merci Mr le Coach REN est devenu mon artiste préféré il est incroyable excellent quelle magnifique performance voix il peu tout se permettre polyvalent j'adore Mikky Ekko je suis sur qu'il pourrait facilement faire une reprise de stay merci beaucoup à vous Ren vous suis reconnaissant bonj de, France 👍🙏👏😱🎸🎼🎵🎶🇫🇷
Just the fact that ren thanked you for your singing tutorial videos which helped him hone his skills, is amazing. I bet you feel so proud and excited about thet, as you should 😊💜💜
What distinguishes a good artist from a great artist is one who is constantly learning, improving, developing their craft. Add to that REN’s innate musical talent and ability and 🤯! And if that isn’t enough…REN is a humble and gracious human being who saves his naughty for his bars;) Could I love him any more?! I’ll let you know tomorrow, NOT. OF COURSE I CAN AND I WILL! Once again, thank you Chris ❤
Its always been said that STING and the POLICE could not be copied due to their uniqueness! Well I think if anyone could do it, Ren could if he so choses. Thanks Chris another insightful reaction, see you on your next one. ❤from D in the UK 🇬🇧
Yeah, I agree. And it's tough to pin down exactly why but it's probably down to the versatility and variety mixed with his genuine love for all of it. And his humour. He's having fun and it's clear for us to see. It never looks like a chore for him.
To put it simply...Ren is a Bruce Lee of music.He managed to put different styles of music into what works best for him.Naturaly.Less fortunate humans will spend countless hours analysing it...
Ren makes it all seem so effortless, but anyone who has ventured even a little way into the Ren rabbit hole, knows how much he's worked to perfect his craft. He is incredible and never ceases to amaze and delight me! Great reaction and analysis of how he's doing this vocal wizardry!
Ren famously studied many past masters, so this is a lot of Smokey Robinson who's vocals are close to Ren. The unmistakable Motown influence on the piece compliments it so well. We get a great sample of Stings classic, message. I'm also impressed with his willingness to shine on those girls for face time.
I’m constantly impressed by how freely Ren gives credit where it’s due. He knows those women tied this song together so well they deserve the camera time.
YES! Ren is multi-talented and could easily be a great actor. He's not just musically creative out the wazoo, he's incredibly insightful & astute. A natural. Always enjoy your video's as well.
I love your comment about true attentiveness from Ren. I am a people watcher, very sensitive to micro-expressions in human faces (actually animals too, which is why cats will always become my bestie, I understand them because I understand their tiniest moves and respond with respect). This has its downside by the way, in my marriage for example. The poor lady can't have a moment of privacy or confusion without me seeing it, though I have worked on not responding to it. Anyway, everyone can see Ren is very expressive in his facial expressions, but in this video, he is both leading and following. He used his eyes to urge the bassist during their dueling solos. He intently watches the lady singers when they are leading and he is matching them. He once signals to the camera person, I believe, that a switch is coming. He has some moments where his eyes are gentle, slow blink style to project relaxation. What I am saying is for all of his musical gifts he has a natural charisma that makes him a leader. Not an aggressive, boss style leader, rather, he is a Robert Greenleaf style leader, a servant leader. He serves others when he leads, strives to meet their needs and help them actualize. That is why his collaborations are absolutely top notch. And my guess is he honed his musical leadership during all of those years busking. He had to attend to the other members, and if solo (and in group), attend to the crowd. A literal random group of people. But he is sensitive to human expression, that is plain to see.
Part of what makes this video fascinating is REN’s shifting balance, like a dance really, between the times when you can see him focusing intensely on his own vocals, and the times when he’s watching the ladies so closely, to make sure that the timing and vocal blending is immaculate. And I haven’t seen the camera work mentioned enough in discussions of this video. Sam accomplishes the same kind of thing visually, with almost flawlessly accurate focus choices as it lingers on the different performers, even when it necessitates utilizing some creative angles.
Yes! You see that in The Big Push busking sessions. I noticed that each rendition of the same song or mashup (like I Shot the Sheriff) has a different sound, feel, tempo or arrangement. A big reason for that, I think, is because Ren is a natural conductor who likes to switch things up and almost "plays the band" like an instrument. All musicians' eyes are on him most of the time. In Money Game 3, when he's sitting before the string quartet, he not only counts out the tempo with his fingers or the waving of the gun, but his continued hand and head gestures (like reaching into the cookie jar repeatedly) set the tempo for the quartet to follow--exactly like a conductor. Cool to watch!
This was a wonderful reaction to one amazing performance. Loved your excitement with everything he was doing with his voice. It all was just PERFECT. Thank you. ❤🤗❤
This entire set is ear candy and now this vocal analysis sprinkles magic dust all over. Everyone has been hoping and waiting for the Chris Liepe breakdown!
Wonderful vocal performance from Ren and also beautiful backup vocals from the fabulous ladies. Top Tier live performance. Loved it. Cant wait to see what's next with the NAS retake next week
There's a BTS video on Ren's Patreon that makes this video even more impressive. From the moment this mash-up was conceived, it was arranged (the original Back on 74 was an EDM song), the rap written, backing singers found, rehearsed, a venue arranged and the video recorded in just 10 days.
I lost my ability to sing since my throat got radiation therapy and i miss it dearly but i truly enjoy watching your videos and then with Ren is like the cherry on top ♥
I love this retake….so many vocal styles and the back and forth with Sylvia and Scarlett ….goosebumps. The best part about this, for me, is the pure enjoyment on Ren’s face ….he is loving working with other great artists. Knew you’d love this one. Thanks Chris.
Ok my bad. I had originally said what’s so special about this performance in your other video. I didn’t realize not only did he learn from you but how he goes through different styles in one song and the transitions between notes.
