The original Verve version of this is a British classic, and somehow Ren has taken it and made it even better. The guitar player from the Verve even sent him his guitar after he saw it.
The little video Ren did of the unwrapping was cool as well. It was an epic gesture by Simon that Ren was just blown away by. Ren was saying he got a little emotional over it. I did as well, was a big fan if The Verve back in the day.
“People rise for work and the sun mirrors that” is a very British bar because the two most popular newspapers for working class people is The Sun And The Mirror.
@@redheadedneighbor He is such a lyricist that that was just a single line but the double entendre is so skilled and unique you have to think how did that ever register in his head in the first place? 😊
@@RealmsOfThePossible these are the things that separate the men from the boys. It’s why the more you know about an artist the more the context matters and the lyrics are far more exciting!!
This resonates because of the song and your comment about your country are your people. We disagree a lot the time with each other but at the end of the day, we’re Americans and we can’t forget that
This song has become a modern representation of Britain 🇬🇧 , almost like a 21st-century national anthem from the Underground. I love the fact it’s all filmed in Brighton which is my city, so I can recognise every single location in this music video.
So much of Ren's eye for detail in this one Says "in the city we glow" just as he walks into the sunlight" Stop in front of a grave shaped man hole when he says "His mothers at a funeral" and many more... Considering its a timed one take (with some cuts) it's still impressive
Nothing Bittersweet about this take on a Classic British Music Track Ren !! Knocking it out the Ball Park once again scoring another Six🏏you would be very hard pushed to find a bigger fan than redheadedneighbor. Thank you so much for your take on our Boy 🙏
Hun, this is England. So happy you got it. Its sampled of a tune from a band from my younger days. Bitter Sweet Symphony. The Verve, I saw them at Manchester (UK), University Student Union, About twelve people, out on the lash. Lol. They went on to make this toon. And got famous. I couldn't see them, for dry ice. Its a true story. Look what's happened now? Ren doing his twist on it.
@@redheadedneighbor Yes he has made it so special, and bobbed around on the pier. Love it. It is just wonderful to watch him doing that. And doing his own twist. The Verve did that too, they were inspired and sampled. I was watching the band, through a haze, lol. Who would have thought it. Best wishes. 💃
I'm not a fan of cities or massive amounts of people, but the way Ren does this makes me want to go there out of pride for a place I'm not even from! 😂😂 Brilliant!! 😊
This song resonates with something inside us all, it hits much more emotionally than i was expecting. Maybe slightly melancholic cos we want to love our britain but there's so much strife and trouble. I dunno....
The area I live in in Scotland it is 6 mile away from the Stirling castle but there were so many battles in the valley that we live in. I played in a ruin of a castle and a watch tower it was amazing as kids going exploring our past on our own. Awa the jocks big in braw 😊
Used to spend a fair amount of time in Britain. I miss it, didn’t even mind the rain most times and when the sun comes out it’s food for the soul. I always felt at home there. For me this is one of Ren’s best tracks - and as always it’s the truth.
This was a tribute his home, Britain. A place he truly LOVES, flaws and all. Great reaction. Have you done Children Of The Moon? It would be perfect for spooky season.
Non-spoiler: Sam said the part in that song that has writing all over the walls was recorded under an overpass in the middle of the night. He said that the cops drove up slowly and asked them what they were doing. They replied: "Oh, uh, there was some graffiti here that was really bad and we're painting over it because we don't want other people to see it." The cops said "oh, ok" and drove off. Lol
I just found this corner of the interwebs and hitting the sub button. I love this rendition of his love for his city/country, supposedly the Verve who made the original was just as impressed. Great reaction!
Another wonderful reaction. It's amazing how Ren can write his own lyrics and film his own video to the music score of an original, in this case, the 1997 Verve song "Bitter Sweet Symphony. Ren calls it a "retake" when he uses the base melody of another artist's song and raps over the track. I like the original, too, but I love Ren's version; it is more hopeful and upbeat than the original. Ren set up the storyline "actors" for the video. For those who are not familiar with British English, in Great Britain, a cubicle usually refers to a bathroom stall, so "junkie in a cubicle" refers to a junkie found in a bathroom, and "out on the lash" is slang for going out for some heavy drinking. Stepping “in and out of gaps of the pavement cracks" is probably a play on superstitious behavior; in the US, some people think it is bad luck to step on sidewalk cracks. In other parts of the world, it is believed that it will release evil spirits from the underworld. Birds of a feather is an English metaphor meaning those with similar interests or of the same kind tend to form groups. Someone else commented that Ren said he crossed the road to catch the sunlight to match up with the lyrics "glow" and then stopped at the coffin-shaped storm drain for "crying at a funeral" to represent the gravestone. Ren's attention to detail is remarkable. The bassist from the Verve reached out to Ren after listening to the song and gifted him one of his own guitars. Ren posted a video of the unboxing on his channel; he was super excited and grateful. He looked like a little boy on Christmas morning opening the gift he had wished for. By the way, 10 GBP equates to about $12 right now. Good thing Ren had to quit smoking because of his health on the advice of his Canadian doctor.
