Both Ren and Chinchilla have commented that from the time they met, they were like siblings, understanding each other's performances and humor. You would enjoy their collab I Forgot How to be Me - another extraordinary song, and vocally very different.

[@IronRaspberry]

“How To Be Me”

[@ancltube]

The live version.

[@fayebarbary4748]

Definitely the live version!

[@YoreHistory]

Yep she is him in female form and he her in male form. They compliment each other so well. I would so go to a concert of them, Ren and her solo and Great Push...2 hours of Bliss...

[@manuelper]

@@YoreHistory She's great, but Ren is more versatile and a superior lyricist/songwriter.

[@DandelionCollab]

How to be Me (Live) with Chinchilla needs to be in your queue. One thing that makes this piece catch your heart is that they are not listening/matching each other. They are each singing WITH the other with their being. It gets captured here and is captivating. Thanks for letting us be moved with you.

[@Jamedalamus]

I wish I could upvote this 100+times.

[@majyy]

YES!

[@sjd7810]

Have to agree! The dynamism between the two of them, the intimacy and without doubt the tonality is jaw dropping

[@Rosiepooh75]

"How to be Me" is another stellar collab between these two amazing artists. I am certain you'd love it! The live versions mean he may do a few takes, but the version you see is a one-take live vocal performance.

[@chillasslofi8962]

Just came down here to say exactly that.

[@9madness9]

Live version ofc

[@9madness9]

Just finish and hell yah can't wait to see your reaction the production and lyrics is so haunting.

[@Rosiepooh75]

@@9madness9 definitely the live version! 😁

[@ksenss2513]

Chinchilla: Fingers live, absolutely!

[@peterdobos1606]

Fingers - live Chinchilla She is a phenomenal singer. You're welcome.

[@darrenraffan7804]

This!

[@catherinerobbins3887]

Up cause oh yessss. The godess chinchilla can sanggg

[@infinitenumberofmonkeys3738]

Can't agree more. If you thought this was great, How To Be Me live and Fingers Live for hungertv will blow your mind.

[@iamlpinthe312]

A thousand times YES!!!!

[@needsomeink]

Cold Water too

[@Proud.American58]

If you really want to be moved by Ren and Chinchilla, check out their song “How to be Me”(Live)

[@evilfantasy69]

Chinchilla - Fingers (Live for HungerTV) would be a great reaction.

[@BrandonWestfall]

Finally. You’ll lose your mind if you hear him performing War Pigs or I Shot the Sheriff with his band The Big Push. Ren doesn’t miss.

[@Mickee2605]

And pick this version...I shot the sheriff/road to zion/hiphop... that's my favourite 🤘😎

[@karllines2952]

Ooh yeah, How To Bé Me or Fingers live, both well worth thé time spent listening.

[@paddyhiggins]

Chinchilla - FINGERS Live For HungerTV...... Her voice and performance in this are just stunning.

[@leegilbert]

Here here … she’s an incredible independent artist and finger (live) is one of my fav songs of all time.

[@Cunning.Stunt7]

💯 its Mind blowing 🤯

[@user-qx5yb3gb1n]

Yeah it is absolutely amazing.

[@Taratara-uc8pn]

These 2 are great together - for stunning stripped back vocals from CHINCHILLA - FINGERS LIVE HUNGER TV - is sensational ❤

[@benmiller7231]

Thank you for doing this reaction Beth! I would love to watch you break down Chinchilla on one of her solo pieces! Specifically, 'Fingers Live for HungerTV'. This song is an amazing showcase of Chinchilla's gorgeous vocals, range and skill! Everything I've heard her sing is amazing in it's own right to be honest. Thanks again for reacting to Ren and Chinchilla! Can't wait for the next one!

[@Marina-Gee]

I concur 🤗 😁

[@MrMattf727]

please please watch them sing How To Be Me (live) it's another amazing performance showing their dynamics together

[@ElWray8]

Chinchilla is a spirit. The lights flickering was her drawing energy so she could manifest and sing a haunting song with Ren.

[@smrtsvta]

You need to react to the How to Be Me live performance. I love these two so much and that performance just makes me cry everytime.

[@iandavison3704]

How to be me LIVE is a must ..ive never felt a duet done so emotionally like this song

[@Erfedwe]

Beth, great reaction and analysis. You make a great point about the rawness and imperfection at the end. If this had been clean and perfect, you would lose much of the emotion and impact. It is the imperfection that made it perfect. I hope you do more Ren and more Chinchilla.

