You don’t need to use any filters for Rens content as he allows people to use his art freely, This is a masterpiece that everyone should see, pure art, all done with just a guitar, Ren can creates such vivid scenes in your head with just a few words and tone of voice, I’ve done a breakdown of the main characters in these tales with my theories of how they all fit together on my YT.
Apparently the content still gets copyright and fair use claims, REN and his distributor are now commenting on reactors videos saying that he has no issues with reactors using his music, yet RU-vid and others are still trying to strike them for doing so, and has advised if the reactors gets a strike to mention that REN and his team approve them to react to it
@@DJQUAZER I have a Ren reaction dropping tomorrow, it says copyright but I looked deeper and it says “copyright protected content found. the artist allows this content to be used on RU-vid “ so I wouldn’t worry it’s not a copyright strike
Ren's on a completely different level to Ed Sheeran!. Ed may be more successful and on a big label but he could only wish that he has a quarter of the talent that Ren has! Ren's a truly unique artist. A musical genius! A once in a generation talent! :)
I mean, Ed's a talented guy. And he can rap, apparently. But he's just a bit vanilla. Record label has to sell records kind of vanilla. That's fine for the kids. But the grown ups need music too! Enter Ren.
Ren is a modern troubadour and a true Renaissance man. Great reaction so far. It's a long one and I've yet to finish watching. I can't really choose between this and "Hi Ren", and in fact he's got so many songs that hit in so many ways, but having said that, "Hi Ren" will always hold a special place as it was my introduction to Ren.
Ren actually wrote and recorded "Violets Tale" a couple of years after the first two, when he came up with the idea of how to complete the cycle. Great reaction.
Thanks you so much, we are so impressed with his ability and versatility, extremely skilled , we're so excited to listen to more! Thanks for tuning in again! and thanks for the sub! plenty more Ren to come!
I think "Bard" was the word he was looking for to describe Ren and his method of old-time storytelling. Ren is definitely a modern-day bard. I could picture him traveling around medieval times with a harp entertaining people in taverns.
People rushing to google to see what a bard is after someone mentioned it a year ago and now everyone is using it to describe Ren as if they just came up with it
It’s widely suspected that Jenny was probably a prostitute…what 14 year old is walking the streets late at night, alone, in heels. Streets she’s walked a thousand times before. I think one of the really interesting details is in Violet’s take at the beginning, before he starts walking…he has to gather himself to tell this difficult tale. Ren said that performing this takes a mental toll on him. Done the wrong way, Violet’s take could be off putting or even exploitative…but he handles it with such care. Can’t wait for you guys to discover all of his sides…I think he’s a once-in-a-lifetime artist and it’s been fun watching other people discover him.
Paddington is sexworker central. So, yes with the other factors of walking the steets a thousand times before etc, Jenny is a prostitute. And Ren wrote the song after reading about the murder of a 14 year old prostitute.
@@sarahholland2600 I think it was a prostitute murdered by a 14 yr old boy. I'm not aware of the woman who inspired the story's age, perhaps you're correct.
Loved this reaction! Like i said, see Ren, press play. Money Game series has 3 parts as well. Love Music has 4, and Su!cide has a sequel called For Joe. All those are dope, and if you want some crazy stuff, check out Illest of Our Time, Hunger, Animal Flow, Genesis, Fisher Take remix...or any of the songs off his hip hop album.
Legend! Thanks for tuning in again Ryder! we appreciate these suggestions, might check out the money game series next, as quite a few people have mentioned them ones, we'll try listen to as many Ren songs as possible as we're really feeling him as an artist, very different and refreshing listening to such a versatile artist with such powerful music
You need to check out his live 360 version of these tales. He posted on social media and told people to go to Brighton rail statoin. They we're met by guys in masks and lead to a secret location for a free live version of the tales. The car park where he filmed screeches tale. About a thousand people turned up for an amazing show he performed extra content including a poem and a short song about Richard the police officer. You can pan the camera around and see the reaction of the crowd its wicked guys. On another note I've seen other reactors on youtube press the J button on the keyboard to go back ten seconds. Great reaction by the way guys.
All Screech knows when he feels scared or insecure is violence-that’s why he lashes out after seeking help in the only way he knows how. Violence is an expression of pain.