Another one take of course but when you watch it again, check out the pinpoint timing of the whole piece, highlighted by the line "in the city we glow" at the exact moment he steps out into the sunlight - that's how much of a perfectionist Ren and Samuel Perry-Falvey are. I feel Ren comes up with a word and then challenges himself to get into into a rap song somehow lol. He really is a modern day poet - check out Trick the Fox A Poem By Ren which was posted 11 years ago when he was about 21 to see just how wise he was even at such a tender age.
You can stay with me and my family up in the North West (Cheshire) if you want to do a tour. We have beautiful cities like Chester and some not so nice towns like Crewe. Where I live there are forests, hills and lakes so a bit out in the styx but still plenty to experience. Nothing like a village pub with their "mornin' local" types, dog sat by the fire. We are about an hour and a half drive away from Anglesey where Ren grew up too.
@@redheadedneighbor love going to Buxton near us. Has quite a big truth seeking awakened community and a gorgeous victorian theatre. Just a shame about the lousy weather.
Come visit! Get to see Brighton, Manchester, etc, see the beauty of Wales, Scotland and actually the English countryside (still picturesque just more 'tamed') , but beware, while London may be seen as the centre and has a lot of famous landmarks its not really 'friendly' (I feel I would be lynched for saying 'Hi' on the tube but I have to say enjoyed seeing the discomfort on a Londoners face :D)
I'm late to the party, and I'm not gonna look in the comments, so sorry if this has been said before, when the music kicks in and he walks from the shadowside of the street onto the sunlit part, that's just perfect!
Hi Red, me again, but this time it's not a Ren song (Uninvited) to get you red faced as well as red-headed, lol. This time I'd love to introduce you to an Aussie singer-songwriter called Tash Sultana. She is a multi-instrumentalist and extremely musically talented who writes all her own stuff; kinda like Ren tbh. The song I'd love you to react to is called "Jungle (Live Bedroom Recording)". She uses multiple electronic devices, a drum station and guitar plus multiple loop pedals; she also has a great voice. About 3/4 way through the song she gets totally lost in the music and her moves are something to be admired. PRETTY PLEASE, she truly is💥💥💥💥💥. Reply
@@redheadedneighbor Thank you so very much. It's really heart warming when someone, like yourself, actually listens to their subscribers and also takes the time to reply. You have made this 70 year old Scotsman very happy indeed. I will be looking out for your reaction to Tash, just as I look out for all your reactions.
Hi Red, yep the uk has many breathtaking parts, some for the right reasons and some for the wrong. I’m from Manchester and to me the city centre on the greyest rainy day, is a delight❤️
Hello again bud. We've spoke about how we've both had our worlds rocked by this man. Like him you have come out of nowhere and quickly become one of my favorite Reactors to his content. I looked through your Ren playlist. Can i recommend a couple i think you haven't done yet, murderer LIVE!, I shot the sheriff by The Big Push, The Mash Up by Trick The Fox ❤👍
Just realised I have an ear to ear smile from your appreciation of this. Btw / American friends - cubicle isn’t an office work pod here, it’s a public toilet where you can bolt the door - junkies use them, unless the store has put in UV lights - back to the rest of this smile fest - thanks red haired yank - from? I’ve a brilliant n SLC, but his kids are Deighton MA, has a house there too. / you asked to know us. 😂❤
Thank you for telling me about the cubicle! That’s a very big difference, however in some cases I think junkies are in both types of cubicles! I’m from Arkansas. I appreciate your kindness in sharing!
