@@TunesandChill Watching your prologue as I type. Just stay who you are, never try to "react", RENegades pick up on that quickly. Be honest, be true and the community will always back you. Love you so far, subbed for more reactions ❤
Great reaction, thank you so much. You need to check out some lighter hearted material from Ren so that you see how diverse he is as an artist and performer. Busking with his band The Big Push is always great to watch, and performances like his rendition of Back on 74, provides opportunity to hear more of his singing voice.
BTW, this is what Sinead O’Connor posted after watching “Hi Ren”: “Holy motherfuckin SHIT! Someone just showed me this at the weekend. This Archangel from like, twelfth heaven or somewhere, has only gone and made the entire history of songwriting and performing look like a three year old's birthday party at Burger King.”
She went on to write: “Every song and or artist in history even Willie Dixon, Chuck Berry, The Beatles, NWA, Ice Cube, and even Bob Dylan, is officially relegated to class B. As are every actor in history or legend: living or dead, male or female. We all are now defunct.”
@@StrangeThings2.0 and praises from others too like no other than Elton John and Andrew Lloyd Webber - the guy who’s made over a $1.07 BILLION from his musicals, like Cats and Phantom of The Opera. Ren is the artist’s artist.
Love your reaction ❤ Your facial expressions are priceless 🤯 Maybe you should watch now some lighter stuff of Ren ?! All of his busking videos in Brighton with his former band "The Big Push" are brilliant ❣ Or , as a UK reactor, Ren- Bittersweet symphony (The Verve), Ren- Right Here, Right Now (Fatboy Slim). Tomorrow a new one will drop, Ren- Slaughter house.
@@TunesandChill Power is my favorite more upbeat one -- still some darkness bc that kid's been through the wringer, but the vibe is great and you get to see him just grooving in the car with Samuel driving (he's the one included in the title at the beginning of Screech's Tale, does the filming for most (all?) of Ren's videos). Also for some happy tears you should check out the video of him listening to the radio with a bunch of his friends to find out if Sick Boi was the #1 album in the UK (spoiler: it was).
So glad i followed you over here. Great reaction to Ren's 'tales' There's something very satisfying about watching people's jaws literally drop and you didn't disappoint. 😉 Thanks.
Welcome to the cult of Ren 😁. The Tales are dark,and they do hang around for a long time after you first see them. He has some more waiting to release as well. I love the way you do your reactions, just absorbing it all, but if you do ever need to pause and rewind to understand, don’t feel you can’t, it’s your channel 🙂. There is so much more to come, deep, dark, and fun too, lots of different styles, it’s always something new. I’m almost envious of you to having the whole rabbit hole ahead of you
Your accent is lovely! I've watched an unhealthy number of reactor videos to this trilogy, and I thoroughly enjoyed this! You're in my top tier of Ren reactors and I look forward to your Ren journey!
Even though its only your second Ren reaction. You are so far easily my favorite newer reactor to Ren. I love how you watch them through first. To me part of what makes Ren so great is his ability to make you feel. I havnt gotten that from music 8n so long. But never like he has made me feel. A lot of Reactors do miss the full impact of his genius bc they are pausing etc. Ren feels his music and makes music to feel. You summed it up so brilliantly I have tried and tried to come up with an easy explanation of Ren. But Movement is perfect. Im going to borrow your term!!!😊 Love you from North Dakota
Thank you so much for sharing your reaction...I can't express how joyful it is to witness someone opening treasure after treasure from Ren ... you must have a steel will to resist deep diving into his art. 🎉
This compilation hit me like it obviously hi you and I heartily agree Ren is a musical, lyrical and theatrical genius as is his friend and fellow collaborator cinematographer Sam. Together they create magic painful honest brutal magic. A true bard for our troubled times. I enjoyed sharing this one with you and sharing your first impressions ❤I subbed on the strength of your reacttionand look forward to more. Sending greetings from Australia ❤
I can see you immediately “get it” which tells me Ren will probably change your life. That may seem over dramatic but having followed him for some years I have seen it happen with my own eyes let alone been affected myself. I have seen a few reactors that have gone down the rabbit hole and become so comfortable opening up on camera that it was almost like therapy. I hope you will find this a safe place to share when ever you feel compelled too. I’m looking forward to sharing your journey 🫶
Awesome reaction! Ren will likely become your one of your top artists of all time. Not just for his music, and his artistry. He seems to be for all intents and purposes a wonderful human being.
