Wow bro this made my day! still learning how to use my voice everyday. this particular video was taken at a time when my vocal was worn out. I’m so glad you enjoyed it. this was such a unique perspective. Have subbed! would love to see your reaction to my song time will fly and the the live piano version of die for someone too! even see me! these are all my latest songs and think you’ll love em. also I’m tryna make yodelling cool haha. thanks for spotting that.

He’s stunning! You’ll love Blind Eyed by Ren and Sam - especially M.C Sessions from Music Crowns version. 🥰

From the newer videos of Sam "Time Will Fly" is a genius. The song, the lyrics, the videography are all ingenious. In the video you will also learn a lot about Sam's coming to age, and his history with Ren by short clips and flashing images.

Sam's voice is just stunning. His musical style isn't one I would normally listen to, but his vocals are so compelling that I've become a fan.

His Ren collab where he sings Earned it is great. It’s a live busking video

His falsetto kills me. It's beautiful

I always enjoy your reactions. Next stop on the Sam Tompkins train is Time Will Fly.

Thanks Chris.. always enjoy your insights to these amazing talents! Great story about Sam and Ren… they first met when Ren was headed home from busking and saw Sam singing out on the street w/o any equipment. He stopped and listened for a few minutes, then unpacked his ‘stuff’ and set up for Sam to use it. They’ve performed together.. pls consider listening to Blind Eyed MC sessions. BTW - I just saw where Sam has sold out his upcoming concert in Toronto.. he’s such an incredible singer/talent.

Thank you Chris.. such a beautiful singer Sam is.. I really think Ren is like a purveyor of good everything.. he puts goodness out in the Universe we would never have known without him!♥️🎶♥️

I am so excited to see you discover Sam, I could not click on this video quick enough. IMO he's the most emotive singer working today, and I don't say that lightly. He has such a great catalogue and the history he has with Ren is fantastic and beautiful to see. Try Ren and Sam 'Blind Eyed - MC sessions'. You'll be amazed and love it and I'd love to see it! Thanks Chris - your the best!

Sam is underappreciated for sure. Definitely check out the Music Crowns live capture of he & Ren performing "Blind Eyed" - it's *quite* captivating.... just the two of them into a pair of SM58s, & Ren's telecaster. ;)

Damn…I’ve never clicked so fast! Love Sam’s voice, he loves his music as REN does. Yes, agree with comments, you would enjoy their collabs.

Yes! This man can sing, Ive said that for so long Id love for you to hear "Blind Eyed", a song Ren and Sam wrote, live prefferably!

Man I love me some Sam Tomkins...every bit of it!!

we need some more, i recommend time will fly. Explains his journey with Ren and his life. Love your videos.

Please do his whole catalogue of live performances he deserves way more attention then he is getting even thought he is still blowing up. imo he’s the best male vocalist out singing right now 🗣️🙌

Love this one! You're certainly in for a treat to check out more Sam (Time will Fly, See me are amazing!) and then Sam and Ren (Blind Eyed MC sessions)

Please check out Blind eyed by ren and sam, but do either the music crowns or angry car park attendant version! Please 😊

Oooh I've been waiting for this one!!!!

Your face is exactly how I feel when listening to Sam! Thanks for sharing! Him and Ren together are magical! Definitely check out “Blind Eyed” they wrote it together and the MC Sessions live version is my favorite! I also love their busking sessions! As others have said “TimeWill Fly” is wonderful! ✌🏻🫶🏻

Love your reaction. Sam’s voice is beautiful . ❤

Ren, Chinchilla and Sam! The best I discovered in the last years!!! „Blind eyed“ so good!!!

His voice is stunning

Oh wow Chris, I didn't realize you hadn't done any Ren + Sam stuff yet! My god are you in for some incredible performances. Together, and solo Sam too. His pop is *almost* "not mainstream" enough for me to genuinely like his solo stuff, but mostly I listen to his solo stuff because no matter whether I like mainstream pop or not, his VOICE is something I don't want to miss out on (and the lyrics are often so beautiful/deep/meaningful). My favourite is always when he's collaborating with Ren though, because their energy is THROUGH THE ROOF (and then it's not pop... or if it *might* be considered to be pop, it's Ren bringing his alternate takes on pop). I can't figure out what would be my wish list "first Ren + Sam" video to see you take in... ... I mean, so many will say one of the videos they've done of Blind-Eyed, a song they wrote together right after Ren got his first effective treatment for his Lyme Disease and had a renewed lease on life (even if of course it hadn't *solved* the problem... at least he could live more of his life outside of the house again). And it went viral, gave Ren some of his first attention outside of the UK I think. - The MC Session is my favourite version - GREAT live performance with great sound quality; best chance of catching the lyrics. - Busking version - incredible to watch them at work in front of a crowd, but the sound quality is SHIT. Like, *really* shit. - Music video for the official recorded version - super interesting/cool, but I'd be sad if you chose it because... I don't want to give spoilers for a reaction channel so I can't say, but let me tell you that YOUR CHANNEL'S FOCUS ON THE EXAMINATION OF THE HUMAN VOICE AS INSTRUMENT means you need to do one of the acoustic versions. - Angry Car Park Attendant version - ABSOLUTELY essential viewing for fans and I think you would be utterly delighted... but its popularity is at least somewhat due to what it shows about Ren's personality and their friendship (as well as sure, of course, Ren & Sam's talent and skill). The MC Session is still the better experience of the *song* imo. Others will disagree. ... BUT... I actually wonder if the video that's titled "Improvising Around Stevie Wonder" on Ren's channel is maybe the best place to start, for you! Possibly THE most playful performance in Ren's (and probably Sam's) videography... which of course, is saying quite something.

