I’m a singer/songwriter from LA turned licensed trauma therapist for women in Phx. When I found “Hi Ren” last year it truly changed me. It has now changed the lives of so many of my clients too who finally feel heard, seen and not alone. I also manage chronic illness and pain and I have never heard someone express the complexities of chronic illness/medical trauma like Ren. I lost my record contract in my 20’s because of the rollercoaster of chronic illness. I spent years dancing with the light and the dark and almost lost myself completely many times. Now at 45, I am truly living my purpose and I could never have imagined that this would be my beautiful life. I would never have found my purpose had I not survived the falls and started over time and time again. I say that I get to sing my heart song every day. Ren inspired me to let my trapped songbird out of her cage and I am now writing and singing music again for the first time in 20 years. I love watching people react to Hi Ren and am so glad you showed up on my feed. SUBED. It brings me so much joy watching you discover his art and connect with his genius. Edited to add: Ren has an 8 part series on his other channel all about his illnesses. Here’s a link to Chapter 1. ua-cam.com/video/hQP7YoQdF3Y/v-deo.htmlsi=SBwcU1ZtxjsKXGX8
Loved your reaction! I could tell at the end that it started clicking 😂 So, Jenny a silent 14 year old streetwalker (walked the street a thousand times in her high-heeled shoes) and Screech a violent troubled youth are twins. Violet was a victim of abuse from her father and then her partner Stevie. She birthed Jenny and James (Screech) and passed. James inherited the traits of his father Stevie, and Jenny inherited the traits from her mother, Violet. Jenny and James went into the system, grew up not knowing of each other, just for James to kill Jenny. James gets shot and passes. They die (almost) side by side, as they were birthed. The way Ren can make us see something so violent and brutal with only his words is unmatched by anyone else I've heard.
"The way Ren can make us see something so violent and brutal with only his words is unmatched by anyone else I've heard." That sentence right here, this seems worthy of a Ren marketing campaign slogan or something. Please use this sentence and market the heck out of Ren all over social media, or allow us to if we quote you properly? I don't know the correct terms for this stuff, so forgive me if I am off, but this is the most perfect description I've seen in this short a sentence, bravo!
The order of these three tales is also very specific. It highlights the cyclical nature of violence, both in hereditary personality traits and upbringing. It is heartbreaking and so incredibly relatable. The fact that it is relatable is perhaps the most terrifying and soul-destroying.
@kellyfitzpatrick6805 did he? He was in an emotional block, and he said, he thinks there is message at the end, he will look after. He had no light in his eyes. It's fine I missed lots of things. As he goes back to the future on the guitar, or as he tells the story with the intro, in music. A guy read all out from it. Jey!
Such a hard hitting trilogy highlighting generational abuse. Violet dies, you can assume Stevie went to prison and Jenny and Screech end up in the system, separated. Jenny like her mother is quiet. Screech like his father is violent. They were born aligned side by side. They died on the same night a street apart. It’s a hard watch as this stuff happens and Ren’s gift at writing allows you to see everything in your own mind. Great reaction. Never apologise for having a heart filled with empathy. 💜
This is the first time EVER that I've commented on a UA-cam video but I felt compelled: You sir are an absolute gift to the reaction community 💗 Your positive energy, kindness and empathy radiates through the screen and I am SO pleased you found Ren and that we get to go on this reaction journey with you. Big love from Southwest England 🤗xxx P.S. This is the first time I think I've ever seen a reactor show true empathy towards Screech, realising his anger comes from a place of fear - he is also a victim in this tragic tale but his trauma led to him making BAD decisions.
This is a point that Ren wants to point out to us. Transgenerational violence as described in the tales has several aspects. And one is that perpetrator don't fall out of the sky. They have a history that has made them what they are. And that is absolutely no reason to trivialize or excuse their actions. But it is important to understand these circumstances in order to prevent further perpetrators and crimes. And currently society fails to prevent such developments. It is not particularly helpful to put such young people in reform schools or prisons with other offenders. The likelihood that they will improve there is unfortunately quite low.
@@Dr.Brummelexactly. Thank you. It's important to not just blame the individual that, in this moment, is doing something they probably, or definitely, shouldn't be doing - and then stop thinking about it, right there. I see this kind of thing all the time and it isn't very productive for professional healthcare providers (or anyone, really) to just think "well, if you'd stop smoking, drinking, doing drugs, eating junk, being in tumultuous relationships, and not having enough money - you'd probably be healthy and happy instead of having these problems" and not go past that to acknowledge the deeper, often generational and/or systemic issues at play. They don't even have to say it aloud or anything, but ACT as if they're IN KNOWLEDGE of it. Be kind to people, even (maybe especially) when they aren't kind to themselves. ❤
To be clear, i didn't say "healthcare providers" because you're @Dr.Brummel (Are you actually a Dr? If so, that's awesome.) I said it because I've spent quite a few years working in various roles in healthcare in the U.S. and have seen this first hand. Probably even done it myself more than I'd like to admit, but I try not to.
@@wendelldobson3264 No I'm not a medical doctor, I just got a PhD in computer science and professionally develop medical software (for cancer diagnosis). So I am not a specialist in medical or psychological issues. By the way there is at least one reactor that sheds a light on Screech. Stuart J Randall who is a psychotherapist himself and works in youth justice did a great reaction on the tales. Look for "Youth Justice Psychotherapist REACTS to first listen of Ren Tale of Jenny, Screech and Violet".
You are a fantastic and insightful reactor. You are the first person, as far as I know, who has shown empathy for Screech. And you've made me think a lot about that. He must have grown up in a ghastly environment. I'm a 70 year old woman from South Africa and a complete and utter renegade. As an English teacher, I have noticed Ren has extensive vocabulary that he draws from. Thank you for your reaction.
I think Ren identifies heavily with Screech. Not that he's like him, but that he understands him. I especially got that feeling when I watched the IG stories where he pretended to be Screech to hype up the release of Screech's tale. I didn't see those IG stories until after I'd seen Screech's tale, but once I saw them, I was able to feel so much more for him, as a character, than disgust. Ren humanized him.
