The welsh at the beginning translates to..Illness is my teacher,It broke my smile,My bones feel old,Here lies the body of Ren,Thanks Cliff ❤❤
I'm pretty sure eskin is skin not bones
‘Esgyrn’ means bones. Skin is ‘croen’. ❤🏴
@@Mezzystar1 ye I have no idea why my mind was confused over that one. I have literally grown up thinking esgyrn was skin lol glad I know now
REN is simply mind blowing… the more I listen to his songs,the more depth I find in every song, word choice, music… his intelligence, emotion and story shines through in his entire compositions. The sick boi is true sick!
My heart hurts knowing the extreme pain that Ren went through. He is in a better place in health and will continue. His art is definitely like no other.
Also I like how the album progressed. It started with his real struggle but as the album goes, it lightens.
He made his own layered vocals in the opening Welsh passage sound like a traditional Welsh male choir. Goosebumps! Plus, sonofabitch made the Welsh rhyme! Genius!
The deep rest / depressed word play is genius. ❤ I'm not quite halfway through the reaction, but had to pause to say that. It really resonated, because I've felt like my bed was a tomb where I could never get deep rest, but I couldn't climb out of it because I was so exhausted...it hurts just remembering. And I wasn't plagued with Lyme. My mind really was making me sick. Glad Ren was able to climb out of that bed, and so was I.
This is one of my favourites musically but I say that after almost every track plays. He didn't "fill" the album with throw aways. They're all gold. In an interview he said he wrote a lot of songs that he hasn't performed. (he said probably a thousand). I can't even imagine the gems that have been buried and may never be heard.
Love your reactions Cliff! “Uninvited” and “Loco” are a must on this LP!! Love you Cliff!!!!
Some of Ren's genius is squeezing so much content into his lyrics, that one listen is never enough to know what's going on. Even after a hundred listens I still find new interpretations and meanings. Absolute genius. Loved your reaction - i could see your mind being blown by how epic this track is!!
This one takes me to a different dimension with each listen - sets the foundation for the entire album 🔥
The "envy, when one man's win is another man's frenzy" just sounds so poetic to me. I mean, it all sounds poetic but that stands out in particular 😊💜
Asking which songs you have to check out? It’s Ren. So all of them 😂 And Renegades have different favourites.
This one is definitely brilliant though. Ren is such a clever man. Most of the songs on the album were written over the years before going to Canada and with the single releases leading up to the album release it became increasingly noticeable how he makes these internal references between songs across the album. By Lost All Faith it really felt like a RENiverse tapestry and I couldn’t wait to see how the entire album would work together as a whole. And then it starts out with this track that he wrote after blowing up while in Canada and it is just the perfect introduction to the album. So many little hints of what’s to come in the rest of the songs on the album while it’s still a completely separate and different song. The way this man’s brain pieces it all together is just incredible.
Aside from Hi Ren, Sick Boy 1 & 2, this song is literally a map of Ren's experience with his illness! It is powerful, honest, masterfully crafted and produced and the music/singing/rapping accompanying is top notch! Love it and love your reaction ❤
You are completely right. Noone sounds like Ren. He is the most profound and interesting musician I ’ve heard in decades
As for what songs to react to, you can’t go wrong. Some are sad, some are angry, some are cheeky and funny. One thing connect them all. They are all beyond great.
This is in my top 3 tracks on the album. I've been waiting for your reaction with great anticipation! Thanks for all you do! You are so appreciated! 🥰
Great reaction, this one is mind blowing, isn't it Cliff? IMHO the best song on the whole album - and I thought Lost All Faith will be unbeatable... always expect the unexpected with Ren.
I'm torn between this song, Lost All Faith, and MG3. I just can't decide which is my favorite. Guess that's a good problem to have though
@@mikedatiger7706 I agree with all three. And it's definitely a good problem to have 😂
Loco is a MUST - That track showcase's this guys master talent. Thanks for spreading the word of this creative genius.
The anguish in the delivery of “horses don’t even have opposable thumbs” sends me 😂😂😂
@@LeeannG Every. Single. Time. 😂
The part you were having trouble hearing was Uruk Hai, referring to the Orcs from Lord of the Rings that wanted to purge Middle Earth.
Love your reactions. Keep fighting and supporting others, brother.
