- In this video, I react for the first time to the Welsh singer Ren and English singer Chinchilla performing “Chalk Outlines”. I analyze their amazing performance, explain and demonstrate their vocal techniques and I'll tell you what I think made it so great. This is an amazing tune and I am so glad I finally reacted to it!

How To Be Me (live) is also an absolutely astonishing piece by these two.
I agree. This song gets me ❤
The control and timing in How to be Me (live) is exceptional.
I have just listened to the live version for the first time, and it is amazing, even better than the studio version in my opinion! Raw emotion and impressive singing
Agreed. I can't recommend that video enough. The vocals, the energy, the emotion....absolutely stunning.
This one is amazing!!! They all are tbh 🤣
The chair opening that you skipped was the symbolism you were looking for.
The phobia of being okay is called chairaphobia
Can't believe she skipped that part :(
"In the gallows, balanced on my toes so I can breathe" hit me like a gut punch the first time and still gets me.
That's the line that gets me every time too!!
That phrase "I'm scared of being okay" really hits me as well.
I've felt that way most of my life.
yeah, the higher you get the harder you can fall, and when you have hit the ground a few times it becomes more tempting to just stay down
When depression becomes normal, being ok is terrifying. You know it's not going to last long, and you can't enjoy it because of that anxiety. "When and how will this end?" Yeah, it's rough.
I'm torn between "I'm scared of being okay, 'cause all things change," and the line "In the gallows, balanced on my toes so I can breathe." Both of those hit me like a sack of bricks.
@@brattneyrose5652 And don't forget, "I'm still here in this bed that I crawled in... I hope that I'm someone else in the morning."
So many powerful lyrics that I think anyone can relate to. A song everyone should know and hear.
I'm a 67 year old grandpa that grew up on Led Zeppelin & Black Sabbath. I am hooked on Ren and different reactions. Yours is one I always watch over and over.
Thank you, Lolli ❤
At 51 I was just diagnosed with multiple sclerosis. I was told I've probably had it most of my adult life. I've struggled mentally for as long as I can remember. Depression, anxiety, cog fog, attention issues, blah blah. To now learn that most if not all of it could have just been chewed up wiring... who am I really? Who could I have been. It's got me really f-ed up. F-ed enough that I finally went into thrapy. Life really be life-ing on us sometimes! ❤
❤🩹
Just wanted to say that, as someone who has struggled with severe anxiety and depression, the part where you pointed out that it’s really difficult “because it’s a fear of yourself” hit me as hard as the song did. I’ve never heard it simplified that way before and my god, that resonates. Thank you for that. Seriously.
Can't believe you haven't done Chinchilla's Fingers Live yet. Her vocal talent on it is astounding.
She did react to Fingers, together with Chinchilla!
These two together are the ultimate duo IMO, my favourite track on the past 10 years, closely followed by them doing " How to Be Me " and then very close indeed, " One Dance/Drunk in Love " Great reaction
One of the great truths in life is that Ren is *always* so much better than you remembered.
Even when what you remember was that the last thing you heard from him was life-changing.
"Scared of being OK, cause all things change" - for me, I'm scared of being OK because if I were ever to get better and then get worse again... this time, I know how bad it gets, and also, how many people you lose, and also, how much work (and how long it can take) to recover even just to the point I've fought for today (which is FAR from OK).
And since I've been on Disability for 19.5 years, if I ever got better to the point of being "OK," I don't think I could ever fully *trust* that I wouldn't crash again.
I got an extra layer of emotional watching you watch this just because I know you had that voice-focused conversation with Chinchilla and felt that vocalist kinship strongly with her. I can't imagine we'll ever see another reactor react to Chalk Outlines only *after* having an in-depth conversation like that with her. Unique.
I don’t believe they understand how special they are together. Because so good on their own. But Ren might be one of the biggest savant musicians I have ever heard. There is no denying she brings something even more special out of him. She has a voice that is just unreal. It pushes him!! Love them both. But boy together it’s unreal Area 51 type good.
This song was my first introduction to Chinchilla and she is leveling up so much from video to video that I see of hers it's just amazing. Your twitch streams seem very enjoyable! Time to check them out :)
Ren said, Daisy was like a sister to him, simpatico. You our dear one are always amazing, how you truly let the music run through you, as it should. Everything we are is attributable to sound vibrations and you have good vibes. Cheers, Doc
Your reaction was so moving. This song already gives me chills, but watching your reaction kept my skin rippling with goosebumps.
Im so glad i discovered Chinchilla through Ren's music. She has an amazing voice.
Im not a singer, but ive been an orchestral musician. This blend of sounds and mood together..... amazingly beautiful.
