    Hot tip: if you are struggling with lyrics Ren generally pins the lyrics in the top post of all his videos. Enjoying your Ren reactions!

      I was going to point out the same thing. If he gets to Hunger he’ll want that :)

    • @jbledsoe7555
      @jbledsoe7555 Год назад +2

      Plus, he uses some British words (like “pram” for baby stroller) so the lyrics help you figure that out.

  • @achebwahs1111
    @achebwahs1111 Год назад +22

    React to as much Ren as you see fit. He has nothing out there that is average. He doesn't do fillers and jumps from genre to genre, Setting new standards with his unique touch of genius. I think you would like Dear God in particular. Beautiful and powerful. Cheers from Downunder .

    For something completely different from Ren, look up "the Big Push" Bongo Bong (Live). I warn you that it will easily become an Ear Worm....LOL. It's actually hard to put Ren in a box, he can basically do whatever he puts his mind to. Another "the Big Push" song to check out would be a cover of the Bob Marley song "I shot the Sheriff." Basically anything from "the Big Push" is worth checking out, as most of it is live Busking (Street Performing).

    • @TrevandErin
      @TrevandErin  Год назад +2

      I'll definitely check those out

    @yearbyred8588 Год назад +9

    If you know the original song and video it would help your reaction I think. It’s a much more positive “re-take” on the original and I agree that it shows his playful side. It’s his take on British society and it works for me.

    Hi from Scotland 🏴󠁧󠁢󠁳󠁣󠁴󠁿
    I’ve been a Ren fan for about four years now since stumbling onto his band’s street performance videos. The Band is called The Big Push and you’ll get a load of Ren’s vocals from any video you choose. My personal favourites are War Pigs, I Shot The Sheriff/Road to Zion/Hip Hop and Wade In The Water/Trouble So Hard. You can also go for One Dance/Drunk In Love with Chinchilla where his technical skills with the loop pedal are on show.
    Anyway, keep up the great work and keep on going down the rabbit hole

  • @paullucas9519
    @paullucas9519 Год назад +13

    I’m enjoying the Ren reactions, it’s a deep rabbit hole to go down but if you really want to hear Ren sing check out ‘The Big Push - Wade in the water / Nina Simone / Trouble so hard’. It’s from 3 years ago, Ren and his band busking on the street of Brighton.

    • @supertuscans9512
      @supertuscans9512 Год назад

      His Wade in the water performance with the big push is epic.

    @georgejetson1379 Год назад +4

    Bar of the track...
    ''Mad how small altercations
    can define who we are''
    So true... similar to NF in PRIDEFUL
    that you will hear soon...
    ''Brief seconds that impacted my life, on a huge scale
    Weigh 'em like what's wrong and what's right...''
    Hope this gets you hyped for it
    and not TMI spoiler instead... lol ;)

    There's a bunch of us that are hooked on Ren reactions so keep em coming, no worries! 😅 Another one with him singing is Freckled Angels, a song he wrote over 10 years ago for a friend who killed himself. There's a live performance video of it on RUclips.

    • @achebwahs1111
      @achebwahs1111 Год назад +1

      I think bunch of us will soon turn into millions of us. Ren seams to connect on some level with the vast majority who find him. He's a true gem and a once in a generation artist. I am so happy to have Ren's music in my life and happy to see so many others experiencing his gift to the world.
      Much love friend

    • @TrevandErin
      @TrevandErin  Год назад +2

      Ohhh I can only image what Ren has to say about that one

  • @jonblackburn7634
    @jonblackburn7634 Год назад +5

    As people have already said, the lyrics are normally the first comment. As you aren't British, you might not get some of the references, but you will at least see the lyrics flow. The video - and the track - is based on The Verve's Bitter Sweet Symphony. I'd recommend giving that a watch as well.

    • @supertuscans9512
      @supertuscans9512 Год назад

      I think the only words you may not no the meaning of are :
      Reeboks - a brand of British sneakers.
      Bookies: - a shop where you go to place bets - can be on anything - horses, sports matches, political elections, the weather etc…

    Hello Trev, we Ren obsessed will stick with you throughout your rabbit hole journey. As long as you have some content to keep people who are not keen (do they exist?), you should be fine! I for one am always happy to see another of your reactions popping up. Gary Leishman recommended 'What you Want' already, but there are also 'Power' and 'What you want 1&2' and Humble which all manage to combine message with something a little more upbeat. And again, the street performances of Wade in the Water ruclips.net/video/DbL7Frf6nJI/видео.html or It's a Man's World' ruclips.net/video/d8nBzrhd8Ro/видео.html cries out for a Gospel Musician Reaction.

    Sick Boi is more aggressive rap and The Hunger for ridiculous rap.

  • @horsehollerer

    If you want to see more "songbird ren," I'd recommend a couple of amazing live busking videos:
    1. "I shot the sheriff/road to zion/hip hop with his band the big push, and 2. earned it/man's world/fallin' with sam tompkins. Both will blow your mind. Thanks!

    • @TrevandErin

  • @bryanwinchell2485
    @bryanwinchell2485 Год назад +4

    Dig it, man. I agree the video is super well done, but as @yearbyred said above me, do check out the original by the Verve, one of the BIG hits of the 1990s and see how Ren's video is like a positive, more well-rounded, less self-centered remake. (Don't get me wrong, I still LOVE that song and that band!). Here's a link to that:

    If you want more like Chalk Outlines, try Ren X Chinchilla How to be Me (Live). Or, for something with a different flare but still 'singing' try the video on his channel The Big Push - I Shot The Sheriff.

  • @somethingsunting
    @somethingsunting Год назад +3

    Worth checking out the original video by the Verve, both the video and the lyrics do make a little more sense if you know what he's riffing off here. Hadn't seen the video for years and man, we were dark in the 90s.

    You should listen to "Bitter Sweet Symphony" by The Verve. It was a monster hit in 1997 in the UK. This is basically a shot for shot remake with Ren's lyrical spin. Hi from Beijing (via England!) Love your reactions!
