Ren calls Daisy (the artist known as Chinchilla) his musical sister. She is breaking through in the UK, while Sam Tompkins just opened for Bieber. A rising tide certainly raises all ships.
Please do Chinchilla's Fingers Live..it will blow you away! Ren and Chinchilla call each other musical siblings. They were both signed to the same label, but have since both become fully independent artists Before you ask, there's no romantic connection! 😂
I totally agree, but there is something about the melody of this one, the emotional connection, the message.. that just hit me. I think of my favorites this is top 3 favorite. I absolutely love this song!! And I'm not gonna lie, I sing it too😅 horribly compared to Ren and Chinchilla but I can't help it. My neighbors are probably like "WTF!?! Great song but he really needs to shut tf up"😂
After coming across ren a started downloading all his work straight away, and even tho I had his album both his demo series and like 20 songs in a file "at time" named ren so everytime a new songs come out had just add it to the ren file, "think thes about 38 songs init nar" all dope, but after having mi 1st listen to everything, all a wanted to listin to was his demo vol 2, only 8 songs, but 8 classics, a must've listened to it for weeks on repeat everyday, and in ren file thes everything from hi ren, jenny n scretch "of course" to blind eyes with Sam and what went wrong 1&2, all mi favourites he did with the big push, I shot the sheriff/hip hop mix the did thats amazing, facking amazing, bongo bong another amazing cover the did, children of the moon, all one's on UA-cam how to be me, all of them man, a love that have got this ren file with all songs on a can find, most of them got videos aswel cos the from UA-cam, a can just let it play all 38 songs and not after skip 1 song 😁
the other track they did is called "How to be me" and it's just as good, the emotion they can bring out when they're with each other is incredible and I'm sure they will make more duets in the future.
u quickly rising to my t5 reactors no lie! the insight u bring to how hard these videos we all love are to make is not only giving me more appreciation for the artist but the production team as well. thank you Joe with 2 e's no y. 😁
@@joeesparks7 I full heartedly agree. Yes, the insight from your world of expertise is refreshing and I love it. But the passion you are NOT trying to hide is what really gives you the right to skip the line to the top. Keep showing what you feel and do it your way. (he says just before giving a suggestion about the way you could also approach it...) For sure shoot the first reaction live. The authenticity makes it top notch!!! But you could do a recap or conclusion after you watched it a couple of times more.
Fun Chinchilla suggestion: her latest song is “Little Girl Gone” which is a very entertaining song & video. There are plenty of others, but since it’s her first independent release, I try to recommend it. 💜
They consider themselves musical siblings & plan to do more in the future. Also, they have another original song/video Ren x Chinchilla “How To Be Me” (live) that’s in a similar vein that I know you’ll like. It was filmed on a bridge, to give a nod to his friend Joe who passed away. It’s not “the” bridge like some say in the comments, just a bridge. There are a couple busking videos with them the very first time Chinchilla ever busked. Ren dragged her out to do it. She’s opened for Sting on a huge stage no problem, but she was terrified to busk! She said now she can’t wait to do it again. 😊 They do an incredible duet of Marvin Gaye’s “Sexual Healing” (you’ll never again hear it as a solo again) along with one or two more including a Drake/Beyoncé mix. Chinchilla “Fingers” (live for Hunger TV) is a good one because it’s a good song and done artistically.
YES! "Little Girl Gone" is a must! Also, "How to be Me" sung on the bridge from which Ren's friend lept from this life...tragedy. And, they busk to "Sexual Healing"
@@kimberlymiller3262I'm not sure where this idea about it being performed on "that" bridge originally came from, but it is not true. The Menai Bridge is located in Wales and it does not look at all like the location in the video. I'm quite sure that it is not even shot at a bridge, but rather on a rooftop or balcony or something like that. The performance is magnificent though - it does not need that extra myth for that - and it is dedicated to Ren's friend Joe Hughes who did jump from the Menai Bridge in Wales in December 2010.

Love how much you understand and FEEL Ren's music ❤ it's so exciting to see someone who appreciates it experience a new song for the first time , your channel is amazing Joee
She's a friend of Ren's they have performed together and done many shows together. However they aren't together in a relationship. Would you possibly consider doing a spotlight 3 song episode on Ren? I have 3 incredible songs that I know will give you life in different ways . First is Rens band The Big Push , the song is called Blind Eyed , the next is just Ren and it's called Patience and the last is a well known fun song called Power by Ren ♡♡♡♡ absolutely love your content .
They are friends. Ren said that she is the female version of him. Her own work has real spunk. It would be so interesting to watch you review her videos because they are very creative.
You know that thrill when you see the kids coming down and seeing all the presents under the Christmas 🎄 and you get caught up in their wonderment & excitement & living it through them? That's what you bring to the table as a Reactor. I love it Especially seeing your eargasms to my all time favourite from Ren! Also love your Producer's eye for detail., eg when you pointed out how they lowerr their singing so they can then match up perfectly for the rise. Someone else has said you're fast becoming their top 5 Reactor and for me, you've already romped up to my top 3 🏆 since you loved this, You Have to do How to be Me (Live) - another of their collabs where she "understands the assignment"... its haunting and beautiful. Chincilla is a powerhouse and unique- check out her "Fingers (Live in Hungary) and her latest release Little Girl Gone which rapidly became a top 10 anthem for those who've had enough of being abused
Omg Vanessa🙏🏽😔 those were such amazing words. When I read this, I was like "wow, those are words articulating my feelings"👌🏽💯 And thank u for ur suggestions
There’s a video of 3 singer/vocal coaches/reactors who did a collab for this song & watching them be stunned is always a good time. 😺💜 ETA: The Charismatic Voice, Will Ramos & Chris Liepe (who also scored an interview with Chinchilla!)
