Lovely reaction Britt. As you say, Ren is showing us by example that vulnerability is courage and strength and NOT as so many see it, weakness. We should all take a leaf from that book and one by one, person by person we will find healing and connection.
It doesn't Matter, Ren or anyone Connected to Ren never ever put in a Copyright claim but 3rd Party Scammers do, and anyone who puts in a claim against a Video is automatically believed by RUclips and the Video gets Blocked, multiple reactors have had Ren Videos subjected to Copyright Strikes, because RUclips never investigates these False Claims
Yes! Open it up! This is exactly the interaction Ren is looking for. The man is a generous genius who is all about supporting fellow community members.
@@lufc1919ers Sorry Dude but you have no idea how a Copyright Strike works, for a reactor it's still a huge headache to get a strike even if it's a false one, Rens Team and Ren can't react quickly to all these false claims and even if the reactor has proof of fair use and permission from the Artist, RUclips still makes it a ballache and time consuming to appeal
@@guitarmuscle6968 You may be right but this is Ren's own words: Feel free to press 'disupte claim' and itll all be approved and get rid of the copyright claim for you.
He wrote a song called Freckled Angels shortly after Joe passed away as a tribute to him. It’s actually on Rens album called Freckled Angel. It’s a beautiful tribute.❤
“Some will die before they live” so true. I salute my lost brothers who were lost in combat, never having the chance to live their full life, get married, have children and grandchildren and the blessing to grow old with their life long spouse. We fought together and I was blessed to come home to live that life for you my brothers. 🙏🙏🙏
I’m so happy you did this. It’s as if he built a bridge to connect suicide to freckled angels. A mighty fine bridge indeed. I won’t even go into the piano playing. Is there anything this young man cannot do? Such a gift to my ears and my mind. Ren.
You are smart, empathic and you always find the right words to express what you think and how you feel about a song- just totally on point. I really love watching your reaction videos, thank you so much!
Lovely reaction . I have just purchased the Freckled Angel CD and it is absolutely fantastic in many different ways! Ren is such an amazing person to have in this world and people listening to his messages, so inspirational, again in many different ways!
I purchased the bundle (freckled angels, demo volumes 1 and 2 and the Jenny, screech tri.) I play them in the car and turned them into mp3s and listen while doing chores. I love listening to real music again.
As a person that has had autoimmune illnesses for 32 ,years. I've had so many talks with myself of giving up, praying for strength, and well being exposed and vulnerable to others out of need. As humans I feel we need each other. When you are chronically ill and times desperate it breaks you a bit. But you persevere and fight for those that are around you, your loved ones. It's harder for me to see what my illness does to my family. So over my time at least I believe I've become more compassionate to others. For living in constant pain I know how intensely it hurts and I would not wish it on my worst enemy. If we could all try our best, at least most days just imagine that world
Just caught up with your reaction Britt. You're right, it is incredible to share vulnerability in this way. I love the flow of this song from the dark event of Joe's dying through to the beautiful accolade to Joe, Freckled Angels. All linked with beautiful piano. A very special song.
Beautiful tribute, never gets easier even though I have watched his literally hundreds of times, I can’t imagine what REN has gone through on this alone 🖤
The song is great, the messages are so good, the way he expresses himself and the way he uses his words are just amazing and breathtaking, also let’s talk about where he was at playing the piano! That site was awesome
Ren’s genius is incredible. The lyrics and that piano got to me. I lost my best childhood friend to drugs and eventual suicide. I still miss my friend. 😢
I can't get out of the Ren rabbit hole. I don't want to. Every genre he sings isn't my style, but Ren is my style so I find my musical taste getting a little broader because of the content...
What a lovely reaction video to an amazing song by a very unique artist. You are so beautiful, in every single way. ( on the outside but more importantly ; on the inside ) You listen so intently and digest everything that is being expressed so tenderly by Ren in this amazing tribute to Joe, who, ( through Ren's incredible ability to touch us and communicate on a universal level ) we all feel we knew. We certainly feel Ren's pain and we must all take time out to realise that many people are going through this very same pain, every single second of every single day. Ren ( and reactors such as yourself ) are helping so many people through tough times ... and it is a beautiful thing to behold. God Bless you 🙏
