      Jenny's tale was the saddest of all... at 14, she's walking the streets late at night in high heels (and has walked thoose streets a thousand times before). SO she ran away from foster care at an early age only to end up on the streets, and always looking for a way to escape that life. And when she finally 'escapes' (at the hands of a brother she never knew) it definitely wasn't in the way she intended.

      Yep. If you watch closely you can see the cord plugged into his guitar, the lapel mic clipped on by his neck, and the wireless pack on his back that both are connected to. The pack is most noticeable in Violet's Tale because it's not under a jacket or anything.

    Live with a lapel mic.
    The story behind this, as I know it, is Ren read a story about a young thug killing a young prostitute. The article ended with "it's such a shame". The rest of the story sprung from that and, to me, is meant to highlight how deep these things can go and how "it's such a shame" doesn't really cover it.

    All three of these songs are taken from the live audio. You can hear the rustle of his jacket, the door when he leaned against it, and in Violet's tale you really hear the difference in acoustics as he walks around and playing/singing as he moves location. They were also all 1 take videos with no editing as well

    • @6ic6ic6ic
      @6ic6ic6ic 10 месяцев назад

      The interesting thing about the acoustics in Violets tale is how they sync up to the lyrics. When Violet is trapped early and later with Stevie the camera and the acoustics are close. When the story and Violets situation are escaping or descriptive but not from her perspective the acoustics and camera pull off. Very clever work.

    Hello Andrea, beautiful and well-broken down reaction ... I loved your analysis throughout the reaction. Ren is the producer on most all of his tracks, and yes these were all "One-Takes" and done live. Most of Ren's productions are done for less than £1000. Jenny and Screech were written in 2019 after Ren read a story in the newspaper about a young prostitute (Jenny in high-heeled shoes who walks the street) who was stabbed to death by a 14-year-old boy (Screech with anger management issues). Violet's tale was written almost 5 years later (in 2022) because Ren thought the two stories were incomplete. Ren hits topics that most people are afraid of even saying out loud. Generational Domestic Violence is out there, we have to be able to say this out loud, and I feel Ren is doing this. new sub ... much love! ❤

    Incredible reaction Andrea. I've watched many reactions to this, you saw things missed by most (2 types of guitar for instance) and your musical insight was interesting. As you noticed in the third tale, it's live, all one take. The topics are grim but unfortunately, all too real. Ren has the freedom to explore areas I've never seen anyone try before. Shout out to his videographer, Sam. You see him in Power (with fixed cameras in a car). Genesis is another one-take shot by Sam as is Money Game 1 I think.

    And we’re both massively impressed with your compassion and insight of plight that women have to go through at the hands of us…..well certain men.
    I was lucky to be brought up by a brilliantly strong single mother that taught me what a “real” man should be, and I will always try in vain to be as moral, humane and understanding as she was.
    I commented on a previous video about the age I was when we parted.
    My daughter has been empowered by the teachings of this lovely, empathetic strong human being.
    She will never, ever be made to feel inferior to any aggressive horrible, generic, ape like man. She’s strong and intelligent and she knows we’re in it together 💪

    We don't get Jenny's back story. But a 14 yr old in high heels.. Walking the streets at night.. As she's done a thousand times before.. wanting to escape her life.. It does paint a bleak picture of her life. Presumably they were separated. Both ended up in the foster care system. And that system failed them both. :(

    Just like he did in his song/video for Hi Ren, when it is coming from the perspective of Jenny he has a softer cadence and uses the finger picking style on the guitar, but when he switches to Scheech's perspective the vocals have more intensity and his guitar cadence has a more harsher sound all to just really set the tone for their characters.

    @Seamus.MacLeod 10 месяцев назад +3

    Much as with "Hi Ren," he's changing the picking/strum based on who's the focus. In Jenny's tale, it was the opening/closing narration, narrating Jenny, and Screech. For Screech's Tale, it was Opening/Closing, Screech, Narrator (even intensified, it was the same rhythm). For Violet's Tale, It's the Refrain and Narration. Each shot live in on continuous shot on the streets of London. Reportedly based on a newspaper article of a prostitute was stabbed by a youth, who was killed by police later. There was a major uptick in knife assaults at the time. He highlights in both of the original tales "Such a shame." which is what everyone says when tragedy strikes others. Violet is an amazing tale of generational violence and quirks of fate; Jenny gets the quiet of her mother, and Screech inherits the worst traits of his father and grandfather. The use of natural reverb was quite intentional, especially the stairwell. He then goes outside to remove it entirely. Vioelt's tale ends in the same spot Jenny fell.

