I cried! Ren - Su!cIde (Official Music Video) [REACTION]

[@bornsick5150]

Great reaction. Your videos won’t get struck if it’s Ren content. He is very supportive towards the reactors. Pause or don’t pause, you’ll be fine

[@sabrinaevans8746]

Dont hold back. We ALL cried!

[@ulisesreyes9160]

All my friends started dying to drugs, depression, and shit like that. We all used to love skating but now I can't even go to the places we all used to love hanging out together because it just brings back pain. The youngest and the most gentle and carrying was Josh who didn't even get to turn 18. I have dreams about him where I meet him at the skatepark and when I'm about to leave i offer him a ride home like I always used to and it brakes my heart because he tells me "i think I'm just going to stay here thank" like he finally found a better place to be then where he was in his last moments. Josh was so heavy into drugs that one day his heart just gave out and didn't wake up from his sleep. I LOVE YOU JOSH.

Ren overrides all copyright claims personally.

[@philk9227]

Eloquent and heartfelt reaction. Ren has always been able to take us on an emotional journey but in this one his pain is so palpable and raw he probably made every one of us cry.

[@stacie9229]

New sub.- that end part is his complete devastation.

[@brentwilliams694]

Amazing reaction Gursaiv, Great work 💯🔥. I really appreciate how well Ren is able to articulate his thoughts and feelings in such a way that, not only do we get to understand his perspective, we are able to visualize it as well.

For those not aware of the events behind this song @RenMakesMusic And here's (part of) the writeup that Ren shared before the premiere and sent to his email list: I first met Joe when I was 8 years old, my friend Josh said I had to meet this guy, so we both walked over to his, it took about 10 minutes from my house. I was greeted by this kid covered head to toe in freckles, he grinned at us, climbed onto the back of his sofa and screamed “Swanton Bomb!” then front flipped off the top and landed right onto his back on a stone floor. He lay still for a moment, twitched a few times, then got up, grinned at us, brushed himself off, and did it again. This was Joe. He’d do anything to make people laugh. He ended up becoming one of my best friends. He was there when we stole our first cigarettes out of his mums pack, way too young. He was there when I had my first kiss, with a girl twice my size on the back of the 42 bus. He was there when I first got so drunk I threw up in the woods after drinking as much white lightning Cider as we could. I was there when he did his first backflip on skates, and saw him do a 720 off of the pier cave, that moment became legendary. Joe was the funny one in our friend group, he’d make us laugh till it hurt. No one had a bad word to say about him. It was impossible not to like him. Usually we put celebrities, athletes and actors on pedestals, turn them into role models and admire them from a far. The person I admired was Joe. Him and Sagar knew every word to the songs id write, we’d get drunk at parties and they’d be singing along as loud as they could. It gave me a lot of confidence back then. On Christmas Eve 2010 I was sitting in a pub with Joe, he’d been feeling low after a couple of consecutive break ups. He tried to check himself into a mental health outpatient facility a few weeks earlier but they turned him away because he didn’t have an appointment. He turned to me and said that sometimes he wished he could just walk into the sea and keep walking. He said it in a kind of half joking throw away comment type of way, then took a sip of his drink, walked over to the juke box and put Dig by Incubus on. If I knew that was the last time I’d see Joe id have hugged him, told him how much I loved him, how much I looked up to him, how much we all loved him, and I wouldn’t have left that pub. I didn’t know that, so I finished my drink, said happy Christmas and left. Two nights after Christmas I got woken up by a phone call at 3am, it was my friend Ella. She told me Joe was on the Menai Bridge, a large suspension bridge connecting the main land to the isle of Anglesey where we lived. He’d been on the phone to her in tears saying goodbye. He told her to tell everyone he loved them. I pulled on my clothes as fast as I could and started running toward the bridge. It was up a hill. I lived about a ten minute walk away, I could run it in five. As I ran I started dialling then redialing his number. The line was busy, which was a good sign, it meant he was still on the phone to someone. As I got about halfway, the busy tone changed. It told me the line was out of service. I got a sinking feeling and picked up my speed. I arrived to the bridge minutes after I left my house. It was deafeningly quiet. I was the first person to arrive. I got there probably about 2 minutes too late. Joe’s body was never found. Initially we refused to believe he was gone. The coastguard came out that night, with boats, and helicopters. Me and my friends spent the next 10 days putting up missing posters everywhere we could, walking up and down beaches with flashlights, getting about 3 hours sleep a night. When you’re walking up and down a beach with a torch when its dark everything looks like a body. We still haven’t found Joe. As his birthday came around, I wrote a song, freckled angels, a song I dedicated to Joe which I sang in front of his friends and family. A charity football match was put on for him, raising money for the RNLI where I won two bottles of wine in a raffle, I drank them both as quickly as I could, naturally, turned to my friend and probably slurred something along the lines of “This is the last time I ever drink” That was 12 years ago, I haven’t touched a drop of alcohol since.

[@sydneexxceasy9063]

Thank you for posting that. It shows how amazing Joe was and how hard it hit everyone.

[@mldkenny]

Great reaction to this highly emotional track, Ren is such a light of hope.

[@peterveste6976]

Ren has started a movement of love ❤

[@gcarap]

NO NEED to worry about copyrights with Ren or The Big Push or the "Ren Friends" (Chinchilla, Sam Tompkins, etc...)