Oh my goodness you precious young man💛 I can’t thank you enough for your empathetic reaction! I’m on the brink of 62 years young and discovered Ren 2 years ago. This beautiful soul seriously sustained me through one of the darkest periods of my life. I’ve been feeding off of multiple reactions daily since. I’m keeping it real when I say you bypassed them all❣️ Ren was highlighting social injustices in this piece and you quickly understood the victimization of all the characters without judgement! Grateful for the faith you restored in my spirit for the generations following me. Life after Ren is never the same and trust me, yours will be abundantly impacted in every good way possible with your thoughtful reactions! Ren brought me here but make no mistake YOU my new friend will keep me here! I can’t wait to watch and see what’s in store for you in this beautiful Reneverse💫 Congratulations🎉
Samuel Perry-Falvey is the videographer for many many of Ren's cinematic videos. Also the driver in the video for Power, which should absolutely be on your playlist if it isn't yet, along with Genesis.
One of my favorite parts of the Tales is at the beginning of Violet’s Tale. After his intro but before he gets into the song. He stands up, adjusts himself, you hear his breath and the slight ping of a guitar string. Any other song or video, this would either have been edited out or just completely insignificant. But, with Ren, he builds this anticipation and tension with silence that’s palpable. - Also, as an America, the “Two zero zero five” I thought was a postal code or something for London. It wasn’t until many listens I realized it was 2005 the year. And, 14 years later…2019…when the tales released. Great reaction, man. Loved it.
I originally thought it was an address as well necause of the "there's no sign of Patrick down at number 54". Then i saw a reactor said 2005 and i was like oh shit. And then realized the rest
Two twins… born side by side on the same day. Raised separately, never knowing of each others existence. Died one street apart on the same day. The tragedy of generational trauma. A truly heartfelt and empathic reaction. I think we should 100% sympathize with Screech, as well. And Richard. Ren is incredibly rare and special. I hope he truly truly understands what a difference he makes. ☮️♥️
I’ve literally watched this trilogy TONS with different reactors, and I legit DID start crying watching it with you. 😭 Thankfully, you brought me back with a giggle when the realization hit you at the end. 🤭 lol. Ren’s storytelling is phenomenal in this … and let’s be honest, the rhyming, singing and the guitar playing … puh-leeeeez! 👏 I will NEVER get tired of watching it, but I think you may have been my fave so far! 😊🫶 Keep up the great work, sir! We might have come for Ren, but we are staying here because of YOU! ❤
Thank you for the reaction. The look on your face as you started to put the Violet, Jenny & Screech puzzle together. It is truly an amazing storytelling from Ren this.❤
Re-posting this then: I haven't been commenting much, but your reaction is so thoughtful, man. I've literally watched dozens of reactions to this piece (ranging from really popular reactors to really small ones) and there's, I dunno, so much genuity and honesty to it, thank you for sharing that! That's what Ren's music does to us all, I guess. But then again, yours is the one that shows how empathetic and kind of a soul you are. Keep it up, bro! Cheers from Poland.
I cry every time I hear it. I love that Ren isn’t afraid to show such emotion in his songs. We are all witnessing masterpieces being made with this young genius.
“….the shrill cry of justice cut him like the sharpest knife” An overlooked piece of poetic genius. The irony of “justice cutting him” having just sliced up Jenny…
Well done man. Really appreciate your empathy toward Screech and the police officer, many don’t get that on first watch. Enjoy your rewatch and digging into the layers that are revealed.
But how different does the acoustic version of Troubles hit. The original is my autoimmune and pain anthem. Puts a fire in my belly. The acoustic, is my heart breaking sitting at home, alone in the depths of frustration and pain! 😢❤ that's the genius of Ren. Fire and rain
we see ur aaaahhhhhaaaaa moment lol , much love ! don't be sorry for feeling the story and song... its a genuine reaction and Imo that's the best!!! not to mention its part of what makes Ren loved by many .. he's got that "special spark"... as one of my favorite comedians would say ... Robin Williams... "You're only given one little spark of madness. You mustn't lose it'"
Bro. First of all, great reaction. I watch Ren reactions videos every day since I don’t know when, but it’s been a while. A LOT of reactors get emotional watching his videos, specifically this one. It’s an emotional rollercoaster. I cry everyday watching reactors watching and listening to Ren for the first time. 🙂 He’s anAmazing artist.
I’m glad you whatched the video when Ren explains the Kujo situation, thanks for taking the time to see his caracter You should really whatch his video about succes when he got 1 million subs, it gives you a glimpse of who Ren is a person
The sound and visual are both great in this one, good job, Tre! This trilogy is ROUGH and yet beautiful. Ren's talent is way out there - next solar system kind of out there!
Loved the way i could literally see the wheels turning in your brain. Love that Ren makes people think. And its awesome to see another person in the Atlanta area enjoy some Ren. I was beginning to think that i was the only one lol. Great reaction 👏. Peace
I'm really enjoying your reactions! Please don't worry or apologize about getting choked up or shedding tears! Most of us are crying right along with you (I know I was anyway, lol). Oh, and we will absolutely watch long reactions 🤣 May I make a small suggestion? When you pause it, go back a couple of seconds before pushing play. I've seen too many reactors miss important lyrics by not going back a little bit! Again, only a suggestion... I know in our excitement that some of us can come off kinda bossy or demanding, lol. 💚💙💜
I love watching reaction videos to Ren's songs. I've watched literally thousands of reactions from people new to Ren in the year since I was introduced to him, through a reaction video for "Hi Ren" in March of '23. I often dig into the reactor's library to see what else they've published and I'm amused by how often they deeply dive into the Ren Rabbit Hole and both they and their channel become, not just Renagades but, quite literally a Ren tribute site until they have devoured every bit of Ren they can find! That being said, out of all the reaction videos to his music I've watched, you are literally only the second person I've actually subscribed to. Your wit, drama, expressions, and insight are just fantastic and I'm pleased to have found your channel a few days ago!
He definitely “cooks the noodles” Brilliant, beautiful reaction to this masterpiece. Subbed to share in your magical journey further into the Reniverse. Much love from Tasmania Australia 🇦🇺 ❤
Another beautiful reaction. I love that you have so much sympathy for all the characters. Often when we read news stories about these types of incidents, we forget that every person involved is a human being...even if they've done something terrible. Some people have so little resources or power in life that it's a miracle if their lives don't turn out tragic You seem to be a bit unsure of yourself as a reactor. You're great. Just found out this morning that one of my sisters loves you, too❤❤❤
Thank you for sharing another wonderful reaction with us! Samuel is Samuel Perry Falvey, a friend of Ren's and the videographer for several of Ren's videos. He's very talented and has started to get noticed, winning a few awards for some of Ren and Sam's videos. Also, yes - Ren is self-taught on every instrument he plays (and there are a few!) I saw an interview once with Ren where he said that he "sees the shape of the music" that he wants to create, and then he figures out how to make the instrument create the same "shape." I think Ren was just born with music flowing through him. Oh, and if you do want to hear Ren cry on a song, listen to Suic*de.