Thats our modern day bard right there, with a sprinkle of shakespearean tragedy 🥹💜💜 and yes, you are spot on, ren isnt only one of the most precious hooman beans on this planet, he is also a whole movement 🥹
This was the first thing I ever heard by Ren and it broke my damn heart, I also thought about it for a good solid day or two after watching it with shivers down my arms every time. Such a moving sad tale and written with such passion towards all involved, Ren really knows how to tug on the heartstrings doesn't he?! I'm so glad I found this channel, your reacts are great and I can't wait to see you go further down the rabbit hole! Peace man x
You, sir, are one of the most genuine reactors out there and we’re here for it! Just remember to switch it up and do some lighter songs. And REN has many up tempo songs with deep, painful lyrics and others that are just fun. I always suggest people who really want to glimpse into REN’s journey watch the 8 chapters of REN’s history on his renmakesstuff channel. Each chapter ends with a song so be sure to stop before it starts if you plan to react. Also, he has older song that are also incredible so don’t just look for the most recent. One last word about the songs - a good number of songs have both an official and an acoustic version. They are very different and both should be watched. To make it even more complicated, a fair number of songs have both a lyric version as well as a static image while the song plays. The lyric videos will knock your socks off. Thank you for your heartfelt reaction. Now, onto the next! 🎉
Sending you a hug. It's a rough one. It's so cinematic it's hard to believe there's just one performer and a cameraman. Ren and his cinematographer Samuel Perry Falvey are such an incredible team. You were right about Brighton, too, Ren lives there. Your brother might have seen him busking if he's been there more than 5 years.
Violet's Tale did pretty much the same to me ! He wrote it quite some time after releasing Jenny's Tale and then Screech's Tale. The performance art is brilliant. Ren is very hands-on with direction and works a lot with Sam Perry-Falvey on music videos. Ren doesn't read music - he learned to play guitar watching TH-cam videos and watching the hand positions of his idols like John Frusciante (Red Hot Chilli Peppers). His unorthodox and unique sound and versatility has evolved free of the constraints of formal training. His main passion is cinematography/videography and performance over music. Really hope this reaches (adult) audiences on your other channel who maybe haven't yet subscribed !
I'm so glad to see you continuing down the Ren rabbit hole! The Tales really show off his storytelling artistry. Thank you for sharing a very heartfelt reaction with us, I'm really looking forward to more from you!
Your body language and facial expressions say it all my friend. I've watched how many times I don't know, and I still tear up every damn time. Thank you for your reaction.
Another fact tale of Jenny and Screech (but not Violet) really happened in London. Young Ren red the article about 14 years old boy killed a girl/woman and then got killed by police. And the article was named “Such a shame”.
The Tale of Jenny and Screech never gets old. It’s a masterpiece. Your reaction really does say it all. I think everyone had similar responses the first time. Fun fact: I’m not sure if they still want to, but at one point Ren and Sam wanted to do a Netflix series and I really hope one day it happens. Song suggestion: Power, I think you’ll really like this one.
It's so great to see someone react the same way I did to Ren's music!! There are so many people who, for instance, just skim right over things I find absolutely genius like Ren using the guitar for the gunshots, but you did that exact hands-on-head reaction I did when I first saw it, lol. It's both painful and cathartic to be a highly emotional person and watch his videos, but every one of them is worth it. Also I absolutely love that you're watching them straight through and then talking about them at the end, because they have such a momentum that gets lost when reactors keep pausing and rewinding them. I watch and enjoy those reactions as well, but it's great to finally see someone take this approach instead. Subbed and turned on notifications to both your channels, and I will watch every last Ren reaction you post at least once!
Great reaction. You won't stop thinking about it. You may want to hear how other people react to it. There is no one else like Ren. He loves live one takes. We all love Ren. Please take part in his new release premier tomorrow. ❤❤❤
Great reaction, Ren has many more that are gut wrenching, For Joe, Chalk Outlines to name just 2. If you fancy something a bit more upbeat for a change I’d recommend Murderer or Losing It.
“He’s like a movement, isn’t he?” BEST description of his impact and art that I’ve heard! I think you’ll really enjoy the Money Games Trilogy- unlike this one, all 3 parts to Money Game can be reacted to separately (or at once if you prefer). Another outstanding reaction- looking forward to your continued journey!!
Crucify your culture as a prologue, and Money Ties as the epilogue. I would do the 2fer Money Games 2 - Lyrics first and Sky Arts Live. I think that makes MG2 all the better.
@@usa4freedom1 That's brutal. We'd be here all day, oh wait.... BTW CyberskullMedia is doing that on Friday.... Just sayin'. They did Crucify last week. Doing MG1-3 Premiere 1:15 EST. th-cam.com/video/QGRhGrip5uM/w-d-xo.html
Wonderful reaction! All shot in Brighton. One takes by his friend Samuel Perry-Falvey. Also filmed Hi Rwn and award winning Money Game 3. Think aftet tomorrow, you shoykd do Chalk Outlines live with Chinchilla . Ren has a a lit of mysic ready to release. He was not improving so stopped the brutal intensive treatments. He is back in Brighton and looking mych better, doing more wholistic treatments till he can regroup to tackle Bartonella again. Poignantly, he was filming a new Tale calked Starry Night, when he collapsed with severe eye pain, to end up in A and E. He was all over social media the past few days. We love him quite dearly. See you tomorrow at the premier a half hour befire on the live chat. Ren will be there i think.
Wow absolutely love your reaction I like that you watch first seeing your face and reaction during the songs is great us renegades get such a buzz at seeing the Ren effect in action. Can't wait for the next one so far my best reactor to watch lovin it ❤
Great reaction! In case no one's mentioned it yet, you should watch Ren's million subscriber video and the 8 chapter speech he wrote prior to the release of the 'Troubles' video to get an idea what kind of person he is and some of what he's been through. There's also a blog post from several years ago that he put in a 'hi ren' premiere announcement. You'll probably need a box of tissues. A couple of my favorite Ren songs at the moment- Humble, Losing It.
