Vocal Coach Reacts To REN - 'HI REN' Vocal Analysis 

I’m really sorry for not including the ending. I thought it would be the best thing for Ren to bring more people over to his original video. I don’t know what to do about it, I uploaded the full version to our Patreon after but maybe I should delete this and reupload, I just don’t know. I would just ask you to please not bully me about it. I have had so many comments telling me ‘how dare I do such a terrible thing’… I LOVED this performance. I loved Ren. He brought me to tears, I respect him and his art whole heartedly. If you watch this video, which I spent 10 hours in total filming and analysing and editing in honour of this performance and you are offended, just click off. To be honest, I am really sensitive (you might have guessed that!) and every time I read something mean it destroys my confidence. Just please think before you ruin someone’s day who had benevolent intentions.

Genuinely loved watching this :) ive watched a tonne of people react to my track and you did it in a way i haven't seen done, your words really moved me alot and i appreciate the support

I gathered a little background on Ren from his posts and an interview. Ren pursued a career in music from an early age. In 2009, while studying music performance at Bath Spa University, he began to experience health issues and was struggling to attend his lectures. In 2010, he was signed by Sony Records and was working on an album when his health deteriorated to the point where he was unable to continue and subsequently dropped by Sony. His illness often kept him in bed for up to 23 hours daily. Ren was initially diagnosed with depression, bipolar disorder, and chronic fatigue syndrome. It would take seven years before a doctor in Belgium finally correctly diagnosed Ren with autoimmunity, Lyme disease, and resulting damage to the brain, organs, and joints. Ren eventually underwent stem cell therapy in the United States, which improved his health, but it has not been a cure. He is currently in Canada for more treatments and will have to be there for at least six months. Ren's Canadian doctor discovered that Ren also developed a condition called Mast Cell Activation Disorder, which has affected the myelin sheath in his brain, thyroid, adrenals, and bones. Ren stated: "It's a lot to wrap my head around having to be away from friends, family, and a successful career, and almost feels like a total juxtaposition to the fact that my music is blowing up right now and spreading to all corners of the world, but that's life, we take the good with the bad." Let's keep supporting Ren and not pull a "Sony" on him as he undergoes his treatment. Check out his channel, listen to some of his earlier work, like and comment on his performances, and let's lift Ren's spirits. If you are a believer, pray for him. Ren is an artist with something to say to this generation, and his work is needed in these troubling times.

This is a watershed moment in contemporary art. This transcends song form, and breaks new ground in communicating psychic distress and faith in psychological redemption. An astounding masterpiece.

Many people have nodded their heads to this genius recently Lolly. You are one of the very few who not only instinctively understand the dark wisdom that permeates this song but can articulate it so fluently to others.

I have listened to this song over a hundred times now, and I still tear up and get chills every single listen.

I'm sure other people may have already mentioned this, but for any future reactions to Ren - you don't have to worry about copywrite with his songs. He allows (and appreciates) reactions to his music in full

Ren is a unicorn. A fabled beast that shouldn't exist, but here he is. Love the reaction!

I've watched over two dozen reactions to this song and this was by far the most educational one, there are people that turn it into a 30 minute video and manage to add nothing. I've also not seen this format where someone reacts to the entire thing without pausing it then goes back in and edits in their thoughts afterwards, although most reactors barely take the time to edit their videos if at all, this somehow feels more respectful to the music itself. You've got my sub.