This series is too good. There's a ton to unpack. The way he caps Screech's tale at the start and end. "This story it starts right at the end" and "This story it ends right at the start". The unspoken character painting with words in Jenny's Tale. High heeled ahoes, 14 y/o. Implying her working as street girl running away from a foster home as you find out at the end. The amazing parallel between the narrative in Violet's Tale and the accoustics. Violet's Tale goes from closed in to escapaing to closed in to escaping etc ertc and the camera and spatial acoustics follow the journey. Just a few of the many little gems tucked away in this epic. I couldnt tell you how many views this needs to experience fully because everytime I listen I find more nuggets of gold. Def recommend relistening more than once. Cheers.
So glad you commented on the start/end then end/start! I love how breathy he is with the word "our" as if to emphasize that each took their last breath
Yes, when Ren is storytelling like this it's gained the name 'Bardcore,' and one reactor actually mentioned the show 'The Witcher' and the character of 'Jasker.' A Medieval Troubadour or Bard. The Tales are based upon a police blotter article in a paper Ren read, it was the story of a young prostitute killed by another youth during a mugging, then a responding officer killing the youth. In the article the commanding officer was quoted saying 'they were so young, it's such a shame.' 'It's such a shame' is a phrase Ren uses throughout The Tales. They were made a year apart, originally just Jenny & Screech, telling the story in the paper, but Violet's Tale was created to bring them back together as a story of multigenerational trauma, abuse, and neglect. Some seem to miss that Violet's father 'tuck her tight, but never left the room. I'll spare you with the things he did, I'm sure her mother knew.' She got out at 16, and to get a council flat under a welfare scheme she was likely pregnant, by her father. Stevie calls her a 'little liar' and a 'fucking slut,' this could be because he figured out that she was pregnant before they got together. Levels. 'Hi Ren' was the gateway acid trip for most who found him, and then explored the pharmacopeia of his back catalog as well as the strains of his new releases. 'Hi Ren' I'd put in his personal journey - illness path, while 'The Tales' are more of his social justice sort of work. Here is what I can think of for recommendations: Ren Gill Music journey - his illness path: Crutch Diazepam Chalk Outlines How to Be Me Sick Boi Cross between his path and his childhood best friend: Freckled Angels Suic*de For Joe Social Justice songs: Dominos Money Game Part 1 Money Game Part 2 Money Game Part 3 Eden
It’s still crazy to me how he does these videos in one take and live. You can especially tell in violets tale with him using the different acoustics of the hospital to change his tone
The next Trilogy you need to listen too now is , Money Game (pt. 1-2-3). Not a linear story like this, but more like a linear subject in 3 different perspectives... enjoy! ;)
Your reactions are perfect! It is so evident how excited and appreciative you both are about the music and artistic performance. At the same time, getting caught up in the stories themselves brought about their own reactions in your facial expressions and body language. So cool how this kind of art can elicit so much variety in emotion.
Yea you guys are pretty spot on in you understanding of the songs. Jenny and Screech are twins but due to Violet being murdered, it seems that their dad would’ve been thrown in prison and they were set into a foster care like system and were separated very early on. Despite not knowing their parents or each other, they are direct reflections of their biological parents. Stevie, was abusive and violent, and Screech is also very violent. While, Violet is timid and quiet, so is Jenny because she froze and didn’t speak to Screech when he approached her. The song was inspired by a story Ren saw in the news of a 14 year old being arrested for murdering a prostitute. Despite the origin of the song and the songs themselves being very depressing Ren’s intentions behind the song are to bring awareness to senseless violence but also a reminder that history repeats itself and in many ways it’s ingrained in us and passed down through generations unless someone stands up to break the chains of bondage
Thanks for reacting to this. For me, the reason this story is important is that it shows Ren's empathy to the human condition which he has developed from his hardship. It shows Ren's genius as a story teller and shows his compassion (he composed a musical tragic story to honor the memory of people whose lives are tragically ended). I believe he points out in his "Eden" video how our current system is lacking and that mankind should exercise their gift of Free Will and turn this hell on earth into a better place.
Let me begin by saying, you two are beautiful people. Seeing siblings like yourselves, makes me regret never having children. You guys have amazing chemistry, I’m sure your parents are proud of how you both turned out. I’m very curious to hear some of your music. Being British, you guys must find it inspiring that one of the greatest musical talents of our time is your countryman. Ren is amazing, im excited to see your journey into his amazing catalog of diverse greatness. Very easy Sub for me, you guys are great!
