Good afternoon beautiful people and especially our cherished @elizabitty213! Your passion has been obvious and your love and respect for greatness is classic and with some of the best reactors! We love love love it! I CAN NIT WAIT FOR YOU TO DO “The Hunger” and “Losing it.” Two of my favorites and why Ren is being out in the map as a top rapper in the entire world. I’ll be back daily waiting!!! Thank you in advance as I am already loving the ones you did. Your “Hi Ren” reaction was also one of the best that have been done and I’ve watched hundreds! Keep rocking it and doing you. Be true to yourself as it appears obvious you are exactly where you were meant to be! 💜
@@ScottyRosencrance-dq4pj omgosh thank you so much for all the love and support and encouraging words!! I love doing this and have loved getting to know you all! Hopefully sometime in the future soon I will start doing live’s so I can chat with you all in real time! Gotta figure that all out first though so bare with me lol
I believe Losing It is currently winning the poll I put so that should be the next one! I’m gonna try my best but I might be dropping another one tomorrow! 🙏🏻💕😃
@elizabitty213 like I said we are waiting so make the time ⏲️ 😌 🤪 😏 😍 🤣 ❤🎉
He is almost certainly referring to his friend Joe, who jumped from the Menai Straits brigde. Joe's body was never found. Ren has said that was alerted by a phone call from a friend that Joe was threatening to jump. He ran to the bridge but got there too late.
omgosh!! i am so sorry to hear that wow. thats just terrible and the fact that Ren tried to save him and couldn't, could possibly be a huge weight on his shoulders. i hope not because we all try to hold our loved ones close and we try to let them know we are there for them but sometimes that person is dealing with so much that they cannot believe or even hear your words of support and encouragement, as he said in this song, "my sad eyes blind me" 😢
@@elizabitty213your words are always so wise and brilliant
Thank you for doing you!
@@ScottyRosencrance-dq4pj oh wow thank you so much 🙏🏻🥹
@@elizabitty213well as you can imagine it does weigh heavy on him still to this day. He has written several songs and tilted an album (Freckled Angels) in memory of Joe. He showed Joe’s parents the video of For Joe before he released it on TH-cam.
You should definitely watch Suic!de and For Joe.
thank you for such an empathetic reaction, i relate to this song so much, i have totally forgotten how to be me. in the last few years my beautiful daughter Aleisha passed away at 17, i miss her every second of the day (our last pic together is my profile ) my husband and my supposed best friend of over 30 years had an affair with his brothers wife and imploded our families. i now live alone with my 2 furry best friends, i have a degenerative disease which has took my mobility and leaves me in chronic pain, tbh the list goes on, but finding Ren and the renegades has truly helped me to feel less alone xxx
Hugs 🫂
Hello there my gosh I am so very sorry to hear all that may your beautiful daughter rest in heaven 🙏🏻💕
To your ex husband, may he reap what he sows, God will take care of him!
And to you doll, thank you so very much for sharing something so important and private with me and the family here, sending love and hugs to you! Our furry babies are the best! I miss mine so much she was my little bunny bear a chihuahua with bunny ears sticking straight up in the air and she used to climb on my hip and sit there lol loved her! They are the best! Give them a cuddle and kiss for me 💕🥹
Hello again Mrs 213! Another awesome reaction. As you have read 60 times before me, this song was about the pain of losing someone to suicide, with the very last verse being for Joe Hughes, Rens best friend, as are the songs Suicide, For Joe, and Freckled Angels (the song and the entire album of the same name, because Joe was covered with freckles, and you'll actually hear Ren break down when he performs that song). They're all amazing, but yes, they will tear your guts out. Also, if you want to see how amazing Ren is on piano, his song Mackay, is a piano instrumental dedicated to his friend with that name. Finally, if you want to laugh instead of cry for awhile, and see how talented Ren is, across all genres, check out Love Music 1-4(don't let the titles fool you, they are NOT romantic songs, lol). You really can't go wrong with Ren, just wanted to hear you laugh awhile dear. Keep it up, you're awesome, you RENegade!
Thank you love!! 💕 I will for sure check out all of those songs! Getting ready for late tonight I believe he is dropping at 12am EST! So I’m gonna try and keep my old butt awake to do it lol 😆
Several reactors have said “I am not okay” after Ren finished that last hit. It gets me every time. About a month after For Joe released I lost a friend to a self inflicted overdose of prescription medication. He was going through a divorce and could not beat his demons. He survived a hellish tour in Iraq and 17 years on the local police force.
Definitely start going through Chinchilla's catalog. Start with 1:5 (live version). She's amazing
It is an unexplainable musical intimacy & to love them in their darkest gives me a splinter of hope.