Definitely Brighton....All live. After Jenny - OMG that was intense - RENegades nod knowingly and say "just wait". Mate please note that we have seen RENactors have to literally go offline and comeback to finish. We all want to hug you now and have you feel the love. The realization of the twins hits us all EVERY TIME. Generational Trauma is never easy. Jenny & Violet - Silent - Screech & Stevie - Violent - Jenny's tale was inspired by a news story that Ren read in a police blotter. The Tales took 3 years to complete. There are bridges between the tales on the streaming services that add another layer to the Tales. Ren music is beautiful and ALWAYS makes you think long after you have heard the song. This is why we love him so. In the lead up to Screech's Tale, Ren did some IG Reels on Screech's backstory. It gives you a bit of insight into why Patrick and the GF may not have had time for Screech. th-cam.com/video/BICvZAS1FR0/w-d-xo.html - Recently a fan did Richard's Tale from the police officer's perspective, it's very good. th-cam.com/video/TRz3xNtACWM/w-d-xo.html. He's an amazingly self-taught musician. Ren is a Welsh Bard/Minstrel. You can see him putting on the minstrel's mask with each tale. Violet's Tale being the most visible with the shoulder reset. This was filmed in a residential area and yes they did get a couple of STFUs in some of the takes. Who is Violet is the most asked question. Brain Squeeze Reactions made merch for charity that said "Who TF is Violet?" which was his first reaction to her. Please know that ALL of Ren is NOT like this. We start you with trauma and dark so that we can take you into the light. Recommend some Love Music, Parts 1-4 to palate cleanse your brain. They are fun, upbeat and a lyrical good time.
Thank you for your reaction. You helped me understand why I have become obsessed with Ren over the last few months. Ren is only the second person in my life to waltz through my barriers as if they do not even exist. I married the first one even though as Ren says he was a "wrong'n".
Excellent reaction man really 👍 Ren's the best storyteller nowadays... But don't worry, Ren talks about society, he's nearly the only one who does it but yeah ... He makes us think ! He makes us want to be better human beings ... The trilogy of Money Game is a must to see and then you have some funnier ones, where Ren will make you laugh out loud 😉 His rabbit hole is so deep, wide and full of masterpieces and each song is different from the others. I'm having a lot of fun to see you continue Ren's journey ! Thanks so much for this fire reaction 🔥😘
You are becoming my favorite reactor. Try some of his busking videos with The Big Push for something lighter. He as also done a couple songs with Chinchilla and their voices together are positively haunting. He will surprise you at every turn.
Yes, these are all live and all shot in one take. (Many practices to get ready, one shot final take) And yes, Ren was born in Wales but has lived in Brighton for years.
I agree with some others that you might want to check out some of Ren's lighter side too -- just as amazing without the emotional roller coaster. 😂 The Hunger, Half Time and Losing It are great for him rapping, Back on 74 and Fred Again Mashup for his incredible singing voice, and look for songs from The Big Push for his busking days. Welcome to the Reniverse! 😊
Great reaction. You'll be pleased to know Ren does have a few less emotional songs which are just a bit of fun. Not all of them kick you in the head until you're an emotional wreck! They're all absolute works of art though! Jenny and Screech was written after Ren read a news article about a young lad stabbing someone to death and he was moved to create something to address the knife crime problem and we got this absolute masterpiece! For something else to make you cry I recommend Dominoes - Although there's only a lyric video for that one. If you like Rap I suggest the hunger. For a vocal showcase check out the Back on 74/Message in a bottle covers (Single song, it's a mashup of the 2 songs). The Money game trilogy is a great depiction of the greed culture ruling our lives. Kujo beat down is fantastic, but I suggest not watching that unless you have watched Ren's video explaining the situation first or you will be very confused. Also Sick Boi - which is the song which started the whole controversy around the Kujo Beatdown song. I noticed you wondering who Samuel is that was mentioned at the start of Screech's tale - He's the cinematographer who has shot a lot of Ren's videos (Hi Ren, and all 3 of these included) and a big part of the reason these videos are so compelling. If it's a Ren and Sam video you know it's going to be special!
You got this right, it was hard to watch you go through this one. But thanks for being your honest self. Ren always hits hard- whether emotionally, or vibes.
