This is on repeat everytime when I'm in autistic meltdown. It's so comforting when I'm sitting somewhere in the dark under a table crying, flapping and rocking, trying to keep myself from banging my head against a wall, not able to communicate my needs. It will pass. It's alright.
@ thank you so much. I am more and more learning to accept this part of me and music like this helps a great deal. For me luckily those dark moments are just temporary and after two to three days of recovery I am back again to beeing a mostly functional adult ☺. So it goes and I'm gonna take this with both hands. 🤗 (little happy stim). Hope you are well and hugs to you too. 💜💜
How is it that Ren is the perfect combination of providing hope, restoring faith in humanity, all while ready to provide a beat down when needed. How is he real? If he intended to rule the entire world, I don't doubt for a minute that he could - and I would support it. Of course, you'd need to be part of his cabinet/advisors so that the world always has a smile on our faces!
While he was in treatment in Calgary for a year and a half or whatever, Canadian Renegades joked he should run for Prime Minister. Now that Trudeau is actually resigning & we're staring down the barrel of a potential Trump Mini-Me winning the election, I've thought about that wistfully more than a few times. (I know just because he's an incredible artist/social commentary thinker it doesn't mean he'd be any good at the job even if he wanted it lol, but just... remembering happier days, sigh).
This is such a special song.. i shared this with my friend after she received her cancer diagnosis. She had never heard of Ren but she absolutely loved it, she said that it really helped her cope with the bad days. Thank you for doing that one.. like Dominoes by Ren, this one needs to be heard xx
I truly believe its impossible to have a favorite Ren song.. I seen many people say this is my new favorite (any Ren tune) only to say the same the next song they hear by Ren... he is just that awesome ..every tune is priceless.. this is my favorite for now , thank you Hector.. Great reaction!
Omg! You absolutely nailed it with your little rant at the end! Bless you!! I'm an introvert and definitely not a talker. (especially in larger group settings) Thank you for speaking up for those of us like me. And of course, Ren is his phenomenal, talented self. This was a new one for me, so thank you for sharing!
There's a universal message in this song that soooo many would do well by. And the criminal part is that it's a radio friendly tune yet received zero airplay because it was initially self-released by Ren.
@@vivienneclarke2421 You and me both! Since Mark is such a huge Stan I've been trying to convince him. I think that Kasey's Lose Yourself is going to be one of those tracks that leaves him speechless. Much love to YOU too! Have a great day!
@@BrainBushido me too, we know it will blow his mind into a million pieces. It’s a rebirth not a cover for me. Phenomenal arrangement & performance from the entire band & Kasey embodies the soul of Em’s masterpiece - she’s lived every breath of that story.
It's my favourite song of all, because it helped me through the darkest days, alone. A couple of years later,my life is full of love,positivity,and happiness❤ It is a mental health song and so much more for me,Ren literally saved my life through his music and add to that the beautiful community and wonderful reaction stars like you,I'm thankful to still be here,I'm thankful for the amazing people that all unknowingly helped me ❤ much love to you reading this and remember.... Its Alright 🥰
