WARNING: If you this that this was dramatic, theatrical, and heartwrenching, just wait til you watch Ren's "Tale of Jenny and Screech (Full version).if you want something the complete opposite (ie light and fun), try Ren's "what you want" which is very fun and beastie boys sounding. GREAT REACTION!!!Never feel the need to apologize for crying. Your genuineness (and people like Ren's) is why we come here.😊
Came here to say exactly this Jenny and screech and violence. Tales are definitely a whirlwind of emotion. You should definitely get some tissues ready lol girl I’m right there with you. I’ve had to deal with trauma for years before I got help it’s seriously so enlightening to hear someone speak so brutally honest about what they really hear inside of themselves about themselves because that’s some thing that took me my whole life to do when I finally found my husband and started going to therapy to actually deal with things I promise you that you’re not the only one who has done this reaction and got emotional in that moment where they felt some thing they recognize and relate to so deeply. ❤ welcome to the renegades.❤❤❤❤
Also, would like to say that since listening to Rend music, I have worked harder in therapy to understand myself and learn my weaknesses and face them. And I have learned what acceptance actually feels like. You can say that you can except some thing, but whether you really do except it or not, nobody else knows but you and sometimes even you don’t know until you hit a point in your life where the last straw has been broken.❤❤ I also learned that you can’t be afraid to feel your feelings that they are there for a reason so the point isn’t not to be sad and just be happy to be able to coherently work through each emotion and understand why you’re feeling that way and if it’s necessary to feel that way.❤
Wow yes everyone is saying I should see that one as well .. I need to hv my tissues on stand by lol .. never been so open before . Thank you all for your kind words.. this truly helped me ❤
I prefer this track to the tale of Jenny and Screech to be honest, you probably have but check Money Game part 3 that just dropped, I think he just eclipsed everything he already did with it. its that good. Jenny and Screech is masterful story telling, but Hi Ren is deeper its beyond mental health its even deeper than that its about good and evil and how that is a part of our humanity. I feel like Money Game part 3 combines the story telling of Jenny & Screech and teh depth and humanity of Hi Ren and takes it to a new level
I am a 50+ year old man. I have probably seen this song at least a hundred times (mostly in reactions) and it still makes me cry about half of the time, including this time. You should never have to apologize for being empathetic. Empathy is something to be admired. Thank you for this genuine reaction.
I have watched 200 times maybe more, your reaction is genuine and honest and proves you have a good heart. very sincere video. all my love. REN IS NOW No.1 in album charts, well deserved x
❤Really.... never any need to apologise for crying. There is a pretty special community around Ren that you wonderful reactors have helped to build and we are all sharing our feelings and supporting each other. Love from the UK❤
You’re the first reactor who started crying early like I did. Like you, I felt overwhelmed almost immediately, because I recognized that voice; it growls at me everyday but I never expected to hear it from someone else’s mouth.
I'm 72 years old and the first 20 or so times I listened I needed a tissue with me each time. It is a DEEPLY moving message. Tears SHOULD flow it shows YOUR HUMANITY! That's a good thing!
I listened to this song for the first time 2 days ago. I've gone around and listened to every reaction I could find and cried with every one of them. This song is a masterpiece. Thank you for your reaction, I cried right along with you.. My son keeps strolling by here and there saying " OMG not again MOM !!" 🤣😂😅 I have Hi Ren fever lol
I smile when I see reactors cry watching this song. It just proves over and over again how powerful music can be and how brilliant Ren is at evoking emotion and thought with his music. You're in for a fun ride. You might check out the official video for "Murderer", since you already did the live version. And you should check out Money Game parts one and two because part three is gonna drop in just a few days. Blessings.
The prefect reaction ❤ You should check out Ren's thank you to 1m subscribers, to help gain a insight into how humble and special he really is. You could put it at the start of your next Ren reaction. Can't wait to see you react to more Ren Thank you ❤
You don't need to apologise. Ren's fans are genuinely lovely and very supportive of each other and of reactors. You have a really gentle energy which is quite special. Be kind to yourself, you deserve your compassion too. I look forward to seeing more reactions from you. I won't tell you Ren's story, others do it far better
For me the tears started early, it feels like being seen, being heard, we hear someone echoing thoughts we've had and being brave enough to put them out there. It's brutal and beautiful and captivating and inspiring xx
Your words at the end "WoW" just about sums it all up perfectly. That was my initial reaction while bathing in tears as well. The realness of this masterpiece hits hard... No matter what walks of life we may come from, what status we may hold in society, or the severity of our struggles and inner demons, no matter all of that this is relatable to each and every single person on the planet. And to portray it so accurately visually, sonically and verbally like Ren did, is something really extraordinary. As Ren himself says in the piece, it has been done before, but not to this level and accuracy. Everything about this masterpiece is so spot on. It not only tells his story, it also have the divine and demonic elements as a vehicle to convey his struggle and to show us all that this struggle is not unique, but is core to our human existence. The duality of the dark and the light and the battlefield where the fight occur, our psychological domain, is what we are as human beings and balancing this is what life is about.