I love how you feel the music deep in your soul.

Thanks! 👍Great breakdown...I'm with you for the ride down this rabbit hole!

All of Sam's newer stuff is crazy good. Every song hits you right in the feels, whether it's about his lack of confidence, or his Dad, or anything else.

I get to see Sam at the Troubadour in Hollywood in a couple weeks. I am soooooo excited!!!!! His voice is therapeutic. So soothing.

Happy to hear your analysis of Sam's vocal talent. Very interested in understanding his unique style.

Its crazy how a mindset shift of "how it should feel" instead of "what I want it to sound like" is the most important thing you could do for yourself, as a vocalist. You do so well at explaining and demonstrating what things should "feel" like when you're attempting all sorts of vocals, and it's paid off like crazy for me in the past couple of weeks. Thanks so much Chris, and to others that do what you do! 🤘🤘

See me is one of his best songs ❤

Happy you finally decided to look into Sam! The first time or two I heard him I really thought he was trying too hard. I thought, honestly, he was a wannabe. It was about the third video it finally struck that he's the real deal, and he connected with me. I think it was one others have suggested, with Ren, "Blind Eyed, the MC sessions". You're in for a real treat here.

I’m so pleased you got around to this Chris. I’ve suggested it a few times. It’s my favourite Sam performance. Sam is very much a ‘ballad’ singer songwriter. He has some superb live performances 👍🇬🇧❤️

Great reaction! I’m seeing him live at the Troubadour in Hollywood in October

I love how you feel the music so deeply 🥰🥰

Super happy to see you react to Sam, his voice is great. can't wait for more of this.

LISTEN to him and Ren singing Feeling Good/Trouble so High/Master Blaster (Jammin') at a train station in the UK.

You should check out Ren and Sam doing Latch live! The harmonies are phenomenal!😊

He's already done some support shows with Justin Bieber. Who he has said was a big influence on him. There's footage of them singing together on RU-vid.

Love this. You need to watch Earned it / Mans World / Falling

Thanks for doing this one! ❤ Now you need Sam in Time Will Fly.

Great thoughtful and heartfelt Reaction. Great. 👍🏻

THIS is the reaction iv been dieing to see from you ❤

Mr Falsetto...OMG I always, always love to hear this song. Thank you Chris !!

Didn’t realise you hadn’t reacted to Sam yet. You’ve got to see the “Angry Car Park Attendant” version of Blind Eyed - it’s a great demonstration of Sam’s playful character and also of the pure, natural power of both Sam and Ren’s vocals

Oh how happy I am that THIS was at the top of my list when I only had time to watch one video. I have more to say but this was literally all the time I had. ❤❤❤❤

Sam makes me cry every time.

your reaction from time 9:08 and there onwards was beautiful to watch......it looked like pure joy to me and I feel it too not just because you enabled me but because you validated my feelings

So glad you did this. Would strongly recommend Time Will Fly💕👍🦇

Yay! So happy to see you doing a reaction to Sam! His voice is so good. I’m very excited that I’m going to get to see him live in Brooklyn on Thursday!

enjoying you guys recommendations and the reaction here❤🎉

So happy you have checked out Sam Tompkins - Time Will Fly official music video is epic but I personally love the vulnerability in See Me especially the live performance version, raw. Sam is in the States over the next few weeks NY, Chicago, West Hollywood, San Fran between 28th Sept and 14th Oct before returning to do some European dates (ps TORONTO Velvet Underground sold out!!) - If anyone is near any of these to check him out they def should!! he's a massive down to earth guy who is a writing and vocal star - such a lovely humble guy! Thanks massively Chris and we can't wait for you to check out more SAM!!!!!

Absolutely loving this song and Sam is so super talented. Love both Sam and Ren they're amazing! ❤

Thanks for your brilliantly informative reaction. I really would love you to react to Sam's 'Time Will Fly' and, ''Ren & Sam Tompkins - Blind Eyed Ft. Angry Car Park Attendant'. 😄

It feels & sounds so good, it nearly brings me to tears each time ✌️💙🎵🔆

I been waiting for this since 2020

Hes so talented man, so glad my friend showed me sam. Putting the UK on the map.

oh wow you never listened to Ren and Sam’s Blind Eyed? Om my, please do!