Love ya, Mark. I watched a video from The Thought Spot yesterday or maybe the day before, and she showed a graphic of suggestions of what to do when you're feeling x difficult emotion and you're stuck. She's addressing the autistic community with her content, but lots of tools & accommodations can help LOTS of people, autistic or not. Singing was the suggestion for anger, and seeing that made me cry (I mean, I react with tears to lots of stuff). Accidentally singing songs like this one while I'm in an anger meltdown *has* helped me through them, but I've never thought to purposefully reach for it as a tool, somehow. Gonna start giving it a try going forward. When I'm so stuck I can't even sing, just "thinking" the song in my head or "think-singing" along to it as it plays, I think goes a long way towards providing the same effect. I do that with "Power" a lot.
So happy you did this one..the perfect pick me up song..I really needed to hear it tonight, so thank you. You are an absolute superstar. Much love 🤩🫶🏻🇬🇧
“Thinking face” - omg yes, thank you for acknowledging that this is what some people are doing and that people need to just let people be 😭 Imma play this track and think of your face and think about the amazing educators you and Ren are and that combined with Chinchilla’s empowerment and the fact that she is queen everything is one with the world 🥹🫶
Love this one from Ren. The music video to this one is a great one too! ❤ So uplifting! Glad you had a great break over the holidays! It’s always fun to see your face! Thanks for the smiles, as always! 🩵
I DO listen to this, and the Big Push version (which is completely different but equally fire, of course) when I have to endure socialization, especially with family. Great Minds...
This is a go to for me when I need support. My other go to is Patience - if you haven't heard that one, do give it a listen. It's beautiful and so bolstering. The Big Push has an "It's Alright" that is different, but also great.
There's also a cover by an Atlanta producer called MKVH. It's wonderful because he mostly just filled out the song with some additional instrumentation and preserved the feel.
One of my favourite tracks so simple yet so powerful💜💜 as everyone has said the video is absolutely beautiful 💜💜 Oh and i need that t-shirt and Who the F××× is Violet one 😂
My husband now knows... oooohhhh thinkin face.... the talking he still says get to the POINT. Haha can't I say I went on a diverse and it was INTERESTING 😂
If you ever get to 1990's off that album (which I recommend!), make sure you watch the official lyric video. I know you don't like lyric videos but this one is great.
I was watching this video while getting ready for work…. Made it to work…. And realized I only had on 1 sock… so I’m halfway through my shift (I’m a nurse aid at a hospital) and I think I have a blister on my foot… no one wanted to know that…. Just wanted to say it was worth it 😂
This owl loves to listen while you speak 😊 Of topic, As a typical owl, I would like to hear your education part 2 btw. Do you still like to do that or is the hyena bored with it already?
Lol I teach for a living and plan to do some education vids again for 2025. Giving my take on some deeper topics such as - Mental Health - Gender Diversity - Stress And loads more!
Check out Ozzy Osbourne Diary of a Madman the song from the album of the same tittle....It has a classical thing like this song going on. It's so cool! I think you'll love it!
ua-cam.com/video/hCsQDY8A6og/v-deo.htmlsi=M2up3c2OJNnEImLC Just watch this version of its alright from Ren . It's a nice one. You see a very young Ren and friends
Mark, you should look for the video for this - it's Ren & friends & passersby doing chalk art. It's lovely
Spoiler 😘❤
Came here to tell Mark the same. The video of Ren and friends spreading love and kindness to this song gets me every time
I concur... it's one to share far and wide... one of those rare occasions where the world isn't being fked over... it's just love ❤️
For sure !!
The music video for this one makes me cry happy tears ❤❤❤