Welcome to the world of Ren, roads in this world are hard full of confusion, pain and hard emotions, but in the same time you will always feel the hope going side by side with you giving you great strength through the path to the pure truth! In this world greed will let you to the darkest forest, alone and lost but the humanity and empathy will lead you to the most beautiful fields full with spring flowers and butterflies where you can live in community full with happiness and light, where darkness never prevails! Ren is the voice of our souls!❤
Greetings from central Canada, new subscriber here, an old bloke who's been around live music for the whole half-century I've been on this planet. I too have recently been introduced to Ren and am also blown away. I've seen a lot, and I mean a LOT, of music in my life, basically growing up around music festivals and the like, but Ren is a one of a kind, nevermind once in a generation, once in the species of humanity kind of musician. I'm looking forward to going further down the rabbithole with you! FWIW, I am trying to (re) learn guitar (haven't played in 20+ years, and now have early onset parkinson symptoms making it difficult, nonetheless i persist), anyways, Ren plays in 'Drop D', you might've noticed, and as you've commented on his atypical style, he's self-taught, so that's probably why his style is so unique. I imagine I may develop some unique styles as well as I continue to try to drill the muscle memory back into my now quirky fingers. If you feel like taking a brief break from the Renniverse, and like watching incredible guitar talent, may I humbly suggest to check out the video of Tina S playing Moonlight Sonata on electric guitar. The video is almost ten years old now, and she's now lead guitarist in a metal band :)
Thank you for the message. I have spent a lot of time in Vancouver as my wife's family moved there from South Africa. Thank you for the recommendation, after I have finished REN I might put the rection on the channel.
Loved your reaction and your insight! I look forward to jumping down the Ren rabbit hole with you. Been there since early 2023 and haven't come out of it since. He has many upbeat songs like 'What you want' where he's just having fun. And he has catchy songs with a very deep meaning like 'Seven sins'. If you want him singing an amazing duet with another fantastic artist called Chinchilla, I'd recommend 'How to be me (live)'. You'll be amazed at how versatile he is. Love from Germany 💜
I have a hard time watching this trilogy and still I do bcs I need to see how it affects others. Ren has so many amazing songs for different reasons and you don’t have to do all the heavy ones right away. Obviously Su*c*de and For Joe are so good and so sad. ❤But for example Power and Loosing it are fun. 😊 Back on 74 is a completely different vibe ❤ he does all the genres ❤ Thank you for your reaction 🥰
Excellent reaction! So glad you watched without pausing 😊 Your expressions were pretty much as mine were when I first saw this. Just mindblown. Really looking forward to your Ren journey ❤
I totally agree with you take on the story and I reacted the same way x Ren is a genius x song writer, poet, rapper his talents are never ending. Raw talent x
You are a new favorite reactor of mine. I never say that. You’re good. I’m home bound with autoimmune. I watch Ren reactions everyday. Trying to help Ren lift ships, as it were. I do it for Ren. You sir, are a pleasure to watch! Thanks 😉❤️
I want to give you a big hug. ❤❤❤ We know, trust me, we renegades know what you felt there... ❤❤❤ Lots of love from a german renegade. You are awesome!!
Another superb,heart felt reaction. As I watched you, I was thinking "you don't know whats about to hit you" and then before I knew it I was crying along with you. I've never seen a better demonstration or explanation of generational abuse, but Ren reaches in and rips your heart out. Your enthusiasm and praise is so sincere, welcome to the world of Ren❤️
This is always a tough one to get through. Your reaction is one most people have. A rollercoaster of emotions but also realizing what a masterpiece this is. He tackles the tough subjects in many of his pieces. I respect him for that.
COMPOSURE. 😂 This is a tough, but important, watch. He sums up intergenerational abuse and trauma in a concise, painfully beautiful way. It's incredibly affecting and definitely pulls you in almost instantly. Great reaction! Oh, and I do believe it was filmed in Brighton. For some performances that are more fun and upbeat, you could check out him busking with his band the Big Push.
It's great to hear the reaction from another Brit. Your one of the best reactors to Ren that i've found. I think some of it is a Brit thing as we understand bits that others who didn't grow up here wouldn't.
I got to the end of Jenny's Tale and had to comment.. Intense is yet to come.. My partner got me onto Ren, and I have never looked back.. I effectively work 18 hour days, but every night, I unwind to at least 1 Ren Reaction.. You Sir, are one of the wholesome, honest and true reactors I've seen in a long time.. Keep it up!
You are one of my favourite reactors to Ren , your reaction was amazing! Ren is incredible, I can't wait to see you react to more , sickboi, kujobeat down , money game1,2,3 , for Joe , Mackay , the hunger , so many more 😊
I love your Ren reactions, I can tell you truly appreciate his art. When you said you knew what to expect from Ren I let out a loud singular HA! I think when you get further down the rabbit hole you’ll find that statement funny too, other than excellence and creativity he will surprise you over and over again, in the best way
Oh I just love your reaction to this, beautifully raw and honest, good spot on Brighton too, even tho songs set in london it was filmed in Brighton where Ren lives.
Loving your reactions to Ren 😍 Ren is an amazing artist keep reacting and enjoying his music. Suggestion for next reaction.... 'For Joe' ( its on the keyboard)
A classic tale of generational violence...London happens to be the place in this story (filmed in Brighton, you are correct, with his friend Samuel Palvey) but I've not heard confirmation from Ren or his community page that this is a factual story but WE KNOW and many of us have LIVED similar stories (HUGS)..I believe Ren has the tremendous skill of feeling the pulse of society at large and in particular, the underbelly of it. He's simply magnificent in my view. He touches on MANY genres in his music catalog and there's a bit of something for everyone. Enjoy! New sub.
