just wanting to give some love & support. keep giving to receive. you have people that care in way’s incomprehensible to us. thank you ren. for introducing us to this community
Exactly my thoughts. Thank you!
There are several versions of this song, but this is the acoustic version. This is also a busking version. And a wonderful "featuring Angry Car Park Attendant" version As well as a fully produced music video version. This song, in its myriad versions, was Ren's (and Sam's) first 'viral' success and opened doors for both of them. Thanks for the reaction.
Great reaction, my friend. Thanks for always just being genuine you. I agree, when you’re processing things through therapy, you can feel even more raw and vulnerable. Often, things get worse before they get better. Just trust the process, it’s like one of those annoying puzzle games where you’re sliding the squares around to make the picture, you often have to disassemble parts you’ve put together, to enable things to move in to the right place. Keep breathing, even if that’s your only goal when times are bad. 🧡
I love this analogy! Thank you for that!
@@mcflyjp Thank you for starting these conversations 😊
Super good analogy!
I'm ready to cry, I'm so relieved you've finally hit Ren + Sam!
Also, as another person in therapy, thank you for mentioning how important actual real therapy is, no matter how cathartic/whatever other words Ren's music is for folks. It's an important message for people who've never been to therapy need to hear ❤
I just want people to know that are maybe afraid of going to therapy that none of this replaces the help of a professional.
Thanks. I actually did need to hear that. ❤️
I like the unpolished vibe from Sam in this video. Sam’s voice compliments Ren’s when he sings up high. I think because Ren is such a slick performer he can often overshadow. That is why I like to watch him performing with Chinchilla, as she is an equal match and never lets him dominate the performance space. Obviously, Ren will outshine most with the depth of his lyrics and his overall dramatic performance, because it’s his true inner passion. With regards to what you are going through in your own life, may I tentatively suggest that you need to talk through in more depth what you said about ‘not trying to make new friends’ with your therapist, because you are a great guy and you deserve to have friends and deserve to allow people to appreciate your talents as a human being. You deserve to express yourself and not worry that your stumble over your words. Those who appreciate you will always take time to listen to you and pay attention. You will eventually get to a point where you are your own fail safe, but until then don’t be upset that your family is that for you for now. x
I think I more so just don't have time to uphold a steady friendship with anyone. Any relationship required effort and time and I just don't have it. But you're right, I should discuss with my therapist.
As a therapist, I appreciate your plug for therapy! Also, many employers provide a benefit called the Employee Assistance Program or EAP that provides free, short-term, therapeutic counseling, so folks may want to ask their HR if they have an EAP! Ren has resonated with me so much specifically due to what his representation means to the mental health community and those struggling with mental health issues. His voice, and by reaction, your voice, will help people..minute to minute, song to song, hour to hour... and any therapist or even medical professionals, who listen to Ren's music and watch his videos...if they don't come away thinking a different way about patients and how to interact with them, may be time to find another line of work.
Lol. The 2nd session of therapy I showed my therapist Hi Ren. Lol
In Ren's merch there's an "angry car park attendant" figure (though I think it's currently sold out) that's from the "featuring angry car park attendant" version of this song - it's a great version, you really get to see Ren and Sam's personalities. Wonderful reaction, as always - thank you for sharing it with us!
I think I might do that one very shortly.
I know I'm just a random chick on the internet but for what it's worth I'm so proud of you for seeking help (professional) but also pointing out that while it's great to hear and see people relating to what Ren puts out, just knowing that other people are struggling is not enough sometimes. A supportive family and a good therapist are worth their weight in gold. As always much love from TX and I wish you and your family well!❤
Thanks for the kind words. My good friend mentioned to me that it's important to let them know that I am in no way qualified to be a "healer" for anything and that I shouldn't replace s therapist. I think that's definitely important to note.
Also I see you're an archer! That's sick!
Thanks for the reaction, man!
Love and support!
Thank you!
Silence can be the loudest on the inside…
I usually say that Ren isn’t just a multitalented genius but also a magnet for other talented artists, but you got me thinking about how much of the great chemistry with those people is due to Ren. I have a feeling that his personality and approach to music probably goes a long way to making others relax and open up in his presence.
I think he is very good about bringing out the talent in others. By making them feel comfortable but also accountable.
