You've done a lot of heavy Ren so far. You need to check him out with his band The Big Push. Check out their performance video called "I Shot The Sheriff/Road to Zion/Hip Hop"
100% this. Make sure to look for the video with the RED SUSPENDERS. Looking forward to more brother 👍🏻👍🏻
For sure..also, keep “Power” in your pocket anytime you could use a lift. Reaction not even required- it’s my go-to when things get tough .
Yes, great suggestion! There's also playful, cheeky Ren in his rap retake of Losing It, by fellow Australian Fisher. 🐟
I believe we are forgetting the soul of "Troubles" or even back on 74 retake ❤
@@declanmoore9005 we've forgotten nothing. And, not or, my friend, is the way.
He didn’t do this in a hospital, just in his mate’s apartment building, and they still managed to create such a beautiful film. Way too good. I can’t imagine the logistics of filming something like this. They actually filmed Violet’s tale in a bicycle storage room in the apartment complex. They bought a very small bed for the hospital sequence, and had to do many things to make the room they were shooting in look like a hospital room
He bought a hospital looking bed for the shoot and when it arrived it was a kids bed so proceeded anyway
ive seen this song so many times and every time I find a reactor who gets it, I feel like im watching it again for the 1st time. when you mentioned about violet being silent, I got chills. then when you realised how the ending fits all together, the chills took over once again.
thank you
I completely agree. Maybe why I have watched like 804 reactions to hi ren.
@@tjh5716 I feel like ive seen every reaction to hi ren too and still, the ending will bring me to tears. when he stands up and sings.. its so beautiful
I love it when the reactor is obviously actually observing the words ren is saying I get so mad at some “what who’s screech?”…..LISTEN
Or in Violeta tale they miss her meeting Stevie and think it’s her dad at the end
Now you truly see the meaning of the term Bardcore.
I've seen Jenny and screech hundreds of times now. I think you're the best reactor ive seen now on this trilogy 👍👍 you got it, and you really appreciated Rens' genius in music. Good on ya dude 🤘
Wow. That's incredible. Thank you so much
Thats our modern day bard right there. Its insane how talented he is, eh? Glad to see you back! 😊💜
Thousands of Ren reactions later,,,, top tier my friend, top tier!
Sheesh... thank you. I don't really know what to say to that.
@@reachmeorteachme I've seen a lot of reactions to this
from why's Ren making a phone call in the middle of a video? to
just not getting the ending
well done mate watching it again with your reaction was terrific
Ren is a modern day bard painting such vivid imagery with his storytelling that it pulls you in and forces you to keep watching - even when it gets physically uncomfortable during Violet’s Tale. And Ren uses this ability to shed light on far too real issues in the world. Ren is special.
Anyway great reaction! Now you get to wait in eager anticipation with the rest of us, cause Ren has said that he and his cinematographer Sam have plans to film a pilot to pitch to Netflix when Ren has finished treatments in Canada. All we know is that it will be in the same raw style as this trilogy, but that is enough for me to say that if Netflix doesn’t give Ren his own show, they are fools 😂
Oh and yes, the one problem with Ren is that you want to just dive deep into the rabbit hole until you reach the bottom. Glad I’m not a reactor and have to hold back 😂 But happy it means we’re getting more Renactions whenever you’re able to film them ❤
No worries on the timing of your reactions. We will be here for it ❤❤❤Love your appreciation of Ren's talent. Just wait.....it gets better and better!
Quiet,,,,,, he needs do do them all and do them NOW😂😂😂❤❤❤
Brilliant reaction, exactly how I felt when I first watched it, isn't it unique and f#£king first class ❤
All 3 songs are one take, simply perfection.Everything is planned down to the nano second
When Stevie says 'Do you think I want to do this?' I think of the incredible Aussie documentary about family violence called 'Look what you made me do.' It hits deep how entitled some people feel to use violence and manipulation and blame others for their anger.
Loved your reaction, welcome to the lyrical, musical genius of REN. A Renegade here, I’m obsessed with everything REN produces. Pure brilliance!! ❤❤❤
Jenny's tale, there is a person sitting on their balcony overlooking where the mugging/murder is.
