@@VocalCitizen Yes Don't let anyone pull you down! I didn't become strong until I was out of the situation. That is 'spiritually/emotionally' strong. Physically I am a train wreck lol. I adore these singers (and reactors) that reaffirm my inner strength.
I had to keep reminding myself to come back to this when I next watched RUclips in a browser so I wasn't one finger typing on my phone; I really wanted to get my thoughts across clearly. I've thought since I first saw Chinchilla perform this that, as well as the more conspicuously clear "keys in my knuckles" line that all women can relate to, there's a less obvious one in there, one that's even more brutally profound. I remember back when I was studying A Streetcar Named Desire for English Literature learning something interesting about a scene where Blanche is screaming/threatening to scream "Fire!". We learnt that back then and for quite some time since, perhaps still even now, that when attacked by a rapist a woman should scream "Fire!" or "Murder!" instead of "Rape!" because both of the first two are more likely to attract someone willing to help than the latter. Which is all kinds of sad in and of itself. I may be completely wrong but I've always thought that that is what Chinchilla's line about screaming "murder! so you can never hurt no-one" - implying that they'll have been caught and locked up because someone actually came to help - is about.
Fantastic reaction! The original music video is COMPLETELY different, and a bop. Don't miss her criminally under watched (and reacted to) LITTLE GIRL GONE LIVE (REQUIEM).
Oh thanks... I appreciate you stopping in. I'm pretty much married to the notion that I will exhaust Chinchilla's catalogue for all YOU people. Save that tiny playlist. It's about to go OFFFF.
Hello! Yes Ren, now Chinchilla! I have reacted like you! Tears. Stop and hear again. Swoon and wish to start my musical life over again! But alas, I am older now, getting on stage seems a bit silly. Joni & Kate Bush I filled my mind and soul with for so many years! But OH! Chinchilla! So fresh, so lively, and so many other delighting words. You know. Thank you! 💙
Superb reaction, the Chinchilla effect is a thing! Best compliment I heard about her was from Ren, he said she's him in a female form. You know he's referring to her creativity, diversity, originality. If you haven't reacted to How to be me, with Ren, you are in for an absolute treat! I love her Elements song lyrics video, very cleverly done and outstanding song.
I can do Elements, because I've not heard it. I know every millisecond of How to be Me, in all its available versions. Thanks so much for watching and taking the time to drop into my comments. 🔥
Thanks for sharing your personal experience. A hug for you for finding strength and moving on to solidify a soul that obviously stands with intelligence, integrity, and a no BS honesty. ..."I like your style"...hehe. So very much enjoyed your reaction to this stunning track. As with all of your previous uploads I've viewed, I am especially tickled to see another attuned listener perceive the level of talent Chinchilla is bringing; so consistently!!! Thus far in my exploration, I have yet to hear a track or see a video of her's that has not left me wholly impressed. While Ren is certainly a refreshing tide lifting all ships...Chinchilla is Venus on the f-ing half shell rising above the waves..ASIDE from her amazing voice...she is writing and fully producing or otherwise in full control of all aspects of her productions... I recommend everything...but as already noted.... don't miss her badass statements in "Little Girl Gone" (a vid she personally funded) "Cut You Off," her new one "Caps Lock" and the not-so lyric video "Elements"..... for a very very cheeky Chinchilla...ha ha...some day get to a track on her first (I think) album "One Time." (For a true hoot...after you react to this, go visit fellow reactor "Brain Squeeze Reactions"....his reaction to this song was one of the most hilarious and honest moments I have yet to witness on RUclips...great guy too.) Enough...I ramble and ramble.....Thanks again...looking forward to your future uploads and the merch too!!!
I'm the Queen of Rambling... don't just assume you can step into MY realm and out-ramble me, sir... This will be a candy week for you, in terms of Chinchilla, as every song you listed will be up on my channel over the next week. THANKS so much for watching and taking the time to comment. 🫠💙
On point my dear on point, we were always aware of the keys in the knuckles, protection just to make it hurt and get some DNA if attacked, yeah....that last bit was added too on the spur of this performance not on original as my understanding goes, but yes we relate 1000% yeah that bit hit me real hard cause it hits home sooooo close. New sub VocalCitizen and i'm running through your Chinny's and enjoying my 3rd of your reactions this evening.
