I find what Ren is doing on his own complete Performance Art...but I also totally Love The Big Push together...each band member brings a rock n roll brilliance and has a fantastic synergy. ❤
They are far better together, it's something truly special. One in a million, I think it was a bad call to split up, they will never get a wave to ride like that again ever in their whole life, letting it pass you by is insane most people don't even get the chance at one in their life.
It looks like REN crossed over to the dark side of the music industry. Sold his soul. 5 months in a Canadian clinic for Limes disease (Oh really, which street artist can afford that)? Or an MKUltra Popstar training?
@@wandaadHe has publicly stated that family and friends have helped fund his healing...this support came from love, which is from the light and not paranoia, jealousy or the "dark" side.
I'm a 51-year-old grandmother getting a huge kick out of the next generation doing Joy Division. This was my theme song back in the day😅 This is the best cover of it I have ever heard.
I have listened to everything I can get my ears on by Ren and all of his other projects. I only wish I'd discovered you all years ago. Each and every one of you is brilliant.
This song defined the sound of the 80s before the 80s even began. The song was ahead of its time. Same can be said of Blue Monday and New Dawn Fades. Blue Monday was still in the charts in the 90s.
Hey I've been in the Ren/Big Push rabbit hole for a whole of 3 days now. I have ADHD also so I'm listening to/watching everything I can get my hands on and have barely slept for that time, hyperfocus to thank! 😅 I love this cover so much and damn how much I respect Ren dropping to his knees so his band mate singing has all the attention for himself! Big love you guys! Glad I finally found you.
Can't believe you guys are splitting up how sad. You are all so talented. Wish you all the very best in life and am sure you will reunite one day. Big up guys.
I'm just so fully pissed that I missed out on being a part of The Big Push busking days. My soul aches but I'm also deeply grateful that these videos exist.
The thing with you guys is this: this - the street-is absolutely where you should be. This allows everything to be as it should. The proximity between everyone involved takes this "playing music" to the highest level possible, musicians, audience, passers-by or bis drivers. This is the purest and most loving Form of performing, and you are absolute masters at it. The other thing is that at the same you your are so good, it feels like the biggest stages should be yours. I believe that what you did was perfect in many ways, and has surely also sheltered you from getting sucked into the big business and its poisonous snakes. I'm just happy you found each other, and wish all of you the best with whatever career and life is now awaiting each of you 🌟🦋😘
Great rendition of that great song. You guys really have a great chemistry and you have knack of playing cover songs like they are your own. Fantastic band!
Wow!! How The Hell did I Miss this??.. Fact:When Actor “ KEANU REEVES”, Was asked “ If he had to choose Just ONE SONG to listen to on REPEAT, 24 Hours a Day? This song was what he chose!. Out of all the millions of songs? This was an everlasting treasure!!.. GREAT JOB GUYS! You did this song absolute JUSTICE! Loves guys! 👍🔥🪔🪄
I found out about you guys by random chance about two weeks ago and have watched/listened to I shot the sheriff/Zion/Hip Hop, English Man in New York, Bongo Bong, and Paint It Black nonstop. For quite a few years I had stopped listening to music which was partially due to being do depressed and losing enjoyment in life due to certain circumstances in my life. When I saw you guys I was like wow this is so fun and exciting. These guys are so alive and in love with what they are doing. This is what I've been longing for so long. Then I was totally. gutted when I found out the band was no more and I was like fuck only if I had found them earlier I could have made the trip to England and seen them. I don't ever bother to comment on youtube but I would love to get to see you guys play in person. You guys made me realize that I want to really be alive rather than just staying existing each day.
The past few months I've lived with my worst depression, and a couple months into it I got cut off pain meds after 5 neck/back surgeries and 20 years of pain. I never dreamt this would happen, but my Arkansas is trying to phase pain meds out. The last cut put me at 1/7 th of what made it tolerable to do the basics, I took an extra half at times and came up short, two strikes, you're out. Months later still trying to find a Dr. who can help me. Oh, the withdrawls. I was totally unprepared for that. I'd had Oxy withdrawls before, but the morphine made that look easy. It was only 15 mg. over 12 hours`, extended release. Thought it would be easy since I'd drug out my last few. Then came the anxiety of losing my independence. I was spinning out several times a day, and my mind wasn't going to happy places. My Dr. couldn't help me, her hands were tied. She prescribed my pain meds for 12 years but could do nothing to ease the withdrawls. I begged for a psych referral, then had to wait weeks to get in. I got so bad I called again to see if they could get me in sooner. For some reason I was hanging onto that appt. like it was going to heal me. I developed 6 new pinched nerves and my upper back felt like a switchboard lighting up. I'm going to pay for staying on here longer than I have in months. Rhomboid muscles are protesting. Like my shrink, seeing her monthly now. I' m in a Spravato(esketamine) trial now. Only 2nd week but I'm hopeful. If nothing else I get to float, pain free for 45 min. twice a week. Got a new MRI last week, waiting to hear results. Min concerns are my neck and lower back but the plate in my neck and 4 rods in back get in the way of good imaging. Bottom of two lower rods dig at me since I lost 50 lb. last year, just lost my appetite. I could spare it, but it took fat away from the rod, I can clearly feel the end of one just under the skin. Every time I hitch my pants up I feel it. Hope the MRI shows something that can be helped, but no more surgery, of any kind. Not on the restrictions they've put on pain meds. Not getting online like I used to I sit in front of the TV with my hot packs, heating pad, ice packs. I can't concentrate much of the time so I stay on You Tube. I'd been watching The Big Push a couple years. I love watching them preform, they look so joyful and compliment each other perfectly. The "Hi Ren" came out And I got hooked on watching reactors react to "Hi Ren" and every day there are more. Ren's work is finally getting the attention it deserves. Most of the reactors are "going down the Ren rabbit hole" and playing more videos. He is finally getting his music out globally, as he set out to do. I do envy his perseverance and acceptance.
Every other video I am more and more amazed how much talent is hidden in this band. It seems any one of the band members would be able to go solo and do a high-quality music. It may not be big fame, but the quality will be there. The talent of these guys is immense.
I've known you guys for only a year now, but what a hell of a year it was, i'm playing in a band as well, and this sort of covers are such a big inspiration, just as you guys are. Thanks for posting this, you guys are helping me through my exams and music carreer, keep it up. Big love
What an amazing cover! Love Ren's guitar as replacement for the keyboards, truly fantastic! I could listen to this just as much as the original. Wish I had been there! The Big Push are Epic!
Listening to JD since 1980 (pretty much daily) never liked Love will T A much, but this version is the only version of any JD song I have ever liked, and I like it more than Ians version. Awesome stuff
Man, so much damned talent. Still learning the names of all the guys, was that Romain singing? Whoever it was just NAILED the original tone quality and vibe of the song.
Hi REN, really loved that video, I was hooked and then I saw you and the Big Push performing I shot the Sherrif and you blew the dome off my shoulders. I'm a happy 59 years old and I love your music just think of the massive audience you could reach⭐🌟
It's too bad that I discovered all of you so late... and that I live in the US. I would have been watching you guys play with every spare moment I had.
@@TheBigPushBand oh no I just discovered you guys, only to find out you broke up, I feel like my girlfriend left me...get back together you are sincerely the best most talented band in the last Twenty20 or more years xxx. You are fantastic X. Love from Cyprus xx
You guys don't know how fucking epic you are. All together and as individuals. Epic. Nothing as raw and real as this anywhere in sight or on the horizon. ❤
I wish every time I have watched this counted as a new like! :-D Joy Division Covers are the holiday anthem of depressives! Smiling about Romain singing so beautiful makes me feel better!
You guys are so refreshing to listen too! There is so much garbage music industry produced crap out on the music scene ! Keep up the great work ! Hopefully see you on a world tour someday ! Happy holidays to you guys ! Peace & love !
The talent is unreal. Romains voice is so smooth and old school romance sounding!!
A very very talented bunch of lads right here.
If I could have one thing for Xmas it would be for the Big Push to get back together - the world needs this type of honest Rock n Roll :)
WHAT - did they break up!?!?!?!?!?! That can't be!
I had no idea. So very sad, for me.
i do agree!
@@Katherine-zi6mw they all are living in different countries atm 😢 they are still friends