You have my support and my respect for trying to work on the parts of you that you think are broken, but remember to honour the parts of you that are perfectly fine! Great reaction to a great song ❤
Thank you so much. Loved this song a lot.
brother I am totally with you on this one basically to me what he is saying is that doing what you love and makes you happy will help pull you through and it just reminded me not to wallow in my pain and not to forget my passions in life that have made me happy in good times. Much respect to you and I hope you can feel the warmth of brighter times soon. Great reaction as always btw.
Yeah. We all need to find those vices that help us get through the day.
I always appreciate your reactions.
Wishing you more time in the light, less time in the dark. ❤️
Thank you!
Thanks for the reaction. Do do watch the acoustic version....sooo much fun.
Enjoy this extraordinary rabit hole that I am personally totally hooked. Ren I can listen to over and over, all moods are served ✨🙏
Luv from France
Been addicted since March when I found Hi Ren.
One of my favorites! On repeat in my Ren playlist.
Really loved this one.
There's 5 versions of this, as well as the MC session,
An actual music video, the one called angry car park attendant, a busking one (my least favourite) and a fly on the wall video of them out and about (I like this style)
"Dignity" by the Big Push is similar and really good
I'm glad we have this community and you are within it. ❤️
Thank you that means a lot. This community is pretty incredible.
Im the exact same way with my social anxiety. Most times, if its having a conversation with someone about something important, i can't get my thoughts out right and have to tell them i need to take some time to digest everything then come back to it. Its embarassing but also debilitating like you said. Just wanted to let you know, i feel you on that, my man. 💜💜💜
If it's something I'm passionate about it's extremely easy but if it's something that I'm not passionate about then I have trouble.
Great insight and crowd, I’ll rewatch again shortly 🙏🦉❤️🐊👍
Had a lot of fun in the premiere. Thank you!
Hugs to you xx
🙏🏼🫂
Stay strong brother. You are appreciated.
I appreciate that
Sams blowing up as well at the moment.. he just announced a US tour and he just solid out his Canada shows. Ren and Sam met busking
That's amazing. He's a talented dude so I'm glad he's getting noticed.
Great reaction. Could I just mention that Ren must be so proud that his music promotes discussions on mental health by a huge community of fans and reactors. He is having such a positive influence and you are showing us how. Thank you.
His music has not only brought people together but got them to open up and I think that's really important.
This is for sure my favorite recording of this song! Sam is such an amazing singer and he and Ren compliment each other well.
Agreed. It seems so many different artists meld greatly with Ren
@@mcflyjp true! He’s a good collaborator and such a pro!
Sending love and light. It’s a hard journey, REN has much wisdom on this topic. I hope listening to his beautiful words brings your pendulum into the radiant light. You are not a burden. You matter more than you know. You can do this. I empathize from my own experience from being where you are ❤.
Thank you very much. It's because of this channel and Ren's music that I sought therapy in the first place. Amazing what the power of music can do.
I started stuttering 1 1/2 yrs.ago,from SEVERE anxiety,(ptsd,narcissistic abuse,sleep deprivation).It's shocking to me,that I feel I'm falling apart!!!! I feel you brother,& Ren!!!! I'm sending loving energy your way 🫶🫶🩵💜🩷💛💚🫂🫂☮️☮️
So sorry you are going through that and sorry it took me so long to see this (I also get overwhelmed with the many comments so I have to separate). I also had the narcissistic abuse and have luckily been able to go to therapy to help me through it! Hope you're healing!
Getting professional help is very important goon on you for taking that most scary but important step❤
Blind Eyed and the multiple versions of it was THE first song that went viral for ren.
Basically 5 versions.
Long before Hi Ren.
And obviously for good reason.
I mean it obviously makes a lot of sense considering the content of it.
@@mcflyjp The MC Sessions is by far my favorite version though. And this video was not even uploaded on ren's own channel.
I have to say, the first thing or two I heard with Sam I wasn't impressed. I thought he was a wannabe, but it didn't take long for me to realize he really has a lot of talent. This guy is good.
I get that. He is good. A bit unpolished but very very good.
@@mcflyjp " Time will fly" is a good Sam track
@@mcflyjphe opened a show for Justin Bieber in Trondheim and Bieber later called him back on stage to sing a song with him, then stood back with a huge happy grin and left Sam to carry an entire verse-chorus solo in front of an insane crowd.
