I've avoided telling some folks about Ren because I look at them differently when they aren't as in awe of him as I think they should be. lol I've been enjoying your reactions. I adored your 😮face during this one. You really can't go wrong with any of his songs, but I'll say one of my favorite songs by him is 7 Sins. It is non-stop and intense. Another that I like to recommend that's on the lighter side, but also gives some of his background is Power. Looking forward to whichever you decide to do next!
So true! It's mystifying to me when I recommend Hi Ren to someone, they watch it, and then they're like, "Yeah, that was good" ... and then they just continue on with their lives as if something momentous hadn't just happened. Like, how do you not want to immediately know everything there is to know about this man?!
You have my exact two favorites for the exact same reasons! I am lucky to have one person who gets him, I shared Seven Sins with an old friend who lives on the other side of the country, who also has a chronic illness, and she said "it was like a punch in the gut and I LOVED IT." I think anyone who's had extensive pain, physical and/or mental, can relate to it deeply.
You're right that listening to Ren can be deeply personal and it brings your vulnerability to the surface. I tried to share Hi Ren with my mum (who I have a pretty good relationship with usually) and she dismissed it saying "I don't think I would be entertained by that"... and it shocked me how much it hurt me. First - she made a judgement and didn't give it a chance, which is her loss. But the worse thing was the feeling that she had dismissed me wanting to share the profound impact it had on my soul. I felt personally rejected by one of the most important people in my life, who I was trying to connect with in a really important way. So now I just don't share Ren with anyone except people I don't know on the internet because I can't handle the pain 😆But it's nice to find the reciprocity of souls here in the youtube reactor community.
Oh man I feel that, for some reason it's practically impossible to get anyone to listen to or read something that's important to you, even if it's relatively short. I think it hurts especially bc I take time to consume anything someone mentions as being important or formative for them -- I feel like there are few better ways to really get a glimpse of someone's soul.
I had the same thing happen to me - I asked someone who was like a sister to me to watch it, and they didn't. I asked several times over a year, saying it was impactful and I thought she would really enjoy it, and it would mean a lot to me if she watched it, and she could never be bothered. Yeah, I stopped mentioning anything about him to her about 6 months ago. I also stopped telling her a lot of things and have pulled back considerably. Or should I say, I'm putting as much into the relationship as she is now.
@bethray469 100% ! Yes I do too! I would never want to hurt someone's feelings by not even looking at it. Weirdly, part of me thinks maybe it's a good job she didn't watch Hi Ren... she might have told me she hated it 😆 that actually would have been worse! At least this way she might eventually give it a chance (when she decides it's her own idea lol) and realise why I wanted to share with her...
@@samanthazwickel That's an incredibly hard thing to do, but good on you for setting those boundaries for yourself. You find yourself a lot lighter when you're not constantly feeling let down. While relationships shouldn't have scorecards, it definitely shouldn't be 100% vs 10%.
@samanthazwickel aw I feel for you :( Although life after discovering Ren is beautiful in so many ways, it can really make you see people in a different way.
I kept Ren to myself for about 4 months because I didn’t think people would get it. But if there’s one take away from Ren it’s that there is nothing wrong with standing up and saying- this is me, take it or leave it. Life’s too short and I’m done being someone else’s version of me. I love your reactions and your honesty. So thank you for sharing yourself with us.❤
I did too, I don’t have anyone else around me at all into him. I feel unique for it though, because I like what I like and I’m going to keep doing what makes me happy 😊
You need to take a listen to Chinchilla’s stuff. Her live videos are so good! Please react to Fingers (live) and 1:5 (live) Good Girl Gone is fun. Ren is therapy for so many people.
This is utter perfection 🙌💜 I’ve been addicted to watching Ren reactor videos for a few months now ….i need to carve a space for living now 😂 I’ve just done a big cull of reactors, but you my friend are staying on notifications as you are so great to watch. Keep keeping it real!
I have talked about him and some people just don't get it. It is personal and I guess not everyone connects with his music. I still expose them to his music though.🙂 Great reaction and thoughts. Losing It is fun. One of my favorites is Illest of our Time.
I have been nagging my wife to watch his music with me because, as a musician, I just know she'd love Ren. But our musical tastes have diverged quite a bit so she'd pat me on the head and say "that's nice, dear." Well, I brought up Ren and she said she had done some research and he seems to be the real deal so tonight, VIDEOS FINALLY!