What an amazing unique human being we have amongst us! I saw earlier he has started really intense treatment beginning today and will have a low profile for a while, so like many sending him love and healing! Lovely reaction Cliff.
Love your reactions, Cliff!!! So happy they've not completely gotten to you, stay strong! 💚 You can't go wrong with ANY choice of tracks on this album. Wicked Ways is really great, but all are 🔥. Big love, man 💚
My favorite off this album! 💜💜💜
I am so glad that some people have an outlet for such excruciating true pain. It helps me loads most of the time. Sometimes I just wallow in it, though.
keep going buddy love the reactions! my favourite bar is the for-ren-sic
Darker than Uruk Hai. They were the most evil of the orcs in Tolkien's Lord of the Rings.
Love your reactions cliff don't let the bastards grind you down we love you 😊😊
They are all great in their own way but I would like to hear Uninvited 🙏🏽✌🏽
I'm a Ren fan boy (old man). Simply loving your reactions & thank you for opening my ears to music that I don't usually listen to! Thanks man. Peace.
This is my favorite Ren song now, and I got the album because I loved so many songs. I resonate with him and his struggles with death, health and pain. I'm so glad his struggles have made him such a beautiful person. It can so easily go the other way.
Genesis is great, another favorite tho is Lost all faith❤
Finally! On it immediately. Also reporting that YT is notifying me about you all right.
I have been really enjoying this album!
I don't remember who noticed it, but in one of his songs I know he mentioned a bible passage which if you looked up said that the person in the bible had hot coals pressed to their face... so in their opinion, they felt his pain level was close to if not even with being pressed by hot coals. And you're not wrong, there's no one sounding like Ren. He's breaking the mold. I hate that you're fighting the Tubes of You, I look forward to your reactions! Keep fighting the good fight. We (reactor addiction humans) need & respect you!
The Tubes of You - that’s class - love it ❤
If you say it out right they fight you.... I'm just creative I guess lol
@@Silkytoaster
Love this song,Love you too Cliff stay strong 💪
This is a great track. Listen to zachsang interview with Ren. He gives a lot more detail of his life. Heart wrenching the pain he went through
Hey Cliff! Love ya, man, and keep doing what your doin
Great reaction, and much love to Ren, thank you for this reaction, so beautifully portraying the whole message, thank you 🙏🦉❤️🐊👍
Thanks for your reaction. I love this song and even more because he did this when he was so terribly sick. My favorite followed by Uninvited and lastly, all of them.
I can imagine some what, he went through pain wise I have fibromyalgia and its a chronic pain illness and when you do get so tires and week and in that much pain you really do feel like your dying slowly. I would suggest doing songs in order on album
The tYoube is sending me here again (been a minute. I've had to look you up for a couple weeks). Great reaction. I was in awe when I finished listening to Seven Sins the first time. An embarrassing number of listens later, and it wows me even more, because I grasp the nuances that we often miss on the first few listens.
The entire verse about prophets getting dropped for imagining heaven is such an intricate body of art in and of itself that it just blows me away. The man is a true poet, but more than that, this song sets up the theme that runs through the whole album and even hearkens back to the themes in Hi Ren.
This right here:
Let it be, let it be; quote John Lennon.
Click-clack, John got shot for attention.
What does that tell you bout the good of intentions?
Bitterness formed by a storm of aggression,
Prophets get dropped Imagining Heaven:
Martin Luther Mahatma--deadened.
Six, six, followed by six and seven:
Build em, praise em, bury em, dead em.
I was born to be half a man with half a chance.
My heart is in half: half righteous, half is damned...
Brilliant. John Lennon Imagined Heaven (so did Jesus, in a more literal interpretation) Martin Luther had a dream of a better world, Mahatma Ghandi was an extreme pacifist (even if a bit of a cad)...all killed after being built up and praised.
