[@sigally]

You are the only one who can articulate what Ren does, how he sounds, the structure of his music perfectly and proficiently.

[@PlymouthLad76]

I concur ❤

[@seth1455]

Yeah I like this guy Chris Liepe is also worth a listen

[@sigally]

@@seth1455 I like Chris and watch his reactions.(although he hasn't reacted to this one). He focuses on vocals only. Eric gives the whole picture.

[@Jason_xofilos]

I concur as well.

[@tjh5716]

There s quite a few who are as good as this channel. I agree I want to learn something and I always do here.

[@pointlesslab4179]

The vulgarity combined with the innocence - perfect way to describe Ren’s tone. You nailed it yet again!

[@MoreKellBellPlease]

Yesss, I just came here to comment the same thing! Eric is so good at breaking down/analyzing Ren's musicality. This is a very unique channel.

[@jasonremy1627]

9:14 "the past's idea of the future and the future's idea of the past" This is why I'm subscribed to this channel. There's no one that puts this stuff together like you.

[@deaniegarcia5694]

I am an older lady and the way you explain REN and his talent really makes sense to me! Thank you so much for continuing to critique and react to his work. Subscribed! Good luck on reaching 20K subscribers!

[@smirkingguru]

One-Take "Baby Prince" REN Returns !!!

[@cro55555]

The cool thing about REN is that he does what he wants. He’s not bound to any style or sound. He has also put in the work instrumentally and vocally to be able to give us what’s in his head at that moment. Always a great reaction!!

[@Lynxeye-Youtube]

It's a huge joy, isn't it?!... It's our ARTIST... Ren! So good! Thanks for the reaction.

[@motaman8074]

To me, Ren's vocals are imperfect perfection.

[@bartonbagnes4605]

I love that line about an awkward pause, complete with an awkward pause. Phenomenal vocals. Perfect capture of the 70s vibes.

[@needfree7086]

it's awesome when Ren makes Eric smile. Great reaction

[@markwhitehouse9333]

Every time I watch a reaction to this song, the reactor is listening intently to REN, then the girls start the harmonies, and EVERYONE gets a big smile on their faces. Dope track

[@arielbussart1305]

I tell people all the time that what I love MOST about Ren (besides his ability to speak to my soul through music) is his genuine-ness. He's the same through his music, interviews, social posts, and live interactions on twitch/YT etc. His friends rave about it too, which makes it even better, that those around him see him the same way we do. It's refreshing in today's society!

[@itsayswithoutgoing9571]

I hope Ren sees your reactions! You’ve got a way of breaking down his songs so much better than most. He’s very involved with many reactors and often comments.

[@MoreKellBellPlease]

"What I see with Ren is a rebuffing of tradition that is welcome, that is longed for, and a new way of doing things." Love that. I think some of it may come with his love for counterculture.

[@memremacm]

Ren has the perfect voice/ tone for any Sting song. ❤️

[@iamsquatty]

Ren has a voice that transcends time. He can put out any genre of music and it all sounds perfect. He's a musical chameleon 😊💜💜

[@MoreKellBellPlease]

I watch so many Ren reactors, but your channel is in a lane of its own. You explain and articulate so much of what I hear! Thank you!

[@ricksurratt9034]

For sure 👍🏽👍🏽🐷✌🏼

[@jeffwright9944]

The past's idea of the future, blended with the futures idea of the past.... That my friend, is a fucking exceptional description I may steal for future conversations about music, and Ren in particular 🙌🏻👏🏻 🇬🇧🔊 I've been waiting for your opinion, never disappointed 👏🏻

[@noelward1367]

I love and completely agree with what you say about Ren's relationship to the idea of "celebrity." For me he's very much a working class guy, a genius at music, who knows how to use modern tools to get his songs out there, but still one of us, a guy who gets his feet dirty as he walks through the mud like we all do. Celebrities often feel like their feet never touch the ground.

[@martinehermans6661]

The expression on your face and the pleased glow your eyes are already speaking!

[@Dragonartykay]

Every time I watch you react to Ren and you breakdown everything. You say exactly what I would say if I had the words. You perfectly say what I want to say. Ren is a once generation artist. Not bound to any Genre. He just loves music. Playing, producing, making and listening to it. He is also able to take us in with him with his performances. It’s just pure genius. Great reaction. 😘😘😘

[@emilianoserranosouza1991]

Another great analysis !!! Amazing performance, Ren is really astounding!!