People will say in the comments that this is about her record company. But really, this live version especially, hits about every way we are victimized. From taught "meekness". The inability to say no. The demonization of women's anger. The inability to do mundane, everyday things without fear. I feel and heard everything you said. ❤ I explained Chinchilla to a friend the other day as a mix between a young Grace Slick, Tori Amos, and Beyonce.
awwww, see? You brought up Tori Amos. "A Knight Without Armor" is fundamental reading. EXCELLENT comparisons, all of them, but you nailed TORI. Kudos...
That was badass! Your story, OMFG, talk about scary you’re lucky to have come out of that! Little girl gone is my favourite song of hers, absolutely badass!
Little Girl Gone will be filmed this weekend. And my story is, sadly, like so many other women's tales of assault. At least my instinct kicked in and allowed me to escape before the actual ACT... FFS
@@VocalCitizen I’m sure that you will love it, she’s a real badass in it! Good job your self preservation kicked in, the world wouldn’t be the same without your badass personality 😆
“Through chaos comes instinct” quoted for truth! Thank you for sharing your story, glad you’re ok and came out stronger. Like Ren, Chinchilla has a way of tapping into repressed sht. And lately everything Chinny’s been releasing has been cathartic, anthemic, or iconic - sometimes all 3 of these at once! 🙌
I have to disagree: I don't think Chinchilla is "performing" (even though I used that exact word in the reaction). I think she EMBODIES the music and her soul is visibly truthful. And we get to witness it.
Thank you so very much. There is a metric f*ckton of amazing men out there. Sadism and cruelty are individual choices. I get so angry with women who cluster the good with the evil. We as women expect to be judged on our own merits, not the actions of parasitic, cheating, lying, manipulative women. It's a two-way street... #MENareDOPE
I am so sorry that you went through such a terribly scary experience and thank goodness you made it out alive. I hope you got that scumbag in his boy parts!! Hugs❤️
Chinchilla is a vocal beast for sure and this is just one example of her talent. I'm so sorry you went thru that, but I can see it made you a stronger person and glad you fought back! Hopefully your shoes hit him in a soft spot if you know what I mean!!!
No clue... but I wasn't the one bleeding, so there's that... So many many MANY women experience assault from a stranger... I count myself lucky that it didn't coalesce for the motherf*cker....
I knew you would love it, I knew it! :o) Debora, I dig your style as much as Chinchilla's singing! It's 2 am, I should be sleeping now, but no. You just drop such a incredible reaction! :o)) Thank you so much! 💙 (And of course I've written that long before end. So now - as an ovarian sister who knows - I send you a hug. I'm really sorry that happened to you. And so glad you wasn't physically hurt.)
It's an unnecessary situation that WAY too many women are forced to endure. I have no friggin' CLUE if that's what Chinchilla was implying, but the sh!t hit ME that way. I'm so pleased you enjoy my content. NOW GO TO BED.
Great reaction! Never apologize for your trauma. It's not your fault, and MANY of us can relate. I do believe you might be ready for Little Girl Gone. 😎
I AM ready for Little Girl Gone... the question is: ARE YOU READY? Because I'm filming it tomorrow and it'll be up shortly after that. Thanks for watching! Go save my Chinchilla Reactions playlist...
I saw in an interview, she said the she thought up the "keys in you fingers like I have to" during this performance. She is so present in her performance that she can move with her feelings and it sounds like it eas always meant to be there.
I don't know if you watch any other reactors but I think you, out of all the others I've seen, would relate the most to what I saw happen on Crow Reactions' channel when she started watching Ren and Chinchilla's live cover of Sexual Healing. Chinchilla belted out the first notes and Crow Reactions screamed "SHUDDAAAP!!" and paused the video because it was just SO MUCH. If you get the time do check it out.
@@VocalCitizen yes! They're so addictive, even though I don't really understand why. I'm really, really enjoying yours; they're so much fun because you get so invested in the song and artist and it's a fantastically interactive experience. And I really appreciate the intelligence and detail of your commentary. I can't wait to see what you choose to react to next :)
This s such a BOSS LEVEL comment, doll! You just made me blush, and I'm f*cking alone! 🫠 Thank you endlessly for watching. Elements reaction drops later today....
@@VocalCitizen then the camera pans back and you see she's The Queen... Elements by Chinchilla is a showcase for her talents worth a look 🔥👌.. ✌️❤️🏴.
