Really gutsy of you to tackle this song. And in front of a live audience. I enjoyed listening to it and I actually got to understand a few of the lyrics that I might have missed in the original. Let’s not forget how difficult this song is to learn on guitar and sing and play and MEMORIZE. That is an accomplishment in and of itself. Nice cover ! Congrats and good luck with your own career.
Some of the lyrics did stand out more for me as well. Way to go! Love people sharing Ren and what a super tricky song to do and LIVE!!! At first people where talking in the background and then by mid song you could have heard a pin drop.
Man, not gonna lie, I expected a train wreck. That was really well done. Not sure if the mistakes were intentional but to keep composure like that was super impressive. Much love!!
@@HazySusan Yeah, the sound quality was a bit dodgy but had nothing to do with how you performed yourself. The people talking while you did the very important surprise element of the initial build up was lost on them I would suggest you get your hands on an electric nylon string guitar and Pluck the fuck out of the drop D. D string, and DEMAND!! those chatty people shut up and pay attention whether they want to or not!
@@HazySusan And I hope Ren himself stumbles over this as he does enjoy watching people digging his stuff and he would be really proud of you for having the cahoonas to even bring that to a stage with an indifferent crowd to spring it on. It's a long way to the top if you wanna rock n roll. Took 10 years for Ren to get real recognition. Now he's off and racing but still years of dedication and devotion to hone his craft. You have my respect and for those that are way past "about" to rock We salute you. 👍😊🎸
7:30 Everytime I hear a Hi Ren cover I say: “This is the hardest part and the best, I really hope they don’t do it wrong.” And I think you did it just perfectly, I got shivers. I’m not usual to comment down on covers and this one really desearves it.
Top effort dude. Like others have said, to try this live is taking it to another level. Well done bud. It's probably my favourite Ren song. He is a legend.
From 🇩🇰 Denmark with love ❤ loved the noice from the audience, went numb… and they loved it, i also liked, a few of the differences you made… 🙌🌻 dacapo
Here I am commenting on this cover 7 months later. This took a lot of courage to get up in front of those people and attempt this masterpiece. You did a superb job. Thank you, thank you for sharing your rendition.
Playing live in front of an indifferent crowd, its a wonder you can walk with those stones! Well done, I'd like to hear it again after you've done it a few hundred times. Props bruh !🔥😎
Thanks for the encouragement. I'm just starting out on guitar. I love to play my own way. Letscsay its not orthodox, I'm just working it out my own way🤷️And I can sing my own songs. I just do it for myself . I applause your performance. I love live music and everyone should support grass roots venues
gave me as many chills as the original. like a new rollercoaster hearing it from a different voice and tempo, kudos for remembering all the lyrics and doing it live!!!
This was an amazing all around interpretation of a musical master piece. I totally thought right! Really?! Then as I watched I was really impressed by the way you did this from your own natural sense of self and rolled with it. Beautifully done. Prop! 😎😎😎😎❤❤❤❤
Now you know we all want to hear it, just do it or you will regret it. as the song says. Cower the man I’ve become when I sing from the top of my lungs. ❤
@@beckyboop3517 Sweet message. That Becky Boop. Is bit that really moves me. Its like a songbird . I get a soothing replay in my head whenever I get a bit low and need to conjure it up. And sometimes it just pops in my head anyway. Best wishes.
Wow! Way to bring yourself into it, and to take it out into the world! Beautiful and vulnerable. You even handled the enthusiastic "HEY, I KNOW THIS SONG TOO!" PlanB guy with grace and on rhythm. Bravo!
Great attempt man. I mean that sincerely. You just showed how difficult and intricate this song actually is and, by so doing, just how incredibly talented Ren is. Well done bro and thank you for spreading the RENaissance. Please keep practising this - you have a unique take on it that could really work, once you iron out all those very intricate and difficult pieces. As a fellow musician and fellow admirer of Ren, I wish you all the very best.
Holy shit! That was completely kick ass. Well done maestro. Ren has started a revolution. It is so beautiful to watch its energy, it’s brilliance inspire other artists like yourself. I loved how you made it your own. Expect to go viral my good man. And thank you. This was wonderful to wake up to.
Respect! As a fellow musician/entertainer/Ren lover learning this was a true labor of love. You did him justice! Awesome job on doing it and finding a way to make it also yours! I'm really impressed! You rock!
I just applauded a video on TH-cam. You've sanctified Hi Ren as a great song, not just a captured 10 minutes of artistic brilliance. It's an actual song, now, it's out there. People will play a guy called Ren who is at war with himself when they sing a song called Hi Ren. I might do a melodeon version for folk sessions, the F-bombs replaced with a Northern English "bloody". Anyway, a perfect cover. Not an impersonation, a delivery of the song, with just enough changes to show your own style. All the emotion, but enough distance to avoid it being cheesey (not trying to make it autobiographical, like the original is for Ren, not pretending to have gone through that). Outstanding.
Really good job, and a really good go at interpreting and putting a different character to it. Says something that you can do it an an open mic in teh US and audience members can do the "plan b did it" come back
Love the way the audience avalanches at the end.... You didn't seem to have much confidence in yourself, which was a shame because it was clear you could handle the song ❤
This is a difficult song to sing. You've got balls to do it live :D Though I feel you should have lowered the pitch by an octave for the vocalized melody. I doesn't look like you can pull it off as is.
There is a reason why you don't see many ren covers, it's nearly impossible to do. I'm so impressed that you did this, I wish I had the skills to come close to what you did. Great work
Wow man that was really good. Difficult to perform but you smashed it. I thought your smiling through the song was you actually laughing and trying to keep it together, but after the newsflash the smile added a really cool sinister aspect to your performance, I'm not sure if was intended or not but sure as hell it got menacingly crazy. Long live the RENegades!
Kudos, mate! Doing this in front of an audience! Ballsy. The guitar part and the rapping was really good, actually! You should work on your singing though, especially the opening part. Maybe replace it with something more in your range, cause that felt difficult 😊 Great job, anyways!
Everyone responds to emotional pain differently. For instance, the person who burst out inhale-laughing at "music is all about the creative process.." is himself a musician who's battled very similar demons. That was not a laugh of joy, it was a laugh of recognition.
I don't think Ren feels the same, though it is kind of you to want to protect him. He plays other people's music, and encourages others to play his. He even comments on people's covers ❤.
This should NEVER be covered. This is an account of a man's mental health experience and not a song. It's pathetic in its delivery. Even if Jay Z tried to perform it, it would also be pathetic because its out of context. This is cashing in at its worst. Vile Vile Vile.
Not only is it a story of rens mental health, this was this guys way of sharing rens messages via cover, music is for those to learn and grow, if you can't respect that then you shouldn't be commenting

