What else should we react to? 🤔 Comment below! Also if you like the song in the intro listen to ‘I Get Lonely’ now 🖤 ua-cam.com/video/MGRbKVoBhI0/v-deo.html
Dig into his older stuff... Ocean, Hold On, Fire, Love Music trilogy, Insomnia, etc...
Please do a Sa-Roc reaction. If breaking down lyrics is our goal here, then her “Bars on I-95” is a great place to start. Be prepared for her rabbit hole though 😉
pretty sure that they are on the bridge Joe jumped off
Heretic..Ren, my favorite Ren track❤❤❤
Anything by St Winifords School Choir please. Cant confirm but i think they inspired Ren, ask him plz.
Always gives me chills when Ren wails out "Where is my God, where are you?" The look on his face is so haunting. That is no longer a performance. That man is taken away by the music.
Me too ! That part chokes me up every time. Just so powerful
As Mozart said, "Music is the silence between notes" Timing is everything.
I love the way Chinchilla is able to move through her registers so easily. It isn't easy to go from a mixed chest to mixed to head voice. Especially when she flips from her mixed to her head voice and she's around E5 or F5. I'm not exactly sure on the pitch at that point. And she's a beast with her belts. Her dynamics are always so on point and convey a ton of emotion. Though the beginning of the song is technically below her singing range, she still supports the lowest notes enough that she can be heard blending in a range where Ren and most male vocalists are comfortable. I just can't get enough of either of these two.
So much great Ren music out there, please never stop exploring his catalog and that of his friends and collaborators like Chinchilla, Sam Tompkins, Romaine Axisa and others. They're all great!
Romain* bro is french
I am wondering when he'll get to Big Push stuff.
Slayed it again Knox! Awesome that you got to meet Ren, man!
I absolutely would prefer music like this instead of anything auto tuned. 💕💕💕
Ren really is a comet and his plasma tail is all the talented people that he is pulling up into the cosmos with him! This was a great breakdown Knox, thank you.
A “walk” lol! I’m dying to see this!!!!!!!! Whatever you guys were up to I’m sure it will be 🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥
My favorite duet of all time. These 2 are dynamite.
Glad you got to meet the man himself, Ren along with @WolfJohnson 😁 - RIP Joe Hughes ❤❤❤
I've watched this a lot of times. And it still amazes me.
This is the best duet I've ever heard. Raw & real. The emotion in this performance never fails to move me.
She is so freaking good! Perfect duet!
I should have realized it before listening to this song, but it evokes a lot of imagery from the film "What Dreams May Come," with Robin Williams. Tropes such as love, loss, suic*de, the search for self, etc. I think anyone who is moved by Ren's music might find a profound connection with the film. And it's as visually stunning as Ren's songs are audibly so. Awesome reaction, Knox.
Thanks for doing another REN reaction❤ Haunting is a perfect way to describe it, hauntingly beautiful. Love your breakdowns ✌🏻❤️
This was the second Ren track i heard. Needless to say i was already hooked before i got to this. My name is Paul and i am a Ren addict. As usual another great reaction. One of my favourites, who am i kidding they are all my favourites. Good work knoxy boi
Hey, Paul.
KH, do you have a cameo in the Money Game Part 3 video? Or at least a new job as the Jenny & Screech back alley tour guide? At least 3 of us need to know! Anyway, another fantastic reaction, cheers!
I truly believe that Ren will be remembered as the artist who broke the rules of songwriting and also wrote lyrics and invented beats that worked across all genres. Will he be as big as people like the Beatles, Rolling Stones, Bob Dylan, Elvis Presley, Stevie Wonder, Nat King Cole, Eminem, 2Pac, Snoop Dog etc? I really don't know, but it wouldn't surprise me in the slightest if he reached the same dizzying heights as any or all of those mentioned. He is a force of nature who has overcome some terrible traumas in his life and deserves to be recognised as a true phenomenon in the music/art arena.
This is such a powerful duet. I think this one may be more powerful than Chalk Outlines. There was so much emotion in this performance. It is truely a joy to watch people living with passion and sharing their gifts. Thank you for the reaction and the breakdown for some of the poetry. The music speaks to me, lyrics on the otherhand elude my sometimes. I appreciate someone pointing out these meanings for me, then the music I can feel makes sense with the story I hear.
After listening to both, multiple times, I have to say I like this one even more than Chalk Outlines
Love The French Song. Rapping in English and French. 😀
The synergy between Ren and Chinchilla is stunning. It's amazing how an artist with such specific vision as Ren has works so amazingly well with others; Trick The Fox, The Big Push, Sam Tomkins, Bibi, Eden Nash, Samuel Perry-Falvey and now reactors like Knox and The Wolf Johnson as well as several other artists.