    Andrea, the empathy that you feel throughout the reaction is both real and appropriate. At its heart the story is one of modern systems failing people across generations. Violet's twins are Jenny and Screech. Their mom is murdered by their dad. They are separated and lost in the foster system. They meet again on a London street where they have no idea they are brother and sister. Violence, random coincidence, fate... we all get to decide.

Also do Heretic, Ready For You, and Crutch.…their is just so much to RENs musical art form…he uses his voice like the instrument that it is…it’s borderline insane. REN performed this live on the streets of Brighton and he talked about his belief that their is beauty in the ugly and ugly in the beautiful…I think this comes out in much of his music and it’s clearly a theme in the trilogy….you where picking that up so well in your reaction.
    FYI his latest song drops tomorrow…it’s called Murderer….I think it a real banger that makes you wanna dance. REN hit a million subs today so he will be releasing a song a week in August and the entire 18 song album in September.✌🏼

  • @Codex7777
    @Codex7777 10 месяцев назад

    He was playing with the idea of a medieval bard. Hence the overall style of the piece and all the little classical and medieval guitar licks. Believe it or not he's actually self-taught on acoustic guitar. As he is on electric guitar, bass, ukulele, mandolin, piano/keyboard and drums, all of which he plays at a really high standard. He plays several other instruments really well too. He beatboxes really well too and is a world-class rapper. As for his voice, you haven't heard anything yet. He has an amazing voice, capable of multiple styles and tones. The fact that two of his biggest vocal influences are Jeff Bucley, Nina Simone, Sting and Bob Marley, should give you a bit of a clue. :) Btw, he lays down all of his own music/beats, producing everything himself! He covers numerous genres. Mixing them up too. Rock, reggae, punk, rap, hip-hop, soul, dance/edm, folk, jazz, blues... He does them all and does them really well!
    The fact that he's done all this whilst suffering from extremely debilitating and incurable, chronic illnesses, is quite remarkable. For almost 10 years an incorrect diagnosis, led to the wrong medication and treatment and a serious deterioration in his condition. For years he was pretty much stuck in his bedroom, unable to go out, or do anything much, suffering from insomnia and near constant chronic pain, unable to eat much and on a severely restricted diet, due to his autoimmunity having made him highly allergic to virtually all food. Yet whenever he could, he'd practice guitar and keyboard and any other instruments he could get his hands on, and write, record and produce music. He's said that he's learned to make the most of those small windows of opportunity, when he's able to do something, because he never knew when the next window would arise.
    Eventually a correct diagnosis, correct treatment and stem cell implants, improved his condition significantly but, despite appearances, he's still seriously ill, with many of the same symptoms as previously. He's currently undergoing experimental treatments in Canada, in an attempt to repair some of the extensive damage done to his body and brain over the years
    Understandably, he's become an inspiration to many. He's determined to remain independent, which means he's unlikely to attract the same attention, or achieve the same level of commercial success as those signed to labels but artistic freedom and personal control over his music are more important to him. It really is all about the music with Ren. He was signed by Sony when he was in his late teens but the contract was terminated shortly afterwards, when he became ill. Most of his fans see this as having been a blessing in disguise. I've yet to hear a bad song from Ren and a dozen, at least, are bona fide masterpieces! His lyricism alone is outstanding! He's a poet really.
    All his trials and tribulations have given him a great perspective on what matters in life. Despite undoubted intelligence and talent, as well as recent success and adulation, he remains down-to-earth, with a wicked, often self-deprecating, sense of humour. His character was shown by the fact that despite not having earned much yet, he donated a large chunk of his royalties to the family of his best friend, who committed suicide and to the lifeboat station that searched for his friend's body. The fact that this was an incident from 13 years ago, yet it was the first thing he thought of to do wth his newly earned money, just makes it all the more poignant and illustrates his genuine character perfectly. :)
    tl/dr - Ren's great! Ren's music's great! Definitely react to more Ren! You won't be disappointed! :)
    P.S. I'd also recommend checking out his interview/discussion with the RUclips reactor 'Rosalie'. It really gives an insight to Ren and his thoughts and is totally engrossing besides. Unlike many artists, Ren's incredibly supportive of reactors and will frequently promote their channels in various ways. He's described it as a 'positive feedback loop' where both he and reactors are helping each other to grow. Thus, he never pursues copyright claims himself. If a third party makes such a claim, on his behalf, which is rare, just appeal the decision and he'll automatically strike the claim down. :)

