    I am 60 years old and I’m definitely not into rap. I watch reaction videos almost every evening. I saw where a lot of people were reacting to this video and I just kept skipping over it. I finally watched someone react to it a few weeks ago and I’ve probably watched at least 25-30 other people react to it since which means I’ve heard and seen it a lot! The first time I watched it, I cried. His pure talent is undeniable. I know a song is really good if… 1) it makes me cry or laugh really hard, 2) gives me goose bumps, &/or 3) leaves me absolutely speechless! (Just ask my husband…I talk ALL THE TIME!) 😂 This one really got to me and I cried because I don’t know anyone personally with mental illness (the mental illness part is just how I see this song/video). After about the 3rd or 4th time seeing/hearing it, I could actually make it through the song without crying and I really paid attention to everything going on; the lights, the guitar, his two voices, etc. To me, this was the closest illustration I’ve ever seen showing how someone might feel with a mental illness and I didn’t have a clue at how difficult it must be on the person with the mental illness. This kid’s talent is just totally unbelievable! His writing skills are beyond genius, the theatrics, the guitar playing, everything was so uniquely genius! I too hope he gets all the recognition he deserves. God bless him and thank you for your reaction!!

I have watched the video, and the reaction videos more times than I can count now. I have shared this song, and much of his music with any one that I know who appreciates a wonderful/talented/raw/honest/beautiful/creative..............................could go on and on...musician/performer. I am still, within myself, trying to find, place, and express all that I feel when hearing this song. I cannot. I do not think that I ever will. I feel like there is no one or even combined adjectives to describe this. Maybe that is the point. Cheers to you. Be well, be safe. Be you, always.

    Even when you hear those opening guitar chords you can hear some notes are overplayed, I believe this is on purpose as he is establishing the feeling that something is not quite right. Every aspect of this performance is a work of craftsmanship that is seldom even approached by other artists. Another indication of the genius behind the performance is the fact that it was filmed "Live", and as such comes, so close to the perfection (If not slightly eclipsing Queens Live Aid performance back in '85). Truly I hope Ren reaches the levels that he so richly deserves. D.J. Fat Cat 1989 - 2019 retired.

    From an musician's perspective I see this is like a magnum opus from a musical genius. I say like because I don't what else he is capable of and he is still so young. pure fkn genius. His use of dimished is perfection. This combined with the dissonance he creates that signifies the dark side painting a haunting picture with amazing sonic imagery. I knew this was something very very special from the very beginning. Almost like a bard would've done from ye olde times.

      Coming of age in the 80’s I perceived rap as being mostly poor quality poetry spoken over sampled beats. Since discovering a select few modern artists I now wish I had paid more attention (though my critic still holds for many rappers). Now, especially, when I find a rapper that puts together their own beats and writes amazing poetry, I eat it up. Ren is one of those but so much more on top of that.

I stumbled on yours late in that process, but yours was the first I felt compelled to leave a comment on.

    I have watched this song over and over. I have followed this guy since he started singing with his band The Big Push and his friend Sam Tomkins.
    I am 68yrs Old, i remember when the Beatles wrote Help and the reaction people had, how it resonated with them. this, for me, is beyond that. It's a work of genius. It should be owned by the public especially in todays world of mental stress. Wow, well done REN, I FOR ONE BELIEVE IN YOU.
    Love the reaction.

      Yes, as iconic as the release of the Beatles,but more so because he is a by the people for the people independent which is the power in what he does and a good part of why hi Ren is so powerful. I hear people say they feel heard by this vulnerable bard like they’ve never been before in their life because it’s so relatable. It has the impact of the Beatles with the mental acuity and heaviness of Paul Atreides of Arrakis. This carries with it a beacon that no self serving media corporation promotion could ever equal. It’s a new form. Performance art is the most powerful media on the planet. This genius knows that. Boom

    The other reactions I have seen from this song are all people's first time seeing Ren. It is so refreshing to see someone already familiar with his work amazed with this masterpiece. It's so heartwarming to see that your first time reaction was very close to ours, your mouth still dropped to the floor at the end. I am so excited for Ren's star to rise, and show Sony they made a HUGE mistake dropping him.

    I was thinking how well that Ren would do if he was in a movie of some sort ... I couldn't help but draw a parallel between Ren and Johnny Depp. They are both musicians and clearly Ren can act. I keep imagining that those two would light up a screen together. This is just the start with Ren. I have a feeling he will be WOWING us for a long time coming.

    I've watched dozens of reactions to this song since a friend turned me on to it about a month ago, and yours is the absolute best! Thank you for a great video. Ren HAS become iconic, and it's fantastic that you've seen him live. I hope with every fiber of my being that a) he regains his health, which he seems to be on the way to and b) he gets the recognition he serves, which also seems to be happening. It's a dark time, and he is my ray of hope at the moment. Where there's poetry and music this amazing, there is hope.

    You're the only reactor I've seen so far that was familiar with Ren beforehand and that's really cool! 3 months and Hi Ren is almost to 10 million views. Never seen a video take off like that, especially considering the length and the world's very short attention span. But it is so engrossing that you don't even notice. His last video, Illest of Our Time, dropped 9 days ago and is just about at a million views.

    I just found Ren today. He contracted Lyme disease right after siging with Sony and was pretty much bedridden for a while. They misdiagnosed it as chronic fatigue as first so he wasn't properly treated for a while. That led to his serious mental health decline. Great to see such a comeback though.

    Glad you truly saw the uniqueness of Ren before and how he's evolved. Universe works mysteriously sometimes as right now as Rens music is being praised by literally millions he's had to take a break from it all for new treatments, but universe seems on his side as it's almost perfect his life's paths timing.
    It's always about timing and Ren is insync with aligned stars and planets.

There' so much going on that I am ENGAGED with nearly all my senses. My brain is lit listening to him. The flow ...that thing he's doing with his mouth?? The guitar!!! THE GUITAR! I can't deal!!!!

    His busking is brilliant even though they are do overs of other artists. He brings something extra special to the party.
