Gen Z Reacts to Ren Trilogy-Jenny, Screech and Violets Tale

[@Ph4n_t0m]

Joanna : "I'm gonna reply to every comment" every experienced Renegade, chuckling : "Awww isn't that cute..." (aside: she has _no idea_ how many we are does she? hahaha)

[@joannasnedden]

Haha 😂 I was able to respond to yours though! I take that as a win! There are so many renegades 😳 the fan base is massive

[@kevinmclaughlin8975]

😂😂😂

[@kellyt5341]

😂... Nope.

[@nEthing4Her]

@@joannasnedden Hehehe I think you got me too, back on _Hi Ren_ hehe. Don't hold back the emotions - happy or sad - that Ren brings out. You will cry, you will laugh, you will imagine, you will reminisce - and we, your RENegade siblings - are here for it. Please never feel afraid to 'hide'. You are among many who are here for you and each other.

[@Defy223]

Nylon strings! That’s the sound for this and Hi REN

[@geofthompson3844]

You shouldn't ever worry about the length of your videos. We are all massive Renegades and we love listening to other people talking about how much they also love Ren's work. My advice. Don't do what you think other's might want. Do exactly whatever feels right to you. We'll watch it 😊😂

[@joannasnedden]

Wow I really appreciate this 😊 I was worried the video was getting too long so I cut it off. I could’ve talked for a longgggg time about this. I also wanted to read the comments under the video to see what other people were saying. I will definitely do that for my next video. Filming another tonight I believe :) I appreciate you giving me the encouragement to make a longer video!

[@geofthompson3844]

@joannasnedden I look forward to watching your journey with Ren. And I'm happy I was able to encourage you to just be yourself and waffle on 😁😂. I'm known to ramble myself 🤣

[@staticcentrehalf7166]

This is bliss... I've now discovered one of my favourite artists - Kate Bush (admittedly in her younger years) - reacting to THE greatest artist of all time. I'm in!!! Although (Hence the edit) less keen when you minimised yourself. Seeing your reaction properly is part of the fun.

[@joannasnedden]

Wow ! That’s a huge compliment:) thank you so much! Kate Bush is awesome!!! 😎 I appreciate the feedback. I didn’t minimize myself in the video I’m uploading today! Thank you for your good vibes

[@DazzleMonroe]

@@joannasnedden Agreed. Reactor's faces are half the reaction.

[@yarddawg8287]

The first part, Jenny, was inspired by a newspaper article about a street walker that was mugged and killed by a teenage boy. From what I understand Ren evolved that into the trilogy, a huge statement about the generational curse of violence and abuse. Many Renegades often compare it to a Shakespearian tale, with the intricacies in the plot and the dark over tones leading to the final tragedy. If you are ready for something light hearted and fun by Ren, I would suggest "Back on Seventy four/Message in a Bottle" mashup. It really shows off his talent as a singer, and has great vibes! Lotsa' love from Texas

[@joannasnedden]

Ahhhhh…. That makes it even better…. I love that break down. It’s so true. We have to break the cycle or it never will. I will definitely react to that suggestion:) thank you! Lotsa’ love from Oklahoma!

[@violincredible]

Hey, don't worry about your Ren reactions getting long, I'm pretty certain I speak for a LOT of other renegades when I say: Bring it on!!!

[@joannasnedden]

Hahahaha I love it 😇 I’m going to do it!!! I appreciate the encouragement

[@RENegadeMaster77]

Thank you so much for continuing to support Ren,it's very,very much appreciated. Another fantastic reaction,very sincere,thoughtful and reflective,and most importantly - genuine,i'm sure everyone will appreciate that. I mentioned this in my comment on your Hi Ren reaction,but in case you missed it,when you pause,if you hit the left arrow key before you restart,that will quickly rewind by exactly 5 seconds,it helps so you don't miss anything,people seem to like when reactors do it,just a suggestion. My two cents for your next reaction would be - Back on 74 / Message In A Bottle (Live Retake) it's something a lot more chilled than you're previous two Ren reactions. If you'd like to do a short non-music reaction to mix it up a bit,i'd highly recommend One Million Subscribers - Defining Success,it's a nice brief insight into Ren - the person. If you want some rap then Sick Boi would be the natural progression to that side of Ren,or maybe Losing It,which leans more towards the light hearted side of his rap work. More deeper/heavier singing Ren would be either Ren X Chinchila - How To Be Me (Live) or Ren X Chinchilla - Chalk Outlines (Live) . Much love from the UK❣🙌