Fun Fact: When someone hears colors or sees sound, it's called synesthesia. It's a neurological condition that people are normally born with, but some people have developed it later in life due to TBI (traumatic brain injury). Basically, it's where something meant to stimulate one sense stimulates another sense or combines or more senses, with one normally being dominant. It's not super rare but they estimate that only about 2-4% of people in the world have it, so once again, he's special!
I was getting worried. I was right at the end of the video and got an error, then it said it had been deleted. Glad it isn't really gone. Great reaction and nice to see someone emotionally invested. Ren is such an amazing storyteller, and I wish I could see this trilogy for the first time again. Instead I have to watch others watch it for the first time.
Awesome reactions to Ren, the master of art and talent. I'm 48yo and have never noticed another artist musician who is so true, relatable and just pure awesomeness. Keep up the great work 👍
Hi again from down Under 👍. I absolutely love your reactions to Rens talent. Please 🙏 please 🙏 check out Australian independent artist, and Australia's harshest poet, amazing story telling, "Complete". An amazing lyricist and artist. About 8 years ago he bought out a song called Jordan. Please 🙏 check this out first! Then Taxi.. if you are not too bown away from this raw talent, I'll do cartwheels, backwards 🤨 I'm 48 yo. But absolutely love music talent. I'm begging for your reactions to this man COMPLETE (Sheldon). I met him few weeks ago in Melbourne, really really nice bloke. Tell me twice, is a newer hit, explains a bit of a day in his life. He suffers a lot but different to Ren. Two of the best storytelling I have ever seen and heard 💯🌷
Don't apologize for a emotional reaction, we all went through it and relive it through you. Also, the world needs more empathy and I love that it can also embrace a broken and hurt child like Screech. If generational trauma (or other types of trauma for that matter)is to end and ppl heal we need more grownups who can be safe and nurturing and help de-escalate situations like Jenny's, Screeche's and Violet's.
I loved the Three Count there at the end while your mind was spinning trying to realize what Ren said about the twins. Well done. One thing that I've always noticed, is that both Jenny and Screeches Tales end with the line, "It's such a shame". One way to look at this is as the indifference of society to these sort of things. We've all hear or read a news story about someone being killed and we think, "oh, that's a shame", and life goes on, nothing changes.
I came back to this video after watching your Sickboi reaction and getting a message saying the vid was deleted. My first comment on this video is gone, the like I left is also gone. UA-cam be acting up or something. Anyway, much love from 🇨🇦 Watching again for your numbers
Your empathetic response is the strongest one I have seen of screech…. Yes, people talked about how sad the situation is… and it is… but the way you slice through and share you connection and interpretation…. I love it…. Also, this is what blew me away.. it was like a 1 man play… deserving of the highest accolades. The new thing I was thinking thanks to your comment on the aged sound. I totally agree.. there’s a timelessness to it… which lead me to a bit deeper on why this feels so timeless.. I think it’s the marriage of the traveling minstrel with his songs of tales going city to city to make a living once upon a time…. So his walking around brings that impression… but also… the use of classical guitar mixed with modern day poetry/rap… so the combo makes this a timeless piece… everything about these tales i love… the continuous shot, live performance … just wow… I’m excited to watch you experience this… this was me like 6 months ago.
Glad to be part of the Tre Den! Seriously, your attitude is so fucking refreshing!!!! Your looks of amazement when it comes to our Boi are bliss to witness my guy. KuGuapo is a new love too!!!! The family is coming together.
Man! I was saying in my head please rewind and listen the whole way through! Would have loved to see your reaction when you realize that they are brother and sister! But still another great reaction! Keep it up! PS I want more. 😊
This is one of the most beautifully heartfelt and empathic reactions. You really needn't apologise for tearing up, nor should you hold them back. I'm sure I speak for many Renegades when I say that a lot of us have. Myself included. Keep doing what you are doing, continue being true to yourself. Ren has somehow managed to take us all on it, in all it's intricately self-reflective ways. Most of us have done this within our daily lives and watched how it's beauty manifests itself within us and in our worlds. It's a pleasure watching you, an obviously kind hearted young man discovering it. Thank you so much for sharing these intimate moments. Peace, brother.😊
Great reaction ❤. Just so you know, we as Renegades don't care how long the video is. We love to hear reactors work through Rens lyrics to catch what he is saying, even if you have to rewind and watch it over again. We love that aha moment on the reactions
Hey man, don't sweat the length of a genuine reaction vid. I watch these to connect with the world. I would have loved to listen to you talk it out while your thoughts were cooking! I had the biggest grin when you were putting the pieces together! ❤
Tonight is the first time I’ve watched your channel. I’m a 55 yr old female and I love music! I just kind of ran into REN while watching reaction videos and was completely blown away! He is truly like no other artist I’ve ever heard. I love to watch people react to Hi Ren because it’s simply genius. It’s so unusual it catches you off guard! You had a new subscriber in like 5 minutes! You’ve got really good energy! I’m excited to watch some of your other reactions and can not wait for The Money Game reaction!!! Keep it up! ✌🏼
What a beautiful soul you are... You showed so much empathy throughout this reaction and I just had to comment to tell you that it's ok to cry.... In fact as a man it's important you know that your tears are just as valid as any woman's.... Anyone who says different is part of the problem. Renegades love Ren because he's able to create music and space for us to connect to difficult topics and emotions in ways that just speak to our souls.... He puts my emotions into words for me and that means I feel less alone in them The Renegades will continue to find you and support you... Don't ever apologise for being you and bring authentic in your feelings.... We're here for it. ❤
No need to apologize. Ren brings the emotions to the forefront. Loved you're reaction and your willingness to dig into the back information. Keep doing what you do.
Your reactions....you reflect my own feelings so much and every time I watch it it reminds me of that awe of seeing Ren for the first time. Thank you so much ❤
Naw man I appreciate the long videos and all your thoughts on the subject matter. Please don’t apologize for taking your time to process things and get your thoughts out, it’s what I love about watching a reaction video to Ren, or any artist I enjoy. Could see this hit hard. Hit me hard too, everyone I hear it, it hits a little deeper. Appreciate your genuineness and empathy towards the violent cycle people get caught up in or born into. Take care man ❤️
Well, I'm not 80, but I am a 51 year old Ren fan who found your page through these reactions I'm now also a Treactionz fan, your personality is just magnetic!
