Stacey stating "I think I'm emotionally ready for this" as she hits play on Violet's Tale and me screaming Nooooooooooooo! You're not! 😭

[@Cdaddy78]

I thought the same. Violet's tale is the - press on the gas, foot off the brakes portion. 😅

[@frontfit]

I was thinking exactly the same thing. Yikes.

[@clarissathompson]

Omg, same!

[@melissatodd560]

Ikr?!? Same

[@celtzen]

I can make it through the first two - Violet breaks me... and my thought was much the same, no one who is vaguely human can be emotionally ready for especially Violet...

[@rexrogers1859]

Im an old man and I cried with you even though I've seen this numerous times. You have a good heart. Thank you

[@henrik.norberg]

As a big "hard ass" 51 yo man I did the same. I so truly hate domestic violence that I normally get more angry than sad, but she turned on my water falls...

[@Bearlissimo]

11:17 "I think I'm ok, I think I'm ready" Renegades know that no one is ever in fact ready...

[@celinel9750]

Yep I had the same reflection on minde: Ho no lady you're not ready. I guess we are here for that ;-)

[@justinv4638]

Totally! I’ve seen many reactors verbalize that they think they’re prepared for what is next. Us RENegades know they are not which is why we watch. Well done. Just found you and subscribed.

[@Tokin420]

Yes thats y i dont watch those reactors that start with violets tale first. It don't hit as hard without them all as a whole

[@MikeR_NZ]

That point at 13:56 with "I'm sure her mother knew" Stacey gets the first inkling that she may not be ready

[@DenTweed]

I had a narrator voice in my head going "Little did she know, she definitly wasn't ready" lol

[@kevinmclaughlin8975]

Ren & Chinchilla "Chalk Outlines" and "How to be Me". Live versions for both. And never, never, apologize for being human.

[@celinel9750]

not yet, we'll broke her, she need a break ;-)

[@rafcassauw4864]

You should check those 2 numbers with Chinchilla ❤greetings from Belgium 🇧🇪 loved your reaction

Both are great yes

[@synp9ynir]

Agree, except that I prefer the music video version of Chalk Outlines

[@dustinmacphee]

[@Heartstrings234Skyla]

I agree with you 💯 the new performance is absolutely fantastic.

[@SaSo2k]

The trilogy is one of the reasons why the Renegades call his music "BardCore". He has simply created his own genre. But now you really deserve a break from serious Ren and should also take a look at the other side of him 😉

When I first heard Ren I couldn't stop watching reactions. I didn't understand why I liked them so much... It's because I could never experience that magic the same way I did the first time but through others it's close... Your reaction was amazing and brought me right back to the first time. Thank you for experiencing it with me! 😊

I feel your feels girl. That’s what Ren do. Okay, Ren was with a street band: The Big Push. They busked on the streets of Brighton, UK. Please watch his Mashup cover of Bob Marley’s, “I Shot The Sheriff”, Damian Marley’s, “Road To Zion”, Dead Prez, “Hip Hop”. You get see Ren perform live. A happier time. A beautiful reaction btw.

good choice, good fun on the streets with great music

[@dropbarracuda]

First off, I want to thank you for posting your reaction to the Tales. ❤ Ren's music has opened up so many doors for open, non-judgmental discussion on VERY difficult topics. I've never seen anything like it, but the comments sections for reactions to Ren's music have become places where the Renegades have connected with and spread love, support, and strength to others through shared experience. I've seen well over 100 reactions to Hi Ren and The Tales over the past year, and I can say that your reactions are among my absolute favorite because you connect with both the music and your audience so naturally. Welcome to the Renegades, you are so very welcome here.