[@joannasnedden]

Well thank you so much! I am happy to support Ren. He definitely deserves it!!! I appreciate all of these suggestions. It is so helpful. I just reacted to Chalk Outlines today 😄

[@kenfreedman1357]

New sub! Welcome to the most varied rabbit hole. He slams at soooooo many styles. He’s self taught on all instruments. You can learn about him with his chapter videos (there are 8 and he narrates his whole journey as an artist / human suffering). He’s humble, funny as hell, fiercely brilliant, so creative and life hasn’t been the same since I found him. Look into his busking (street performing) videos with his band “The Big Push” and so many deep and fun rap songs and collabs with other independent artists (Chinchilla is one of many and she kills!). Keep reacting and don’t minimize your image as much as you did because most of why the renegades love watching reactions is to capture the wonder we had when first watching a Ren video. Enjoy the ride. It’s like no other.

[@joannasnedden]

Thank you so much for subscribing! 😄 I appreciate this break down so much!! Wow! He is incredibly interesting…. I won’t minimize myself again 🫡 Thank you for your support. So excited to react to more Ren!!

[@daletolmich6459]

Loved the reaction. You're going to Love your journey. We envy you for we all wish we could discover the beauty that is Ren all over again.

[@joannasnedden]

Aww well thank you. You all are coming with me on this journey! I am so excited 😄

[@MuresanBol77]

I think this one caught every single person off guard from the pitch. lol His story telling capability is top notch, best I've seen in a long time. Ren pulls the feeling out of us because his stories are REAL and typically tragic because humanity is flawed. And to think he still does all this, did all this, so very sick for years and years! Great reaction!!

[@joannasnedden]

I couldn’t have said it better myself! That is sooooo true. 😊 humanity is so flawed. Perfectly imperfect…..

[@billmcauliffe5692]

Dear Joanna,I hope you and your family are well. In my opinion Ren Gill is the most important incomparable unique independent artist of the first half of the 21st Century. If his health allows he shall make great art ,he is the tide that will raise all ships you can be one of them .Stay safe be kind and nice to people, project love and it will come back twofold. x

[@StriderTwo]

The journey begins.

We have all seen these songs 100 times. We com to see you and your reaction. Please don’t make box so small in future. Fantastic react! I can’t wait to see you on the next one!!!

[@NightFogFilms]

Yep can't see the reactions, especially if viewing on a phone.

[@lawrencecassidy1229]

Glad you are one of us, at 65 years old, I have faith in music again, you have so much fun to come with the rabbit hole,

[@andychapman-th3bl00dynine4]

Lovely reaction and analysis. Love that you have so much empathy. I would recommend Ren featuring Bibi - Crutch. The visuals are amazing and he is singing not rapping. It is really beautiful song and heart-breaking too.

[@BrianJurgens-g7d]

Your reactions are so genuine and wholesome. Keep going down the rabbit hole of the Reniverse. I suggest the money game trilogy, + money ties. His rapping skills are showcased in "the hunger" and "losing it".❤❤❤❤

[@joannasnedden]

Aww thank you so much 😊 I appreciate that!!! Will check those out. So happy to have you here.

[@Defy223]

Renegades are so welcoming, we love any REN fan and how could you not be a fan?

[@Skotie1]

Thanks so much for continuing the journey. One thing I've mentioned, though is no captions. I feel it's better to miss words here and there, and just taking the overall experience of the performance. Can't wait for your next one Maybe we should give you a break and lighten it up a little bit for you so we recommend "losing it" no tears I promise

[@longkesh1971]

Yeah, good suggestion. Closed captions never seem to be accurate.