Dude… your breakdown/analysis skills are amazing. You should be teaching a class on this sort of thing in a university. Always blown away by your reactions/breakdowns.
Hey Knox love your stuff could you do some of rens older stuff like depression, insomnia, freckled angels album
Yes yes yes! Insomnia!
Children of the Moon!!
@@NixyRose72 yes !
That was one hell of a long walk my dude! Also, the way Ren is looking at you in the pic has me in the feels 😂
The two of them busking in Brighton doing "One Dance/ Drunk in Love" is so very special!!! As always great reaction to this most AMAZING song.
Loved the reaction.
It is truly a hauntingly beautiful song.
Sung to perfection.
I know that you got to witnesses his creation 1st hand.
Personally, I DON'T want to know ANYTHING about it.
I am happy, anxiously waiting with the rest of the world.
To see his masterpiece unfold.
That is GREAT, that you got to have that experience.
Seeing history in the making.
This is such a beautiful and haunting piece, one of my favorite Ren songs if I dare say that. To me, it’s such an accurate depiction of depersonalization/derealization. The pain and trauma that it takes to get to a place where you feel that it can’t be real, this must be a sick joke, etc is immense and hard to describe. Ren brings you into this so well. I forgot how to be me when I was at my very sickest and to see someone else thriving and bringing a voice to lesser talked about issues that some of us face is so validating and refreshing.
This is hauntingly beautiful ❤ The intensity of the connection between Ren and Chinchilla is incredible. You should also check out “Crutch ft Bibi.” It’s an older song written before he found out why he was so sick. Both the song and video are stunning.
I liked your imagery of the a wave capturing the dynamic range and progression of the song/performance.
Great reaction, this one almost always makes me cry; beautiful but haunting. Please do some of Ren's older stuff. Hold On would be a fantastic one for you to break down.
Oooo yes!! I would love to see Knox react to "Hold on" it's a great track, amongst so many others.😊
Was waiting for this one, knew you'd love it! This gets to me every time I hear it. That second chorus section where you just kept saying 'wow'...yep, every. single. time. There's also a studio version of this song where Ren plays some cello, you can check that out in your own time if you want!
Ps: Can't wait to see what you saw during that 'walk' 👀
Seeing these teasers with Ren...wow! Did not know you were going to the UK to see Ren. When I saw the first photo of you Wolf and Ren it totally blew me away. Great reaction to 'How to Be Me'. Their voices together are powerful.
Man, Knox... you are just one of the top UA-cam reactors/creators out there. You've got so much insight, I learn from you every time I watch one of your videos. Keep up the amazing work.
Oh and btw., Ren and Knox Hill collaboration when?
I'm shocked that you hadn't reacted to this sooner love hearing your breakdowns and so unedited and in the moment of hearing things.
Man, I love the way you react. But I feel really bad that I haven't gone and listen to your own music yet. Right now I'm just obsessed with Ren's art bc it's healing me. This is such a chilling song and I'm still emotionally and psychologically processing all of this, but you are def. part of this rabbit hole. So, thank you for all you do.
Great reaction! The way this felt to me was Ren was singing this song from his friend Joe perspective and how he thinks Joe was feeling leading up to that horrible night, then at the end Ren switched to first person. That’s what makes Ren music so great there are so many ways it is perceived and all are perfect!
Agreed. The whole song makes much more sense from Joe's perspective. Only the last almost spoken part is from Ren's point of view, when he says that his friend gave up the fight, that same fight described all along in the song.
@anastaciaarmstrong1980 no it's on a rooftop balcony. Can see the building and door behind Ren
Really hope you'll do more of Chinchilla's solo stuff. Elements is such a banger!
Goddam Knox, you're keeping us in suspense! You can't just turn up where Ren is filming, have your pic taken, and then just keep us in the dark! I'm less than 2 hours away and I swear I'm coming over there to demonstrate my Money Game Part 1 (TM) authentic interrogation starter kit to get some answers unless you start spilling.
Can’t wait to see what you got up to with Ren! Love the breakdown, as always, Knox!
Chinchilla has such a voice that she can easily take over a song. I absolutely love her collaboration with Ren because they are beautiful singing together
Ren and Chinchilla together are unstoppable!!!
Knox, thanks for making these reactions. I love that you go through every little detail from production to vocals and even explain the bars and lyrics. You have enlightened me on so much in music and understanding it.
