I want to see them headline a concert together! So I can sing this song alongside them! ❤❤❤
You are the boss here you pause as much as you want, it's your lawn.
Same ! One ticket for me, please!
You could do the emotional translation person! I would buy that ticket in a heartbeat!
I want to see a live performance of this song but with a string ensemble à la the studio version. Yesterday.
My automatic interpretation of "I'm scared of being okay cause all things change" was "I'm scared of knowing happiness and having it ripped away because it can't last". For me, having that taken away is scarier and more devastating than keeping the status quo.
This is what comes to mind when I hear that line. I'd rather be in a state that I'm used to than to be happy and have that feeling disappear and you don't know if or when you'll get it back.
My first thought was never being able to feel ok because everything has changed or will change and not even recognize what ok even feels like
That's true enough. But there's to many perspectives in our lives, so it's best we attempt to see the most awesome perspective. What you're seeing is simply art
That doesn't mean you have to live there.
A Ren-aissance is happening
If you haven't heard, "How To Be Me," (LIVE) ... prepare. Tissues aren't a bad idea. This song was a tribute to Ren's friend, Joe Hughes, who chose to end his time on Earth. Listen to the lyrics with that in mind ... you can interpret them from Joe's POV or Ren's, but the last few lines are definitely Ren's. If you want more of Ren and Chinchilla's voices blended in an absolutely mesmerizing way, give that a listen. But prepare for a heartbreaker.
Adding that to the list!
@@snakevenomv Please do. And while you’re at it, add Chinchillas live version of Fingers aswell!
@@snakevenomv He also has another song entirely dedicated to Joe called Freckled Angels off the album by the same name. There's a live version and a studio version. Although the live version is video of Ren performing the song to a live audience, I prefer the studio version. Still has all the feels with more strength in his vocals. Or you could do them both on the same reaction, lol. I appreciate your sensitivity so much, btw.
@@geralynsteppe5974 And soon Suic*de will drop too. The community post about this upcoming track is heartbreaking. But Ren is a beautiful and strong person for being so open and willing to be vulnerable. You can only love this man and empathise with his pain.
@@geralynsteppe5974 Will definitely check that out! Thank you for being here
If people don’t like your pausing, there are plenty of reactors that don’t pause often. I like the pauses and breakdowns. It’s why I subscribe to you
You're right and that's great to hear. Thank you for showing support! ❤
I can tell you from personal experience that sometimes medications you 'have' to take turn you into such a ghost of your real self, that chalk outline is a good description of it. Great reaction, Snake! 🎶🔥💖😎
Thank you for being here ❤
I think you 100% nailed that definition of living as a Chalk Outline
Thank you! 🙏
The desperation..the vulnerability in both their voices
As someone with a severe chronic pain disorder, connective tissue autoimmune disorder, arthritis, depression, cptsd, panic, agoraphobia....
I'm not gonna list everything, that should be enough lol, I know all about the dead feeling from pills and just wanting to stop.
I know well the feeling of crawling into bed and praying that you wake up someone else or don't wake up at all. It hurts so much all the time that the thought of living thru it again is exhausting and heartbreaking.
I'm on sertraline (zoloft) as we speak (along with pain meds, anti-anxiety meds, muscle relaxer, anti-inflammatory, and nerve pain meds) and that "sip of serotonin" is what makes the lovely deadening effect on the brain. So my chalk outline, so accurate. If only it killed the pain center as well.
This song hits my heart and soul like a wrecking ball.
I hate the way I feel every day, but if I were to have a day without it all.... I'd be terrified. Being ok just means that when it crashes back down again it hurts even more. And still, I pray for a break. Just a day or an hour. I'm on the gallows gasping on my tippy toes as the noose tightens. It's hard to smile....I don't go out much (agoraphobia is a b**ch), but when I do, I smile at ppl. I tell them I'm fine and how are they?! I listen to them when they cry about their problems and let them vent. Then I go home and wish I were them.
Great reaction, I love Ren's mind for helping me to feel I'm not alone. Watching the reactions and reading the comments also give me that less isolated feeling.
Thank you. ❤
She said in a recent interview that both her and Ren are very passionate singers and that’s why they worked so well together. I have to agree! I love this song and video. Thanks for the great analysis!
Definitely shows! Thank you!
I don't understand why people think they can dictate the way someone reacts to something. Like did you create me mf'er?!
Hi there! My native language is Spanish, so maybe that is why I think there is a double meaning on the line "It's such a perfect day, take it just in case". It hit me first as "take this beautiful day because there are not many of them, just in case you need some good memories to hold on" and then I understood the meaning of "take the pill just in case so you don't ruin this beautiful day" by listening to reactor. I think its duplicity is powerful!
Great reaction! For another stunning performance, you will absolutely love their "How to be Me" (Live). Won't be able to hold back the tears.
This ⬆️ ❤
💅 The claws! Wait till you watch 'Fingers' (The Live version) 🥰
Nice. 👍
Chinchilla gives me goosebumps - That voice! ❤
The RENaissance is becoming a movement. Ren is speaking to our souls. He literally is "teaching over beats, teaching on these streets, to all those who seek." See if you recognise these lyrics when you hear them for the first time.