You are ridiculously genuine and have an entirely human response to this, which is completely devoid of being contrite. Not only do you react unashamedly with an open heart to this, you then deliver a fantastic technical analysis of the journey and intent of the vocal and musical nuisances that intertwine with his performance and message, highlighting further the sheer brilliance behind this piece of art. I have been deeply affected by this song as like many others. It is unashamedly raw and honest raw and honest and I think you sum it up perfectly when you use the word brave. I have acute OCD, ADHD and PBD, family history of mental illness and I have used music as my healing both writing, playing and listening my whole life, looking for other wounded people who can relate, because when you share emotion in this universal way it is special, when it's your own music that someone connects with, it takes some beating for emotional connection. I've watched every reaction video on this I think looking for validation of how deeply this has effected me and you have provided that wonderfully, so thank you. I think it's testament to your skillet and life experience that you shared in return an emotional response for the man himself. Almost like your message back to him as the validation of his message, but more importantly as almost a counsellor to say its OK Ren, I see you, you're doing great x

This is a weird listen as a therapist, it feels like a musical version of a session. That idea of "it feels like a failure when it comes back" is a REALLY good point, and why one of the most important parts of therapy is FINISHING therapy: a good relapse prevention plan so you can STAY well is arguably more important than getting well in the first place. Always important to recognise the difference between a LAPE and a RELAPSE. Don't lose the perspective of how far you have come. Much love Wren

I’ve said it before, but you always handle these more emotional songs so well, responding to the overall experience while also giving us such a detailed breakdown. So thanks for doing that again.

you def need to check out his song "chalk outlines" afterwards. the live version. also a very powerful song

Actually, it's very interesting, that a monologue that tries to demonstrate several characters at the same time is such a classical artform in japan (it's called rakugo, just in case you never heard about it), someone had the ABSOLUTELY BRILLIANT idea of putting that in a musical style, and made it so vulnerable and so personal at the same time. Congrats to him for making it like that.

Ren posted this update on his health on Friday, 27, January 2022: "I don't know why I find it so hard to share this information, I guess because I never wanted to make my health problems my identity, I feel like Ren the person is so much more than Ren the health victim, but if this journey I'm on can help anyone else going through the same thing, its worth swallowing my pride. A lot of people have been asking me for my treatment update, and ive been replying individually but then getting a lot of emails and messages which is quite overwhelming to try and respond to them all, especially during treatment, so I'd be super grateful if anyone sees comments on my videos/posts etc asking how treatments going if you could point them in the direction of this post. I've been treating here in canada for the past week and a half now. I sat down with the doctor and he explained last week that through all the extensive testing he did back in October, including lots of blood work ups, X-rays, samples etc. and MRI scans of my brain that the damage to my body from a having misdiagnosed Lyme disease and autoimmunity was quite extensive. There was significant damage to parts of my brain and many inflammatory markers in my body. The obvious markers of pathology were antibodies to the myelin in my brain, thyroid, adrenals, and bones and a condition called Mast Cell Activation Disorder which would explain my symptom picture quite well. To put it simply my immune cells have been attacking my own body. Because my immune systems been compromised by years of basically being at war by itself it has also held on to some long standing viral infections and not been able to detox things like mold/heavy metals/and toxins properly. Initially the plan was to be here for 3 months but because of the complexity of what's going on he's said i'll need to be here for 6 months minimum. It's a lot to wrap my head around having to be away from friends, family and a successful career and almost feels like a total juxtaposition to the fact that my music is blowing up right now and spreading to all corners of the world, but thats life, we take the good with the bad. The good news is because we now know what's wrong, we now have a road map for healing. I know its not going to be an easy path, but I know its one i'm determined to walk. I had to quit smoking cold turkey last week for obvious reasons while going through treatment which was one of my crutches for when I was stressed, so have felt the withdrawals messing with my mood a bit this week, but I've got a solid reason to quit, so I'm just bareknuckling it. I'm currently going into the clinic for IV's every Monday to Friday for an hour, firstly trying to build my body up by correcting all the nutritional deficiencies that were found due to being on a restricted diet for so long, and also implementing a lot of stress reduction techniques to get my body optimised for healing. Also found some low grade inflammation from some dental problems so will be going in for surgery to correct that in February to ensure there's nothing contributing to inflammation in my body. Once i'm in a stronger place to deal with it I'll start treating with antivirals and more aggressive treatments. The most positive thing, is I looked my doctor in the eye, who is used to treating countless very complex cases, and asked him, if there's a chance I can get back to being in a pain free body with the energy of a healthy person, and he said if I stick to this, there is a good chance I can either get my autoimmunity into remission and recover or at least make enough improvements to live a much more comfortable life. Want to thank everyone for supporting my music because that's been the best silver lining to this I could have asked for, reading through comments of support for Hi Ren and Sick Boi has really elevated my spirits, and having an exciting future to look forward too makes this process much easier, so thank you! Ren"

