    Great reaction guys! I'm going tell you upfront that you will be getting some flack for the version of 'I Shot the Sheriff' you chose. This is the chill one: Sheriff/Zion/Hip Hop goes from Reggae to Ska madness... very fun but I love both for different reasons. Get to the other if you can, but this whole reaction was wonderful! I like it when the less known videos make it in.
    Edit: Yes they have many originals and they are wonderful as well. They also did a Broadcast on Live Nation from home, which is fun. There last concert is also available here on yt in full. Two songs that I'd like to see more of All My Heros and Icarus.

    'I shot the sheriff' that you should have done was played just before War Pigs (the massage before the kick in the teeth). Two more fantastic busking videos from Ren are 'Wade in the Water' and 'It's a Man's World'. Ren is incredible check out Ocean or Humble with Eden Nash (original Ren I think).

    There is no bad Big Push. They are just all the Dopamine. There is no bad stuff, just different shades of awesome. Hopefully they are able to reunite when Ren is done in Canada.
    Other great listens are their covers of Sympathy for the Devil, Paint it Black, and their original songs like Watch Out and All My Heroes.
    Romain Axisa also deserves not to be forgotten. His solo work is very different that what he does with TBP, but he's a virtuoso.

    For originals by the Big Push try the acoustic version of Sweet Little Lady (or the recorded version but I love the acoustic because it’s a one take live through the Brighton Lanes), or All My Heroes. For another busking cover I love Wade in The Water and Feeling Good combo x

    Yes!! The Big Push have original music! I’m being 100% honest when I say that I have not heard a song from them that I don’t love - I can’t believe it!! Sometimes I’m afraid to listen to new music because I’m afraid I won’t like it, so I hesitated a while with The Big Push. That hesitation was stupidity on my part. Together they are absolutely magical!! Ren, Gorran and Romain switch around singing lead vocals, they switch around playing guitar and bass. Their chemistry is unmatched! It’s always a true joy and I’m so grateful for CZcams - otherwise I would have never known of them. I hope they will play together again sometime. Surely. Thanks again for your reactions - please don’t stop with Ren or The Big Push! Treasures and blown minds await, you’ve just scratched the surface!! ❀

  • @lencooke944
    @lencooke944 Pƙed rokem +18

    Well done guys, another two fantastic tracks by Ren and The Big Push
    Last night I started to watch Ren's interview (more of a conversation, really) with Justin Hawkins and in the first 50ish minutes (which is all I have watched so far) three things really stood out to me:
    1. I thought Ren must have had classical guitar training; however, he says he only had two or three formal guitar lessons; the rest he taught himself, or by following CZcams guitar how-to videos if he wanted to learn something specific or found a guitarist he liked that made lesson videos;
    2. Ren was racked by insecurities in his early days of busking and performing in general. This surprised me because Ren looks like he was born to perform on a stage; and
    3. I am not really a big wrap on The Darkness as a band, more because I haven't really heard much of their music. However, I found Justin Hawkins to be extremely engaging and humble in the interview, so I kind of feel bad about having held a negative bias towards Hawkins and the band in general. I now plan to rectify this by making an effort to expose myself to more of Hawkins and The Darkness.
    Alex and George, this has truly been a wonderful detour and I feel that Ren does deserve an ongoing wedge on the Wheel of For-Tune.
    Keep the good stuff coming.

    Check out "Chalk Outlines (live)" and "How to be me (live)". Both are Ren ft. Chinchilla, so you can sneak them on as a Chinchilla reaction instead of a Ren reaction. 😉 Jokes aside, Chinchilla is extremely talented and I've no doubt those tracks would blow you away. For a little more of his range, try "The Hunger" or "Genesis" for some serious rap skills, or some personal favourites are "Crutch" ft Bibi and "Humble" ft Eden Nash. Moving away from Ren, how about "Prelude to Madness" followed immediately by "Hall of the Mountain King" by Savatage for an epic two part twist on a classical piece.

    Ren was not only the singer/guitarist, he's the audio engineer that put together the recording setup on this. It was all pretty basic off the shelf gear including a couple of Zoom handheld recorders as far as I know. If he ever decides to hang up his performing career, I think he could be a highly successful producer/engineer for a long time.

    Oh, this isn't even back to the beginning, learning stages of his career. This was the comeback phase after the worst of his illness stage. There are vids out there of him busking in Bath while in college before he got sick/before he understood how sick he was. Look for Ren Trick the Fox, that's the band he was in then. there is a sad vid where he is sitting on a chair to sing. trying to keep doing the thing in the early stages of his illness I think. there's also a vid of the first time he busked with Sam Tompkins, their how we met story is sweet but I'll let someone else tell it, and he's sitting on the sidewalk to play there too. AND there's a whole other channel of stuff he produced for other artists while he was ill, work he could do from his room. it's called Ren's Room.`
    Evidently Glastonbury contacted him earlier this year when he started blowing up, but his medical treatment won't allow it.
    he just interviewed with Justin Hawkins, who brought up the idea on a video two months ago. and he's contacted Black Pegasus a few days ago. you two are late to the party but he'll likely get to you eventually, in between medical appointments, producing the backlog of stuff he brought to work on and release during his treatment, recovering from the medical treatments, more production.

    I understand that, due to Ren's health problems, it was hard to commit to regular gigs, in case he was too sick and had to cancel. He shared a house in Brighton with Romain Axisa, the lead guitarist. They used to busk regularly with Gorran Kendall, the bassist, and drummer Glenn Chambers. He also has some brilliant performances with Sam Tompkins, and Chinchilla .

    You haven’t even started yet! 😂 He has some fantastic collaborations with Sam Tomkins and Chinchilla to start with and carry on with the big push they have some great covers. His own music has lots of different styles too. I am not sure how many you have done but the Freckled Angels album has some bangers and then the raps like The Hunger, Losing it, Genesis
 have fun