REN Also has a beautiful video to go with this beautiful song. And The Big Push also has song called “It’s Alright “ different song but I love it!❤

U 💯 right Mark. Beautiful song! But what a beautiful reaction and what a message on the end💪❤️🔥❤️🔥🦄
This song and Seven Sins is the first 2 I start with when I’m driving. The video is awesome too. Thanks Mark ❤
I truly believe its impossible to have a favorite Ren song.. I seen many people say this is my new favorite (any Ren tune) only to say the same the next song they hear by Ren... he is just that awesome ..every tune is priceless.. this is my favorite for now , thank you Hector.. Great reaction!

What a beautiful track!
Ren never disappoints, neither does Hector.
Thank you Mark for a great reaction!
🧠🔥❤️
You're very welcome!
This is one of my favorite songs from Ren… I play this a lot - hits me perfectly when I’m feeling stressed and unhappy❤❤❤❤❤
Renegades, help me out here... is this the one where he's doing the chalk street art?
Yes...this is the one with the chalk street art.
I was thinking the same thing, drawing hearts on the sidewalks with his friends is the vision I'm picturing!!
@@Janiene-k5l yes, that's the one.
@@AnneMarie333 Thank you!
Yep💕👍🦇
One of my favourite Ren tracks. You described it perfectly...." beautiful "❤
There's a universal message in this song that soooo many would do well by. And the criminal part is that it's a radio friendly tune yet received zero airplay because it was initially self-released by Ren.
Just beautiful! he has a version with a video clip and he is sooo young.
Thank you for stating it plainly...thinkers think, speakers speak and everything is alright. Love your reactions! 😍
Another lovely Hector reaction, I'm a "think to speak" i just wish everybody understood like you do ❤
Totally agree that the earlier stuff does seem. More emotional crutch it's alright the whole freckled angels album is very thought provoking
☺️ I love this album!
I needed to hear your understanding and your laugh today, thank you for all you do! Beautiful song Ren
Your commentary awesome, like the song ❤😂thanks brain squeeze
Love this song. And you Brainsqueeze ❤
Oh, yes, as your video title says, his music 🎶 sure does cure the mental health, thanks for sharing your reaction, it’s a like and thumbs up.😄👍#ren
This song and Heretic were my most played songs of 2024. 💛💛💛
Letsssss go!
Kasey Chambers cover of Lose Yourself live at the Civic Theatre is mental too!
Just sayin'. 🤷🏼♂️
I've loved Kasey Chambers for many many years now....when I first heard that cover it just about blew my mind~!!
@@vivienneclarke2421
You and me both!
Since Mark is such a huge Stan I've been trying to convince him. I think that Kasey's Lose Yourself is going to be one of those tracks that leaves him speechless.
Much love to YOU too!
Have a great day!
@@BrainBushidooh it 100% will, so hoping he looks it up. I was privileged to see her perform it live and 🤯🤯🤯🤯🤯🥹🥹❤️❤️❤️ Best cover ever imho.
@JoRiceRenegade4Eva
How cool. I bet that is an amazing show!
I really hope Hector doesn't overlook it because it's "just" a cover.
@@BrainBushido me too, we know it will blow his mind into a million pieces. It’s a rebirth not a cover for me. Phenomenal arrangement & performance from the entire band & Kasey embodies the soul of Em’s masterpiece - she’s lived every breath of that story.
It's such a beautiful song... its impossible not to feel chipper by the time it finishes playing.
This song is on repeat when my 2 year old granddaughter comes over. And yes, when feeling down, this is the song! As well as many other Ren songs 😊
You help my brain with your tales - much love
It’s a very calming song another great reaction Hector
This is like, so smooth.
Gorgeous song beautifully reacted too. ❤🏴🇬🇧
Thank you Mark, just home from an extremely stressful few days, where I had no access to my usual routines and past times, and I really needed this🫶🏻
It's my favourite song of all, because it helped me through the darkest days, alone.

Ohhh Buddy, this is gonna be a good one. This song will get you all charged up and sad. Then feel weird because you’re all charged up!🤣😂🤣
There's a beautiful music video as well as a beautiful song!
Love this! So chill. Another one thaaat a lot dont react to is Patience. Young Ren and its such an emotional/empowering song.
So happy you did this one..the perfect pick me up song..I really needed to hear it tonight, so thank you. You are an absolute superstar. Much love 🤩🫶🏻🇬🇧
Such a hidden gem. ❤
Genuinely thought you said Gold, Frankincense, and Merch for a second. 😂
Hahahahah Jesus Merch is the best, so soft
YEah, the vid really makes this special song super upliftng.
Best way to spend my 10 min after getting off work before preparing dinner!
Damn I teared up watching this.💕👍🦇
Time for us to enter Mark’s bouncy house!!! Let’s Goooooooo 👏👏👏
Haha Bouncy house!
you just earned top slot in my favorite reactor list. f'n love ya
Yessss!!!!!! Best day eveeeeeeerrrrrrr
“Thinking face” - omg yes, thank you for acknowledging that this is what some people are doing and that people need to just let people be 😭 Imma play this track and think of your face and think about the amazing educators you and Ren are and that combined with Chinchilla’s empowerment and the fact that she is queen everything is one with the world 🥹🫶