Thanks for another lovely reaction ❤. They are beautiful and mesmerising together aren’t they. I’ve spoken to a couple of people about Ren, but no-one I know has similar music tastes to me so I don’t have anyone to share with except the online community
The thing where you don't know if someone listens to Ren or not.....for me, it is so personal...and the other side of that is when I have tried to speak to someone about him and they just really don't care, it's kind of soul crushing. They can like what they like, but when there is such a strong personal connection to his music, it does feel a bit like a rejection of oneself when someone just doesn't care to even give it a listen. So I save it for sharing with the Renegades.
As a french canadien I haven't found many friend to share Ren with, I guess it's why I'm so addictited to the reaction 🤪 I'll be ready to share his music with every one, but it seam that you have to be in a particular state of minde and openness to get Ren. I don't know, I don't have any mental or physical health probleme (thank god), but I have friend and famelly who have so I connect to Ren's music too. The world need his music. Thanl you for your always real reaction. Take care.
This is my fav ren and chinny duet, i just resonate with it so deeply. I know for sure there's gonna be another song, if not 2, coming out soon with them both for his new album. Looking forward to it🥹💜
I've been watching your reactions for a while now and your every bit as authentic as ren, and yes he is phenomenal, awesome, actualy no word is sufficient to describe his truth, you are genuine too so thank you for doing your thing
More duets/collabs on the way from these two ! This is a really awesome performance by them both. Two words : Seven ... Sins. Essential first track from the Sick Boi album.
It's a beautiful song. I love Ren. Will shout it from the roof tops! But when I introduce him to someone and they don't fan out straight away, I judge them lol.
They're so wonderful together. You can see why they consider each other "musical siblings". ❤ Chinchilla's song Fingers live for hungertv, or 1:5 live, are powerful solo songs too. She's super too.
I know I may be crazy, but I think I prefer this over Chalk Outlines. I just love this one so much. So so good. Love your reaction and how much you’ve been enjoying going down the rabbit hole:)
Yes, I'm with you on this. Tried to share Ren with my grown up children, they just weren't interested. Is it wrong to disown them? Lol. Obviously i guess i have to blame blame the parent(me!) 😉 thanks for the reaction x
That "Where is my God? Where are you?" Gets me every time. Right in the heart. He vehemence and that look to the sky. OH MY LORD! They are so lovely together. You deserve some fun music. May I suggest his Love Music Quad? They are fun, bumpy and full of lyrical mastery. There's even a full Bond film scheme in Love Music, Pt. 2. So much fun. People find Ren exactly when they should. We can share him however it can be disappointing when it doesn't hit because they are not yet ready. There's so many paths to Ren and all of them are glorious.
I adore you. When I first saw Hi Ren, I was with my husband. When it was over we were both silent for a bit, then at the same time we both said "whoa." I'm so grateful we did this Ren journey together. I live in bed, with autoimmune disease and MCAS, like Ren. I have ankylosing spondylitis, so it's slightly different, but not by much. My spine and pelvis are turning all the tendons and ligaments that touch them to bone. It's been excruciatingly painful, but my hubby has been by my side the entire time. He takes care of me. He makes me feel like a princess, and I'm so incredibly lucky to have him. He tells me he's lucky to have me, but I have a hard time seeing that. I do know he loves me though. No matter what happens, or how much pain I'm in, I still feel lucky. I wouldn't trade places with someone else for anything. We also made two incredible humans, one is 22, the other will be 18 on Friday. If the only thing I ever did was raise these two incredible humans, then I'm happy with that. So glad you found Ren, we all find him when it's time. When we need him for whatever reason, there he is. And whenever you are ready to share with us, we will be here for you. We love you as part of the Renegade family.
I listen to this regularly for the most perfect haunting harmonies ❤ Ren Ft Bibi - Crutch. It’s an early years one but I think it shows the stripped back version of Ren.
I absolutely love watching your reactions...you can see it grabs your soul in the same way it has so many of us and it takes me back to the first time I heard these songs. You articulate how I felt/feel just so perfectly not just with your analysis at the end ... but with your expressions and body language while your watching....thank you ❤🙏💖
That gesture you did twice with your hands like "dude I can't with this" is exactly how I feel when I first listen to a new Ren song, lmao. A find a little wild arm flailing is also helpful for dealing with the excess energy I get when he really hits me hard, lol. Others have mentioned Seven Sins -- the first time I listened to it I was driving and thus couldn't flail, and I felt like I was having an out-of-body experience. Fortunately I was driving a very familiar route, lol.