[@Stuart_George]

​@longkesh1971 To be fair, they don't seem to be too bad on ''The Tales' trilogy. Unlike the complete mess that are the closed captions on Hi Ren.!!

[@xxMelaniexx]

There is a lot of different vibes in Rens music. We are lucky to find an artist with a huge catalog and content on KZbin. For singing. Chalk Outines, Fred Again Mashup, How to be Me, Back on 74 all great examples of his singing range

[@joannasnedden]

Thank you for your comment! I just reacted to chalk outlines. It was soooooo good. I really enjoyed it!!!

[@HS-ol4zl]

Largen your window , please. We wanna see your reactions!

[@Stewart-m7i]

New UK subscriber for your Ren reactions. He's a storytelling genius, Andrew Loyd Webber (Cats, Evita, Phantom) says he's one of the best storytellers he's ever seen. Great reaction to this masterpiece. For singing Ren 'Back on '74' - if you want to know more abour Ren '1 Million subscribers speech' or his 8 Chapters each with a song on the end, they're on his other channel Renmakesstuff.

[@robmarar]

I❤❤it & I 💯 agree with this entire comment, that mash-up is🔥. If you REALLY want to know Ren and the struggles he's been through then watch Ren's 8 Chapters, each chapters runs approx. 20 min. ✌

[@joannasnedden]

Thank you so much for subscribing!!! Much love to the UK 🇬🇧 😄 Wow! I appreciate the suggestions!

[@GabeHornne]

Awesome reactions can't wait to see the next one

[@joannasnedden]

Thank you 😄 I’m excited! I am loving this. So excited to film the next one.

[@katiecollison6629]

Hi came across your channel today ☺️ yet another Ren Fan here love your reaction to this nearly everyone is shocked at the end..🇬🇧

[@joannasnedden]

Hello 😇 Thank you for joining us!! Yes! It is so much fun!

[@longkesh1971]

Nice reaction. It would be better with your face a little larger and no closed captions. See you for next Ren video!!

[@joannasnedden]

Thank you 😄 I agree! The reason I made my face smaller is cuz I was lagging so bad at some point…. My internet was working to hard I guess. I will make my face bigger for the next one :) thank you for your comment! See you for the next one!

[@darkmatter6714]

How does he find this creativity? REN’s life packs more experiences than most people could pack in several lifetimes: he has faced death, depression, poverty, chronic physical illness, chronic mental illness, lost friends through su*cide and tragic accidents and…he is extremely smart and well-read with an insane cultural and philosophical reach. He lost most of his 20’s being bed-bound for up to 23 hours a day, so he read a lot and educated himself with anything and everything he could. He’s also seen great joy and success with his self-released independent album going number one in the charts. His highs and lows have been off the charts. With that kind of extreme background, comes extreme creativity. He’s about as evolved a human being as you can find, especially for someone so young. I’ve heard people say that he’s like a modern-day prophet. I’d say they’re not far wrong.

[@Moctipotili1]

Thank you for reacting to this video! Rin has a large portfolio of music videos here on KZbin, so I know fellow Renegades will be suggesting a few where Ren primarily sings. All of his music is distinctly Ren.

[@mldkenny]

There seriously are so many gems in his massive catalog! Back on 74 is stunning. ( personal favourite is Peintence Ren with Molly McKinna ). Really enjoy your reaction as well.

[@Kindneccessity]

My favourite is Penitence as well. Molly is stunning on the track and it’s heartbreaking.

[@RAMBUK1989]

i was going to sub for the Ren journey but i really like how calming and nice your reactions. are.

[@joannasnedden]

Aw that makes me so happy to know you find my reactions calming 😁 thank you!!! So excited to have you here for the journey. Thank you 🙏🏼

[@TheAxeification]

Great reaction. I thought the audio and everything was fine! Ok- you want some singing then I'd recommend one of these three (of course, there's loads more) -Back on 74/Message in a Bottle retake -Fred Again mashup -I shot the sheriff/road to zion/hip hop - The Big Push (his old band- will be on their page) -How to be Me (live version) If you want rap: (again- way more than this) -Seven Sins -Slaughter House -Wicked Ways Bottom line- I haven't found a song that included Ren I didn't like. I like some more than others, but I haven't disliked one. The bonus is you never know what style you'll get (sing/rap/storytell/all) until you press play. Again- a great reaction. I enjoy your authenticity. Something that attracts many of Ren's fans to him.

