Ren - Hi Ren (pianist reacts to metalhead friend’s suggestion)

[@andrelaguna5494]

"I am the voice that you hear when you loosen the noose on a rope". Finally somebody analyzed what is arguably THE BEST line in the entire song.

[@LuxFuxx]

To me it's the "I stood in your flames and cremated my brain, and I didn't once flinch or shake. So cower at the man I've become, as I sing from the top of my lungs. That I won't retire, I'll stand in your fire and inspire the meek to be strong." Chills every time.

[@teenamcmichael782]

You need to hear the whole part to appreciate it. I go by many names also, some people know me as hope. Some ppl know me as the voice that they hear when they loosen the noose on the rope. Ren is a genius.❤

[@andrelaguna5494]

This final section of the song, just after the evil voice, has some incredible verses. I agree with you guys both, LuxFuxx and teenanmcmichael. This section elevates the narrative in such a way that it makes us cry just by listening to it, especially when it is performed by Ren. It is sublime.

It was a mirror. He's a talented musician/actor/singer. He used all of those talents to get the world to look into that mirror. We all saw ourselves in this song/performance. We all saw our own battle. Ren probably didn't intend for it to be but that's what it is.

I've watched so many reactions to this. I've never watched reactions to anything before, but nothing has affected me like this before, and I want to see how it is affecting other people. I think this is the most honest and true piece of art I've ever experienced. I would love to see you watch the "Jenny, Screech and Violet" trilogy. Fantastic video guys. Thanks.

[@petrilampela]

10:20 this 47 year old man still cries relentlessly every time. This is a masterpiece. One voice, one guitar, no real melody hooks, verses or choruses. So how can it be? I guess some people just have the magic. Many times I've cursed that all great music has been done already and then out of nowhere something like this comes out. Like a superhero to save the day.

[@LaughingStock_]

A short time before I discovered REN, I discovered an equally unique, phenomenal talent: Aldous Harding.

[@jmart9414]

Found Ren about 5 months ago. Just happened upon him. BRILLIANCE ⭐💛

[@scottwatson9453]

I loved how you were physically shocked by the "loosen the noose "line ..not that many reactors flinch at that line ..I think they are just bedazzled by Ren's brilliance so I overlook it.but I get happy when I see reactors get punched in the face by that line coz its a hard hitting line .

[@christelsegbars1630]

Dear beautiful humans, that was great to see. Ren speaks to everybody by his music... a lot of people get emotional .... warm hug from a stranger from the Netherlands ❤

That one line "the voice that you gear when you loosen the noose on the rope" is one of the most powerful lines I've heard. He's a genius. The Jenny and Screech trilogy is another emotional attack!

the line is more powerful when you hear it right "the voice that you hear when you're loose in the noose on the rope" the door has dropped but the rope aint come tight yet.

[@BrotherPraetus]

@@rritter6341 that's not the lyric, it's "Some people know me as the voice that you hear when u loosen the noose on the rope" as stated in Ren's own lyric post on the official video; meaning people who were at the precipice of ending it and, last minute, stepping back from that ledge and choosing to go on.

[@endlessrage4062]

Indeed, as the Chalk Outlines line, “on the gallows I’m balanced on my toes so I can breathe….” Very poignant. A great artist, really nice to hear some genuine musicianship in this time, with conscience and authenticity.

[@barrycallan2784]

Captivating reaction. One of the most beautiful reactions I have seen to this composition. From the moment Ren stood up, the eyebrow raise, the goosebumps and the obvious emotional reaction..... How could you not!? Be still. Be well.

[@elwray3506]

Great and honest reaction, gentlemen. Loved the doubling down on the cheerful "Hi Ren" from the beginning at the end...it came with a sigh the second time.

[@JensRandolff]

