What makes a perfect performance? It's not perfection... That's for sure. It's ENGAGEMENT and EMOTION... And INTERACTION!
This precious piece of art immerses you in so many familiar emotions, you're not quite sure what to do with yourself after you've gone through the experience with your leaders, Ren & Chinchilla.
I continue to be blown away Ren and his music. In this video we also get to analyze certain sections of what's going on vocally and gain a better understanding of how we can infuse our own voices with inspiration... With the help of Ren and Chinchilla!
Enjoy with me!!

[@chinchilla_music]

Just wanted to say thank you for this reaction and support, made me so happy to watch and I found it so interesting. All the love !!! 🫶🫶🫶💓💓🥰

[@chrisliepe]

You’re so very welcome!! You two have amazing musical chemistry and it is beyond inspiring to watch and listen to the work you do together! I just finished a video on “How To Be Me” and it should be up next week :) …Another fantastic performance!

[@badders3000]

[@ShodaVision888]

Congrats Chinchilla for your touching, moving, beautiful act of generosity.

[@naturalwhitch]

If you want to see Rens capabilities in character switching live, then 'the tale of Jenny and Screech (full)' is a masterclass. It is a longer video but a wonderful storytelling experience

[@SocialMediaFBIAgent]

I like how Chris takes singing that would just sound like singing to the average person, but he takes it apart and breaks it down into bite-sized information for all of us. He really shows us how good Ren is, and how good he is at vocal analysis. Can we just take a moment to appreciate Chris?

[@Youlookeddidntyou]

This is to say thanks for this reaction and for you to check out Ren Chinchilla “how to be me” you will go crazy, cant wait to see your analysis (edited to confirm the live version is the one) thank you to those who called that out.

Glad you enjoyed it!

Oh my goodness...Ren and Chinchilla is so good!! ...I have become a HUGE HUGE fan overnight !!! Reaction =🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥

[@BallisticAero]

One of the biggest struggles in life is being alone and waking up okay just to feel literally guilty for having a good day. Like you don't deserve it. Some crushing stuff, but Ren's music is pretty life saving tbh

[@chrisliepe]

Agreed

being alone is the best. if you have to wake up and need someone you're crazy!

[@karenflowers9611]

[@adam.4487]

Ren also with Chinchilla please listen to How To Be Me live. You'll go crazy going through that one. :)

[@DocHogan]

When those two get face to face, eye to eye, and start feeding off each other's energy and feeding it back to each other... they are an INCREDIBLE duet pairing. It feels like...I dunno... if Janis and Eddie Vedder performed together

[@DocHogan]

And, of course, I post that comment _immediately _ before you go down that same train of thought 😅

[@ETHEREALFrequency11]

Wow!!! Chris!!!! I You are influencing so many singers with your amazingness wealth of applicable knowledge in an easy to understand and inspirational way like no other.

[@Sonnymonster]

Hi Ren has made me understand twenty one years of battling clinical depression better than a host of doctors, psychologists and councillors ever did! The tears literally flowed like salt water when the monologue arrived at the end❤️ This song is up there with Bohemian Rhapsody IMO👍

[@mabo9352]

Ren X Chinchilla "How to be Me" is ANOTHER beautiful duet!!!! Great reaction!

[@migslayerdb]

I watch sooooooo many reactors and my dude your great ! I can't wait for more REN and NF 💪

[@loadedorygun]

Also Buckley-ish: the vulnerability and pain that makes it sound like he’s literally dying in front of you and he’s hoping you’ll take this message to his family. The strength and control in his voice makes some really tender, low-power fade outs that maintain vibrato all the way through and peter out roughly but beautifully.

[@margaretc5679]

I already knew I loved it. I knew it was an exceptional performance. Thank you for revealing the details that I couldn't name, but definitely felt!

[@ShearedJoy]

It’s like she’s reaching for him, feelings as pointed as those fingernails, he’s shaking his head, understands but troubled, empathetic, she backs away

[@shazza175]

Thank you so much for this breakdown. My friend and I have been working on singing this one and those close harmonies are REALLY challenging. I'm not even trying to perfectly replicate what Chinchilla is doing, but even getting in the same ballpark is not easy. So much respect for the technical aspects of what on surface seems like quite a simple tune.