Always a great react! I’m excited to watch some of the videos where you get to know Ren better! Like the “one million subs” video, the “sickboy goin #1” video and the “chapters”, personally I love seeing reactors taking the time to get to know RENs story! They always gain such a deeper love and understanding for the music! If you’re looking for a great song, little heavy, try Dominoes by ren. It’s a lyric video, only like 4 min, but it is heavy
This is such a beautiful and haunting song. It's meant to be haunting because it's about being haunted by grief that you can't escape. The Chapters leading up to the release of Troubles was such a beautiful work he did because he didn't want anyone to ever go through what he did and feel as alone as he did. So he told his story. As far as what to listen to. . . All of it. Another song he did for Joe was Freckled Angles. Animal Flow is an upbeat one with a fun one shot. Uninvited is a bop. Ren does "pop love song" but so good and a lot different from what he usually does. As for Big Push my favourite busking session is War Pig (but more cause it's Ren) and Sweet Little Lady 💜 Came back to add. . . 7 Sins. That is all
Must watches or chinchillas live performance for hunger, TV of the song, Fingers, and for a bit of a switch up check out Little Girl Gone and 1:5 🤘❤️🇨🇦
Brilliant reaction! I absolutely love your thoughts on this one. 💛💛💛 Edit to add my Ren suggestion. Heretic- I relate to it deeply, the lyrics, music and video are amazing.
Great reaction. I love how you are so easy to listen to as well. Ren had a band called Trick the Fox back when he first became ill. He did some cracking songs. Pocket full of pain is great. So much to hear. Try Murderer acoustic version. It's awesome. Try a collaboration, Webby and Ren, Baggage 😊
If you haven't already seen it, Chinchilla's live version of "Fingers" is worth a watch. Her voice is amazing. As others have mentioned below, for a lighter side of Ren, his retake of Losing It is brilliant, What You Want is a Beastie Boys homage, and another one-take masterpiece is The Hunger. Actually, literally anything on his channel tbh.
Subbed! Loved your reaction. Your expressions and feeling in your voice. Thank you for being real. So happy he’s touched you like he’s touched all of us ❤
Love the way you react and the way Ren's songs make you feel 'cause I feel you (don’t know if what I’m saying makes sense …) Saludos Amigo. From a recent Renagade to another. Te envío un abrazo. Gracias.
You're absolutely spot on with sharing Ren.. his music is deeply personal and we don't easily randomly talk about that with everyone. My favourite song to share with people is Unvited.. it's such a naughty and funny song!
You rant away my lovely 🫶 I am here as much for you as Ren I would love you to react to Chinchilla - Fingers LIVE and for something a bit more fun how about What You Want by Ren, his homage to the Beastie Boys
If you are ready for it, 'Crutch' with Bibi is an early one from 2015 and on Ren's Freckled Angel album. It is a heavy one from before he found out he had Lyme. It might come close to home though so make sure you are in a good place. 'Power' is a lighter one to do. I hope Ren will be back in Brighton when you move there. I think he has gotten wandering feet at the moment. Thank you for your reaction. Ren and Chinchilla are amazing.
My husband is a deeply sensitive person and a real music lover. He also had his fair share of traumas in life. Thinking he would be the perfection candidate, I put together a Ren playlist for him, hoping Ren would help him process some of that crap he’s dealing with. So he watched 2 clips, and thought it was good… and jumped right at playing all his music while going about his business. I’m so disappointed that he didn’t take the time to feel it :-( I guess it wasn’t the right moment for him.😞
I get completely what u mean in ur outro. The songs feel like u wanna keep them cuz they hit u on a personal level wh3n u find another RENagade in the wild tho it is a lot of fun. My ringtone is the guitar intro to HI REN and when I see someone who recognized it it's a great feeling
I love Ren and the songs "hi ren" and "the tale of Jenny and Screech" went straight to my heart. But I have to say (I know it's an unpopulair opinion) the rest doesn't get me as much. I love Ren's story and the way he is, but I haven't found another song yet that hit me as hard as the other ones. But I will keep following him and his songs, for he is an amazing artist/performer/story teller ❤
I can’t believe I’m gonna stray from Ren for a moment. But it would be nice for you to see a bit of Chinchilla’s work - she wears the nails for “armor” to fend off her stage fright. She has one massive banger (amongst many) called “Little Girl Gone” and it has a really great music video where she’s badass. She’s also an independent artist and self produces like Ren. They (she and Ren) have also busked together and she loved it - was a new phenomenon for her and she jumped in with him so well. But, yeah, give Little Girl Gone video a watch one day. I’d love to see your reaction to it. That said, great reaction. And I will always love your Ren reactions. A quick alert though: if you venture into his diss track called “Kujo Beatdown” try to get the back story first as it makes the viewing clearer. Keep on keeping on!