[@mikemccord72]

I found Ren in mid January. I honestly have no idea why he isnt mainstream yet. So much talent.

[@lindsayheywood7195]

Ren oozes talent - his voice, his expressive guitar playing,his lyrics, his melodies and his performance. Like nothing I've seen in years. The reason I think he is not mainstream is his songs are not upbeat in their message. They dwell on unpleasant things and and there are many people who don't want to listen to that kind of music. I am not one of them - his music is wonderful, never mind the message.

[@Covaids]

The mainstream music industry only want soulless,clueless generic stooges who they can screw over and then throw away when they are no longer useful.

[@JonNo86]

Unfortunately…or fortunately, depending on how you look at it, he refuses to sign to a major label where they have major distributing and marketing power. He would be a household name overnight if there was an entire marketing team working around the clock to make it happen. However, he refuses to sign to a major label because he refuses to change who he is or his music to fit into that mainstream. Plus he said in a recent interview that he actually doesn’t care about becoming rich or famous he just wants to live comfortably and put his art into the world for people to enjoy.

[@neiladdison4457]

Same. I was put on to Hi Ren in December as it really started to take off. I'm listening to his music all the time now and can't help but think it's only a matter of time before he gets huge. It's not like we're listening to a couple of decent tracks or something... His back catalogue is massive and so varied. There is so much to explore. I wouldn't usually listen to much in the way of rap music but even that stuff is compelling due to the story telling in there.

[@cody2oo]

How to be me live with them is also amazing. Chinchillas elements lyric video is a fun one and then her fingers live will set the bar for you going forward when it comes to singers.

[@iamlpinthe312]

This is especially haunting when Chinchilla’s voice sounds like cries towards the end. They are very in sync but still distinguishable and distinct. How To Be Me is a vocal pas de deux more than a duet. Their voices sort of swirl around one another almost like smoke. It’s crushingly beautiful.

[@patdriver9635]

Oh, he knowsss. 😊 And choosing the space with acoustic is one of his skills. Especially evident in The Tales of Jenny Screech and Violet.

[@jonasmandersson]

Thanks as always for an interesting reaction! I’m not the first to say this, but it would be superb to see a reaction to ”How to be me” live with Ren and Chinchilla. I would also be super stoked to see your take on Chinchillas ”Fingers” live version.

[@kylefrandsen2665]

I love the rawness and admire the courage of doing these live recordings as the main video rather than an obscure "unplugged" version. Having seen a couple interviews with Ren and Chinchilla, they describe each other as artistic siblings and I love all of their duets.

[@tribute1965]

Independent artists like Ren and Chinchilla need exposure on big channels like this. Thank you! Plus, their vocals are amazing, and your breakdown of technique is always very interesting.

[@tyghe_bright]

Now check out Chinchilla's performance Fingers (live). It really shows her wild skill and it's FIERCE. Best video (IMO) for Ren's vocal skill (and is much more playful) is probably him with Sam Tompkins busking, doing Earned it /Mans World / Falling

[@GavinEarnshaw]

This is by far my favourite Ren & Chinchilla song. As many will comment, the song hits those of us who have delt with severe pain over time and depression. But it is still uplifting. I play it when I'm having a bad day and feel better for a while. Thanks Beth for reacting to this.

[@clivemortimore8203]

Hi Gavin, I fully agree. Ren puts into words how my life has been, but this song is so well put together that the subject matter doesn't make me feel bad. I too feel good after listening to it, a wonderful song.

[@patcow9999]

Brilliant analysis as always, Beth. A natural progression from this will be their How To Be Me, which is once again, live. It is an amazing song and performance.

[@maddermax74]

you realy need to check out Ren X Chinchilla - How To Be Me (live) to hear a master piece and some amazing harmonics between these too

[@saltydroog854]

There's quite a few videos of Ren and Chinchilla busking together, so they likely have quite a bit of time singing together. For some reason when she says "Sertraline and a sip of serotonin" it get's me every time. I've probably heard this 100 times, and someone is always cutting onions.

[@mikemccord72]

Because its how some of us feel every day.

[@thetalantonx]

@@mikemccord72 Yep. Half my life now, an SSRI or SNRI.

[@zachhenderson7982]

So glad to see you do this. "How to be me" (live) with them is amazing. Both Ren and chinchilla are amazing artists

[@joed7691]

I love how you described their vocals like two people who have met and have a shared experience sung in their own way but in this beautiful symmetry. ❤

[@ChristopherRobertHills]

You need to hear him and Chinchilla doing a song called How To Be Me (live version), incredible collab lyrics and vocals on a song about a friend he had who lost due to suicide, every song in his catalogue in all different genres has never ceased to amaze me, he is what is making music relevant and interesting again, i hope you keep going down the Ren rabbit hole, once i did...i just enjoyed my stay there.