You'll also enjoy the official video of "Fingers"; it reveals more facets of Chinchilla and differs from the live version. Chinchilla is magnificent, and I also love how unapologetically she is herself. - Thank you for sharing this reaction and story about the line referencing the keys. When I was little, my mom would hold her keys between her knuckles, and through her, I felt some of what she experienced. Growing up, she always pointed out experiences that I, as a guy, never would have noticed or known to exist. ❤
Thank you for your comment. I admire your mother for educating you as ALL young men should be. And YOU should be commended for paying attention to that education. Chinchilla is a gem.
I thank you, Megs. Welcome to my madness... TONS more Chinchilla coming across the next 10 days. Save that playlist (it's in order) and I'll see you tomorrow (since CAPS LOCK will be up).
LOL Told you this one would blow you away I knew it would get you in the feels she is amazing her artistry is on full display here. I am so glad you did this thanks for getting to it.
Holy crap. What a story. I'm glad you made it out okay. If you had blood on your boots I wouldn't want to see what the dude ended up looking like. Some people suck unfortunately.
This is, hands down, one of the best performances of a song I've seen in my 63 years. I've seen this video probably a hundred times or more, and it still blows me away every time. The costume, the voice (dear lord, what a voice!), the acting - it's all just pure perfection, and the piano accompaniment is sublime. Just one little example of what I mean about her acting - at the very end of the song she gives a little double head-bob, like an automaton winding down, perfectly completing the whole music-box ballerina vibe of the song. It's a tiny thing, but it conveys so much. Even the costume echoes this, just like a ballerina's tutu, but as imagined by Tim Burton. That line at the end "put your keys in your knuckles like I have to" is not in the original song. She gives the story of where that came from in one of her interviews (which are all well worth watching, she's such a lovely person). Briefly, she was working with the pianist to adapt the song for live performance, and they were trying various ways of finishing it. In one of those attempts she just blurted that line out, and the pianist pounced and said "That's it, that's the way to end the song." Love your reaction - I'm appalled by your own testimony of what women have to put up with, and relieved that you managed to escape. It's a harsh truth - some men are scum. I hope you're in a much better place now. Subscribed, and I see I have a huge Ren and Chinchilla reaction backlog to catch up on! Time for a deep dive into VocalCitizen.
I appreciate greatly your whole comment. The automation wind-down analogy really struck something in my brain, necessitating an immediate review. VOILA! You're a sharp one. I respect it. Thank you so much for watching and taking the time to type out a stimulating comment. I don't hold on to past trauma. My brain doesn't do that. 🤷🏼♀️ I have playlists. Go check them out.
@@VocalCitizen Thank you for that lovely response. I'm not that sharp, unfortunately - it took me a lot of views to spot the head-bob, and it was only then that it clicked into place that she was doing a music box ballerina thing. That's just one person's take, of course. Others have described it as having a circus ringmaster vibe, and I can totally see that as well. Chinchilla is layers upon layers. She's beautiful, articulate, funny, quirky and insanely talented. And to be completely honest, I *might* just be a wee bit in love with her! 🤣 Have a wonderful day.
Chinchilla really is something else isn't she. Shares a lot of traits that Ren does - certainly in the way she captivates and draws you in and holds your attention - something you are born with. In real life, she comes across as a real sweetheart. You might want to check out an interview she did with Chris Liepe on his channel. She also joined The Fairy Voice Mother for a live joint reaction to this song - that is on The Fairy Voice Mother's channel. Loving following your journey.
#obsessedwithChinchilla I will definitely check out the interview. Thanks for telling me. We have some dope merch up now, if you wanna go have a look: www.redbubble.com/people/VocalCitizen/shop?asc=u
Definitely one of the greatest songs in the world.❤ I read somewhere that her old management didn't like her exalted outfits. So this outfit is a kind of F finger to them. What a terrible story of yours. It's great that you can handle it so well today. 🫂❤
Everyone needs to hear this song. It's vital. I appreciate your words, and I'm pleased to say that my inner beast doesn't allow me to dwell, once a thing has happened. I made it out (thanks to INSTINCT, not myself LOL) and it's added a facet to my core. I file away tragedy and refer to it in perilous situations. One cannot UN-BAKE a cake, despite how it came out. I believe we are here to evolve and grow as individuals, to take our collected experiences into the Great Unknown. Adversity is as important as the water in the stream, which shapes the stones over which it flows across time. We are in a state of constant flux and change. The end result upon Death is who we ultimately are as individuals.
