TRYING TO STAN: RENEE RAPP

[@fifteendozenalleyroses]

Snow Angel is actually about a traumatic experience where she was drugged and missing for 7 hours

[@noam3561]

yes and also what bill was talking around. my understanding is that that was what inspired her to write it, but it was the breaking point of an era in which she was partying really hard as an escape which is what the song is talking about.

[@ben0789]

I forgot how fucked up the origin behind snow angel was

[@kristybeutler5962]

Love you and love her! If you decide to do more, "Gemini Moon", "In The Kitchen", and "I Wish". "Poison Poison is a fun one, too.

[@destinysamuel5628]

Love love love in the kitchen and i wish

[@li2386]

LOVEEE poison poison

[@dslaughter3555]

I love In The Kitchen so much

[@melissa24mnm]

I would love to see you do a part 2 including interviews and other clips so you can get to know her personality. She's so funny and unapologetically herself, I think you'd love her!

[@Gildedpossum]

That "hi 😳" when Megan came on was so cute 😂

[@sapphictheaterkid5471]

first Chappell now Renee, every time one of you videos pops up it’s about one of my special interests im SAT

[@AboveAverageFemaleCookingRoom]

Chappell and Reneé are my favourite singers lmao I love infodumping about them to my friends, especially Reneé

[@cassidygiven]

I would looove if you reacted to her song “I Wish” ! It is absolutely soul crushing and will probably make you cry (sorry) but it is so so beautiful. It is one of my personal favorites and it really helped me get through the death of my aunt.

[@musicdiary5768]

I like the live acoustic version

[@Amm2187_]

Reneé Rapp’s voice is INCREDIBLE!! She performed both “Snow Angel” and “Not My Fault” on SNL and oh my goood she was incredible!!! *Also* I really think you would love Bastille! You should absolutely check them out/react to them! Some songs I’d recommend are: • Glory • Seasons & Narcissus • Eve & Paradise Lost • Blue Sky & the Painter • Those Nights • Another Place • The Draw • Flaws • Fake It (but skip the music video, do the Vevo Presents performance instead) • Quarter Past Midnight • No Bad Days • Intros & Narrators

[@natepercy]

Loved the breakdown! Renee is one of my favorite artists right now. I'll break down vibes for you so you can be prepared mentally before going in if you do another video. So fucking sad: Don't tell my mom Everything to everyone (I'd listen to both the intro and extended) I hate boston More fun/chill vibes: Poison Poison Tummy Hurts Gemini Moon I'm not going to lie, all of her songs have a more depressing message even if they're fun. I'm sure you noticed that lol. But those first three are like properly sad.

[@Sharkybugzz]

snow angel is so good😭😭💖

[@ElBreaksLoose222]

I just have to say that you broke down the oscillating, conflicting feelings of being a gay girl stuck in the dynamic of Pretty Girls so eloquently! and incredibly accurately, at least to my own experiences.

[@noam3561]

if you do another one, tummy hurts is the obvious one and also willow is my favorite :)

[@areswilliams]

Omg a willow Stan high five me too. It was my least favorite on my initial listen of this album but by my third listen it became my favorite ❤️

[@robeson1070]

Bill you work so hard on your edits and always find such interesting artists & shows to bring to our attention. & I know times are lean, so... Thank you so much!

[@MorganT_Arts]

please try to stan ethel cain i beg 😖😖😖

[@theskeptic777]

If he listened to all of Preacher’s Daughter he would be inconsolable…

[@alyh5344]

he would never stop crying i fear

[@SpaghettyBabyNoodleBoy]

Yes !!! Oh you need to do a second part and react to "In the kitchen" and "everything to everyone" !! I think you're really going to like them !

[@scorpia-lovebot]

WOOOO HAVEN'T WATCHED YET BUT SO HYPED!!! i've been a renee rapp fan for so long and i LOVED the movie (i know im in the minority lol but i was absolutely its target audience aka lesbian that loved the original mean girls movie) soo excited to hear your thoughts :D

[@scorpia-lovebot]

for another perspective on talk too much, this song has always felt like a very direct depiction of relationship ocd, something i've experienced firsthand. it's one of my favorite songs for how real it feels and how much uncertainty it creates in your feelings and relationships!!!