I understand why reactors don’t want to know anything about a song, but in Ren’s case I feel differently. Many songs are so specific that the reactions aren’t nearly as impactful if the backstory isn’t known. Hi Ren, Freckled Angels, Chalk Outlines, How to Be Me, Sick Boi, Suicide…all works of art regardless, but the lyricism is so poignant when you know where he’s coming from. Beautiful reaction ❤️
Love the realness Ren brings out in people. Even though a hard life and pain speaks “the truth” its a fragile State of mind. He has my biggest respect, but never Wish for that realness…pain is the way to it….I can relate🙏❤️ Sometimes were better off just living in a boble❤️
"Freckled Angels" is the title track of his last album. It's a song he wrote and sang at Joe's memorial. This song is a mashup of that and the end of "Suic!de". He also has a song "Dominoes" that isn't specifically regarding Joe and I didn't hear music from that song, but he touches on the concept here. Since I don't believe in an afterlife, when he sings about Joe being an "angel", I take it as a reference to the impact and memories of Joe using poetic language. Anyway, it makes more sense when he says they "last the longest" since angels are supposedly eternal. I don't mean to debate the subject. I'm just saying that we can ALL relate to Ren's songs as humans regardless of our worldview.
Ren shows humanity and existence in a stripped down non filtered way. For bars, for concept, for getting a team that can produce the quality of content... he's the first since Lamar that really hit me in the last few years. Generational talent is not a decade.. its a in your lifetime talent.. Thinking he is my Otis, my Eddie, my Cornell, my Etta and Aretha. My C Robertson and my R Plant. [edited because I type funny and don't proof read until the after sent]
Absolutely love your reaction, you speak words of wisdom and empathy. Suspect Ren would rather folk open their minds to their true selves, rather than put their lives n the hands of a rock’n’roll band. Your uninvited reaction next. 👍🏽☘️👍
The love of my life drank himself to death. Our relationship had ended but he was still one of my best friends. The 1st time that I heard this song I thought "There is more than one way to 'jump'" I couldn't save him. Now I just miss him. 💔
He’s better than a pastor as he speaks truth. Without any threat of believe my words or you’ll burn. The Pastor carrot and stick for ever and ever unfaltering The philosopher. This seems to be representative of reality. And if we find out we’re wrong we’ll adapt our beliefs
This is just the last section of “Suic!de”, the middle is new, and end is the chorus from “Freckled Angels” (another song he wrote for Joe and played at his funeral).
9:08 Just my thoughts on your comment, but I believe that's exactly what he is already doing, just through his music. If done properly, it has the power to help heal. Which ties back to what you pointed out at 7:12. To me, this is why everyone seems to gravitate to his music, and many do not know or understand this and that this is the reason. We ALL have trauma and things that we need to release. Love your reactions by the way. ❤
I always say Ren makes music for adults and I think he is so good at it because he's actually served his apprenticeship, not only in music but in life aswel. He isn't some bubbled kid that thinks they know it all n thinks they have the right to tell "normal" everyday working people people what they should think or believe.
Ren has said that he is not religious but likes the language of religion. Maybe he is doing God’s work accidentally, or unknowingly. As a religious person myself, I believe that God does work through other people sometimes.
I like the reaction. But you are getting views from an original artists work... At least let people see it in full not hit with less than 50% opacity. Their work is driving your reaction videos so make em full opacity.
Lovely reaction Britt. As you say, Ren is showing us by example that vulnerability is courage and strength and NOT as so many see it, weakness. We should all take a leaf from that book and one by one, person by person we will find healing and connection.
thank you so much! I'm glad you enjoyed the video!!
Simply, you cannot have courage without vulnerability...❤
Ren for governor of the galazy❤
Lovely reaction! You don't need to worry about obscuring Ren's videos, he's an independent artist who's happy for reactors to show his work.
Everyone like his comment so she sees it^^^^