Hello, just Want to tell the full text, is now on the Original hi ren song.
Some of the lyrics did stand out more for me as well. Way to go! Love people sharing Ren and what a super tricky song to do and LIVE!!! At first people where talking in the background and then by mid song you could have heard a pin drop.
Bringing Ren to the Hamms and PBR audience! Bold! Thank you- they need Ren as much as we all do.
😂😂 You have no idea how accurately "The Hamms and PBR Audience" describes this bar and its wonderful regulars. Spot on!
My bro drinks Hamms I made him listen to this back in Sept!
Wow that was really rad! I think Ren would dig it! This makes me want to see more of your work! Thank you for sharing this ✌️🖤
Thank you!
At the risk of blatant self-promotion.. quite pleased with this original:

Man, not gonna lie, I expected a train wreck. That was really well done. Not sure if the mistakes were intentional but to keep composure like that was super impressive. Much love!!
Thanks!
They're honest mistakes. But we find it best not to dwell on them!
It was a train wreck.
honestly, the mistakes add so much to this performance
You capture the duality of the personalities amazingly.
Really good rendition, we are so proud of Ren here in the UK.
That was really gutsy of you to do. Bravo!
Thanks!
Definitely had shaky knees before/during/after. Obviously nowhere near as moving as the original, but I feel reasonably happy about it :)
@@HazySusan Yeah, the sound quality was a bit dodgy but had nothing to do with how you performed yourself.

