The artist of the last two decades that should read. This man is awesome and it's so heartwarming to see mind and Ren doing this. I'm an amateur luthier who's got skeletons but I'll face them publicly because of Rens music. I've tried it and I've been in a headspace where I'll say I'll watch one more Olympics or world cup then I'd be happy to end it. I'm in a far better place now emotionally and the trauma I've gone through has made me stronger. I love Rens message and I believe I hold similar beliefs and values. And it's again.... heartwarming to know there are a million plus people and counting, who think the same. Sorry for making this about me I'm just sharing my genuine thoughts and I do want to get noticed on RUclips. However I'm outcome independent. Doing this for the love of it and mentoring others to make their lives better. I'll be on this channel one day. Once my business takes off. I'm genuinely putting the money into community building projects and I mean that. I wanna open schools the lot. So watch out world for Ren an amazing talent and for afterlife guitars coming to a streaming service near you 😅
Ren to me represents what true artistry is and where it comes from. He puts it so well when he says: "The second I think about the intent of it, I feel like it's almost been spoiled, because I want it to be a true expression of me."
We met Ren during his visit to Beaumaris Lifeboat Station. He donated £21,000 to the RNLI as a gesture to all those that helped search for Joe and to help others in need. He met my wife and son and he is a truly amazing person. They say never to meet your heroes however Ren is an exception as he is all heart and truly inspiring. Being a self taught guitarist from North Wales myself I look up to him for all he has achieved. Thanks Ren. Diolch yn fawr.
Thank you ren. You help me clear my mind, losing my son when he was 21 was awful, I've seen many dark days. Im in my 50s.. your music is so inspirational
Ren is the best. Period. Ren is great at exposing the scariest part of ourself and helping you learn to accept the good with the bad and learn to love yourself and the journey you are on
My martial arts instructor who was in my life for 12 years, he meant the world to me and I lost him 3 years ago to cancer. He asked me when I first met him ‘whats the hardest thing in the world’ I had no idea what to say and he replied ‘to be a nice person’ not the answer I was expecting but over time became more profound. Ren is living proof, as well as being and absolute talent he is also a genuine nice person. Ren is the embodiment of those words. I miss my Sensei.
Ren is shockingly talented and so humble. Such a nice lad. I hope the industry doesn't change what he is. He's what my mother would have called 'an old soul'.
The whole community of Ren fans say that they are very grateful for the safe space and fertile void that is being created here. Thank you Mind for expanding this platform.
Appreciate Ren doing this. I know it's hard for him to take compliments, but he really has had a positive impact on the mental health of so many people simply by talking about his own mental health struggles. We all know we're not alone, and not in the general sense, but on a personal level by someone speaking in a way we can relate to.
Honestly Ren has a heart of gold, the camper van thing made me smile. Loving the rise of Ren, he waited to long for this & deserves it more than anyone
That is one of the most profound and spot one comments I have heard about Ren and the impact he has made - I wish he got a chance to read it but perhaps even more importantly - the people who listen to his music hopefully realize this also . Just saw this interview and my god - he is so authentic and exudes a calmness and sense of self knowledge and acceptance. ❤ from Canada
Ren is more than the Artist of a Generation; he is the most beautiful soul walking amongst us and we need to cherish him. I’m a 53-year-old grandmother and I used to deliver babies as a profession. I always considered it a privilege to be the person who placed a newborn into it’s mother’s arms; I knew I was witnessing the purest form of love exploding into life before my eyes. Now when I introduce people to Ren’s music I get that same feeling. He is not religious (neither am I) but he’s certainly a Spiritual Being having a Human experience. I’m grateful to be alive on this Earth at the same time as this remarkable man. He is a gift to Humanity in a very dark and difficult time.
Ren is a once in a lifetime inspirational artist and his music is now been used by health professionals around the world not only as a training aid but in therapy sessions I cant think of any other musician who as had such an impact on peoples well being on such a global scale. A true Ambassador of mental health 💙💙💙
Ren is the human humanity so desperately yearned for - a musical, poetical, artistic genius! An intelligent, raw & true soul of deep knowing & longing - Thank you Ren 🙏 Great interview too 👍🏻
"Hi Ren" showed people that making peace with yourself is the answer. That unwanted side everyone locked inside in their chests. Ren opened that box and showed people it was "okay". It was incredibly personal. It made an incredible impact on people because it allowed them to let go of those emotions too. Something not any artist has done before so precisely and honestly.