[@joannasnedden]

Wow!!! I appreciate this break down very much 😄 I will look into these! I’m trying to figure out what to react to next and it’s not an easy choice 🙈 If I didn’t have a KZbin channel I would’ve watched them all already 🤣 I love the anticipation though! So excited! Thank you for your input!!

[@TheAxeification]

@@joannasnedden Absolutely my pleasure. I am excited as well! It's fun to watch a person experience Ren for the first time. I get to experience that feeling again watching. I'm sure you've received many recommendations, but I almost forgot the storytelling ones. -Money Game Trilogy -The 8-part Chapters series on his renmakesstuff channel (might be on his main one now too). This goes in to detail on his condition and the years spent attempting to find out why he was sick. There's a music video at the end of each chapter that relates to it. Not necessarily something react to (except for the videos at the end 😃), but know more about Ren. This series leads to his song: -Troubles (there's a music video and live version) which summarizes the Chapters series in song form. And, of course, there's more. Enjoy! I look forward to watching!

[@ige-individualgroupeffort-kenl]

Really nice reaction. Glad to see you going down the Ren Hole. I will jump on with everybody else and say to make yourself full screen and the video smaller. We definitely come to see you react and you're too pretty to be put in a corner. Nobody puts Jaonna in the Corner! LOl. Good luck with your channel and see you next time.

[@joannasnedden]

Thank you! I am so excited to go on this adventure 😄 Hahaha I won’t put myself in a corner again 🫡 Thank you so much! I just posted another today. I appreciate your good vibes 😎

[@troy9er]

Keep going! We all love REN! ❤️

[@joannasnedden]

WOOHOO 🥳 same here

[@majbrat]

❤❤❤BARDCORE❤❤❤ If you want to know more about Ren, there is his song Troubles (official video) & an acoustic version - many do it as a double. Also, his 1 Million subscriber thank you video gives you insight into his character. Then there are his Chapters on his Renmakesstuff YT that tell his story in full. I think a happier song for you with a totally different feel might be warranted. Maybe Losing It, Power, or with his band The Big Push and the song Bongo Bong. 😊

[@joannasnedden]

Wow! I really appreciate this break down 😊 Thank you so much! I will definitely react to these.

[@stillninja2741]

Beautiful reaction to the first video I've come across from you as of yet. Sub'd and would love to experience The Ren Rabbit Hole through your fresh eyes. You are indeed going to have many comments to reply to *Bump* and until next time.

[@joannasnedden]

Hello! Thank you so much for subscribing 😇 I really appreciate it!!! I am loving this journey so far. Thank you for your good vibes and energy!

[@StefanVillkatt]

Love your reactions! Maybe we should give you a chance not to cry on your next one? You could try his Retake on Back on 74 (for some singing, fun Ren), Power (for a catchy banger) or his live duet with Chinchilla One Dance/Drunk in Love (for busking Ren and the diamond of an artist Chinchilla).

[@fredwds5178]

You’re very lucky because you have so much great music from Ren to discover. He is truly incredible. Listen, contemplate and enjoy. Welcome to his tremendous fan base!

[@JonnyWho]

Cool reaction. Glad you picked this one as it's another powerful combo and I look forward to what you choose next. Without knowing your music taste/history, here's some other great bands with songs that make you take note of the lyrics as well as sounding great. Skunk Anansie, Manic Street Preachers, Garbage for just 3 among many.