So glad you reacted to this one. It is so fun and creative and well, just amazing. I have been eagerly waiting for your take on it. I now realize I had not yet subscribed, so I fixed that problem. I really enjoyed watching your joy in each twist and turn variant he (and the backup gals) used. Love your reactions!
It's testament to the way he drives into music and draws the best out of the people he collaborates with that l they pulled this together from the initial idea for the cover to writing the rap, composing the blend, and filming the video in 10 days!
I love the way you get excited about how people approach certain notes. Not just Ren . It's easy for you to get excited about him. Lol. He learned some of it from you!!! I'm glad to be able to witness these moments in music history! 🎉❤
That mix of his head voice----I first thought of it as a mix of Portugal. The Man and Sting. I also thought he brought out a lot of the same sounds of Sting at the end of Hi Ren! However, I had been listening to a lot of Portugal. The Man earlier in the day before listening to this and was stunned at the similarities. I love all three singers, but Ren has a knack for making his voice adapt to the sound he wants, like Bob Marley on his cover of I Shot the Sheriff. He has so much breath control and just plain control over his voice.
I was so stoked when Ren first commented on one of your Ren vocal analyses. And when you posted the Ren interview, I resorted to a piercing head-voice "screech" of joy. Whenever Ren posts a new song, you're always one of the first channels I turn to. Thanks again for another great reaction!
My vocals have the ship dead in the water despite the excellent crew. I’ve been focusing on learning all the other instruments. Time to work on that. I’ll go back through your channel. I have to find my voice.
After many listens to this I was looking for your react and it makes me more focused on the vocal technicalities. One thing that I did not notice until today was towards the end of "Message," that backup singers are switching up the "Let it go" lines. The first time it is more of a "forte" "Let it go," then they switch to more of a mezza-piano "Let it go" with the soprano voice staying up there, but the second voice dropping while they both go breathier. They alternate this. Ah, the details you make me listen to!
I always love watching and listening to your analysis. It opens my ears to hear those intricacies and appreciate how an artist makes their voice an instrument to play with. I'm learning so much to be more playful and experimental with my own practice. It opens up so many more opportunities and reignites that passion and fun with music.
You are one badass coach and reactionary! I don’t know how I forgot about you. I do know. I WATCH WAY TO MANY REACTION VIDEOS! But I’m back. I got reminded about your brilliance. I don’t know how successful you are financially, but your future is brighter than you can even imagine. BTW, your voice is marvelous. Borderline impeccable. Yeah, impeccable. Thank you for such a. Great REN reaction. I love this man just like millions. Have jumped in the rabbit hole 8 months ago and I’m still going deep. I don’t know is that will ever change. I really hope not and believe it will never change. I can’t hear enough reactions. We get to share with you, your first emotions that you get to feel every time you hear something new. Just, good job. And knowing that you played a major part in Rens development. Thag changes everything. I can’t wait to watch the rest of your ren reactions. If ten respects you, holy shit, we are in awe You’ve got this my fellow ReNegade! We’ve got this. We are all Human kind sir. We’ve got this and you are leading the charge 😊
I'm a bit late to the party, sorry! enjoyed this so much. Your thoughts about approaching a song in terms of weights and measures as opposed to technicalities is perfect ❤
Thank you so much. I thought you would like this one, chris. It's a great analysis of a great artist from the one and only Mr Liepe. Thank you once again. 😊
Thanks Chris! I don't normally watch reaction videos but after finding the Fred Again Ren one fascinating, I was waiting with baited breath for this one! ❤
So impressed with this song and your reaction. I feel like you could give this reaction to a university music course and the students would be hanging on your every word. Ren’s music invites discussion, analysis and praise. Thank you Chris!
Thank you Chris, super breakdown and yes, Ren is very playful with this. I love how he hints at the Police song to come, gently offering up the MIAB riff during the Jungle piece. Did you notice the switch of mics, I presume they had different set ups for the singing and rap so allowing a seamless transition. The backing singers make this extra special and could the bassist look any cooler?
@@samanthazwickel IMO he did because his voice when singing had a rounder almost echo like set up, whereby the rap segment it was more flatter sounding. Sam seems to do one of his pan away shots to make it seamless. I could be wrong though.
@@patcow9999, that's just mixing, and he is a master at it. The thought that it was multiple mics has been in comments here and there, along with a behind-the-scenes showing it was the same mic. (That said, I haven't been able to locate the specific behind-the-scenes.) [eta, but maybe I'm wrong, too.]
Like the others, I’ve been really looking forward to your reaction to this. 😊 I thought that Ren’s voice sounded even better than before - so thank you for helping him to improve. 💛
Hey Chris, I've been following you for about a year now and I love your reactions and analysis on songs. I think you need to recommend this one to The Charismatic Voice!
I genuinely think that the head voice/chest voice switching with less air AND rasp might come as mine did similarly, by practicing trying to reach STINGs singing voice when yours doesnt initially do it. I used to try to get my voice to replicate stings ability and and the effect it had was creating a way for my voice to do it, much like i imagine happened here 🤷♂️
Imagine trying to practice Roxanne when you can reach the note in falsetto but cant work out the air pressures needed for the power to make it sound right as you sing along.
Excellent analysis Chris (as always). There are lots of great singers, but I always come back to Peter Gabriel, Sting, Jon Anderson, Phil Collins and Ren as my all time favorites (for male vocalists). There's just another level of connection and humanity I get from them.
Oh I knew you would love this one! And it’s so sweet how excited you are about having played a big part in Ren developing his singing ❤ This was another brilliant ReNtake. Just Ren doing Ren things. Crazy runs and harmonies, filthy bars to remind us that he is also still a cheeky boi, and that voice that’s perfect for Sting/The Police songs. Ren has music in his soul and pours so much soul into everything he does. We’re just lucky to witness it 🐰🕳️