(video on Sam's channel)
He does pop that's *just* not-mainstream-pop enough for me to be able to at least somewhat enjoy many of his songs, and there are a few that I would be happy to say with my whole chest that I *really* quite like (even if it doesn't appeal to me like Ren's music does).
(W)hole and See Me (visualizer video for See Me is best visually imo, really well done, live version is... maybe even better vocals I think) are two that really stand out to me.
He's gonna *explode* onto the world stage at some point. Just a matter of "the right moment" coinciding with "the right song," or perhaps getting more than one opening set for a big star on tour like Bieber.
Wow, really, first time I heard him I was blown away, lad has some pipes!!
Thank you for being genuine and sharing yourself. Great reaction
❤️🙏🏼
Hey man, I appreciate the honest and vulnerable reaction to this amazing song. Thank you for being so brave. Keep up the work
Trying to learn to be more vulnerable in a public setting. Get out of my comfort zone.
@@mcflyjp I’d say you’re doing a helluva job.
I absolutely know depression!!!!! I appreciate this beautiful song,soooooooo much!!!!!!🫶🩵💜🩷💛💚🫂🫂☮️🌈🤗💫⭐️🎵🤗🔮
Thanks for being real dude as always! The fast bars on this to me is what sets Ren apart from your dnb mc. No filler, every syllable counts. Big love bro, sending positivity your way!
Thanks for the kind words. Ren keeps on surprising me every time.
You are very brave to dare digging in stuff like this, seems like a big challenge for you. I never could do this.
Btw I’m glad you left the swamp, love your analysis and perspective ❤
We can't evolve if we don't challenge ourselves.
Thank you for another open and honest reaction. I was talking to some friends today about Ren's music and how people who have either mental, physical or emotional health issues or trauma resonate so much more with his music than people who have less experience with this. I also have social anxiety and a lot of mental and physical health issues so relate so much to your reactions. Hope you are doing okay. Take care of yourself! ❤❤
It's pretty incredible how music that is relatable can be appreciated more than music that isn't.
There's a video. Its pretty cool.
And a version featuring angry parking assistant.
I want to watch the other versions too.
Love you and hope you’re feeling a bit better-thank you for your vulnerability (and great reactions).
Sending hugs.
Thank you so much! I'm on the mend for sure!
You absolutely don’t deserve to be punished! If you decide to be alone sometimes that should be your choice and not because you want to spare others from your pain. They probably want the opportunity to comfort you. Wish you peace and self love❤
That's something I have to figure out internally. To realize I don't need to be punished.
When you can find things that sustain your soul, hold on to those and use them as your strength.
In kindness and love. Hugs.
BTW, The angry car park version is fun.
I'm gonna have to do that one soon.
For some fun Ren to watch on your own without worrying about reacting and just feeling it on his channel is a busking playlist, and there’s a lot of performances, especially the ones in front of the upside down house that are really enjoyable. He also plays with his band The Big Push and the other bandmembers play some solo stuff it’s all really really good.
I have enjoyed the busking videos I've seen so far ( one of which I saw accidentally a while ago) I want to get into more.
Mcfly we dig your reactions. ren resonates big and diff for everyone of us. #Renegades
Thank you! Love him as an artist and a person
I want to say sth nice to cheer you up but I’m just not the best advisor so I hope a like/a comment/a view can briefly make you feel even a tiny bit better
I came for the reaction but doing all of these things for you. Stay strong mate!💪
Thank you very much. Anything helps! Thanks for the support.
You deserve much love! You deserve to feel it every day. And I hope you will feel better and better and appreciate the gift that you were given and that you are . Thanks for this wonderful reaction.
Thank you very much for the kind words
finally more ppl doing this track its so under rated! hugs all around
Idk why it's underrated. It's fantastic in every way.
There’s a vid of this song featuring an angry car lot attendant and it’s very well done, sound gorgeous plus it’s funny!! It may be worth your watch!!
I want to watch that one next
I love this song. It’s one of my favs of his.
This one really took me by surprise. Love it.
You do NOT have to save face. We are all here for you.
Sometimes for my own good I definitely have to
Question: Have you reacted to REN’s song, “Penitence”? I think there’s a correlation between this song and “Penitence”. Thanks for your honesty. My siblings and I grew up with a Mother that battled mental illness. I remember those “bad” days when she felt like her world was going swallow her up. She fought it and she was terrified, she cried. We were small children and didn’t know.She finally got professional help as we became pre-teens. Our Mom learned to dance with her dark side. She lived to be 80 years old. RIP Mom.