    Watching your reaction to the end of Screech’s Tale and cringing in anticipation of your reaction to Violet’s Tale, since it’s even more intense.
    Violet’s Tale sort of answers your question about “Why?” Intergenerational trauma affecting epigenetics is the answer Ren suggests.

    This song is just like Ren played a Bard for this story-tell. Each part have their own rythm and style, and the way he tell the story and played the characters are amazing like a professional's actor. (He can do anything , that's amazing). The producer who help Ren to do the video is Samuel (not remember his last name) appear in an another video clip "Power" (The driver). In violet's tale, the rewind to the past, his left hand goes to the right hand then later when he comeback to the present, his left hand goes to the opposite to right hand , really genius.
    Violet was abused by her father and the mom knew. She get pregnant from his father and at her 16y old she quit the house for a bad guy who beat her to death saying she's a liar because he knew the baby was not from him. Twins get separated then the rest ....we know. It's based on a true story (For Jenny , a young Steetwalker get killed then the rest were fiction).
    There is a live (with crowd )of the Story of Jenny & Screech in full 360, we can move the camera :

    18:53 as part of the promotion of Screech's Tale (released 4 years after Jennys Tale due to Ren being too ill to perform it for the video) Ren released an entire day of "Screech's Instagram Stories" which start on Ren's return to London having performed with The Big Push in Birmingham & Ren has his phone snatched whilst recording the video by none other than Screech himself. The rest explains who "babe are you in", "Patrick man, let me in, I can't knock no more" & his location when Screech needs him. But it explains why Screech is desperate & values his life so little also! Please watch & maybe react?

    @garyanning9731 10 месяцев назад

    The ' carnival' bit in Screech's tale always gives me a Bertolt Brecht vibe and I always think he's going to 'Trumpet' the theme from The Godfather.
    Back in the '70's I remember seeing footage of a Cameraman filming a soldier shooting at the enemy in the distance. Then the soldier turned around and shot the Cameraman who was so engrossed in filming he didn't realise he was about to be shot. All you saw was the camera falling down like in Screech's Tale.
    I'm wondering if this is where Ren or Joe got the idea from.

      I'm guessing, but the audio dropouts seemed to be surrounding words YT doesn't like and penalize creators for using. Ab*se, DV, etc. If you look at how Ren's video Suic*de is titled, that's for YT guidelines. Idk how making people jog around the block to find a way to say a specific word helps anything when it's in proper context, but ... 🤷🏻‍♀️

    Ren is very unusual in the variety and depths of his talents. He’s a fantastic composer and lyricist which are complimented by his ability to play Guitar, electric guitar, bass, drums and piano coupled with an incredibly flexible vocal range. In addition he produces his own music, writes his own beats and directs his own videos.
    It almost doesn’t seem fair!but his mum was a singing teacher and his dad was a music producer so he’s been surrounded by music all his life. I think his illness whilst obviously being totally debilitating for him also helped make him the musician he is today because being trapped in his bedroom for years made him focus and home his skills.
    This part of his life also explains why he is so well read and his vocabulary so extensive.
    It’s probably not an exaggeration to say that both literature and music preserved his sanity and maybe his life.

    There's science behind that kids take on the traits of the parents even without knowing them. As in this case, Jenny took on the traits of her mother. She become still and quite, in times of trauma. On the other hand, Screech took the traits of his father. He would be violent and easily irritated. Truly a great idea for a song. Pretty sure Ren read something that happened along these lines in the paper.