[@thgeremilrivera-thorsen9556]

Yeeeeeessss! If you want to see the full power of the beast that is Chinchilla, check out her live version of "Fingers".

[@Melly01]

Throwing in my vote for, "How To Be Me," (Live, Ren & Chinchilla). I think you'd also be interested in the complete uniqueness of, "Fingers" (Live for Hunger TV), which is Chinchilla solo with a piano. It is something I'd love to hear your thoughts on. Two very special, unique pieces. As always, I love your thoughts. ❤

[@Erik-ik3bc]

My stray suggestion out of Rens collection would be "Humble (Feat. Eden Nash)". It showcases another facet of his voice and instead of hitting hard in the watery eyed feels, sooths and makes you feel all fuzzy inside.

[@ancltube]

Yes, Humble is a great song.

[@yonahgrossman7319]

I have to jump on the bandwagon here. "How To Be Me" and "Fingers" live by Chinchilla will both knock you out, then "I Shot the Sheriff" by Ren and The Big Push, where his voice is almost unrecognizable from these, but STUNNING. Loved your reaction!

[@ancltube]

There are at least three versions of The Big Push doing that song. The one you want is the "I Shot the Sheriff/Road to Zion/Hip Hop" one, with Ren in red braces.

[@yonahgrossman7319]

@@ancltube Yep. That's the one I was thinking of. Thanks.

[@neilbradley3146]

How to be Me - Live is a must listen, a whole different level of amazing!

[@danielmeola3651]

Thanks for going after this, for more of both, How to be me, and chinchilla by her own , fingers live for hunger tv.

[@wintermoonomen]

I've been holding my breath as to when you would react to Ren's music and hooray! I've watched both that you've done and I especially love the breakdown I'm techniques!

[@triggerhappysound]

I'll add the hundredth comment suggesting the live version of How To Be Me by Ren and Chinchilla. As good as this one is, that one gives me insane goosebumps every time. Also, as others have also mentioned, Chinchilla's solo stuff is excellent, and the version of Fingers Live for HungerTV is not only good but really interesting in the way she delivers the words vocally.

[@Esmio06]

When she hits that high now I'm the harmony (?) I cry everytime. Just wow

[@salishseamermaid]

I would love love love to see you reaction to Chinchilla's performance of her sing Fingers, the live for Hunger TV version. She is SO creative with her voice!

[@MichaelCRush]

Excellent! Now you are ready for How To Be Me (Live).

[@aquariusgarfield9774]

Do Ren x Chinchilla - how to be me please

[@NOLAgenX]

I saw another person who interviewed Chinchilla. She said this was indeed one take and they really didn’t rehearse it all the way through. Just parts. They basically are so in tune they sang off each other in this recording. Pretty amazing.

[@davidricks7128]

That's what is special about Ren's music and that is the fact its "His Truth" from his lifetime

[@martinamcgrath]

Please please do Chinchillas 'fingers' live version, you'll be blown away!

[@Ephergie]

I would like to add my voice to the calls for a reaction to Ren & Chinchilla's "How To Be Me [Live]". Get the tissues ready - I'm a 58 year old bloke and I cry every time I hear it... the emotion, the harmonies, the lyrics, the sentiment. Simply Beautiful.

[@PortaPooper]

When you're constantly fighting, both physically and emotionally, the struggle to feel better is always an up hill battle. Pills will numb you to everything for just a while but at a cost. You're not you. You're numb. On the days where you feel "fine", you're so worried about that mindset changing that you can't focus on the day you could be having. It's a helpless, turbulent cycle. Please don't forget to take care of yourselves.

[@viracocha03]

Im a 38 year old man and this song ALWAYS brings a tear to my eye. "How To Be Me (live)" by the both of them is even more soul touching.

[@junction6_m27VNC]

Rens lyrics conjure up such vivid pictures in your mind, what a beautiful song

[@timgrodesky4694]

Nothing is better than a song of truth-good or bad-he delivers his truth with such conviction and lyrical strength that can't be ignored. This duet is superb! Her raised vocal at the end there breaks my heart everytime. What a great pairing!!

[@troytucker3467]

I am placing this with my daughter. Thank you. We absolutely love you.

[@andrewellington9503]

I agree with you regarding his lyrics. The lyrics in all of his songs are so simple and so powerful and brilliant at the same time. He never fails to impact your emotions on every song.

