    I grew up in the same village as both Joe and Ren, they were inseparable and always up to mischief. Ren would have this cheap 3/4 sized acoustic guitar he carried around everywhere with him. All the years later this song still gets me.

    Joe sadly took his life. In the live performance he messed up on the guitar because he was trying to hold it together I believe. In Ren's song Dear God, he sings about losing two friends before he turned 25 and fighting suicidal thoughts himself. Another son of true emotions and artistry. One of my favorites has to be Crutch featuring Bibi, his former girlfriend. It will move you. But, if you do a reaction, please read Ren's message in the description so you understand the meaning of his art in that song. I'm not saying you do this, but when Ren takes the time to share how he came to write a song channels should respect him enough to read what he wrote so they know the meaning of his lyrics. His birthday is tomorrow, 29th. I think he'll be 34. Debuting a new song. He wrote about it on his community page.

      Great advice Laura, and we appreciate that my friend. I think we get caught up in doing a pure and authentic reaction, that we resist the urge to check the background and history of the song. In Rens case, I think it may be a good idea 👍🏾. Thank you for taking the time to watch our channel, and especially taking the time to leave that insightful comment. Make it a great day. - C -

      He'll be 33, but there's a second song which directly speaks to Joe, and it's How to be me with Chinchilla, the live performance being from the Menai Bridge, where Joe left this earth from, but his body was never found.
      RIP Joe - Freckled Angels is the name of a restaurant still in the town... He meant a lot.

    Joes suicide was an event that has haunted Ren ever since and still plays on his mind. It was a beautiful song. Ren X Chinchila 'how to be me' (live) is a perfect song, much more recent, and it again refers to Joe " When he gave up the fight' a quick decision in the night, that stayed with me for all my life. I miss you so."
    Ren has such depth to his soul. Its a sad truth that so many genius musicians have such troubles...

    Ren via Wikipedia:
    Ren started a duo called Trick The Fox. He was discovered by a talent scout in 2009, when the two were busking, and in 2010, he signed a record deal with Sony Records. In 2013, Trick The Fox was listed as one of the acts performing at Beach Break Live 2013 and their music began to receive airplay. The first time they heard one of their songs on the radio was December 2013, when BBC Radio 1xtra played their song Twista. Sony Records later dropped Ren when he was diagnosed with an illness that affected his ability to perform.

    Musically the studio version sounds better, but there’s something beautiful about him performing this song live and only 8 months after the loss.

    What's interesting is, the Ren x Chinchilla song "How to be Me".....the LIVE version, everyone thinks it's filmed on top of a roof/building .....it's actually filmed on top of a bridge. I'm not sure if it's THE bridge, but it is A Bridge. "How to be Me" ends with this verse:
    "When he gave up the fight
    A quick decision late in the night
    That stayed with me for all of my life
    I miss you so"
    Which is a direct tie in with "Freckled Angels" and Joe Hughes.

      Reactors pick songs in many ways, some keep lists and note how often something is requested, some do that but give priority to requests from their Patreon members, some go and pick popular videos from the performers own channel. Probably most use a variety of ways. Some just notice everyone is responding to a video, (like hiRen)and jump on the bandwagon.
      Most reactors aren’t fully monetised due to copyright claims by artists or their labels, selling merch (like the hat this guy didn’t want) is a more reliable low level money maker.

    Hi, when Ren says the song is dedicated to Joe from Menai Bridge, he's referring to the town. The Welsh name for the town is Porthaethwy, but the English name given to later on is based on Menai suspension bridge, hence calling the town Menai bridge. Can be confusing when people aren't sure if an event has happened on the bridge itself or the town and reading about it in English. Welsh is spoken by the majority of people on the island and it's easier to distinguish between the two in Welsh as you have Bont Borth (Menai suspension bridge) and Porthaethwy (Menai bridge town).
    I've seen a lot of people mention that How to be was filmed on the bridge. It wasn't, there's a narrow walkway alongside the road, wouldnt be enough space for that setup (plus there's the noise of the cars you'd need to cancel out).
    You can see what I mean on the photo onthis link