It is presumed she is a street walker....makeup (Rosie on her cheeks), high heels, walked there 1000 times and wanted to escape. Was the original murder Ren read about in the paper a street walker killed by a young teen?
Screech's Tale, implied from an instagram short film of the night leading up to this murder, that perhaps Patrick and the girlfriend are both busy in the same place?
Violet's tale, Filmed at Sam's (?) appt. block. Started down in a basement room used for storing bikes. They removed the racks and set up as a hospital, with a kid's size bed (mistake!).
He gives us a warning with "...the devil comes to dance..." (Immortal Technique) that things will turn dark. Some have suggested Stevie was not the father, perhaps her dad was; hence accusing her of lying.....? I think the dad is Stevie and the lying is her pretending to be asleep. It makes sense to the story if James inherited his dad's temper.
I think the baby named Screech is just to cater to any dummies listening, even still, some people do not make the connection until it is explained to them! You did quite well. You also did not ask who Violet was as the last song started. Most people ask, then get so wrapped up in the story, they never mention it again, even if they stop countless times throughout! A testament to your self disciplined personality (well done not listening to any Ren!!!!), you are willing to just wait and find out who Violet is from the song itself.
Some of Rens early stuff, some of his recent stuff, or the Money Games trilogy......what will it be? I look forward to hearing soon, which you pick next.
I believe it was his mate Jake's apartment block. I think I heard Viktus say so in an interview somewhere. These are the back stairs, and the flat/front entrance are shown in Animal flow. It was Jake's car used in Murderer, and the bit in Money Game part 3 about Jimmy as a teenager was based loosely on him.
24:43 born on the same day and died on the same day
Great reaction! Have watched many reactions to this brilliant piece of art by Ren, and you are the first to mention the names of Jenny and Screech being named instead of Jenny and James - I guess we have to allow Ren some poetic license to interchange the names in this instance for rhyming convenience! I am so glad you picked up on all the nuances and details that Ren demonstrates in this piece - and yes, definitely bard core! Love Ren, loved your reaction. (..football hooligan...🤣)
The tales were originally released some time apart so I understand Ren chose to name the twins Jenny and Screech at the end to make the twist hit home with as many viewers as possible. Nice reaction
The wait between releases where agonising ❤
I agree with the "critique" of the baby being called Screech, however I reckon Ren also understood that it may slip past too many people if he didn't use the street name. Quality reaction mate.
My impression was that it was something like reverse foreshadowing in a way. Like Screech was all he was bound to become from birth. In the same way we only know Jenny as 'Jenny who walked the streets', we only know James as 'Screech the delinquent'. Also a call back to how Jenny and Screech died one street apart.
They are in tbe back lanes of Brighton fir the Tales,though he says London
He says Screech intentionally because he didn't trust people's nemory/intelligence. He felr toi many woykd miss it if he said James .
You happen to be exceptional❤
The tales started with him reading a bewspaper artcle of a 14 yr old boy killing a woman in London. He wondered what would lead a 13 yr old boy there. The rest is all Ren. There is a live 360⁰ view perfirmance of the Tales that i know you would love. Look for it.
😂😂😂😂😂 I knew exactly when that head bobbing at the beginning of violets was gonna stop😂😂😂
Yep
😂😂😂 everytime it's the same.
I tell myself, oh mate you're vibing huh?! 😅
They rented the hospital bed (notice it is a kids bed, it was all they could get) and the IV is an enema bag.
That was a great reaction. Subbed for more Ren
Well done sir! Always good to see a new reactor who appreciates Ren's remarkable talent.
Some of my favs: Bongo Bong, Back on 74, What you want, Money game 2 & 3, The Big push.👍
Its not only Ren who is talented, Sam, the videographer is tremendously gifted as well.
I cannot believe how much I adored your reaction. Every single aspect of his performance that you called out jumped out at me and I so enjoyed watching you marveling at his genius. Thank you! Brilliant reaction. 🩵🩵🩵
Ya even noticed Screech’s view blurring and going dark. LOVING this reaction. ☮️♥️
What amazing writing, singing playing and acting from Ren and Cinematography from Sam
Thx for your take on it brilliantly done and well explained
Violets tale was filmed in an apartment building I was told.