Please never apologize for the length of a video. Us renegades LOVE when people discover this journey we are all taking through ren. I wont speak for everyone but i will speak for myself, i would watch you for over an hour as you break this down and make all the realizations you get. Its the magic of Ren. He is such a welsh bard, you can tell why kings were scared of them, they could take down kingdoms by the spread of their tales. So please ask those questions, answer them yourself as they come to you with us or wait for comments. We love you and love the message you are helping Ren spread. You are a true renegade through and through.
Hey thanks for a great reaction 👍❤ It's totally okay to tear up at such a brutal topic. "We must not forget that we are human beings". Lots of us teared up at the first listen and/or still do so.
It's hard to give criticism when your reactions are so well done. You're thoughtful, authentic and honest as far as I can tell. So many of us appreciate those qualities. And your sound and video quality are GREAT! (I know this is a reload but still). Keep on keepin on...and please don't forget...YOU'RE A HUMAN....BEING.
Love your reactions to one of my favorite artists living today. You are in for such a journey, he is not a one trick pony either, he cannot be contained or pigeon holed into a certain genre of music, but his own, unique blend of everything.As people have called his craft, he is Bard-core, which does encapsulate his talent.
This is such a hard hitting one ,and your reaction and emotions show that so clearly ❤ it is incredible and you just showed us that , love your reaction, you are such a great reactor 😊 For something lighter from Ren try back in 74 live ,he s so good ,and this show s his vocals off so well . Also Ren and Chinchilla, chalk outlines, it's beautiful ❤
You are such an empathetic reactor! These songs hit mighty hard. Of course we’d watch a 32 min video!! Take care, and continue to enjoy your journey into the Reniverse! 🥰
Just another angle on Patrick's call to his girlfriend-- you commented "Oh, the poor kid, he's really scared" (or something to that effect). I'd suggest that while it's true Ren was showing that, but he was also showing how violent-tempered, hair-trigger and manipulative he was, even at 14. If you have occasion to listen to the song again with this in mind, I think you'll see it too, and appreciate this other level Ren adds with just a single line...that single switch Patrick makes from cajoling and sweet to vicious and attacking. Part of Ren's genius for painting a character... And...love your reactions, for reasons I've already mentioned in previous comments. I subbed from the first one I watched, which was "Hi Ren" (which was the one I initially came here for.
Yep, 72yo Ren-egade here. Pretty obsessed in fact. Thank you for your reactions to this extraordinary artist. The moment the penny dropped for me that Violet was the mother of Jenny and Screech was sheer grief and disbelief. Master storyteller that he is, it's so REAL!! I could see you trying to process that too. If Ren doesn't deserve the description "the real deal" I don't know who does.
I am hooked on your reactions, man. That gasp at the end, when you “got it” and had to end, lost for words. I would definitely watch a 32+ minute video from you, any day. Your insight (and empathy) is lovely. Just what Ren is aiming for, I believe.
I've watched so many reactions to this song and you the only person with the emotional intelligence to understand all of the song. We in the same boat. Thanks for putting this review out to the world. I hope more people watch it.
Always amazing to watch reactions to Rens genius; and his buddy Sam for his great camerawork. 😊 I am convinced the fast guitar run at the beginning of Screeches tale is to get our hearts pumping; like screech's heart is in his panic after he f'd up. So genius. 🔥 It's a powerful social commentary that needs to be addressed in so many areas. We are failing those victims of domestic violence, generational trauma, and the broken systems everywhere that fail the innocent children caught in the middle.
I’m a singer/songwriter from LA turned licensed trauma therapist for women in Phx. When I found “Hi Ren” last year it truly changed me. It has now changed the lives of so many of my clients too who finally feel heard, seen and not alone. I also manage chronic illness and pain and I have never heard someone express the complexities of chronic illness/medical trauma like Ren. I lost my record contract in my 20’s because of the rollercoaster of chronic illness. I spent years dancing with the light and the dark and almost lost myself completely many times. Now at 45, I am truly living my purpose and I could never have imagined that this would be my beautiful life. I would never have found my purpose had I not survived the falls and started over time and time again. I say that I get to sing my heart song every day. Ren inspired me to let my trapped songbird out of her cage and I am now writing and singing music again for the first time in 20 years. I love watching people react to Hi Ren and am so glad you showed up on my feed. SUBED. It brings me so much joy watching you discover his art and connect with his genius.
Edited to add: Ren has an 8 part series on his other channel all about his illnesses. Here’s a link to Chapter 1.

So glad for you, Kristen. 🤩 All the best from Belgium
Never apologise for showing emotions, remember "we are human beings". Awesome reaction again Trè.
Loved your reaction! I could tell at the end that it started clicking 😂
So, Jenny a silent 14 year old streetwalker (walked the street a thousand times in her high-heeled shoes) and Screech a violent troubled youth are twins.
Violet was a victim of abuse from her father and then her partner Stevie. She birthed Jenny and James (Screech) and passed. James inherited the traits of his father Stevie, and Jenny inherited the traits from her mother, Violet.
Jenny and James went into the system, grew up not knowing of each other, just for James to kill Jenny. James gets shot and passes. They die (almost) side by side, as they were birthed.
The way Ren can make us see something so violent and brutal with only his words is unmatched by anyone else I've heard.
"The way Ren can make us see something so violent and brutal with only his words is unmatched by anyone else I've heard."
That sentence right here, this seems worthy of a Ren marketing campaign slogan or something. Please use this sentence and market the heck out of Ren all over social media, or allow us to if we quote you properly? I don't know the correct terms for this stuff, so forgive me if I am off, but this is the most perfect description I've seen in this short a sentence, bravo!
The order of these three tales is also very specific. It highlights the cyclical nature of violence, both in hereditary personality traits and upbringing. It is heartbreaking and so incredibly relatable. The fact that it is relatable is perhaps the most terrifying and soul-destroying.
The moment you realized.
Jenny and Screech were the twins.
Did he?
@@szolanekI don't think he did on camera but you could see the wheels turning it was coming to him. I bet he got it on the next playthrough
@kellyfitzpatrick6805 did he?
He was in an emotional block, and he said, he thinks there is message at the end, he will look after. He had no light in his eyes. It's fine
I missed lots of things. As he goes back to the future on the guitar, or as he tells the story with the intro, in music. A guy read all out from it. Jey!
I don't know he definitely seemed to think the twins were a metaphor for something and not the actual twins, Jenny and Screech.