Ren is a life-changing artist who transcends genres and seems to connect with everyone who hears his music. He projects a raw emotional honesty that is incredibly unique and genuine and honest in a way that I have never heard before. And, to top it all off, he is just getting better and better! So happy to see you react to him as you are also unique and amazing. Two of RU-vid’s best intersecting is about as much as any of us could ask for! Cheers from Texas!

He feels this with every part of his body, he spits while he is his negative subconscious and in his monolog he is actually crying, this meant so much to him and it shows. I cry every single time I watch it

Suffering from double depression and depersonalization myself for decades by now, I am deeply impressed by his way of dealing with his diseases / demons. A musical / theatrical and especially human experience of its own.

I have watched soooo many Hi Ren reactions. Yours is the first that mentioned something that I have thought regarding the end vocal. I think it is quite evident that the shadow/despair version of ren is not gone, but has been accepted. This is given away by the lights flashing madly as they do in all the shadow verses, and this merging has given the vocal much more power and depth than the first iteration we see at the beginning. Loved your analysis, keep up the good work.

"Cower at the man I've become!" Gets me every time.

It's beautiful to watch . I been here all week I am not a youtube botherer at all but I cant stop watching the react vids to this and now his other tracks It's beautiful to watch him get the recognition he deserves I've not been so excited by an artist for years!

the way this song is written is the rawest and most visceral interpretation of a bad conversation with yourself i've ever heard, and i love it for that

I watch a lot of reactions. I've been watching a lot of (100 to this song) Ren reactions. But it's rare that I re-watch reaction videos. But this is an amazing exception. I could listen to her analysis and commentary 24/7. Nobody else is not only that knowledgeable and profound, but also so humane and real, honest, likeable, understanding and just over all nice. Thank you for making these great videos, thank you for being exactly you and thank you for combining both and gifting us with the result.

Those that have known the pitch black always seem to recognize one another. We know the weight of it, its ability to disintegrate the best bits of us, and we learn it cannot be abandoned, only carried. ✊✌️🖖

I'm not one to spend much time on YT, but weirdly I have watched loads of reactions to Ren's masterpiece, and yours is the only one I'm saving - such a fantastic reaction, combining musical knowledge (which I appreciate as I have none), high EQ, compassion, intelligence and life wisdom in one so young - a wonderful embrace of and tribute to this young man's amazing opus. Great work, thank you! (Oh wait, I also saved Justin Hawkins' reaction, but that's Justin Hawkins', woo!)

"Gallant" is such a great word to describe Ren.

The sweetest reaction I've seen, not pausing the video is totally understandable, I've cried every time I've heard this song and and I loved that you did the same 😍

I am always drawn to how he refers to “… and I stand here beside you today.” Anyone else would say “…. Stand here before you…” but Ren is beside them. He’s not an outsider standing apart from the audience… he’s one them, standing WITH them. It’s a subtle difference, but it matters.

I just KNEW you'd see EVERYTHING in this song!!!! It is so brilliant! THANK YOU!!! I loved your reaction too. I could see how you heard "Ren" and took it as "Wren", it hit deeper than just crying, instead of your heart, it hit your soul. Nice. I keep editing this because I see so many other things, like how much your production has changed over the years. Well Done! ALSO, Ren is totally independent and will never copyright strike people. He comments on reactors often. I mention this so you can check out "The Tale of Jenny & Screech (Full)" in confidence. Warning, it's darker, being closer to real life fantasy.