I only came to your channel for the Ren reaction but stayed and subscribed because of you. As a 50 yr old guy it does my heart and mind good to see people of your generation react like this to a song like this. It gives me hope that humanity isn't lost...Never apologize for crying and stay true to yourself. You are beautiful inside and out and as a part of the Ren community I think you'll find success, happiness and contentment within yourself and maybe some answers you're looking for. I loved the genuine reaction...keep going x
Thank you so much . Yes it truly helped me and I wasn't expecting that and the emotions that came . And I am truly grateful for the love and support thank you ❤🎉
I was first introduced to Ren with this song back in February. I had never seen or felt anything like it ever. I immediately was crying just like you and then proceeded to watch it over and over and cried so many times with watching others react to it. In a way I fell in love and have been on REN’s journey ever since. It has changed music for me and how I look at and treat others. It’s always great to see others have the same feeling after watching. Thank you ❤
Also listen to Sam Tompkins!!! Songs time will fly and lose it all, and I promise you will go through about 50 tissues😂❤ but the message is so insanely beautiful and haunting all at the same time and his voice I just can’t even explain… Sam is also Ren’s best friend and they performed on the streets together busking that’s how they met. It’s a beautiful story. I hope you stay and get to meet the rest of the awesome people involved in REN’s music, and journey.
You don't have to apologize for being a loving compassionate human being. The world 'Gaia' needs more love, we all need to show each other more love and respect. Your tears are a beautiful expression and speak to empathy. So thank you for your love.
Yes!! Even when playing for people in real life I try to time it so they don't have much else on that day or the next day. This song occurrence requires recovery time
Awww I'm super sensitive to energies and have strong emotional reactions to things too. I cried when I first heard it too and still find myself tearing up at times during certain parts (the hope part and when he switches to singing I've found to be the most powerful) even though I have heard this song more times than I can count at this point. Ren's great at drawing emotions out of people. I found myself crying a lot when I went through his music and more than once found myself saying, "Damn you, Ren! Stop making me cry." When I thought about it though it felt good to cry and it felt healing. Throughout my life I've felt like my super sensitivity meant I was weak and I had to toughen up to fit in so I grew to hate it when people saw me cry and am finally now embracing my sensitivity and learning how to use it in ways that benefit me and those around me. I find it very brave of you to put yourself out there like that. It really does help & inspire people like me. ✌️&❤️
"So cower the man ive become, As I sing from the top of my lungs, That I wont retire ill stand in your fire, inspire the meak to be strong " This line always gets me especially the first time as it was the first time hearing how amazing his singing voice was as well as how meaningful the lyrics are. I believe Ren is such a great example of what human beings should aspire to be. He is able to recognize his dark side yet shine so bright he can have such a profound impact on our society at a time we truly need it.
@@independentinstallations8419 Finding Ren and his music has made me question if there is such a thing as fate because I found him at a crucial time in my life and the strength of my reaction to Hi Ren has given me a whole new outlook on things. I am bed bound at this time in my life so I have been using that time I have that others might not have to learn about myself and apply that knowledge to understand other people and what makes them tick. I relate so much to Ren in so many ways and am so thankful I found him and his music as it's inspiring me more every day to find healthier ways of expressing my emotions and connecting to others and I've learned a lot. The world does need him and others like him right now as it seems more and more people are digging their heals in and seeing people they might not agree with as their enemy instead of taking time to see where the other side is coming from and relating to them in some way. People need to see their opponents as humans they can relate to because the one thing we all have in common is our instinct to survive and can relate to how it feels when you perceive that to be threatened in any way and it branches out to our loved ones who would be the ones carrying our memories when we die especially children who literally carry parts of you. We all want to know our lives had meaning and our stories matter.
Hey hey I honestly wasn't expecting this . I was totally blind sided. I am usually a very shy person and won't let folks see me cry .. this was the most open I have been .. but wanted to share it cause it really touched me .. the outpouring of love was amazing 👏 and helped me realize I am not alone ... Ren brought us all together ❤ thank you
You have such a beautiful way with music you can take it and play it and make someones day being that it comes from your heart i can't emphasize enough the impact it has on a normal person's body the closest i can come to explaining it is just imagine youre entire body being overwashed with a blanket of warm love over you're entire body very slowly ❤😊🥰👍
I find it strange when people don't get emotional..... His words cut deep. Great reaction be you 👌tears and all ✌️❤️ New subscriber from Scotland 🏴
Your crying was beautiful. It made me cry along with you & I KNEW what to expect. The song resonates with everyone bcuz I think we ALL have felt or experienced this battle within ourselves. Thank you for sharing your reaction.
There is true beauty in seeing someone react to a piece of music, and watching their emotions fill up in whatever direction. To see your jaw tense up and the muscle at the back flex is so powerful. Along with all the other subtle tweaks in the sides of your mouth, and those moments when your hands naturally and involuntary clasp together. My apologies if I sound a little creepy, but I have come to see all these little things as the truest emotive of the spirit of one human being communicating to another subconsciously. It is fantastic. You are a true soul. Subscribed. ❤
Lol wow that's amazing the close attention to detail u pay lol awesome thank you so much . I was very vulnerable here didn't expect to be moved like this . Thank you for your support ❤
It's good that you've come to Hi Ren early in your listenings to him. I'm commenting after only a few seconds. There'll be more tears! I'm looking forward to this, catch ya on the flip side. I'm excited for you and the journey you're about to take ❤
BEAUTIFUL BEAUTIFUL BEAUTIFUL reaction. Thank you for being as vulnerable in you reaction as Ren is in his music.I cant wait to follow you through this journey you are about to be overtaken by! Ill be watching!
I have watched probably 100 Hi-Ren reactions (just a guess) and this is one of my favorites!! You connected with the message of the song right away! Don’t apologize for crying, you were quiet and cute about it!! Thanks for this reaction!! Much love sent from me to you!! ❤❤❤
Great human reaction! This guy's music and videos are incredible, you have begun the journey! I'm sorry to say there will be more tears but also lots of joy too! Enjoy the rabbit hole!
What a great reaction, thank you for sharing. I've been watching people react to Ren for 8 months now and it still does not get old. None of us are alone and that is what each of Ren's songs are showing the world. I've subscribed to come along on your journey into the World of Ren.