These two are precious. Individuals who have dealt with debilitating issues and stood at death's door know they can become chalk outlines at any moment. A sense of normality or "being okay" are scary feelings. Powerful performance.
I honestly had forgotten that you haven't yet done their duets. I think I had just assumed that you listened to them on your own and therefore weren't going to "react" to them. They were SOOOOO hot in the reaction community that it was hard to imagine you just not having gotten to them. That's not a judgement, just an observation.
This song gets me every time. I myself have never been on psychotropics for depression or anxiety, etc. But someone very very near and dear to me was for many years. And whenever she would take them I could almost watch her disappear before my eyes, like a slow leak from an inflatable pool toy, and there would just be this empty person in her stead that kinda sorta resembled her. I've probably heard this song 200+ times, and still every time I hear Chinchilla chime in with the word "Sertaline" it absolutely destroys me. "The feeling goes, and you draw a chalk outline"...wheeeeww. Those words are like a baseball bat across the head. IDK what is going on with our society, where such a large number of us need to be on these life long subscriptions to mood altering drugs. IDK if it's the water, the air, or the fake food we eat...our lifestyles, or what. I don't want to say it's a scam for the pharmaceuticals to collect a tax from us, but I'd be lying if I said if didn't feel like it sometimes. Whatever it is we absolutely MUST get to the bottom of it. We are systematically homogenizing our young people right out of what makes them unique and special, and it's absolutely tragic. This is not to say that they are not appropriate for some people. or even most of the people that are on them. I am not qualified to say. But if so, the fact that we've made a world where this course of action is in any way appropriate for so many, is a damning indictment on our society as a whole.
Please, please, please... I beg of you to do their live duet of "How to Be Me". Name your price...I'll donor it right now. Aside from the fact that I think Ren's message on mental health is a modern equivalent to Orwell's in the past, this particular performance is absolutely gorgeous. And I would imagine someone of your singing expertise would have a field day with it.
The word in your reaction that got me was "homogenizing" our children. That was so comprehensive, so succinct.
How to be me, live, please? Those two together, just magic ...
This is one of my fave Ren songs. It's so sad and lovely They are a power duo, 100%. I]m very familiar and comfortable with my dark side and I really get the line, "I'm scared of being okay, cause all things change." I wouldn't be myself without it, right? The struggle is as important, if not more important than the good times.
I just found my three favorites in one video. Ren, Chinchilla and Fairy Voice Mother. I'm commenting even before i watch, yay
They're so good together, you can see why they say they are musical siblings!
Such an incredible performance, these two are so great together. Also people should check out her analysis of Fingers with Chinchilla on the main channel, since I think a lot of people missed it.
Ahhhhh, I never get to hang out on your live streams because they're always around the time my kid gets put to bed, so this is wonderful...!
Please react to The Tale of Jenny and Screech FULL version. It is truly Shakespearean in all ways. A masterpiece that will break you. In 60 years I don't think I've ever heard anything g like it
"it's a fear of yourself.. and it's a fear of your natural state.. of being. Which is a really horrible thing to experience." YAS this.. This is what I always get from this piece, is an understanding that there are other people who experience this and feel this way. Thank you.
Rens vibrato is so good, its so unique to him. Im sure others do it as well, but you know for sure if ren is singing hes using that vibrato 😊💜
Oh cool, you have special 2nd channel! I’m in!! Plus you simply HAVE to check out these two doing ‘How to be Me (Live)’. Possibly probably my favourite Ren song and they just kill it.
You are the first reactor that has mentioned the slight tempo shift. That little beat is so damn powerful.
Fantastic insight. I’d rather the real - kids banging all weekend, posting feel down on Monday 😂- of course you do.
Love their art. Good luck with yours.
I loved your reaction! So natural and honest! The little grimaces and groans illuminate the sections and techniques that impress you and following on I'm able to graphically see for myself those instances. If that makes sense. Anyhow, you help me understand more thoroughly what exactly is so special about Ren and in this case Chinchilla. Thank you.
Great reaction and comments, Lolli! I love the way their voices sound together.
I know it's a bit late because you put this out awhile ago but this deserves another thumbs up. 👍🏼
I was today years old when I found out there's a MORE FAIRY VOICE MOTHER channel.
Excuse me, while I go on a spree, since I've got so many videos left to catch up on this channel :P
Great reaction as always, Lolli!
How to be Me. Great analysis at the end about being scared of your natural state. It took decades of drugs and drink, now therapy to feel comfortable in natural state of being. Good stuff.
The high-octane energy of ttheir music is perfect for getting pumped up.
and just now October Ends dropped a banger 🔥 You gotta react to it!