I would suggest you get your hands on an electric nylon string guitar and Pluck the fuck out of the drop D. D string, and DEMAND!! those chatty people shut up and pay attention whether they want to or not!

Really liked this laid back version.. I was so glad the audience actually quieted down and seemed to listen.. powerful performance.. thanks! 🎶♥️🎶
Well done mate! Not an easy song to atempt to sing, let alone performing it live like you did! Nicely done!! 👏💪
This is awesome I think he would be so stoked to see this. Great job.
From 🇩🇰 Denmark with love ❤ loved the noice from the audience, went numb… and they loved it, i also liked, a few of the differences you made… 🙌🌻 dacapo

Mad respect to this dude!
Dude this good for a first time cover !. Luv it ..
Your good !!..
like to see more tunes from you!
Luv peace & harmony….🧙♂️
Playing live in front of an indifferent crowd, its a wonder you can walk with those stones! Well done, I'd like to hear it again after you've done it a few hundred times. Props bruh !🔥😎
I listened to the whole thing and loved it. Great cover!
Lol, to do this live you got some balls, Great job ;)
Impressive cover, and huge stones for doing it live!
I think you did a really nice job! Apparently only Ren can do those operatic sounds but i LOVE your dramatic interpretation. Huzzah
Thanks for the encouragement. I'm just starting out on guitar. I love to play my own way. Letscsay its not orthodox, I'm just working it out my own way🤷️And I can sing my own songs. I just do it for myself . I applause your performance. I love live music and everyone should support grass roots venues
I really hope Ren has seen this as it’s a brilliant cover and he’ll love that people on the other side of the pond get to hear it.
Wow! Nicely done! I cannot imagine how much you put into doing this. Ren is like his own genre. (It's also interesting to hear it in "American".)
Awesome! Great cover.
gave me as many chills as the original. like a new rollercoaster hearing it from a different voice and tempo, kudos for remembering all the lyrics and doing it live!!!
Brilliant. First cover also I have seen from someone over here in the states which is weirdly one thing I wanted to hear
Brave!
Wow, brave man! Brilliant effort - well done...
This makes me happy rens music is bieng heard and appriciated.❤❤
The way the audience went from full ignoring to deafening silence, you nailed this shit
This was an amazing all around interpretation of a musical master piece. I totally thought right! Really?! Then as I watched I was really impressed by the way you did this from your own natural sense of self and rolled with it. Beautifully done. Prop! 😎😎😎😎❤❤❤❤
Bravo!
As a Susan, Suzanne from the UK. Its a trip hearing it in a American accent. I have my own version that I won't unleash on the public. You got it.
"I won't unleash on the public"
That's just your inner critic talking. Pay them no heed. Do it!
@@HazySusan I always did but got a bit weary. Lovely message .I am revviing up again. Best wishes
Now you know we all want to hear it, just do it or you will regret it. as the song says. Cower the man I’ve become
when I sing from the top of my lungs.
❤

Brave ! & Bravo!!!
That was actually really great! The final part starting at ‘so cower at the man I’ve become’ gave me chills, as Ren’s did!
Nicely done!!!
You did a great job , loved it and I am huge Ren fan. 👏🏼
Maaan, this was great! I can see how you sail like a champ the heavy waves.
Courageous suffering begets fierce joy.
Great job! thanks! Great interpretation!
Dude! Is really a suicide to attempt that song live! Lol you did a fair job for an incredibly difficult song to play AND sing. Kudos!
Brilliant cover
Man this is ridiculous!
In the ironic, positive way...
You're heroic.
Great cover of the magical musical maniac ❤ren
Wow! Way to bring yourself into it, and to take it out into the world! Beautiful and vulnerable. You even handled the enthusiastic "HEY, I KNOW THIS SONG TOO!" PlanB guy with grace and on rhythm. Bravo!
It helped that the enthusiastic guy is a friend and band-mate. He's good people 🤣
@@HazySusan wait, you're telling me that was a set up??!😂
@@AmaliaFraud Oh, no setup. Just meant well.
Awesome 👍👍👍
Chills.
Welldone! Taking Rens work to the peoples places.
Great job man- I enjoyed it! 🖤🖤
That was a good cover - I love the little changes you made to put your own spin on it . Very difficult song and you did it justice . ❤ from Canada
Great performance !!
Great great effort and to be honest brave choice! Well done friend
Great attempt man. I mean that sincerely. You just showed how difficult and intricate this song actually is and, by so doing, just how incredibly talented Ren is.