My brother lives in Brighton and I have spent at of time there, that's where I got the vibe from. He is an amazing story teller and I can not wait to keep going down the rabbit hole
@@TunesandChill thanks for the reply. Very kind of you. Did you happen to upload this twice? I saw it come across my feed again and this comment isn't on that one. but whatever lol...doesn't really matter was just curious. Best of luck to you and your channel.

I've seen sooooo many reactions of this tale and you are so right, this is by far one of the best reactions i've seen.

“Every song and or artist in history even Willie Dixon, Chuck Berry, The Beatles, NWA, Ice Cube, and even Bob Dylan, is officially relegated to class B. As are every actor in history or legend: living or dead, male or

@@analisasmith7927 Wow, so I am guessing she was a fan! as someone who used a lot of trauma in her music I guess this would resonate with her a lot

Thank you so much for sharing your reaction...I can't express how joyful it is to witness someone opening treasure after treasure from Ren ... you must have a steel will to resist deep diving into his art. 🎉
Great reaction as always, now you need an uplifting REN song, The Big Push I Shot the Sheriff (with red braces) maybe which is the band he was in
Exactly this!
Yyyeeeesssssssss🎉
This compilation hit me like it obviously hi you and I heartily agree Ren is a musical, lyrical and theatrical genius as is his friend and fellow collaborator cinematographer Sam. Together they create magic painful honest brutal magic. A true bard for our troubled times.

Violets tale was done after. All were filmed in Brighton by Sam. One takes. You got the story correct.
Wow, it did have a Brighton look to and I have spent a lot of time there!
That story was so intense
Awesome reaction! Ren will likely become your one of your top artists of all time. Not just for his music, and his artistry. He seems to be for all intents and purposes a wonderful human being.
I completely agree, he has already had such an impact on me! It is taking all of my strength to wait and listen to everything
Thats our modern day bard right there, with a sprinkle of shakespearean tragedy 🥹💜💜 and yes, you are spot on, ren isnt only one of the most precious hooman beans on this planet, he is also a whole movement 🥹

Great reaction mate. Ren is dropping a new song Thursday 21 UK time. Cheers,
Violet's Tale did pretty much the same to me ! He wrote it quite some time after releasing Jenny's Tale and then Screech's Tale. The performance art is brilliant. Ren is very hands-on with direction and works a lot with Sam Perry-Falvey on music videos. Ren doesn't read music - he learned to play guitar watching TH-cam videos and watching the hand positions of his idols like John Frusciante (Red Hot Chilli Peppers). His unorthodox and unique sound and versatility has evolved free of the constraints of formal training. His main passion is cinematography/videography and performance over music. Really hope this reaches (adult) audiences on your other channel who maybe haven't yet subscribed !
I'm so glad to see you continuing down the Ren rabbit hole! The Tales really show off his storytelling artistry. Thank you for sharing a very heartfelt reaction with us, I'm really looking forward to more from you!
The artist of my life
Your body language and facial expressions say it all my friend. I've watched how many times I don't know, and I still tear up every damn time. Thank you for your reaction.
Another fact tale of Jenny and Screech (but not Violet) really happened in London. Young Ren red the article about 14 years old boy killed a girl/woman and then got killed by police. And the article was named “Such a shame”.
2:50 “I love how he creates a story”… about to be blowed away
The Tale of Jenny and Screech never gets old. It’s a masterpiece. Your reaction really does say it all. I think everyone had similar responses the first time.
Fun fact: I’m not sure if they still want to, but at one point Ren and Sam wanted to do a Netflix series and I really hope one day it happens.
Song suggestion: Power, I think you’ll really like this one.
Nailed it! Such a horrifically well done masterpiece. The REN rollercoaster has many layers. Some fun, serious and polical peaks along the way. Enjoy😊
Totally agree that it's a masterpiece. Such amazing storytelling
Oh man I heard that “no!” At the end in my hearth
This is a masterpiece, thank you for you honest and raw reaction, here for the ride with you❤
It's so great to see someone react the same way I did to Ren's music!! There are so many people who, for instance, just skim right over things I find absolutely genius like Ren using the guitar for the gunshots, but you did that exact hands-on-head reaction I did when I first saw it, lol. It's both painful and cathartic to be a highly emotional person and watch his videos, but every one of them is worth it. Also I absolutely love that you're watching them straight through and then talking about them at the end, because they have such a momentum that gets lost when reactors keep pausing and rewinding them. I watch and enjoy those reactions as well, but it's great to finally see someone take this approach instead. Subbed and turned on notifications to both your channels, and I will watch every last Ren reaction you post at least once!
Many many hugs to you. Great reaction!!
Great reaction. You won't stop thinking about it. You may want to hear how other people react to it. There is no one else like Ren. He loves live one takes. We all love Ren.
Please take part in his new release premier tomorrow. ❤❤❤
Great reaction, Ren has many more that are gut wrenching, For Joe, Chalk Outlines to name just 2. If you fancy something a bit more upbeat for a change I’d recommend Murderer or Losing It.
“He’s like a movement, isn’t he?” BEST description of his impact and art that I’ve heard! I think you’ll really enjoy the Money Games Trilogy- unlike this one, all 3 parts to Money Game can be reacted to separately (or at once if you prefer). Another outstanding reaction- looking forward to your continued journey!!