[@tcf_iceland]

This song is so amazing, it took me listening several times before I could pay notice to the lyrics. Ren is wonderful and Chinchilla is AMAZING ❤

[@CasperLD]

I found Ren a month ago, in finding Ren I found your channel which I'm loving. Now I'm finding you and Ren communicating......I love it. I want so badly for Ren to come out of this treatment feeling great. I'm not even joking I'll fly 3000 miles to see him perform live either by himself of his band. He is an incredible artist that has pulled me back into the deep love of music that I thought was lost somewhere at the end of the 90s. I'm playing guitar, writing and singing again. He is a true inspiration. This song like so many of his song resonates with me on a deep, deep level. Thanks for your amazing content. Was just watch your breakdown on Kurt Cobains voice and I love how much nuances you go into.

[@violetcastro421]

You get it! First time watching you and I love your interpretation of this video with such genuine feeling. And how could you not. I get the chills or end up crying every time I watch it. REN and Chinchilla definitely get lost in there music.❤❤❤

[@tweedz4356]

I love to refer to Rens voice as, perfectly imperfect. So much passion and story telling, it's so beautiful and perfect for his messages. I love him.

[@Tessimistic420]

❤️👍

[@HectorRasquinho]

And he could do it "perfectly" in a studio setup with all sorts of post-production. But it just wouldn't be the same. Great part of what is connecting in his songs are these so called "imperfections" that carry an almost cry-ish tone, which makes a lot of sense with the lyrics

[@strongbad79]

Agree. I prefer vocals with a little rawness. Nowadays I feel like most artists just auto-tune the crap out of everything and all of the soul and humanity is drained from it..

[@jamesmika7497]

Very strong and nice reaction from you! Full of information and knowledge. Thank you Chris and thank you Ren for this song !

[@CaraHillVoiceoverArtist]

Just found out who Ren is and have been binge watching reaction videos. This was the most enjoyable and knowledgeable explanation. Wow! I didn't realize all that was going on in their voices. Can't stop singing this now. Thank you! 🤗😃

[@andrewjacksonmusic]

You have no idea how happy this makes me, two of my favourite and inspiring educators and performers meeting virtually. This is my favourite of Rena songs and this version alway makes me cry, with the emotion, performance and writing from both Ren and chinchilla. Ren has an amazing voice but you can tell he has come from a character inspired learning method rather than the “normal” way. I so hope you get a chance to work with Ren in the future.

[@AlSnoopsReid]

Ren's mother is a singing/voice coach!!

[@BrianC1664]

And if I'm not mistaken his father is a therapist/psychiatrist, so it makes sense he can sing so well, and can articulate and trigger emotions and the human condition so well.

[@AllenLendzion]

This video is sSOOO freaking powerful. The scene makes me picture 2 in-patient individuals supporting each other as they are suffering to their demons. Holding each other up and building off of each other. I love the storytelling through body language and the lyrics.

[@larrycohen5553]

Putting aside his gifts, the amount of work and attention to detail in Ren is colossal.

[@AliCatzRR]

Ren is an GOAT and this song by both Ren and Chinchilla is one of the best songs I have ever heard and is in my mind, a it stands in terms of favorites of all time it is left only competing with other Ren Tunes which I literally cant pick a favorite from. He is just so inanely talented its unreal!

[@verslehaut1664]

You know it's much more than a song when you get the goosebump... it touches the soul, it's speak to our humanity.

[@StanCarles]

Chris, your enthusiasm is infectious, every time I listen to and watch this music video I am awestruck by the passion in Ren X Chinchilla's performance. It moves me! They deliver everything I could hope to experience.

[@arnienymous]

just found them last night and ur reaction is by far the best.. thx to all of u

[@obscurelines]

By far, the best and most informative Ren reaction I've seen. When you said they were commiserating together it was powerful. We are so used to duets that are 'love' based but this was deeper, it was human connection together in challenge.

[@natebristlin]

Man, your reactions are quite remarkable. I really enjoy your insight and expertise in vocals. I am not a singer, but truly appreciate your view. And REN, holy crap. He’s amazing. Love your passion.

[@zae5159]

This might be a weird comment, but it was so classy of you to take that moment to let analysis take the backseat for a moment to the emotion of that segment of their duet, I loved that you realized that it wasn't necessarily the moment for analytical mind, but to just get lost in it for a moment. This song is such a gift, and this analysis is so great! 💜

[@zenedd]

Such a delicious delve into this beautiful performance. I'm vibing off your enthusiasm and never wanted this reaction to end. Thank you

[@Veeliscious]

Delicious delve - it was indeed. Perfect description

[@bethscott4330]

Great reaction. I love every minute. It’s obvious you love music and talent.

