There's a video of them meeting for the first time! Ren saw Sam without any equipment... singing... no crowd! :( Ren said here... use my stuff... you'll fill the street! The rest is history!
@eryksun I've lost track of Rens generosity... and Amazingly enough... it's rubbing off on Many People online! That's his True gift to humanity!!! If anyone deserves an award for that... he does!!!
On Sam's RU-vid channel there's a video called "REACTING TO MY OLD SINGING VIDEOS FROM 10 YEARS AGO". I suggest starting at the 12:18 time stamp to see him talk about his first meeting with Ren and showing some video from that very first meeting. I don't know if it's reaction-worthy, but it's a wonderful look at their friendship.
Busking has REALLY helped Ren in his performances. His stage presence is phenomenal. He feels everything he sings and plays. But a little useless info about where they're busking in this video. They filmed Ren's video "Animal Flow" in the apartment building across the street from them. It's the white building they're facing. At the end of Animal Flow when Ren walks outside you can see the church they're busking infront of. As always awesome reaction!
@@redheadedneighbor I’ve had it happen, I was an early follower of one channel like 200 followers in 6 months they went to 10K and forgot about their original audience. I hope your channel gets big, you are just fun. 😄
@@ericb3804 well thank you. Here’s a secret.. I don’t know what I’m doing. I just really like music.. a lot! And I get to talk to you guys so I want to keep doing it. 💕
I've seen concerts where the band had multiple 18 wheelers full of gear and didn't sound as good as these two guys with their musical wheelbarrow 😀 When is Dave going to make a guest appearance? 😸 You should react to Humble with Ren ft Eden Nash. It's a funny lyric video with a good ska/two-tone vibe.
Oh, I don’t know about Dave. Lol. He’s a menace to window blinds, my plants… I do have him on Instagram. Well, maybe I can figure something out with him and he can make a quick appearance. It will be chaos. 🤣
Enjoyed your reaction to thisse songs another fun rendition of its a man's world is Angelina live in concert at I believe she's 11 or 12 she turns lose her power which she rarely does
Great reaction... Love the smile! I would have died and gone to heaven if I wandered across them doing this live! Sam Tompkins actually has been caught busking recently. Check out Brighton Beach Busking if you want to see what he's been up to, busking-wise. Unfortunately, you might need to go to the UK to catch him on the street. As far as Ren goes, no plans announced for busking soon and I get the feeling if he leaked plans like that now, it might shut the streets down! Still, a girl can hope! 🤞
love the new 'Do (hair up) and the lip gloss smile...Sam and Ren are both amazing, but together they're fabulous..Ren's "Man's World" was incredible, not an easy song to sing. Sam, when do we start calling him "Mr. Falsetto" , lol..oh yeah I forgot about Ren's Beatboxing..thank you
Poor old Dave will be in therapy soon😂 Both are such great singers. Can you imagine stumbling across this on a street corner? I'm only about 50 miles from Brighton and had never heard of either of them until Hi Ren appeared.
@@redheadedneighbor If you ever are I'll meet you at the busking corner see who we can spot! I've only been there three or four times myself actually and that was to watch football (soccer) when the team I follow played against Brighton. Oh and once as a kid to see a Dolphin aquarium that I don't even know if it's still there.
Great reaction to an awesome performance! Another fun one with them is Improvising Around Stevie Wonder if you're looking for more to check out. :-) Oh, and hey Dave! 😺
When I told you the other day that I have a had time with Ren.. This was one of the first things of his I had seen, and I really liked it. Which caused me to look further into him. My internal jury is still out haha
I think that’s fair. The first song I heard was Hi Ren. Hated it. Didn’t understand it at all. But I kept listing and trying songs.. recently I revisited that same song with a new perspective and I was literally shocked that I “got it”
Dave the cat! To think, this busking was all happening years before I and many of us had even heard of Ren. Building a cult following with staggering performances like this. Sam Tomkins has a Rolls Royce of a voice. I love it when success is built from putting in hard yards. This over Pop Idol all day long. Thank you for this reaction. So suggestions for what's next! Anytime now, Money Game III will drop, might be worth catching up on I and II, both masterpieces. For II, he has an official video and an informal one walking along Brighton Beach. I'd do the former first as it's the complete song. The messaging in the Money Game series is off the charts, very thought provoking.
Great reaction. Brighton is our nearest big city, 30 miles away, my son came across one of their busking secessions while he was there shopping, - I Shot The Sheriff and - War Pigs, it was during the time of lock down and all music venues were shut down. #HOG in the UK
I will admit that when I first heard Sam, he sounded derivative to me. I thought he was trying to sound like someone else. I took a bit, but I realized he's just going with what he's got and developed. Now I've seen his busking and his original stuff, and damn but he impresses me. You got a voice like that, of course you run with it.
Did it get a little warm in that room?! Good thing you were dressed appropriately! 😅 Great to watch you be immersed in the music. Next watch I Shot the Sheriff/Road to Zion/Hip Hop. The whole group is amazing!
@@redheadedneighbor They were doing a video here. They got a budjet and they got few cameras. This was planned, but the way they performed on the street is still next level.
I love Sam so much. I literally have never heard anything he's done that I wasn't stunned by... Other than Falling. He just got into a pitchy pocket. Genuinely, Sam is my guy, I just have a hard time with this one. Especially if it's someone's introduction to him.
I just love it. I have been lucky enough to have heard a few of his songs and he is top notch. In interested in him being pitchy in a song. Now I want to hear it. Lol.
Sam's great but he's a bit of a one trick pony, for my tastes. He does that trick well but that's all he does, over and over again. Ren's on another level entirely! ...and I mean vocally so, never mind his myriad of other exceptional talents! :)
@@redheadedneighbor I like when owners call their pets Human names, i know a labrador called dave and a british bulldog called Kevin 😆 dave the brave until he can't see you lol
Here is the origin story how ren and sam first met one another, told from sam himself in 2020: ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-4QPXy9IZCW8.html Mandatory ren lore.