Starting in a bike shed they moved the racks out and quickly painted it. Having bought a bed which was accidentally childs size, Ren ordered it!
They gatheted the other things needed and made a hospital ward
In the night without permission guerilla style!
They knew the building and chose it for the acoustics
Sam's apt actually. Same place where they filmed Animal Flow.
@@jcanino20 Benny's place. Sam doesn't live in Brighton.
@@LoutTsu My bad. I thought I had heard Sam's name in one of Ren's interviews. Thanks for the correct info. 😉
Only just past Jenny’s tale and you’ve already noticed things that few people do. Like the call back to “I guess that she escaped”… many many MANY people get confused and think that means she somehow got away.
Great so far. Love it. ☮️♥️
Great reaction to a genius' masterpiece...!
This man’s technical ability on the guitar is astounding.
His storytelling to go with it has been some of the best I’ve seen, thank you for introducing me to this lad
Brilliant reaction mate - and interesting insight into the betrayal Violet may have felt by her mother knowing what was going on and not doing anything about it. I don’t think anyone else has picked up on that - bravo!
❤ New RENegade sub here! Absolutely love your reactions and appreciation of Rens abilities and real music and artistry in general!
TRADGEDY or MIRACLE, he did this cleverly to bring your attention back so you don't miss it
Loved seeing your reaction at the end 😂 Don't get hung up on the Screech/James bit. Just bow to his master storytelling ❤
I’m just gonna keep commenting… can’t hurt the algorithm, right??
HOMIE CAUGHT the rewinding!! AND the frigging PAUSE to let Violets mother’s depravity set in for a sec. Whaaaaat?! I’ve only seen ONE reacter get this much. One! And he’s considered the best in the business. Let’s goooooooo
Dude you do you. You are making the best decisions for you and the family with the information you have. Thank you for being you ❤
Money game 3 is going to melt your mind.
Im so envious of you having Ren's whole catalogue in front of you. Oi Oi Oi 😍
Everything is timed to a beat/rhythm in this video. It’s all calculated because of the one take shoot. REN’s musical performance is Epic! Great reaction there…subscribed!
Amazing, right?! I've seen/listened to this trilogy so many times and it never gets old. You should check out his Money Game trilogy. They're more loosely connected but fantastically performed and raise some important discussion topics.
with Money game 1,2 & 3 they don't have to be watched together, but I don't think anyone will complain if you do
perhaps 1 & 2 together would be my recommendation
ren is an entire one-man music industry!
Absolutely awesome reaction! You point out so many great things about this trilogy
You're right about details.
Two more, clues on the walls. As Jenny walks along, there is a picture of a girl with SEX written above.
With Screech, there is artwork that personifies his character.
Ren is a Master of Details!
At the end of Screech's Tale, the blue trash bin keeps coming into frame and leaving frame... Like flashing blue police lights......
Brilliant reaction, your in for a treat following the Rabbit hole.
Another thing ive not heard mentioned is how every 3rd or 4th line backs up the previous lines so you cant misunderstand what is going on, he continually reaffirms what already happened that's why I'm baffled when folks cant follow whats happening,
Great great reaction!! Congrats on your new job. You “will” be successful because you have amazing perception, and intellect, along with a natural comfortable way to describe it. That’s not normal by the way. You, like Ren, are not normal… lol. I really look forward to following your travels down Alice’s (REN’s) rabbit hole. This will be almost as enjoyable for me as it will certainly be for you. Let’s go!!! Doesn’t really matter what song you choose… Ren, Big Push, they’re all amazing. You’ll see and agree!