"It's important to have enough vocal colours so as to paint a picture of what you're feeling inside" - what a beautiful way of describing it 🎨
This is an alltime Ren favourite of mine and perfect for vocal coaches to feast their ears on, so glad you finally did it, enjoyed watching your eargasms! Can't wait for you to react to How to be Me.. Meanwhile have shared this to my RENactions! FB group where we share our favourite Ren ( & friends ) reactions. Reactors also welcome to the group to plug their Ren related content
When Chinchilla hits those Oh my mys at the end i get chills every time.
We listen to music the same way! You flinching and making random noises because it is flowing thru ur body in an insane way that cant be contained. Love to see it
Glad you did this one, it's my favorite Ren song. It's soo beautiful and relatable.
I've been labouring under the impression that I was subscribed to you. I've done it again.
This will be fun. I love your work, beautiful xx
You didn't disappoint. I'm made up to see you enjoy this so much.
Your Chinchilla chat was a wicked post too love.
Thanks
I'm so glad you came back to Ren! In another reaction you said something that made me immediately think "oh she's gonna love How To Be Me!", so please check out the live version - I promise you'll love it!
Great reaction. You need to react to Ren & Chinchilla busking. Sexual healing. Ren laughs out loud into the mic. 🎤 because Chinchilla belting is so damn good he had to react to it. Best Ren & Chinchilla moment ever. IMO
Ohh, I feel like I've been waiting so long for you to react to this! Love it.
“Chinchilla’s arguably more special…” [when speaking of beyonce and xtina] - facts! Thank you for saying this out loud 😁❤ Love your channels so much, Lolli 🫶
I'm not knocking CA or B. Good voices. Fun and catchy music. But so polished and produced. Not a lot of humanity left. I much prefer Chinchilla's rawness!! 🔥
@@dougel4709 Yaas, exactly! 🙌
It was beautiful and real to see the song hit you. You went from talking about the song to talking about your real you. Then you brought them all together.
That's why I watch reactions. To be able to experience it for the first time again. Love you.
Purely as words on a page this song is incredibly stirring, but the beautiful writing is wholly and completely done justice in this performance. As I commented on the original video what seems like forever ago, it is a perfect balance of raw emotion and fragility mixed with impeccable swings of expression and restraint. Really a masterful song and performance.
Amazing reaction and understanding of the whole sound design.
love the reaction hugs all around love it when vocal pros chat about Ren and his crew! cant wait for How to be me live by ren x chinchilla and Humble by Ren and eden nash then one of my fav that most ppl dont do Blind eyed by Ren and Sam Tompkins ( must be the Mc sessions verison its unreal) anyways thanks for the reaction and p.s love the glasses
That was tremendous. Thank you for your perspective.
One of the rare times I’ll recommend you listen to the MP3 version for a more nuanced sound; specifically for a half second of audio lol
When Chinchilla transports into “Don’t cry ‘cause there’s a pill for everything.” That is unequaled music!
I loved your reaction to this epic performance. Thanks. Rob.
Aren’t they so amazing’n they should be mega stars!!
Yay! I've been waiting for you to do this one! Also, love these type reactions from you.4:47 Adorable!
👏👏👏 loved this reaction. Thanks
Wow lady that was an amazing reaction 🤯🤯.. You broke it down perfectly ( you really picked up everything ),even describing his vocals with your knowledge i learnt how your muscles in your throat worked watching your video... I'm 53yrs of age and never knew that 🤯🤯🤯 ❤ for this thank you 😘👌✌✌️
Lovely reaction, thank you!
They are phenomenal together. I hope they will do more songs together.
Oh my!!! I am so excited!! I LOVE Ren and I also LOVE Chinchilla. This song is wonderful. Oh and I LOVE you and your awesome videos so this will be so much fun ❤❤❤❤❤
I have been waiting so long for you to do this song and you did not disappoint
Thank you great reaction.
Any time these two are together it's just pure magic. The storytelling is just mindblowing.
What a lovely reaction to this song, thank you :)
This is fantastic. Thanks FVM Much Love and Happy Holidays❤❤❤
the way you describe the way those two sing and how they emulate the song. so spot on. emotions and range. damn!
Thanks a bunch❤ money game 3 is amazing too. (And of course 'how to be me' if u want more chinchilla)... OK ok 'for joe' and him and sam busking.... ahhhh heck just react to all of Ren 😂
They are amazing❤❤...thanks appreciate you.
You're the best! We so enjoy your reviews
I so love your reactions i am VERY sensitive but use stoicism to control my emotions instead of drugs or alchohol... BUT when i watch your videos i can feel with you and release some pressure! TY!