The Verve track was great ! but REN riding along with kind of Track made it sound so relatable to everyone especially where it was filmed in Brighton REN s hometown where all the Big Push and Sam Tomkins Live Street Sessions were elevated by no other than Ren , His Number One Status is so well deserved and worked hard for , as i ve heard track a few times now but still sounds so fresh as does all his music may continue to absorb everyone no one artist out there shows so much diversity : And the reactions as always are brilliant , my go too every time 💝💖
i can't remember the last time I heard a song that had something positive to say about living in Britain, but when has Ren followed the herd? Just as impressive as working in the word "juxtaposition" is Ren's use of the seemingly insignificant phrase "as above so below". Apparently this a reference to an ancient piece of writing called the Emerald Tablet which describes the idea that we (below) are made in the image of God (above). Ren's not joking when he says he's an over-thinker!
This reaction was great to watch your smile appeared bigger than in other reactions. I'm glad you found this little gem of a remake by Ren having loved the original song back in the 90's I was grinning ear to ear before I even clicked heard Ren's version the first time. I think the fact that Ren could make observations about social issues at home but still emphatically say it's home and I love it is just a great message. Sidenote the little video posted of Ren's reaction to his first UK No 1 album almost brought tears to a grown man, the unabashed joy and excitement was just cool to see. Onwards and upwards so says this RENegade. 😂
Great version of a classic song! I can relate even though I live in New Zealand. It's Spring here so there's lot of blossoming trees and it feels alive today. 😊
We're a bit damp at the moment. All up and Down Britain when you have to Paddle to bed up a Flight of Stairs .you know your in the shit .especially has its floating around your feet .No 64 left yesterday's food on my Floor .😮😮
I knew you'd enjoy this one! He manages to put his own spin on it as only he can do. He captures Britain in about three minutes! I don't know if you remember as it was quite a while back now but as one of many who've suggested this one I mentioned there was something very clever to spot in it. Check out the pavement at 4:41 and what he's singing at that moment. I don't think you've done Right Here, Right Now yet have you, that's a great Ren retake as well. Be prepared for a brief blush 😂
Your awesome you gotta hear Rens song Univited from his new album it’s the one love song but it’s amazing!!! I’d love to see your reaction to that song
Please visit, your Dollar will go further in the UK at the mo', It's safe, the food is cheaper and much better than you'd think, we are reserved but friendly. When your not in a daily grind it's a lovely country, mild weather generally, great transport infrastructure and wild Parrots in London parks.
hopefully most peeps dont think us brits drink afternoon tea and eat cucumber sandwiches cos real life aint like that cos we have same struggles as our global brothers and sisters
@@redheadedneighbor as brits and i am sure as of the rest of the world we roll with the punches and keep going regardless but for brits we have the "stiff upper lip" mentality and that means not let anything rock you lol even tho life hurts sometimes! break your leg=keep walking hahaha
@@mrj9585 as a southerner in America, we are the same. Take the hits and keep moving forward. There is honor and pride in being independent and suffering is just a part of life. Lol
"junkie in a cubicle with a old spoon thats useable" now that in the uk is a heavy bar as we have a massive Heroin problem and lots of users need a spoon and a needle ...dunno what ya call users like that in the USA but UK we call them SmackHeads or SmackRats.
We have lots of names. Similar to that. In this area everyone is called a crack head even if it’s heroin. Or Junkies. Lots of other names. It’s a big problem.
@@redheadedneighbor it sucks cos these people are weak and have had a hard life and it pains me but over here in the uk untill you realise its an issue nothin gonna change sadly ,,,,never judge a book by its cover..yes they have a Habit but they are Human after all
@@redheadedneighbor for me it is sad we can send people into space and have super tech but we cannot look after our own kind regardless of race or religion that for me is very sad!...we are 1 race and that is the HUMAN race not black or white!
If you want to visit the UK. You are more than welcome. You pay for your return flight and you can stay in my guest room. No hotel fees, And i will show you the delights of Roman Empire in Lincolnshire, England.. My Mother has true bloodlines through England, My Farther has Irish blood running through him. You have Scottish. Red hair and Blue eyes within you. I am a mix, What is your Surname ?
Btw - we Irish love our British neighbours, most of them have an Irish grandparent, but if you visit Ireland 🇮🇪 , don’t use the B word. I’m an Irish Dubliner, who has lived in Oxford half his life / going out to blow a smoke ring up to heaven / delete this if I’ve gassed too much.
Thanks for reacting to that! It's such an uplifting one. It does make me proud to come from Britain 🇬🇧 Ren does a re-take of the Fat Boy Slim song 'right here, right now' it's another fun song and video
The original Verve version of this is a British classic, and somehow Ren has taken it and made it even better. The guitar player from the Verve even sent him his guitar after he saw it.