All together ❤❤❤❤
Crucify your culture as a prologue, and Money Ties as the epilogue. I would do the 2fer Money Games 2 - Lyrics first and Sky Arts Live. I think that makes MG2 all the better.
All at once! All at once!🐰💕🌸🌸🌸
@@usa4freedom1 That's brutal. We'd be here all day, oh wait.... BTW CyberskullMedia is doing that on Friday.... Just sayin'. They did Crucify last week. Doing MG1-3 Premiere 1:15 EST. th-cam.com/video/QGRhGrip5uM/w-d-xo.html
Wonderful reaction!
All shot in Brighton. One takes by his friend Samuel Perry-Falvey. Also filmed Hi Rwn and award winning Money Game 3. Think aftet tomorrow, you shoykd do Chalk Outlines live with Chinchilla . Ren has a a lit of mysic ready to release. He was not improving so stopped the brutal intensive treatments. He is back in Brighton and looking mych better, doing more wholistic treatments till he can regroup to tackle Bartonella again. Poignantly, he was filming a new Tale calked Starry Night, when he collapsed with severe eye pain, to end up in A and E. He was all over social media the past few days.
We love him quite dearly.
See you tomorrow at the premier a half hour befire on the live chat. Ren will be there i think.
Thanks ❤ -looking forward to the next one.👍
Wow absolutely love your reaction
I like that you watch first seeing your face and reaction during the songs is great us renegades get such a buzz at seeing the Ren effect in action. Can't wait for the next one so far my best reactor to watch lovin it ❤
I’m loving your reactions. The way you react is exactly how I reacted. Money Game trilogy next please!
Great reaction! In case no one's mentioned it yet, you should watch Ren's million subscriber video and the 8 chapter speech he wrote prior to the release of the 'Troubles' video to get an idea what kind of person he is and some of what he's been through. There's also a blog post from several years ago that he put in a 'hi ren' premiere announcement. You'll probably need a box of tissues. A couple of my favorite Ren songs at the moment- Humble, Losing It.
Tnx man, amaizing reaction 🙌 suport and love from Renegades🍀❤️
Definitely Brighton....All live. After Jenny - OMG that was intense - RENegades nod knowingly and say "just wait". Mate please note that we have seen RENactors have to literally go offline and comeback to finish. We all want to hug you now and have you feel the love. The realization of the twins hits us all EVERY TIME. Generational Trauma is never easy. Jenny & Violet - Silent - Screech & Stevie - Violent - Jenny's tale was inspired by a news story that Ren read in a police blotter. The Tales took 3 years to complete. There are bridges between the tales on the streaming services that add another layer to the Tales. Ren music is beautiful and ALWAYS makes you think long after you have heard the song. This is why we love him so.
In the lead up to Screech's Tale, Ren did some IG Reels on Screech's backstory. It gives you a bit of insight into why Patrick and the GF may not have had time for Screech. th-cam.com/video/BICvZAS1FR0/w-d-xo.html - Recently a fan did Richard's Tale from the police officer's perspective, it's very good. th-cam.com/video/TRz3xNtACWM/w-d-xo.html. He's an amazingly self-taught musician. Ren is a Welsh Bard/Minstrel. You can see him putting on the minstrel's mask with each tale. Violet's Tale being the most visible with the shoulder reset. This was filmed in a residential area and yes they did get a couple of STFUs in some of the takes. Who is Violet is the most asked question. Brain Squeeze Reactions made merch for charity that said "Who TF is Violet?" which was his first reaction to her.
Please know that ALL of Ren is NOT like this. We start you with trauma and dark so that we can take you into the light. Recommend some Love Music, Parts 1-4 to palate cleanse your brain. They are fun, upbeat and a lyrical good time.
Thank you for your reaction. You helped me understand why I have become obsessed with Ren over the last few months. Ren is only the second person in my life to waltz through my barriers as if they do not even exist. I married the first one even though as Ren says he was a "wrong'n".
Lovely to see a real human reaction. Thank you.
Excellent reaction man really 👍 Ren's the best storyteller nowadays... But don't worry, Ren talks about society, he's nearly the only one who does it but yeah ... He makes us think ! He makes us want to be better human beings ... The trilogy of Money Game is a must to see and then you have some funnier ones, where Ren will make you laugh out loud 😉 His rabbit hole is so deep, wide and full of masterpieces and each song is different from the others. I'm having a lot of fun to see you continue Ren's journey ! Thanks so much for this fire reaction 🔥😘
I absolutely LOVED your reaction.
I am very happily already suscribed.
❤🙂❤
Like someone else said in the coments you are Emotiallly and intellectually intelligent, Loved your reaction ❤
You are becoming my favorite reactor. Try some of his busking videos with The Big Push for something lighter. He as also done a couple songs with Chinchilla and their voices together are positively haunting. He will surprise you at every turn.
Yes, these are all live and all shot in one take. (Many practices to get ready, one shot final take) And yes, Ren was born in Wales but has lived in Brighton for years.