Just love your reaction man ! And I agree so much with you ... James instead of Screech... I thought the exact same thing when I heard it for the first time ... And you're the first reactor I've heard who said it 😜 Anyway, he's mind blowing !! Thanks for this excellent reaction 👍😘
And the accoustics in a natural environment ❤
I think he like Mozart has it in his head before it’s ever finished for us ❤
Great reaction, and you definitely spotted somethings that other reactors missed, a couple of points from me, the guitar part when you said it was spiralling out of control. Was actually time winding onwards to the current in 2005, with Violet in hospital, as others have said the reason he chose to use Screach without being too stereotypical was mainly for his American listeners, as I've seen reactions where even then they struggled and some have said "well who was James then was he the farther or grandfather" lol, so he thought he needed to be a bit obvious here. Another observation most reactors miss is how dirty the soles of his socks are in the hospital bed, this is because to get this right in one take he has to do a few takes. One of which was someone shouting put to him to shut up when filming Voilets tale as this was filmed in a more populted part of 'The Lanes' shopping area in Brighton, as always Ren did let the authorities know he is filming in case anyone called the police. As others have said for the more fun side of Ren definately do some The Big Push start with either his Busking video of I Shot The Sheriff/ Road To Zion/Hip Hop or his live video of their cover of Manu Chao's Bongo Bong recorded on the roof just outside Ren's appartment (where he also recorded the start for the video of Murderer). Then Maybe tackle some of his amazing duets with the likes of Chinchilla, Eden Nash, Sam Thompkins, Liv Sangster and Bibi, they are also amazing, and true to his belief in helping other good artists, as Ren has often quoted 'a rising tide raises all ships'.
Evidence to his "rising tide" is that he let's reactors monetise their reactions. He's all about the shared experience and lifting people up. And I absolutely love him
@reachmeorteachme I never understood artists from demonetisation and who issue copyright strikes, surely reactors are potentially helping to promote your work and open your music, comedy etc to new people, who will probably buy/stream or download tour work ot watch your movie, play comedy show, it seems either a bit biting the hand that feeds you of even worse the reactors are promoting your talent and yet you are taking money from them. Ren is definitely doing the right thing here, and more creative should do the same. Another example was.how he met Sam Tompkins, Ren had finished his busking for the day and was heading home when he saw a young lad (a 16 yo Sam) trying to sing with no accompaniment or amplification but his voice was really good, Ren went up to him and said you have a good voice but you will never get people stopping and giving you money if they can't hear you, you need an amp and you should get a guitar, Sam admitted he couldn't play guitar and didn't have an amp, so Ren said I'll.set mine up for you, not only did he do that he played guitar to accompany Sam for a couple of hours and he let Sam keep all the takings, thisnis how he came to do a few duets with Sam and Sam has since learnt the guitar and has now opened for Justin Bieber in Europe and in Norway Justin had Sam duet with him. When asked about Sam's rise Ren said howmpleased he was and said it was nice to see as he imagined it would have been how his career would have gone if he had not gotten so ill, Ren had a record deal with Sony at 19 and had started recording his first album when he became ill and Sony dropped him as he was too ill to finish recording.
Thank you,thank you,thank you!!!!
You are the very first that I have seen to mention that is should have been Jenny and James at the end not Screech.
His mates called him Screech, it’s not his birth name.
There isn’t a lot of people that notice or mention the fade out after Screech got shot either. I love that effect. It’s like his soul left the body.
I love your reactions!!!
Awesome!!!❤❤❤😊
Had Ren used James, many more reactors would have missed the twist than already have.
Considering that the Mother died and the Father went to a hole somewhere.
They may not have been named at birth.
Nice! G'Day from Renegade in W.A
Loved your reaction. I couldn't help myself at the end with your "whoa's"... All I could think of was, "Yo! Adrian!" from Rocky! Cannot wait to see what you do next.
Brilliant reaction. Sir Andrew Lloyd Webber who knows a bit about telling stories through music, called Ren a genius and he certainly is
Performed in the city of Brighton, on the English south-east coast.
Great reaction .Thanks from the 🇬🇧
I love it when a reactor properly gets it. You fully understand and appreciate it which very few do. And, I've always thought the same thing about the end. It should be Jenny and a boy named James 😂. But we're nitpicking aren't we 😂.
Great reaction buddy 👍 😊
Too many people would miss the twist! Many did anyway using Jenny and Screech, I don’t know how but they did!! Hmmmm
Fucking A+ reaction bro. This is what we come for.