I remember the original well! He did add some extra special love on this!💕💕💕🔥🔥🔥

@@AndrewinAus that was a very meaningful thing Simon did.
Isn’t the verve riff lifted from the intro to a stones track? I think I took it too far. 😊
“People rise for work and the sun mirrors that” is a very British bar because the two most popular newspapers for working class people is The Sun And The Mirror.

This resonates because of the song and your comment about your country are your people. We disagree a lot the time with each other but at the end of the day, we’re Americans and we can’t forget that
Is that why there are sooo many USA flags everywhere, so you don't forget? ;)

I love that so much. Having those songs are important. I’m really glad to have heard it. ❤️❤️
Britain's new theme song!! "my companion is the city so I'm never alone", great line.
It really is!
Another great example from #REN flowing through the streets
Exactly!
Ren sums up Britain perfectly on this one, doesn't matter what era you grew up in within Britain we all can resonate with something from this
💕💕💕
Your enthusiasm for the music is inspiring
Being able to share it with y’all, makes it even better.
so good. i love this song but ren is a genius
As my girlfriend has phrased it. "He is a musical decathlete, only one that would also win the ten individual events!
So much of Ren's eye for detail in this one
Says "in the city we glow" just as he walks into the sunlight"
Stop in front of a grave shaped man hole when he says "His mothers at a funeral"
and many more...
Considering its a timed one take (with some cuts) it's still impressive
Mind blowing
Re: travel to Britain, do it. I'm not from Britain but I am a descendant & I found a strange genetic recognition in the place.
I hope the UK knows they have a world treasure just running around in the streets!
Yes!
Nothing Bittersweet about this take on a Classic British Music Track Ren !! Knocking it out the Ball Park once again scoring another Six🏏you would be very hard pushed to find a bigger fan than redheadedneighbor. Thank you so much for your take on our Boy 🙏
I am a fan, for sure! I am small potatoes to those who have known him from the early days.. but I am definitely a RENegade
Thanks for this one Red. Ren took a classic from the Verve and reimagined it into new National Anthem!! All the best from the UK
I loved this!
What an anthem!
Hun, this is England. So happy you got it. Its sampled of a tune from a band from my younger days. Bitter Sweet Symphony. The Verve, I saw them at Manchester (UK), University Student Union, About twelve people, out on the lash. Lol. They went on to make this toon. And got famous.
I couldn't see them, for dry ice. Its a true story. Look what's happened now? Ren doing his twist on it.

I want to see that place!
It could be any country, beauty is INSIDE of people
@@susiejo143 I'm fully aware of that. 😁 Thank you and enjoy your day!!
This song resonates with something inside us all, it hits much more emotionally than i was expecting. Maybe slightly melancholic cos we want to love our britain but there's so much strife and trouble. I dunno....
The area I live in in Scotland it is 6 mile away from the Stirling castle but there were so many battles in the valley that we live in. I played in a ruin of a castle and a watch tower it was amazing as kids going exploring our past on our own. Awa the jocks big in braw 😊
One of my favourites

Yes💕
Great version of a classic song! I can relate even though I live in New Zealand. It's Spring here so there's lot of blossoming trees and it feels alive today. 😊
That sounds beautiful
If you go, I will too! Lol
Sweet!
We're a bit damp at the moment. All up and Down Britain when you have to Paddle to bed up a Flight of Stairs .you know your in the shit .especially has its floating around your feet .No 64 left yesterday's food on my Floor .😮😮
Oh no!!! That’s terrible! And we have been begging for some rain. Even the catfish have ticks.
@redheadedneighbor I hope your Begging becomes a reality. Because I'm Totally pissed off. With this shit.
@@maxmoore9955 we finally have some finally. I hope you get a break from it soon.
❤❤❤
🫣
Yeah, home is where people count, not countries
I knew you'd enjoy this one! He manages to put his own spin on it as only he can do. He captures Britain in about three minutes! I don't know if you remember as it was quite a while back now but as one of many who've suggested this one I mentioned there was something very clever to spot in it. Check out the pavement at 4:41 and what he's singing at that moment.
I don't think you've done Right Here, Right Now yet have you, that's a great Ren retake as well. Be prepared for a brief blush 😂
I have got to get to that song! Great comment.⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️
Britain is beautiful please visit...