Oh I'm so glad you found Ren he's truly a modern day Bard. Loved the reaction you're discussions are amazing. Now Jenny and Screech lost they're mom and dad cause he killed her so they went to foster homes and started the cycle so sad cause Violets own father was sexually abusing her which is why she was quiet all the time please react to the Hunger cause he can rap his but off and beat box which you hear at the end of the song
I really love your reactions guys and this one was great. I can’t wait to follow you down this rabbit hole there is so much to discover. I won’t recommend anything for you to do next because you’ll have so many recommendations from others and anything by Ren is 🔥 See you next time 😊
I am cleaning and your video just popped up. I’m so glad that my algorithm found you. I wanted to take a moment just to say how much I really enjoyed your reaction to this. Will definitely check out your other reactions! Thanks
thank you for reacting to this masterpiece, Ren has a fun song called losing it, am loving your reactions also the money game 1 2 and 3 amazing, love you guys ❤❤
Listen to anything from Ren and I'll listen along with you. And share more about your musicianship. As a fellow musician, I will listen. I love how authentic you both are.
I recommend you guys check out his collaboration with x Chinchilla “Chalk Outlines” next. The vocals are so raw and real (and the lyrics are astounding, it is Ren after all). Gorgeous!
The Eden is incredible. We were blocked from listening to it by the "adult content". It took another cell phone without any parental control to get to the performance. It was surprised that there were no profanities it the text
Loved the reaction and now im super excited to see your journey into the Reniverse. So many surprises to come, enjoy. 💙 Keep stepping forwards. Edited to say check out "wicked ways" its audio only but my favourite off his sick boi ablum.
This is my second viewing of your reactions to REN and I am now a huge fan of you two! Very intelligent commentary that shows a real appreciation of new music. Love it and looking forward to more of your reactions.
Welcome to 'Bardcore' This guy is pretty well fabulous at most of the stuff he does. Give yourselves a little palate cleanser now and give something like 'Losing it, (Fisher Rap Retake) a whirl. Also. Talk to Rens people on his RU-vid page here and he will clear it for you to use his stuff without having to mess about with it.
I've seen some comments on other reactions to this video thst suggest that the reason Patrick isn't in and Screechs girl is busy is one and the same reason....... they are together
Screech was pumped with adrenaline from a burglary gone wrong. There is a prequel to the tales of Jenny and Screech. Search for… Ren Screech tale stories. Read the description or the pinned comment, because Ren explains the hassle he went through to create the stories and to promote the videos. It is a must see!!! Enjoy.
Very much enjoyed U2... keep doing Ren... w the mostly undesirable main stream music that we are stuck w today (actually before Ren it has been many years since Ive listened to new music, could get all my 90's and previous generations of music pretty easily) Ren was a breath of freah air. But now Ren is in my top 5 artists of all time and truth be told he isn't 2, 3, 4, or 5...didn't really have a 1 previous just a top 5 but after almost a year of listening to close to nothing but Ren I hope you keep on digging inro his catalog because it is like no other singer or bands play list...it fits no genre of music...it ia its own Renre and it is like nothing the worlds ever seen. And you will come to find that his story and from what ive seen his heart is as amazing! Hope you dive into the world of Ren and enjoy the ride! ✌️❤
In this video, he was a real contemporary Bard.There is a live (with crowd) of the Story of Jenny & Screech (with an extra in the song) in full 360, we can move the camera : Ren - The Tale of Jenny and Screech (Full 360 Live Performance) : ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-S_hs8EkWeZg.html
You never have to pause A Ren video if you dont want to or just cant, If you are flagged for copyright contest it and ren will handle it, guaranteed. Ren, loves his reaction channels. if you're getting absorbed into the video watch it, react a little later. just for future reference so far your reaction is awesome. Edit I posted this near the middle of Jenny's tell. Your reaction is solid, I'm subscribing.
Loved your thoughtful reaction. I needed to increase my volume to hear the brothers voice. Don't know if anyone else had this problem. Very happy to subscribe to you guys.
The Brother will pronounce his words better and stop mumbling - The Brother xD (I'm not used to speaking aloud, most of my dialogues are internal observations, so this is all new to me! thanks for tuning in!)
You mention a tavern. He's like a wandering minstrel. I've watched loads of ren reactions. You two were intelligent sensitive and insightful. Don't stop reacting... youre really good