@@belinda35 The Charismatic Voice's channel, it's her with Chris Liepe (who did an interview with Chinchilla) and someone else I'm not too familiar with who does screaming vocals
@@jessietucker9342 he did say in an interview or on Twitch that it wasn’t the same bridge. He didn’t think he could do that. Just info that made me feel better about it because I couldn’t imagine him trying to emotionally get through that. He said he wouldn’t have been able to.
I love how you feel it with your whole body! I first saw that on Black P's channel with your Hi Ren reaction and it brought me to continue with you on your channel. The music and artistry quite literally flows through you and I am here for it!
I watched you on Pegasus sick boi reaction and felt I had to come and give you a sub. The genuine reaction and passion shown watching you be inspired by what you were watching was unreal and deserves to be acknowledged. Looking forward to seeing the results from it all.
How To Be Me by these two *Live Version* is mind bogglingly good. It's a must see. They also have a number of busking sessions together on UA-cam. Great reaction!!
The line is I'm scared of being ok, cos all things change. Nice reaction again Joe. Chinchilla and Ren had the same manager for a while. They are both independent now and like Ren, Chinchilla produces her own stuff. Other comments make excellent suggestions for further tracks
Ren just makes you truly feel everything! He’s breathed new life into me since I found him on January 3! Music has been so stale for the last like 20 years until now with Ren and all of his incredibly talented fellow friends/artists! It’s I’m scared of being ok cause all things change, all things change - a punch in the gut of truth. As someone mentioned - Ren has called her his musical sister. She is seriously great in her own right - can’t wait for you to check out more from her.
Ren considers her his musical sister. They are amazing together. Another one they did together is "How to be me" live, which is really good. Chinchilla has some great stuff on her own as well.
You’re clearly a deep feeler, a vibe reader, an Empath like me. My advice for THE song featuring those 2 is ‘How To Be Me’ the live version. Not only is it a profound message, but the empathetic connection between them is beautiful and the notes + delivery of the vocals set the tone within 10 seconds. I’ve been feeling my way through music my whole life and can truly say it is one of the best I’ve ever heard!
Thank u! I am a feeler and vibe reader...it's really why most times,unless it's straight raping bars, when I hear a song I don't even hear the words 🤷🏾 it's the repetitive listens that make them sink in....for me of course. I love watching ppl who react and can catch"song" lyrics on the first listen. Thanks for ur comments...it ment a lot!
Chinchilla is another artist. Ren reached out to her after seeing her live in concert. She had never Busked before meeting and hanging out with Ren. She has her own songs and videos out as well. Her latest "Little Girl Gone" hit #1 on the Apple Music Chart in April despite that she dropped her label and went independent because they told her it would not do well.
There's no sound effects, it's all live. He chose this spot for the acoustics and slammed the chair open to break the silence to get us to focus. He puts thought into every last detail. So good! You're reactions are so good too! 💗 I've been caught by so many other motorists belting this song out, windows all the way down, no f's given 🤣🤣🤣
The next one is How to be me- live and Ren and Chinchilla busking to sexual healing 🔥🔥 this was her first and only busking time and loved it! When you start her catalog…… It must be Fingers-live, then Little girl gone video ( new. Music) then I love Lockdown get down , then Cold- live she h has recently departed and went independent also does her own production!!! She has a great interview on Chris Liepes channel 💯
Amazing reaction as always! Like everyone else I highly suggest "Fingers Live" and "Elements" by Chinchilla and her other duet with Ren - "How to be Me (Live)". They're so incredible together and apart
The way she moves in Elements is so fun and when I am jamming that song in my car, I find myself moving the same way, although I know I don't look nearly as cool 😂
Joe-Joe-Joe. I love that you use your senses so much in your reactions. You really listen with your feelings, while we get your technical comments. Thanks. I love this song - but one that tops it. How to be me - Live. Also with Ren and Chincilla
The line towards the end is actually "I'm scared of being ok cos all things change" and it's one of the most relatable lines for me in the song along with the gallows one. Sometimes when you struggle with things like depression it almost becomes comfortable and you don't want to live in the moment because things change and it can feel worse once you've allowed yourself to feel some positivity.
@JoeESparks, you have fast become one of my favourite reactors. I saw you first on BP's channel reacting to Hi Ren etc. Your passion and appreciation for not just good music but the production of the videos adds an extra element to your reactions. You wear your heart on your sleeve too which shows with the visible emotions on your face and what you do with your hands (putting them in the air or to your chest etc) is beautiful to see. Can't wait to see more. You're a joy to watch.
I am super late to this. So, I'm guessing that most of your questions have been answered. There is SO much about this that is wonderful. The set up, his lyrics, the subtle guitar work and then there is their voices. But, what always stands out for me. Is the connection that they share. They are completely LOCKED on to each other. Sharing their hearts and souls by being in that very moment. I don't think either one of them looked directly at the camera once. Never before has something touched me so much without eye contact. As for your reaction. Thank you so very much. There is nothing better than GENUINE appreciation. Your excitement and wonderment is a JOY to see. This is gonna be a fun ride. I am SOOO here for it.