Thank you both. Many of us have experienced the pain and guilt of suic*de. As survivors and through personal experience. We NEED open and empathetic conversations, desperately. So, well done. So appreciative that you are both here to speak about the other side of life ❤
This was so good . MIND is a a wonderful charity in the UK - they made such a difference to my brother’s life and to see REn being interviewed by Mind just validates what we already know about Ren - a wonderful human being who is making such a difference .
Ren, I've been listening to your music for sometime now and you're incredible! I'm 41 and grew up listening to the likes of Prince, Genesis and my late Dad's favourite artist, Cat Stevens... You to me is what Cat Stevens was like to my Dad... My favourite artist of all time!!! And now my 6 year old son is listening with me just like I did with my Dad listening to Cat Stevens!!! I wish you every success and look forward to coming back to Brighton (I go there regularly) and watching you perform.
Great interview Ren!!! I think everyone who listens to your music knows that it comes from the heart. That's something that's missing in most other music these days. RENegades stand together!!
Many may not notice the technical aspects of this interview, but THANK YOU for moving the mic to the outer jacket vs on the inner t-shirt. Turned this from unlistenable to crispy clear and engaging. Shout out to the audio folks 😅😅
There are so many of us survivors who really do appreciate the music and genius of Ren - he has created a community of empathetic followers who understand issues surrounding mental health - generating the uncomfortable conversations. Thank you for sharing this interview.
Dear God, just listening to you talking about “losing your youth” the day that Joe died, was the same for me and my best friend Tia. You GET it. You expressed it so eloquently yet raw, beautifully yet brutal, deeply yet even deeper still…
I can't describe how much Ren's music has meant to me in my own recovery. It helped me unlock emotions I'd been repressing for so long that I didn't even recognise them anymore. His bravery in being vulnerable and starting so many more of these conversations will save lives. He will have a legacy that he will never know the full extent of. Now it's on us to keep the momentum on this movement. ❤
Ren is a special one. I see how his impact has helped others every day. He’s created an amazing community with amazing support. Thank you for the interview. 🐇🕳️🖤
Ren is a beautiful human being. I'm so glad I live in the time when he is creating his art. It's a bit like bearing witness to something that you know will become a remembered part of our collective history.
I am a 64 year old man. I was a teenager in the 70’s & listened to some the greatest musical talents around. As the decades went by I kinda lost interest in music, sure I liked a rock group or a musician here & there. In December 2022 I came across Ren Gill…his musical talent lured me in! I have listened to his music catalogue and read his story about his struggles. This young man is World Treasure!! We need him! RENegade!
Agree, I’m a 62 year old Brit bloke, I’ve not experienced these feeling of excitement and awe about an artist for decades. I encountered Ren in January this year before ‘Hi Ren’ exploded. I’m waiting for the rest of the World to catch up 👍🇬🇧
I totally relate to your comment. I'm a 63 year old woman, and I stopped listening to new music altogether. Then I happened upon Ren. No other artist induces cleansing tears like Ren. He definitely is a treasure
Thank you both for this interview on this incredibly important topic around suicide and artistic expression and how music / art can be powerful therapy Hi Ren turned up in my YT feed a few days after it’s release. I was, and still am, blown away by Ren’s artistry, wordsmith wizardry, musicianship, authenticity, courage and generosity. ‘I always feel a little bit lighter after (playing) it’ So many of us humans do everything to avoid emotional pain, to avoid vulnerability, to distract from and even deny our grief. Ren, and the interviewer (no name given I think?), I’m grateful for how you show us how singing, playing, expressing, listening to the saddest stories and the toughest emotions can be a powerful balm With immense gratitude and admiration ❤
God what a classically trained and talented, insightful, sensitive, and astute young man! Thank the Gods and the Goddesses for Ren - a "voice for the voiceless!"
😊 Thank you for giving us Ren fans such a well thought, caring and respectful interview. Truly enjoyed the conversation and it is truly wonderful to see another fan ask a few of the things I have wondered myself. You are clearly a Ren fan as the joy in asking him all your questions that any fan would want to. Well done sir. ❤❤ #thereneffect
Thank you for such a thoughtful interview. These issues are not easy to talk about and it's so important to push past the discomfort and into vulnerability. I am grateful to Ren for his willingness to share his raw self and his invitation to others to peel back the layers of their own healing.
