Awesome live band

I’ve watched what must be hundreds of reactions to this hoping to find someone who experienced it the way I did. And although you don’t show a lot of emotion, your analysis of it and reaction were exactly what I was looking for. Reaction videos are strange, I think we watch them because we want to see ourselves in someone else, the irony behind the medium is wild. Anyways, thank you for your video friend

Great reaction! I’m late to the Ren party but to say I’ve been obsessed would be an understatement. I think his music is important.

This is amazing, it’s simultaneously fresh and familiar. Like artistry of a bygone era that was just unearthed. I feel lucky to hear it.

Wow, my reaction to your reaction echoed peoples normal reaction to Hi Ren. 1. who is this guy? 2. oh wow 3. oh WOW 4. speechless 5. ok, im a fan *subscribed*

Take care of our COAL MINERS............NOT the MINORS in an island somewhere!!!! That is what he meant!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Getting pretty emotional about your reaction for some reason.

The island thing? They don’t think we know, but I know that you do

Great reaction - and I've watched several reactions to this piece.

1:32 Maybe this will be a bit of a humorous video! 😂🤣😂🤣

I'm missing your videos, I hope you are well.

I’ve been to and worked security for a ton of concerts over my 52 years and I do believe their concert was the absolute best live performance I’ve ever seen, it is an unbelievable experience

Brother, i loved your analysis of this epic song. Ren is on another level. Thanks bud.

Appreciate your insight, perfectly said!

Well, your first mistake was collecting your lawn clippings in a bag instead of mulching them into the lawn. Having kids, and loving them well is never a mistake.

God is on the inside. You have already met. Your intuition and wisdom are shared.

To answer one of your questions, they are amazing LIVE! Saw them in Montreal and they blew the roof off the Bell Centre!!! Super talented kids! ❤

Thomas Jefferson said any government big enough to give you what you want is big enough to take everything you have

Wow! Still has the ability to build and wreck me at the same time.

But it is

Im 66 and only stumbled across REN recently, time ago i put a noose round my neck but hope came through. This performance made me cry and still can. The guys a genius all his stuff is unique and powerful . Nice review

You didn’t miss a thing and your emotional response was entirely appropriate and a testimony both to your and Ren’s humanity. Thank you for your gentle intelligence. The world of reaction videos needs a lot more voices like yours.

By far the most insightful reaction to this I have seen. Great job, you got my sub. 💖

I have watched 100s of reactors listen to Chalk Outlines. You are the first person to speak so well about the feeling of anxiety for change…. Taking antidepressants just incase. That is how I feel right now… however, discovering Ren has made me realise that I’m not the only one with those feelings. I’m 49, but my body feels 80! Rens words have made my mind breathe 🙏♥️🙏

Can they perform live? You better believe it!!! 🙏♥️🙏

Extremely well thought out response to each of the Tales 🙏♥️🙏

Grievance while voting against your own interests and demonizing others is FAR from anything breakthrough. This is also not “living in the new world “. He’s done nothing to make it better. This is a 1980’s racist trope.

I don’t agree with the role you assigned to Ren. I don’t think the elite would give us eyes to see. But i enjoyed your reaction.

Love Ren. Such a clever boy. Enjoyed your review.

Whaaaat ? 😂😂😂😂 Thanks for the reaction

Just discovered your channel and subscribed---your reaction was exactly like mine,and at 65 it's so refreshing to hear something new and fresh.They do hearken back to some sounds from my youth buy with a theatrical twist.Theyre so talented they don't need gimmicks but the way they present themselves is great fun.Looking forward to more reactions (Must ask:Are you from Canada?I'm in Wisconsin and hear a bit of an accent!)

Young men putting themselves in the ground may refer to how vets give 110%, discharge and somehow decide life isn't worth the sacrifice. I served twice. USMC and US Army so I understand the sacrifice. It's just that I think the USA is still worth it because of people like Anthony Oliver. People who see and tell the truth. Too many politicians don't.

Hi Matt, your breakdowns are always spot on. Just wanted to check in with you as you've been quiet of late.

Listen to their candlelight session if you want to watch a good live song by them. There are three to choose from and they're all fab but Broken Bells is my favorite 😊. I've not seen them live but they are supposed to be amazing in person, many people say even videos of them live doesn't do it justice, i really hope to see them in person myself one day.

Stop sitting on the fence. Pick a side

You act like your not happy. He called the rich people out. Do support the 1 % or the 99%? Pick your side

"They" certainly did diminish him. I live in Oakland, CA and the first I heard of this insanely viral video and incredible piece of music was yesterday. I don't live under a rock. I'm an artist that spends about half of the year working as a plumber, a carpenter, or a mason. Prime audience. I'm 100% connected to the blue collar world and the art world. It's entirely baffling to me that the first that I have ever heard of this through the algorithm was because I was fed it next because I had watched a wonderful couple from New Zealand react to a Fat Electrician video, and they had also reacted to this. This entire phenomenon was shielded from me in the SF bay area youtube algorithm. I'd call that diminished. Look at the date. I could practically have had a newborn by now.

Your analysis is so good! I've just watched all of your Ren videos and will probably watch your other videos. Thank you!

Frankenmuth Michigan just isn't about Christmas and Chicken!

You sir, are good at this! 👍

Hey Matt - Hope all is well. Just wondering how you have been doing? Haven't seen anything from you in awhile. Really related to most if not all of your takes on things. Made me feel as if I wasn't alone. Thanks for all your vids. Holding down things over here on VI island best we can for now. Thanks again for all your work and insights.

Just a super special song!! It feels like something that was always meant to be, since the beginning of time. I love it so much!

Protect these boys at all costs!! Love his voice and the music.

If you read this please listen to Aurora. I’m Scandinavian, just like Aurora. We just love when the terrible are told in a beautiful way. Listen to “ murder song 123”.

It’s not a dance with the devil, it’s the devil recognising a victim

Noooooo screech is calling his girlfriend to get off the street.

Hi is a bard. He’s welsh for goodness sake.

Great band.❤❤❤

insightful thank you.

I hope you are ok, miss your videos.