Ren talks about this during the BP interview. He met her through the label and did a couple songs. He said that she is the female version of him and they connect on teh same wavelength.
Great Reaction! Ren and his friends are all super talented artist. Chinchilla, Sam Tompkins, Romain, I recommend checking them out at some point. Another great Ren x Chinchilla song is How to be me-live version.
MikeF, u caught that😂❤ yeah, I've been fed up with music for years...nothing inspiring. And it's like now, with all yall help...I'm get pure musical delight and fulfillment ❤ thanks MikeF👊🏽💯
Ren always surrounds himself with talented people. I think he is a great collaborator because he creates space for others to shine. He and Chinchilla perform another song Ren wrote How To Be Me- the live version is wonderful- the official lyric video has cello ( Ren plays cello) the video of cartoon lyrics.
What I love about your reactions is that how you have this very emotional attachment to artistry You don't just see the art in front of you but you feel it deep within your core, that passion just radiates from you and it is a beautiful thing to behold
Your director's viewpoint is very refreshing but the thing I find so captivating about your reaction here (first reaction I've seen and subbed, so, hopefully to be seen again) is the raw emotion you put in front of the "explanation" or the "breakdown" more than anything being so unapologetic about your actual response like this is just wonderful to see. Whether that be speechless, tears, applause...love it all. 😉💜🖤
Ren isn't,t a lane he is a highway of human connection history stories reflection and philosophy ...I could like rabbit hole like crazy and have for days yr reaction was beautiful thanks
Oh Joe you know you make me smile. There is a clip of Ren and Chinchilla doing a cover of Marvin Gay's Sexual Healing. This is a busking Session. Chinchilla has played for some large crowds, but never before in the street . She trusted Ren , because she knew he is a Pro at it , and because she and he have both said that they have the same musical DNA .
Chinchilla and Ren redo Marvin Gaye’s “sexual healing” that’s really good, chinchilla has some good single too. Besides “little girl gone”, “ fingers” (live) and “elements” are prob some of my favs!!!! ❤
This was another one-take, Live Recording. The reverb in that hallway is both killer and completely natural (much as the hall and stairwell from Violet's Tale). Right before he picks up the chair, Ren is setting the amp and putting on his mic. Totally agree that you should consider the Live version of Fingers by Chinchilla, as well as Little Girl Lost. She's a friend of Ren's. They also did How To Be Me live together. You totally need to interview Sam!
Chinchilla is amazing people be sleeping on her ,little girl gone and fingers live are stunning and she does it all herself too,love your reactions love from the UK
Chinchilla's Fingers (live), Elements, and Little Girl Gone are my favorites of hers. Also, Ren and Chinchilla have another song together called How To Be Me. Check em out!
I think they both had the same management a few years ago. Ren refers to Chinchilla as his musical sibling. Chincilla did her first street performance with Ren's assistance and killed it!
Loved your reaction to this. It is truly amazing isn't it? It's crazy the circle of talented people that Ren has surrounding him. You would probably really like The Big Push guitarist Romain Axisa's work as well. He has a new song 'Turn the Lights Down' that has a great video inspired by Bram Stoker's Dracula - and the guitar solo at the end is scorching hot. There's also 'Goodbye Good Days' that showcases his amazing voice and also has a phenomenal guitar solo - the videography on that one is really cool as well. I'd sub, but I already did :)
The chemistry between Ren and Chinchilla is amazing. You don't usually see this amount of chemistry for collaborations/duets outside of actual band mates that have been working together for years. They have one more duet together that you need to checkout called "How to be Me" and they have the same energy and chemistry in it as they do with this one
Yep every single person Ren hangs with singing and music wise is in his lane of creativity. I swear its a new British Wave...brimming up to take over the world. He has also said Chinchilla is him in female form...they compliment each other so well.
They have at least 2 more tracs together. I think you enjoy them as well. That high note she hits in this one just gave me the chills at how beautiful it was.
Chinchilla is amazing and compliments his voice perfectly ❤ Ren himself is just pure magic. There are and have been a lot of good performers in the music industry but only a very few that are absolutely born to sing. He is an amazing and rare talent
I'm so thrilled to see you react to this one. Live. One take. Just them. I love how every sound is so pronounced. Since it was live, i don't believe there was any post foley. Ren is so talented atconveying emotion. I can't help but feel his sadness, his dim hopefulbess, his facetiousness, his resignation. Chinchilla is the perfect completion to this duet. They also did How to Be Me together. (Nothing wrong with "b&$ch" reaction. Mine the first time was "f&$k off." LOL!) "I'm scared of being okay cuz all things change." I got a hint of Adele at the end there. Chinchilla indeed has her own catalog. The more i listened to this, the more I relate. Talking about not being okay. Having a pill to fix it, but that just numbs us (walk around in floating chalk lines, then erase ourselves in these chalk outlines.) to the point we are not ourselves anymore. Kill the pain or kill our personalities?
So you HAVE TO react to Chinchilla's song "Fingers", live version! She is just incredible. A very powerful live solo performance with just a piano and her amazing voice. Also, her first independent release " Little Girl Gone" is an empowering anthem for anyone who has been used and abused and has found their strength. Love your reactions! You wear your emotions on your sleeve and are so animated. You bring great production insight.
