    What makes a perfect performance? It's not perfection... That's for sure. It's ENGAGEMENT and EMOTION... And INTERACTION!
    This precious piece of art immerses you in so many familiar emotions, you're not quite sure what to do with yourself after you've gone through the experience with your leaders, Ren & Chinchilla.
    I continue to be blown away Ren and his music. In this video we also get to analyze certain sections of what's going on vocally and gain a better understanding of how we can infuse our own voices with inspiration... With the help of Ren and Chinchilla!
    Enjoy with me!!

I want so badly for Ren to come out of this treatment feeling great. I'm not even joking I'll fly 3000 miles to see him perform live either by himself of his band. He is an incredible artist that has pulled me back into the deep love of music that I thought was lost somewhere at the end of the 90s. I'm playing guitar, writing and singing again. He is a true inspiration.
    This song like so many of his song resonates with me on a deep, deep level.

    Also Buckley-ish: the vulnerability and pain that makes it sound like he’s literally dying in front of you and he’s hoping you’ll take this message to his family. The strength and control in his voice makes some really tender, low-power fade outs that maintain vibrato all the way through and peter out roughly but beautifully.

    The amount of soul he brings to this song is just out of this world.
    Every time i hear this this song i just burst into tears during the acapella segment.
    He really just has the most uncanny ability to pierce right into my soul.
    The interaction here between Chinchilla and Ren makes it hit home so much harder because the connection they share of complete understanding of what they are singing and i can only assume that both of them have gone through very hard things in life to be able to embody the emotions to this degree.
    You know how we talk about being on the same wavelength when talking about finding partners?
    That wavelength is very real when it comes to understanding pain and suffering as well.
    I might be biased because this song hits really close to home as someone who struggles daily for my entire life with mental health issues.
    So the context of this song cuts deep into my soul and it is a perfect depiction of how it feels.
    I think REN is the most poetic storyteller of our generation hands down, and Chinchilla is no slouch in this piece either, she really nails it.

    Great reaction! Thank you so much for continuing on Ren! Looking forward to more! Another band that would be great for vocal analyzing is Nightwish. Their lead vocalist, Floor Jansen, is a classically trained soprano and has a little training in opera. They have a lot of symphony in their music as well. The lyrics are deeply poetic and range thru many topics. I've never seen someone be able to relay the emotion and feels of a song so well, even through a screen, and still have it hit you after years. Her breathing and technique is amazing. She can do many styles from opera all the way to death growls. I think you'd really have a lot of great things to show through reacting to them. I would start with the Nightwish song Ghost Love Score Live from Wacken 2013. Just a suggestion! Thanks so much for your detailed breakdowns on the vocal aspects. I found you on Hi Ren, and have subbed for the ride. Thanks for sharing your knowledge and thoughts with us all! Blessings to you & yours from Alabama!

    That was a very good breakdown of this performance.
    If you want another song where Ren is singing. You could try. Ren Ft. Bibi "Crutch"
    It's so powerful. He wrote it after he had a breakdown.
    Which he acts out in the video. Amazing.
    Anyone who is not moved by Ren's music.
    Must already be dead.
    It a few years old now & worth a listen even if you don't feature it on your channel.

    You're so right! I see so many recommendations for singers who are technically perfect, in certain ways, and I'm usually left flat, exactly because there's no soul, there's no rawness, no edge, no real emotion. So many just mimic emotion and it just doesn't work, for me anyway. It's usually those slight imperfections that create perfection. Add in a little rawness and real character and I'm there. :)

    Can we talk for a moment about the fact that this was a single shot video too. Some very deliberate focus pulls throughout. Made me feel like the camera was part of the performance too.

    Such a fascinating breakdown for me as someone who is not musical at all, but appreciates and recognises great music even though I don't know how or why it has captivated me or given me the frisson- the way you sing and demonstrate the difference between how a flat note would convey and hold such less emotion than the way Ren tails off into a "head note" for example, gives me that "Ahh, I see, to something that was previously unexplainable to me.
    I also found your obvious eargasm at 14:04 highly entertaining lol

    I could try, and I could try really hard, but I don't think I could enjoy a reaction video more than this. I absolutely adore this song and your reaction to it is fantastic. Love the way you pull the technicalities out and break them down. Really hope both Ren and Chinchilla get the recognition they deserve for this performance. Breathtaking!
    Great stuff Chris - thank you!

    I have been saying to myself how related Ren and Jeff Buckley are. I am glad you and even Ren acknowledged this. Jeff Buckley is in my top 5 favorite artists. The strumming and his mild reverb is so Buckley along with his vocals. Your reactions are blowing me away. Thank you!

    • @socialops
      @socialops Рік тому +1

      Agreed. At 17, I discovered Buckley too late and spent years searching for every recording he ever made. Now I'm 40 and Ren is giving me that same feeling with completely different styles. Now I'm just praying for his recovery so I can find a way to watch him live.

    Ren's songs are incredible. They're so engaging and stunningly written they immediately feel like classics, as if they're covers of old songs we've known for years. Quite a few reactors have asked if they're covers for this very reason.

    Ren is such a talent. His back catalogue of music has so many hidden gems. People like to list the same few songs to react to but to be honest he has so much songs that are just as good as them or even better.
    Also, Chinchilla has a stunning voice but I cannot get over those horrid finger nails...