I thought I was subscribed already. I relate to both Ren and your reaction of his performance. I've suffered from a psychotic illness for about 13 years, causing me to hear voices very similar to the one Ren portrays, and sometimes worse. His speech in the end holds so true for me. Fighting my illness hasn't been the answer. Trying not to worry about what I can't change and focusing on doing the best I can with the hand I've been dealt has made all the difference. It gets better with time, perseverance and patience with oneself. Thanks for sharing your reaction and analysis.

1st time seeing your videos and I just gotta take the time to mention how great a job you did on this reaction. Super insightfull, professional analysis and I got to nerd out on the theory and more musical side of it. Excellent job noticing all the little details particularly from the musicians lens and how it all ties together to make this art. Also really enjoyed your well done editing and humor, bonus points for the cutback clips with written explanations or examples to explain what you would be trying to convey. Very impressed, will be checking out more of your content!

I can't believe you only have 177k subs. Don't want to compare to other people but doesn't seem right. You walk that fine line between reaction and analysis so well. Genuine yet honest.

His talent is mindblowing. His music is like nothing I've ever heard. Not to mention his acting is amazing too. A true unique artist.

I've watched dozens of reactions to this incredible performance by Ren over the last week or two and I must say yours is one of the best and most enlightening I've seen. Really enjoyed your explanations and viewpoint on this masterpiece. Thanks.❤

What a song, blown away 😳 I've never been hit so deep by a piece of music in my 43 years. 👌

I was here for the premiere and I am glad I was. A truly honest, raw reaction to this masterpiece of work. Ren is a true artist. This video was recorded live in one take, for as he said in a blog post, "Less than a thousand pounds". He did the mastering himself and the sound quality makes my picky ears happy. The message this piece conveys is something this world needs now, more than ever. "We are all human beings." Just so, so awesome. Much love from the southeastern US, Atlanta.

wow! this was super authentic, respectful and well done. Thank you :) Whoever reads this, have a great week

Never seen any of your videos but you did a REALLY good job. Very impressed.

Don't worry, I've watched almost every reaction to this song and I also cry almost everytime. That part where he stands up gets me. I've been trying to "stand up" for a long time now. I'm getting closer everyday. Life is hard, but can get better.

When the ending was left off I was not concerned. We have access to the whole thing whenever we want. Your reaction was well complete and intelligent. When intelligent people make decisions, I have learned to accept them with an open heart. You have heart. You are respected.

This is probably the best breakdown of the song I've seen so far. Both because you analyzed it musically and because you connected with it emotionally and personally.

I am speechless. I can only say "well done" to the both of you.

Thanks for watching the piece through before your analysis! So many have broken it up and diminished the overall impact with pauses for part analysis. His performance was raw, real and open - something that sadly doesn't seem to sell in the modern market. He speaks truth from his life with talent and passion, which is probably why this piece has attracted so much attention in the 'reaction community'. Self-reflection and bravery are, imo, the core of impactful art.

I love your channel! I live in Hendersonville. TN on Johnny Cash Blvd. What a beautiful piece this is. I've grown up in Nashville and we watched The Grand Ole Opry as a family every Saturday night after Hee Haw. You have such talent laced in your commentary it's very immpressive.

Ren is a genius. Thanks for doing this

What an amazing song! Nice reaction too. I've taken singing classes with Ren's mum, who is a singer, songwriter, voice coach and choir leader. It really helped me a lot.

One of the best reactions I've seen, explaining musically Ren's technical intention has helped me see that artistry that has gone into every second of this masterpiece.