This simply just stunning and in my top 3 of all time top duets, closely followed by them doing the highly emotional " How to be Me " and then " One Love/Drunk in Love " busking in Brighton UK, just amazing. Love your reaction as well.
I love your love for Ren (and the people he works with)! So happy to see you bring your excitement and appreciation for every little detail down the rabbit hole to join the rest of us ❤ BTW I think you would love the video for Crutch feat. Bibi. Most of it is very simple but so so effective.
Great reaction. "I'm scared of being okay 'cause all things change" resonates with me. It sucks being depressed, but after awhile you rely on stability so the idea of change - even if it's a good change - produces a lot of anxiety. Love Ren's collaborations; I'm really loving him with Eden Nash (see "Ocean" and "Humble").
Loving your reaction style Joe... relaxed, chilled, humorous and insightful. Came over to you from black p a few weeks back. Good stuff my man. Keep it up and I'm in for more 👌
@@joeesparks7 Looking forward to seeing more of your reactions in future Joe, and thanks for the direct reply. I see your subscriptions are taking off so must be difficult keeping up with all the well wishers. Appreciate it mate 🙌🙌
Ren and Chinchilla were both on the same record label management team. They then left and became independent artist. So they are big and not just starting out.
Great reaction! "How To Be Me" live version with Ren and Chinchilla should be on your list to react to. Make sure it's the live version and not the lyric video to listen to first. I really enjoy watching your emotions as you watch & listen. You have a unique perspective and I learn from your reactions. Thanks.
Ren described Chinchilla as his sister from another mister. Also my feelings exactly- Ren draw a to himself all sorts of talented folks. It made me wonder if Brighton is a magical place where talented people gather to bring joy to the world. Your enthusiasm brings me joy. And I’m learning so much.
Love seeing the joy that music brings to another human being. Amazing reaction! Can’t wait for “I forgot how to be me”- has to be one of your next reactions! Much love
Ren and Chinchilla have worked together on a couple of songs--and also busk together. I think you'd really enjoy doing both versions of Chinchilla's fingers. The live one is the better performance, but the music video is a lot of fun.
I love this song. I especially love when they do the a capella part. Their musicality is just so yin yang. Basically this is about depression, psych issues and psych meds. Sertraline and serotonin (first lines Chinchilla speaks) are psych meds. Sertraline is given for depression, PTSD, OCD and severe anxiety. Serotonin something we have naturally in our brain it helps control depression and they give it to you for severe, persistent depression. (I'm a retired nurse) So walking around in chalk outlines is pretty much like being dead inside. Chalk outlines are usually used to Trace dead bodies in crime scenes. They do have other videos together and they also did some busking videos together. Chinchilla also has her own music which has blown up since this video. I love your reactions. New sub Black Pegasus sent me from FUQ boys where I've seen a couple of your reactions. Can't wait for the next one. ✌❤😎
Awesome reaction as always. I believe from what I have heard from other reactors is that chinchilla is a friend of Ren's with an outstanding voice. When she hit the highest range of singing "oh my my" the tears started flowing out of joy and knowing this is what excellence and capturing vocal talent is as well as the mood of the song. The live version is also stunning when they are singing it on the same bridge that his friend jumped from. Joe Hughs lives through Ren over and over piece by peace. Keep dancing in the sunshine peace out!
Love the reaction! Love to find someone who appreciates Ren (and Chinchilla) like I do! Line is “Cause all things change”. Chinchilla is his music sibling, she is absolute 🔥. Do “How to be me” next😊
I love how emotional you get, I can see my own reactions to beautiful music in your eyes. Like others have said Ren c chinchilla “how to be me” live is an amazing performance as well as chinchilla fingers live. You have only just begun the Ren and friends adventure time. It’s so damn refreshing to come across talent of this level, truly a once in a lifetime talent.
Joe, your passion in your recats of Rens tracks is as infectious as Rens music itself! I love your knowledge and how you apply it to the vids you watch! Im new to Ren, yourself and Black Pegasus (less than a week) and can't stop watching!
Chinchilla is a great singer. Shes ren's friend, and she has an absurdly good video (among many others) to react thats called "fingers" the live version. You should definitelly react to that!
The fact that with all his musical talent he also produces everything, directs the videos, does live one takes and somehow also has Sam as a best friend who just happens to be a great cinematographer blows my mind. And I haven’t even mentioned his equally talented friend Chinchilla! Great talent attracts great talent. Love your reactions Joe E! ❤
As a fellow videographer, youve quickly become my favorite reactor. Your insights into the video production, along with your enthusiasm for the music, makes your videos either here or with Black Pegasus must watch videos.
Ren calls Daisy (the artist known as Chinchilla) his musical sister. She is breaking through in the UK, while Sam Tompkins just opened for Bieber. A rising tide certainly raises all ships.
“In the gallows
I balance on my toes
So I can breathe”
Gets me teared up every time. 😭
Please do Chinchilla's Fingers Live..it will blow you away!
Ren and Chinchilla call each other musical siblings. They were both signed to the same label, but have since both become fully independent artists

I forth it
Please! Must be Fingers LIVE! Subbed. 😊
1, 2, 3, 4, fiiiiiiif
Little Girl Gone is a great song as well. The Fingers live on UA-cam is better than the album version.