Keep up the great work, and have an amazing weekend! 😊
Never have really been into reaction videos until I came across your channel. I actually found you as a Ren fan and have watched all of your Ren reactions. I actually look forward to a new Knox Hill video as much as a new Ren release. Thanks for dissecting in such detail, you’re incredibly good at what you do.
❤beautiful ❤️ this one hurts..especially knowing all that Ren has gone through. I’m so happy that you were able to meet him in person. I’m sure it was surreal for both of you!❤️
The pair of them are so talented, intelligent, heart written lyrics, great voices and just an acoustic guitar to back it all up.
Im so excited to see the collaborations that come from mutual talent and respect.... Just think how amazing art can be if we take back control from these huge labels who just commoditise pure talent and take away the things that we can all genuinely connect with....
Art connects us, im so happy to see Ren waking us all up and turning us on to all the other talents that deserve it...
Im really hoping this is the start of change. ❤❤
This has to be my favorite song of Ren's and of course Chinchilla. ❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️. KH I knew you would speak my heart and thoughts on this song. Not only is this song beautiful, but it seeps under your skin, deep into your soul. Thank you for this incredible interpretation. ❤❤❤❤
Thanks for this one Knox! Appreciate your time and reaction. Can’t wait to see what you cooked up with Ren!! Much love, and have a great day!
Oh, if you can do Ren X Sam Tompkins - Blind Eyed (all 3 versions are unique, so pick as you like 😁).
Yes, the Blind Eyed official music video came first, and has the most interesting production. The live outdoor busking version is full of talent and enthusiasm. The live indoor MC sessions, on the Music Crowns channel, is the best overall performance, in my opinion, and the one I keep coming back to when I'm in the mood to hear this song again. But Blind Eyed ft. Angry Car Park Attendant is absolutely the most fun, and is NOT to be missed! Pick any two for a great twofer video, or go wild and do all four!
Can’t wait to hear more about your “walk”!
This is the best live duet EVER!!!❤❤
This is one of my favourite tear jerking moments from Ren X Chinchilla!
So moving emotionally!
I think this may have been recorded on the same bridge Jo......
We know what happened......
😢😢😢😢😢😢
No that's a myth. It's on a rooftop Balcony. Can see the door behind Ren
So, I found your channel a few years ago (around 2020) because of your breakdowns of ERB raps… That got me onto your music as well, which is phenomenal! You have everything my ADHD brain needs… good music, varying styles, and clever wordplay.
All of this considered… the fact that you and Ren managed to find each other makes me insanely happy, not just for your reactions to him, but you both seem to be genuinely nice people. All I’m waiting for now is a collaboration between you both and my music life will be complete! 😅
Much love from the uk!
Oh… also please react to his Drum and Bass version of Genesis.
Great reaction, can't wait to see what you and Ren got cookin up.😊
They wrote this together and clearly collaborate well - much better than the lyric video - Chinchilla is incredible ❤
Please PLEASE do more of Rens past work. He has been creating outstanding work for so long. I think you would love it all. 😊
I've been waiting for this!
My favourite thing about this song is how it can recontextualize itself in the last line.
My first interpretation was it was a person struggling with depression, with wanting to end it.
Every time after that it was a song about grief and guilt.
I just found this collab yesterday awesome to see you break this down
Thank you for finally reacting to this! Now with more context from his other song especially his new one and the interview witg Ren. The end makes more sense...
Brilliant thank you. Was patiently waiting on this one ❤️.
I love your reactions - and this was a great one, to a great song. Thank you
I had my Ren song feeling “mood” picked out by my mind for the day and again it changes.. it doesn’t seem to matter how many times I listen to a Ren song it never gets old. Thank you for the reaction.. hope your “walk” meeting Ren went fantastic..😜🤗🤫😶😂🫢
Fantastic comment 👀
Squinty 😑
Loved this reaction. Always appreciate your reflections and breakdowns. They give even greater depth and meaning to music that speaks to my soul. Thank-you.
Great reaction as always Knox! I am so excited all you have coming up and seeing pictures with Ren omg such a tease lol. I love it all!
This is amazing, I love seeing the two of you together!!😍 Can't wait to see what you guys have been working on! Hopefully you can tell us more about the process and what it was like❤
Brilliant reaction Knox as always ✌️❤💪
Another great reaction and analysis here. Top stuff!
Love love love your Ren break downs. Please don't stops! Made my day seeing this reaction 😊
your a good human knox! so appreciate you breakdowns and your respect for the art! nice way to end my evening. thx ✌🤟
Love how you capture the essence of a performance and all of the intricacies that goes into it. Thank you.
