      Not everything. She thought the song was co-written. In reality Ren wrote it. :)

    Ren in multiple interviews has stated that Chinchilla is his musical sibling. His musical counterpart. The female version of him. And that’s why whenever they perform together it’s magical…beautiful. I need a whole album of them like yesterday.

    • @tattoodude8946

    I love that! "They stand in the gap..." ....as if they are liaisons for those of us who are not sensitive enough to see or understand the layers of unmanifest creation. They give it a voice so that we can hear ✨🤍☘️🕊️✨ I love your perspective! You have a well-rounded heart and a wisdom that shows that you've experienced the spectrum of life. Thx! gk

    Oh Ren & Chinchilla, what a combo, marriage made in Heaven. My favourite songs by Ren are with this lady..... magical. She lifts Ren up which is quite a feat.
    Nice words at the end. It does feel like they were divinely placed to help.
    Hope you have the day you deserve too. 👍

    REN isn't an artist- he's a phenom. He is a portal to another musical Universe and you would be hard-pressed to get the same emotional reaction to his craft than anyone else. God bless the lad.

    My music playlist has changed so much since I first heard Hi Ren. I now have almost every song I could find from Chinchilla . Sam Tompkins fantastic as well I am currently listening to everything I can find from him not to mention the guy’s in The Big Push. It has been so much fun discovering so much new music.❤❤❤

  • @supertuscans9512

    @MichaelJohnson-kq7qg Рік тому +3

    In a world where every musical project is processed through a dynamic compression machine, Ren and Chinchilla 'mix' this song live by moving in space with reference to the mic. The live 'mix', the absolute silence of the underground area, and the astounding acoustics are why this sounds like absolutely nothing else.

  • @xx1CRU

    This song has haunted me, in a good way if that makes any sense😅 ever since I heard it the first time. I've gone through some things, a lot of things actually, and this song speaks to me on a very personal level. It is such a beautiful song top to bottom; the medley, lyrics, the incredible emotion both Ren and Chinchilla put into their performance, the choice of arrangement like the drop out of the guitar leaving just them in perfect synergy acapella, their choreography where they are in each other faces like they are connected on a spiritual level.. everything about this song I love. Ren is a special human. Not only insanely talented and creative but also just an amazing person with the such a beautiful mindset about the world. And Chinchilla is absolutely incredible. When they perform together it is absolute magic everytime. I'm a huge fan of them both, but Ren just struck a chord with me from the first time I heard his music. I can't get enough of his music, interviews, anything he does I'm here for it. And I'm also always here for my daily dose of Britt's reactions!!😅 You have the best energy and such a dope personality. As long as you're doing this UA-cam thing, I'm here to support you. Hope you have the best day Britt!! And anyone that takes the time to read this, I hope your life is full of love and happiness!! ..and also to those that don't read this, even though they wont see it😅✌️❤️ y'all!!!

    This is my favourite duet over the past 25 years, I seriously can't stop playing it along with the cover from them both, One Dance ( Drake ) and Drunk in Love ( Beyonce ) live performance busking in Brighton UK, I promise you will love it!! Great reaction to this amazing track.

  • @jasonbuckley4118
    @jasonbuckley4118 Рік тому +1

    When i first listened to the song i never thought they said Erase in lyrics when they say chalk outline.
    but they say :
    Walk around in a Floating Chalk Outline
    We trace ourselves in these chalk outlines
    Erase ourselves in these chalk outlines
    The feeling goes and you draw a chalk outline
    but i always heard it as:
    Walk around in a Floating Chalk Outline
    We trace ourselves in these chalk outlines
    'We Raise' ourselves in these chalk outlines
    The feeling goes and you draw a chalk outline
    Personally i love both meanings.

    Catching up on your content once you popped into my feed. I must say, other reactors dissect these songs musically, but you connect with the song's message in ways others do not.

    Yes! Thankyou. Not many people mention that he always picks the best accoustic environments for his vocals. Although you paused and only mentioned half a line @ 6:00. The whole lyrics were, "In the gallows I'm ballanced on my toes so I can breath." I'm sure you know what the gallows are.

    Ren is honesty. Singing live is a version of that: not that it’s wrong to produce or effect your vocal, but he’s saying this is me, this is my voice, ima try to make it good but in the end if I slip it’s still me, I embrace it.

  • @Meeckle

    Ren is a true gift from God.
    Ren was an incredibly gifted artist, you have seen some of the earlier stuff, just true talent, true soul.
    But then God sent a tick, a single little tick to turn Ren into something so much more. The greatest artists are often the most troubled and it's through their struggles we learn how to deal with ours.
    Thank You God
    Thank You Ren
    and Thank You tick

I do tend to gravitate towards a particular type of reactor, but ill say this, now that I've watched half a dozen of your videos. I cant wait for more of his music to come out so i can get your perspective. Thank you for taking your time to give it justice. All I know, is how do we get more Ren Chinchilla music.

    I lived in those Chalk Outlines for too many years, living with severe CPTSD. After almost 60 years, I have broken through, and I'm living my life free of those chalk outlines after going no-contact with my abusive family. It wasn't an easy decision, and it honestly came in fits and starts these last three years. I finally dropped my sister last May, and she was the last abuser and family member other than my children, who I had in my life. I've never felt more free to be just me.
    I was given every antidepressant and they made me worse. I finally had a DNA test to see what antidepressant I could take, and it came back as zero. There wasn't one single one that wouldn't have a side effect. All but three were in the red. The three caution ones they had me try two, and both gave me horrible side effects. Doctors think drugs are the only answer sometimes, and I find that deeply sad

    We lose ourselves trying to be what the world wants and expects us to be, the "Chalk Outline". The world has forgotten that being sad is part of life. But, it you feel to sad, or to happy, just take a pill, so you fit in the chalk outline. We are forgetting how to FEEL! And when you lose feeling, you lose empathy. Is it any wonder our world is screwed up?

    I was on opioids for 23 years. Strong ones. (380 milligrams of morphine a day) I know what he means. You take these pills because you have to, just to do basic things like sweep / mop or do your laundry. But you do walk around in a fuzzy chalk outline. Not quite your real self, and not liking who you are when you take them, but not able to manage daily life if you don't take them. GREAT reaction Britt! 🎶🔥💖🙏🏼😎

    You should really check out Chinchilla’s solo music she goes HARD in her music. Her songs “Fingers” and “Little Girl Gone” have really blown up recently and feel like you would really enjoy them. I’d recommend watching her “Live for Hunger TV” version of “Fingers” it is soooooo powerful!