[@starace4031]

I adore Reneé Rapp, she's a phenomenal performer so seeing Bill cover her content seriously made my day. 😊 Each song has a distinct and relatable vibe and would absolutely love to see another video at least going through some more if that's ok for Bill to do. The first song Snow Angel (SA) is a very powerful one. As much as I wish more lyrics were included in this video reaction I understand it's due to copyright and I appreciate all the music that Bill is able to use in his videos even so so thank you. 😊 Hope you're doing well Bill and thank you ever so much for the awesome content you create. 😊

[@baleejade8650]

Yayyyyy I love her😭😭😭

[@hazeyhails]

I love that you can see in her face and here and her lyrics and her tone just how much she wants to stop talking but she just can’t like it’s so good self aware queen

[@camilaGMW]

UUUh, I REALLY need you to go through "I wish" the accoustic version. That was the song that made me LOVE her. Also Willow is very lovely

[@makayla6789]

wait stop i haven’t seen a video from you in years and i’m such a huge reneé fan- so happy to have found my way back to your channel w this🫶🏽 the meg crush moments and gushing over reneé’s voice were SO real lmfao

[@shadowwolf7880]

I would loose my mind if you reacted to LEGO Monkie Kid. For me it feels a lot like the Owl House with every season getting more and more heavier. Every single character is likeable in their own twisted way, there is not a single line/frame wasted in the entire five seasons we got so far. And to spice it even more, we almost didn't get season 5 at all. The animation team somehow made it possible to make a stylized lego animation expressive as hell. It's a pleasure to watch the show, *especially* in later seasons. A lot of magic, mystery, and overall fun (and now heartbreak lol) just to add to this masterpiece. If you enjoyed The Owl House you will love this one too, I promise. And it'd be insane being able to hear your theories! (there's a playlist with the whole show on YT if you're interested)

[@riverhalorix4203]

willow and poison poison are some of my absolute favouritesss, the album is soooo good

[@pinapplegaming5781]

Bill I absolutely loved this reaction, I love Renee so much😭❤️ I was wondering if you could do twenty one pilots reactions as well. I love the way you break down song lyrics. Maybe you’ve already heard twenty one pilots but I’d still love to see u react and break down their songs even if it’s not a first reaction! If you this catches ur interest could u start with their album, Vessel? TYSM for reading if u have! :D

[@thethirdbill]

there are several videos about TOP on my channel lol i hope you enjoy them if you check em out!

[@pinapplegaming5781]

@@thethirdbill OMG HOW DID I NOT KNOW ABT THIS?? I LITERALLY LOVE UR REACTIONS AND TYSM FOR REPLYING IT MEANS SO MUCH TO ME OMGGG❤️❤️

[@LourdanHazei]

I'm so glad you did this dive. I keep hearing about her, but I didn't know if my old, boring butt would've gotten around to looking into her without this intro.

[@shinigamixeyes]

Please do tummy hurts it’s my fave 🖤🖤🖤

[@nireus2299]

i don't know how to feel because i was expecting I Wish, In the Kitchen,23 and Don't Tell My Mom, didn't get that but would BREAK my boy. but hey if you do a part 2 listen to them with tissues on the side

[@peachy__pg]

i’m so glad you checked her out and i hope you listen to more of her! maybe when you react to the movie musical you could check out some of the broadway one, renee was regina in that as well!

[@ben0789]

Renee originally played regina in the Broadway musical. The movie wasnt the first time.

[@ninni8806]

Please react to more Renee rapp. My favorite song is Boston😊 Hope you’ll listen to that one next😊

[@everydaysam3547]

oh Bill I got so worried for you when you started with Snow Angel. You could look up what the song is actually about at your own risk; it's a hearbreaking song.

[@ninocaetano7064]

loooved this! you should definitely do a part 2 she has some very emotional ones like in the kitchen, i wish and i do, and if you liked the cathartic vibes, poison poison and so what now are on point for that!!

[@cassidygiven]

yessss bill i have been waiting for this!!! knew you would come through! ❤

[@pogobee]

New subscriber! Chappell brought me in and had to immediately watch your reaction to Reneé.

[@thomasa28]

Can you do a ‘Trying To Stan Bears In Trees?” They’re one of my favourite bands!