What an exceptional guy! Phenomenal! Thanks Ren for helping us all to explain how we feel! For promoting and broadcasting positivity and empowerment to the world. Touching and emotional interview! Well worth ambassador for promoting positive mental health Ren. All round good guy x
Thank you Ren,,been having dark thoughts since my accident in 2019,Discovered your music and it was like you were reading my mind. So Bud ,Ren, a massive thank you and all the best.
I stumbled across Ren from the darkest place my mind has ever been and he is still slowly help pull me back from that void. Thanks for bringing him forward, this was lovely and will be a light for other lost souls to follow. 💙💙💙
I'm so very grateful that this situation gets talked about and not swept away as if by saying it out loud it will, "encourage", or urge people to do, "it ".If someone feels suicidal then they don't need any encouragement but they do need to be listened to and actually heard. I'm similar to you, thought about it, think about it and try to dismiss it. Then life happens and things are either okay or painful again. Ren's music has given me the kick up the arse I needed / need. It puts me in a good frame of mind and is a brilliant pick me up. But I feel for Ren that it must be a tremendous feeling of responsibility. It shouldn't be. We all make our own choices, it's just that if a certain music or singer or actor or painting of whatever it is lifts you up then that's a good thing. So sorry for blabbering on. I get carried away. Basically talking about things is good. For me Ren's words and music have helped enormously. But no pressure. Music is great.✌
Ren you are the best talent there is you are brilliant. Well respected as you should be! you are young and beautiful inside and out!! God Bless you I Love you
Thirty-three years on from losing my beautiful brother to suicide, Ren’s song expressed so much of what I have felt about su1c1de, the loss, heartache, empathy, loss of carefree youth etc. They are indeed indeed angels, perhaps the world wasn’t ready for them. Ren is an absolute treasure, witty, with extraordinary depth and emotional intelligence. You’re a special soul Ren Gill … thank you so, so much 🙏🏻😊👍💖
This is such a fantastic idea - we listen to songs that make us happy, sure, but we also listen to songs that we can relate to; songs that make us feel not so alone through the bad times. To go behind the scenes and explore the artist's experiences, we learn a valuable lesson - we ALL struggle at some point in our lives, but if there isn't always a way through immediately, there are ways to cope and avenues to take that will support us. Nobody should be alone.
Ren is an amazing artist. Thank you for interviewing him. The sound of the song and look of the video was the first time I saw and heard how it felt inside when I went through a major depression during college. Ren’s message is to hold on, it will pass and things can get better. That is so true!
Thank you both for this interview. I'm surprised it hasn't been flagged due to subject matter (watching it 2 hours from release). I pray they don't take it down. Ren, your words ring so true for so many. It's always a pleasure to learn about your process and journey. I believe your music and your message (and your gentle compassion for humanity) are literally raising the vibration of thousands upon thousands of souls, and soon, it will be millions. I feel so blessed that Hi, Ren came into my youtube feed and introduced me to you. I LOVE watching others experience your music for the first time. As always, sending you lots of love and healing energy. 💖
Fantastic interview. Ren is the most inspiring artist I have encountered in my life. If you haven’t listened to his music, do yourself a favour and check him out ❤❤❤
Ren - the artist of 2023. No one else comes close
100% honestly for the past 10 years but we just didn't know about him lol
Facts
The artist of the last two decades that should read. This man is awesome and it's so heartwarming to see mind and Ren doing this.
I'm an amateur luthier who's got skeletons but I'll face them publicly because of Rens music. I've tried it and I've been in a headspace where I'll say I'll watch one more Olympics or world cup then I'd be happy to end it. I'm in a far better place now emotionally and the trauma I've gone through has made me stronger. I love Rens message and I believe I hold similar beliefs and values. And it's again.... heartwarming to know there are a million plus people and counting, who think the same.
Sorry for making this about me
I'm just sharing my genuine thoughts and I do want to get noticed on RUclips. However I'm outcome independent. Doing this for the love of it and mentoring others to make their lives better. I'll be on this channel one day. Once my business takes off. I'm genuinely putting the money into community building projects and I mean that. I wanna open schools the lot. So watch out world for Ren an amazing talent and for afterlife guitars coming to a streaming service near you 😅
Absolutely. I hope interviews like this and the upcoming album release will bring him to an even wider audience.
Ye id say if the past 10/20 years and nobody comes close
❤