Here is some additional information on Ren's story that I gathered from old newspaper interviews, articles, and Ren's public livestreams and posts. A handful of people frequently post an earlier version of my comment to various reactions that they copied and pasted verbatim, so if this is a repeat just ignore this comment. I keep editing the information, as needed, and have removed details about Ren that some found to be too personal, such as his full name and D.O.B. All the information here was gathered exclusively from sources Ren personally approved for public release. Ren is a British musician/independent artist/producer, self-taught multi-instrumentalist; originally from Wales. Ren pursued a career in music from an early age. In 2009, while studying music performance at Bath Spa University, Ren began to experience health issues and was struggling to attend his lectures, which eventually caused him to discontinue his studies and return home. In addition, Ren was signed by Sony Records in 2010 and was working on an album when his health deteriorated to the point that he was unable to go on; consequently, his contract with Sony was dissolved. Ren would later relocate to Brighton. Ren's illness often kept him in bed for up to 23 hours daily. Ren was initially misdiagnosed with depression, bipolar disorder, and chronic fatigue syndrome, which led him to experience psychosis and develop PTSD. It would take seven years before a doctor in Belgium finally correctly diagnosed Ren with autoimmunity, Lyme disease, and resulting damage to the brain, organs, joints, and PTSD. Ren eventually underwent stem cell therapy in the United States, which improved his health, but it has not been a cure. Ren is in Calgary, Canada for at least six months (Summer of 2023), undergoing treatments such as IV therapy and other interventions five days a week, as well as surgeries (wisdom tooth removal and cavitation surgery). His Canadian doctor discovered that Ren also developed a condition called Mast Cell Activation Disorder (MCAD), which has affected the myelin sheath in his brain, his thyroid, and adrenals as well as his bones/joints. Hence, Ren is receiving additional treatments for this previously undiagnosed condition. He recently took a break from treatments and returned to the UK to visit family and friends, and to produce some very ambitious musical projects to be released soon. Let's keep supporting Ren as he undergoes his treatments. Check out and subscribe to his channel; if you are a content creator, ask your audience to subscribe to Ren. Ren's YT channel just surpassed 1 million subscribers. and his videos have garnered millions and millions of views. Listen to some of his earlier work, like and comment on his performances, and let's lift Ren's spirits. If you are a believer, pray for him. Ren is an artist with something to say to the world, and his work is important in these troubling times. Someone has finally created a Wikipedia page for Ren, so there is additional information available.

Bravo! It was a pleasure to watch your reaction to Hi Ren. That line with “the voice that you hear when you loosen the noose on the rope” I’ll be especially curious to catch your reaction to The Tales of Jenny, Screech and Violet (in that order).

[@Greatmeasures]

[@komeroshishoganai]

Good job guys! Ren is always an excellent choice for this type of content, and hearing prepared and musically trained people analyze his music is always fantastic, especially on first listen, on first impact

[@verified.my2cents]

Spot on first reaction - Ren has written and delivered a master operatic work that is only still getting discovered by the masses. I firmly believe the legs this piece has will carry it to millions and carry Ren to performances all over the globe as his health continues to recover. Thanks for this.

[@djmoon8373]

It is so inspirational to watch the affect that Ren's work has on people. Not a specific age group, not one sex over another, not a race or culture, or a specific religion. But rather, the impact that it has on every single person that is introduced to it regardless of their details. It truly is an incredible thing to watch. I have never seen an artist with the ability to have such a deep impact on the lives of such a variety of people the world over. No matter how many people get behind an artist, they always still have a long line-up of haters as well. It seems that Ren haters are few & far between. If you do find one, their probably just trolling, and in truth, are in just as much awe of the sick boi as the rest of us. My only hope is that he doesn't ever allow all the positive comments & feedback overwhelm him, and cause him to think that he has to live up to expectations of his audience. It's beautiful to see all the positive comments that people leave on here, but if your Ren, they can also create a great deal of pressure, in making you think that you have to live up to peoples expectations, or step it up a notch over your last performance. How can he be expected to do so, when so much of what he produces is so very far ahead of everyone else already?

[@Jonkon75]

I had to leave a comment after watching this incredible this reaction. I have been following Ren since “Hi Ren” first came out and have watched dozens and dozens of reactions to this and I have to say, this was the most visually emotional response I have seen. Normally I can spot when the reactor physically falls in love with Ren, and this was no different. I could see the reactor physically evolving with the song. His eyebrows, his breathing, his inclination to not look away. This one felt almost like an instant connection was made by his rapture to the video, “But settle on the ocean floor” and he looked over mouth agape and eyebrows raised, that moment right there… the connection made artist to artist was truly sublime. As many said, and you responded, I am impatiently awaiting the Tales reaction as well as Chalk Outlines. Well done gentleman, well done.

This was wonderful to see - especially the voice/noose line because it's such a powerful line and it's delicious to see a fellow sensitive soul feel the full brunt of that impact like so many of us have.

You both can, and so you have my sub for sure. As others have said, it would be wonderful to see you both react to the full version of the Tales of Jenny and Screech for yet another operatic masterpiece.

I'm loving this guy on the right. Not sure why but he just resonates with me. More reactions to Ren pleeeease. Love it!

This is a piece of art, a masterpiece. This young man is a beautiful genius PERIOD

[@angiedeans6410]

Yes he is brilliant and transparent in what he's going through and the real struggles with mental illnesses. I am glad that I found his talent on utube by a reaction video by another.

You should react to the song For Joe, if anything for the piano part of that song. Go down the Ren rabbit hole, you will not be disappointed!

Wow. He he is so talented. I appreciate his words. Reading his story just gives a small glimpse into his life. Chills…

I totally agree and I said it before. It is opera. Powerful stuff. You're the first reaction video I've seen where the viewer watched the whole thing without incessant stoppages and commentary