"He's doing God work". Felt this.
In 42 years of life, I've never experienced an artist like Ren. He is a breath of fresh air.
Ren’s genius is incredible. The lyrics and that piano got to me. I lost my best childhood friend to drugs and eventual suicide. I still miss my friend. 😢
I'm so sorry for your loss! Ren is truly incredible!
((Hugs))
@@inuchan74 aww thank you!
Another beautiful reaction Britt... Pls continue spreading Ren's music. Thank you. RIP Joe Hughes
Glad you enjoyed the video!
Yes, we raised approximately 21k for the RNLI. It was awesome to come together and do that for them. Glad you touched on that part.
That is awesome!
I can't get out of the Ren rabbit hole. I don't want to. Every genre he sings isn't my style, but Ren is my style so I find my musical taste getting a little broader because of the content...
he is amazing!
What you said about striving to be vulnerable really hit.
Wow thanks for introducing me to this beautiful artist. So talented with a depth beyond his years 😢
Thank you for supporting REN, hes such a pained yet beautiful soul.
Beautiful reaction, thank you so much!!
thank you for watching! Glad you enjoyed it!!
He’s doing humanist work, why bypass the first step and jump to the end. ❤
Watching the beauty of this wash over you is so engaging...so enriching to soul and spirit.

thank you for reacting to this beautiful and powerful song R.I.P. Joe Hughes ❤❤❤
thank you for watching! I'm glad you enjoyed the video!
I smile warmly bright 🙏
"Some will die before they live..." There is still a funeral if the child is old enough. The second one was able to save.
The love of my life drank himself to death. Our relationship had ended but he was still one of my best friends. The 1st time that I heard this song I thought "There is more than one way to 'jump'" I couldn't save him. Now I just miss him. 💔

Sub’d today. You shine like a lamp on a hill. Don’t even need to see your other reactions to know you’re gonna be a new favorite.
Awesome video another great awesome reaction by you again like always thank you so much for sharing your video with us Britt.🤗👍
Glad you enjoyed the video!!
This is just the last section of “Suic!de”, the middle is new, and end is the chorus from “Freckled Angels” (another song he wrote for Joe and played at his funeral).
What an authentic reaction.
Hits right in the solar plexus pulls right at the heart
truly!
I agree that he is brave and we need more of that in this world. Lovely reaction. Thank you
thanks for watching! glad you enjoyed it!!
I’m glad you read it and know the story. This song and Su!c!de touched me more than his other songs…..and they all touch me….
"... who reside in our hearts..." what an amazing double meaning...
right!!
He is raw emotion, honest and a talent that's a once in a lifetime kind, i love this man!!
he is amazing!
Must say you are really great at this. Also,you definitely listen to it.
thank you so much!
This song touched my soul.
same !

agreed!
I enjoyed this reaction very much.
thank you so much!
Love the reaction!
I always say Ren makes music for adults and I think he is so good at it because he's actually served his apprenticeship, not only in music but in life aswel.
He isn't some bubbled kid that thinks they know it all n thinks they have the right to tell "normal" everyday working people people what they should think or believe.
This one always shreds me.
As I see it, it's actually a compilation of the parts of songs that have been about Joe. A mash up of Joe related versus.
Well said reaction comments. Totally SPOT ON!
thank you so much!
Touching reaction, just subscribed.
Freckeled Angels makes me think of Robbie William's song Angels
Another great one if you haven't heard it.....
Thanks for watching! I'm glad you enjoyed the video and thank you for subscribing! I will keep your suggestion in mind, thanks!
I told you... Ren makes people feel....well you know now.
Yeah.
yeah. lol
Preacher of our time
Yes this is pretty much the same song about his friend taking his own life, but the way he did it they weren’t able to find his body
I think you’re right ❤
How ridiculous is it that we cant say the word of such an important mental health issue
Ren is music 🎵🎶❤🙏
Nice one Britt. For anyone wondering, in the UK, 'double Dutch' means nonsense or gibberish.
thanks for letting me know!
Superb narrative..
I can't sit through this song and not cry
it's a touching song! so good!
Listening to REN is like breathing fresh air after having inhaled pollution for far too long.
love this!
Blessings 🙏🇬🇧....and tunes🎵. Keep going >>>>>> ✨
Thanks for watching! Glad you enjoyed the video!
Respect
I haven't seen you do Dominoes or Jessica yet ❤
No need for the copyright stuff with Ren!
Ren has said that he is not religious but likes the language of religion. Maybe he is doing God’s work accidentally, or unknowingly. As a religious person myself, I believe that God does work through other people sometimes.
For the algo.

I like the reaction. But you are getting views from an original artists work... At least let people see it in full not hit with less than 50% opacity. Their work is driving your reaction videos so make em full opacity.
