    If we just ignore for a moment the brilliance of the writing and the performance of Ren's music, the production alone is genius. The man did this in his bedroom and it sounds better than a multi-million dollar major label production. Genius all around.

      As a father of wisdom, I suspect @wordnoise4741 uses his daughters as pawns in his game of chess to push the agenda of his interests, almost acting as if his daughters were currency. Basically my understanding is that he is offering his two young girls as payment to get this song on the radio. "As a millionaire you will receive 2000 if you please get this on the radio."

    I have a habit of clicking on any artist that I haven't heard before when it pops up in my recommended section, I listen to music constantly, honestly I'm not sure if I've gone a full day without listening to music since I got my first radio when I was a little kid, so that being said in the years I've come across many many artists that are either new, haven't made it on the radio yet (or don't want to be on the radio) or haven't made the radio in the states yet. I found Jenny's Tale a while back and I haven't been able to stop listening to you since, seriously one of the best artists I've heard in a long while. A lot of your music really speaks . Music is art and to me art at it's very definition is to make us feel some sort of emotion. And your music is pure art in my opinion. Thank you for sharing your gift with all of us.

  • @opmenglish413

    "Now I'm broke, It don't come cheap"
    I love all the lines of this song but this one caught my attention. Not only does this touch upon how there's a premium tacked on beauty products (and just having to consider beauty as another expense), the consequences of building and selling lies to people is huge (how can you put a price on people's wellbeing and the way they view and care for themselves?) and breaks people, it really doesn't come cheap.
    For Ren to have such a great grasp and empathy towards this issue, and to sing about it in such a way that resounds to a lot of people, even back then? Ren really does make music - that intrinsically human expression, an artform that communicates and touches and connects deeply.

    • @markuss7249
      @markuss7249 Год назад +2

      It must have Pop style, because Pop is part of the described business, where trends and tastes are created, where music is exploited, a business, an industry. If you don't listen to this or that, you are out, you need to have a hairstyle like the popstar, dresscode. So the "Pop Style" also is part of the message. And the tip on the cake is, that they call this "freedom" and we all play this game...

    Oh, you build us like dominoes, dominoes, dominoes falling
    Oh, you build us like dominoes, dominoes, dominoes falling
    You build us up just to knock us back down
    Funny, how you act surprised when we hit the ground
    We're like domino, dominoes, dominoes falling
    So bleed me of all my self-belief
    My smile shows all my insecuri-teeth
    In a kingdom of photoshopped kings and queens
    We'll never feel happy with ourselves
    But insecurity sells
    Dominoes, dominoes, dominoes falling
    Oh, you build us like dominoes, dominoes, dominoes falling
    You build us up just to knock us back down
    Funny, how you act surprised when we hit the ground
    We're like dominoes, dominoes, dominoes falling
    I hide my head under the sheets
    'Cause how can I face a world that ridicules the weak?
    Where beauty is sold on the shelves
    Forbid that we find it in ourselves
    And, and now I'm broke, it don't come cheap
    Oh, you build us like dominoes, dominoes, dominoes falling
    Oh, you build us like dominoes, dominoes, dominoes falling
    You build us up just to knock us back down
    Funny, how you act surprised when we hit the ground
    We're like dominoes, dominoes, dominoes falling
    Ariah was the most beautiful girl in this world
    She shined like diamonds and rubies and pearls
    But then as soon as she turned 13
    She forgot just how bright that it was that she gleamed
    Stuck in a material world of magazines
    That glamourize the fake and photoshopped beauty queens
    Top ten beauty tips making her feel inadequate
    For the first time in her life she felt ugly
    So Ariah stopped eating to lose weight
    She spent her dinner money on some make up for her face
    But no matter how much she'd lost
    Or how much she bought
    She was never good enough
    Or so she thought
    Ariah felt she could never be loved
    She started cutting her wrists and hiding her scars with gloves
    At 16, an anorexic beauty queen, she collapses in a puddle of her tears and blood
    'Cause she never felt enough
    She never felt enough
    You sell us all this lie that we must buy to keep in touch
    But we can never buy enough, never buy enough
    All the riches in the world can't buy a sense of self love
    Funny how you act surprised when depression levels rise
    When you force feed inadequacy straight into our eyes
    Television shows that praise the beautiful people
    And talent competitions that just laugh at the feeble
    Billboards, magazines, people turned to plasticine
    Moulded like a factory, we're growing up to fear feeling ugly
    It's lunacy
    A knife in the community, 'cause insecurity breeds judgment
    Judgment breeds hate, not unity
    And hierarchy based upon aesthetics is what makes a kid in school get bullied for genetics
    And I felt so ugly growing up
    The way that I looked sometimes got me beaten up
    I mean what the fuck?
    Sort of culture do we live in
    When we're defined by the shape of our face
    When we're ashamed by the size of our waist
    When we're imprisoned by the form that we take
    And so we keep buyin' and spendin'
    That's just how this story goes
    You build us up just to knock us back down
    And we just keep falling
    Like dominoes