BUT
The order of: Build em, praise em, bury em, dead em...is purposeful. Buried before they were dead, hearkens to "Sick Boi... tell me how it feels to be buried while you breathe," and this ties into his monolog on Hi Ren, "I shouted out into an empty room that I would defeat the forces of evil, and for the next 10 years, I suffered the consequences (as I see it right now, evil is the system of hierarchy where all Seven Sins cause us all to destroy each other and the earth by being slaves to a system that values profit over people)...but as soon as he decided to go up against evil, he was stricken by his illness ("hard to make a stand when you're crawling on your knees") which ties into the beginning of the track where he says, "there I lay, feeble and thin, Sick Boi, Sick Boi, seven, my sins," which alludes to the fact that his sickness is related to the "Seven whole sins for a self-made Armageddon," bringing us to "Jesus died at 33 and still, my sins are lurking." That's reinforced by, "I was born to be half a man with half a chance; my heart is in half: half, righteous, half is damned." (throw right back to the theme of duality in Hi Ren, in which "the more intensely the light shone, the darker the shadow it casts"...) This entire verse encapsulates his internal struggle, feeling that his illness is a consequnce of his determination to fight against an evil system that forces us to take part in the Seven Deadly Sins: "one sin for every one day of the week." Becuase often, "we (as a society) exhile the shepherds and follow the sheep" and "prophets get dropped imagining heaven. Heaven would be the utopia he speaks of in MG3 that we could build if only individuals were taught to use their brains instead of teaching them to "be sheep who put themselves before the herd if there's more money for me." These are the sheep we follow after we exile the shepherds who imagine heaven, or utopia or a better way, like Jesus, Lennon, Martin Luther, Mahatma Ghandi...Ren.
Keep on keeping on, Cliff! This one from a production standpoint was very interesting!
The lyrics and production on this create an epic narrative. Wow.
I feel like he bends the music to follow his words. Then using his own voice as a instrument to enhance it going full circle.
Great reaction, as always Cliff. This song is a masterpiece and Ren is for sure a one of a kind, no one sounds like him and he keeps elevating the bar like you said.
I believe this was the song he wrote last on the album because he said in one of his streams it was meant to just be an intro but then grew into this entire song. Love it!
Rens creativity knows no bounds it seems, only his treatment and sickness does sometimes get in his way.
I feel truly blessed to be alive at the same time as this man and being able to experiance the art he creates ❤
Stay strong Cliff, you are a fighter and we are all on your side, so please do not feel like you are alone in this.
Tell us where and we will follow you there.
Your fans are here for you the same way you are always here for us ❤
A lot of REN’s songs seem like they should be in the movies. This is one of my top 3. Love this song.
Was listening to BBC R3, a classical music station this afternoon. It occurred to me the vast range of genres that Ren draws on. What other rapper has a cello as a main instrument on a track.
Love your reactions - you get art.
I have the same reaction listening to this song - no words. Pure awe at his mastery of his craft. My favourite song on the album - a masters
Hi Cliff, you definitely need to listen to ‘Castles made of Sand’, although it’s only available on the deluxe digital download of the album.
That and ‘Seven Sins’ are hands down my favourite tracks on the album. Enjoy!!
Good to have you back, man. Keep up the good work, and keep spreading the message.
"There's nobody that sounds like Ren" That pretty much sums it up!
Looking forward to this, and your pukka reaction 😊
I know you'll eventually do all of them. The track that is so different is "uninvited"
Great song. Don't think you have done Uninvited, Loco, Wicked Ways or Sick Boi Part 2
❤ #Ren ❤
Uninvited is a cheeky fun one! Much love Cliff 🖤
Masterpiece.... one of the best Albums in decades❤❤❤❤❤❤❤.
Cliff Wicked Ways to me imho is the best song on the album. Loved the reaction stay strong we got you ❤❤❤
I'm here for algorithm 😊 thanks for your reactions ❤
You should check out loco that is a very creative song by ren and would be a good listen
Great reaction as always. This & uninvited my new favs, if there is such a thing with Ren. I think in his Knox interview post album he said this was in his top 5 ❤❤❤❤
The 'forensic' - For Ren's Sick - line hits me every time. Genius! :)
Thanks for the breakdown...stay strong brother!
Watch the Zach Sang Show interview of REN. He talks about this song and explains it abit, as well as his creative process.
hello, dear. stand tough with the tech overlords-those butt heads!! i have been stretching out this album, to make it last longer. so when i saw you had this reaction, i was all in. you are a lovely man!!! i'm here for your reactions. kathleen
There isn’t a weak track so whichever you do next is good for me. Just commenting for the algorithm whilst I stick pins in my utube voodoo doll 😉
All are worth listening to... I've had this album on shuffle/repeat since it came out lmao
This is my fav track on the album. Him telling his struggles in such a vulnerable and raw way, all the switches and bars and the religious subcontext is AMAZING
I love Wicked Ways and Sic Boi 2 Both very different and 🔥🔥🔥
I recently went to the earliest beginnings and listen to him in Trick the Fox and he was doing cover for someone. He was quite young and fabulous.
