission to sing from your heart in all ways, allows many people to share their talented gifts !

If you want a different flavor, you should try Home Free's "End of the Road" by Boyz2Men. Totally different genre and yet they make it their own. 👍

The one that blew me away and showed their range of genres is "End of the Road" by Boyz II Men.

Loved your reaction! I just subscribed for more "HOME FREE"! You have a huge rabbit hole to travel down with them! I don't know why we were all so surprised 😲with their going from 🤠to 🧐! These guys are incredibly talented & there are no egos! They choose the best voice for each song to take the lead! Austin had to talk Rob into this & they were nervous about how their fans would react! You'll notice how Austin watches for Rob to lead! You need to watch another recent fun but beautiful video called "Brother". It's a Contemporary Christian song by "Need to Breathe" but of course, Home Free adds their "magic" (literally this time) to make it amazing!😊

Thank you for the translation. So passionate and beautiful!

These guys are ultra talented. Check out anything by Home Free and you won’t be disappointed.

Rosalie, I would like you to make a reaction video to Home Free's version of Helplessly hoping

I completely agree with you about differences in taste and music. I think you would also enjoy Marc Martel as he sings this song as Freddy Mercury and Luciano Pavarotti.

Rob has a music performance degree from the University of Minnesota in opera

I to love music, and I too, have a Bachelor degree in psychology. I was not able to get my Maters, do to health problems. I was 46 and just could not continue. Yes these boy's can sing anything.

Nessun Dorma is from Giacomo Puccini's opera, Turandot, first performed in 1926. At least, that's what the Wiki says. 😉

Loved your reaction! 😁👍 So... I've been a long time Home Free Fan...but I had nooo idea that Rob could sing Opera! Lol 😆 Bravo Rob and Austin! Bravo!! 🙌