[@Kenai2008]

Hello Stacey ... Ren has an effect on people that is indescribable. We all cried with you ... Ren's cameraman (Samuel Perry-Falvey) is an artist in his craft as well and helps these productions immensely. This trilogy is a tough one, emotionally. I think it is so powerful because it openly discusses generational domestic violence. We all know it goes on more than we would like to know, but it is hardly ever discusssed. This song was written in two parts. Jenny's Tale and Screech's Tale were written first ... Ren found it incomplete, and a couple of years later he wrote Violet's Tale to tie them together into a true Shakespearean Tragedy. His song writing is incredible and you will notice the correlation of Jenny who was silent, like her mother Violet, and Screech was violent like his father (Stevie or Violet's father?) I am glad you are taking the traditional "path" of introduction to Ren. Your next "emotional" reaction should be "Ren X Chinchilla - Chalk Outlines (live)" which will introduce you to another incredible independent artist "Chinchilla". She is Ren's musical sibling (nothing romantic). She is a rabbit-hole of music worth exploring as well. Bring tissues ... Ren does have some super "Fun" songs as well. If you want to see a different side of Ren I would suggest: Losing It, Power, The Hunger, Murderer. He can rap rap ... very well. Your reaction was honest and raw and much appreciated ... much love!

[@Jonkon75]

Humble and Ocean featuring Eden are both AMAZING

[@simonerm76]

A Fun/uplifting One by Ren ”Losing It” ✌🏻

[@williamparrish9954]

in Voilet tale he does the Rewind sound on guitar to go back in time then later on does it to go forward to the present time

[@williamparrish9954]

Ren got the idea for Jenny tale from a news paper he read about a 14 year old boy that kill a young streetwalker with a knife

[@joshuawiedenbeck6944]

"London city, far from pretty, 2-0-0-5." The real life event happened in 2005.

[@jennetscarborough5145]

[@estebanacevedo9826]

You said it, he is SO talented. And we are lucky to share it because he didn't gave up.

[@hellscornalien8286]

I love your honest emotional reactions to Ren. I had to sub to follow you on your journey down the Ren rabbit hole. You've had the tiniest of tastes of what he's capable of just watching the two songs. Ren has a number 1 album out in the UK. He's impossible to nail down to a single Genre. He's a master of hip-hop, rap, rock, punk, reggae, bardcore, ballads, and pop. His catalogue is pretty big and then he has amazing stuff with his former band (hopefully getting back together) The Big Push. He plays the electric and acoustic guitar (obviously), piano, drums, bass & the melodica. He produces his own beats, beat-boxes sings like an angel and writes as well as anyone I've ever listened to. You've heard a couple of heavy emotional pieces. For fun songs, you should try Love Music #1, #2, #3 & #4. It's for songs all about how much he loves music. Losing It is a fun one as well. For heartfelt ballads, try his 2 collaborations with Chinchilla, How To Be Me (live) and Chalk Outlines (live) For a rock song try Fire. For hip-hop try Wicked Ways, Seven Sins and Lost All Faith. For Rap try Illest Of Our Time, Animal Flow, and The Hunger. Oh and you can't miss the 2 songs Ren did with Eden Nash, Humble and Ocean. There's tons more songs I didn't even bother listing. I haven't heard a single song that wasn't good. I can't wait to see how shocked you are when you see other styles he does. I'm glad to have stumbled upon your channel. Peace and love.

[@motostacker3321]

Appreciate your reaction. I'm a huge Ren fan but would point out that massive hard work = Talent...Ren has worked soo hard and gotten past many obstacles to get where he is. Keep up on your great reactions and hope to see more Ren amongst them.

[@McLeod2022]

He is a massive talent with an amazing crew... he on his own is top shelf but his crew, the videographers the soundscapes... the man has a Team. He might be the General but they fight the fight right alongside. His success showed when he did money game III... the man is investing in himself and his people. Never seen such an artist in my last 20 years.

[@sigally]

Through your honest emotions I get relive mine. It's amazing to me how Ren can take his intention with his music and how he let's us into the world he creating. We can feel what he wants us to feel. It's unusual for me to feel connected to an artist through music and not the music through art. That's what makes Ren, so extraordinarily gifted. He is a gift to the people. It's always hard to articulate that thing Ren has.

[@McLeod2022]

Your first sentence is truth. ☮☮ & 💜💜. Thank you for making me smile and being a light in a sometimes dark room. You.. ... are fantastic. Made my day better just by being ja.

