    My man, I gotta tell you…I’ve watched Hi Ren at least 100 times in the past week, and I’ve also watched at least 100 reaction videos to it. Out of all of them, even ones broken down by psychologists and music teachers, yours was the one to hit the nail on the head from the very beginning. Every part, especially towards the end when you said “this is a third person” The real Ren. I got chills all over again. I honestly believe this piece of art is the greatest bit of music since the turn of the millennium. Ren is highly in tune with himself and a pretty evolved human in that manner. I also believe you are as well. Great breakdown. Keep up the good work.

      OK I'm not alone, I also have been running the gauntlet of reactions. I want someone to also feel this as deeply as I do so it's nice to see that. I gotta give it some time and come back to the reactions though because it's getting muttled and this song doesn't deserve that, it's too masterful for it to loose effect.... Even though I still get goosebumps and tear up I don't wanna lose that hahaha😂

      I suffer with depression and I've been to the darkest place in my soyl. Learning to accept and embrace your demons, live with them and overpower them is how you live life. I'm grateful for every day I wake. Your reaction is on point, well done. Love life people, hard or not! ❤

      I disagree. It's 2 people. Good vs evil.
      Evil is easy. Choose good, almost always the harder path. It is more rewarding, even if you are the only one who witnesses it.

    This man is trying to save my life and he doesn’t even know it. I’ve never heard someone describe life and the human condition the way he did. I spend far too much time worrying about shit I can’t control or worrying about shit that hasn’t even happened yet but I need to lean to relax and to soften if I plan to stand on my feet. And damn that “Loosen the noose on the rope” line fucking choked me up. I have to believe that as long as I keep fighting, I will be ok

      My sister hung herself right before this video came out. I always think of her when I hear that part “loosen the noose on the rope.” And it makes me tear up a lil bit from time to time, I just wish she could’ve heard this before she did it. She had been through a lot tho, more than anyone person ever should, and so have I, our family had it hard in a very short amount of time, and she had it the worst out of us all. Now, I’m the only one of all my parents children left, they all died well before their time, and I feel so lonely sometimes, but this song makes me feel a little bit better bc I also have auto immunity and schizophrenia (or so I’ve been told, idk if I believe it… 🤷🏼‍♀️) and a few other debilitating diseases at a young age and the medical community has most certainly let me down also, just like Ren….. so much within this song that I can relate to, and that’s what makes me feel a little bit better, the fact that there’s someone else going through similar things and can understand what I’m going through too.

    What you said about the battle between good and evil, is actually exactly what Ren wrote in a poem and performed in a live gig somewhere in Brighton... You can find it on TH-cam too....
    Here's a transcription of that poem.
    There's this lie that we have either Yin or Yang.
    We are neither, and we are both.
    We are Apollo, and we are Dionysus.
    We are Jesus, and we are Judas.
    We are the healing hands of Mother Theresa, and we are the poisonous tongue of Adolf Hitler.
    We do not solely walk a path of good, nor do we walk tread a path of evil.
    We simply walk.
    And if we choose to rain down judgement based on some self-inflated moral code,
    We forget that we are but a few decisions or a few mistakes away from becoming demons,
    Or we're a few good deeds away from becoming angels.
    Our actions cannot be placed into black and white boxes,
    For there is beauty within destruction,
    And there is ugliness within perfection.
    -Ren-

    You're the first reactor I've seen that has noticed there's 3 characters in there, huge props for this reaction.
    My view is that the first two characters are the shoulder demon and the actual Ren having a battle of wills. The third character that comes in after the "News Flash" is the eternal Hope but is channeled through Ren.
    I've never before heard a song as powerful and deep as this. It gives me goosebumps every time.

      I understood it a little differently. There's Ren's two sides, that's two. Then there's the devil, and then there's God, both of whom speak through him. That's how I understood it. The human soul is a battleground between those two eternal forces. It's brilliantly done.

If it was a battle between the devil and god going on through him it'd cheapen the message hes trying to send. Ren has gone through his life dealing with nonstop sickness and psychosis which literally manifested in hearing another voice in his head and this is him portraying that as hes on his road to recovery

      There are 4, at first its Rens depression vs Ren, as Ren gets closer to overcoming his depression, the real enemy, afraid he is about to lose, shows himself as the spirit of Satan, then the last verse is in the spirit of Christ, as it speaks of returning from the east to set the beast on the ocean floor. Christ is hope, among other titles.

    Also... he literally visualized his lyrics. Tiny light in the back casting a darker shadow in front of the brightest light showing lightest shadow. Him being sickly/stiff, then loosening up. Standing (growing) & fluidly moving about in full expression while his feet stay planted. ((iMo))

Last thing, when you said I don’t know what I did to deserve this but “Thank You”. Bro that is one of the most AMAZING BEAUTIFUL things someone could ever say about someone or their art.

    Seeing how #HiREN is getting the much needed and deserved attention, makes me happy. Ren settled himself under my skin and no matter how many times I hear or see his music, it get‘s to me on such a deep level, no other Artist is capable of in that magnitude. Liked your reaction, subbed as a consequence. Check out the ‚Tales Trilogy (Jenny, Screech, Violet)‘ and also Money Game, his work with Sam Tompkins and the Band the Big Push. Am sure that a Man of taste such as yourself will appreciate the work REN has been putting out for years. The man is in another Level entirely. Much Love.