Im glad she was able to face those demons and live a long life for you all. That's my goal too.
Love this song so much
Became an instant favorite.
❤❤
Stay strong brother!
I'm a work in progress!
Thank you for your vulnerability in this
I have learned being vulnerable has been more relatable than being funny. So here we are. Lol
@mcflyjp little of both probably doesn't hurt....
But I do think the current world we're living in is pretty hard up for true connection, and vulnerability is what allows that connection
Love 💚from a fellow lyme patient
So sorry you have to go through that.
Humans are not wired to be happy, they are wired to survive attacks from wild animals on the savanna. Happiness is not useful for that.
Moments of true happiness are are rare and should be celebrated, of course. But, don't beat yourself up.
I think originally you're correct but biology changes and adapted overtime. Maybe happiness isn't our default emotion but it certainly isn't sadness or anger.
I do appreciate you boosting me up. Thank you;
You and I quite alike with social anxiety... the triggers are normal situations so its tough...the symptoms are physical so its easy for others to notice.
Yeah it sucks. It's a weird thing too sometimes I can have a philosophical conversation and get everything out correctly. Other days I can't even talk to my kids correctly
Regarding the silence, I need to have an audiobook playing to sleep.
I'm embarrassed to start a new relationship, because thought it was pretty impossible to live with
Nah. I know a lot of people that have the TV or music on to sleep. You're normal. Lol
@@mcflyjp well, I'm not quite "normal" but I have never aspired to be normal (in the best way possible)😊
I live with constant physical pain , in one degree or another, ranging from completely unbearable to bearable. With physical pain come psychological pain. They go hand in hand.
I’ve heard people in mental distress can often be plagued with physical pain as well.
So, it seems, pain is pain and it forms a circle hard to escape
The brain is a crazy thing. It scnw trick you into so many different feelings.
@@mcflyjp
You’ve said a mouthful!!!
Not sure if this is helpful but will share just my own personal experience with therapy... we kinda expect it is going to help and we will feel better when we start delving and talking about things but actually in the early stages I found you get much worse!! Paradoxically that means the therapy is actually working! Stay with it. 🤗
I've found this to be true. But I'm sticking to it as I know it's par for the course
That was tough to watch, some of the things you spoke about were painfully close to home.
I prefer your edited versions as I have enough incoherence going on in my head as it is, I don't need more.
Sorry if I'm being selfish, I know how you feel, I'm just venting.
If I've learnt anything it's a dis-functional mind isn't going to figure it out, have to introduce another element.
"when I learnt to soften the dance got easier" the words from Hi Ren are my personal way forward
Best wishes man, I really mean it.
I prefer my edited versions more myself. But until I catch up there might be more raw unedited versions. I'll do my best to get them edited.
I feel like Ren always finds a way to describe his pain in a specific yet still general way so it reaches many different kinds of people.
There is a limit to physical pain. How much nerves can transfer, but mental pain is a different story. And those are connected. Mental pain can manifest as physical. You can try to punish yourself by breaking some precious thing like your relationship. Been there. It can manifest as suicidal tendencies. The human mind is a beautiful and terrible place.
Damn. I never even thought about that. That's pretty heavy.
@@mcflyjp Going through that now. Thinking about One Flew Over the Cuckoo's Nest and that electrical therapy.
Try - Ren feat Orleans - Jessica ..next..
Haven't seen that one come up yet. I'll add it to the list.
Check him out with Eden Nash. 2 songs: Humble and Ocean. You'll be blown away again. That's a promise.
I'm ready for thoseN
Have you seen Blue October’s video Fear? I just saw BP react to it and I think it will help you as it helps me step outside and view my fears from a different perspective ❤❤ please check it out
I have not. I will have to check that one out.
You don't deserve punishment. You deserve help. Please honor yourself by getting that help.
I have started therapy and it has proved helpful so far.
@@mcflyjp So glad to hear that. You are so worth it! 😍
Did you happen to hear See Me by Sam? Would love to see a reaction to it xo
This is the very first song I've heard Sam in. I'm ready to keep going down another rabbit hole
❤❤
🙏🏼❤️