[@MissMeKate]

I look forward to your Ren analyses because nobody else views and articulates then with your breadth of musical knowledge and radio experience. Thank you for always giving the artist your full attention, and for spending the time to share your insights with us. ❤ The behind the scenes on Patreon said that he only had 10 days from having the idea to filming the video. I wish I knew how he blended two songs that were released 40 years apart and made them feel contemporary to each other, then put a rap in the middle without it feeling too jarring! It's wonderful.

[@abbymathews5088]

I saw the police Synchronicity tour when I was in the 7th grade! I still listen to them. I am in awe of Ren. I cried the first time I heard him. I thought music was basically dead until I found him. Last time I fell in love with a new talent was Jeff Buckley, and we know how that turned out. Great reaction! Thanks. 😉❤️‍🔥✌️

[@jeanwyenberg2774]

I was so looking forward to you reacting to this wonderful music and you didn't disappoint!❤

[@rudyb.]

Great reaction and your description of Ren is very correct & eloquent stated. I have so much respect for this exceptional young man, Ren Gill. I am following his journey as he creates beautiful art.

[@lleldridge1]

This track is so 🔥🔥🔥. Big luv to Kai and the ladies, Sam on camera. Chef's 💋 Thanks for a really great reaction/breakdown, as always!

[@BeccaleemarieBleu]

❤Personal, genuine, and sincere. You’re right, that’s Ren! This was a great reaction, probably one of the best I’ve seen so far!❤

[@carlahelin5203]

Every time I see you react to Ren it’s an automatic sense of excitement followed by play click!

[@joehermanson_]

Great reaction… this is one I’d love Ren to see. He’s one of the good ones.

[@Lou-xq9br]

❤ #ren He is just outstanding 🖤

[@tomothywalker]

Yeah, loved that analysis Eric - the blend of vulgarity and innocence… Yes. Wow! In the miasma of KZbin banality, you good sir, are a breath of fresh air.

[@ricksurratt9034]

Ditto

[@b.2775]

Best reaction: The smile on your face while enjoying the music... more than 1000 words... besides I loved your comment... greets from Hamburg

[@belgand5555]

I was waiting on this reaction… thank you … you explained it perfectly… Enjoyed your reaction and always appreciate your appreciation of Ren… 🫶🏻x

[@aaronsebastian5156]

Love your reactions and insights. I think Ren's illness and struggles have allowed him to stay grounded and have that "innocence" that you spoke about. He has a drive and passion that isn't clouded or directed by wealth or industry bigwigs. It's him just loving music, whether it's his or other artists, and making the most of his time and energy that he has to create and share what he loves.

[@user-du7pb3do4g]

Wow. Loved your breakdown of Ren as an artist. I’m sure it’s been mentioned, but Ren is also a huge Police fan.

[@GJStone-tf7vl]

Love it when u put your radio dj voice on. ❤🐰🐷🤓

[@terrieb13]

Exceptional review of an exceptional performance! Thanks for that. ☮️❤️😎

[@LarsPallesen]

I very much agree with Eric that Ren has come up with his own unique approach to being a celebrated star. The way he always stays grounded and the way he interacts sincerely with his audience is really inspiring. I think his years of busking have taught him something important that he's drawing upon now.

[@miggy051]

Great reaction buddy! Your breakdowns of Ren's music are always on point. Cheers mate.

[@cherylmack1260]

Your explanation about the past imagining itself to be the future and the future trying to describe the past. It was the best review yet! I think that is why he is so popular with all generations of music lovers. He touches us all in some way even if we don't understand it. His songs and his voice has bought me back into the fold of falling in love with music once again. I pretty sure I had lost that love along the way but he has inspired me to seek and love it once again.

[@kevbruce9191]

Your analysis of music is top notch 👌 Ren is definitely a swiss army knife of music. ❤

[@tommywalker6458]

Great reaction. Agree with everything you said... watch alot of reactions and have to agree with everything you said. Ren has the lot and it's so refreshing ❤

[@OjayCore]

You have a great tone of voice it’s like a radio dj! Great reaction

[@AlSnoopsReid]

I very much enjoy the way you do your reactions so this 70 yr old Scotsman has decided to sub. Keep it up my friend.