As others have said you have no reason to apologise for crying. This response is very common among reactors and viewers. It shows that you care and you showed empathy and vulnerability and that earns subscription. Thank you
Never be sorry for crying, I am a 65 year old man and my son introduced me to this young genius, I spend most of my time crying listening to him, And it is a very healthy thing.
Never apologise for crying. A human being that can not cry is flawed. I loved your sensitivity. This is a powerful song and a wonderful reaction. Thank you
This is the kind of artistry that gives "broken" people hope. Ren, through this performance piece, has become to a lot of people exactly what he stated in the song, "...the voice that you hear when you loosen the noose on the rope". So powerful, so impactful. The song structure itself is incredible. It starts off as a battle between his positive (Angel) and negative (Demon) aspects, the negative then makes an overpowering last ditch effort to reign supreme, tearing free and trying to take control, but ultimately fails as the final act, being the "God" aspect, emerges Triumphant, though still acknowledging and accepting that it will ALWAYS be a battle because we are all "a coin with 2 different sides". It's a beautifully cathartic and raw musical masterpiece. Ren is truly special. Welcome to the Ren rabbit-hole, it's a trip worth taking. This was the 4th take he did and yes, it was done live. Wait until you hear some of his other stuff, especially his storytelling ("The Tale of Jenny & Screech"). You haven't even touched the breadth of this young man's talent yet. The pig character (imo) represents the doctors and therapist who have essentially butchered him for years through their misdiagnosis. It's the system that focuses on peddling more pills than on genuinely trying to help to fix broken/ill people, caring more about profit than individual health. The bastardization of the hippocratic oath. He literally thought he was going insane because he was told repeatedly that the pain and symptoms he was experiencing were all in his head (psychosomatic). He had reached a point where he literally resigned himself to dying before he reached 30. Turns out he had Lyme's disease the whole time and it ran rampant through his system for 10 years, even to the point of causing brain damage. Ironically, if Ren hadn't gone through what he has, would he have ever made the art he has? There's no question that his suffering has shaped his music and now he's finally getting the recognition he undoubtedly deserves. I've said it before, I'll say it again, Ren is special.
You are such a beautiful soul, with such empathy! This song makes me cry everytime I hear it, which is repeated often I must say. A true masterpiece! Great reaction, and you earned the sub! Thank you!
Yes, Ren was misdiagnosed with Bipolar Disorder (and possibly Chronic Fatigue syndrome) and for years was put on antipsychotic medication and underwent mental therapy. He was finally correctly diagnosed as suffering from Lymes disease (which had gone untreated for all those years). He is now receiving treatment but it's likely that having Lymes disease for so long without treatment caused some irreparable damage, including autoimmunity.
You're right, we don't know you, but your reaction told us so much. You got it and at a very deep and personal level. We saw every lyrical, emotional gut punch hit you, so we got to know you a little.
Thank you for this authentic reaction! Crying to this song means understanding it. To be touched, to be moved is the basis for learning from it. Ren is genious!
Despite that every time I see this I am in tears at the noose line. I can't stop. I have heard the voice, and literally took off the noose. I know every word of the end, I can repeat word for word, but when Ren puts his energy in with it, I make it to "rise in the east and settle on the ocean floor" before I start breaking up.
Lol thank you yes been meaning to do more baby metal but the copyright is killing me .. lol .I am working on it tho you know I love them .. coming really soon
I will add this young child of the most high. You care precious in the eyes of your creator. A child of the most high king. Who truly care for you . God bless you.
Great video. You can tell pretty quickly you’re one of us. You can’t understand it unless you have it. I’m so grateful to Ren. He’s had a nuclear impact on my life and I feel liberated and a weird sense of relief. I hope you’re doing ok. Well done for being such a positive person despite the struggles you go through. I was extremely touched by your reaction video. Take care of yourself.
Hey hey thank you so much . I do feel apart of a bigger community when I listen to ren and hear the stories of the people who can relate relate him . I am doing ok Ren had given me lots of understanding. I am glad you enjoyed my reaction it was hope that it can truly reach someone 😊 thank you for your support and concern . I feel really grateful 🙏
Amazing reaction and felt your emotion; the lad is a genius, embrace the kid as being innovative is rare today in the industry; his diversity is his genius
Sick Boi is #1 on the UK charts in its first week... He did it his way without major label support, he is by far the best new artist in the world. It seems like it couldn't happen to a better guy, real bright spot for this year.
My fone gone weird, can't edit my earlier comment. Your unguarded and natural reactions throughout were beautiful to behold. I think we all tear up at this one, I think it took 20 listens for me before I got through dry eyed. After untold listens that's still not guaranteed! Now you've heard Ren, you'll be doing lots more reaction videos, I predict. You'll find us Ren supporters (I baulk at saying 'Renegades'!) to be a friendly, thoughtful lot. Love light & peace xx
Island Girl .... No apologies necessary.... WE ALL(those of us who understand the struggle) cried at this vid.... his struggle is real as is ours and he encapsulated it beautifully and viscerally.... you seem like a good soul... and its my first time here... i wish you peace and tranquility in your life... thank you for reacting.... ✌🙂🙃
Never apologize for tears as they are meant to heal one's heart! Spot on as your recognition as to concept was instant so your on the empaths path. Blessed!
At a rather young age Ren had just been signed to Sony Records and Ren was trying to record his 1st album but he kept feeling very ill and could not perform but the Doctors couldn't find anything. Eventually his contract with Sony Expired and they did not renew it. For years the Doctors kept telling Ren all his issues were in his head and they treated him as having mental issues. Lymes Disease is hard to detect unless it is checked for specifically and it took YEARS for the Doctors to find it. Ren is now in Treatment in Canada and doing much better. Welcome to the RENegades!