Then legend returns 🙌🙌🙌❤️
The video is packed full of all the feels 🥰
I DO listen to this, and the Big Push version (which is completely different but equally fire, of course) when I have to endure socialization, especially with family. Great Minds...
Yes me too, TBP version follows this one on my Ren & friends playlist ❤
This is a go to for me when I need support. My other go to is Patience - if you haven't heard that one, do give it a listen. It's beautiful and so bolstering. The Big Push has an "It's Alright" that is different, but also great.
Oh loved the reaction, but love it with the video, it's so heart-warming, well maybe another time ❤
There's also a cover by an Atlanta producer called MKVH. It's wonderful because he mostly just filled out the song with some additional instrumentation and preserved the feel.
The full video is moving. I love your perspective btw.
❤ Thank you ❤ I absolutely love you and your reactions ❤ This is an incredible song that is so full of love and hope ❤ Much Love ❤
Thank you! ☮️💯😈💞😎😂
Love this track…..thanks Hector 🪩🍪💜
Ooh this is one of my favourite songs ❤
Thank you Hector 😊❤
I freaking love you!!!
Riiiight back atcha!
Love the song but I also love the other video where they draw on the floor ❤
Oh yes 🙏💪❤️🔥
Great song and brilliant reaction. Fire is still my favorite off this album.
Can you please make us a ringtone of whatever the hell you want to do!!! ❤😊
My fave off this album is Freckled Angels but after that is the leading track which I feel is quite unique - Make my way, give it a go
Thanks Hector ❤❤❤❤
One of my favourite tracks so simple yet so powerful💜💜 as everyone has said the video is absolutely beautiful 💜💜
Oh and i need that t-shirt and Who the F××× is Violet one 😂
It's beautiful, and so are you. Thank you for this. Have you done "Patience" with Ren and Bear McCreary? It's also gorgeous like this one. ❤
I think so...it rings a bell!
Squizzed, is perfect
Looking at your playlist of Ren and realise you have not done ‘Losing it’. It’s totally bonkers and fun.
My husband now knows... oooohhhh thinkin face.... the talking he still says get to the POINT. Haha can't I say I went on a diverse and it was INTERESTING 😂
Have you seen the actual video of this one???
I didn't know this song even existed until yesterday lol
@brainsqueezereactions the video is beautiful!
If you ever get to 1990's off that album (which I recommend!), make sure you watch the official lyric video. I know you don't like lyric videos but this one is great.
I love this song. So many different facets to Ren.
Can I suggest "Depression" ... it's an amazing piece of art work. It's poetry and music.
You're Insane Mark, you are a Flickin Nuttar.
I was watching this video while getting ready for work…. Made it to work…. And realized I only had on 1 sock… so I’m halfway through my shift (I’m a nurse aid at a hospital) and I think I have a blister on my foot… no one wanted to know that…. Just wanted to say it was worth it 😂

Giving my take on some deeper topics such as
- Mental Health
- Gender Diversity

And loads more!
Do living room poetry. It makes you smile so much.
YES HECTOR 🤟🤟💌💌🥰🥰
100% this is on that ‘pick me up’ play list ❤️

No there another "it's alright" were they draw heart in the street.
ua-cam.com/video/hCsQDY8A6og/v-deo.htmlsi=M2up3c2OJNnEImLC Just watch this version of its alright from Ren . It's a nice one. You see a very young Ren and friends
Pretty much all of Freckled Angels squeezes my heart and hits me harder than Sickboi - I love them all but yeah the resonance is just different.
Do you do children's parties 🎉🎉🎉 ??😅😅