Absolutely love this. Getting very close to 1mil subs Knox, well done bro.
Always a awesome reaction Knox 🔥💜 I love this one by Ren. And also I really love your song "I Get Lonely" one of my faves 🔥💕
You caught the sun in the UK Knox 😎 looking forward to whatever you guys have cooked up. So excited, love from Brighton ❤
This is really good. Great reaction too. Looking forward to seeing what give been up to with Ren. The movement is so good to see.
Best reactor out there. Love your stuff!
Proud to see you almost to 1 million subs. You are killing it & it’s great to have been here for the ride 🙌🏼
I've realized that a lot of the songs that I like and listen to, I listen to because I watched your analises of it. With some songs I didn't really like it before but after I watch your videos it just gives the songs a new light.
Keep it up, I love watching your vids!
Knox you've done it again. Not just the music you choose to breakdown, but your knowledge is incredible. Cheers from Melbourne Australia 🙏🌏💙
Great reaction I get the feeling of grief from this.Grief takes your breath away and it's with you everywhere 😢
I discovered your channel Knox via your ren reactions and can see what a genuine decent man you are and oh my god that pic of you with ren and wolf was incredible, so happy I hope this is a blossoming bromance, proud of ya listeninh t
I’m so glad I caught this today, seeing it was posted yesterday. I thought you had already reacted to it for some reason, but I’ve watched A LOT of reactions for this one. It was cool to see at the end when you discovered it was about Joe, it was a moment 🥰
Absolutely haunting. And no, it wasnt filmed on "the bridge".
THANK GOD U MAKE A REACTION VIDEO ITS ONE OF MY FAVOURITE SONGS BY REN
So… I can’t wait to find out what you blokes have been up to. Anticipating with relish.
Great reaction Prof Knox! It’s a duo for the times. So emotive and almost otherworldly. I grew up with wonderful live music all around me from home with the fam and out in the local pubs and clubs and on the streets. That’s the music that makes my heart beat faster and engages my brain and feeds my soul.
Love your work❤
Love the bromance that’s been building with you and Ren,
Really hope you guys have done something creative together - look forward to seeing what you put out in the future.
Another great reaction and breakdown - you get it. The lyrics, the message, the vibe - which is probably another reason why you guys vibe so much.
(But saying that, with something as good as this it’s so easy to comment and appreciate)
Well done my man 👊
This is why I love watching your reaction videos. You get what he’s talking about!
Ren and Sam song Blind Eye Live by MC sessions or the angry car park attendance 😆 🤣 getting kicked out, but still singing 😆
great as always
Good lord, Mr. Hill, just when I thought you couldn't be any better at what you do, you exceed my expectations. Rock on, my man, you are the best. Thanks.
As a Brit 🇬🇧 we are VERY VERY proud of Ren and Chinchilla 😊🙏. They are talented beyond belief, been our little secret over here for sometime, now is their time to shine 🌞😊. We are the country that gave the world Shakespeare and the Beatles , now you can have these 2 🇬🇧😎🫡. Your welcome 🤗.
Shakespeare still inspires today, The Beatles paved the way for a lot of musicians and these two are doing the exact same for future generations. I don’t want to say everything they touch turns to gold, but man! They have smelted my soul! 😍❤️😍
The way they harmonize, their voices dancing around and through each other, is so intense. Their combination leaves me beautifully haunted.
Knoxxy getting into his singing bag?! I'm here for it! ❤ My favorite video of this song, is him actually doing it in his room, sitting on his bed! So emotional! I want to reach thru the screen and give him a hug every time I watch it!
They are absolute 🔥🔥🔥🔥
Let's gooo. Before 1Mil club here!! Way to go Knox, the best reactor on UA-cam, you deserve it!!
OK You've covered some heavy stuff lately, try 'Ren ft Eden Nash' - either 'Ocean' or 'Humble' (my fav of the two) either of them will cheer you up!
Great reaction, and I also loved your song at the start!
Amazing Reaction again Knox! It was so great to see you with Ren and Wolf.. I hope you and your family are having a great weekend!
Well done on this reaction Knox, looking forward to what’s coming between you and Ren.
Back to re-watch and prepare for the new interview!
Yeah i seen that pic of you ren and wolf. So cool. Yall are lucky but really its about how cool ren is. You guys are going to make the world a better place with your music and your kindness
Your reactions are great. Thank you.
This is one of my fav of his in both composition and tone. Love the round Robin bit. And so haunting in subject and sound.