I always LOVE your reactions. You are an incredibly strong woman. Keep up the great job. You will love "little girl gone". After you watch the official music video, check out the great stripped down acoustic version. Like Ren she sometimes releases 2 versions of the same song. Btw, I know of 2 reaction channels that have had her on as a guest, so I think you should go for it and make a request. You will never know what will happen. If you want so happy music to react to after this, maybe try "1990es" by Ren or "Inner Ninja" by Classified (it's obvious you have one of those in you!!!).
HAHA my inner ninja is kind of a b!tch, but I do love her. I'm so pleased you like my content, Rodger. That makes my insides all happy! TONS more Chinchilla coming this weekend (and into next week). Stay tuned, doll face.
Okay this is my first time hearing this song and seeing this video and holy fuck balls her visual performance was as good as her performance. It was a piece of art. I think that between her and Ren. they are redefining modern music. It’s like a new evolution in music and I cannot wait to see where this leads in the future music needs to change. It’s essential to growth.
I like the cut of your jib. Instant follow. And this song always gives me Chinchills. Her delivery and vocals and lyrics are always top notch. I’m so sorry you had to experience that horrible incident.
What wasn't surprising when I quoted this in the comments when it dropped with a 'IYKYK ❤️🔥? Sadly, the sheer number of ❤️🔥 from women in return. What was surprising? Again, sadly, the number of men who.. 1. First, didn't get it. 2. Second, after someone, somewhere had explained it to them, the sheer number of men who denied that "that was a thing". Subscribed. ❤
Thank you so much! I appreciate you taking the time to comment. I do have a Chinchilla Reactions playlist (short but growing). Do consider saving that. We just opened a merch store VocalCitizen.redbubble.com and are about to have some other cool features/memberships for your consideration. I look forward to seeing you along the way. Don't be hesitant to reach out. 💜💃🏼💜
The way I was understanding the line about keys in the knuckles in the song is her giving the guy a warning that he should walk around with his keys in his hands because he'll need to protect himself from her because she's coming for him. But that concept is something that all women can relate to because women know that it only takes one man to ruin their life in the most horrifying ways and we'll do what we can to protect ourselves from experiencing that.
Great reaction to a powerful song! The first Chinchilla song I listened to and I related in the most delicious way, especially to the keep your keys in your knuckles like I have to line. Check out MF Diamond music video for a lighter song! 13:42
@VocalCitizen they are the ONE band I've ever sprung for the meet n greet for. Unfortunately it was post/mid covid so you can imagine the change in dynamic.
Good morning from London 👋. Just having breakfast with you my beautiful human ❤️👍. Please try Chinchilla's ELEMENTS lyric video or FABULOUS or LITTLE GIRL GONE REQUIEM LIVE for a dark different vibe from 🎵🎶🍯this phenomenal young lady is doing 🤌🙏💪🐝🍀
I love every word of this comment. Was it an English standard breakfast? Did you eat the toast too? LOL All the songs you listed are coming very soon. Damn, I love my UK fans.. 💕💕💕

Thank you for speaking your Truth. So sorry that happened to you. I have a history of violent trauma involving a gun. Instinct did indeed take over and I was able to get to safety. But I will never forget the sensation of the cold steel against my temple. Just sharing so you, and others, know you're not alone. I was also taught to carry keys between my knuckles. 'Fingers' Live is my favorite of all Chinchilla's performances. I've experienced MANY times and she still gives me chills! You mentioned wanting to see Chinchilla in concert. Perhaps this video of her recent Pink Pop 2024 performance will tide you over until she comes to the US 😃 💖🙋♀️ ruclips.net/video/qeaHH5IURoY/видео.htmlsi=ocbFI0cXWD455-FY
@@VocalCitizen Awesome! FYI: the video is from a channel that's not Chinchilla's. I looked on hers first but didn't see anything posted. She's really in her element on stage. Queen. Goddess. Badass. 🔥💖
I hope a man dosnt have to hqave your back but I am a big sstrong man and I will protect from bad men dont be to affreai there are good mmen dont think men are all bad there are good ones here xx
There ABSOLUTELY ARE fantastic, brave, upstanding men. There are MANY MANY of them. I was raised by one, married another (with whom I am still great friends, although our marriage didn't last beyond a decade). I'm just WAY more cautious and I use a state's CASENET to search for criminal convictions. 😜 Thanks so much for sharing your important thoughts. 💃🏼
Every woman knows what “put your keys in your knuckles like I have to” means. Powerful.
