Ren - Back on 74 Message In A Bottle (Reaction) 

Relationship goals: To have someone look at me the way Roni looks at Ren.

And it was this day when ThatRoni knew the importance of flood insurance in her house!! 😂😂

The bass player is Ren's friend/assistant Kai - he did a great job. Ren has joked that he won't let him in any more of his videos because he looked too cool ! The backing singers were Sylvia Mwenze and Scarlett Fae - I thought they were brilliant. They only had two hours to shoot the video in a cramped corner of a pub in Brighton - the decor was fantastic. The whole thing, from original concept to "in the can", took just 10 days. Incredible teamwork !

The message in a bottle riff at ~2:00, the symmetry of the "let it go" swap from Ren singers to backup singers, just an amazing arrangement...

You always look a little bit flustered when watching Ren, it's so cute. Great reaction

I swear I saw little hearts popping above your head, this quickly became one of my favorites from Ren, what a vibe.

I discovered the brilliance of REN pre-pandeminc and have never looked back. Please pardon my language here... REN is a fucking GENIUS.

Remember, Ren is a cheeky lad & his favorite 7 sins is…lust! You’re the “Uninvited”.

Always enjoy watching you experience multiple Rengasms 😉

Rumour has it Roni is still in a puddle of swoon now😂. Great song a Nd a fun reaction.

i have the same thoughts roni, and im a bloke. some amazing charm and charisma from him. i believe it took ten days from thought to recording. your look of being smitten was clear. amazing

You took off your jacket and I DIED!!😆🤣 Then I sub'd😍 You are adorable lol.

What a fun reaction to a great song. Thanks for bringing a smile to my face this morning

Awesome! The backing vocalists are world class! x

❤ this was so fun to watch... beautiful, beautiful reaction 🤗

I got the same feeling as you did watching Ren by watching your reaction 😆

you are adorable when you watch Ren, that is all x

With just a few elements, our friend Ren has created an atmosphere with an old flavor; where the decoration, the excellent backup singers, a solid bass and a chameleon-like Ren, make an unsurpassable and friendly ensemble. Great reaction Roni! I suscribe.

Your face said it all 😂🔥🤘🔥🤘🔥🫶🇬🇧

We all have that "Ren crush" ! He is adorable !

First few seconds and that’s exactly what I did. Ren is crazy sexy in this video and a voice to die for ❤

Friday evening, fish n chips, ThatRonireacts and Ren...Happy days.. 💙

10 seconds.... i KNOW youre gonna love this one!

Like your reaction style, silent with captions, so fun. Love this, subscribing now ❤❤❤

My God, it seems like it would be forever before I could see you react to "Back to 74"!.... It's a huge joy, isn't it?!... It's our ARTIST... Ren! So good! Thanks for the reaction.

Yep - he’s lovely!! 🤣 Thank you for your reaction and for helping to spread the word x

Great Reaction!!!

so good to see you smile! when you smile it lights up the whole world and makes this old fart genuinely happy. keep smiling sweetheart.🙂🙂🙂❤❤❤

I know how you felt!❤😂

Been waiting for you to see this one. You are too cute and too funny when you blush over Ren. You make an old man wish he were young again.

love your reaction 💓

You should watch Knox Hill interview, where you learn that Ren is still in Canada, then he'll be back in the UK for a while but eventually come to live in the USA in a really short future :) It's so good to see you smile like that, Ren is a magician I guess :)

From the very start, it was clear there were things you liked. 😊 Say what you will, there's nothing wrong with showing your feelings. Thanks, Roni for sharing.

You're simply adorable Roni, was hoping you'd do this one. It did not disappointed ❤

Great reaction.💕👍🦇

Omg! I love your beautiful, goofy, wonderful self! You make this person so happy😬Thank you!

he owned me by 01:01.. damn this man. it is fantastic to be present as this kind of music hits. ... vids of older performances need the respect... but there is just something bout being alive in the moment when anticipation is bettered in the performance that side swipes ja. * edited because I am tethered, sunk, held, stopped breathing, smiling sooo hard. ☮☮ & 💜💜

Thank you for reacting to this one love your reactions ❤❤❤

Really enjoyed this reaction video....... Thank you Roni

I look at Roni the way she looks at Ren. What a crazy world we live in.

roni stands on the pinnacle of people who illustrate the ability to coney words without words

You’re gonna have to fly north to Canada, if you need to see Ren. He’ll be back in the UK this summer, though.