[@garyswift83]

The way their voices compliment the other in a perfect connection of dependency in the other. One would say it's the perfect duo, a masterclass per say! I love these guys together and I have found a new favorite in REN. My wife who usually hates this kind of music found a love for it too. My favorite REN song is "Violets Tale". That given he's already covered the others would make for a great next video.

[@bojnebojnebojne]

The amount of soul he brings to this song is just out of this world. Every time i hear this this song i just burst into tears during the acapella segment. He really just has the most uncanny ability to pierce right into my soul. The interaction here between Chinchilla and Ren makes it hit home so much harder because the connection they share of complete understanding of what they are singing and i can only assume that both of them have gone through very hard things in life to be able to embody the emotions to this degree. You know how we talk about being on the same wavelength when talking about finding partners? That wavelength is very real when it comes to understanding pain and suffering as well. I might be biased because this song hits really close to home as someone who struggles daily for my entire life with mental health issues. So the context of this song cuts deep into my soul and it is a perfect depiction of how it feels. I think REN is the most poetic storyteller of our generation hands down, and Chinchilla is no slouch in this piece either, she really nails it.

[@Henry-go7gi]

Phenomenal song Phenomenal artists Phenomenal time in my life to listen to this music MONSTER. Song is 🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥 Ren and Chinchilla is 🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥 Reaction is 🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥 .... thanks man...I appreciate you 🎉🎉🎉

He can do anything. He has a band The Big Push I shot the Sherrif\Road to Zion\Hip Hop is his Reggae side. The very next song from the same live set is a Warpigs cover where he turns into a Rock God. I have never heard an artist be this outstanding at so many completely different styles.

[@patrickquinlan3056]

Watching this gives me goosebumps. But I also feel like I violated their privacy. Like the intimacy is so great that I almost feel like a voyeur.

[@Harbor-S]

Great reaction! Thank you so much for continuing on Ren! Looking forward to more! Another band that would be great for vocal analyzing is Nightwish. Their lead vocalist, Floor Jansen, is a classically trained soprano and has a little training in opera. They have a lot of symphony in their music as well. The lyrics are deeply poetic and range thru many topics. I've never seen someone be able to relay the emotion and feels of a song so well, even through a screen, and still have it hit you after years. Her breathing and technique is amazing. She can do many styles from opera all the way to death growls. I think you'd really have a lot of great things to show through reacting to them. I would start with the Nightwish song Ghost Love Score Live from Wacken 2013. Just a suggestion! Thanks so much for your detailed breakdowns on the vocal aspects. I found you on Hi Ren, and have subbed for the ride. Thanks for sharing your knowledge and thoughts with us all! Blessings to you & yours from Alabama!

This is by far the best analysis of this masterpiece. I forgot how amazing your insight is. This incredible piece of music, that is reality for some of us, is the first time in a very long time I have listened to over and over. You were able to put words to what I was hearing that I didn't understand. That amazing upper register harmony and the subtleties and nuances along the way. I believe this is a perfect moment of music. Thank you. Love and respect from Australia.

It is amazing to me that you are coming from a place of the science of singing and I am coming to this as someone who has never had a voice (by popular request) and yet we can both agree on the beauty of this wonderful performance. Great art speaks to us all.

[@Veeliscious]

Such a fascinating breakdown for me as someone who is not musical at all, but appreciates and recognises great music even though I don't know how or why it has captivated me or given me the frisson- the way you sing and demonstrate the difference between how a flat note would convey and hold such less emotion than the way Ren tails off into a "head note" for example, gives me that "Ahh, I see, to something that was previously unexplainable to me. I also found your obvious eargasm at 14:04 highly entertaining lol

I love your video's Chris, they are so informative. The way you explain the different techniques and nuances is fantastic. It is the " knowing " of great vocalists, exactly when, and how, to manage these techniques to fit the emotion of the lyrics, which separates the very good from the incredible ( in my opinion ) The ability to, not only sing using the voice to its full potential, but to also understand the sentiment behind each and every nuance of every word for maximum effect.These two amazing artists are literally breaking their hearts in their outpouring of emotions. This is not acting, this is 100% REAL. Absolutely SENSATIONAL stuff.