Seems like all of RENs songs are my favorite lol.
There are a couple I can’t listen to, not because they aren’t good, but because I can’t be crying all the time. The rest are on heavy rotation. 💜
Right there with you! 💙💙💙

After coming across ren a started downloading all his work straight away, and even tho I had his album both his demo series and like 20 songs in a file "at time" named ren so everytime a new songs come out had just add it to the ren file, "think thes about 38 songs init nar" all dope, but after having mi 1st listen to everything, all a wanted to listin to was his demo vol 2, only 8 songs, but 8 classics, a must've listened to it for weeks on repeat everyday, and in ren file thes everything from hi ren, jenny n scretch "of course" to blind eyes with Sam and what went wrong 1&2, all mi favourites he did with the big push, I shot the sheriff/hip hop mix the did thats amazing, facking amazing, bongo bong another amazing cover the did, children of the moon, all one's on UA-cam how to be me, all of them man, a love that have got this ren file with all songs on a can find, most of them got videos aswel cos the from UA-cam, a can just let it play all 38 songs and not after skip 1 song 😁
"I'm scared of being ok, because all things change." That is one strong line in that song
That line gets me every time. Instant tears. I can relate completely
And one we all feel

This was a great comment. Sincere and uplifting. How awesome is that?
absolutely agree with you 100%, Joe you are another gem of a human, much love and peace
I love your analogy! I also like the term "eargasms'. I told Joe that the look on his face is orgasmic but I like eargasms better.

There’s a video of 3 singer/vocal coaches/reactors who did a collab for this song & watching them be stunned is always a good time. 😺💜 ETA: The Charismatic Voice, Will Ramos & Chris Liepe (who also scored an interview with Chinchilla!)
What reactors? I'd love to watch it.
ua-cam.com/video/n-_ATRGflxE/v-deo.html
@@belinda35 The Charismatic Voice's channel, it's her with Chris Liepe (who did an interview with Chinchilla) and someone else I'm not too familiar with who does screaming vocals
@@DenTweed I thought Chris was going to pop one off where he sat. 😂
@@DenTweed Thanks!
How to be Me, another Ren & Chinchilla duet is in my opinion mind blowingly good (Live version)
I believe that was filmed on the bridge that his friend jumped from. Makes it that much more powerful. "How to be Me".
@@jessietucker9342 Yeah, that's what I heard also. Makes you realise what a stunning performance it was.
@@jessietucker9342 he did say in an interview or on Twitch that it wasn’t the same bridge. He didn’t think he could do that. Just info that made me feel better about it because I couldn’t imagine him trying to emotionally get through that. He said he wouldn’t have been able to.
I love how you feel it with your whole body! I first saw that on Black P's channel with your Hi Ren reaction and it brought me to continue with you on your channel. The music and artistry quite literally flows through you and I am here for it!
I watched you on Pegasus sick boi reaction and felt I had to come and give you a sub. The genuine reaction and passion shown watching you be inspired by what you were watching was unreal and deserves to be acknowledged. Looking forward to seeing the results from it all.
Me too. Great reaction. New sub here too❤😊
Yeah same. Keep going mate, great reaction
How To Be Me by these two *Live Version* is mind bogglingly good. It's a must see. They also have a number of busking sessions together on UA-cam. Great reaction!!
The line is I'm scared of being ok, cos all things change. Nice reaction again Joe. Chinchilla and Ren had the same manager for a while. They are both independent now and like Ren, Chinchilla produces her own stuff. Other comments make excellent suggestions for further tracks
You will LOVE Chinchilla! Fingers Live is my favourite of hers. They are friends, he refers to her as his musical sister ❤ Love your reactions ❤
Ren just makes you truly feel everything! He’s breathed new life into me since I found him on January 3! Music has been so stale for the last like 20 years until now with Ren and all of his incredibly talented fellow friends/artists! It’s I’m scared of being ok cause all things change, all things change - a punch in the gut of truth. As someone mentioned - Ren has called her his musical sister. She is seriously great in her own right - can’t wait for you to check out more from her.
CHINCHILLA "FINGERS " LIVE VERSION. IT IS A MUST 🎉 TRUST ME
When she hits that note as she stands back up all my little hairs wanna give her a standing ovation
Aw man, Joe E your reactions are beautiful. You just understand the beauty of music. You feel it in the heart
Ren considers her his musical sister. They are amazing together. Another one they did together is "How to be me" live, which is really good. Chinchilla has some great stuff on her own as well.
You’re clearly a deep feeler, a vibe reader, an Empath like me.
My advice for THE song featuring those 2 is ‘How To Be Me’ the live version. Not only is it a profound message, but the empathetic connection between them is beautiful and the notes + delivery of the vocals set the tone within 10 seconds.
I’ve been feeling my way through music my whole life and can truly say it is one of the best I’ve ever heard!
Thank u! I am a feeler and vibe reader...it's really why most times,unless it's straight raping bars, when I hear a song I don't even hear the words 🤷🏾 it's the repetitive listens that make them sink in....for me of course. I love watching ppl who react and can catch"song" lyrics on the first listen. Thanks for ur comments...it ment a lot!