I new you’d love this I checked yesterday and you hadn’t reacted to it yet I couldn’t believe it

Loved your work as usual. I particularly loved that bit at the end (although my GAS doesn't need to be nurtured lol). Big love as usual... Y un abrazo muy fuerte

Amazing arrangement, awesome guitars, great voices... I see you loved it! Great reaction!❤ I also did get warm, just by looking into your eyes 😍 And I love your guitar. Keep playing! @9:54 You CAN sing! 👌

Love this so much! Great, fun reaction. I was smiling along with you. ☮️❤️😎

Brilliant reaction to an incredible performance, one of my absolute favourites.

My vote for the most talented artist at this point in time...

The jacket is off!....she means biz!...great reaction...as ever

Ok...ive got to say it ...after watching Roni react to Ren and just watching and listening to Ren fir over a year..... REN & RONI NEED TO MEET!!!! #Renmakesmusic and #ThatRoni 😊❤😊❤😊❤

I think this took 10 days from conception to filming, which is mind blowing

There's a band Ren sounds like with this voice....I just can't place it but it's in my head. Great sound and sound. But those 2 backup singers....dang! "Hometown roots remain, no matter where the journey leads." - Nobody

I told you a few weeks ago that this would make you feel so happy. Loved this reaction. Ren can do anything, he's the best artist anywhere.

Between the little gasp when he came in, the removing of the jacket, the pursing and biting of the lips, I'm shocked she didn't slide right off that seat. LOL.

Great job

He actually put the whole thing to gether in just a handful of days. He had a week off from his treatment and was back in the UK. He decided to try to put something together. He wrote/arranged the music, got hold of his friend, Kai, to play bass and recruited 2 local girls as backing singers. He managed to persuade one of his local pubs, in Brighton, to let him have the bar, but only for 2 hours. Ren set up all the audio, went through the piece with Kai and the girls a few times, then they recorded it live and, as usual, in a one take! Then it was back to Canada, to continue his treatment! There's no one quite like Ren! lol. His voice was golden here! Most people focus on the backing singers. Partly because they were really good, partly because the camera focused on them too. However, every time they're singing, so is Ren. Weaving his voice in and out and around theirs, expertly and beautifully! It really is quite a performance from Ren! His cheekiness and cockiness were in full flow, his guitar playing was on point, he looked great and, once again, his voice! His whole performance was first-class! In every respect! :)

You are so expressive!

Your reaction is absolutely wonderful! Lol

ohnoes we lost Roni atleast it's to Ren so you might be forgiven. Nice Ride in the Background! 😍 I like the longer Hair, doesn't beat the shorter one though :)

I came back to watch it again just because I thought you were adorable…👍🏽🐷✌🏼

Your hair may be annoying you…. But you look fantastic ❤ This is currently my favorite Ren song. Loved watching it push all of your buttons. Also, Ren is doing this song in a higher key than the original version…. About a step and a half up….. maybe a “d#” . I don’t have perfect pitch sadly so I’m not able to mail it down exactly😵‍💫

Ren has many layers, one of which is lounge lizard.

Fire.. that was dripping 😅

Ren yes Ren Roni think a little crush eh 😂

Talk about a crush roni xxx UK sends love

your working out the playing w your guitar... i failed to address this first response...is glorious. *i know im second posting again but i blame you and im just drawn this way. Call me Jessica? I Mean it when I say you brighten the room. Much Love for ja Love. I hope your day is Kind and ...and that your voice is heard. It is such a Beautiful Voice.

Love your reaction, your tomb is safe. We love you on mass. Go girl.......

🔥🔥🔥

Really enjoyed watching your reaction to Ren. Not just to his music, but it was clear how much you were into him. Definitely made it more enjoyable.

Just gotta say, you are freaking awesome!! Incredible reaction!

Ren is so 😍 in this

This is my second or third time watching your reaction to Ren and this one in particular. You made me smile and made me wish I was 45 years younger. If I was I would be in your chair right now reacting the same way! LOL I may be old, but I ain't dead yet! haha Your crush is so obvious, I love it. You'll have to fight for him, he has a main squeeze currently.