[@craigmcnamee]

Yes! :D So excited for this. "How to be me" is amazing, also.

[@naosmo]

I had lyricism once, stepped in it, now I can't speak. these two voices know more than can be said. listen

[@odochartaighofodonegal2351]

REN is a portal to another musical universe, and a modern day Pied Piper. Artistically brilliant and a peach of a human.

[@mldkenny]

Love your reactions and this song for me is up there with my all time favourite performances. There are so many wonderful tracks to hear, but like many others would suggest, How To Be Me , Drunk in Love by them both and Chinchilla doing Fingers Live is honestly a MUST.

[@docdurdin]

Hi Beth, I have you on my play list.. Great voice.. You will for sure run into Chinchilla, she is amazing and well known in the UK.

[@jesseashmore8426]

The fact that they can do this in one take is mind blowing. I love how Ren's voice cracks at the end and they just leave it in there.

[@ramhaille]

Chinchilla Fingers (Live) should definitely be on your list. It shows what she is vocally capable off and she is a powerhouse

[@shannonstradford6518]

I truly enjoyed your comments on this song … I particularly liked when you said it reminds you of when you meet someone new but you both have so much in common… it’s like you are both saying “yes me too” … thank you for this reaction video Peace ❤❤❤❤

[@Scotty_S29]

Great reaction. If you enjoyed this one the I’m sure you would love “how to be me” Live. Keep it up

[@AndyLongden]

You should listen to chinchilla's: fingers. (If you haven't already) very powerful voice. Also her and Ren: how to be me. Is just as amazing.

[@8dayssooner]

Something I found interesting on this track was when Chris Liepe did his reaction he pointed out Ren taking influence from Jeff Buckley in the way he sings. Ren later commented on that video to say that he used to use Chris’ videos on how Jeff Buckley sang to learn how to sing! You definitely need to check out their other main collab “How To Be Me” though as well as “Fingers (Live)” by Chinchilla

[@8dayssooner]

(It’s also worth noting that there are studio version of both this and How To Be Me, but the live KZbin versions are the better, more raw versions in the eye of many

Woohoo! I'm so glad you listened to the suggestions by many and did this video. The lyrics are so deep and impactful and yet there's an almost hopeful, uplifting feel to the last part of the song.

[@woodywoodman2319]

How to be Me is another Must do!!! Also... for Singing in his band The Big Push... See English man in New York, Praise You and Bongo Bong!!! Live videos shows his skills singing and playing other instruments!!! Must Dos for Rens Catalog for ya!!!

[@bboollll]

me and my buddy share this song, if we need and find it correct we share it together and time later after over n over listening we settle in and are done for the time being. there is tons to dissect when it comes to song build and such but for me n buddy its lyrics, so we share it together and keep at it till it eases up together. Ren and Chinchilla is doing great vocal work. putting very much emotion into the text and music. they arent singing a pre-written song by someone they are singing lyrics they know and mean. "been there, done that" situation. they been involved in situation so they can put the emotions into it. not just say the words but mean them.

[@jenniferpaul1832]

Hi Beth, thank you for reviewing this song. Not only is it a wonderful performance by both Ren and X Chinchilla but Ren puts into words how my life has been for nearly 50 years. "I'm still here in this bed that I crawled in, I hope I am someone else in the morning" that is me. Any how, it is such a wonderful performance, like most of Ren's and X Chinchilla's music, I can sit back and just enjoy the brilliance of the song without delving deep into the subject matter.

[@Phazetic99]

Thank you for doing this. I found your channel about a year or so ago and I appreciate how you break down the technical aspects of singing. I know nothing about the art of singing but I learn so much from your reaction videos. When I found Ren in January, I wanted to know if what I was hearing was as good as I thought it was, from a technical side, and I really wanted to hear your reaction to it. I even sent you an email asking for one haha. Your reaction never came and I thought maybe you did hear it and didn't want to say anything bad, because I don't know what I'm hearing. I'm glad you do seem to appreciate it too, and I did recognize the quality of the songs. On a side note, I have since discovered that there are a lot of song reaction channels. I didn't know there were so many. I still like your break downs. Thank you

[@Veeliscious]

So glad you analysed this one, perfect one for you especially to break down. Loved what you said about how their singing in harmony but slightly differently told their own "me too" story from their own perspectives- that was a great way to convey it. Would love you to react to their other powerful live collaboration next "How to be Me" (written after the suicide of Ren's best friend and sung, I understand, on the bridge that Joe jumped from)