It's all about safety. My mom made my sister and me practice the moves...
Makes me cry everytime I hear it.
😕
@@VocalCitizen This is why I advocate strength training for women.
I always love how emotional this performance makes reactors. It's legit
Yeah… TMI at the end there… lol
The man I would sing this to is now long dead, but all those abused years are consoled by Chinchilla's words.
So, Ally, I take it I was pretty close as to her meaning in the song??

And I really appreciate the intelligence and detail of your commentary. I can't wait to see what you choose to react to next :)
This s such a BOSS LEVEL comment, doll!
You just made me blush, and I'm f*cking alone! 🫠
Thank you endlessly for watching. Elements reaction drops later today....
Great reaction 👌 Always thought the dress shape shadow looks like a pawn in chess... She is a lyrical genius ✌️❤️🏴.
OMFG I wish I had made that comparison on the reaction, because that's exactly what I thought as well... I SEE YOU, SCOTT 👁️👁️
@@VocalCitizen then the camera pans back and you see she's The Queen... Elements by Chinchilla is a showcase for her talents worth a look 🔥👌.. ✌️❤️🏴.
Coming this week...
Welcome to the Club! She is a BEAST and all of her songs/videos/performances are 🔥. Subbing for more reactions to the QUEEN!!
Save that playlist while it's small, lady...
I sense massive growth. Thank you so much for the sub and for commenting. More Chinchilla this weekend!!!
@@VocalCitizen YESSS!!!!
🥹
You'll also enjoy the official video of "Fingers"; it reveals more facets of Chinchilla and differs from the live version. Chinchilla is magnificent, and I also love how unapologetically she is herself.
- Thank you for sharing this reaction and story about the line referencing the keys.
When I was little, my mom would hold her keys between her knuckles, and through her, I felt some of what she experienced. Growing up, she always pointed out experiences that I, as a guy, never would have noticed or known to exist.
❤
Thank you for your comment. I admire your mother for educating you as ALL young men should be. And YOU should be commended for paying attention to that education.
Chinchilla is a gem.
New sub. Love Chinchilla and love your reactions!
I thank you, Megs. Welcome to my madness...
TONS more Chinchilla coming across the next 10 days. Save that playlist (it's in order) and I'll see you tomorrow (since CAPS LOCK will be up).
LOL Told you this one would blow you away I knew it would get you in the feels she is amazing her artistry is on full display here. I am so glad you did this thanks for getting to it.
Yes, of course! TONS more Chinchilla coming. Save my playlist.
🔥🔥🔥💜💜💜
💜
"Ticket for a tour through her brain"..that would be her song and video "Cut You Off". LOL Great reaction once again!
Hey... you're in my playlist, huh?? 💃🏼
We have merch now... take a look if you're interested:

"I just got tears in my eyes and I just got pregnant."
Me: *smashes sub button* 💜
YAY!!! Welcome to my madness...
Holy crap. What a story. I'm glad you made it out okay. If you had blood on your boots I wouldn't want to see what the dude ended up looking like. Some people suck unfortunately.
Indeed...
Another great reaction 👍 several people have mentioned Little girl gone and cut you off 👍 Also try MF Diamond 👍👍😀😀😀😀
Chinchilla's getting a TON of my attention over the next few weeks. It's great to see you in the comments. LET'S ROCK
Chinchilla is the Queen and Ren the King. I feel it’s also for abused women as children. Thank you for sharing your story Debora 🤗🤗
Fantastic reaction
Thank you for watching. Yeah, never told that story before, but... when the music moves ya...
I think you'd love Cut you off!
It's getting done tomorrow. Should be up by Sunday night.
She made that hat herself out of a towel
Crafty crafty...
@@VocalCitizen wait until you see the hat in the video for 'Cut You Off'.. she made it out of _hair.._ and it's awesome sauce!
I hope you enjoy my reaction to it (I'm filming that today).