Chinchilla is another artist. Ren reached out to her after seeing her live in concert. She had never Busked before meeting and hanging out with Ren. She has her own songs and videos out as well. Her latest "Little Girl Gone" hit #1 on the Apple Music Chart in April despite that she dropped her label and went independent because they told her it would not do well.
She showed them. I think it’s amazeballs - girl power!
Thank God the music industry doesn’t have their hands on them 😊
You can't go wrong going down the rabbit holes of Ren and Chinchilla! They are both great artists!
There's no sound effects, it's all live. He chose this spot for the acoustics and slammed the chair open to break the silence to get us to focus. He puts thought into every last detail. So good! You're reactions are so good too! 💗 I've been caught by so many other motorists belting this song out, windows all the way down, no f's given 🤣🤣🤣
The next one is How to be me- live and Ren and Chinchilla busking to sexual healing 🔥🔥 this was her first and only busking time and loved it! When you start her catalog…… It must be Fingers-live, then Little girl gone video ( new. Music) then I love Lockdown get down , then Cold- live she h has recently departed and went independent also does her own production!!! She has a great interview on Chris Liepes channel 💯
Thats 10 out of 10 man. Beautiful and heartbreaking done perfectly to reach us broken people. I cry and i love it makes me cry. Im there...
Amazing reaction as always! Like everyone else I highly suggest "Fingers Live" and "Elements" by Chinchilla and her other duet with Ren - "How to be Me (Live)". They're so incredible together and apart
The way she moves in Elements is so fun and when I am jamming that song in my car, I find myself moving the same way, although I know I don't look nearly as cool 😂
Joe-Joe-Joe.
I love that you use your senses so much in your reactions. You really listen with your feelings, while we get your technical comments. Thanks.
I love this song - but one that tops it. How to be me - Live. Also with Ren and Chincilla
Yes! I too prefer How to be Me live!
Thank u Helena🙏🏽👊🏽❤️
The line towards the end is actually "I'm scared of being ok cos all things change" and it's one of the most relatable lines for me in the song along with the gallows one. Sometimes when you struggle with things like depression it almost becomes comfortable and you don't want to live in the moment because things change and it can feel worse once you've allowed yourself to feel some positivity.
They harmonize beautifully--there's a few of them together--her solo stuff is good too.
What adds so much emotion to me is that the entire time they are looking into each others eyes. Which is just such a powerful statement.
I loved that part
@JoeESparks, you have fast become one of my favourite reactors.
I saw you first on BP's channel reacting to Hi Ren etc. Your passion and appreciation for not just good music but the production of the videos adds an extra element to your reactions.
You wear your heart on your sleeve too which shows with the visible emotions on your face and what you do with your hands (putting them in the air or to your chest etc) is beautiful to see.
Can't wait to see more. You're a joy to watch.
Ah man, MDeakin, thank u bro🙏🏽 I don't like being fake, so while on my (my friends) channel, I will live my truth, ya feel me👊🏽😤💯
I am super late to this. So, I'm guessing that most of your questions have been answered.
There is SO much about this that is wonderful.
The set up, his lyrics, the subtle guitar work and then there is their voices.
But, what always stands out for me. Is the connection that they share. They are completely LOCKED on to each other. Sharing their hearts and souls by being in that very moment.
I don't think either one of them looked directly at the camera once.
Never before has something touched me so much without eye contact.
As for your reaction.
Thank you so very much.
There is nothing better than GENUINE appreciation.
Your excitement and wonderment is a JOY to see.
This is gonna be a fun ride.
I am SOOO here for it.
Exactly!
Don't apologize! Wait til you see Chinchilla on her own 🎉
Ren talks about this during the BP interview. He met her through the label and did a couple songs. He said that she is the female version of him and they connect on teh same wavelength.
Great Reaction! Ren and his friends are all super talented artist. Chinchilla, Sam Tompkins, Romain, I recommend checking them out at some point. Another great Ren x Chinchilla song is How to be me-live version.
And Black Pegasus hasn’t seen How To Be Me either! 😁👍❤️
I totally vibe with how animated he gets while Ren and Chinchilla are vocalizing at the end... Love your reactions bro, keep it up!!!
MikeF, u caught that😂❤ yeah, I've been fed up with music for years...nothing inspiring. And it's like now, with all yall help...I'm get pure musical delight and fulfillment ❤ thanks MikeF👊🏽💯
Ren always surrounds himself with talented people. I think he is a great collaborator because he creates space for others to shine. He and Chinchilla perform another song Ren wrote How To Be Me- the live version is wonderful- the official lyric video has cello ( Ren plays cello) the video of cartoon lyrics.
What I love about your reactions is that how you have this very emotional attachment to artistry
You don't just see the art in front of you but you feel it deep within your core, that passion just radiates from you and it is a beautiful thing to behold
Your director's viewpoint is very refreshing but the thing I find so captivating about your reaction here (first reaction I've seen and subbed, so, hopefully to be seen again) is the raw emotion you put in front of the "explanation" or the "breakdown" more than anything being so unapologetic about your actual response like this is just wonderful to see. Whether that be speechless, tears, applause...love it all. 😉💜🖤
Ren isn't,t a lane he is a highway of human connection history stories reflection and philosophy ...I could like rabbit hole like crazy and have for days yr reaction was beautiful thanks
Oh Joe you know you make me smile. There is a clip of Ren and Chinchilla doing a cover of Marvin Gay's Sexual Healing. This is a busking Session. Chinchilla has played for some large crowds, but never before in the street . She trusted Ren , because she knew he is a Pro at it , and because she and he have both said that they have the same musical DNA .