The man is a legend.
Lucky us !

Like fertile soil for potatoes 🥔 ❤
Ayyyy Disco Doc!

An amazing interview. It is so refreshing to see men talking about their feelings and the impact of this topic.
THE most important british artist and creator of our time , we are listening to your message mate.
Wow crying again. Love that Joes mum has her camper van.
I teared up when he talked about sharing the song and money with Joes mom.
Interviewing Ren was such a right thing to do. His music is exceptional, very thought provoking and in many cases so relatable.
Honestly Ren has a heart of gold, the camper van thing made me smile. Loving the rise of Ren, he waited to long for this & deserves it more than anyone
Thank you, Ren. Our emotional response is absolutely a part of your legacy, but not your responsibility.
That is one of the most profound and spot one comments I have heard about Ren and the impact he has made - I wish he got a chance to read it but perhaps even more importantly - the people who listen to his music hopefully realize this also .

That's a lovely way of putting it ☮
💯 🫂
Well said 😊
Well said. ❤️
dear cnn ... this is how you do it :) well done mind and ren
Well said.
You assume cnn wants to help people… they are malicious. They want to harm.
This man deserves all the publicity and love in the world. Making a difference to so many people. He's on a one 1 way ticket to the moon.
Awakening >>>
"If we look after our mental health as a collective, then our societies function much healthier"... Never a truer word spoken 🧡

Ren is the human humanity so desperately yearned for - a musical, poetical, artistic genius! An intelligent, raw & true soul of deep knowing & longing - Thank you Ren 🙏
Great interview too 👍🏻
What a beautiful old soul..thank you
We have been given the gift of Ren and the world is a better place for having him and his creations!

I’m so glad this is becoming a topic of conversation instead of a taboo. Talking helps! Trying to silence or sweep it to the side only hurts. ;

I lost two siblings to suicide. I’m so happy that Ren is giving people hope.
There are so many of us survivors who really do appreciate the music and genius of Ren - he has created a community of empathetic followers who understand issues surrounding mental health - generating the uncomfortable conversations. Thank you for sharing this interview.
Thanks for having this conversation and sharing your thoughts.
Ren is a gift to humanity from the universe. The scale of his talent and his wisdom is immeasurable. ❤
He is so humble and beautiful ❤
So great to see that a charity such as Mind is also showing the importance of an artist such as Ren and how music can be therapeutic.
Dear God, just listening to you talking about “losing your youth” the day that Joe died, was the same for me and my best friend Tia. You GET it. You expressed it so eloquently yet raw, beautifully yet brutal, deeply yet even deeper still…
Pure expression before objection I love that
Another great interview of Ren..
The fact that he still makes time while in treatment to bring a voice to a community in need.
What a legend.
I can't describe how much Ren's music has meant to me in my own recovery. It helped me unlock emotions I'd been repressing for so long that I didn't even recognise them anymore.
His bravery in being vulnerable and starting so many more of these conversations will save lives. He will have a legacy that he will never know the full extent of.
Now it's on us to keep the momentum on this movement. ❤
Ren is a special one. I see how his impact has helped others every day. He’s created an amazing community with amazing support. Thank you for the interview. 🐇🕳️🖤
And thanks to you Keeley for the amazing group on FB, such a wonderful community ❤️
Thanks for such an amazing interview on an increasingly crucial topic 💕
Great interview. Thanks for showing Ren some love. He's built up a really special community 💛
Ren is a beautiful human being. I'm so glad I live in the time when he is creating his art. It's a bit like bearing witness to something that you know will become a remembered part of our collective history.
Yes!