@@szolanekhe got it...he just didn't trust his instincts 😂
Such a hard hitting trilogy highlighting generational abuse. Violet dies, you can assume Stevie went to prison and Jenny and Screech end up in the system, separated.
Jenny like her mother is quiet. Screech like his father is violent.
They were born aligned side by side. They died on the same night a street apart.
It’s a hard watch as this stuff happens and Ren’s gift at writing allows you to see everything in your own mind.
Great reaction. Never apologise for having a heart filled with empathy. 💜
I'm 69 and 18 months on the Ren journey. This young man is pure heart and soul. He is a genius putting out masterpieces.
This is the first time EVER that I've commented on a UA-cam video but I felt compelled: You sir are an absolute gift to the reaction community 💗 Your positive energy, kindness and empathy radiates through the screen and I am SO pleased you found Ren and that we get to go on this reaction journey with you.

P.S. This is the first time I think I've ever seen a reactor show true empathy towards Screech, realising his anger comes from a place of fear - he is also a victim in this tragic tale but his trauma led to him making BAD decisions.
You are right @VivienneEvans-m5r Admiting that Ren has us empathising with Screech, for a bit, is the hardest bit for people to react to.
This is a point that Ren wants to point out to us. Transgenerational violence as described in the tales has several aspects. And one is that perpetrator don't fall out of the sky. They have a history that has made them what they are. And that is absolutely no reason to trivialize or excuse their actions. But it is important to understand these circumstances in order to prevent further perpetrators and crimes. And currently society fails to prevent such developments. It is not particularly helpful to put such young people in reform schools or prisons with other offenders. The likelihood that they will improve there is unfortunately quite low.
@@Dr.Brummelexactly. Thank you. It's important to not just blame the individual that, in this moment, is doing something they probably, or definitely, shouldn't be doing - and then stop thinking about it, right there.
I see this kind of thing all the time and it isn't very productive for professional healthcare providers (or anyone, really) to just think "well, if you'd stop smoking, drinking, doing drugs, eating junk, being in tumultuous relationships, and not having enough money - you'd probably be healthy and happy instead of having these problems" and not go past that to acknowledge the deeper, often generational and/or systemic issues at play.
They don't even have to say it aloud or anything, but ACT as if they're IN KNOWLEDGE of it. Be kind to people, even (maybe especially) when they aren't kind to themselves. ❤
To be clear, i didn't say "healthcare providers" because you're @Dr.Brummel (Are you actually a Dr? If so, that's awesome.)
I said it because I've spent quite a few years working in various roles in healthcare in the U.S. and have seen this first hand. Probably even done it myself more than I'd like to admit, but I try not to.
@@wendelldobson3264 No I'm not a medical doctor, I just got a PhD in computer science and professionally develop medical software (for cancer diagnosis). So I am not a specialist in medical or psychological issues.
By the way there is at least one reactor that sheds a light on Screech. Stuart J Randall who is a psychotherapist himself and works in youth justice did a great reaction on the tales. Look for "Youth Justice Psychotherapist REACTS to first listen of Ren Tale of Jenny, Screech and Violet".
You are a fantastic and insightful reactor. You are the first person, as far as I know, who has shown empathy for Screech. And you've made me think a lot about that. He must have grown up in a ghastly environment.
I'm a 70 year old woman from South Africa and a complete and utter renegade. As an English teacher, I have noticed Ren has extensive vocabulary that he draws from.
Thank you for your reaction.
I think Ren identifies heavily with Screech. Not that he's like him, but that he understands him. I especially got that feeling when I watched the IG stories where he pretended to be Screech to hype up the release of Screech's tale. I didn't see those IG stories until after I'd seen Screech's tale, but once I saw them, I was able to feel so much more for him, as a character, than disgust. Ren humanized him.
Oh my goodness you precious young man💛
I can’t thank you enough for your empathetic reaction! I’m on the brink of 62 years young and discovered Ren 2 years ago. This beautiful soul seriously sustained me through one of the darkest periods of my life. I’ve been feeding off of multiple reactions daily since. I’m keeping it real when I say you bypassed them all❣️
Ren was highlighting social injustices in this piece and you quickly understood the victimization of all the characters without judgement! Grateful for the faith you restored in my spirit for the generations following me. Life after Ren is never the same and trust me, yours will be abundantly impacted in every good way possible with your thoughtful reactions!
Ren brought me here but make no mistake YOU my new friend will keep me here!
I can’t wait to watch and see what’s in store for you in this beautiful Reneverse💫
Congratulations🎉
Samuel Perry-Falvey is the videographer for many many of Ren's cinematic videos. Also the driver in the video for Power, which should absolutely be on your playlist if it isn't yet, along with Genesis.
I so agree, “Power” and “Genesis” are great! I like to bring up “Crutch” which is not seen often enough.
You don’t need to hold back. We have all been through it.
One of my favorite parts of the Tales is at the beginning of Violet’s Tale.
After his intro but before he gets into the song. He stands up, adjusts himself, you hear his breath and the slight ping of a guitar string.
Any other song or video, this would either have been edited out or just completely insignificant. But, with Ren, he builds this anticipation and tension with silence that’s palpable.
-
Also, as an America, the “Two zero zero five” I thought was a postal code or something for London. It wasn’t until many listens I realized it was 2005 the year. And, 14 years later…2019…when the tales released.
Great reaction, man. Loved it.
Duh, thank you for pointing out that that was the year….here I’ve been wondering the significance of the address. 😛
I originally thought it was an address as well necause of the "there's no sign of Patrick down at number 54". Then i saw a reactor said 2005 and i was like oh shit. And then realized the rest
I agree about the adjustments 100%.. it makes it so much more real..
Two twins… born side by side on the same day. Raised separately, never knowing of each others existence. Died one street apart on the same day. The tragedy of generational trauma.
A truly heartfelt and empathic reaction. I think we should 100% sympathize with Screech, as well. And Richard.
Ren is incredibly rare and special. I hope he truly truly understands what a difference he makes. ☮️♥️
I’ve literally watched this trilogy TONS with different reactors, and I legit DID start crying watching it with you. 😭 Thankfully, you brought me back with a giggle when the realization hit you at the end. 🤭 lol. Ren’s storytelling is phenomenal in this … and let’s be honest, the rhyming, singing and the guitar playing … puh-leeeeez! 👏 I will NEVER get tired of watching it, but I think you may have been my fave so far! 😊🫶 Keep up the great work, sir! We might have come for Ren, but we are staying here because of YOU! ❤
You're moment of realisation at the end, when he named the twins was a moment!.