This is gonna be good

Brilliant reaction and break down. I love what you said about how there were so many human experiences in the song, and at least one of them is bound to flow into our river. That was beautiful. I also had some kind of awakening in that musical change at about 10:05, the first time I heard it. This is where I feel Ren was really able to connect us together. How I see it, he was telling us that his demon is our demon. This wasn't just Ren's inner demon that was his, and his only. This was Ren telling us that everyone has this "same" demon. It just does different things inside different people, depending on their lives, or situations. "I am x, I am y, I am z". The demon was basically saying I am the cause of everything. Any bad shit you can think of, he/she was the cause of it. That was really explosive to the story of the song. He did that so well, and it gave me this immediate thought that all the bad thoughts I've had in my life, come from the same place that Ren's bad thoughts came from. This being is in all of us, and we could technically see it as the same being. We think we're very different, and that no one gets us. But this song just showed how similar we are.

❤️❤️❤️❤️ a superb reaction as usual...I adore you. I've been obsessed with Ren's music for weeks and will get back to the rabbit hole directly after this 😂

As someone that is chronically ill and mentally ill, the entire Hi Ren gripped me by the throat and entirely choked me up. Ren is a master in our day and age.

I really really liked your reaction and what you picked up in the music and Ren's amazing vocal gifts. And what you said at 9 minutes - that is why this is so powerful - Any one, or i should speak personally i guess; this is how mean an inner voice can be. And when i heard this, i had never heard Ren before - i had to hear this often because Ren's powerful hope - I cry nearly every time i hear the song, at the same time i feel some thing hard in me has melted. and i can't find words. for the first time i'm afraid my illness with kill me - rather than me taking myself out of the illness. Absolutely inspiring. I am grateful to this amazing young man. i could wish for half that strength .here comes end , time too cry again.

Another exquisite reaction. Emotional, informative, beautiful, articulate...You matched the vibe and the complexity of the video. So good!

Great, now get Elizabeth and Julia involved! We need this song to go the distance.

THE BEST REACTION ON RU-vid TO THIS SONG !!!

Revisiting this a year later, and you are clearly a witch. And I mean that in the most positive way possible. The way that you so deeply understood what is so brilliant about Ren and this song gives me hope for humanity. I would love to watch you react to his 1M subscribers video. No singing, just Ren the person speaking from the heart.

That was awesome Lolli is the gift that keeps giving

Yes!! this song is Epic

This woman renews my faith in humanity. I can’t say much more than that. You brought me a lot of joy and thank you.

Many thanks my friend great reaction love and respect from up north nidderdale the Yorkshire dales love and respect 👍👍👍👍👍👍🌟😀😀 amazing channel 👍

I also caught that thing he did with his voice. I thought he was a touch off key. You are the first reactor to also notice and explain it! Thank you!

Lolli, you have quickly become one of my favorite reactors. Your knowledge and phenomenal talent (which allows for incredible demonstrations of the techniques you are reacting to) are a part of it. But it is your emotional connection to music that keeps me coming back. I discovered Ren and this extraordinary piece of art about three weeks ago, and I haven’t been the same since. It touched my soul in a way that was startling. I think those of us who have “stood in the flames” as Ren says connect to music, especially pieces like this, on a very visceral level. It confirms my belief that with great pain comes great beauty. I hesitated watching anything else for two weeks after. I couldn’t imagine anything touching me like this piece did, and frankly I wasn’t ready to break the spell. Then two days ago I watched “Chalk Outlines,” a collaboration between Ren and an extraordinary artist named Chinchilla. I am almost 53 years old, a father of three, and I literally burst into tears at the end of Chalk Outlines. Whether or not you react to it here, I urge you to watch it. I think it will move you. Thank you for this lovely channel. You are facilitating human connection, and people are desperate for that right now. What you do matters more than you know.

You’re one of my favorite reactors and how I missed your reaction to this I’ll never know but I am glad. I’ve enjoyed watching tons of Hi Ren reactions where people have highlighted bits and pieces before seeing yours where you grabbed all those details and more. What an amazing analysis.

Oh wow! I LOVED your reaction and specially your analysis. It was emotive, empathic, musically technical etc Really brilliant! Thank you!

Dammit, I missed the live. If you want to see Ren singing check out Ren X Chinchilla: Chalk Outlines. Or his live street performances.

