Beautiful Place that Brighton Beach and the Town seems to love Their Buskers because Ren seems Free to Roam the City any time of the Day or Nite in His Posts.
Another tremendous medley of songs that shouldn't work together for normal thinking folk, but these two make it special. You're right, Ren's guitaring sets the melody throughout. As an aside, I was in Brighton a few weeks ago, after a super day, stumbled upon this very road. As soon as I saw The Ivy, Browns and the Church, I felt like I was walking onto a film set! All those busking tunes going through my head!
@@redheadedneighbor Not as jealous as I am watching the lucky people that managed to see Ren and co playing om the streets! That would have been special! Nice to feel the vibe though!
HAHA!!! Way more than a triple threat. Also an amazing lyricist , produces and mixes most of his own tracks, plays piano and bass, directs his videos and is working on making a pilot to try to sell to Netflix. All while getting treatment in Canada for autoimmunity. Is dodeca-threat a word????
Another very enjoyable reaction. Glad to see you further explore these amazing artists. I would also recommend that you check out Sam Tompkins's solo work; he is truly gifted. Sam has a number of songs, "Bloodline," "Hero," "Follow Suit," “Whole,” and “Not So Grey,” that address some serious issues like family, mental health, su*c*de, and other struggles. "You Broke My Heart So Gently," "Critical," "You're The Love Of My Life," “Google Luv,” “Ten Feet Apart,” and his cover of Tears For Fears' "Mad World" are beautiful, but his entire catalog is well-worth listening to. I usually prefer the acoustic version of his songs. His latest release, "Time Will Fly," is currently my favorite song of his and one of my favorite songs overall, with "See Me" and "Lose It All" running close behind. His rendition of "How To Save A Life (Cover)" is also stunning and really reveals his soulfulness. Unfortunately, it is way too short, not the full-length version of the original.
It’s filmed in Ship Street (I think 🤔), Brighton. An American I knew, who visited it, described the city’s vibe as a cross between Coney Island and San Francisco in the 1960s, if that makes sense. It’s a very tolerant place, but it can be a bit seedy.
@@redheadedneighbor in germany it's also there, a lot of people stop enthusiastically when they hear special musicians. I saw a musician from Ireland, many years ago, who sang so impressively, my heart still hears his voice today...
If it's any consolation, I'm not a fan of the song 'Sick Boi' and I hardly ever gravitate to it....but I LOVE your reaction to almost everything else that these guys are doing 💖
Ren, Sam, Chinchilla or The Big Push busking session videos do make you feel like you are on the streets of Brighton watching the performance in person.... Thanks
Thanks for sharing the joy! I hope Ren covers more of the early Police stuff. I love this mashup, but Ren's guitar is out of tune just enough that it makes my brain itch 😵💫 If you want to see an amazing mashup of theirs, check them out improvising around Stevie Wonder live.
I kind of like the oddity of it, I didn’t realize it was a tuning issue but it seemed to suit the joking of the song. Lol. You have ears that are a blessing and a curse. My musical friends would agree with you, I’m sure. Sometimes ignorance is bliss😆. I think the Stevie wonder improvising sounds great!