I loved your genuine reaction thank you! I think the story at the end ia being told by the Narrator’s perspective therefore that’s why he says Screech. Also Screech rhymes with streets so there’s that important fact too. But as a mom of twins I appreciate the names had the same first letter. My twins also have the same initials. Ren thinks about all the details and I love that. Thank you again . Brilliant
I simply can't wait for your another shock face when you react to Money Game 1, 2 and 3. Loved so much you reactions on Ren :)
At 22:50 he was going back FORWARD in time with the guitar 😊.
Filmed in Brighten, apartment building and the same location for Animal Flow. Oh yeah, put that one on your list😊
Brilliant comments from you, you got so much from this masterpiece.❤
In one of Ren's instagram or Twitch talks (?), he talked about his creative process as being very intuitive, like the fitting together of puzzle pieces. He said it was almost as if the lyrics, music and ideas were coming in from outside of him. He wouldn't rest until a particular "piece" of a song would "arrive" from that source and just fit right in. That, of course, is so different from the so-called "songwriting" used to make hits in the music industry, where record labels follow strict formulae and bleed the true emotion and humanity out of each word and note. Loved your reaction!
Great reaction and breakdown, you caught a lot there for the first time watching, kudos! 👍🎶
I have watched dozens of these. Your reaction to Jenny and Screech is by far my favourite. I loved seeing you get it. You have a new subscriber/follower
Like you I am a massive life long Floyd fan and I believe Ren's guitar skills are up there with David Gilmour. I do not say that lightly. I found Ren 5 days ago and until then Gilmour to me was my favourite guitarist.
An interesting detail. In the British social care system children like this are automatically named Jenny and James.
@@seanbeck1451 wow... thank you! I guess smart minds think alike!
Hit up GENESIS from Ren, it’s a banger that you will have on repeat ❤
Big kick to the nuts hey.
Great to have a fellow Aus boy to hear from.
Pretty Little Lady vid and acoustic! Why my Woman, any of the streamed Covid bedroom/rooftop private concerts from Pete elegy’s page ❤❤❤
I agree that might be time to do something more lighthearted from Ren like checking out his busking band (in Brighton) The Big Push...specifically I Shot the Sheriff/Road to Zion/HipHop. After that I suggest you check out the Money Game trilogy (not all in one reaction necessarily). For Money Game II do the lyric video, it has more content.
Beutyfull ❤ your reaction . You reacted same as me in al parts even amazing timing and so on . ❤this 100% 😊
Great!!! Subscribed. Greetings from Belgium
Subbed! Appreciated how engaged you were and the details you picked up on and discussed. Will go back to check your earlier videos.
This was, hands down, the best reaction I've seen to this trilogy... you got SOOOO many of the little details on your first listen, even the rewinding of time with the guitar, and then the un-rewind to return to the "present day" when the song started!... Fantastic!
Ren is indeed a genius, a fantastic performer, singer, actor, songwriter, composer, etc, etc he can do it all... here are some more things for you to sink in :) :
- the way he uses his words and sets the scene for example when he could've simply say that Screeched stabbed Jenny he did it in a much more poetic way (and continues to do it in other instances in the songs, like when the Police is coming for Screech "the shrill cry of justice like a Banshee in the night"), just the same when jenny froze he says it in a fantastic manner that sets a scene in your head...
The way he used the Guitar to knock on the door in Screech's tale, the frantic video going around him while he stood still to show the state of mind Screech was in, how he used the phone in the middle of the song with pauses and all to wait for the call to connect... how he said the police were coming instead of just saying "the police are coming" is truly amazing, and how he said that Screech was going against the police without saying just the obvious words... how he alternates between characters and narrator... how he uses the guitar to fire the shots and the cameraman getting shot and falling to the floor... an amazing storyteller.
- The way he tells that history repeats itself on Violet's tale, from being abused by her father to the cycle repeating with her boyfriend that ends up killing her... the way he knocks on the door and then shows how he picks her eyelids and opens them and he's right there face first on the camera, out of focus... how he again uses the guitar to simbolize the sounds of violence when Stevie hits Violet, like a crashing pilot!
