You are the boss here Ren fans are very impassioned you guys know singing so they want you to see the live skills don't take it as criticism take it as respect for your opinion.
Ren has a lot of fans that are kinda crazy and he relieves our madness I'm not a complainer but I think Ren would say as I did you're the boss here you can take the comments into consideration but never let them pressure you into anything. I'm guessing most people recommending the live version were nice and that's why you're doing this. I'll just say thanks.
They call each other musical siblings ❤❤❤, the Ren rabbit hole with his songs like the busking ( Street performances) with “The big push “ band and with “Sam Tompkins” are gold. Chinchilla’s music is awesome “ fingers” live is so hauntingly beautiful as is the other duet with Ren “how to be me”. As always loving your reactions and can see where Mike is coming from with his.
Another great reaction, and thank you for listening to us! As some others have mentioned, with Ren and Chinchilla, live is always better, and most of Ren's videos are live/one-take videos, which is just absolutely amazing. I know I said it on the last video, but definitely check out Ren X Chinchilla - "How to Be Me (live)" and Chinchilla - "Fingers (live)" and "Cold Water (live)". Plus you can also find some videos of the two of them busing together which are also great. Looking forward to the next reaction!
Awww, i was moved because you were moved 🤗 hit me almost as hard as when i first heard it. Thankyou. Just to clarify, in case you genuinely didnt know, but i checked out your playlist. You may be surprised that actually, MOST of the videos you reacted to from Ren WERE live 🙊 (i know you said that they were mostly videos). Thats just how amazing Ren is, he sounds as good, if not better live. Anyway. Great reaction. Love from the UK. 💕
Their covers while busking are also a lot of fun. Chinchilla's elements and fingers (live) really show off your talent as well. Very dynamic singing and range she goes through.
Thanks for re-doing it. Most of Ren's work is done live, in a single shot. This one is no exception. He is always good - including his studio productions - most of which he does himself. The thing with Ren, though, is that each performance is often quite different from the last.... in this one, the sound of the room itself is spectacular. He often chooses locations for the sound of the space
I love your opening banter. I have been through some serious episodes of depression and depression and other mental issues and I appreciate Ginger’s honesty.
I'm from Scotland and if it wasn't for your Bittersweet Symphony reaction I might not have found Ren, so thank you and keep doing what your doing and you two look great. Peace.
Preach it, Ginger! 🙌🏻🙌🏻 People need to take a long walk off a short pier! Y’all are awesome, don’t let the haters bother you, cuz their comments are just helping to promote your channel….. 🤷🏻♀️🤣
Ha! Ginger, way to handle the haters and trolls! Your reactions to Ren have been great and you two are awesome. Just a friendly suggestion, you might want to bring a box of tissues when you do reaction videos! Love you guys!
A tip for future reference - where there is a live version of a Ren song, react to the live version. They are normally shot as one take videos and he and his videographer Sam produce stunning videos.
Honeslty it should be up to the people suggesting or requesting a track to specifiy whether you should react to studio, or live or a specific video if that's what they want.
In spirit of this, I think you guys need to hear their other song "How to be me (live)" ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-SDR7sup3DsU.html Something about Ren and Chinchilla's voices together is hauntingly beautiful.
It's your channel, do what you want, be who you are, everyone else can screw Imo. You obviously have a loyal following, without all those complainers! Thanks for the re-reaction!
Thank You for your share I feel he is not in any category or genre which is essentially a rigid belief system in a sense there are no walls with ren to be boxed in ,he is what the craft of the art is,he is the embodiment of artistic expression he is a diamond in a sea of rough he is multifaceted and shines beautifully even when expressing as in hi ren shining his light through his own darkness and struggles,i hope he stays independent no label sadly music industry can be quite synthetic, anyway thank you for.this💙💎🕊️ Thank you ren and chinchilla chalk outlines live is very cathartic for me near 30yr of depression and channelled healing myself everyday this helps a lot at times watching and feeling my feelings in the moment is healing....... apologies for going on and on however this is life and its a big ole classroom here on mother earth 💙💎🕊️
Ren has been an obsession of mine (and a lot of people I’m sure) ever since I heard Hi Ren, but thanks to him, I’ve also fallen in love with Chinchilla. This strong, beautiful woman has a voice that decimates your soul. I haven’t listen to all of her music but my favorite by far is Fingers THE LIVE FOR HUNGER TV VERSION. You HAVE to do the live version if you decide to check her out. I really hope you do because I love watching people get blown away by her talent and uniqueness. Great reaction on this one! I don’t mind the commentary in the beginning, and for those that do, I wonder if they know how to fast forward a bit…? Maybe that’s too complicated, who knows. You guys do you. There will always be people that complain about something. Have a great day!!