Hey, I'm new to this channel. I've just watched dozens of Hi Ren - Reactions within the last few weeks and I need to point out that yours is one of the better ones :D Loving all the technical informations, your live watching and the deep analysis. Thanks a lot

I don't often comment, even though RU-vid is my main source of entertainment. I watch a lot of music analysis, and I (like a lot of others here) just want to say that you are the best I have found here. Your technical insights, your wit and your passion for music make you a delight to watch and learn from. I get the feeling that you're genuinely experiencing the music, which is what I always hope to see, but rarely do. Thank you for what you do, and thank you for this wonderful video. PS-not including the ending was a perfectly fine choice, and I respect you directing people to Ren's channel to listen to it.

Ive watched about 50 reactions to Hi Ren (as im deeply in the rabbit warRen), yours is brilliant, thank you. X

Beautiful reaction. Illuminating more of his genius than I have divined through watching this song and the innumerable reaction videos. Thank you, fantastic job. Subbed.

Its crazy Ren unintentionally made one of the best songs ever produced

Well done Love. Continue to spread the message 😍 The world needs it.

You definitely gotta check out Ren x Chinchilla- Chalk outlines, amazing vocals by both of them, keep up the amazing reactions much love you've definitely earned a subscriber

Minor 2nd = threat. Subscribed.

I think everyone just wanted to give you an enormous hug when that tear dropped from your eye 😢🫂

What a great review and reaction!

Very interesting. I think everyone has at least two voices within, but most aren't quite as diametrically opposed to each other as this man's "voices" are. Anyway, FVM, you are clearly an intelligent and insightful person. I believe you've analyzed this performance as accurately as was/is humanly possible. I do hope the performer can conquer his demons and produce some awesome music in the future.

@TheFairyVoiceMother what a beautiful, soulful, and genuine experience you shared with us. I have seen a lot of reaction videos and I felt you do not react, you allow yourself to become a medium to experience the music you are listening to! I was moved not only by the brilliant music of @RenMakesMusic but also experienced his music through your experience! From Dimash to BeatBoxers and from Nightwish to Ren you always stay true to who you are - a beautiful, sensitive, humane being - grateful to life I get to experience your love for music - I have been where you are and sometimes reluctantly pushed to those dark corners, but music brings me back to joy -- thanks again!!

I’ve watched so many different reactions to this song and stayed with me the most. The way you explained your take on the song around 16 minutes is exactly how i felt. All of my life I’ve been drawn to music and creating music but I’ve always felt down on myself for many reasons and kept my music to myself never thinking that anyone would want to hear things I have to sing. The very first time I heard Hi Ren I felt that nothing had ever resonated with me like this song does. It really helped me accept my shitty side and accept that there’s always going to be this side of me that I’m not going be okay with but I can’t let it stop me from living my life

Each time I watch you, and that's quite a bit, I wonder why people like you are not in the forefron of the world. The world just needs more people like you. Actually have the chops to speak on the things that they are reacting to. Beautiful inside and out. You are a genuine peach of the human race. I cried when he stood up as I have been in recovery for 20yrs and although my thing was SA, I can relate to the struggle. Please keep doing what you are doing. You motivate me to be a better person, and I Love you so much.

All I want to know is who in the holy **** would downvote this. Probably the best breakdown I've see of this performance This 'song' is the greatest thing I've heard in a long long time.