Well said!! Such beauty and talent exude from them equally and magically! 🙏🏻💕 thank you for watching with me!
That part about not feeling safe in these halls, there are bruises on the walls... Think about Ren laying in a bed at hospital with no ease of suffering in sight.
Hi from England 🏴 😊. God bless you elizabitty. God does work in mysterious ways and we don't always understand it 🙏 ✨️ ❤
hello there!! thank you for dropping in and hanging out with me! Amen God does work in mysterious ways. its hard to understand his whole purpose for us and why we must endure such pain and strife, but i feel deeply that it is for a reason. it prepares us for whats to come in the future so we can overcome more and more as we grow. its such a complex thought process. sending love your way and may God bless you 🙏
@elizabitty213 as it says in the book , he will baffle the intellect of men. Easy to do with me, unfortunately 😕. However, if I can read 📚 I can learn. Love the reaction and the channel. Good luck with it all. I'm sure it's all good 👍
The last words are about his friend Joe Hughes, who sadly committed suicide in 2010. Listen to "Suicide" and then "For Joe". Those are another two great pieces of music. Thanks for your open and honest reactions. I've already subscribed to you. Best regards from Austria
I heard about this from others in the chat. That is so unbelievably sad and tragic and just I don’t have the words to say! I pray that Ren and anyone close to Joe gets the peace they need and Joe rests in heaven 🙏🏻 hello over there in Austria! WOW 🤩 thank you for joining the family! Just dropped two more from Ren hope you enjoy!
Thank you 🙏❤ Elizabitty ❤ for your 🎸🧑🎤🧑🎤🌉 Ren X Chinchilla - How To Be Me (live) reaction! #ren #howtobeme #chinchilla #live
@@sorenm.lairdsorries7547 heyyy there! Thank you so much! This was awesome! 💕
Love hearing them singing together!!
same!! i had chills almost the entire song!
Big hugs ❤
big hugs back at you thank you!! 😍💗
"I forgot how to be me" ... wow, I'm sure every human on earth can relate to those words at some time in their life. They had me in tears too when I first heard this song ❤🩹. As you say, such a powerhouse duet. As always, thanks for your beautiful reaction 🙏🤗
This such a treasure. Truly enjoyed your thoughtful reaction...and sincerely appreciate your efforts!! I see the Renegades are adding in the relevant details regarding this track...such a good team. ...And ^_^....don't get me started on Chinchilla....I won't stop raving for weeks HA!..(I recommend All of her tracks btw) ... I think you are on the right path my friend! Peace and Love Forever!!!!
thank you so much!! i really appreciate that! i have been having such an amazing time with all of you and really love that i am so blessed to be able to experience this whole universe of Ren with all of you guys! Chinchilla's voice is so incredible! her range and the tone and the little raspy she adds here and there and how she controls her power, cause i can hear she has it rumbling under there lol i just love her already! sending peace and lots of love and hugs back at you!
Ok,,, CHILDREN OF THE MOON, PATIENCE, CASTLES MADE OF SAND!!!!!! DO THEM BEFORE THEY GET MISSED EVEN MORE❤❤❤❤❤😂😂😂😂😂🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉
The "Joe Trilogy" is Freckled Angels (about 10 years old), Suicide and For Joe. The third one calls back the first two.
Awww I will for sure do those!! 🙏🏻💕 thank you so much for hanging out with me
"Before they get started...". They'd already started. A song is about more than just lyrics. Even when the lyrics are world-class, as here. :)
Ok, im to the part that you said chinchilla takes it....... you also gotta get to thier busking together. I think there are 2..... cant remember if the one is much better than the other. 1 stands out in my mind. Maybe another renegade can help. 😂😂😂😂😂 but one where it is REALLY CHINCHILLA SHINING MOMENT. AND IT WAS HER 1ST TIME BUSKING 😮😮😮😮😮😮😮🎉🎉🎉🎉
Idont know why i keep hollering,,, i get excited about the reneverce
Entire Chinchilla concert at Pinkpop has been rekeased th-cam.com/video/qeaHH5IURoY/w-d-xo.html
I do not know if any song from this performance will be released individually. Also, i don't know if you are already aware but Ren's first solo concert in 4 years is coming later this month during the Secret Garden Party Festival in the UK July 25-28. Do not know yet what day Ren performs.
Ren and Chinchilla (Daisy Bertenshaw) wrote and released the studio version of "How to Be Me" in 2019. This live version was recorded in fall 2021 in Brighton, on the roof of Seaside Studio. It was around the time that they worked together on the studio and live versions of "Chalk Outlines" and went out busking together on Bond Street in Brighton.