This is, hands down, one of the best performances of a song I've seen in my 63 years.
I've seen this video probably a hundred times or more, and it still blows me away every time.
The costume, the voice (dear lord, what a voice!), the acting - it's all just pure perfection, and the piano accompaniment is sublime.
Just one little example of what I mean about her acting - at the very end of the song she gives a little double head-bob, like an automaton winding down,
perfectly completing the whole music-box ballerina vibe of the song. It's a tiny thing, but it conveys so much.
Even the costume echoes this, just like a ballerina's tutu, but as imagined by Tim Burton.
That line at the end "put your keys in your knuckles like I have to" is not in the original song.
She gives the story of where that came from in one of her interviews (which are all well worth watching, she's such a lovely person).
Briefly, she was working with the pianist to adapt the song for live performance, and they were trying various ways of finishing it.
In one of those attempts she just blurted that line out, and the pianist pounced and said "That's it, that's the way to end the song."
Love your reaction - I'm appalled by your own testimony of what women have to put up with, and relieved that you managed to escape.
It's a harsh truth - some men are scum. I hope you're in a much better place now.
Subscribed, and I see I have a huge Ren and Chinchilla reaction backlog to catch up on! Time for a deep dive into VocalCitizen.
I appreciate greatly your whole comment. The automation wind-down analogy really struck something in my brain, necessitating an immediate review. VOILA! You're a sharp one. I respect it. Thank you so much for watching and taking the time to type out a stimulating comment.
I don't hold on to past trauma. My brain doesn't do that. 🤷🏼♀️
I have playlists. Go check them out.
@@VocalCitizen Thank you for that lovely response.
I'm not that sharp, unfortunately - it took me a lot of views to spot the head-bob, and it was only then that it clicked into place that she was doing a music box ballerina thing.
That's just one person's take, of course.
Others have described it as having a circus ringmaster vibe, and I can totally see that as well.
Chinchilla is layers upon layers. She's beautiful, articulate, funny, quirky and insanely talented.
And to be completely honest, I *might* just be a wee bit in love with her! 🤣
Have a wonderful day.
If I ever get her ear, I'll be your hype man. 🫡
@@VocalCitizen 🤣🤣
wow, so real and empowering
The song is magic. Painful magic. Necessary magic.
1st timer here. Dig your vibe good video. Congratulations on the lil one. More Chinchilla pls❤
Premiere happening in les than 15 minutes of "KNOW NO".
I'll be in the chat.
Chinchilla really is something else isn't she. Shares a lot of traits that Ren does - certainly in the way she captivates and draws you in and holds your attention - something you are born with.
In real life, she comes across as a real sweetheart. You might want to check out an interview she did with Chris Liepe on his channel. She also joined The Fairy Voice Mother for a live joint reaction to this song - that is on The Fairy Voice Mother's channel.
Loving following your journey.
#obsessedwithChinchilla I will definitely check out the interview. Thanks for telling me.
We have some dope merch up now, if you wanna go have a look:

💖💖
💜
Her vocals are unbelievable 🎉❤
Yeah... you could say that. 🤘🏻💃🏼
Definitely one of the greatest songs in the world.❤
I read somewhere that her old management didn't like her exalted outfits. So this outfit is a kind of F finger to them.
What a terrible story of yours. It's great that you can handle it so well today. 🫂❤
Everyone needs to hear this song. It's vital.
I appreciate your words, and I'm pleased to say that my inner beast doesn't allow me to dwell, once a thing has happened. I made it out (thanks to INSTINCT, not myself LOL) and it's added a facet to my core. I file away tragedy and refer to it in perilous situations. One cannot UN-BAKE a cake, despite how it came out.
I believe we are here to evolve and grow as individuals, to take our collected experiences into the Great Unknown. Adversity is as important as the water in the stream, which shapes the stones over which it flows across time. We are in a state of constant flux and change. The end result upon Death is who we ultimately are as individuals.
Loved your reaction ❤ Im sorry you had to go through that traumatic experience but glad you found the strength to escape ❤️
Well, I thank you... but the credit goes to my primal instinct, not Deborah herself.
Loved your reaction, subbed!
Thank you. This song is still burned on my brain.
Sometimes, when I'm truly moved, I share...
Thank you for the sub!!!