[@lvandenburg4189]

Honest and open he is. And you are and I will be. My mom is 83 years old and was in a Jap Camp as a kid. Her first memory is of the liberation when a British Indian soldier took her on his lap and gave her sweets. He had a turban and a beard. There were Sikh troops on the island, I checked the archives. Waheguru! And then you and Ren?! This type of stuff hit me so much. Love you both! ♥♥♥ ♥♥♥❤🧡💚💛

[@luckytheirishman]

Ren is indepentent....He dosent care about copy rights

[@garysherwin3316]

Brilliant reaction x

[@marianneszijj]

New sub here. Ren really shows the severe collateral damage left in the wake of such an act even a decade later. Grief is such a roller coaster… Ren’s twitch session yesterday was ironically so uplifting! It is incredible how he can gut you with a song and the have you rolling with laughter the next day, goofing off with his friends. It was nice to see his take on the song and how he added the last bars long after the song was written. His art and the community that it is inspiring is literally serving as my therapy these last several months.

[@catsandcrafts171]

As others have said, don't pause, Ren wants reactors to share his music, he often comments on reaction videos himself. Just let it flow, it's beautiful.

[@troytucker3467]

We love you mate!

[@darthgambo1]

Great Reaction! You keep it Real.. You understand music and feeling .,Love it! Here for it!

[@tonymosley3547]

Ed can’t hold his anything

[@wildboyz7230]

Jumped right on this reaction once I saw it was you!!!!😊😊 Such a natural reaction I missed you but home to see more content. I know priorities come first so keep it up no matter what love!!!!!!❤

[@DianeLFC]

Great reaction ❤

[@petebrown6356]

I'm not crying, you're crying...

[@LiamSeniorYT]

Loved the reaction. First time I’ve seen your channel. Love it! Have subbed. Always good to see another northerner smashing it! Where abouts are you based? I’m originally from near Manchester but moved to Middlesbrough. Trying to place your accent, I’m hearing bits of west and North Yorkshire.

[@jukeboxdave6026]

Great reaction ( Rip Joe) 🙏

[@lauralynn1124]

UK Rolling Stone just put out a story on Ren.

[@Dazkil]

Excellent reaction.Love your northern UK accent .You keep on being you .I'm sure you will get gripes about Ed comparison but in the first bit the music is a bit derivative but obviously the last bit is fab.

[@peterveste6976]

thank you for reacting to my favourite artist ever ❤❤❤

[@garysherwin3316]

True story about his best friend Joe

[@FixTheLanes]

Ren doesn't do copyrights, if you get a strike message him and he will have it removed

[@LiannaBabeli]

Indeed, Ren has specifically stated, officially, that he will never copyright strike any reactors, because he WANTS people to give their opinions, their thoughts, their subjective views as he seeks to understand more of his fellows as much as himself.

[@silverash63]

This is the most spot on reaction to a ren song I've ever heard,well done young lady

[@denisebulgariu964]

All YT crying

[@hiSPACEmango]

Hi Gursaiv. Been awhile since you've last posted. Just hoping you're ok and healthy. Please reach out if needed.

[@davidjames3080]

Ed Sheeran is actually younger than Ren so is unlikely to be a major influence on Ren's early career, although any successful artist is probably going to have a certain amount of influence. It has even been suggested that Ed Sheeran may have borrowed from some of Ren's early stuff (when Ren was unknown) but I don't think this is true either. I would say that a lot of the chords, rhythms and beats are common and well known to be successful in other songs, so are commonly used.

[@davepykett4427]

Wakey wines 😂

[@sabrinaevans8746]

He doesn’t copywriter. You don’t have to pause

[@littlemissbossy1000]

I think the face changes represent the high rate of suicide in men due to depression and mental health

[@ryanw0987]

R u from Yorkshire lol

[@lazybone4990]

I like your reactions and I know is all based on opinions, but keep comparing Ren with ed, ‘em or anyone else and then say he is so unique is just crazy.

[@davew2106]

you will not get a strike from Ren

[@ZacharyTilzer]

I feel like your pausing to avoud breaking. Maybe im wrong. But, just my observation

[@tobbi11]

sorry , just not in a great place but... Ed Sheeran vibes? that guy that write shallow pointless lyrics, where's national football jerseys in every country to pander to the simpletons that think has doing it especially for them, books venues that just makes him the most money, even if it means an outside venue in Iceland and then spends little as humanly possible on concert production, why would he? he's there for the sheep's money. I am sure you meant like the melody or something but as someone that seas Ren as a groundbreaking artist that puts his heart and soul in every song and gives everyone permission to use his songs despite needing all the money he can get for incredibly expensive treatments, I just gag at the idea of compering the two on any point what so ever

[@pharoh2700]

I’ve often said Ren reminds of ES before he sold out 😅

[@WelshAmethystGirl087]

I really enjoyed your reaction your so fun and bubbly, but I have to just say you can't compare ren to Ed sheeran that's just shocking don't get me wrong Ed sheeran is good but ren is just another level

[@Codex7777]

Ren's got more talent, empathy and intelligence in his little finger, than Ed Sheeran has in his entire body! Most of Ed Sheeran's songs are pretty bland and generic. Two adjectives that you can never apply to Ren's work. :)

[@bmol32]

Please don’t put ren and Ed Sheeran in the same sentence. Nothing in common in any way

[@kellybailey1377]

SHM Ed Sheeran. lol

[@Bearlissimo]

I like your reactions, but this wasnt the place for an ad... And I'll get hate from the comments about it, but for me, its tone deaf & I understand that you didnt ask for this comment.