Completely understandable and appreciated. REN’s music should be shared and listened too and any version is a plus! Just because this is another version doesn’t make it the same reaction. Glad you got to see this amazing performance.
First you guys are beautiful to watch! 2nd I watch plenty of reactors that have longer intros then yours and it's never crossed my mind as being a bad thing. I love that both of you are authentic and true to yourselves. Keep doing you and much love from TX❤!
I would love to see you do The live version of "How to be me" by Ren and Chinchilla. It is hauntingly beautiful but definitely heavy (It is about his friend that took his own life) so space it out between some happy stuff!
It's hard to recognise because of the quality of production but Hi Ren, Tales of Jenny, Screech and Violets tale were all Live and one take videos. It's definitely a trait of Rens videos.
I just checked out your Ren playlist and wanted to let you know that both Hi Ren, and the tales of Jenny/Screech/Violet were all live and one take audio (hi Ren was done in one take for the audio and an edit of three cameras for the video). You can see his Lavelier (sp?) mic in all of them :) just an fyi! His live stuff is so good and mastered so it does sound more polished. But especially in the tales you can hear the room sounds quite distinctly
No need to explain yourselves, some people don't seem to understand what a reaction channel is, if I start watching a reaction channel and I don't like it, I watch something else, I mean it's not complicated. Do what you want, say what you want, wear what you want - it's your channel. As for Chalk Outlines, what a brilliant song, I watched the live version first and then when I did the studio version I was expecting it to be not as good, but I really liked it. The live version perhaps has more impact because it's a slower tempo and of course we are seeing them singing into each others eyes. If you want to check out Chinchilla I would suggest ' Fingers ' live and ' Elements ' lyric video.
Hi guys great reaction 👍 How to be me live with chinchilla 👍 is another beautiful song. FYI the tales and Hi Ren where recorded one take live ❤️ if you are looking for a stand out song Ren Gill 2016 Patience is so raw and beautiful the slightly longer version has a wee interview with Ren 💔 before he sings. ✌️❤️🏴 Thanks for the encore.
.. and I just liked your Reaction to this last time, altho I was thinking wrong version lol ! Deep song neutralised a bit by ‘boobs’ n ‘jog on’ fed up opener 😘! You’ll lurv the new CHINCHILLA girl-power songs Ginger & How To Be Me with Ren (live) ! Bit morbid so should be safe here - I’m scared of being okay altho I ‘push it back down’ for a while each day love❤😢x (Well done for ‘playing it again.’)
Quite a lot of Ren's videos are recorded completely live, no lypsynch, live playing, singing, rapping. He does them in a single take too. So, you probably have seen Ren perform live before but not realised it. Hi Ren was live, 1 take, for instance, as was each part of the Jenny, Screech and Violet trilogy, all his busking is live, obviously, as is virtually all of his stuff with his band, The Big Push. Plenty of his other solo work is too. You get the picture, lol. So, if you've listened to any of that, you have heard Ren live before. :) Even when he does studio work, he tries to keep production to a minimum and avoids things such as autotune, like the plague. He likes to keep things stripped down as much as possible. He produces himself, to retain artistic control. He also plays about 7 different instruments, really well, so that helps too. :)
Well said, and I'm with Mike on the two versions :-) I bet that Ginger would enjoy Chinchilla's new(ish) song Little Girl Gone. Official music video would give you theatrics along with the music - and she's independent, so official is not a dirty word ;-)
summery of the pre amble.... ginger welcome to the club,/but) you have a dedicated partner and congrats on that. mark you are doing good. keep behaving. or a 6ft 5' random swede gonna give you a whooping til you do xD love the content you two do and dammit imma stay so.
Love your banter in your video's and if you want to sit and do reactions in a bikini please carry on (you to Ginger) lol just continue being you and ignore the keyboard warriors x PS as a recovering alcoholic please send my regards and respect to your friend for me
There’s no such thing as ‘the wrong version’ of any officially released song. It disrespects the artist thinking that. People may have preferences, that’s life. But it certainly isn’t ‘wrong’.
I love you did the live reaction. I completely understand being a reaction channel that you have no idea what you are walking into. And it can be a crap shoot which version to go for. With Ren I have found I always prefer his live versions. He just brings his personality and intimacy with how he performs that you just don't get from his recorded versions. Btw I love your intro and being clear about being true to yourself. Right down to the ladies you paid for! 🤣 I laughed as it reminded me of how Dolly Parton always says "it takes a lot of money to look this cheap!" and she is unapologetic about that as are you. (Not that I was saying you look cheap! You pull them off so if you got it, flaunt it!) I don't think you have reacted to Ron and Chinchilla's live version of "How to Be Me". I can highly recommend that one.