The ladies aka "background singers" deserve more praise. Well deserve more.
They have great voices, but one of them had nails that almost killed me through the screen.
MOST DEFINITELY 😊 THEY'RE GREAT & IM GLAD YOU MADE SUCH A COMMENT BECAUSE THEY WERE SO COMPLIMENTARY ×××× ×××× ×××× ××××

Yup. I was just going to say that the 74 section had mad Smokey Robinson vibes. Ren can do just about anything, it seems, and exceptionally well.
I’m constantly impressed by how freely Ren gives credit where it’s due. He knows those women tied this song together so well they deserve the camera time.
Every one of rens songs leaves you wanting more both theatrically and musically.
YES! Ren is multi-talented and could easily be a great actor. He's not just musically creative out the wazoo, he's incredibly insightful & astute. A natural. Always enjoy your video's as well.

This was a wonderful reaction to one amazing performance.
Loved your excitement with everything he was doing with his voice.

For this performance, Ren almost exclusively watches the other singers while he sings. He is feeding off of them and is loving every second of it.

Ahhh Chris the video reaction I was waiting for… thank you really enjoyed it… 🎶🫶🏻🎶
I am so glad you did a reaction to this video. I always look forward to your analysis. Ren is a remarkable artist.
i've been waiting for this reaction since Ren released the mashup. Great stuff!
Thank you Chris, super breakdown and yes, Ren is very playful with this. I love how he hints at the Police song to come, gently offering up the MIAB riff during the Jungle piece. Did you notice the switch of mics, I presume they had different set ups for the singing and rap so allowing a seamless transition. The backing singers make this extra special and could the bassist look any cooler?
He didn't switch, he just walked it over and back up.
@@samanthazwickel IMO he did because his voice when singing had a rounder almost echo like set up, whereby the rap segment it was more flatter sounding. Sam seems to do one of his pan away shots to make it seamless. I could be wrong though.

Was waiting for this one!
Yep. That’s what I love: his “attentiveness” is so smooth n silky. Fabulous reaction. Thanks. ❤
Thank you so much for this! I subscribed and look forward to more analysis! Would love to suggest that you analyze absolutely any song by Andrew Bird!
Ive been waiting for this. Your excitement is infectious! You must be so proud you helped with this mans talent. ❤
Always ask who is Ren what he wont and what we get from him . SOS is in his music bottle.
Love your enthusiasm Chris. It's like watching a kid on Christmas morning. Subbed!
I don't know much about singing that's why i love this Reactor but Ren songs make me feel concert exhausted afterwards.
This guy ren vocals are beyond sick love the sound 😮it's shocking how good he is absolutely amazing
Like Ren, you don’t disappoint. Thanks for a great reaction as always. Your enthusiasm is contagious 🥰
Has anyone watched Sam Tompkins singing live at the Apollo! Chris you need yo react to it!
I have literally been checking your channel everyday since this came out waiting for this reaction
Like the others, I’ve been really looking forward to your reaction to this. 😊
I thought that Ren’s voice sounded even better than before - so thank you for helping him to improve. 💛
Chris, you teach this stuff. Ren either worked this out for himself or picked it up from another artist Self taught, amazing.
I knew you would absolutely love this one. What a gem ❤
Hey Chris, I've been following you for about a year now and I love your reactions and analysis on songs. I think you need to recommend this one to The Charismatic Voice!
The look on Chris’ face and that cheer… THAT’S what Ren does.