Not on the road to 4000, on the road to a milly :)
From your lips (keyboard?! 😂) to God's ears...
She's something else, isn't it.
Indeed....
Next do Chinchillas new visualizer video for CAPS LOCK❣️❣️❣️❣️
Check the Chinchilla Reactions playlist... they're in order. CAPS LOCK is there and more to come. Save that sh!t 💃🏼😜💥
I always LOVE your reactions. You are an incredibly strong woman. Keep up the great job. You will love "little girl gone". After you watch the official music video, check out the great stripped down acoustic version. Like Ren she sometimes releases 2 versions of the same song. Btw, I know of 2 reaction channels that have had her on as a guest, so I think you should go for it and make a request. You will never know what will happen. If you want so happy music to react to after this, maybe try "1990es" by Ren or "Inner Ninja" by Classified (it's obvious you have one of those in you!!!).
HAHA my inner ninja is kind of a b!tch, but I do love her.
I'm so pleased you like my content, Rodger. That makes my insides all happy! TONS more Chinchilla coming this weekend (and into next week). Stay tuned, doll face.
Okay this is my first time hearing this song and seeing this video and holy fuck balls her visual performance was as good as her performance. It was a piece of art. I think that between her and Ren. they are redefining modern music. It’s like a new evolution in music and I cannot wait to see where this leads in the future music needs to change. It’s essential to growth.
Modern music is improved by their contributions, to be sure. I'm excited to see what they come up with next.
I like the cut of your jib. Instant follow. And this song always gives me Chinchills. Her delivery and vocals and lyrics are always top notch. I’m so sorry you had to experience that horrible incident.
Thank you very much. And my delight in discovering Chinchilla cannot be overstated.
What wasn't surprising when I quoted this in the comments when it dropped with a 'IYKYK ❤️🔥?
Sadly, the sheer number of ❤️🔥 from women in return.
What was surprising?
Again, sadly, the number of men who..
1. First, didn't get it.
2. Second, after someone, somewhere had explained it to them, the sheer number of men who denied that "that was a thing".
Subscribed. ❤
Thank you so much! I appreciate you taking the time to comment.
I do have a Chinchilla Reactions playlist (short but growing). Do consider saving that. We just opened a merch store VocalCitizen.redbubble.com and are about to have some other cool features/memberships for your consideration.
I look forward to seeing you along the way. Don't be hesitant to reach out. 💜💃🏼💜
I ADORE your reaction,It was mine. So empowered.
Thank you. 😊
11:41 That would be "Cut you off". Like, the first scene of the video. She literally has a door in her hat.
Nice... that's so dope.
Fun fact, she opened for Sting on his 2019 arena tour.
That was brand new information. I hereby award you 100,000 cool points.
@@VocalCitizen Why thank you m'lady
Save them up... they could be valuable one day... I have sneaky sh!t planned. Merch store is up. Go check my channel description for the link.
What are you watching? An artist!
A virtuoso.
For a bit of a tour of Chinchilla’s brain check out the official music video for Cut you Off !
That's coming this week!!! Watch for it and a ton more Chinchilla!
The way I was understanding the line about keys in the knuckles in the song is her giving the guy a warning that he should walk around with his keys in his hands because he'll need to protect himself from her because she's coming for him. But that concept is something that all women can relate to because women know that it only takes one man to ruin their life in the most horrifying ways and we'll do what we can to protect ourselves from experiencing that.
Great reaction to a powerful song! The first Chinchilla song I listened to and I related in the most delicious way, especially to the keep your keys in your knuckles like I have to line. Check out MF Diamond music video for a lighter song! 13:42
Thank you so much...
Great reaction - not seen you before, I shall be back 😊
I'm pleased to read that. Thank you.
You are the vocal citizen, and you say wtf you want....if you can. Lol that is when your brain isn't playing syllable roulette.
I won an Olympic gold medal playing syllable roulette. It's a hard habit to break.
@VocalCitizen BTW, I haven't watched it QUITE yet but I saw you dropped who is gonna be the one. *laughs in metalhead* I'll bet that one was a RIDE
you don't know the half of it...
I lost my sh!t and now I'm sh!tless...
@VocalCitizen they are the ONE band I've ever sprung for the meet n greet for. Unfortunately it was post/mid covid so you can imagine the change in dynamic.
Oh bummer. Yeah some bands are just worth whatever...