[@lulumeto]

Hi east side of Nashville, Central Arkansas here. I love Ren's music and your comments are brilliant. Sharing a link to Ren Rabbit Hole fans so maybe we can get you to that 20,000 mark. They will love you❤

[@DogDocKat]

Really enjoyed your breakdown and analysis of this one! I completely agree with your description of Ren and his tone. I love Ren and his performance in this was fantastic. Thanks for this 💜💜

[@velvetindigonight]

A different kind of reaction vid! Thank you for explaining ‘the process’ to Ren’s musicianship and popularity…….. appreciated. Succinct and calm. Thank you

[@barboelter]

As a mature (okay old) person the one thing I've always enjoy about Ren's music is the way he does a lot of covering of the some of the greats of the past. I'm not a big rap fan but what Ren does is always easy to enjoy and understand, and in my opinion has a lot more meaning than most of todays rap.

[@Peacetrain66]

Great reaction and perfect description of Ren! His secret ingredient is his passion. So great and so humble. Makes us love him all the more!❤

[@sampanther8854]

Wow you sound like poetry explaining everything about Ren and his talents. Very impressive and appreciated thank you and good luck with subs 👍👌❤️

[@user-qn3lv5jr8x]

Love your reviews.

[@maddalenacherchi]

UNIC, CULTUR , THANK YOUR GREAT REACTION. love from ITALY- ❤💙💚

[@franticfish1644]

I love how you articulated what makes Ren so beloved by so many of us. Thanks for this reaction, enjoyed it very much - and that's a sub from me. Looking forward to more.

[@Proud.American58]

I saw The Police on the Synchronicity tour as well. Saw them in Hartford, CT and R.E.M. opened for them. It was a great concert and The Police performed “Walking in Your Footsteps” which is one my favorite songs of theirs.

[@franny6591]

Thank you for your reaction brother thank you. You are so real ❤❤❤❤❤😘😘😘from France 🇫🇷

[@ready__to__fall]

I’ve seen many reactions on this but waited for you to jump on it. Really love your view on Rens music. Great reaction, Eric! 🎶

[@Tessimistic420]

Beautifully said ❤

[@annebiebrich9155]

Your description of Ren's masterful art is so colorfully voiced ! Perfect ! ❤😊

[@davidweaver7715]

great reaction, I appreciate your thoughts and this is such a great song

[@dunny2000]

Loved your thoughts on this and your excellent articulation of those thoughts. Ren loves to set the tone for a piece immediately in the opening bars and is a master at pulling it off. Thank you.

[@sammyd8860]

Love your analysis, as always you are spot on. Something I would add is the love and respect that Ren always shows to the music he is playing, and the musicians he is creating that music with. He often breaks into a smile when his collaborator does something he likes (he did it at least once in this video at the backing singers). And his ego is nowhere to be seen - he just gets lost in the joy of creating/sharing that with others.

[@MalcolmMXTaylor]

Wow great reaction dude! The creativity and variation of styles always surprises me as we really have no idea what we are gonna get! Just amazing!

[@Rickro72]

The police is the first cassette I had.theywete a great band with a great sound.✌️🤙

[@MizCriz46]

Another way it's new/old is that "Back On 74" is new by Jungle mashed with The Police.

[@libby215]

Solid analysis - an essay in fact: stating your observations and then backing them up with examples. I always look out for your channel 🌻

[@user-to2yi3hr3o]

Tell me he's NOT channeling a lil' Smokey Robinson in his head voice -- right?? And the subtle move to Message before the 2nd verse of Back On 74 via the guitar like is genius... already setting us up. Plus the Easter Eggs in the rap... Tina Turner, Angelina, Tomb Raider, Green -- golf/spliff plus the Nas reference with the .. pause. Brilliant !!

[@louisemyles4971]

Wonderful review. Always enjoy watching with you and hearing whatchu got to say❣️

[@JulieAiken]

Great reaction. "Unique and magnificent" are definitely two perfect adjectives for Ren and his music. I never saw The Police but I did see Sting on his Dream of the Blue Turtles tour, and he was, of course, phenomenal. Thanks!