57 and likewise. Never liked the JD version (even though i am JD Addict ) this is much much better
You want to hear a good cover of it Noel Gallagher and the high flying birds best cover heard so far
@@markknight9131 agreed its good, thanks for the share. Still prefer the desperation of big push version
Agree 57 yo
The cure also did a great cover of this song! But I love this version also! 💖
Nailed it guys - one of the greatest ever songs - Rest easy Ian Curtis
I have listened to everything I can get my ears on by Ren and all of his other projects. I only wish I'd discovered you all years ago. Each and every one of you is brilliant.
It's great that the guitar actually has a very 80's sound to it. Perfect.
This song defined the sound of the 80s before the 80s even began. The song was ahead of its time.
Same can be said of Blue Monday and New Dawn Fades. Blue Monday was still in the charts in the 90s.
I just can not stop listening to this band. I love is band one of the best ever one love
Fantastic rendition of one of the greatest songs ever written. Love you guys, may each of your lives overflow with joy.
Everybody is amazing, but the drums and guitar in this song are what brings me back and back and back to this cover!
61 year old headbanger from Philly. I just found you guys. We need more music, PLEASE. 🤞🏼☮️💕
Yea !!! They started of as buskers in Brighton . Oh woww imagine going shopping to Iceland 🇮🇸 and hearing these guys ! Phanonamol
@@Jackiemongan They’re amazing!!!! ☮️♥️👍🏼

It's so nice when you see a comment and know you aren't alone and someone knows what hyperfocus is because they have it (adhd) too...❤
Can't believe you guys are splitting up how sad. You are all so talented. Wish you all the very best in life and am sure you will reunite one day. Big up guys.
What a beautiful voice Romain, and I always love this song; CONGRATS The Big Push!

From a 57yr old Punk Rocker thanx for this. Curtis would be proud 🇬🇧💚
Guys this is just incredible. Everything you guys do drips with talent. I'm addicted!!
Love it.
Keep the band together boys
:)
Big Love Rob xx
Romain got such a Beautiful voice! 💜you guys are all soooo talented!
aw bless you!
Right! And he always has fantastic taste in his guitar tones.
Romain should do something from the Smiths, his voice would fit perfectly
His name is Romain? haha I was just thinking Roman vibes (Kieran Culkin)