well done man.
Good. As a Renegade (Fan of Ren), you did it right. Presentation of the content. VERY VERY good!!!
Holy shit! That was completely kick ass. Well done maestro.
Ren has started a revolution. It is so beautiful to watch its energy, it’s brilliance inspire other artists like yourself.
I loved how you made it your own.
Expect to go viral my good man. And thank you. This was wonderful to wake up to.
Well done my friend! Such a challenging song! You smashed it!
THAT was really surprisingly good!
🔥 respect dude I'll check out more of your work
Respect! As a fellow musician/entertainer/Ren lover learning this was a true labor of love. You did him justice! Awesome job on doing it and finding a way to make it also yours! I'm really impressed! You rock!
Doing it live…. Impressive!
LOved did!
You did well!
Wow, that was interesting. The audience seemed to love it too! I like it
I just applauded a video on TH-cam.

Outstanding.
LOVE the idea of a melodeon cover/interpretation. Please do it and upload it so we can all see!
Not bad...silenced the chatter...😄
That was fresh.
The RENvolution has started.
Fantastic job. You could hear a pin drop. Totally captivated the audience.
That was a brave song choice mate and some great moments in there, you should definatly keep practicing it!
lol, the audience stopped chatting after the the devil showed up.
Live the audience
There’s a guy that was whistling tune in the crowd. We got a renegade.
The crowd were silent around 6.30 and beyond. Impactful cover.
Really good job, and a really good go at interpreting and putting a different character to it. Says something that you can do it an an open mic in teh US and audience members can do the "plan b did it" come back
Filling big shoes, and you did it. Really enjoyed your version.
Love the way the audience avalanches at the end....
You didn't seem to have much confidence in yourself, which was a shame because it was clear you could handle the song ❤
So good brother. Thank you from the fire in my heart. ❤ Fuckin' Ren.
decent dude
Good job my man 👌🏼
Nice cover! I also did a Hi Ren cover on my channel ☺️
I actually got chills a few times. Well done!
This is crazy. Ren is very good isn’t he?
@ren
This is a difficult song to sing. You've got balls to do it live :D Though I feel you should have lowered the pitch by an octave for the vocalized melody. I doesn't look like you can pull it off as is.

You did great. Some of his notes are really hard to hit. 😊
My only thought is that you need to make it more obvious which is the sin speaking and which is Ren (or you). Thx
Thanks! Will definitely work on that!
Its not perfect but I loved it!
Wow man that was really good. Difficult to perform but you smashed it. I thought your smiling through the song was you actually laughing and trying to keep it together, but after the newsflash the smile added a really cool sinister aspect to your performance, I'm not sure if was intended or not but sure as hell it got menacingly crazy.

Great job, anyways!
This shows how hard this song is and how god REN is, it’s just so far away, but nice try though. Sick boy next time 😅
Good effort, a bit more self belief and shake off those nerves and I think you could smash it.
Nope
The laughing offends me. These words cut. It’s not comedy!
Everyone responds to emotional pain differently.
For instance, the person who burst out inhale-laughing at "music is all about the creative process.." is himself a musician who's battled very similar demons. That was not a laugh of joy, it was a laugh of recognition.
Ren should never be copied, esp this one!