[@vickihammond5576]

New sub for the REN ride. It’s a magical musical adventure. If you really want to experience his vocals…listen to him singing Wade in the Water live in Berlin Then Precious, Why My Woman. His next album will be more singing and guitar player…I’m so stoked for it!! He has an extensive catalog and every song is heartfelt …he is a consummate performer, composer, lyricists instrumentalist, poet, actor, producer, director…he can do it all. If that’s not enough he is funny, humble and sensitive. He is such a genius. I have never seen anything like him. #Renegadeforlife ✌🏽

[@joannasnedden]

Thank you so much for subscribing 😊 I I will check those out and put them on my reaction list. I appreciate your comment 😁

[@michaelmccreary3370]

A few months ago, Ren released a series of videos where he tells his whole story in his own words... Its in the playlists on his page.

[@doccops]

Nice one, Ren is quite an artist for sure.

[@joannasnedden]

I agree :)

[@formervocalist]

I hope your allergies give you some relief soon. It's nice when a person's empathetic spirit is able to felt through a screen. We'll always be strangers, but we are both blessed to be a part of the same amazing RENegade family that spans across the entire world. Please take your own REN journey. People will give you suggestions, but that was their journey. Go with what speaks to you at that moment. The beautiful thing about true art is that it allows for open discussions and interpretation. I wish you peace, love, and growth from the east coast of the US.

Morning 😄

[@michaelwalsh7359]

There is a song that was JUST put out… WynandFouriemusic- loves healing You’ll really see what this fan base is all about! I would suggest also checking out his 1 million subscribers video sooner than later. As for a “path” there are only a few things that any order is important and one is this song which seems like you got all 3 and in order so your doing good so far. There is money game 1,2+3… you’ll want to make note that money game 2 is the “official lyric video”. One more important one is Kujo beatdown. You’ll want to save that one specific for later in the journey. You’ll want to see sickboi, money game, and the explainer video before Kujo beatdown. Other than that there are no misses and no wrong choices so go nuts. Just remember ren has happy, sad, hopeless, and inspirational music! Don’t do too many sad or heavy ones in a row so you don’t burn out. Love your reactions and excited to share this journey with you! ❤

[@alexanderlennartz5143]

Welcome to RENs rabbit hole.

[@joannasnedden]

Thank you 😊 I love it here. Ready for an adventure

[@violincredible]

Absolutely loving your Ren reactions so far! As you already know, there is an audio issue with the track/music -I'm pretty sure it's because you need to deselect 'echo cancellation' or something similar in your software... Whatever audio setting it is is crushing the music terribly. No shade on you, I'm an audio engineer (and a musician) and I'm not 100 percent sure exactly what the cause of the problem is, but I'm sure some experimentation will improve it! Keep up the awesomeness, you are the real deal!!!

[@joannasnedden]

Thank you so much. I took a screenshot of this comment. I have not been able to figure out what the issue is. I am going to contact the creators of the software for help at this point. I appreciate your tip! That actually might fix it. I will look around. I hope I can fix it soon 🥲

[@peterveste6976]

Thank you so much for continuing to react to my favourite artist ever I love your reactions, I hope you get a chance to react to Rens back on 74/message in bottle a his voice is amazing on it,sending big love to you and your family from a renegade in the UK ❤❤❤

[@michel5856]

Welcome to the party, enjoy the ride.

[@Shiroar]

The renegades are a force of love and support 😂 But it’s all because that is exactly what this man inspires. Watch his 1m subscribers video on defining success to understand what I mean ❤ Ren is a modern day bard painting such vivid imagery with his storytelling that it pulls you in and forces you to keep watching - even when it gets physically uncomfortable during Violet’s Tale. And Ren uses this ability to shed light on far too real issues in the world. Ren is special. The Ren rabbit hole is deep and wide, but every part of it is worth exploring - including the bands Trick the Fox and The Big Push.

[@joannasnedden]

Awww yes ☺️ They truly are a force to be recognized. I will check into his 1M sun video! A few people have suggested that. Wow!! That is so beautiful. I love the way you put that. Thank you!

[@dorkette_chicky]

Loved your reaction! If you want to get to know Ren the person, to better understand Ren the artist, check out his Million Subscriber video, and his 8 chapters. Much love ❤️

[@Mr.Ekshin]

Her "reaction"? Did you have a magnifying glass? She spent most of this trilogy as a tiny icon in the lower left corner of the video.