I think what you're feeling is a deep personal connection with Ren. It may seem unbelievable that someone you don't know and who doesn't know you can make you feel this way. How can an artist touch you like this? You know it's true within yourself and it is something that you can't imagine anyone else feels. Each of us are surprised that another person feels Ren as deeply as we do. You'll get used to this phenomenon quickly. Ren transcends the human experience, affects us and joins us at a deep level. It's simple but wonderous thing that Ren's music does. A WORD OF WARNING .... Do no say the word 'Su!c!de' or write it in your thumbnails. YT will have at you for it; demonetization and the like. So many other ways to say it that everyone understands. Offed himself. Un-alived, is a popular one. She removed herself. They made themselves no longer here. Erased himself. She S-worded herself. Etc, etc, etc. You can speak to other reactors on YT about it if you need help or ideas. Just a little fyi. LOVED your reaction. You are a natural. Keep up the good work. I've seen a couple of your reaction vids and keep coming bac for more. Big love. 🧡
I've avoided telling some folks about Ren because I look at them differently when they aren't as in awe of him as I think they should be. lol
I've been enjoying your reactions. I adored your 😮face during this one.
You really can't go wrong with any of his songs, but I'll say one of my favorite songs by him is 7 Sins. It is non-stop and intense. Another that I like to recommend that's on the lighter side, but also gives some of his background is Power.
Looking forward to whichever you decide to do next!
Love this comment. And man is it true.
So true! It's mystifying to me when I recommend Hi Ren to someone, they watch it, and then they're like, "Yeah, that was good" ... and then they just continue on with their lives as if something momentous hadn't just happened. Like, how do you not want to immediately know everything there is to know about this man?!
@@yilomina2047 someone who I thought would really connect said, "Yeah, it was good, but not really my style". Uh. Wait... what?
@@samanthazwickel It's a mystery
You have my exact two favorites for the exact same reasons! I am lucky to have one person who gets him, I shared Seven Sins with an old friend who lives on the other side of the country, who also has a chronic illness, and she said "it was like a punch in the gut and I LOVED IT." I think anyone who's had extensive pain, physical and/or mental, can relate to it deeply.
I tnink its time for for you to jump in to some fun Ren. Losing it, Power, and What you want
The one million subscribers video is a very good one if you do a non-music video and want some insight into who Ren is as a person!
You're right that listening to Ren can be deeply personal and it brings your vulnerability to the surface. I tried to share Hi Ren with my mum (who I have a pretty good relationship with usually) and she dismissed it saying "I don't think I would be entertained by that"... and it shocked me how much it hurt me. First - she made a judgement and didn't give it a chance, which is her loss. But the worse thing was the feeling that she had dismissed me wanting to share the profound impact it had on my soul. I felt personally rejected by one of the most important people in my life, who I was trying to connect with in a really important way.

Oh man I feel that, for some reason it's practically impossible to get anyone to listen to or read something that's important to you, even if it's relatively short. I think it hurts especially bc I take time to consume anything someone mentions as being important or formative for them -- I feel like there are few better ways to really get a glimpse of someone's soul.
I had the same thing happen to me - I asked someone who was like a sister to me to watch it, and they didn't. I asked several times over a year, saying it was impactful and I thought she would really enjoy it, and it would mean a lot to me if she watched it, and she could never be bothered.

Watch "Losing It" for some raptastic bombastic fun. Tonne of footage of Brighton. :)

I love "Seven Sins", but it is a heavy one. 😔
More duets/collabs on the way from these two ! This is a really awesome performance by them both. Two words : Seven ... Sins. Essential first track from the Sick Boi album.
I tell everyone about him just because I want everyone to be able to benefit from him like I have 🙂
“Hauntingly beautiful” might be the most accurate description of this song 🖤
It's a beautiful song.
I love Ren. Will shout it from the roof tops! But when I introduce him to someone and they don't fan out straight away, I judge them lol.
They're so wonderful together. You can see why they consider each other "musical siblings". ❤
Chinchilla's song Fingers live for hungertv, or 1:5 live, are powerful solo songs too. She's super too.
Chinchilla, Fingers live for Hunger TV will blow your mind!
Shamelessly few reactions on this song of hers.