Beautiful Enjoyed every second of that. Be yourself, don't worry about feeling emotion. We're right there with you. That's been me almost every time I watch this video.
I hear ya! Many cry because of the raw truth of this song. You said that other people suffer from this. You do too. Everyone does. That’s why you are crying. Cheers.
Depending in your mood he has a song for everything ....I can't wait for you to see all his different kinds of music....and im in love with your accent...its amazing
Oh you will need a box of tissues ...maby a pair of boxing gloves...some songs you don't want to react to before bed ...my favorite is how to be me ....its gospel like and so raw and beautiful..softens my heart
This performance hits pretty hard. I feel sorry for anyone that sees it for the first time and doesn't cry! Your reaction was beautiful and obviously heartfelt.
Love your reaction. Check out Ren murderer - Barrington levy hook. Also big push - I shot the sheriff. Also - losing it, the hunger, and more and more.
This may be my favorite reaction for two reasons. One, it’s hard find someone who knows his music BEFORE seeing Hi-Ren, it’s great to see someone who knows his brilliance and still be blown away. Two. God, I cried with you. And that’s enough.
Dear gal, THANK YOU for showing your emotions and shared them! I admire your SINCERITY as well as your PERSEVERANCE - you continued, no matter what! It seems to me you have been going through a lot yourself. Build yourself on your experience! The harder your experience, the stronger your building. Cheers!
Your reaction is probably closer than any other reactor I've seen to being like my own reaction. I can no longer count the number of times I have watched/heard this song, but I know I watched it on repeat for an entire afternoon after first learning of it, and it hit the same way every time.
Thank you for your reaction to this Ren video. Yes, Ren is remarkable. Please don't apologize for crying, you must be yourself, and we respect you for it. I want to hear more from you and I have subscribed.
This was one of the most beautiful and genuine reactions I’ve seen. I watch a lot of reaction videos, and particularly for this song as it also resonated deeply with me. It clearly hit you as hard as it hit me. Your reaction was so genuine it brought a tear to my eye as it reminded me so much of my own the first time I watched it. Thank you. ❤
My dear, I've watched dozens of reactions to this amazing song over the last year, and honestly yours is one of the best & most touching ones yet. Thumbs up, lady...goddess bless you ❤❤❤
🫶 Keep reacting to more REN. Any song. 🎵 Every song. 🎶 Each song is unique and better than the last. 🤗 We are so happy that you have fallen into the Ren rabbit hole. 🥰 It is so precious to see the world healing together. 😍 Enjoy! 🤝
Ren is the Original "Bardcore Genre Bender" The Master Bard himself ( Shakespeare ) would have understood exactly where Ren was coming from. Ren isn't just a songwriter but rather a Performance Art Master who blends music and character acting from all the styles over the last 500 years and makes it modern and relatable to all generations even if normally you may not be a fan of whatever genre he is currently performing. While most good Performers can envoke some emotions in their audience, Ren is an Emotion Master who has control of all of them, From the Feel Good Vibes of Bongo Bong, to the Rebellion of Illist Of Our Time, to the Tragedy of Jenny and Screech, to the Mind Bending Rap Flow of Losing It, and the Internal Psych War of Hi Ren, Ren has it All! The Ren Rabbit Hole is Deep and Powerful! Get Ready for the Ride of your Life!
WARNING: If you this that this was dramatic, theatrical, and heartwrenching, just wait til you watch Ren's "Tale of Jenny and Screech (Full version).if you want something the complete opposite (ie light and fun), try Ren's "what you want" which is very fun and beastie boys sounding.

Came here to say exactly this Jenny and screech and violence. Tales are definitely a whirlwind of emotion. You should definitely get some tissues ready lol girl I’m right there with you. I’ve had to deal with trauma for years before I got help it’s seriously so enlightening to hear someone speak so brutally honest about what they really hear inside of themselves about themselves because that’s some thing that took me my whole life to do when I finally found my husband and started going to therapy to actually deal with things I promise you that you’re not the only one who has done this reaction and got emotional in that moment where they felt some thing they recognize and relate to so deeply. ❤ welcome to the renegades.❤❤❤❤
Also, would like to say that since listening to Rend music, I have worked harder in therapy to understand myself and learn my weaknesses and face them. And I have learned what acceptance actually feels like. You can say that you can except some thing, but whether you really do except it or not, nobody else knows but you and sometimes even you don’t know until you hit a point in your life where the last straw has been broken.❤❤ I also learned that you can’t be afraid to feel your feelings that they are there for a reason so the point isn’t not to be sad and just be happy to be able to coherently work through each emotion and understand why you’re feeling that way and if it’s necessary to feel that way.❤
Wow yes everyone is saying I should see that one as well .. I need to hv my tissues on stand by lol .. never been so open before . Thank you all for your kind words.. this truly helped me ❤
I prefer this track to the tale of Jenny and Screech to be honest, you probably have but check Money Game part 3 that just dropped, I think he just eclipsed everything he already did with it. its that good. Jenny and Screech is masterful story telling, but Hi Ren is deeper its beyond mental health its even deeper than that its about good and evil and how that is a part of our humanity. I feel like Money Game part 3 combines the story telling of Jenny & Screech and teh depth and humanity of Hi Ren and takes it to a new level

You should never have to apologize for being empathetic. Empathy is something to be admired. Thank you for this genuine reaction.
72 yo and I have listened 100 times. More perhaps. My favorite song of all time. Ren is a genius. Your reaction is spot on.