[@svein022]

Definitely recommend In the Kitchen and Tummy Hurts

[@thepelletmonkey]

If you could do a reaction to Gang of youths I think you'll enjoy them , if I had to recommend songs specifically it'd probably Achilles Come Down, Magnolia and the angel of 8th ave. Good channel btw, interesting and thoughtful takes ✌🏻

[@colibritube]

iv'e been waiting for YEARS for this reaction i'm so happy you finally did it !! you should check out her entire EP "everything to everyone" i'm sure it would move you from beginning to end :)

[@LionGrl321]

OMG YOU REACTING TO RENEE RAPP MADE MY DAYYYYY! (i recommend watching the music video for "Bruises" its really good :D)

[@HannahG-nk2mf]

I shouted when you said ‘the night belongs to lovers’ bcuz that popped into my head too! You should hear In The Kitchen, I Hate Boston, Everything To Everyone extended and I Wish Great video!

[@lismorejbbjbb546]

new bill video lets GOOOOOO ❤ glad to see you king hope things start looking up for you soon

[@jasminelancaster5306]

Please react to her song Poison Poison!!! It's my favorite one!!

[@beccadoingstuff]

you’ve really been tuning into the girls and the gays lately and i LOVE that for you💕💕

[@LeziLexi]

Please react to Willow! Also fun fact: Too Well is Renee’s least favorite song

[@noahcufre5534]

I would love for you to react to Tamino one day, one of my favorite artists. Here are some of his songs: Habibi Fascination The first disciple Índigo night Every pore

[@haira-hcomsomderobg4773]

You should react to her first single! Its called "Tattoos"

[@joker80james]

Samia is an artist ive recommended a befor, but id love to see some coverage on her! Fun fact shes the daughter of kathy najimy, who is the voice actor for Peggy Hill, as well as the actor who plays the witch Mary in Hocus Pocus!

[@Mdg20_]

I think you should listen to The Wedding Song, I Wish, Don’t Tell My Mom, Colorado, I Hate Boston, and Tummy Hurts!!!

[@alexisglatt3981]

I would definitely recommend: poison poison, i wish, someone gets hurt, tummy hurts, i hate boston, or gemini moon for future videos! She has so many good songs and such a variety in her tone and style and she does it all so well :)

[@PoemsOfaboy-t3u]

Could you please do a trying to stan Kevin Atwater? Hes a gay folk artist who sings about being gay and experiences that come from being gay in more conservative areas (the midwest in kevin Atwaters case) Its so gut wrenching but so nice and means a lot

[@TheSquirrelInBobRossPocket]

I love the approach you bring to videos! You might like the vocals and lyrical depth from Paris Paloma (songs: Labour, Cradle, Boys Bugs Men)

[@shayneoshaughnessy2471]

loveeee. now you gotta do a part 2 with in the kitchen, poison poison, and too well !! pls

[@ErinBrookes]

Renee 😍😍

[@rainbowdino9310]

If you're interested in listening to another musical you should really react to Epic by Jorge! It's a musical retelling and slight rewrite of the Odyssey! It's just concept songs right now so you can listen to the albums or watch animatics!

[@brittanyvinz8043]

Bill! I found your channel when you released Trying to Stan Hozier a few years ago but then lost you to time and the algorithm. I’m so glad to have found you again! If you have not already heard of them I think Sleep Token would be right up your alley and would make an excellent Tryin to Stan.

[@user-qx6ri2bf4o]

PLEASEE REACT TO HER ALBUM "SNOW ANGEL" and her best song (in my opinion) "In The Kitchen"

[@ghostlyexe]

I highly recommend listening to the original Broadway musical album with Taylor Lauderman, Erika Henningsen, and Barrett Wilbert Weed as well. I would love to watch a video of you reacting to it

[@Renkae]

You should totally try to stan Ren, especially his trilogy of songs "the tale of Jenny and Screech", his music is so powerful and emotional, he's really good at storytelling in his songs.

[@maxwellgrimsley]

You’ve gotta do “in the kitchen” by Renee!!

[@nightowlneith6236]

i would like to add to the suggestions tummy hurts ft coco jones, in the kitchen, and poison poison

[@MsLibertyForUs]

ALSO LISTEN TO ORLA GARTLAND ESPECIALLY HER NEW SONG MINE

[@the_purple_kat]

At some point you should try listening to Ren, especially the song "Hi Ren" it is emotional but very cathartic.

[@davidbodor1762]

Hey Bill, any more show discussions coming up? It's been a while since you did one and there's a lot of cool new stuff you missed, plus a lot of even cooler stuff coming up!

[@redjellybeanz8737]

Hello! You should react/ try to stan Faye Webster!! I feel like you would like her and I really do aswell. I love how much you think and express each song, Keep being wholly you, thanks!

[@spilledmilk_1636]