I have been waiting for you to get round to this song , Great reaction Cliff you defo need to do Uninvited , wicked ways loco and sick boi 2 .
Wicked ways next my friend!
Dude, Seven Sins is now one of my top 5 Ren songs, however, Wicked Ways is also so, so 🔥
Jump on Wicked ways, everything about that track is absolute 🔥 as always great reaction ✊🏻
I've been waiting for you to jump on these tracks. You HAVE to do Wicked Ways.
Love this song. Glad to see you still here Cliff 💪
This track is the opening track of the album and the last one to be written…….the strings at the opening are so haunting but love how the sounds switch. I love this track but also love how each time you listen you get something new from it. Love your reactions Cliff 🔥
You should know we want you to check out at the songs you haven't heard yet. 😂 It's Ren. We know your going to love it. Great reaction for a great song
Hi Cliff, always keepn it real, promoting, encouraging and understanding. Ren is Ren, his songs/music is inspiring. I like how hes able to pocket those crucial moments to capture the audience.2024 will be interesting...Peace☝️👍🤓
I love your Ren reactions Cliff. Looking forward to your ‘interview’ with Ren ✌️ and ❤ from 🇬🇧
My current fave...ty for continuing to fight for these artists... great content as always ❤
Sending love to you. Thank you for your work, it's meant a lot to me.❤
Love your reactions ! Big fan of Ren. ❤ from Belgium
What You Want has that 90s Beastie Boys feel I love that one
You have been a positive person on this space, f the system.. you do you as long as they allow it cause you keep a positive outlook on all things. You have helped a lot of people and your constant support should make them re think their action. We need more people like you on this platform.. so thank you
Ren did an interview on the Zach Sang Show last week . His best interview to date . He opens up honestly and in heartbreaking detail what he went thru and how the songs in Sick Boi inform that journey . Anyone who loves Ren or on the flip side does not understand Ren needs to watch that interview .
Oh my God it is a masterpiece
All songs from the album are fire! I'm still waiting for Uninvited. Can't wait for your reaction!
It such an amazing song even if it is a hard listen. Definitely one of the best on the album.
You definitely need to check out Uninvited, Loco and Sick Boi Pt 2
Just about to watch, I know you'll love this cliff
Not sure if you caught the reference but he also called out tears of heaven from eric clapton. That could be a double or even a triple reference. Him crying the tears to heaven, the reference to the song itself and on top of that eric clapton wrote that song cause his son died by his hands like joe. 😢
For Ren Sic 🔥
Hope you're channel growing like you deserve
Love this reaction cliff
This song has been in heavy HEAVY rotation since I hit play on the album on the 13th. Easily my fav song on the entire album and firmly planted as my 2nd fav ren song period, behind only Hi Ren. I can't believe it's the lead track.
Jaw dropping! Is it not?!
Thanks for the reaction.
Thanks, Cliff. Love your reviews.
Brilliant reaction 👏 ❤❤
Morning Cliff! I just got an email saying my CDs were shipped!! I couldn't be more excited!! My favorite song is Castles made of sand, but unfortunately, it didn't make it to the album! But u should definitely react to that 1 too!
This is one of my favorites. Try uninvited! It's fun
My husband is going through a similar experience - different autoimmune disorder and the only standard treatments have failed.
He loves Ren but finds the pain songs difficult some days - too close to home and all that.
Chronic pain is a leech that will suck away your will, your personality, your life. Mine refuses opiates so has to make do with ibuprofen and cannabis. As a carer I want to give up so often - listening to your person in constant pain is it’s own torture. Then I think if he can live through it, I can bear witness.
Ren’s music has saved my sanity more times than I can count. He represents hope and damn I needed it desperately.
Loco and Wicked Ways are a must
❤.... top notch
i think what hes talking about with the God jumping from the edge part is that his faith started to die.. whilst stuck in his bed, completely helpless. Love you work Cliff.. for songs to check out "Wicked Ways" is completely fireeee
absolutely do Wicked Ways...I've heard most of his catalog and Wicked Ways blows me away!
Thanks for still showing up for Ren guy/ even tho it’s all drama for you right now ❤
Btw, I LUV this song!!!