I agree with some others that you might want to check out some of Ren's lighter side too -- just as amazing without the emotional roller coaster. 😂 The Hunger, Half Time and Losing It are great for him rapping, Back on 74 and Fred Again Mashup for his incredible singing voice, and look for songs from The Big Push for his busking days. Welcome to the Reniverse! 😊
I knew youd be amazing with this one. youvdid not disappoint. Thank you. ❤
Great reaction. You'll be pleased to know Ren does have a few less emotional songs which are just a bit of fun. Not all of them kick you in the head until you're an emotional wreck! They're all absolute works of art though! Jenny and Screech was written after Ren read a news article about a young lad stabbing someone to death and he was moved to create something to address the knife crime problem and we got this absolute masterpiece!
For something else to make you cry I recommend Dominoes - Although there's only a lyric video for that one.
If you like Rap I suggest the hunger.
For a vocal showcase check out the Back on 74/Message in a bottle covers (Single song, it's a mashup of the 2 songs).
The Money game trilogy is a great depiction of the greed culture ruling our lives.
Kujo beat down is fantastic, but I suggest not watching that unless you have watched Ren's video explaining the situation first or you will be very confused.
Also Sick Boi - which is the song which started the whole controversy around the Kujo Beatdown song.
I noticed you wondering who Samuel is that was mentioned at the start of Screech's tale - He's the cinematographer who has shot a lot of Ren's videos (Hi Ren, and all 3 of these included) and a big part of the reason these videos are so compelling. If it's a Ren and Sam video you know it's going to be special!
You got this right, it was hard to watch you go through this one. But thanks for being your honest self. Ren always hits hard- whether emotionally, or vibes.
Great reaction, looking forward to your next one 👍🏻
And don't you dare watch more Ren videos without us! We're here for your amazing reactions
16:34. We all felt this moment. And this is the exact moment we all try to recapture by watching 100 different reactions. Yours is tops.
Welcome to the world of Ren, roads in this world are hard full of confusion, pain and hard emotions, but in the same time you will always feel the hope going side by side with you giving you great strength through the path to the pure truth! In this world greed will let you to the darkest forest, alone and lost but the humanity and empathy will lead you to the most beautiful fields full with spring flowers and butterflies where you can live in community full with happiness and light, where darkness never prevails! Ren is the voice of our souls!❤
It is Brighton. Ren is Brighton based has lived there for about 10 years.
This song is absolutely heart wrenching. This man is a genius.
Greetings from central Canada, new subscriber here, an old bloke who's been around live music for the whole half-century I've been on this planet. I too have recently been introduced to Ren and am also blown away. I've seen a lot, and I mean a LOT, of music in my life, basically growing up around music festivals and the like, but Ren is a one of a kind, nevermind once in a generation, once in the species of humanity kind of musician. I'm looking forward to going further down the rabbithole with you!
FWIW, I am trying to (re) learn guitar (haven't played in 20+ years, and now have early onset parkinson symptoms making it difficult, nonetheless i persist), anyways, Ren plays in 'Drop D', you might've noticed, and as you've commented on his atypical style, he's self-taught, so that's probably why his style is so unique. I imagine I may develop some unique styles as well as I continue to try to drill the muscle memory back into my now quirky fingers.
If you feel like taking a brief break from the Renniverse, and like watching incredible guitar talent, may I humbly suggest to check out the video of Tina S playing Moonlight Sonata on electric guitar. The video is almost ten years old now, and she's now lead guitarist in a metal band :)
Thank you for the message. I have spent a lot of time in Vancouver as my wife's family moved there from South Africa.
Thank you for the recommendation, after I have finished REN I might put the rection on the channel.
What a fantastic reaction .. thank you for sharing this with us ❤
Loved your reaction and your insight! I look forward to jumping down the Ren rabbit hole with you. Been there since early 2023 and haven't come out of it since.
He has many upbeat songs like 'What you want' where he's just having fun. And he has catchy songs with a very deep meaning like 'Seven sins'. If you want him singing an amazing duet with another fantastic artist called Chinchilla, I'd recommend 'How to be me (live)'. You'll be amazed at how versatile he is.
Love from Germany 💜
No matter how many times I hear this it still gets to me. Ten is definitely a musical genius.
I left a comment on the other channel, but figure I'd help the algorithm. I'm here for the ride m8. 💛🤘🤙✌️
Awesome, thanks Jeffrey :)
You’ve quickly become one of my favorite Ren reactors. Thank you for making your videos for us, mate! Much love from Chicago❤
Awe thank you so much, really means a lot to me
I have a hard time watching this trilogy and still I do bcs I need to see how it affects others. Ren has so many amazing songs for different reasons and you don’t have to do all the heavy ones right away. Obviously Su*c*de and For Joe are so good and so sad. ❤But for example Power and Loosing it are fun. 😊 Back on 74 is a completely different vibe ❤ he does all the genres ❤
Thank you for your reaction 🥰
Brilliant reaction, thank you!!!