The space bar will pause and play. The forward and back arrows with move you back and forward. No mousey mouse. 😁
I know. I work in Streamlabs and it works a little differently.
Good morning from London 👋. Just having breakfast with you my beautiful human ❤️👍. Please try Chinchilla's ELEMENTS lyric video or FABULOUS or LITTLE GIRL GONE REQUIEM LIVE for a dark different vibe from 🎵🎶🍯this phenomenal young lady is doing 🤌🙏💪🐝🍀
I love every word of this comment. Was it an English standard breakfast? Did you eat the toast too? LOL
All the songs you listed are coming very soon.
Damn, I love my UK fans.. 💕💕💕
@@VocalCitizen Just keep doing YOU my lovely 👍🙏💪🐝🍀
Don't know how to do anything else...
BTW: I'm letting my subs know that the merch store is open now...
Check it out if you want. We ship worldwide:

Terms and conditions 🔥🔥🔥🔥
She is pure badass!!
Love her weirdness
I’m obsessed too lol
Firing that reaction up this coming weekend.
❤
💜💃🏼💜
Just luv the way u embrace ur CRAZY. If u luv Ren and Chinchilla u definitely should check out Harry Mack
I'm at the corner of Weird Way and Animated Avenue.
Pin the location so you can visit.
Thank you for speaking your Truth. So sorry that happened to you. I have a history of violent trauma involving a gun. Instinct did indeed take over and I was able to get to safety. But I will never forget the sensation of the cold steel against my temple. Just sharing so you, and others, know you're not alone.
I was also taught to carry keys between my knuckles.
'Fingers' Live is my favorite of all Chinchilla's performances. I've experienced MANY times and she still gives me chills!
You mentioned wanting to see Chinchilla in concert. Perhaps this video of her recent Pink Pop 2024 performance will tide you over until she comes to the US 😃 💖🙋♀️
ruclips.net/video/qeaHH5IURoY/видео.htmlsi=ocbFI0cXWD455-FY
F*CK YEAH! I will check that out this weekend. Look for it early in the week.
@@VocalCitizen Awesome! FYI: the video is from a channel that's not Chinchilla's. I looked on hers first but didn't see anything posted.
She's really in her element on stage. Queen. Goddess. Badass. 🔥💖
You forgot LEGEND...
I think it’s about somebody she casually knew and gun violence. Hugs I’m a gun w/ sexual violence survivor I was 13. It hits hard. ❤
I see..... This song is super cool, but also tragic... I dig it.
Fuckin love you!
As I f*ckin' love YOU. 🫠
Don't ever let anyone take advantage of you 😢i hope that blood on your shoes was theirs xxx
I was bruised and scraped (with missing hair) but not a drop of blood, so my instinct must've nailed him. I hope there was permanent damage... 😏😈
No that's the way we were taught the keys are a good defender they can cut deeper than any knife
Especially if you punch then twist.
Ur tattoo should be a fist clenched with keys in the knuckle and the lyric/phrase "karma's coming back for you, and she's in the shape of me"
I have so many ideas for the piece... stay tuned.
Is it just me or is her whole outfit and the instrumentals very reminiscent of the mad hatter? Or am I just imagining things?
You are not imagining things.
I hope a man dosnt have to hqave your back but I am a big sstrong man and I will protect from bad men dont be to affreai there are good mmen dont think men are all bad there are good ones here xx
There ABSOLUTELY ARE fantastic, brave, upstanding men. There are MANY MANY of them. I was raised by one, married another (with whom I am still great friends, although our marriage didn't last beyond a decade). I'm just WAY more cautious and I use a state's CASENET to search for criminal convictions. 😜 Thanks so much for sharing your important thoughts. 💃🏼
Not seen your videos before - oh my goodness, horrific to hear what happened to you.
I appreciate you watching.
I'm one of the lucky ones, having escaped the actual deed.
Too many women aren't so fortunate.
@@VocalCitizen As /i said below, this is why I advocate strength training.
and Jiu-jitsu... best for women to learn, since you don't have to be a huge muscle-sack to be effective.
@@VocalCitizen Yes!
why would you ask how you tube is going? imagine a reporter starting with 'whats up fox news" it makes no sense we are your audience not RUclips
LOL because that's just what I say... "I'm the VocalCitizen and I say..."
❤
