Swan Song Reaction | The Big Push

[@mysticeyes10000]

I love this song. Your the first reactors I’ve seen react to it. I love their harmonies.

[@Qalibrated]

I listen to A LOT of Ren & The Big Push but first time hearing this, lack of reactions being one of the reasons. The song is awesome!

[@schuhschrank947]

Walterooski did a reaction to this, too.

[@rexrogers1859]

Thank you. This is hauntingly beautiful. I love this song.

[@patisan]

I love this track. I believe it was mostly written by Gorran. The song is pure poetry, great lyrics. They’re all so talented ❤

[@denalinde]

You can definitely tell Ren grew up amongst the ancients of Angelesey. There are big Druid stones everywhere there, including on the farmland where he lived. Growing up in America, I cannot even imagine that. I got excited that I lived near a 1600s crumbling cathedral in AZ that was open to visitors during restoration. Doesn’t take much to please me. Give me some good music & something old & I’m happy. 😊💜

I love this song so much. Its one of my all-time favorite big push songs

[@mary.e645]

❤🙏👍👍

[@rebeccaburnell9319]

oh WOW. This is one I hadn't found on my own yet (I've only showed up in the Ren rabbit hole the past 2 months and haven't made my way through The Big Push's whole catalogue yet). LOVE their choice to go with the melodica.

[@bonnievonbraun6276]

Yeah, just pull out the melodica, as one does. It's a little like a mini accordion, or a concertina, that one blows air into, instead of pumping the bellows. I do love a good hurdy-gurdy, but a melodica is easier to carry around 😊 Nice breakdown of the song, which I had to listen to again because I honestly didn't even hear the words the first time.

[@donmowatt]

As one does ..of course! 🤣 Pretty fun lookin little instrument. Appreciate your comment!! - Yeah I definitely do the same sometimes, certain parts of a first time experience are so enthralling that it's easy to miss other obvious parts 😅

[@iamlpinthe312]

Leave it to Ren! Nick Leng also makes use of it.

[@dorothyzetterstrom1691]

What do you see with the eyes in your head? Pitiful struggle, or are you content? Fear and anger so garishly clothed, resignation and ignorance tied up in bows A king to a pauper, a sad wizened clown A joke an' a punchline, people all 'round Rose-tinted glasses and no-one is sane A big waltzing blindfold, we are what we play We are what we play, and nothing is sane What can he hear with his ears in his hands? Her silently weeping, his head in the sand Patiently lurking in water in wine, he'll drown by her tears, or choke on his time For what we've forsaken and taken too soon Before murdering old mother, we'd dance on the moon Deaf to the thunder that silently cracks, we're holding our breath until her collapse What do you feel with your heart in your chest? Some few thousand years, could soon come to rest Do you feel the butcher? The bullet that bores With corkscrewing chaos and mighty a roar What do you feel with your heart in your chest? Some few thousand years could soon come to rest On the shoulders of man and his bag full of bombs Bell tolling destruction our final swan song

[@spruce381]

It sounds like something wandering minstrels would have sing 500 years ago, all across Europe.

[@d2ndborn]

This is the most amazing song from them.

[@mary.e645]

❤👍👍👍

[@jackchisnall9316]

Glad you liked it, another string to their bows.

[@dawnpatterson8708]

I love the analogy to the rpg game. I love the song and performance.. This was fun guys. Enjoy your Diablo adventure.

[@seagull01-cp8pb]

Glad you are hitting some of their less popular back catalogue. As a choral singer I love this one💕👍🦇

[@TobiiRheaStarr]

One of my favourites! Such a beautiful song 🖤

[@Lynnie_14]

It's a Melodica 😆

[@kathleenswift7979]

Have a listen to them do All My Heroes, studio version is best😁

[@Singlespeedjo]

Ok don’t laugh at me but what is a hurdy-gurdy lol??? Everytime I think I’ve heard and seen all of their performances something new pops up. Kudos to you guys for reacting to this one. Nice work!

[@donmowatt]

Hilarious name - EPIC SOUND. - and thank you!! kzbin.info/www/bejne/ZpWzeYWuq9hmgbs

[@nataliemarshall7158]

@@donmowattthank you for the link. Definitely has a medieval sound to it. Well I should say it has the sound that movies and games etc have told us are medieval 😂😂😂

[@mikedoyle7546]

As others have said you are the first or amongst the first to react to this song. 👍

[@impediment1]

👍 well done 🤓

[@noorieiversen]

Please react to Ren and Sam improvising around Stevie Wonder, such an amazing Jam seesion on the street. Some great song suprises during the performance. ❤😊