Everything ren does hits hard.
It's so hard hitting isn't it? I've heard it referred to as 'Ren Night Shyamalan' due to the ending. No criticisms, you're doing brilliantly.
Haha I love that
Thank you for the reaction. The look on your face as you started to put the Violet, Jenny & Screech puzzle together. It is truly an amazing storytelling from Ren this.❤
Re-posting this then:
I haven't been commenting much, but your reaction is so thoughtful, man. I've literally watched dozens of reactions to this piece (ranging from really popular reactors to really small ones) and there's, I dunno, so much genuity and honesty to it, thank you for sharing that! That's what Ren's music does to us all, I guess. But then again, yours is the one that shows how empathetic and kind of a soul you are. Keep it up, bro! Cheers from Poland.
Nyc usa 74yr old woman appreciate all the the people of the world appreciate ren
Love from France Pauline ❤
Ya got to hit up Suicide and For Joe. Back story is Ren was literally minutes away before his best friend jumped. Talk about misty eyes.
I cry every time I hear it. I love that Ren isn’t afraid to show such emotion in his songs. We are all witnessing masterpieces being made with this young genius.
Comment for the algo! Will never get tired of watching reactions to this one. 🖤
Thank you for your honest, empathic and emotionally beautiful reaction.
“….the shrill cry of justice cut him like the sharpest knife”
An overlooked piece of poetic genius. The irony of “justice cutting him” having just sliced up Jenny…
I’m 66, REN is a talented genius& he is a sweetheart.
Love him 🥰
Well done man. Really appreciate your empathy toward Screech and the police officer, many don’t get that on first watch. Enjoy your rewatch and digging into the layers that are revealed.
This! 👏🏻👏🏻
Love your reaction to Ren.. I'm 66 yrs and found Ren just recently. His music has changed my life. I've subscribed to your channel BTW. ❤
“Elastic bands only stretch so far and then snap”
Troubles ~ Ren
But how different does the acoustic version of Troubles hit. The original is my autoimmune and pain anthem. Puts a fire in my belly. The acoustic, is my heart breaking sitting at home, alone in the depths of frustration and pain! 😢❤ that's the genius of Ren. Fire and rain
That silent conversation you had at the end was so loud! Could see it clicking 😂😂
we see ur aaaahhhhhaaaaa moment lol , much love ! don't be sorry for feeling the story and song... its a genuine reaction and Imo that's the best!!! not to mention its part of what makes Ren loved by many .. he's got that "special spark"... as one of my favorite comedians would say ... Robin Williams... "You're only given one little spark of madness. You mustn't lose it'"
Speaking of you’re “losing it”… if u like rap you should listen to his song Losing It!!
Agreed! It’s a great pick me up after these darker stories!
Agreed, let's make his floorboards, walls and windows shake.
When Tré mentioned losing it, I lost it. Yep, please put Losing It into the queue.
One of my faves! ☮️🇬🇧
Bro. First of all, great reaction. I watch Ren reactions videos every day since I don’t know when, but it’s been a while. A LOT of reactors get emotional watching his videos, specifically this one. It’s an emotional rollercoaster. I cry everyday watching reactors watching and listening to Ren for the first time. 🙂 He’s anAmazing artist.
Samuel is the videographer he works with a lot. Money game pt3 and Kujo Beat Down are his work too
I initially followed to see your REN reactions! Glad to see all the love over the world as a RENagade. This one is intense!
Great channel
I’m glad you whatched the video when Ren explains the Kujo situation, thanks for taking the time to see his caracter
You should really whatch his video about succes when he got 1 million subs, it gives you a glimpse of who Ren is a person
How do we learn to have empathy and understanding for all humans? The storyteller tells a tale of woe with an impactful message to us all.
The sound and visual are both great in this one, good job, Tre! This trilogy is ROUGH and yet beautiful. Ren's talent is way out there - next solar system kind of out there!
Loved the way i could literally see the wheels turning in your brain. Love that Ren makes people think. And its awesome to see another person in the Atlanta area enjoy some Ren. I was beginning to think that i was the only one lol. Great reaction 👏. Peace
Love the empathy - as said many times before, watching reactions is the closest we will get to our first experience again.
I'm really enjoying your reactions! Please don't worry or apologize about getting choked up or shedding tears! Most of us are crying right along with you (I know I was anyway, lol). Oh, and we will absolutely watch long reactions 🤣
May I make a small suggestion? When you pause it, go back a couple of seconds before pushing play. I've seen too many reactors miss important lyrics by not going back a little bit! Again, only a suggestion... I know in our excitement that some of us can come off kinda bossy or demanding, lol.
💚💙💜
If you want one where he cries, Suic!de, For Joe, or Depression
For Joe wrecks me hard, every time
Agreed amazing song and will for sure make you cry
Suic!de breaks me each and every time i hear it, but I can't help listening to it, it's amazing how he channeled his pain there
Or dial it way back to 'Ren Ft. Bibi - Crutch' where he looks like he's still in high school with his girlfriend.
Freckled angels too!!
I love watching reaction videos to Ren's songs. I've watched literally thousands of reactions from people new to Ren in the year since I was introduced to him, through a reaction video for "Hi Ren" in March of '23. I often dig into the reactor's library to see what else they've published and I'm amused by how often they deeply dive into the Ren Rabbit Hole and both they and their channel become, not just Renagades but, quite literally a Ren tribute site until they have devoured every bit of Ren they can find! That being said, out of all the reaction videos to his music I've watched, you are literally only the second person I've actually subscribed to. Your wit, drama, expressions, and insight are just fantastic and I'm pleased to have found your channel a few days ago!
This is what Ren does. He just breeds love!!😂❤
He definitely “cooks the noodles” Brilliant, beautiful reaction to this masterpiece. Subbed to share in your magical journey further into the Reniverse. Much love from Tasmania Australia 🇦🇺 ❤
I’m 62 and just recently found Ren. I’m so obsessed that I share him with Everyone. Love your reaction videos! ❤❤
Truly enjoyed your reaction! Don't apologize or hold back! It's a beautiful thing to witness someone being enraptured, moved, and inspired.