Please please do more sam. Or sam and ren busking. Pretty please❤❤❤❤

Ren & Sam busking next please

Hey Chris, love the reactions. Would be great to see you do “time will fly” by Sam but with a more emotional breakdown rather than purely technical. Much love though from the UK. Keep up the good work 🧡

"what went wrong" part one and two are good one's with both ren and sam

I 'm so glad you reacted to this. I didn't even have to watch the video before knowing what your reaction would be. The real life story of Ren and Sam coming together is also amazing. I'm away now to watch your full reaction.

Sam has pioneered a way to make his vocal tone so appealing. You know a songwriter leans on his own lyrics when they can just harmonize the tone of the song with their vocal switches. Purely talented

great reaction. You're going to love his song Time Will Fly. for an original by him and Ren Blind Eyed. they did some busking together as well; no diggity/walking on the moon is awesome.

I am with others that Blind Eyed is a must listen and there are multiple performances that really give just a sense of who they are as performers. The MC session is the most technically refined version, but after that check out the parking garage version - they started recording in a spot for the accoustics and Angry Parking Lot attendant chases them out, and they just keep performing with some laughs and vocal insertions of playfulness. They don't get distracted from the performance even when Ren's guitar string(s) snap and he keeps going hard without missing a beat. Their stort of meeting and Ren mentoring him is a perfect example of the goodness of who Ren is, but the parking lot version shows who they are as performers - not afraid to be playful, make technical 'mistakes', and just have fun performing regardless of their surroundings. They don't get overly concerned about sounding perfect, which you highlight often, and their is just an ease with their instrument they make it seem effortless. I am surprised you haven't heard Sam yet, because some of Ren's best work is his busking covers, and they perform together often in that form. Many of Ren's most gasp-worthy moments with his talents come in those performances, so I highly recommend them. Hopefully you'll notice something extra special - whenever he duets live, when the other person has the main part, he takes giant steps back or even drops to his knees while playing guitar, as if in reverence of the person he is honored to play with, and he makes sure the spotlight and focus is on the other person. It is that humble, ego-less aspect that drew me deep into the Ren Rollercoaster, since the way a person handles those situations speaks volumes to their character. He doesn't demand the full spotlight, he makes sure the other person is getting an equal chance to shine, and it genuinely gives me chills sometimes to watch those incredibly pure moments of performances

Ren and Sam: Blind Eyed (live) for Music Crowns. Mic Drop....

you know its special when the closed caption just says [Music]

Finally, i am excited watching your reaction :) And now Asaf Avidan please

Sam is one of the best gifts that having done a Ren rabbit- hole deep dive has given me.

the voice crack make it 100 times better i swear

You DEFINITELY need to watch Ren and Sam's original song called "Blind Eyed" live in studio on a RU-vid channel called "Music Crown" it's absolutely amazing how well they work together. Then watch another live version of that same song but it's on Ren's channel and he labeled it "Blind Eyed featuring the Angry Car Park Attendant" haha you'll see how they work under pressure and still manage to kill it!

I also enjoy his live piano version of Die for Someone as well as his and Rens street performance of Blind Eyed

Blind eyed!… you won’t be disappointed ✌️❤️

Boy are you in for a treat Mr Liepe 🪇🎹

Sam gives me the chills big time 🥶❤️‍🔥❤️‍🔥

One of my bucket list items is having Chris Liepe react to me someday:)

Love Sam- follow his work❤. I’d love for you to check out Kasey Chambers cover / rearrangement of Lose Yourself to dissect why her artistic choices had such an impact on on this song.

Hes amazing

The music crowns sessions version of Blind Eyed by Ren and Sam Tompkins is the one to react to absolutely!!!

More Sam soon!!! ❤️

Can't lie watching this and hearing what you say. I do the same sort of things with my voice as Sam on particular words. Got my first recording session in 9 years Tuesday coming, where can I reach out to you for a chat if anywhere?

Frank Carter and The Rattlesnakes🙏 Frank is soooo good at aggressive and passionate delivery. I would love to see vocal analysis

Always find my playlist expanding whenever I watch your videos. Definitely found a great one here and always enjoy your in-depth explanation and analysis of the techniques. Hope you can get to Gusto Ko Nang Bumitaw Live Band Performance by Morisette.

I would really like to see you analyze a beatboxer's voice and the sound they're able to make just using their vocal system. Try out this man's melodic style. Show-Go - Jasmine.

❤❤

Time will fly

Sam is a real talent

Check out Romain (big push geetar frenchman) "turn the lights down" Such a bop and interesting vocal choices

Time Will Fly and Blind Eyed please🙏

When I clicked this video, I KNEW you were in for a TREAT.

Check out the song Take Shape (feat. Billy Corgan) by Code Orange. 🍊

Sam is something else...

Aye it's been over 10 years but can you please do 30 Seconds to Mars - Stay cover I would love to hear what you have to say on his gritty vocals along with his smooth stuff I think that would be a kick ass video

❤❤❤

First time I clicked in to your youtube channel. I'm not a singer but if you haven't already done so check out first reactions to Dan Vask. Also, Dimash has hit a D8 whistle note (his voice is not of this world).

This is so sublime, not my style at all but you just know this man is quality

Please also react to his song See Me!