[@mikeconway9849]

These tales are such an emotional ride. You are correct, he is a masterful storyteller and can paint pictures with his words. Great reaction, Stacey!

[@jvnbrk]

Cried with you girl, I haven’t heard this song in like a year and just been revisiting reactions and you felt this. Nice watching it with you 💯

[@Damonicus1]

"I think I'm ready for this" Oh no, no, no you are not. I've seen this story multiple times, and I'm not ready for it. Thank you for your pure emotion in reacting to this. Ren is the master of story telling that we have never had the pleasure of seeing before, and the way you reacted to this story is testament to that.

[@robertproctor9747]

I was impressed by your courage to continue in the face of your emotions. To be honest, I had to stop several times to gather myself. Loved the reaction. I will be here for more.

[@petermalin2675]

Thank you for this heartfelt response to this masterpiece. I just subscribed. Now for something completely different by Ren, try “Power” or “Losing It”. A bit more of fun Ren. So much more to discover of this once in a generation artist.

[@Av3rageD4D]

Thank you so much for finding Ren on your musical journey!!! I have not heard another artist as versatile as Ren…. He reminds me of one of those “one person band” type of people, where he can do it all. Looking forward to what is next! Much love and have a great day!

[@YorkshireRippler]

Great reaction...Hi Ren and this trilogy has had me in tears many times. He also has had me in tears of laughter with other songs. For a lighter side of Ren try 'Losing it' and the Love music series is guaranteed to put a smile on your face.

absolutely agree! i would also suggest anything by Rens band "the big push". i promise you won't be disappointed! much love to you and yours.

Ren truly is a once in a lifetime artist and it’s so amazing how affectionately invested he is with those that follow his music.

The Tales are a masterpiece that need to be studied in universities, I’ve done a playlist on my YT covering all the main characters and the many Easter Eggs in these tales that help pull it all together,

[@user-qm1bp1mu3z]

This man is Bard! 👌👌

[@joshdhankins]

I read through a few comments, and didn’t immediately see anyone explaining a little more about Ren. This guy. He’s changed how I see music and songwriting and performing and music videos forever. And getting to know a bit more about him makes you appreciate his work even more. The guy has lived and experienced some difficulties that you have to know about to really understand what he’s doing. When he says in Hi Ren that he “spent half his life ill”, he’s taking about a battle with Lyme disease and misdiagnosis and the toll it took and continues to take on him. Read up a bit about his story. You won’t be able to react to every song he’s ever written, but, map out the next half dozen or so that you want to do, react to them, and then just let yourself listen to EVERYTHING else. He’s just so good. Can’t state enough how much he’s influenced the way I experience music for the last couple years. Glad you found Ren! Keep the videos coming!

[@davidricks7128]

Ren tells the stories and the filming of the stories are all done so well i found myself looking for the bodies laying on the ground. The saddest thing about this is the fact each of these things are happening in every country at this very moment and the cycle continues

[@Eaglefreed1]

Love ❤️ the reaction. I love to see others first reactions to this song, it brings back the feelings of my first view. He is the definition of a true artist in every aspect

[@rodb9275]

Ren is a GOD. I'm so in love with him. I have obviously never met him, but I feel like I would do about anything for him. I feel like he is so important. Your reaction was amazing. You are clearly an empath. I was crying with you, even though I've seen this SO many times. If you check out his other sides, he will blow you away even more. Definitely check him out with his band "The Big Push". And less reacted to, his even older band "Trick the Fox". And then his rap is so important. And his duets with Chinchilla and Sam Tompkins. Seriously, he is just the most amazing newer artist in so long. I totally worship him and am addicted to reactions to him. And OMG he is so EFFING hot

You don't have to be sorry i've seen it now at least 30 times and i'm still in tears every single time.

Man I cried with you I've seen this tons of times but man you had me crying all over the place.