Great reaction! Thanks for sharing your insight and knowledge.
Lovely insight, thank you 🙏🦉❤️🐊👍
loved it a ton. insane level of quality. so glad I came across ttheir video. 😵
What a beautiful song and lovely reaction. Thanks for sharing your VERY relatable experience too!
What a lovely appraisal of that song, thanks for that
Absolutely love your reaction thank you. This would be one of my fave all time pieces if it weren’t for a song called “How to be me” which is even freakin better if that’s possible.actually it’s a cpl of levels better imho. It’s by Ren and Chinchilla. Do you know them? If you do check it out make sure once again you get the live version bc it’s basically the best thing ever. Thank you!❤❤❤
Love you Lolli. You're amazing. First time hearing this song...
Very powerful.
Great analysis! This was my first time viewing your channel, and I appreciate your insight! This song never fails to give me shivers and brain tingles.
Such a great reaction thank you 🙏
Goose bumps all over the place!!! 🖤
Nice reaction, and I totally get it as well!
You provided such a worthwhile discussion. Much appreciated. These two artists are a force and I am looking forward to more from each of them.
absolutly love your reaction ❤ - as always it is your musical expertice combined with the emotion and deep understanding of a precious human beeing that gets me and which always teaches me sth unexpected (sorry, for my English but I hope it does make some sense)
How to be me live takes them both to another level
Brilliant and honest analysis both of technique, musicality and of meaning.
This was an amazing collab between two unique and skilled artists, and thanks for your perspective and commentary.
This is so good!
Thank you. I've been on and off for a while and not really sure if this looks like a second stream you set up. Either way always glad to see you love your perspective on everything. But I also needed a reboot with Ren. .... He is really what I discovered that drew me into all the reaction videos as well and somewhere.... Unfortunately my only figuring out what happened was it as he got better and was doing more wonderful things some of them were just simply not in my realm and I didn't automatically love them as much as everybody else did. So I kind of wondered off into other areas. I can see unfortunately a lot of the people that probably started out with friends on the giant bandwagon have difficulty switching gears sometimes that were so unlike some of his original work. I need to focus back in and go back and see what he's doing. But .. how to be me is amazing it has to be the live version with them sitting on the stools on the top of the building. Be sure to get the right one :)
Lolli you are such a voice nerd and I like you that for!
It's a lovely interpretation of a lovely song. I often wonder to myself why sadness can be so beautiful sometimes. Melancholy, saudade, etc... It's that sort of soft sadness vibe I get from this song despite the theme being drugs and depression. It's like god saying "don't worry young one, you'll never be truely sad, have some pretty".
My first time I enjoyed the performance great video.
I think you would enjoy watching this.
Ren & Sam Tompkins - Earned it /Mans World / Falling
Its them playing live on a street.
You get to hear Ren do more singing, and showing his musical side live with no production to add to it.
And Sam also has an insane voice. Its a different side to what most have gotten to know Ren for.
Search this for the video : Ren & Sam Tompkins - Earned it /Mans World / Falling
thank you thank you thank you Lovely Lolli. Love and biiiig 2nd channel hugs ❤😁
Loved your reaction, don't wait so long to do another Ren piece. Try Genesis or what you want if you want old school beastie boys.
The vocals are insane
Legendary performance, awesome reaction.
One could tell me that ren and/or chinchilla was devoid of talent, technique and musicianship and I would still say they are the best thing to happen to music in the past 20 years.
Chinchilla is on the voice UK show at the moment check out her audition 🔥🔥🔥🔥
As I am suffering myself from double depression, depersonalization, anxiety disorder and a chronical pain disorder (e.g. 20+ days with headaches / month) for decades by now I feel so connected to Ren and this masterful pieces of art he created and gave us. Also my "creative I" can understand his struggles and thoughts so well. The lines you mentioned regarding the fear of yourself and state hit me as well every time I hear them: They are so familiar!
they just made new music together this weekend! hope it'll come out soon!
This version is superior to the studio version.
Far superior. I really wish he’d put this one out on iTunes.
doesnt it appear on Chinchillas itunes?@@brandymoran9646
I think both versions have there place. But I really do like the way they shoot for something different on the live ones.
Oh god yes. I rushed out to find it on Spotify and haven't touched that version since that one play.
Not only are Daisy and Ren excellent singers, they are also amazing song writers.
I forgot that you fell off the Ren train a while ago (or at least parked it in a siding 😂). There's so much in his catalogue and recent album I'd love to see you react to. Hope you'll get that train 🚂🚃🚃 moving again. He's the artist of the year for me, no doubt.
