    I've been watching reactions to this song nonstop today, and it blows me away how few people acknowledge "some people know me as the voice that you hear when you loosen the noose on the rope." It's so staggeringly powerful. So thank you for at least responding to it.

    Here is some information on Ren's story, in case you didn't already know. I gathered it from old newspaper interviews, articles, and Ren's livestreams and posts where he discussed his condition. My comment has been copied and pasted by someone below, but I have since added some new information he missed.
    Ren Eryn Gill is a British musician/independent artist; born in Wales on March 29, 1990, or ‘91 (depending on which source you cite), he grew up in Brighton. Ren pursued a career in music from an early age. In 2009, while studying music performance at Bath Spa University, he began to experience health issues and was struggling to attend his lectures. In 2010, he was signed by Sony Records and was working on an album when his health deteriorated to the point where he was unable to continue and subsequently dropped by Sony.
    Ren's illness often kept him in bed for up to 23 hours daily. Ren was initially misdiagnosed with depression, bipolar disorder, and chronic fatigue syndrome, which led him to experience psychosis. It would take seven years before a doctor in Belgium finally correctly diagnosed Ren with autoimmunity, Lyme disease, and resulting damage to the brain, organs, joints, and PTSD. Ren eventually underwent stem cell therapy in the United States, which improved his health, but it has not been a cure.
    Ren is currently in Canada for more treatments, including surgeries, and will have to be there for at least six months (Summer of 2023). Ren’s Canadian doctor discovered that Ren also developed a condition called Mast Cell Activation Disorder, which has affected the myelin sheath in his brain, his thyroid, adrenals, as well as his bones/joints.
    Ren stated: "It's a lot to wrap my head around having to be away from friends, family, and a successful career, and almost feels like a total juxtaposition to the fact that my music is blowing up right now and spreading to all corners of the world, but that's life, we take the good with the bad."
    Ren’s recent wisdom tooth removal went well, but he is currently battling an infection following cavitation surgery, and he is not feeling well.
    Let's keep supporting Ren as he undergoes his treatments. Check out and subscribe to his channel, listen to some of his earlier work, like and comment on his performances, and let's lift Ren's spirits. If you are a believer, pray for him. Ren is an artist with something to say to this generation, and his work is needed in these troubling times. Here is the link to Ren’s GoFundMe page to raise money for his current treatment. www.gofundme.com/f/ren-get-better-from-lyme-disease-and-autoimmunity

    Probably the 1000th time I’ve seen this and I still nearly cried again. This is probably the most powerful piece of music/art I’ve seen in my 36 years on earth.
    I suffer myself as a lot of us do. Since discovering this track and rens other music, I duno, I’ve just been in a much better place. Like he said I may never win but desperately clinging and fighting to stay in the light just makes those dark days that much harder.
    I’m not sure we will ever be able to show ren how huge and powerful this track is to people it’s touched as equally. I just hope he finds peace and happiness and prosperity from it. ❤️

    Great reaction. “Hi Ren" is the song that put Ren on everyone's radar since December; it went viral and has garnered more than 6 million views since its debut, but he has been creating great music for more than ten years. Ren’s music videos are generally recorded live, often in a single take, although not necessarily the first take, and from various camera angles. His release, "Sick Boi," is almost another chapter to "Hi Ren." Many of Ren’s songs resonate with people because he addresses struggles that many others face every day.
    Ren plays multiple instruments (acoustic, electric, and bass guitar, piano, drums), has impressive vocals, is an excellent storyteller, and is quite the philosopher and poet. He is considered by many a modern bard; he calls his music “bardcore.” Ren’s earliest recordings on UA-cam are from his time in a band called “Trick The Fox,” consisting of Ren and his buddies Charlie and Tommy. Unfortunately, the band performed only briefly due to Ren’s onset of health issues. They are very talented. A fun clip to watch is “The Mash Up.”
    Ren’s trilogy "The Tale of Jenny/Screech/Violet" has been likened to a Shakespearean tragedy and is a prime example of his genius; it is a master’s class in storytelling. The three acts are haunting, and the conclusion will catch you off guard. The trilogy needs to be watched in the order given, as this is the flow of the storyline and is best watched as a whole rather than piecemeal.
    Ren’s collaborations with Chinchilla (“Chalk Outlines,” “How to Be Me,” “Sexual Healing,” “One Dance/Drunk in Love”) are beautiful and showcase his singing voice. His live music videos are especially impressive. Ren's personal reflections are threaded through many of his songs; "Insomnia," "Depression," “Diazepam," “Penitence,” “Dear God,” “Heretic,” “Dominos,” his "Freckled Angels" album, just to name a few, all deserve a listen. His song "Money Game" (Part I & II) is another recommendation, although it is less of a personal song than it is an indictment of greed and the resulting injustices in this world.
    Ren’s Hip Hop/Rap style songs are all worth checking out if you enjoy this genre; they are pretty amazing. Check out “The Hunger,” “Genesis,” “What You Want,” “Losing it (FISHER rap retake),” “Right here, right now (Fatboy Slim one shot retake),” "Life is Funny," “Love Music (Parts 1, 2, and 3),” “Crucify Your Culture,” “Power,” and his latest release, “Bittersweet symphony (The Verve retake).”
    As I recently discovered, Ren also recorded a cover of “Can't Help Falling In Love (Elvis Cover),” that is simply beautiful. Then there are his performances with Sam Tompkins (“Blind Eyed,” “Earned it /Mans World / Falling,” “Walking on the moon/No Diggity”), Eden Nash (“Humble,” “Ocean”), Bibi (“Crutch,” “Ahiahiaoha”), Molly McKinna (“Penitence”), his former bandmate, Romain Axisa (“French Song”), which are all great.
    Ren's performances as a member of the band "The Big Push" (which unfortunately broke up), their busking (street performances), concerts, and their live recordings, are awesome and well worth checking out. Ren's covers of "I Shot the Sheriff," "Wade in the Water," "An Englishman in New York," “Bongo Bong,” “War Pigs,” the songs "Oh My Woman," “Swan Song,” “Sweet Little Lady," "It's Alright," "Watch Out," “Dignity,” and so many others are equally impressive.
    In anticipation of his stay in Canada for more treatments, Ren prepared some music ahead of time to be released over the next six months that he expects to be gone. He released “Sick Boi” and “Bittersweet Symphony (The Verve retake),” which is another masterful work.

