    Watching Ash's face go from joy and fun to serious staring during Jenny's track is so telling of how masterfully Ren controls the viewer's/listener's emotions.

    Crutch, Dominoes, Dear God, Depression, Insomnia, Freckled Angels, Penitence ,Do you believe ,Hold on
    Are all powerful songs by Ren that you have not reacted to yet.

    it was sweet that you were able to get some laughs out of your system at the start...
    cuz wow we all knew there wasn't gonna be laughter afterwards. This one is haunting and tragic.
    His lyrical poetry throughout these performances are just superlative. Combine that
    with the planning out of locations to use natural acoustics and the environment for the story,
    and Ren is truly the master of his own genre of performance art. (notice, all three are one shots)

  • @ryderjohnson1293

    Ren somehow transforms his pain into art. And quite beautifully, full stop.

    Through interviews of both Ren and Samuel Im confident I can say they just have a genuine symmetry with each other but they are also both huge perfectionists so they will put in every bit of effort need to get that one perfect result. They even said they took a total of 183 takes for one of their videos. I can’t remember if it was Money Game pt. 1 or Genesis

    A couple things often over looked (hidden subtext):
    1. Jenny was a teenage prostitute, that’s why she was in high heeled shoes and had walked the that street 1000 times before…
    2. Screech’s girlfriend and his boy Patrick were cheating on him, that’s why there was no answer at Patrick’s place and his girlfriend was “busy”…

    • @jbart4183
      @jbart4183 4 місяці тому +1

      3. and violet is pregnant before she met stevie from the line, "she moved out at sixteen, a semi-detached council flat, paid by welfare scheme" means the government is paying children when they get pregnant.
      4. and violet got pregnant by her dad, so jenny and screech dad was their own grandpa from the line, "every night he tucked her tight but never left the room. I spare you with the details, I'm sure her mother knew." Probably explains why Stevie is mad at Violet because he realized the twin's wasn't his, explains the lines Stevie said "why you lying to me violet?" so with no regard to the welfare of the kids, he beats Violet to death.

      @@jbart4183 That's a stretch, 16 year olds can also be removed and put in welfare flats when they are abused at home. Why are you lying to me Violet can also be pretending to be asleep. every night he tucked her in and history repeats itself probably means the cycle of violence where victims often seek out relationships that are similar to bad situationships at home. I'm not saying you're wrong I am just saying it's a stretch and there are others explainations.

    OMG. Okay, two things: y’all are the first reacters I’ve seen mention “lady shaped stalactite”… and it’s one of my favorite lines.
    Most of all tho… I just came from your Chinchilla Fingers reactions. I had commented about the levels of emotion in Ash’s eyes while watching that. Seeing your face during Jenny’s Tale makes me worry about whether or not proper warning was given regarding Violets Tale. I don’t know you, obviously. But as a survivor myself, IT. WAS.. ROUGH my first time hearing it. And the 2nd. And the 3rd. Haha. It’s always rough. I think it’s really difficult for most women in general.
    It’s BRILLIANT and genius and it does so much good to be told. I’ve seen it start some very real and very necessary, needed conversations regarding generational trauma and violence. It raises awareness, certainly. But that doesn’t necessarily make it easier.
    Anyway, I’m rambling. Just nervous. 🌹

      Uh...yeah..how did you think this worked??? A lot of these reaction channels do a whole week of recordings, then upload them all at the end of the week or over the course of a few days. At the very least, the upload is a couple days after the recording. This aint real time unless you're watching a live stream.
      Why?
      Editing...if they're making money on it they want it to look and sound good for you.
      But even "no script off the rip" has to prep a video for upload...and then have time for the upload.
      Stop going to a steak house and then pissing about it taking more than 5 minutes to make your meal.

    This is a VERY SAD tale; But, what I LOVE the MOST about "The Tale of Jenny and Screech" is that in the end it points out that Jenny and Screech were siblings. Christ teaches us that we all brothers and sisters. That we are divine spiritual beings in mortal bodies. We should treat each other as such. Jenny and Screech grew up in the foster system so that they didn't know they were siblings. But, if were taught like we should be taught that we are ALL BROTHER and SISTERS! That is the way we should ALL treat each other! This is what I like about this song. Hopefully, one day we will all know this. 🙂❤🙏

    I'll be honest, I'm expecting this to be a difficult one, after the reaction to the Bill Burr video about hitting women. This entire series stands as an important work that not only discusses the often taboo topic of DA, but also is capable of drawing the listener in and MAKING them experience of what he's performing, because in most cases people don't consider the gravity of the subject. Many survivors of DA have spoken up about how important it is to them to bring this to the table, and that many say they 'felt seen' again. Reading through the many comments of many reactors to this trilogy, you'll find incredible stories of healing, connection, and growth of people from all demographics, ages, and sexes due to the Tales. Ren is truly a phenomenon.