[@TheWyldesidewithEricClark]

Saw Sting open for the Dead in Vegas and Bruce Hornsby was playing keyboards for the Dead! It wasn't announced beforehand, tickets always just said "Special Guests" because they never knew who they could get. About 4 or 5 minutes into the show, you could tell everyone had the same thought, "Holy shit...is that Sting?" He didn't play any Police stuff and very little solo stuff. It was this cool but strange Jazz/Fusion collection of old songs. I guess he got a contact high and just forgot his set list, I dunno. But it was a good show. Cheers, Eric

[@M0S3ST0NE]

Incredible technical insightfull reaction.. What an experience listening to your knowledge of music, I was blown away.

[@salishseamermaid]

Always love your Ren reactions.

[@wanmac31]

Ren is ewrythng 🪄🎼🦄✨ 🤘😊👍🇫🇮💙

[@dawnpatterson8708]

Very very well said. ❤🤗❤

[@jorice5528]

Brilliant reaction/insights - thoroughly enjoy your channel & knowledge Eric. You’re face tells the story 😊 They’re all good from Ren, but this one gets me extra exited for what’s to come from the, ill say it, Genius that is Ren 😊🥰

[@nicholefraser9762]

Yessss 🎉 I was thinking about you when I was watching the premiere. I’m glad you did it so soon ❤

[@sweeneyastray5426]

Wow! 🔥 Brilliant analysis and explanation of Ren's creativity and uniqueness.

[@leann60]

🔥🔥

[@BLew657]

Is there no end to this lads talent? He sounded more like Sting than Sting did 😂

[@optimistinmyprime]

Rebuffing of tradition, or status quo 💯 Great vid, thanks

[@livibam]

Superb stuff here.. perfectly said

[@botlus4727]

A very good breakdown of the song like always. Thank you like always. Cheers from Berlin 👍🍀😎

[@ricksurratt9034]

I definitely enjoy your Ren reactions… with all your reactions too

[@Av3rageD4D]

Thank you Eric for another brilliant breakdown and listen to Ren. I appreciated your time and review. I always seem to learn something new and it helps me understand music and the artist a bit better. Much love and have a great day!

[@valeriedonaghy701]

Wow loved your analysis of Ren and the song, so well said ❤

[@davehinton4587]

As usual excellent review. Still can't believe that no Ren or Chinchilla, at all is played on British radio. I assume that all the spots are paid for by promoters, might explain the amount of auto-tune! I am surprised that so far there has been no reaction to Chinchilla only songs: Little girl gone, Cut you off, Trigger, Terms & conditions, Lock down get down or Ren & Sam Blind eyed MC sessions.

[@NZWozza]

Also no nominations in the Brit awards either, and no interview with Opera. Maybe it’s because he raps about violence and depression.

[@themojoslide]

When his album sick boi was released he got radio play on BBC radio 1 amongst others. Not sure if he sent his earlier material to BBC introducing, I'm assuming he did and it got lost in the thousands of song applications they get.

[@gingerroo123]

Really enjoyed your reaction. 💛💛💛

[@sharoncarlisle9453]

Your reactions are always so insightful and articulate. I really enjoy watching them.

[@Tearnofear]

gonna say it before watching: you'll absolutely love this one :) *edit* yay i was right^^ I mean, not that hard to guess. You don't have to like the Song but you can't deny the musicality of the Song and the profession of Ren.

[@mickmccarthy952]

Perfectly put

[@jeannewolfe4489]

Love the way you came in after the song ended-just like my DJ memories! Nice reaction.

[@Marloc2420]

Thank you for your knowledge in your reaction.

[@def_not_dan]

I'm calling it Retro-futuristic retroism.

[@DusCostea-kt1dg]

Great breakdown 👍. If you haven't already try the Big Push RENdition of Englishman in New York 🎵🎶🍯🤌🔥💪🙏🐝🍀

[@petesparrow4101]

Love your reactions

[@bluebird1109]

Excellent reaction!

[@jamiemacdonald6899]

Another great review. Well done sir.

[@craigbuschlejr.3934]

Your shirt is the greatest thing I've ever seen! Arguably my favorite show, currently in my 13th-ish rewatch. That shirt plus a Ren reaction, nothing beats this! 🎉

[@craigbuschlejr.3934]

Also, obligatory roller skate speedo guy... "WE'RE ALL GLUED TO A TOILET SEAT CALLED EAAAARRRRTH!"

[@denalinde]

Had to go back & watch you enjoy this one a second time. 💜

[@seagull01-cp8pb]

Fascinating analysis.💕👍🦇

[@ZeScorpion]

Superb reaction as always.🍻