I love you guys! New subscriber here for sure as soon as I heard you defend your boobs LOL 😆 I'm here for any thing you want to talk about! I'm closing in on 1100 Ren reactions [yes, I've kept track] At 53 having listened and loved music my whole life no one has affected me as much as Ren, this young man has reconfigured my mind and REN-EWED my soul! I equated it to how I felt after reading The Power of Now. Get Well soon Ren!
They have done quite a few songs together Ginger hun, the we’re both buskers originally & that is their favourite way to sing 💞🤝🫶 & hey it’s your channel, so no such thing as a shameless plug. So glad your friend got on top of it & I know that struggle deeply. Will be watching just to see him 💯‼️🔥🔥
@@doicounttoo6861 watch all the videos with them talking about, singing live on the street (busking) together bro. That’s what I mean’t & weirdly think you knew that 😝😏👍
@@THE-PHOENIX8 Then write what you mean. You're stating they were both buskers. She was not! ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-_Jt9ohkYjFs.html 2:08 3:46 and 8:48 You're welcome.
Hey guys, I hope you both understand it was never a criticism from myself or others who commented that we all wished you reacted to the live version. From myself I just think the power that they put into this performance needed to be seen by you guys, they both put themselves out there and bared their souls to us and showed how vulnerable they are. I’m really glad you reacted to it after the demand, you guys are fantastic 🙌 More Boobs, loud shirts, talking about ducks and whatever else you want to chat about please…. Don’t change guys 👊 And thank you for the heads up that you reacted to the live version 👍🏼
I'm actually with Mike; I LOVE both versions and the live version has something special with their chemistry, passion and some different harmonies, but the studio version I think is possibly easier on the ear in some ways. Either way I think I'll always slightly prefer 'How to be Me' as a better demonstration of their pure synchronicity and Ren's devastating and beautiful songwriting. Great reaction, both, as always. x
Ren is the king of the live performance. They are all so powerful and passionate! Btw, anyone who so lacks class and maturity that the would make negative comments about you body isn’t someone you need watching anyway ❤just pathetic.
When I first heard the studio version I was so disappointed. It hardly touched me compared with this. This is pure magic. Thank you both for your reactions. Of course, you do realize you took a whole 5.40 mins of talking before you played the video!!! I expected more from you such as a full six minutes. Just pulling your leg. Oh, and people COMPLAIN about your boobs? I don't know anyone who doesn't like boobs. Is their anti-boob movement?
Really don't understand why idiots have to proffer unsolicited opinions on a channels presentation style or what the presenters decide to wear...(says he who wants to start a fan club for Mike's shirts... which are epic!) And Ginger... I would start a fan club for those boobs but have been strongly advised by my lawyers that that could lead to a terrible set of legal ramifications... not to mention that it would be some what gauche!... another great reaction, Its good to see both versions of this song reviewed as they are both beautiful. Also just to add my voice to the inevitable crechendo of requests... it really is worth checking out chinchillas catalogue as I feel Ginger would really enjoy little girl gone...Great stuff as ever guys... so when you going to get back to reacting to some more of The Midnight.... he said cheekily... 😊😇😇😏❤
There are lot of things you react to that just aren't for me,but, there are many that I love. Many that are new to me so I give them a chance, like Ren. Enjoyed both versions. Okay, this comment is getting long, someone might complain. Enjoy your day.
Who complains about boobs ? Next time take 2 minutes before the song and boob it up with your turkey lol. Lord people cant just enjoy things. Thank you for doing your channel how you see fit because that is why I love it. You two of standards of excellence and most importantly, fun !
No need to respond. You just left me a comment saying you were doing the live version. I want to apologize. I didn’t read any other comments so I had no idea you were bombarded with messages like mine. Again, my apologies. Take care.
Also, nice to meet you both, and hello to the ladies as well. I’m a mammo tech, and boobs arent a big deal guys. Appreciate them or ignore them, but they do not ask for or invite your criticism 😂
First, I can not fathom why anyone feels comfortable criticizing your clothing when you are in your house on your channel. Shaming women and their bodies is such a patriarchal trap. I have a large chest and it is really difficult to NOT have cleavage. Hearing comments about my body started when I was 11. It was so damaging. This now just feels me with anger. Second, the live version of "How to be Me" with this duo is stunning. Same stripped down feel focused on vocals and lyrics. Her live version of "Fingers" is astonishing. #Little Girl Gone" is great, too.
There is no right or wrong with Ren but it is a crapshoot on studio vs. live for example I prefer GENESIS studio over the live. Maybe the best way to pick is go with the version with the most views?
I am sorry that you had to waste time and space to remind a few commenters to be more kind. I know you are strong enough to just let it bounce but it is still kind of a shame. We should not be sharing this journey with any spirit meant to harm.