God, i love this song so much! REN is an absolute treasure and we need to protect him with every god damned fiber in our bodies!
Chinchilla and Ren redo Marvin Gaye’s “sexual healing” that’s really good, chinchilla has some good single too. Besides “little girl gone”, “ fingers” (live) and “elements” are prob some of my favs!!!! ❤
This was another one-take, Live Recording. The reverb in that hallway is both killer and completely natural (much as the hall and stairwell from Violet's Tale). Right before he picks up the chair, Ren is setting the amp and putting on his mic. Totally agree that you should consider the Live version of Fingers by Chinchilla, as well as Little Girl Lost. She's a friend of Ren's. They also did How To Be Me live together. You totally need to interview Sam!
Chinchilla is amazing people be sleeping on her ,little girl gone and fingers live are stunning and she does it all herself too,love your reactions love from the UK
Chinchilla's Fingers (live), Elements, and Little Girl Gone are my favorites of hers. Also, Ren and Chinchilla have another song together called How To Be Me. Check em out!
I think they both had the same management a few years ago.
Ren refers to Chinchilla as his musical sibling.
Chincilla did her first street performance with Ren's assistance and killed it!
i watched this performance so many times and it hit's as hard as the first time still.
Loved your reaction to this. It is truly amazing isn't it? It's crazy the circle of talented people that Ren has surrounding him. You would probably really like The Big Push guitarist Romain Axisa's work as well. He has a new song 'Turn the Lights Down' that has a great video inspired by Bram Stoker's Dracula - and the guitar solo at the end is scorching hot. There's also 'Goodbye Good Days' that showcases his amazing voice and also has a phenomenal guitar solo - the videography on that one is really cool as well. I'd sub, but I already did :)
Truly amazing
The chemistry between Ren and Chinchilla is amazing. You don't usually see this amount of chemistry for collaborations/duets outside of actual band mates that have been working together for years. They have one more duet together that you need to checkout called "How to be Me" and they have the same energy and chemistry in it as they do with this one
Yep every single person Ren hangs with singing and music wise is in his lane of creativity. I swear its a new British Wave...brimming up to take over the world. He has also said Chinchilla is him in female form...they compliment each other so well.
My god thank you for this review. I'm so happy to see others react with the same feeling of being completely blown away. ❤
They have at least 2 more tracs together. I think you enjoy them as well. That high note she hits in this one just gave me the chills at how beautiful it was.
They have a number of duets together, notably 'how to be me', there is also video of them busking together. Chinchilla's solo work is fire too!
Chinchilla is amazing and compliments his voice perfectly ❤ Ren himself is just pure magic. There are and have been a lot of good performers in the music industry but only a very few that are absolutely born to sing. He is an amazing and rare talent
I'm so thrilled to see you react to this one. Live. One take. Just them. I love how every sound is so pronounced. Since it was live, i don't believe there was any post foley. Ren is so talented atconveying emotion. I can't help but feel his sadness, his dim hopefulbess, his facetiousness, his resignation. Chinchilla is the perfect completion to this duet. They also did How to Be Me together. (Nothing wrong with "b&$ch" reaction. Mine the first time was "f&$k off." LOL!) "I'm scared of being okay cuz all things change." I got a hint of Adele at the end there. Chinchilla indeed has her own catalog. The more i listened to this, the more I relate. Talking about not being okay. Having a pill to fix it, but that just numbs us (walk around in floating chalk lines, then erase ourselves in these chalk outlines.) to the point we are not ourselves anymore. Kill the pain or kill our personalities?
❤I’ve heard this so many times and still get full body chills….they’re super great friends. They both say that they’re musical siblings.❤
This song punches me in the gut Every. Single. Time. Thank you for showing your emotions while reacting ❤
So you HAVE TO react to Chinchilla's song "Fingers", live version! She is just incredible. A very powerful live solo performance with just a piano and her amazing voice. Also, her first independent release " Little Girl Gone" is an empowering anthem for anyone who has been used and abused and has found their strength.
Love your reactions! You wear your emotions on your sleeve and are so animated. You bring great production insight.
This simply just stunning and in my top 3 of all time top duets, closely followed by them doing the highly emotional " How to be Me " and then " One Love/Drunk in Love " busking in Brighton UK, just amazing. Love your reaction as well.
I love your love for Ren (and the people he works with)! So happy to see you bring your excitement and appreciation for every little detail down the rabbit hole to join the rest of us ❤
BTW I think you would love the video for Crutch feat. Bibi. Most of it is very simple but so so effective.
Love watching your reactions. So genuine, not afraid to show your emotions. Joyful!
Agreed 100 percent.
This is an Heart opener ( hi heart chakra 😆)
👍🏻💙💎🕊️
Great reaction. "I'm scared of being okay 'cause all things change" resonates with me. It sucks being depressed, but after awhile you rely on stability so the idea of change - even if it's a good change - produces a lot of anxiety.
Love Ren's collaborations; I'm really loving him with Eden Nash (see "Ocean" and "Humble").
Ren x Chinchilla- How to be Me next please Joe E!
Agreed😊
Has to be.