❤ Sue
Everyone loves your kind personality and authenticity with the viewers and how much you connect with Rens work.
Really enjoy your Ren reactions. Thank you for sharing our love of Ren
I know I may be crazy, but I think I prefer this over Chalk Outlines. I just love this one so much. So so good.
Love your reaction and how much you’ve been enjoying going down the rabbit hole:)
I envy you!! I'd give anything to hear Ren's music for the first time again !!!!!!! Great reaction.
Yes, I'm with you on this. Tried to share Ren with my grown up children, they just weren't interested. Is it wrong to disown them? Lol. Obviously i guess i have to blame blame the parent(me!) 😉 thanks for the reaction x

I love your reactions and always look forward to your videos. Love Ren and Chinchilla together as their voices blend so beautifully ❤
Best thing I found on RUclips…. REN
second best thing I found on RUclips. YOUR REACTIONS. Thank you mate! ❤
You, Sir, are melting my heart. Love watching you feel the Songs, just like we all felt them the first time. Thank you for that feeling. ❤
Definitely check out Chinchillas solo stuff! She is 🔥🔥🔥 Incredible artist
This one makes me get in my feels. Every. Single. Time.
I listen to this regularly for the most perfect haunting harmonies ❤ Ren Ft Bibi - Crutch. It’s an early years one but I think it shows the stripped back version of Ren.
So fun watching u watch REN!😂❤ love from 🇺🇸
Fingers, live performance, by Chinchilla is a really good one. Love to see you react to that. 😊
I absolutely love watching your reactions...you can see it grabs your soul in the same way it has so many of us and it takes me back to the first time I heard these songs. You articulate how I felt/feel just so perfectly not just with your analysis at the end ... but with your expressions and body language while your watching....thank you ❤🙏💖
Your giddiness at the beginning made me giggle. Reactions like this are why I watch reactions. I love watching people fall down the rabbit hole.
That gesture you did twice with your hands like "dude I can't with this" is exactly how I feel when I first listen to a new Ren song, lmao. A find a little wild arm flailing is also helpful for dealing with the excess energy I get when he really hits me hard, lol.

Love your reactions. There is a healing when music echos how we feel. Ren with Chinchilla is most definitely magical ✨️ ❤
non stop chills with this one! i second 'sick boi' and 'losing it' as two very different sides to Ren :)
Most perfect song in history and to my experience. Your connection and facials with it are beautiful❤
My favorite from these 2 thank you song so beautiful ❤
They're great together. Love your reactions, you have a wonderful accent.
Love your reactions! Anything by Ren is great. ❤

Everybody talks about the Ren Club. 😁
I loooove this one so much, it’s my fav from them together. Just so hitting for me. Wonderful reaction ❤
This song perfectly sums up grief this is me since my daughter died 😢
Must watches or chinchillas live performance for hunger, TV of the song, Fingers, and for a bit of a switch up check out Little Girl Gone and 1:5 🤘❤️🇨🇦
Just found the channel, subscribed and new video pops up. Love it!
Brilliant reaction! I absolutely love your thoughts on this one.
💛💛💛
Edit to add my Ren suggestion. Heretic- I relate to it deeply, the lyrics, music and video are amazing.
Hello my friend and welcome to the world of Ren
I'd love to see more reactions keep em coming
Great reaction. I love how you are so easy to listen to as well. Ren had a band called Trick the Fox back when he first became ill. He did some cracking songs. Pocket full of pain is great. So much to hear. Try Murderer acoustic version. It's awesome. Try a collaboration, Webby and Ren, Baggage 😊
If you haven't already seen it, Chinchilla's live version of "Fingers" is worth a watch. Her voice is amazing. As others have mentioned below, for a lighter side of Ren, his retake of Losing It is brilliant, What You Want is a Beastie Boys homage, and another one-take masterpiece is The Hunger. Actually, literally anything on his channel tbh.
Subbed! Loved your reaction. Your expressions and feeling in your voice. Thank you for being real. So happy he’s touched you like he’s touched all of us ❤
Love the way you react and the way Ren's songs make you feel 'cause I feel you (don’t know if what I’m saying makes sense …)
Saludos Amigo. From a recent Renagade to another.
Te envío un abrazo.
Gracias.
You're absolutely spot on with sharing Ren.. his music is deeply personal and we don't easily randomly talk about that with everyone. My favourite song to share with people is Unvited.. it's such a naughty and funny song!