Well said makes me a wingebag aswell!😢😊
Wow I am truly moved by the love recieved thank you so much ❤❤

Echoing the love from Australia, if you don't cry are you really listening?
we all cried every time -about 100 times now for me
Thank you so much for the love and support ❤

I cried so many times. When I first heard this it moved something inside me. Powerful ❤

It really touched me
She's not the first the first to cry early. Stop it

I listened to this song for the first time 2 days ago. I've gone around and listened to every reaction I could find and cried with every one of them. This song is a masterpiece. Thank you for your reaction, I cried right along with you.. My son keeps strolling by here and there saying " OMG not again MOM !!" 🤣😂😅 I have Hi Ren fever lol
thank you im 54 been struggling with mental health for years Ren taught me its ok to ask for help , nothing to be ashamed about
Yes he teaches us all bravery and openness. It's life changing and so important xxx
Wow I understand and I really I am glad I got to experience this and meet amazing strong people like you .. keep fighting that's most important 🙏🙏🙏🙏
Btw, many consider his song "Sick boi" a natural continuation of the themes of this song. Check it out when you get a chance
I smile when I see reactors cry watching this song. It just proves over and over again how powerful music can be and how brilliant Ren is at evoking emotion and thought with his music. You're in for a fun ride.
You might check out the official video for "Murderer", since you already did the live version.
And you should check out Money Game parts one and two because part three is gonna drop in just a few days.
Blessings.
Yes wow I am shocked 😮never expected to be moved like this. Truly amazing and I am checking out all thank you
The prefect reaction ❤
You should check out Ren's thank you to 1m subscribers, to help gain a insight into how humble and special he really is. You could put it at the start of your next Ren reaction.
Can't wait to see you react to more Ren
Thank you ❤
Thank you! Will have a look . Plan to dive into his music 🎶 he truly moved me
You don't need to apologise. Ren's fans are genuinely lovely and very supportive of each other and of reactors. You have a really gentle energy which is quite special. Be kind to yourself, you deserve your compassion too. I look forward to seeing more reactions from you.
I won't tell you Ren's story, others do it far better
For me the tears started early, it feels like being seen, being heard, we hear someone echoing thoughts we've had and being brave enough to put them out there. It's brutal and beautiful and captivating and inspiring xx
It was also very scary for me to .. like wow this is being played out for me ❤
Never be afraid to show your emotions. You are human.❤️
Your words at the end "WoW" just about sums it all up perfectly.
That was my initial reaction while bathing in tears as well.
The realness of this masterpiece hits hard...
No matter what walks of life we may come from, what status we may hold in society, or the severity of our struggles and inner demons, no matter all of that this is relatable to each and every single person on the planet.
And to portray it so accurately visually, sonically and verbally like Ren did, is something really extraordinary.
As Ren himself says in the piece, it has been done before, but not to this level and accuracy.
Everything about this masterpiece is so spot on.
It not only tells his story, it also have the divine and demonic elements as a vehicle to convey his struggle and to show us all that this struggle is not unique, but is core to our human existence.
The duality of the dark and the light and the battlefield where the fight occur, our psychological domain, is what we are as human beings and balancing this is what life is about.

Anyone who knows REN knows that REN needs to see this reaction....
I was first introduced to Ren with this song back in February. I had never seen or felt anything like it ever.

Amazing thank you for sharing . Ren is truly an inspiration 💖
Ren is such a beautiful human who reminds all of us it's okay to be human and feel into the human experience.
True thank you so much ❤
Most beautiful reaction. I cried many times watching this amazing work of art.
Wow, thank you so much . It was such an amazing experience for me . And the love received made me feel so comforted and safe thank you
Also listen to Sam Tompkins!!! Songs time will fly and lose it all, and I promise you will go through about 50 tissues😂❤ but the message is so insanely beautiful and haunting all at the same time and his voice I just can’t even explain… Sam is also Ren’s best friend and they performed on the streets together busking that’s how they met. It’s a beautiful story. I hope you stay and get to meet the rest of the awesome people involved in REN’s music, and journey.
No apologies needed! So many of us have gone ourselves in tears from this song.
All Ren reactions should include tissues. ❤️
I agree wow never cried so much ❤
You don't have to apologize for being a loving compassionate human being. The world 'Gaia' needs more love, we all need to show each other more love and respect. Your tears are a beautiful expression and speak to empathy. So thank you for your love.
Wow thank you so much for all the love ❤
This song is a lot. We know. We've all been here.
Yes!! Even when playing for people in real life I try to time it so they don't have much else on that day or the next day. This song occurrence requires recovery time
You’re quickly going to become a fan favorite with these reactions. You do more Ren and we’ll be here!
I definitely plan to . He moved me ❤
Awww I'm super sensitive to energies and have strong emotional reactions to things too. I cried when I first heard it too and still find myself tearing up at times during certain parts (the hope part and when he switches to singing I've found to be the most powerful) even though I have heard this song more times than I can count at this point. Ren's great at drawing emotions out of people. I found myself crying a lot when I went through his music and more than once found myself saying, "Damn you, Ren! Stop making me cry." When I thought about it though it felt good to cry and it felt healing. Throughout my life I've felt like my super sensitivity meant I was weak and I had to toughen up to fit in so I grew to hate it when people saw me cry and am finally now embracing my sensitivity and learning how to use it in ways that benefit me and those around me. I find it very brave of you to put yourself out there like that. It really does help & inspire people like me.
✌️&❤️
"So cower the man ive become, As I sing from the top of my lungs, That I wont retire ill stand in your fire, inspire the meak to be strong " This line always gets me especially the first time as it was the first time hearing how amazing his singing voice was as well as how meaningful the lyrics are. I believe Ren is such a great example of what human beings should aspire to be. He is able to recognize his dark side yet shine so bright he can have such a profound impact on our society at a time we truly need it.