I’m 40 & totally agree with you fellow Renegade 👏🏼💯👏🏼💯👏🏼❤️🩹🫶🏼🎶✨
Thank you both for this interview on this incredibly important topic around suicide and artistic expression and how music / art can be powerful therapy
Hi Ren turned up in my YT feed a few days after it’s release. I was, and still am, blown away by Ren’s artistry, wordsmith wizardry, musicianship, authenticity, courage and generosity.
‘I always feel a little bit lighter after (playing) it’
So many of us humans do everything to avoid emotional pain, to avoid vulnerability, to distract from and even deny our grief.
Ren, and the interviewer (no name given I think?), I’m grateful for how you show us how singing, playing, expressing, listening to the saddest stories and the toughest emotions can be a powerful balm
With immense gratitude and admiration ❤
God what a classically trained and talented, insightful, sensitive, and astute young man! Thank the Gods and the Goddesses for Ren - a "voice for the voiceless!"
I can’t even put into words how amazing this guy is ❤️
Ren is saving lives
Ren has it all , the deepness to affect and the technique to give joy.
What a lovely raw and wonderful conversation. Ren definitely changed my life over the last year❤ all the compliments are well deserved Ren 🥰🥰
Well done MIND. REN is the best person to talk on these subjects. He has changed so many lives with his messages and lives the way he speaks. 😊❤
an amazing charity that has helped a lot of young people I have worked with over the years. great to see @RenMakesMusic working with them.
This is one of the most well structured and important interviews that I have experienced on this subject. May all find peace.
Amen
😊 Thank you for giving us Ren fans such a well thought, caring and respectful interview. Truly enjoyed the conversation and it is truly wonderful to see another fan ask a few of the things I have wondered myself. You are clearly a Ren fan as the joy in asking him all your questions that any fan would want to. Well done sir. ❤❤ #thereneffect
Well said indeed. A really wonderful interview all round.
God protect this man at all costs
Thank you for such a thoughtful interview. These issues are not easy to talk about and it's so important to push past the discomfort and into vulnerability. I am grateful to Ren for his willingness to share his raw self and his invitation to others to peel back the layers of their own healing.
A beautiful, honest, deep and utterly needed respectful conversation 🖤
Ren touches soooo many people through his music.....I'm just blown away by his raw...honest talent....thank you ren

Thank you MIND, and thank you Ren. Blessed Be 💜
The man is a genius, making music that touches and moves in a way most artists can only dream of
I stumbled across Ren from the darkest place my mind has ever been and he is still slowly help pull me back from that void. Thanks for bringing him forward, this was lovely and will be a light for other lost souls to follow. 💙💙💙

never has been and never will be another one like Ren. A true poet of the modern times.
ren, you really are a difference maker
Thank you for such an amazing interview... ❤❤❤

Fantastic interview, Ren is a legend in the making
Freckled Angels is still my favorite song he's written for Joe but they're all great.
I've said it a thousand times already, but thank you Ren.
This is such a fantastic idea - we listen to songs that make us happy, sure, but we also listen to songs that we can relate to; songs that make us feel not so alone through the bad times.
To go behind the scenes and explore the artist's experiences, we learn a valuable lesson - we ALL struggle at some point in our lives, but if there isn't always a way through immediately, there are ways to cope and avenues to take that will support us.
Nobody should be alone.
I love Ren! Favourite artist by far! His mind is different, his music is different, i feel different listening to him... much love from Italy man!
Ren is a True Gift from the above.
I wish I could meet Ren someday. I would love to be able to just sit and have a conversation with him. It would be a beautiful thing!
Ren u have no idea how much u n ur words have seriously changed my life...just thank u!!!!!
The four words used over and over by Ren Reactors: "I wasn't expecting that".
This topic has never really touched my life personally, but Ren’s music has helped me to understand. Thank you for the interview. ❤❤❤
Ren is an amazing artist. Thank you for interviewing him. The sound of the song and look of the video was the first time I saw and heard how it felt inside when I went through a major depression during college. Ren’s message is to hold on, it will pass and things can get better. That is so true!

Ren, your words ring so true for so many. It's always a pleasure to learn about your process and journey.
I believe your music and your message (and your gentle compassion for humanity) are literally raising the vibration of thousands upon thousands of souls, and soon, it will be millions.
I feel so blessed that Hi, Ren came into my youtube feed and introduced me to you. I LOVE watching others experience your music for the first time.
As always, sending you lots of love and healing energy. 💖
Picturing Joe's Mom smiling driving through the countryside in her campervan made me feel joy and tear up❤
Fantastic interview. Ren is the most inspiring artist I have encountered in my life. If you haven’t listened to his music, do yourself a favour and check him out ❤❤❤
Hope this interview is shared far and wide
Music has been my therapy for as long as I can remember. Ren has become a very large part of that and I'm so glad I was able to find him ❤
Ren is such a humble guy but also a massive inspiration to many. Thanks for everything @renmakesmusic ❤