For Ren, "How to Be Me" is clearly about how he felt after his friend, Joe Hughes, took his own life. Here's the story, in brief. In the early hours of 28 December 2010, Ren got a call that Joe was on the Menai Suspension Bridge (between Anglesey Island and mainland Wales). Joe was depressed and talking about jumping. Ren raced there, but he was too late. Family, friends, and RNLI volunteers searched for a week, but Joe's body was never found. Ren wrote the song "Freckled Angels" in honour of Joe. He released the first version on TH-cam in June 2011, on what would have been Joe's 20th birthday.
Thanks!
Thank you so much love!! 💞😭
❤
💞 Heyyy there!
Love this one!
this was so incredible!! i dont think i have enough words to say how listening to this beautiful song made me feel! they work so well together and i understand now why he calls her his "musical sister" i think i got that right lol thank you for watching and hanging out with me! 💞
KEEP GOING WITH YOUR REN REACTIONS! Loving them! #RENegades
Absolutely I will!! I have been loving this! 💕😃
He is talking about his friend Joe who committed suicide. He has other tracks that are related (e.g. For Joe and Suicide). But be prepared -they are truly heart-rending.
wow i was just reading another comment about this that is so terribly tragic! i just want to give Ren a big hug sometimes when i think of all he has been through. thank you for the support and for the request i will add it to my list! 🙏
Loved your reaction by the way you are amazing and I appreciate you thank you.
Please do One dance/Drunk in love busking session with the 2 of them. So, so good.
Thanks Elizabeth
Absolutely!! You’re welcome and thank you for the support! 💕
Many think that, except for the end, this song is from Joe's perspective.
🙏🏻 just wow! Thank you so much for watching with me. This was so beautifully executed and must have been so hard to perform with all that sadness and pain inside for their friend 🙏🏻
Girrrrrrrrl!!!! Handing you a tissue!!🤣 Love the advice at the end.❤
Hahahahaha I know right?!! My gosh these types of songs talking about these topics, get me every time! Their voices blended and separately, along with the passion they inject, just tops it off! 💕🥹
Do his song "Suicide" next, before you do "For Joe", the second is a reprise of the first.
Will do! Thank you so much for the support! 💕
His best friend Joe you should listen to freckled angels, Su!s!de and for joe
Yay❤❤❤😂🎉 Always love your content ❤❤❤🎉😊
Try an old one - when he was in a dark place - Crutch
Oh yes I will check that out! Thank you 🙏🏻 💕
Brace yourself for Freckled Angels, Suic!de and For Joe. All linked. The grief is so raw but the love for his friend shines through.
wow yes i will for sure be checking all three out!! 🙏 thank you for the request!
@@elizabitty213 thank you and would recommend reading Ren’s pinned messages on each track if you find one. Explains the story.
You just can't wait to make her cry again 😂😢😢😢😊😊😊❤❤❤😢🎉🎉🎉 just joking around, GREAT SUGGESTIONS 👍 👌 👏 😀
@@badwolf1587 you’re right I’m so bad
@pointlesslab4179 our little guilty pleasures 🙏 ☺️ 😊 🤗 😬 🤪 plus I hate when I'm all in suspense aaaaand they DONT GET THE END OF VIOLET UNTIL LATER! OR SCRW UP THE ORDER. sorry started hollering again 🤣 😂
Pause pause pause pause pause pause pause... On a beautifulsong like this?
r u a preschool teacher???
No im not I work in the medical industry actually in customer service 🤓
i think they actually recorded this on the bridge.
omgosh no wayyyy!! did they both him as well?
@@elizabitty213 I don't know if they both knew him and as far as recording on the bridge its here-say, only what I have read in the comments. You may want to take a look at one of his more mainstream style songs for a break like " Ren - Back on 74 / Message In A Bottle (Live retake)". Back on 74 is a Jungle (as in Jungle the group) song/dance routine, and of course "Message In A Bottle" is from The Police (as in not the Old Bill, Fuzz, Rozzers or Scuffers)as they say in the UK but the group.
It's not the same bridge, but o don't think that takes away from the power of this song ❤
No, its not on the or a bridge. Its on a rooftop from a soundstudio in brighton.
This songs really punched me in the gut for a few days after hearing it, and was playing it on repeat for weeks ❤
I see a few ppl mentioned the 3 joe songs ❤️🩹. He also has a piano instrumental for another friend he lost, titled Mackay.
Absolutely!! I had this song stuck in my head for days after this and even cried again lol what an incredible tribute 🙏🏻
I have that song on my list and looking forward to seeing him play the piano!
@@elizabitty213 😊❤️