[@dorkette_chicky]

@Mr.Ekshin i prefer to uplift rather than tear down. To each their own though. Peace friend.

[@Mr.Ekshin]

@@dorkette_chicky - I'm not tearing anything down... just observing that you can't actually see her reaction through most of this video. Whoever edited it decided to shrink her into a corner. Maybe the editor works with giant screens and it's not obvious to them, but on a small screen, she's basically a tiny icon in the corner.

[@Stuart_George]

​@@Mr.EkshinShe did explain why she did it.

[@chuckw4947]

Welcome Joanna!!!....so happy to now include your site on my daily " let's see who reacted to Ren or his friends today" list! ❤

[@Kantanshi]

51 year old guy here. Don't worry about your video length when it comes to Ren reactions. Us Renegades are used to it. I've been listening to Ren's work for about 2 years now and have seen countless reactors, many of them quite long. Say what you want to say. Besides, I love your voice, you can ramble as long as you want. 😉 Just keep being your adorable self. Ren has gotten me back into music. I've been avoiding music for a long time now because everything new is so cookie cutter. I stopped listening to rap back in the late 90's. Ren drew me back in. My favorite song of his is also the one that effects me the most. First time I heard it I ugly cried because it is about something that I went through many years ago. It's called "Chalk Outlines". He put it all to words in a way I never could. It's also a duet piece with an artist called Chinchilla. She is wonderful. It perfectly showcases both of their singing voices. You've got a new subscriber.

[@joannasnedden]

Well thank you so much 😄 I really needed to hear that. I appreciate your encouragement. I will be more of myself in my next video. I totally hear where you’re coming from. Thank you for sharing your story. That is so inspiring! Wow. I’m so happy for you. I feel like Ren has brought back my passion for making videos…. Thank you so much for subscribing. See you in the next video :)

[@jeromeschwartz4778]

"Wade in the water" , Ren's band , the big push.,doing song Iive , his rap skills , which myself I'm not a fan of rap music but , his song " the hinger " is amazingly done ... Another song , "blind eye" , with Ren an Sam I'm coffee shop.... These song , not as sad , but shows different skills in music ..

[@kevinhayes7830]

To hear his singing try ren back on 74 😎👍

[@longkesh1971]

Also, both the duets with Chinchilla show his singing ability. I like Back on 74 too.

[@TheColdrush22]

This was awesome

[@deanc486]

If you want a clear history of Ren and his journey so far You could watch the Chapters series (1-8). A couple of my Ren favourites are Precious and Penitence featuring Molly Mckinna. Enjoy

[@Stuart_George]

I would suggest Money Game, parts 1 to 3, as a further introduction to Ren. (Make sure it's the lyric video for part 2 though). Personally, I think they just get better and better with each part. I feel the same about the Jenny & Screech trilogy. Jenny's tale is great, Screech's tale better, and as for Violet's tale, well it's just simply phenomenal. Every time I hear it, I'm blown away by how Ren conveys such a horrific and violent scene, with such poetic (almost beautiful in a weird way) lyrics. The dichotomy of that kinda messes with my brain.!

[@joannasnedden]

You took the words right out of my mouth! It was so poetic…. Thank you for your suggestion! I think I will react to money games next :) thank you!!!

[@briancoker1]

If you love his singing voice, like what he did in the stairwell, I would highly recommend you check out his live performance of chalk outlines with chinchilla next…such a beautiful song!

[@joannasnedden]

Thank you so much! I just posted my reaction to that today 😄

[@dave.james007]

Awesome reaction, maybe do a bit more of a fun Ren next like love music 1,2,3,4 or Back on 74 Message in a bottle,if you want to hear Ren rap definitely check out the hunger or losing it would be a good place to start,, anyhoo I'm waffling on hope you have a good day and I'm looking forward to the next reaction ✌️

[@ianrose56]

It's called Bardcore.. Story,narrator, and actor in role... Very old skool William Shakespeare orientated, there's only one Ren Gill. This Bard tale was improvised from a true story in part, Ren read a newspaper article about a teenage mugger hitting up a teenage prostitute. The tales where born..!! It's a very deep dive rabbit hole, it spans well over 15 years or watchable music, 250 plus video's..!! After this,maybe the money game series prts 1,2,3... also there's the latest stuff released, so it's a mine field of music. Which ever route you choose, it's a journey you'll never forget, and you will become one of us... A fully fledged Renegade.!!