Your awesome you gotta hear Rens song Univited from his new album it’s the one love song but it’s amazing!!! I’d love to see your reaction to that song

Please visit, your Dollar will go further in the UK at the mo', It's safe, the food is cheaper and much better than you'd think, we are reserved but friendly. When your not in a daily grind it's a lovely country, mild weather generally, great transport infrastructure and wild Parrots in London parks.
Sold!
hopefully most peeps dont think us brits drink afternoon tea and eat cucumber sandwiches cos real life aint like that cos we have same struggles as our global brothers and sisters
No, I don’t think all Brits do. However, I wish you did. I would love to see more people happy and comfortable.
@@redheadedneighbor as brits and i am sure as of the rest of the world we roll with the punches and keep going regardless but for brits we have the "stiff upper lip" mentality and that means not let anything rock you lol even tho life hurts sometimes! break your leg=keep walking hahaha
@@mrj9585 as a southerner in America, we are the same. Take the hits and keep moving forward. There is honor and pride in being independent and suffering is just a part of life. Lol
@@redheadedneighbor as long as you keep movin forward good lady you on right path.. when u stop going foreward that is the issue...keep movin Foreward
"junkie in a cubicle with a old spoon thats useable" now that in the uk is a heavy bar as we have a massive Heroin problem and lots of users need a spoon and a needle ...dunno what ya call users like that in the USA but UK we call them SmackHeads or SmackRats.
We have lots of names. Similar to that. In this area everyone is called a crack head even if it’s heroin. Or Junkies. Lots of other names. It’s a big problem.
@@redheadedneighbor it sucks cos these people are weak and have had a hard life and it pains me but over here in the uk untill you realise its an issue nothin gonna change sadly ,,,,never judge a book by its cover..yes they have a Habit but they are Human after all
@@redheadedneighbor i know of top legalpeeps that smoke so much crack before you go to court its insane but thats cool huh?
@@mrj9585 I agree. It’s so sad. So many people are trapped before they know it.
@@redheadedneighbor for me it is sad we can send people into space and have super tech but we cannot look after our own kind regardless of race or religion that for me is very sad!...we are 1 race and that is the HUMAN race not black or white!
If you want to visit the UK. You are more than welcome. You pay for your return flight and you can stay in my guest room. No
hotel fees, And i will show you the delights of Roman Empire in Lincolnshire, England.. My Mother has true bloodlines through England, My Farther has
Irish blood running through him. You have Scottish. Red hair and Blue eyes within you. I am a mix, What is your Surname ?
That is so kind! i could never expect such hospitality!
The original “Rolling Stones” original. 😂
😆
Can you do fat boy slim right here right now ren version please?
Absolutely!
Btw - we Irish love our British neighbours, most of them have an Irish grandparent, but if you visit Ireland 🇮🇪 , don’t use the B word.
I’m an Irish Dubliner, who has lived in Oxford half his life / going out to blow a smoke ring up to heaven / delete this if I’ve gassed too much.
Lol. Not at all.💕.
If you visit Uk, i would advise taking ekstra socks with you, it's very wet :)
I have heard about the soggy conditions. I suppose I’ll buy rubber boots and splash in the puddles as well!
Lovely reaction. Sure hope those trying to eradicate diversity won't succeed. What a boring place the World would become.
Thank you. Not gonna happen
💕💕 we like different too much
Hi Babe , Did you miss me ?. 🙃😘
I think she did
I’m glad you said hello.☺️
@@alandoust551 ☺️
I'd better leave, smoking not welcome :/
Lol
Do as you wish. They are your lungs.😉. I eat too much butter.
this one is a another gem. Oh and hey it's time 🤣
Lol.😆
Thanks for reacting to that! It's such an uplifting one. It does make me proud to come from Britain 🇬🇧 Ren does a re-take of the Fat Boy Slim song 'right here, right now' it's another fun song and video
You know that I will be adding that one to the basket of goodies I’m going to unpack
@@redheadedneighbor cool, looking forward to it 😀
If you like this style of Retake/Remake try Ren's "Right Here, Right Now" Originally by Fatboy Slim.
This version absolutely bangs!
I loved the original and somehow I love this one more
@@redheadedneighbor I know, weird isn’t it? I think it’s just that Ren has that magic, that lightening in a bottle, it just brings something special.
@@Buy_Me_A_Nightmare I agree with that. 🔥🔥💯
@@redheadedneighbor It’s as if they are two different song’s, not a cover.