I moved back home after uni in 1999 and didn't emerge from childhood bedroom until 2007, because of many things described by Ren (not exact parallels, but completely get - body screwing you, political and economic system screwing you, media and society telling you that your difference makes you worthless, that you don't measure up). Things far better now, lifetime ago, but still feel it.

Somehow the world weariness and silent suffering is lightened when we recognize this shared experience. The burdens are lessened when we can face them all together. Thank you, Ren.

    I keep holding off listening to every Ren song I haven't yet checked out, nervous that it's going to be the one that disappoints me. And then when I make the time and decide, okay let's hit play, he just blows my frigging mind, gets my body moving and yes, brings me to tears. There is no-one like him and probably never has been.

      It's ok to be disappointed in something. Ren is human, not everything he makes is bound to be special or even good. He takes a lot of risks musically and that increases the chances of failure. And that's ok. Failure is a part of life. Disappointment is a part of life, OP. I'm glad you keep listening even though you are afraid of being disappointed.

      @@curtisholsinger6023 thanks, yeah I get that, I don’t stress over it, don’t get me wrong. I think the point I was trying to make is basically that it’s unbelievable that Ren has such a high ‘hit rate’, for want of a better description. Of course not every single song is going to be a 100% banger but I don’t think I’ve ever come across an artist who can so consistently surprise and delight time after time after time…👍

    Ren lad,
    You’re doing a madness!
    You utilize your energy & creativity to uplift others.
    When I was 24 years old (one year ago), your music gave me the mental strength to get up and find that mental light switch in a pitch black chapter of my past.
    I was simply cold, blind and numb.
    Now, just knowing that the light switch was actually there all along, and won’t always be permanently gone, has given me enough reason to never give up and always be strong.
    Thx Ren ❤️💯

    One thing that I find amazing about Ren and this song in particular is his ability to achieve balance through contrast. If you listened to this song without lyrics you'd be bopping around with a smile on your face, it's such a catchy tune. Then you place these powerful lyrics on top and it just does something indescribable to you, but it ends up feeling perfectly balanced as a whole. Everyday, with each new song I find, my respect and admiration grow for this guy. luv&cuddles

    Hey Ren
    Normally I don't post/react to videos/music... but in this case... in your case I have to.
    I stumbled over your music with "right here right now" and I couldn't stop hearing/watching everything from you.
    So many people said so many things so I couldn't say anything more... but: It would be a shame to not tell you how unbelievable, outstanding, special, strange AND JUST GOOD your music is.
    You do so many styles, you say so many infinite deep things... some things that we heard before (critisism the world and politicians and all this stuff) but you do it in such an impressive, deep and emotional style that (I bet) there is no one in the whole world who would not like your music (despite personal style/sound/genre-preferences).
    Somehow it is not possible to describe how f****** good ever single song of you is. The music, the style, the flow... the flow... the flow :) and all this together with these lyrics.
    You destroyed and reinvented music as a whole new form of art!!!
    Since my girlfriend had bad times in her early twenties, cutting her wrists, going into a psychiatry had really bad boyfriends... and since our life is somehow a bit rough and very stressful "our" girl has a lot of problems with beeing 16 at this time in this world, having a father who does not really care and so on and so on, she had a time (the last two years) when she cutted her wrists too. Not too hard/deep... but she did it... so THIS song "Dominoes" really killed me... I mean... a lot of songs a killing me but this did it in a more personal way.
    Your music is like talking to a psychologist or just to someone you can really talk to. Just because we hear your lyrics and start thinking about all this shit it forces us to deal with it in some way.
    I really really really want to thank you for everything you are doing and I hope that you get well soon.
    If you are ill or not you were your are and you will be an absolutely outstanding human.
    I could write a thousand lines of hhow great all this is... but the last thing I will say is: GO ON!
    Greetings from Germany