💛💛💛
Excellent reaction! So glad you watched without pausing 😊 Your expressions were pretty much as mine were when I first saw this. Just mindblown. Really looking forward to your Ren journey ❤
I totally agree with you take on the story and I reacted the same way x Ren is a genius x song writer, poet, rapper his talents are never ending. Raw talent x
You are a new favorite reactor of mine. I never say that. You’re good. I’m home bound with autoimmune. I watch Ren reactions everyday. Trying to help Ren lift ships, as it were. I do it for Ren. You sir, are a pleasure to watch! Thanks 😉❤️
As a south shields lass, cant say how happy i am to find a local lad giving our boi some love. Feel like im fighting on my own up here for him lol
I want to give you a big hug. ❤❤❤ We know, trust me, we renegades know what you felt there... ❤❤❤ Lots of love from a german renegade. You are awesome!!
Great reaction, you picked up and remembered a lot for the first time through. 👏... Well done.
Another superb,heart felt reaction. As I watched you, I was thinking "you don't know whats about to hit you" and then before I knew it I was crying along with you. I've never seen a better demonstration or explanation of generational abuse, but Ren reaches in and rips your heart out. Your enthusiasm and praise is so sincere, welcome to the world of Ren❤️
Amazing reaction to this masterpiece! Ren is truly the most incredible artist. Can’t wait to watch you react to more of his brilliance 💜💜
This is always a tough one to get through. Your reaction is one most people have. A rollercoaster of emotions but also realizing what a masterpiece this is. He tackles the tough subjects in many of his pieces. I respect him for that.
❤One of the best reactions for this. Your understanding of the themes was masterful. Many people totally miss the plot.
COMPOSURE. 😂
This is a tough, but important, watch. He sums up intergenerational abuse and trauma in a concise, painfully beautiful way. It's incredibly affecting and definitely pulls you in almost instantly.
Great reaction! Oh, and I do believe it was filmed in Brighton. For some performances that are more fun and upbeat, you could check out him busking with his band the Big Push.
I will check out his new stuff tomorrow and then do something of his that's a little more upbeat lol
Superb reaction! Thank you for being emotional & real with us. ❤
I have this vinyl by Ren and it is my favorite of all his work!
It's great to hear the reaction from another Brit. Your one of the best reactors to Ren that i've found. I think some of it is a Brit thing as we understand bits that others who didn't grow up here wouldn't.
I got to the end of Jenny's Tale and had to comment..
Intense is yet to come.. My partner got me onto Ren, and I have never looked back.. I effectively work 18 hour days, but every night, I unwind to at least 1 Ren Reaction.. You Sir, are one of the wholesome, honest and true reactors I've seen in a long time.. Keep it up!
BTW - the names Jenny & James in the UK are used like John & Jane Doe in the US. Let that sink in. ✌🏽
You are one of my favourite reactors to Ren , your reaction was amazing! Ren is incredible, I can't wait to see you react to more , sickboi, kujobeat down , money game1,2,3 , for Joe , Mackay , the hunger , so many more 😊
I love your Ren reactions, I can tell you truly appreciate his art. When you said you knew what to expect from Ren I let out a loud singular HA! I think when you get further down the rabbit hole you’ll find that statement funny too, other than excellence and creativity he will surprise you over and over again, in the best way
Been waiting for this post 🎉 Settling in to watch! 😳
You nailed it! Ditto to the many comments already posted. So thrilled to witness your journey with Ren! 💖🙋♀️
I've been waiting for this! Love your reaction and reflection ❤
Transfixed!! Exactly! Great reaction. Here for your Ren journey. Subbed.
Oh I just love your reaction to this, beautifully raw and honest, good spot on Brighton too, even tho songs set in london it was filmed in Brighton where Ren lives.
Awesome reaction! 🔥❤️✌️
Theres a brand new song dropping tomorrow at 7pm. Its the first song off the new album that he recorded before his health dip recently.
It's wonderful watching you fall down the Ren rabbit hole. You 100% get our boy. Thank you for such an honest and respectful reaction
Loving your reactions to Ren 😍 Ren is an amazing artist keep reacting and enjoying his music. Suggestion for next reaction.... 'For Joe' ( its on the keyboard)
Excellent reaction! Ren brings the emotions out! Subbing now! ❤
Great reaction. I know exactly how you felt at the end. Genius is the word.
Utter shock and awe...amazing artist
Second REN reaction of yours and already I'm hitting like before you've even pressed play. 😆
A classic tale of generational violence...London happens to be the place in this story (filmed in Brighton, you are correct, with his friend Samuel Palvey) but I've not heard confirmation from Ren or his community page that this is a factual story but WE KNOW and many of us have LIVED similar stories (HUGS)..I believe Ren has the tremendous skill of feeling the pulse of society at large and in particular, the underbelly of it. He's simply magnificent in my view. He touches on MANY genres in his music catalog and there's a bit of something for everyone. Enjoy! New sub.
My brother lives in Brighton and I have spent at of time there, that's where I got the vibe from.
He is an amazing story teller and I can not wait to keep going down the rabbit hole
@@TunesandChill thanks for the reply. Very kind of you. Did you happen to upload this twice? I saw it come across my feed again and this comment isn't on that one. but whatever lol...doesn't really matter was just curious. Best of luck to you and your channel.
@@Lulabee2024 Hi, this ismy new music channel but I also have a movie and tv show reaction channel. I have told them all to come over to this one so the first few releases will be on both then I am going to just upload them solely to this channel :)