[@paulmo5836]

Brilliant and heartfelt reaction, we've all been there with Ren!! What you said about whether it is the story or the performance that made you cry, that is often how I feel with Ren but I think it is the performance for me as even some of his songs which aren't sad get to me like that. He is just a unique talent and it hits me in a way nobody else's music has. Can't wait to follow as you go further down the Ren rabbit hole, there's so much more to see from him, you've already noticed his talent in different aspects but you still have loads more skills and talents to see. Would love to see you react to one of his interviews that give more insight into his journey and the type of person he is as well, the interview with Zach Sang is a good one. Also the video he made for hitting one million subs is another good one for you to check out.

[@grimloki4276]

Love your reaction to REN..not sure if you have noticed yet but most of REN's "music videos" are done in 1 continuous shot..basically a live performance...such talent!!!!

Jenny's part was based on a newspaper article titled It's a Shame. He found it odd that it wasn't one the front page. It was a proustite killed by a 14 yrs old boy. He wrote Screech's part a couple years later and then Violet's part later to tie it all together.

I've noticed that your absolute favourite artists so far are all from the UK: Led Zeppelin, Pink Floyd, and now Ren. I love how you connect so emotionally to music.

[@Perry_Wolf]

Ren's life has really taken off and he's crazy busy right now. He's currently in Calgary, Alberta, Canada receiving treatments for Lyme Disease, the decade of misdiagnosis of which was the inspiration for his Hi Ren song. But now his album Sick Boi took off and reached the #1 spot, top album in the UK, beating out heavy hitter Rick Astley's newest release, all despite Ren not operating under a signed label and being completely independent! Not sure if that's ever been achieved before. Despite his treatments, and being overwhelmed by his recent success, he's still pumping out songs and videos! With that said, in the first few months of Hi Ren making it's rounds with KZbin reactors, Ren responded to just about every reaction video, thanking the creator for the video. I like to think, that if he weren't so busy now, and he found your reaction videos, he'd like them very much. ☺

[@francisconicolasjohansen9996]

I love your reactions, you are so genuine, expressive and emotional person i´ve see

[@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. 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 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. Also I think you spotted Ren's use of locational reverb in the sound engineering. They also got lucky with the Seagulls in part of the song which then was deliberately left in and emphasized in the mix. All of that indicates the intellectual level of the performance production in this piece of art.

[@highlightspotent127]

When I saw "Hi Ren" I mentioned your compassion and empathy. Watching THIS reaction takes my observation/compliment up several notches. Your obvious fascination during the performance, and your completely open and honest reaction make you a pleasure to watch. You say in your opening that you aren't a "music expert." You don't need to be. I (and others) can go to reactors WITH that expertise if we want to hear detailed dissection of vocal styles and musical 'stuff.' You offer a very different, and very appealing approach to reactions. You share YOU. That's much more engaging. Keep it up! you're doing great! Liked and subscribed. By the way, your emotional reaction literally brought ME to tears as well. That's rare. You have that "something special" about your!!

[@NorthernWayfarer-Alice]

Your reaction to Violet's tale was like mine the first few times that I heard it. From the knock on the door it brings back dark memories... not knowing if you are going to get the kind loving person or the person who has been drinking and is easily angered. The fear of pretending to be asleep and it not working. And when he pinches her eyelids up it puts you in violet's tale. And it is not just your story but all of the other people you have talked to and supported who have experienced DV and all the tales merge into Violet's tale. Ren does such a good job at telling this story. When he became Stevie, he was scary. I've watched hundreds of reactions now and your reaction is one of only two that I felt truly understood the fear of that moment. You would probably appreciate Romain Axisa, the guitar player that used to be part of Ren's band The Big Push, he has a different vibe but he gets completely lost in his music and while his music is beautiful, I just love to watch him get so absorbed and lost in it. It brings a little bit of light to a dark world when watching an artist like that. Ren is awesome and surrounds himself with incredible talent. Take care.

[@BlackWolf-uk2yb]

The story reminds me a lot of one of my favorite Musicals titled 'Blood Brothers'. I've seen it in theatres several times and highly recommend it to anybody that gets a chance to go see it.

These tales always hit me in my feels. As a 38 year old man im not ashamed to admit Ren can get my emotions going so naturally. Your reaction to this was so genuine and i cried along with you despite not having enough fingers and toes to count how many times ive listened to this. Welcome to the wonderful world of Ren. Ive subscribed so i can further enjoy your journey in to Rens world.