    This is art of transcendent beauty and an *important* song.
    Artists often struggle with imposter syndrome. There’s a movie starring Olivia Munn called “Violet” that rings of this and was a transformative experience for me-much the same as this song resonates.
    As a person who’s never been able to escape negative self-talk and imposter syndrome, *realizing* that I can exert the strength that destructive voice questions-strength that already resides within me-was sooo important.
    It takes time to push past the negativity-to make your own voice stronger, but if anyone out there is struggling with this, please please please *know* that you can do it.
    *Know* that I believe in you… but you don’t need me to-just like you don’t need the shroud of doubt that feels first of protection and then as a prison.
    You are *stronger* than that voice.
    You are stronger than you can *possibly* know…
    until you push back with softness or aggression-your choice.

      @@Len_M. I get the annoying part. I blame myself for the initial problems. I had poor eyesight growing up, but saved up and got laser surgery on my eyes around 18.
      This opened a whole world of sports for me. I started karate, rock climbing and hit the gym. Karate became an obsession, with me teaching and training 30+ hours a week, whilst also spending another 10-15 hours in the gym, fitting in rock climbing, running my own business and doing my house up.
      Something gave, I collapsed while at a DIY store and went from doing 100 press ups and 360 sit ups a night to not being able to climb a set of stairs. CFS/FM was not known at the time and I went through a plethora of tests, with everyone telling me, I was fine.
      Pain, fatigue, depression and brain fog followed me for around 16 years, with many, many relapses. Eventually, I was diagnosed with fibromyalgia, though there was(and still is) no effective way of curing it.
      I did improve... slowly. I got to the point I could work again. Unfortunately, a poor choice of company left me working 60-70 hours a week, whilst being paid for 40. The job was physically draining too, with a lot of pressure placed on my lower back and knees, but I stayed there for 6 years. Jobs were not easy to find, and bills needed paying.
      My back progressed to the point of being disabled, at which point I was let go from the company, even though there were options for me to work.
      I had a back operation, which helped for a year or two, before the pain and movement issues came back with vengeance.
      I did find a really nice firm, who allowed me to work from home and did not care if you were disabled. It was a nice reprieve, making me feel at least useful for a bit. For a while, I almost enjoyed myself. Then Covid arrived...
      Covid hit me hard, coming extremely close to killing me, and leaving me with some nice gifts when it left.
      It damaged my lungs, throat, vocal cords and vagus nerve, as well as making my already foggy brain even worse. Every time I cough now, I black out, and, with my damaged throat, I cough a lot.
      Still recovering from this, still blacking out on daily basis. At least I can speak again now, but I am tired and doing anything is a major struggle.
      I am just so very, very tired of it all at this point. *sigh*

      @@pklemming China should have major sanctions for what it did. They knew the Biologists who first were infected with Covid at the Lab and everyone covered it up, gaslit the public calling everyone who discussed the Lab leak theory. It's disgusting. They basically murdered 18 million People around the World. People like you who had complications should be allowed to sue. I thought I was going to catch it and accepted I was probably going to die. I’m on Biologic Medication which lowers your Immune System, plus eventually, I was on Prednisone as well which also severely lowers your Immune system. I basically go to the Dr’s, Pharmacy and then Home. I did have to get an MRI in June 2020, plus a Colonoscopy. I'm pretty sure I had it at one point but luckily nothing happened except a prolonged cough (as far as I know). I told the Dr. I'd rather die than get a bag (ileostomy not colostomy), but I couldn’t do that to my Mom so I agreed to have the surgery. It's not as bad as I imagined (I don't think I would have agreed to a Colostomy though), I can eat things that I could never before. It kinda sucks though, because they thought I was going to severely hemorrhage so they have to still take that section out plus reconnect my Small intestine. Hopefully, your symptoms resolve. Probably a stupid question, but I’m guessing you aren’t allowed to drive?

Even if you don't film a reaction I encourage you to listen to them. Don't forget to listen to this again without makeup so you can let those emotions flow through you.