Oh! And by the way, you look stunning with short, dark hair😎

also, keep practising and you will totally get there. i believe in you.

Great reaction, thank you, it is warm lol 🙏🦉❤️🐊👍

Think you have a bad camera or something. Your skin color went from that purple hue from the lights to a bright red on the last couple lines of the song.😂thanks for your reactions and all the time and work that goes into them. It's greatly appreciated.

❤

Roni, Roni, Roni... You should be on stage. Loved your "performance". And this from a 67 year old woman. Great reaction 👏😁

Think someone has a little crush on ren 😂

Back on 74 really gives me some Fugee vibes. Loved Ren adding in a little tribute to one of his favorites, Sting. I really feel like we owe you an apology for watching this, cuz Roni... you uh, you certainly were feeling some things that deserved some privacy LOL. Right at the end, when he did the voice drop and you reached to the back of your neck... The hairs stood up didn't they? Ren got the hairs on the neck to stand, didn't he? lol

Ren did say in a recent interview that he's moving to the U.S. after his treatment ;) lol

Someone has a crush!!!! Yes, Roni, it's that obvious, lol.

LESSS GOOO

Breathe Roni breathe. We're gonna have to change your name from ThatRoni to ThirstyRoni 🤣😂🤣

♥♥♥

loving this react again. i get two votes. first because she angled me to this (Lazy Renegade here and who the hell doesn't love watching Roni in groove mode?)... second because i needed to re-watch... Rain... once again for some kind minutes of peace ☮☮ & 💜💜 darlin'... hope all is well.... mkay nuff about you and me i need to rewatch this vid again to some power of 10... 10^💜

Thanks Roni! Love the intros, you always put a smile on my face. Thanks again m8. All the best from the UK

Well Roni, Ren just announced in Knox Hills interview with him yesterday that he plans on staying in Canada until July, then to the UK to visit, and then he is MOVING to L.A.! Says it's time to take over America, so hell yes, along with mentioning his new song, Troubles, will be out May 6th I believe, and his new album, Slaughterhouse, will be dropping soon after. So yes dear, lots of great Ren-related stuff coming, along with our boy moving stateside so you can stalk him properly. Happy hunting. You're adorable watching him. Never lose that.

❤🔥👏👏

The off the riff reaction....*Swoons* Classic!

Roni needs a new Playlist Titled That Hot 🔥 Roni , back on 74 listed first

You so cute when your lusting 😂, but this was sooooo smooth!!, the one thing about Ren is when you think you have him figured he goes and does something totally unexpected! 🤍

lol. I loved you all!

🌹

This is by far one of my most favorite reactions of yours!! The way you giggled and blushed, but truly loved the song too, was so fun to watch, and refreshing compared to a lot of reactors out there. I've thought this for a while, but always hesitated to say it, because people sometimes don't like being compared to celebs or characters, but I'm gonna burst if I don't say it....Monica, from Friends!!! There, I said it. You need to know that comes from a very good and complimentary place though. Many moons ago, when I wore a younger mans clothes, Monica was my "it" girl, on my "it" TV sitcom, hell, I had a crush on her when I didn't even know her name, when Courtney Cox had a cameo in Bruce Springsteen's video "Born In The USA". Anyway, it's not that you look exactly like her, or anything, I always loved the character Monica, not only was she adorably cute, smart and sexy, (which you have that too, don't even get me started 😍😍) but I LOVED the juxtaposition of her life circumstances, especially in the early seasons of the show. Like she was just on the edge of holding everything together, and losing control of her life at any second, mixed with her OCD and need for order and a plan for everything, mixed with a big giant heart and so much love for all the people in her life she cared about. And I just get that vibe from you, so please don't take it as an insult, I rarely compliment people comparing them to a character I hold near n dear to my heart. Great reaction, have a great weekend!! ✌💚

Incredible reaction, no pausing just captions ❤️

Your guitar sounds great and your voice too. When is the next cooking video coming out?

Roni go have some water...you know what i mean. love your reactions keep up the good work. when are you going to star in a movie i mean come on Hollywood.