@@independentinstallations8419 Finding Ren and his music has made me question if there is such a thing as fate because I found him at a crucial time in my life and the strength of my reaction to Hi Ren has given me a whole new outlook on things. I am bed bound at this time in my life so I have been using that time I have that others might not have to learn about myself and apply that knowledge to understand other people and what makes them tick. I relate so much to Ren in so many ways and am so thankful I found him and his music as it's inspiring me more every day to find healthier ways of expressing my emotions and connecting to others and I've learned a lot. The world does need him and others like him right now as it seems more and more people are digging their heals in and seeing people they might not agree with as their enemy instead of taking time to see where the other side is coming from and relating to them in some way. People need to see their opponents as humans they can relate to because the one thing we all have in common is our instinct to survive and can relate to how it feels when you perceive that to be threatened in any way and it branches out to our loved ones who would be the ones carrying our memories when we die especially children who literally carry parts of you. We all want to know our lives had meaning and our stories matter.
Hey hey I honestly wasn't expecting this . I was totally blind sided. I am usually a very shy person and won't let folks see me cry .. this was the most open I have been .. but wanted to share it cause it really touched me .. the outpouring of love was amazing 👏 and helped me realize I am not alone ... Ren brought us all together ❤ thank you
You have such a beautiful way with music you can take it and play it and make someones day being that it comes from your heart i can't emphasize enough the impact it has on a normal person's body the closest i can come to explaining it is just imagine youre entire body being overwashed with a blanket of warm love over you're entire body very slowly ❤😊🥰👍
I find it strange when people don't get emotional..... His words cut deep. Great reaction be you 👌tears and all ✌️❤️ New subscriber from Scotland 🏴
Your crying was beautiful. It made me cry along with you & I KNEW what to expect.
The song resonates with everyone bcuz I think we ALL have felt or experienced this battle within ourselves.
Thank you for sharing your reaction.
Wow, thank you for your support 🙏 ❤ we have to be strong 💪 ❤ I am so grateful for the love and kind words
There is true beauty in seeing someone react to a piece of music, and watching their emotions fill up in whatever direction. To see your jaw tense up and the muscle at the back flex is so powerful. Along with all the other subtle tweaks in the sides of your mouth, and those moments when your hands naturally and involuntary clasp together. My apologies if I sound a little creepy, but I have come to see all these little things as the truest emotive of the spirit of one human being communicating to another subconsciously. It is fantastic. You are a true soul. Subscribed. ❤
Lol wow that's amazing the close attention to detail u pay lol awesome thank you so much . I was very vulnerable here didn't expect to be moved like this . Thank you for your support ❤
It's good that you've come to Hi Ren early in your listenings to him. I'm commenting after only a few seconds. There'll be more tears! I'm looking forward to this, catch ya on the flip side. I'm excited for you and the journey you're about to take ❤
Thankyou for your honest reaction! People always seek truth in reactions.
BEAUTIFUL BEAUTIFUL BEAUTIFUL reaction. Thank you for being as vulnerable in you reaction as Ren is in his music.I cant wait to follow you through this journey you are about to be overtaken by! Ill be watching!
I have watched probably 100 Hi-Ren reactions (just a guess) and this is one of my favorites!! You connected with the message of the song right away! Don’t apologize for crying, you were quiet and cute about it!! Thanks for this reaction!! Much love sent from me to you!! ❤❤❤
Great human reaction! This guy's music and videos are incredible, you have begun the journey! I'm sorry to say there will be more tears but also lots of joy too! Enjoy the rabbit hole!
Lovely, sweet reaction. The goosebumps are strong with this one. Hugs.
What a great reaction, thank you for sharing. I've been watching people react to Ren for 8 months now and it still does not get old. None of us are alone and that is what each of Ren's songs are showing the world. I've subscribed to come along on your journey into the World of Ren.
Wow I wasn't expecting it. Lol but it helped me thank you ❤
Don't worry pal, I'm a 6ft 4, 18 stone, hairy arsed Scotsman and I have cried to this many times, like a baby. One love from Scotland. 💙
Oh, nearly forgot, never, NEVER apologise for tears. You showed us your true beauty. 💙
Awss thank you
Thank you❤ that was beautiful. It touched all of us🎉
As others have said you have no reason to apologise for crying. This response is very common among reactors and viewers. It shows that you care and you showed empathy and vulnerability and that earns subscription. Thank you
Thank you for your kind words ❤and support
Hugs and love from UK
Loved your reaction
💖💛💚
Never be sorry for crying, I am a 65 year old man and my son introduced me to this young genius, I spend most of my time crying listening to him, And it is a very healthy thing.
Never apologise for crying. A human being that can not cry is flawed. I loved your sensitivity. This is a powerful song and a wonderful reaction. Thank you
This is the kind of artistry that gives "broken" people hope. Ren, through this performance piece, has become to a lot of people exactly what he stated in the song, "...the voice that you hear when you loosen the noose on the rope". So powerful, so impactful. The song structure itself is incredible. It starts off as a battle between his positive (Angel) and negative (Demon) aspects, the negative then makes an overpowering last ditch effort to reign supreme, tearing free and trying to take control, but ultimately fails as the final act, being the "God" aspect, emerges Triumphant, though still acknowledging and accepting that it will ALWAYS be a battle because we are all "a coin with 2 different sides". It's a beautifully cathartic and raw musical masterpiece. Ren is truly special. Welcome to the Ren rabbit-hole, it's a trip worth taking. This was the 4th take he did and yes, it was done live. Wait until you hear some of his other stuff, especially his storytelling ("The Tale of Jenny & Screech"). You haven't even touched the breadth of this young man's talent yet.