[@jonjoreynoldsgranner7307]

Not a ren song. But some dude has made a song for ren. Because he's been so ill lately. It has a bunch of renegade messages for ren to show him love. Think it's called love is healing. You're right.

Stevie was shown to be violent and out of control and their's seemed to be a quick thing. Her OWN father though did unmentionable things. In all likelihood she was not only their mother but also their half sister. Ren is a master at his craft and we are the lucky recipients.

[@joannasnedden]

Wow!!! I love the way you broke this down!!!

[@walkerig1]

IMHO the Tale of Jenny and Screech is a Three Act Shakespearian Tragedy, in the style of the wondering minstrel bard. Ren has self identified his music as bard core, so that is confirmed. This is an ancient style of music; that goes right back through the wondering minstrel bards of the middle ages. The works of Chaucer sung in the Wife of Bath's ale house. The north African "Bearded Man" a travelled person, wondering from house to house, tent to tent and hearth to hearth; singing songs, telling tales of far off lands, and the national news or the local news from the nearest big city, for a meal and place to sleep. And back to the Dark Ages of Anglo Saxon epic poetry of Beowulf, on through the Greek Homeric tales of The Iliad and The Odyssey and the beginning of the Choir. This form of story telling probably goes all the way back to Ugg twanging his Bow to woo the Chiefs Daughter to follow him into the fields of barley or complain about the Chief stealing the meat from his hunt, at the hut of the Widow Ale Wife, where he and others would congregate to let off steam and tell tales of epic hunts; to then draw on the local cave walls, like the graffiti in The Tales. The music acted in part as interlude/intro as well as melodic emphasis and sound effects for the story. And right up to the modern busker, on the street corner or the subway, playing for a few coins and some smiles. I love Ren and Samuel's use of locational reverb in the sound production, something that instantly stood out to me as a sound engineer and producer. They also got lucky with the Seagulls in part of the song which then was deliberately left in and emphasized in the mix. There was also throughout the acting and and staging all done live! All of this indicates the intellectual level of the performance production in this piece of art. And then for a cherry on the top of the cake Ren, Shyamalan-ed us all...

[@joannasnedden]

WOAH!!!! That was so cool to read!!! You’re right!! It is truly an art that he has created for us!!!

[@marknich1577]

If you've not seen it already money game 1,2 and 3 is a must ❤

[@joannasnedden]

I haven’t seen it yet 😊 Thank you for your suggestion!

[@marknich1577]

@joannasnedden I'll look forward to your reaction on that then 😁

[@Hear2helpu754]

Love your reaction. You should keep your window of you larger. You are too pretty to make you that small and we love to watch people's expressions as they discover Ren's genius. There is a lot more to chose from and you can't go wrong with Ren or his previous bank, The Big Push.

[@joannasnedden]

Thank you 😊 I appreciate the feedback! I won’t make myself small again 😄😂 I am so excited to go on this journey!

I missed it, sorry I'm late. #Renagades

Never late! Welcome 😄

[@Codex7777]

The music audio was a bit off. Not a criticism, just thought you'd want to know. :)

[@joannasnedden]

Thank you! I’m not sure what that’s happening. The streaming application I’m using is supposed to be really good. I am going to try and get another to see if that fixes it :)

[@dondavis3025]

❤good one.

[@joannasnedden]

Thank you 😄

[@AlSnoopsReid]

Please keep the box you are in back to being bigger again as we are watching these videos to see your reaction to them. We have probably seen all of Ren's videos a hundred times or more.

[@garysherwin3316]

Good reaction 🇬🇧

[@dougoneill7266]

I don't understand a lot of things, one of which is why you would give the twist at the end of this trilogy away at the opening of the vid? strange.