Wonderful reaction as always 🥰
Great reaction 🔥❤️✌️
You have to do a Chinchilla reaction next !!! Fingers 🤞. (Live)
'Live'! 😊
I can't wait for you watch some of his rap. Murderer is awesome, Genesis is incredible but my absolute number 1 Ren tune, for me, is Power.
I love your reactions ❤❤❤
You rant away my lovely 🫶 I am here as much for you as Ren
I would love you to react to Chinchilla - Fingers LIVE and for something a bit more fun how about What You Want by Ren, his homage to the Beastie Boys
Jake this is incredibly beautiful 😁🙁
If you are ready for it, 'Crutch' with Bibi is an early one from 2015 and on Ren's Freckled Angel album. It is a heavy one from before he found out he had Lyme. It might come close to home though so make sure you are in a good place. 'Power' is a lighter one to do.
I hope Ren will be back in Brighton when you move there. I think he has gotten wandering feet at the moment. Thank you for your reaction. Ren and Chinchilla are amazing.
Romain from The Big Push released a new song a couple of days ago, it's so good, it's called Take it All And Let Me Go😁
Try Chinchillas Fingers live it's an incredible performance.
Love that youre going to Brighton! Love your honesty. Great reaction
Great reaction! ❤
You need to go down the Chinchilla route too. Watch Fingers the live version. You will love it.
My husband is a deeply sensitive person and a real music lover. He also had his fair share of traumas in life. Thinking he would be the perfection candidate, I put together a Ren playlist for him, hoping Ren would help him process some of that crap he’s dealing with.
So he watched 2 clips, and thought it was good… and jumped right at playing all his music while going about his business. I’m so disappointed that he didn’t take the time to feel it :-( I guess it wasn’t the right moment for him.😞
Try the chapters 1-8 telling his story he released them each day before he dropped troubles.
I get completely what u mean in ur outro. The songs feel like u wanna keep them cuz they hit u on a personal level wh3n u find another RENagade in the wild tho it is a lot of fun. My ringtone is the guitar intro to HI REN and when I see someone who recognized it it's a great feeling
Seven sins is a must ❤❤
Righto I'm in, subbed.
I think you need some Re-take action.
Right Here Right Now Fatboy Slim Re-take.
Cheers from Australia 🍻
I like ur reactions to Ren, hope u do 1 on 'Dominoes', beautiful dong.
I love Ren and the songs "hi ren" and "the tale of Jenny and Screech" went straight to my heart. But I have to say (I know it's an unpopulair opinion) the rest doesn't get me as much. I love Ren's story and the way he is, but I haven't found another song yet that hit me as hard as the other ones. But I will keep following him and his songs, for he is an amazing artist/performer/story teller ❤
Power is amazing beside slaughterhouse it's my favourite
❤❤❤

I can’t believe I’m gonna stray from Ren for a moment. But it would be nice for you to see a bit of Chinchilla’s work - she wears the nails for “armor” to fend off her stage fright. She has one massive banger (amongst many) called “Little Girl Gone” and it has a really great music video where she’s badass. She’s also an independent artist and self produces like Ren. They (she and Ren) have also busked together and she loved it - was a new phenomenon for her and she jumped in with him so well. But, yeah, give Little Girl Gone video a watch one day. I’d love to see your reaction to it.
That said, great reaction. And I will always love your Ren reactions. A quick alert though: if you venture into his diss track called “Kujo Beatdown” try to get the back story first as it makes the viewing clearer.
Keep on keeping on!
I think what you're feeling is a deep personal connection with Ren. It may seem unbelievable that someone you don't know and who doesn't know you can make you feel this way. How can an artist touch you like this? You know it's true within yourself and it is something that you can't imagine anyone else feels.
Each of us are surprised that another person feels Ren as deeply as we do. You'll get used to this phenomenon quickly.
Ren transcends the human experience, affects us and joins us at a deep level. It's simple but wonderous thing that Ren's music does.
A WORD OF WARNING .... Do no say the word 'Su!c!de' or write it in your thumbnails. YT will have at you for it; demonetization and the like. So many other ways to say it that everyone understands. Offed himself. Un-alived, is a popular one. She removed herself. They made themselves no longer here. Erased himself. She S-worded herself. Etc, etc, etc. You can speak to other reactors on YT about it if you need help or ideas. Just a little fyi.
LOVED your reaction. You are a natural. Keep up the good work. I've seen a couple of your reaction vids and keep coming bac for more. Big love. 🧡
I’m a little sad that I’m missing some of your videos cause I can’t get on TikTok