I'm 69 and retired - I spend a lot of time watching reaction videos and have watched many vocal coaches react and some speak to me in a more helpful way than others. Your profound musical knowledge, your clarity, articulateness, emotionality, vulnerability and wisdom are - in my mind and for me - incomparable. You are better at what you do than Ren is at what he does, and Renis excellent. One little piece of this wisdom was in your decision to leave off Ren's speech at the end. That [I'm a reitred Lutheran minister] - was too sermonic for me; Ren's music and artistry in the song did everything it needed to do. The little sermon - for me- distracted from the brilliance of the musical song/drama. It could possibly, unwittingly (perhaps) have the effect of saying the speech was the goal and everything before was an attention grabber. You and I and many others already knew "I am human, we are human". I've had hospitalizations, been in jail @ 19 for alcohol and accidents and, later, many ECT treatments - I wondered how much of the pathos of Ren's life, and I'm being slightly facetious might be attributed to a little deer tick, carrying Lyme disease - what would Ren's music and story be like without that little tick. Lyme's disease from people I know who've had it is almost completely unpredictable and inscrutable in its effects. P.S. I'm in north central Minnesota, south of Winnipeg, Manitoba and white-tailed deer are almost more numerous than people. I really very much appreciate your analysis - your studio which we see is colorful, lively; hope and joy permeate through it.

I really like this style of analysis. When you watch the whole video without stopping, you never lose the mood and we see your genuine reaction to it. I think you should try this more often even though it's a pain to edit.

Just nice seeing someone else cry as much as I do every fucking time I hear this song.

I thought you did an excellent job dissecting a truly brilliant song. I’ve watched many reaction videos to this track and yours stands out as professionally approached and insightful. Could you please do the same for “the Tale of Jenny and Screech (full version), also by REN. I would love to hear your take on this trilogy of songs. Thanks.

Lolli you are a treasure and a lovely woman. Your musical knowledge is unparalleled in this genre and your willingness to dig deep into the meaning and emotion of the music is disarming and refreshing. Love you and you always brighten my day.

Thank you for sharing your reaction to this song. very powerful song and a very powerful and thoughtful reaction.

i think i have watched around 100 reactions on "hi ren" so far. this was one of the best.

I have watched a ton of reactions to this wonderful musical theater. Yours is one of the best love thank you

I love your reactions, not only are you super good at explaining things, but you also get sincerely emotional with songs like this. Keep at it!

Wow! Your analysis of this is so much better than the doctors and therapists out here that I have seen reacting to this. Right away, you saw this story of Ren for what it was - one person with many sides, and not some battle against a destructive force that needs to be vanquished. Thank you! I needed this reaction, and I needed to hear Hi Ren for the umpteenth time...

Don’t know why yours popped into my feed only now, having watched dozens of Hi Ren reaction videos a couple of months ago; such are the wills of the RU-vid matching engine. Your’s was the only one I recall that realized the combining of the two sides in the outro of the song. Great reaction video, thanks!

You are much more than a vocal coach. Great presentation! Thank you.

I have never gotten sooo many chills from a song... It hits me so hard every single time and I haven't even experienced these massive struggles in life...

I loved your reaction. You’re one of the few reactors I’ve seen reacting to this song that gets the fact that everyone has two sides to themselves.

You held it together very well, as usual lol

I’ve followed this song from its original video through many many reaction videos. It’s my absolute favorite right now and I love to see others reaction to it. Yours is by far one of my absolute favorite reactions. Thank you for effort into this video. You earned a like and a sub 👍🏼 wish you all the best!

My favorite part of the Hi Ren song is how he brings me as the listener on his journey of improvement as well. At the beginning when he does the "hoo hoo" singing, even as an older man, I have a quiet, immature part of me that thinks "how odd" or "strange" but by the end when he does it again that feeling is gone because of his message and I celebrate the hoo sounds with him as a victory. Wonderful

Fairy Voice Mother. Thank you so much for such a beautiful reaction to one of the powerful tunes ever produced. Ren is an absolute genius, even with his life of mental and physical torture that he has had to endure. He is such a humble, honest and beautiful human being. As far as I know he will never, put a copyright claim against anyone reviewing his music on RU-vid. If I am wrong, anyone please feel to correct me politely. Much ❤ to you!

This is a masterpiece of theatre. Amazing and brilliant

HI Beautiful Lady my wish is to sing and to judge yourself ...I know that you sing very very well....Kiss from PARIS and Thanks for your comments. and your smiles .