[@joannasnedden]

I hear what you’re saying! I didn’t think it gave anything away! This is the first comment I’ve received saying that. I also assume most people watching these reactions have already seen what I’m reacting to. Especially because it came out so long ago! I will definitely keep what you said in mind for the next video! Thank you.

[@longkesh1971]

@@joannasnedden Great reaction and I truly appreciate what you do and realize some people can not be nice on the Internet. So, now that is out of the way, there was a guy that apologized for doing a reaction video on Ren with no editing. No shocked face thumbnails. Just bared bones with long monologues going into detail and he blew up fast. He suddenly disappeared and haven't seen him since last year, but if you want to not follow the usual digital marketing guru advice, you might actually thrive better without it, because its been done before on Ren reactions. Peace, love, and hope your channel keeps growing.

[@joannasnedden]

⁠@@longkesh1971Wow! Thank you for this comment 😇 Yes. I do realize how mean people can be on the internet. It’s actually why I abandoned my channel for a long while. I am so much stronger now and can take the comments now. Wow!!!! You know what? I might try that for my next video. I really do appreciate that style of marketing. It’s so natural and genuine: I wouldn’t even call it marketing. It’s just real. I think I will give it a go this evening when I film. Thank you for letting know about that. I wonder where he went?? Wow thank you :) I hope my channel keeps growing as well! My goal is 100k subscribers. It would be a dream come true for me …. I hope you have a great day :)

[@dougoneill7266]

@@longkesh1971 I wasn't being mean, just genuinely puzzled.

[@stevehorton3581]

We've all seen Ren's videos and we want to see someone experience him for the first time. Your tiny window showing you reaction kind of defeats the whole purpose. Make it larger Joanna. Great reaction!

[@joannasnedden]

Thank you! I totally understand and appreciate you letting me know. The reason why I did that is because every time I made the window bigger, I would lag very bad. It only stopped when I made the window small 😢😢😢 Ugh I agree. I will figure this out and it will not happen again. Thank you for letting me know

[@jasonremy1627]

Now you need some happy Ren. Try his Love Music series. 4 videos. Very different vibe.

[@pollyg562]

what were you thinking? putn the twist at the start

[@MaxwellMoore-d1u]

Hiya , Id Recommend Ren & Liv Sangster " Im in Love " Live studio sessions. Its best jamming ive ever seen. To be honest all the Artists Ren performs with are Fantastic .Enjoy your journey down Rens Rabbit Hole .

[@qosimodo1]

Ren is not a cult. Honest he's not. Maybe just a bit.

[@xenoxaos1]

Definitely pick up KZbin premium... Everything is ad free and makes yt so much better

[@joannasnedden]

Great idea! Thank you!!!

[@NightFogFilms]

Why would you put the most anticipated reaction we are all waiting for at the start of your video?

[@joannasnedden]

I guess for me it wasn’t the most anticipated part of the reaction. I hear what you’re saying though. I’ll keep your comment in mind for my next video. Thank you!

[@NightFogFilms]

@@joannasnedden No worries. It usually is the most anticipated reaction we are all waiting for... the twist. Yes, we love watching the entire reaction as well. It won't happen again as there are no other twist ending songs. The other thing is captions on Ren for his performance pieces are frowned upon but some people need them. Good reaction though. Thank you.

JENNY AND SCREECH WERE BROTHER AND SISTER. Did you grasp that???!!!

[@joannasnedden]

Yes I did. It’s mind blowing…… I mentioned it in the part where my mic wasn’t on lol. I did a voice layover where my mic was off.

[@indiecab9593]

@ oh, good, too many reactors seem to sleep on that, and on the indicators that Jenny was a streetwalker who “wanted to escape.”

[@legendaryod1147]

I like your reaction and can we be friends

[@pixelscaper]

Why would u do that preview and ruin the twist for all your viewers seeing this for the first time as well?

[@joannasnedden]

Sorry. I didn’t think it would… I appreciate the feedback though.

[@antiqueinsider]

Hmm. You renamed the songs and then didn't even get the punctuation correct?!