The pig character (imo) represents the doctors and therapist who have essentially butchered him for years through their misdiagnosis. It's the system that focuses on peddling more pills than on genuinely trying to help to fix broken/ill people, caring more about profit than individual health. The bastardization of the hippocratic oath. He literally thought he was going insane because he was told repeatedly that the pain and symptoms he was experiencing were all in his head (psychosomatic). He had reached a point where he literally resigned himself to dying before he reached 30. Turns out he had Lyme's disease the whole time and it ran rampant through his system for 10 years, even to the point of causing brain damage. Ironically, if Ren hadn't gone through what he has, would he have ever made the art he has? There's no question that his suffering has shaped his music and now he's finally getting the recognition he undoubtedly deserves. I've said it before, I'll say it again, Ren is special.
Beautiful and genuine reaction….
I said you wouldn’t be disappointed, I’ll look forward to joining you on your REN journey….
👍🏼🇬🇧
thank you for reacting to my favourite artist ever please please more Ren ,sending big love from the UK ❤❤❤
Awwss thank you my pleasure 🙏
You are such a beautiful soul, with such empathy! This song makes me cry everytime I hear it, which is repeated often I must say. A true masterpiece! Great reaction, and you earned the sub! Thank you!
Bless u! Mylove ❤😢😢😢😢
Yes, Ren was misdiagnosed with Bipolar Disorder (and possibly Chronic Fatigue syndrome) and for years was put on antipsychotic medication and underwent mental therapy. He was finally correctly diagnosed as suffering from Lymes disease (which had gone untreated for all those years). He is now receiving treatment but it's likely that having Lymes disease for so long without treatment caused some irreparable damage, including autoimmunity.
No need for any apologies...your heartfelt emotional reaction was beautiful ! ❤😊
Thank you for allowing your emotions to be seen on this video. I also cry every time I listen to this song. Ren is someone very special.
You're right, we don't know you, but your reaction told us so much. You got it and at a very deep and personal level. We saw every lyrical, emotional gut punch hit you, so we got to know you a little.
True true ❤🙏
Best reaction I’ve ever seen ! Your facial expressions are amazing. You have no need to talk, as your face says it all.
Wow, thank you!
AMAZING reaction!! Ready for more plzzzzzzzz. ONE LOVE
1st set of “wooos” 🤔
2nd set of “wooos” 💃
I love how we all get it ❤️
Right?! ❤️
Thank you for this authentic reaction! Crying to this song means understanding it. To be touched, to be moved is the basis for learning from it. Ren is genious!
No need to apologize for having feelings. I've seen this song on 100+ different channels and I still cry . 💞💐
Despite that every time I see this I am in tears at the noose line. I can't stop. I have heard the voice, and literally took off the noose. I know every word of the end, I can repeat word for word, but when Ren puts his energy in with it, I make it to "rise in the east and settle on the ocean floor" before I start breaking up.
Best reaction ever! Never apologize for showing your true natural self. You showing that side of you shows how truly beautiful you are.
Thank you so much .. always hard to be vulnerable for me lol 😆 appreciate it
After a hundred times watching this, I still cry every single time.
Our body detoxifies itself when we cry, so we should cry regularly!
Lol I think I get my regular cry in alot on here lmao 🤣 😅
TY for reacting so well to this important song ♥ On a lighter note - if you ever manage to escape Ren then....more Babymetal please :)
Lol thank you yes been meaning to do more baby metal but the copyright is killing me .. lol .I am working on it tho you know I love them .. coming really soon
I understand that :) It has got WAY better recently too :( @@favouriteislandgirl
I will add this young child of the most high. You care precious in the eyes of your creator. A child of the most high king. Who truly care for you . God bless you.
Great video. You can tell pretty quickly you’re one of us. You can’t understand it unless you have it. I’m so grateful to Ren. He’s had a nuclear impact on my life and I feel liberated and a weird sense of relief. I hope you’re doing ok. Well done for being such a positive person despite the struggles you go through. I was extremely touched by your reaction video. Take care of yourself.
Hey hey thank you so much . I do feel apart of a bigger community when I listen to ren and hear the stories of the people who can relate relate him . I am doing ok Ren had given me lots of understanding. I am glad you enjoyed my reaction it was hope that it can truly reach someone 😊 thank you for your support and concern . I feel really grateful 🙏
Amazing reaction and felt your emotion; the lad is a genius, embrace the kid as being innovative is rare today in the industry; his diversity is his genius
I’ve watched a ton of Hi Ren reactions but I saved this one so I can send the link to my friends who are as impacted by Ren’s journey as we’ve been.❤️
Wow amazing thank you so much . He really changed my life
Sick Boi is #1 on the UK charts in its first week... He did it his way without major label support, he is by far the best new artist in the world. It seems like it couldn't happen to a better guy, real bright spot for this year.
My fone gone weird, can't edit my earlier comment.
Your unguarded and natural reactions throughout were beautiful to behold. I think we all tear up at this one, I think it took 20 listens for me before I got through dry eyed. After untold listens that's still not guaranteed! Now you've heard Ren, you'll be doing lots more reaction videos, I predict. You'll find us Ren supporters (I baulk at saying 'Renegades'!) to be a friendly, thoughtful lot. Love light & peace xx
Island Girl .... No apologies necessary.... WE ALL(those of us who understand the struggle) cried at this vid.... his struggle is real as is ours and he encapsulated it beautifully and viscerally.... you seem like a good soul... and its my first time here... i wish you peace and tranquility in your life... thank you for reacting.... ✌🙂🙃
Extremely talented!!! Ren!!! The Big Push also features him.