- The way he rewinds time at the start of Violet's Tale when he says "We must rewind time for Violet's Tale" and then he makes the rewind time sound with the guitar and then starts Violet's story... then after Violet gets beaten up he uses the guitar again, this time to un-rewind time and gets us back to the start of the song when you heard the sounds of the hospital machines, now we know why those sounds were there and how everything happened... it's pure genius!!!
- Also, it's inevitable to draw parallels between Jenny and Violet and Screech and Stevie (his father) and the grandfather... despite not knowing any of their relatives, Jenny was just like her mother, Violet was silent, didn't fight back when she was abused and ended up being killed... Jenny when confronted by Screech completely froze, like a statue, wasn't able to move, to say anything, to defend herself, just like her mother...
Screech was violent and troubled and ended up a murderer just like his father..
All very tragic!!
- To tie it all up, the Tales from Jenny and Screech were recorded in 2019 and Violet's Tale (was recorded later) is, because of that, set in 2005 (two zero zero five), 14 years before, because in Jenny's tale we are told that Screech was 14 years old!
Cheers
Wow. Just wow... thank you so much 💓
What a wonderful reaction.
❤🤗❤
Ohhhh Children of the Moon! So fun!
Loved your reaction ♥️
She "Walked" the streets... 1000 times before! Not so innocent... not her fault! Like Screech... street wise from being in the foster system no doubt!
Patrick didnt answer the door cause he was busy... with Screechs girl! They called Patrick to the scene!
What a sad story! Unfortunately... all too common today!
Found it. Thanks mate.
hello dear!! our man ren is pretty sweet, huh?? i enjoyed your reaction, son!!! kathleen 🙃
Oh helll!! More please!!😮😂❤ u have so much fun ahead. Do Chinchilla as well. She is his female equivalent 😮😮❤❤
Do you have a suggested link I can check out
Do Chalk Outlines to introduce yourself to Ren and Chinchilla, then take a peek at Chinchilla, “Fingers”
Loved your insights. Great reaction. 💛💛💛
Fantastic reaction!! Congrats on your Celtics!
Its his mates flat ... ren is genius
Excellent reaction, I've seen many reactions to this and you found some unique features. To coin a phrase, my only disappointment was you didn't say " who's Violet?".😂
I enjoyed your reaction to this; thank you & I'm subbed for more Ren.
Welcome back 😁
Great reaction mate!
Ya Must do him with his band The Big Push... doing I Shot the Sheriff/Road to Zion/Hip Hop (that version!), Englishman in New York, Bongo Bong, Praise You, Back on 74/Message in a Bottle at least!!!
Jenny was not so innocent being a street walker makes her a member of the oldest profession in the world and the only way some poor girls think they can make money in this type of situation is to sell themselves. Just as James had very little choice but to take a life of crime, the inadequacy's of our social and welfare systems are shown in the raw and most honest way once the trilogy is complete and the cycle of life ends. Back to the production of the vid Ren played a mini concert for the residents of this area as a thank you for being able to make the clip can't remember where to find it either Ren main page or Ren Makes Music. New sub and a huge like, need a little help forcing the J's to at least just listen to Ren more need to flood the J's Email with requests.
your cat looked like just a darker part of the bed I got a real shock when it seemed to appear out of nowhere,
😆 he always sleeps on his little tower during the vids and often makes a special appearance with a stretch or if I react abruptly to something he'll glance over like "dad, I'm trynna sleep here"
Ren is ewrythng 🪄🎼✨💯 💙🇫🇮
yep, the james/screech thing also bothered me, but I get REN of course think about it and choose screech for ease of understanding, even with screech a lot of people do not get the twist, so with james, it would be even worst
I think if he went with a boy called James it would go over most peoples head. A lot of reactors dont get it that Screech killed his sister until they read the comments. I'd say he put a lot of thought into this and decided to go with Screech.
This is theater.
Whoah!
💗🦇💗🦇💗🦇💗🦇💗
Filmed in Brighton
Too many wouldve forgotten that Screech's name was James. Everyone would've been saying "Who TF is James?" lol
Sorry second comment here. Your reaction was fucking awesome mate.