** edited because i am me. Ren absolutely breaks me for all the right reasons and lthan ifts me for all the right as well. His Busking is divine. The Big Push red suspender sessions are wonderful. His one takes are supernatural... his signing on a sofa w buds is fantastic. **** Your Channel has a very, Very kind vibe. Danke , Love. I mean that. You made me smile and cry and feel. Love the real intro.. .some of us are just here to be here and share and smile/bitch/grump/love. I am no damn perfect reactor or vocal trainer... I like what informs, entertains, educates, and is silly just because. We NEED to laugh and learn and lean and sometimes fall. Instant Sub'd and Patreon.

lady, I just watched this reaction of yours having seen the trilogy many times, thinking I was emotionally ready for this. I bawled my eyes out yet again. I´m 47 year old male if that matters, yet this just cuts my cord´s so hard.

Good art makes us FEEL. Ren does that better than anyone else I've come across.

Great reaction to this. As someone else said, you have a good heart. It's endlessly nice to see people react to this like a human. I'm sure it's been said, but just in case - jenny and screech were brother and sister. After the death of their mother, the father wasn't around; whether that was because he abandoned them or he was in jail, they would have ended up in foster care. They likely had no idea the other ever existed, because record keeping while itself is already poor; it was equally poor at communicating pretty much anything about someone's roots. Secondly, Screech's friend was with Screech's girlfriend. "For something far more sinister in mind, does await." The basics of the story is true, iirc - at least the story of the mother and how she died and what her condition was. Maybe not twins, but she was pregnant. Her name was changed for the song, but she was real. I believe Ren said he read and remembered the story from a newspaper (?) Or perhaps an article online. He has a really great interview with Black Pegasus, and I think he also has one with The Charismatic Voice.

You have a great heart ❤️ the amount of feeling you feel during this reaction. You’re one of the good ones. Blessed soul

[@egjundis]

I love Ren, and these are some of his most beautiful works... but the story is hard to be with and revisit. Your reaction made it great to hear again. Thank you.

[@danielbracebridge6835]

I love you and love how emotional you are because I’m the exact same. Thank you for experiencing ren and showing your vulnerability. Great reaction

[@laurentyvangurewitch3940]

Lighten the mood a wee bit with Ren's An Englishman in NY. A wonderful cover of Sting's song with Ren's band the Big Push. Then go on to Chalk Outlines and How To Be Me-the video versions, not any live or Lyric video version. Both of the video versions are shot live, also in one take. Love love love your reactions!!

Add The Big Push. Bongo Bong. Fun and catchy as af.🔥🙌

12:25 note how he looks around… the wailing song, sat on a bed with his knees up. I’m convinced he’s acting out the birth scene here. He loves connecting the start and end of his songs with small hints like that.

[@PbPomper]

I'm glad we still have true artists like Ren.

[@-RalphSpencer-]

That reaction deserves a Sub. Here for all of the Ren your willing to do.

[@JayDeeter11]

Amazing channel, thank you 🙏 I can’t tell you how bad I want you to react to all of Ren’s music immediately lol

[@josephjsmith]

Thank you for your reaction to this. You looked like you tensed up a bit during Violet's tale where Ren talked about her father not leaving her room, and then you looked away for a moment at the part about her mother knowing what was happening, as if it was too much for you to think about for a moment. I don't know if this was a trauma response to something you've been through, or if you were simply empathizing with countless victims/survivors. My point is: One thing I've been learning through Ren's songs is that we need more humanity. It will be ugly, scary, and painful, but it will also be beautiful and exciting and is exactly what the world needs. Thank you for sharing your humanity and vulnerability, and for making the world a better place. Since you're on the Ren train, why don't you check out Power. It isn't as heavy as "Hi Ren" or "The Tale of Jenny and Screech", but like them it sends an important message. Much love.

man i just wanted to give you a hug watching this

[@jolewis4382]

It's okay, we ALL cry. 🥹 Many songs on his Freckled Angel's album are light, even funny. I love 'The 90's'