    "What in the blue alien from 5th element is going on?" I just woke up the house busting up laughing, you're hilarious Ray. I actually had a dream about you watching this and it's 5am here I just got up and here it is. Thank you for making me smile I needed it today ❤️ to you and the family ❤️

    When considering suicide and attempt it but something stops you … HOPE, it’s still within you and that’s why you don’t go through with it. This is a powerful song and so beautifully and accurately describes the inner demons we all possess to one degree or another. Great reaction! Wow!!

    I've watched many reactions cause this song is very interesting to the least, and you had some very strong points that I have not thought of or heard from others. interesting how you dissected what you saw and heard. ..Bravo... on your thoughts...

    How. How have I not found your channel until fucking NOW?!?!?!!
    I’ve been on the Ren rollercoaster since December when Hi Ren first dropped and my brother sent it to me like “you have to check this out”. Even then I wished I had been onto Ren since his first ever public performance ya know?
    But to now find your channel - like most of a year after it all started (for me), it’s like I’ve missed out on your reactions this whole time and what they add to the Ren experience.
    I watched your Down on the Beat reaction before this, my first time seeing anything of yours, and I’ve been watching and searching for Ren reactors for months. It’s been my main YT viewing over anything else, and I haven’t found you til now.
    How can the algorithm have fucked me so badly? 😂
    Anyhow, after watching your Down on the Beat reaction I immediately subbed, and now only partway through your Hi Ren reaction I am so stoked to have your whole Ren playlist to binge through (and then your other content too, I just gotta feed the Ren-addiction beast first haha).
    I love that you have already added so much perspective to this song that I hadn’t heard from anyone else’s viewpoint before, and I thought I’d run out of fresh takes for sure.
    You’ve got a solid fan outta me now right out of the gate, just like Ren had outta you from your first go. ⭐️

    I see the progress of the story as Ren talking with the darkness inside him, and then there's that rough peice where the darkness shows that he's not just inside Ren he's been in everyone from the dawn of time.
    And then you get the counter argument from Hope.
    Absolute art!

    Your reaction was on point with mine. I've watched about 10 reactions of this, and everyone loved it. But no one saw the beauty I saw in it, but you. This kid is a genius. Some of the best songs. Come from the best stories we live through ourselves. He just tells his story so sublimely. He needs a record deal, without being tainted by the underbelly of Hollywood.

    Of all the reaction videos I've watched in the past three days since I first saw Hi Ren the first time myself( and I have watched *many*) I absolutely love the ones where they, like you, know what's going on right away. While Ren's story is his own I think there are so many of us who struggle with the darkness and our own inner monologue telling us we are worthless, or when ever we show a stint of light and hope tell us we're getting too full of ourselves. Great reaction, man. Great insight and great emotional awareness.

  • @DyvmSlorm
    @DyvmSlorm ปีที่แล้ว +15

    There are a bunch of great songs from Ren and friends but I'd suggest the trilogy for another AMAZING story. The Tale of Jenny and Screech (full) is what it's called. It's actually three songs but in one 13 minute video in order. You'll love him more.
    I would say, make the popcorn before that video since for a 13 minute video it tells the story that feels like three seasons of your favorite (dark) Netflix show.
    PS I so hope Ren sees this. I believe he will love your reaction and he checks out (it seems) 90% of the reactions. He does have a new video coming out tomorrow (1CST and has said he will be in the comments starting around 12:30 CST). However, you still should check out the trilogy .

    I first watched Hi 5 days ago and felt so many different levels of blown away that I’ve watched about 20 reaction videos since then to see if I was just crazy in feeling so much. Lots of then mentioned Ren’s talent and vulnerability and creativity are tops, and a few stated thank you to Ren because they knew his video was helping people, but you are the first reactor to fully understand what Ren was saying and to have such a powerful I love you Ren reaction. That is exactly how I felt. So much truth and honestly and pain, still makes me cry when I see it and I’m so happy that it’s blowing up so hard. Peace and thank you

I absolutely love how you immediately recognized what Ren was trying to accomplish and how unique and special this was. It only took you a fraction of the video / performance for you to become one of Ren’s biggest fans ❤ You have become one of my favorites!

    I have watched more reactions to Ren & this song than I can count. You, are the first one to nail it on the name & by his words. So many think he has split personality, or it's demons, or other things. You got it. Thank you. I'm living with, successfully, I hope, severe depression & have dealt with the evil shit side of my broken brain for 52 years. "Hi Ren" shows this struggle better than anything I've ever seen. Again, thank you.

    I had the same ABSOLUTELY WOW reaction you did when I discovered him via Justin Hawkins Rides Again reaction channel a week ago, and two things: 1) Reading the comments on Ren's work and on reaction vids to it is SOUL-NOURISHING, HEART-LIFTING; 2) Ren's connecting people TO Reaction vids and causing us to find each other. That's important stuff. Anyway, brother, keep up the good work, I've subscribed---not only did you offer some wisdom, there were some great laughs and moments where I shared joy and awe with you.