Samuel Perry-Falvey is the videographer for many of Ren's videos
Another beautiful reaction. I love that you have so much sympathy for all the characters. Often when we read news stories about these types of incidents, we forget that every person involved is a human being...even if they've done something terrible. Some people have so little resources or power in life that it's a miracle if their lives don't turn out tragic
You seem to be a bit unsure of yourself as a reactor. You're great. Just found out this morning that one of my sisters loves you, too❤❤❤
The beginning - Ren "scats" pretty often and it's really cool because it's an older technique best known is Ella Fitzgerald
Thank you for sharing another wonderful reaction with us! Samuel is Samuel Perry Falvey, a friend of Ren's and the videographer for several of Ren's videos. He's very talented and has started to get noticed, winning a few awards for some of Ren and Sam's videos. Also, yes - Ren is self-taught on every instrument he plays (and there are a few!) I saw an interview once with Ren where he said that he "sees the shape of the music" that he wants to create, and then he figures out how to make the instrument create the same "shape." I think Ren was just born with music flowing through him. Oh, and if you do want to hear Ren cry on a song, listen to Suic*de.
Fun Fact:
When someone hears colors or sees sound, it's called synesthesia. It's a neurological condition that people are normally born with, but some people have developed it later in life due to TBI (traumatic brain injury). Basically, it's where something meant to stimulate one sense stimulates another sense or combines or more senses, with one normally being dominant. It's not super rare but they estimate that only about 2-4% of people in the world have it, so once again, he's special!
I was getting worried. I was right at the end of the video and got an error, then it said it had been deleted. Glad it isn't really gone. Great reaction and nice to see someone emotionally invested. Ren is such an amazing storyteller, and I wish I could see this trilogy for the first time again. Instead I have to watch others watch it for the first time.
Same here. Got to the end. Clicked Comment “Error” and eventually “Video has been removed by uploader.” Minutes later and here it is.
Ditto
Awesome reactions to Ren, the master of art and talent. I'm 48yo and have never noticed another artist musician who is so true, relatable and just pure awesomeness. Keep up the great work 👍
Hi again from down Under 👍. I absolutely love your reactions to Rens talent. Please 🙏 please 🙏 check out Australian independent artist, and Australia's harshest poet, amazing story telling, "Complete". An amazing lyricist and artist. About 8 years ago he bought out a song called Jordan. Please 🙏 check this out first! Then Taxi.. if you are not too bown away from this raw talent, I'll do cartwheels, backwards 🤨 I'm 48 yo. But absolutely love music talent. I'm begging for your reactions to this man COMPLETE (Sheldon). I met him few weeks ago in Melbourne, really really nice bloke. Tell me twice, is a newer hit, explains a bit of a day in his life. He suffers a lot but different to Ren. Two of the best storytelling I have ever seen and heard 💯🌷
Don't apologize for a emotional reaction, we all went through it and relive it through you.
Also, the world needs more empathy and I love that it can also embrace a broken and hurt child like Screech. If generational trauma (or other types of trauma for that matter)is to end and ppl heal we need more grownups who can be safe and nurturing and help de-escalate situations like Jenny's, Screeche's and Violet's.
I'm 50 and French Canadian, I love Ren and I think you're a great reactor! Thanks for that!
Thank you so much! Comments like yours are the reason I keep going
Your reaction to this was absolutely beautiful ❤
I loved the Three Count there at the end while your mind was spinning trying to realize what Ren said about the twins. Well done.
One thing that I've always noticed, is that both Jenny and Screeches Tales end with the line, "It's such a shame". One way to look at this is as the indifference of society to these sort of things. We've all hear or read a news story about someone being killed and we think, "oh, that's a shame", and life goes on, nothing changes.
I came back to this video after watching your Sickboi reaction and getting a message saying the vid was deleted. My first comment on this video is gone, the like I left is also gone. UA-cam be acting up or something. Anyway, much love from 🇨🇦
Watching again for your numbers
Your empathetic response is the strongest one I have seen of screech…. Yes, people talked about how sad the situation is… and it is… but the way you slice through and share you connection and interpretation…. I love it…. Also, this is what blew me away.. it was like a 1 man play… deserving of the highest accolades. The new thing I was thinking thanks to your comment on the aged sound. I totally agree.. there’s a timelessness to it… which lead me to a bit deeper on why this feels so timeless.. I think it’s the marriage of the traveling minstrel with his songs of tales going city to city to make a living once upon a time…. So his walking around brings that impression… but also… the use of classical guitar mixed with modern day poetry/rap… so the combo makes this a timeless piece… everything about these tales i love… the continuous shot, live performance … just wow… I’m excited to watch you experience this… this was me like 6 months ago.
Glad to be part of the Tre Den!
Seriously, your attitude is so fucking refreshing!!!! Your looks of amazement when it comes to our Boi are bliss to witness my guy.
KuGuapo is a new love too!!!! The family is coming together.
Man! I was saying in my head please rewind and listen the whole way through! Would have loved to see your reaction when you realize that they are brother and sister! But still another great reaction! Keep it up!
PS I want more. 😊
I came back to see the ending. I was watching when it just went blank and no video available. I figured you figured it out. ♥
THis is the one., Enjoy the Reniverse
Welcome Renegade. All the love fam
Money games 1,2,3. How to be me, Chalk Outlines, Hunger, Animal Flow. You can't go wrong reacting to any of Ren's music.
Animal Flow ❤
@@PlymouthLad76 haha, thank you. Mom brain!!
Came for your reactions of Ren. Subbed because of your respect and humbleness.
Great video, enjoying your ride with Ren so far. There’s SO MUCH - keep going!! ❤
I'm a 57 yr old gen x'er and definitely not a rap fan , but Ren is an amazing artist and I'm a fan of everything he does .
This is one of the most beautifully heartfelt and empathic reactions. You really needn't apologise for tearing up, nor should you hold them back. I'm sure I speak for many Renegades when I say that a lot of us have. Myself included.
Keep doing what you are doing, continue being true to yourself. Ren has somehow managed to take us all on it, in all it's intricately self-reflective ways. Most of us have done this within our daily lives and watched how it's beauty manifests itself within us and in our worlds. It's a pleasure watching you, an obviously kind hearted young man discovering it. Thank you so much for sharing these intimate moments.
Peace, brother.😊
Great reaction ❤. Just so you know, we as Renegades don't care how long the video is. We love to hear reactors work through Rens lyrics to catch what he is saying, even if you have to rewind and watch it over again. We love that aha moment on the reactions
Hey man, don't sweat the length of a genuine reaction vid. I watch these to connect with the world. I would have loved to listen to you talk it out while your thoughts were cooking! I had the biggest grin when you were putting the pieces together! ❤
Tonight is the first time I’ve watched your channel. I’m a 55 yr old female and I love music! I just kind of ran into REN while watching reaction videos and was completely blown away! He is truly like no other artist I’ve ever heard. I love to watch people react to Hi Ren because it’s simply genius. It’s so unusual it catches you off guard! You had a new subscriber in like 5 minutes! You’ve got really good energy! I’m excited to watch some of your other reactions and can not wait for The Money Game reaction!!! Keep it up! ✌🏼
I've heard somebody say it was a trumpet. That falls right in line with what you were saying about 1940's soundin'.