Great to see how deeply you connected with this. He's making a difference out there.
Never apologize for tears as they are meant to heal one's heart! Spot on as your recognition as to concept was instant so your on the empaths path. Blessed!
At a rather young age Ren had just been signed to Sony Records and Ren was trying to record his 1st album but he kept feeling very ill and could not perform but the Doctors couldn't find anything. Eventually his contract with Sony Expired and they did not renew it. For years the Doctors kept telling Ren all his issues were in his head and they treated him as having mental issues. Lymes Disease is hard to detect unless it is checked for specifically and it took YEARS for the Doctors to find it. Ren is now in Treatment in Canada and doing much better. Welcome to the RENegades!
Beautiful
Enjoyed every second of that. Be yourself, don't worry about feeling emotion. We're right there with you. That's been me almost every time I watch this video.
Thank you so much!
I hear ya! Many cry because of the raw truth of this song. You said that other people suffer from this. You do too. Everyone does. That’s why you are crying. Cheers.
Pretty sure I’ve seen all his reactions to this song and yours was the most beautiful. I cannot WAIT to watch others!
Depending in your mood he has a song for everything ....I can't wait for you to see all his different kinds of music....and im in love with your accent...its amazing
Oh you will need a box of tissues ...maby a pair of boxing gloves...some songs you don't want to react to before bed ...my favorite is how to be me ....its gospel like and so raw and beautiful..softens my heart
Awws thank you
You are not alone with these feelings. That's the whole point. It's always okay to cry. ❤
OMG I love your reaction! Welcome to the Ren wormhole. Thank you from North Caroline, USA.
You had a great reaction. Ren can make you cry like no one I've ever known. Love you and the best to you.
Yes so true thank you
This performance hits pretty hard. I feel sorry for anyone that sees it for the first time and doesn't cry! Your reaction was beautiful and obviously heartfelt.
Halito 👋🏽 thank you for sharing your reaction 🧡
I cry nearly every time I listen to this 🥹😉
Love your reaction. Check out Ren murderer - Barrington levy hook. Also big push - I shot the sheriff. Also - losing it, the hunger, and more and more.
She's already reacted to the acoustic version of Murderer. She loved it!
This may be my favorite reaction for two reasons. One, it’s hard find someone who knows his music BEFORE seeing Hi-Ren, it’s great to see someone who knows his brilliance and still be blown away. Two. God, I cried with you. And that’s enough.
Awss glad you enjoyed really means alot thank you 😊
Dear gal, THANK YOU for showing your emotions and shared them! I admire your SINCERITY as well as your PERSEVERANCE - you continued, no matter what! It seems to me you have been going through a lot yourself. Build yourself on your experience! The harder your experience, the stronger your building. Cheers!
Your reaction is probably closer than any other reactor I've seen to being like my own reaction. I can no longer count the number of times I have watched/heard this song, but I know I watched it on repeat for an entire afternoon after first learning of it, and it hit the same way every time.
Such a raw and powerful reaction. You have a very expressive face too
Thank you for your reaction to this Ren video. Yes, Ren is remarkable. Please don't apologize for crying, you must be yourself, and we respect you for it. I want to hear more from you and I have subscribed.
My pleasure thank you so much ❤
Cried with you.... once again... Thank you for sharing your emotions!
A beautiful and natural reaction. I have an autoimmune disease as well(graves) and this song makes me nearly cry every time.
Wow am so sorry
Great reaction ❤❤❤
Thank you for your honest and heartfelt reaction. As many others have said, no need to apologize for crying here, it just shows that you are human =D
That guy in the pig mask at the start is Blizzpig (Sean Livesey) from the band Evil Blizzard IF you check that band out, then you will see him there.
Honest reaction from your ❤ , perfect thank you
This was one of the most beautiful and genuine reactions I’ve seen. I watch a lot of reaction videos, and particularly for this song as it also resonated deeply with me. It clearly hit you as hard as it hit me. Your reaction was so genuine it brought a tear to my eye as it reminded me so much of my own the first time I watched it. Thank you. ❤
My dear, I've watched dozens of reactions to this amazing song over the last year, and honestly yours is one of the best & most touching ones yet. Thumbs up, lady...goddess bless you ❤❤❤
Glad you enjoyed . It surprised me lol
God is Great and u have a great ❤ jamrock girl!Much love
No need to apologize girl… I balled for a week watching this. Your reaction was very genuine and I love that so I’m subscribing.
Omg thank you so much ❤
🫶 Keep reacting to more REN. Any song. 🎵 Every song. 🎶 Each song is unique and better than the last. 🤗 We are so happy that you have fallen into the Ren rabbit hole. 🥰 It is so precious to see the world healing together. 😍 Enjoy! 🤝
I love Ren . Truly amazing 👏
Ren is the Original "Bardcore Genre Bender" The Master Bard himself ( Shakespeare ) would have understood exactly where Ren was coming from. Ren isn't just a songwriter but rather a Performance Art Master who blends music and character acting from all the styles over the last 500 years and makes it modern and relatable to all generations even if normally you may not be a fan of whatever genre he is currently performing. While most good Performers can envoke some emotions in their audience, Ren is an Emotion Master who has control of all of them, From the Feel Good Vibes of Bongo Bong, to the Rebellion of Illist Of Our Time, to the Tragedy of Jenny and Screech, to the Mind Bending Rap Flow of Losing It, and the Internal Psych War of Hi Ren, Ren has it All! The Ren Rabbit Hole is Deep and Powerful! Get Ready for the Ride of your Life!
Anyone else feel like Ren,s Grammys and interview with Oprah are coming? Lol
You aren’t alone, welcome to the rollercoaster, thanks ❤️✌🏻