Loving your reaction style Joe... relaxed, chilled, humorous and insightful. Came over to you from black p a few weeks back. Good stuff my man. Keep it up and I'm in for more 👌
Thanks Sean 👊🏽 I'm glad ur enjoying...I'm reading enjoying reacting yo GOOD art and man o man all this stuff has been truly good💯
@@joeesparks7 Looking forward to seeing more of your reactions in future Joe, and thanks for the direct reply. I see your subscriptions are taking off so must be difficult keeping up with all the well wishers. Appreciate it mate 🙌🙌
Ren-Genesis 🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥
Ren and Chinchilla were both on the same record label management team. They then left and became independent artist. So they are big and not just starting out.
"In the gallows standing on my toes so I can breath" has become my favorite line in all of music.
Such a beautiful track and she is an exceptional singer!
I have listened to this track probably more than 20+ times and it evokes such emotion! 💙💙💙
Your gonna love this, looking forward to seeing your reaction and hearing your thoughts. ✊
I really really enjoyed this one...can't wait for u to see!
Great reaction! "How To Be Me" live version with Ren and Chinchilla should be on your list to react to. Make sure it's the live version and not the lyric video to listen to first. I really enjoy watching your emotions as you watch & listen. You have a unique perspective and I learn from your reactions. Thanks.
I think Chinchilla is a spirit, draining the lights for energy so she can manifest and sing a haunting duet with Ren.
As an Englishman, Ren has been our little musical genius secret for a while , now is his time to shine to the world .
Ren described Chinchilla as his sister from another mister.
Also my feelings exactly- Ren draw a to himself all sorts of talented folks. It made me wonder if Brighton is a magical place where talented people gather to bring joy to the world.
Your enthusiasm brings me joy. And I’m learning so much.
Love seeing the joy that music brings to another human being. Amazing reaction! Can’t wait for “I forgot how to be me”- has to be one of your next reactions! Much love
How to be me by ren and chinchilla is amazing as well
This was my Fav from these two until I heard the live version of "how to be me" both songs were written by Ren
Ren and Chinchilla have worked together on a couple of songs--and also busk together.
I think you'd really enjoy doing both versions of Chinchilla's fingers. The live one is the better performance, but the music video is a lot of fun.
So relatable, how you express yourself through what you hear, see, or feel.
The line “I’m scared of being ok, because all things change” gets me every time
I love this song. I especially love when they do the a capella part. Their musicality is just so yin yang. Basically this is about depression, psych issues and psych meds. Sertraline and serotonin (first lines Chinchilla speaks) are psych meds. Sertraline is given for depression, PTSD, OCD and severe anxiety. Serotonin something we have naturally in our brain it helps control depression and they give it to you for severe, persistent depression. (I'm a retired nurse) So walking around in chalk outlines is pretty much like being dead inside. Chalk outlines are usually used to Trace dead bodies in crime scenes.
They do have other videos together and they also did some busking videos together. Chinchilla also has her own music which has blown up since this video. I love your reactions. New sub Black Pegasus sent me from FUQ boys where I've seen a couple of your reactions. Can't wait for the next one. ✌❤😎
Awesome reaction as always. I believe from what I have heard from other reactors is that chinchilla is a friend of Ren's with an outstanding voice. When she hit the highest range of singing "oh my my" the tears started flowing out of joy and knowing this is what excellence and capturing vocal talent is as well as the mood of the song. The live version is also stunning when they are singing it on the same bridge that his friend jumped from. Joe Hughs lives through Ren over and over piece by peace. Keep dancing in the sunshine peace out!
"I'm scared of being ok cause all things change." So them being ok would change essentially. Thanks for the reaction man.
Watching this is like falling in love again
Ren and chinchilla ( how to be me live version )
Thank You Joe e
This was Fun
💙💎🕊️
Love the reaction! Love to find someone who appreciates Ren (and Chinchilla) like I do! Line is “Cause all things change”. Chinchilla is his music sibling, she is absolute 🔥. Do “How to be me” next😊
Holy 💩 I'm on time. Now I gotta wait on the countdown LOL ❤️
I love how emotional you get, I can see my own reactions to beautiful music in your eyes. Like others have said Ren c chinchilla “how to be me” live is an amazing performance as well as chinchilla fingers live. You have only just begun the Ren and friends adventure time. It’s so damn refreshing to come across talent of this level, truly a once in a lifetime talent.
Joe, your passion in your recats of Rens tracks is as infectious as Rens music itself! I love your knowledge and how you apply it to the vids you watch! Im new to Ren, yourself and Black Pegasus (less than a week) and can't stop watching!
Chinchilla is a great singer. Shes ren's friend, and she has an absurdly good video (among many others) to react thats called "fingers" the live version. You should definitelly react to that!
The fact that with all his musical talent he also produces everything, directs the videos, does live one takes and somehow also has Sam as a best friend who just happens to be a great cinematographer blows my mind. And I haven’t even mentioned his equally talented friend Chinchilla! Great talent attracts great talent. Love your reactions Joe E! ❤
As a fellow videographer, youve quickly become my favorite reactor. Your insights into the video production, along with your enthusiasm for the music, makes your videos either here or with Black Pegasus must watch videos.
Thank u Jared...hearing that means more than u will ever know!
All one take..no sound other than the place he's playing ❤