What a beautiful soul you are... You showed so much empathy throughout this reaction and I just had to comment to tell you that it's ok to cry.... In fact as a man it's important you know that your tears are just as valid as any woman's.... Anyone who says different is part of the problem.
Renegades love Ren because he's able to create music and space for us to connect to difficult topics and emotions in ways that just speak to our souls.... He puts my emotions into words for me and that means I feel less alone in them
The Renegades will continue to find you and support you... Don't ever apologise for being you and bring authentic in your feelings.... We're here for it. ❤
Glad you realised it was in a weird resolution 😂
Ill watch this again later as the first was deleted.
Watching the realization at the end had me tearing up with you. Everything seen writes is so visceral and intentional. The heartbreak is real.
No need to apologize. Ren brings the emotions to the forefront. Loved you're reaction and your willingness to dig into the back information. Keep doing what you do.
Your reactions....you reflect my own feelings so much and every time I watch it it reminds me of that awe of seeing Ren for the first time.
Thank you so much ❤
Naw man I appreciate the long videos and all your thoughts on the subject matter. Please don’t apologize for taking your time to process things and get your thoughts out, it’s what I love about watching a reaction video to Ren, or any artist I enjoy. Could see this hit hard. Hit me hard too, everyone I hear it, it hits a little deeper. Appreciate your genuineness and empathy towards the violent cycle people get caught up in or born into. Take care man ❤️
Well, I'm not 80, but I am a 51 year old Ren fan who found your page through these reactions
I'm now also a Treactionz fan, your personality is just magnetic!
Generational trauma, History repeats
Please never apologize for the length of a video. Us renegades LOVE when people discover this journey we are all taking through ren. I wont speak for everyone but i will speak for myself, i would watch you for over an hour as you break this down and make all the realizations you get. Its the magic of Ren. He is such a welsh bard, you can tell why kings were scared of them, they could take down kingdoms by the spread of their tales. So please ask those questions, answer them yourself as they come to you with us or wait for comments. We love you and love the message you are helping Ren spread. You are a true renegade through and through.
Hey thanks for a great reaction 👍❤
It's totally okay to tear up at such a brutal topic. "We must not forget that we are human beings". Lots of us teared up at the first listen and/or still do so.
47 years old in Australia, good to meet you 😊 looking forward to seeing more Ren reactions as I know you will love his hip hop tracks
It's hard to give criticism when your reactions are so well done. You're thoughtful, authentic and honest as far as I can tell. So many of us appreciate those qualities. And your sound and video quality are GREAT! (I know this is a reload but still). Keep on keepin on...and please don't forget...YOU'RE A HUMAN....BEING.
I'm 58 and can't get enough Ren. Reaction vids fill the void till the next drop. Your reactions are raw and precious. So glad i found you.
Love your reactions to one of my favorite artists living today. You are in for such a journey, he is not a one trick pony either, he cannot be contained or pigeon holed into a certain genre of music, but his own, unique blend of everything.As people have called his craft, he is Bard-core, which does encapsulate his talent.
I don’t think I’m gonna pause this one too much - immediately pauses LOL. that’s what we love, REN changing the reaction in real time.
Your reaction is so heartfelt. I cried. The creativity is unmatched.
This is such a hard hitting one ,and your reaction and emotions show that so clearly ❤ it is incredible and you just showed us that , love your reaction, you are such a great reactor 😊
For something lighter from Ren try back in 74 live ,he s so good ,and this show s his vocals off so well .
Also Ren and Chinchilla, chalk outlines, it's beautiful ❤
Really great reaction. Looking forward to more ❤❤
You are an amazing reactor and I am a 52 year old Ren fanatic. Your approach to his music is genius.
Amazing reaction...God bless you
You are such an empathetic reactor! These songs hit mighty hard. Of course we’d watch a 32 min video!!
Take care, and continue to enjoy your journey into the Reniverse! 🥰
You have such a wonderful energy and your thoughtful reactions have been a delight. Your southern level of ‘bless your heart’ pettiness made me grin.😂
Just another angle on Patrick's call to his girlfriend-- you commented "Oh, the poor kid, he's really scared" (or something to that effect). I'd suggest that while it's true Ren was showing that, but he was also showing how violent-tempered, hair-trigger and manipulative he was, even at 14.
If you have occasion to listen to the song again with this in mind, I think you'll see it too, and appreciate this other level Ren adds with just a single line...that single switch Patrick makes from cajoling and sweet to vicious and attacking. Part of Ren's genius for painting a character...
And...love your reactions, for reasons I've already mentioned in previous comments. I subbed from the first one I watched, which was "Hi Ren" (which was the one I initially came here for.
That’s a fantastic point, Alice! I actually see what you mean. It all comes out in his words to his gf. Good stuff
Yep, 72yo Ren-egade here. Pretty obsessed in fact. Thank you for your reactions to this extraordinary artist.
The moment the penny dropped for me that Violet was the mother of Jenny and Screech was sheer grief and disbelief. Master storyteller that he is, it's so REAL!! I could see you trying to process that too. If Ren doesn't deserve the description "the real deal" I don't know who does.
I am hooked on your reactions, man. That gasp at the end, when you “got it” and had to end, lost for words.
I would definitely watch a 32+ minute video from you, any day. Your insight (and empathy) is lovely. Just what Ren is aiming for, I believe.
I've watched so many reactions to this song and you the only person with the emotional intelligence to understand all of the song. We in the same boat. Thanks for putting this review out to the world. I hope more people watch it.
And this is exactly what music is supposed to do. Hits the heart, gets the brain moving and brings emotion to the forefront. Awesome reactions
You’ve quickly become my favorite reactor. Thank you for your thoughtful insights.
Always amazing to watch reactions to Rens genius; and his buddy Sam for his great camerawork. 😊
I am convinced the fast guitar run at the beginning of Screeches tale is to get our hearts pumping; like screech's heart is in his panic after he f'd up. So genius. 🔥
It's a powerful social commentary that needs to be addressed in so many areas. We are failing those victims of domestic violence, generational trauma, and the broken systems everywhere that fail the innocent children caught in the middle.