😊❤ Lots of love to you, you feel the music and you are very perceptive. Great reaction.
I'll keep my ears open for those lyrics ❤
Your reactions are unbelievable. You feel every line and you get everything. Thank you for letting us be part of your heartfelt emotions. The chemistry between those two is beyond words. ❤️ "how to be me" please. And if you would like to see their chemistry in a scenario, where nothing is really "planned" and thought of a lot, watch their busking session "sexual healing". They just know what to do. Musical siblings, as they call one another. They are, without doubt. Much love from Germany, ❤️
Much love ❤ and thank you for the suggestions. Adding them to the list!
Thank you for your analysis and your interpretation! English is not my native language, and it turned out I don't know it well enough to understand poetry and complex metaphors. When I came across Ren's video, for the first time in a long time I felt helplessness and despair that I could not understand a deeper meaning due to my level of English and lack of understanding of culture. But your reactions are my salvation. Thanks to them, it is easier for me to understand what was meant. Thank you very much! ❤
And you are very attentive and sincere.❤
The acoustics in this video is phenomenal!!!!
Thanks for letting us see your wiping the tears in the corners of your eyes. Showing that emotion, as Ren and Chinchilla are doing, makes this so real! You should do “How To Be Me” live, another duet between Ren and Chinchilla!
Will do!
The boy knows how to write powerful songs & pick collaborators who can really add something to the work. Chinchilla really likes a good pop song and does a number of them herself--and they are fantastic as well--but she & Ren show such authenticity that songs like these really pack a punch.
Btw, forgot to say that your Ren reactions are top notch. Really love your way of pinpointing everything important with a soft beautiful language.
Thank you for that, truly appreciated!
agreed. your situational & empathetic awareness is one thing but you articulate in a way that helps to process the significance of the verse ren has given. am yet just another ren rabbit hole of reaction watchers, to stay in that heady awe. you are one of those people that i re-watch to re-feel. respect for you reviews. ❤ 🙏🏻
@@lizabec Thank you for you're kind sentiments they are appreciated ❤🙏
You are really good at this. I appreciate your sincere and skilled investment in your reactions.
And I love your deep humanness. Feels genuine.
Ren is rewiring our collective social neurology and we are meeting many nice people because of it.
Their harmonies are spectacular. And it's the songwriting that is so masterful that we feel every note.
Ren calls Chinchilla his musical sibling.
If you thinks i'm going to spend half hour seeing your video. You're totally right, because I love your reactions man, the feeling you put in them is just amazing, keep doing this great work man!
Aye! Thank you for being a part of it! 🤟
Great reaction! You have a point at the end, but the correct lyric is 'erase'. You really need to do their other song How to Be Me... it's another killer... of the heartbreak variety.
The lyrics hit hard in this one, don’t they? “I’m scared of being okay, cause all things change” is so simple but so so powerful. Please check out Crutch feat. Bibi. An older song from before he finally got the right diagnosis and written after multiple emergency trips to the hospital and a subsequent breakdown. It is a heart wrenching but stunning piece of raw emotion. One of my two favourite songs by Ren.
The meds they had me take made me feel vacant, slow, pliable, and emotionally cold... empathy was vanishing the longer I was on a couple of them so I stopped...
I hope you're in a better position now
This was a really good analysis of this song. I quite liked it. Thank you.
Brilliant analysis!
The first light flicker during the song coincides with the word erase.
Don't change anything about your reactions, they are brilliant. You are brilliant. ❤
🙏❤
So you finally met Chinchilla... watch her performing Fingers (live)
How to be me, has already been suggested 😉
Awesome reaction 👍✌️
Will do, thank you! 🤟
I really like your reactions and analysis of Ren and Dirt. Seen several good ones too by others, but not with your keen eyes and ears for every tiny detail.
You pause and reflect and take your time. I' ll still be there after an hour, if you need that time.💚
🙏 I really am thankful for your support ❤
Oh you’re good!!👍😁😘
PS Ren always posts the lyrics under his songs and the last line is
‘Erase ourselves in these chalk outlines’
But I like your thinking!!
Love your reaction! This song hits my heart so much! Especially the gallows line and the take it just in case.
How To Be Me Live & Then Chinchilla Fingers Live!
Great reaction!! Next react to "How To Be Me" by Ren ft. Chinchilla!! It is 🔥🔥
Love your interpretation, and you are such an empathetic soul ❤ always looking forward to your videos! Dirt Miller is another artist who thanks to Ren is now on my playlist, I am mesmerised by him. so glad you are supporting him, he definitely needs a boost! ❤ thank you for being such a great human being.
Love your reaction to Ren. He is a genius and changing people's lives with his honest heartfelt words
Love your reactions and analyses - these two are phenomenal together as others have said. Talent attracts talent and all the "Ren friends" are super talented from Chinchilla, Sam Tompkins and the guys in Ren's band, the Big Push.
As for Chinchilla, prepare yourself for her song Fingers live for Hunger TV - the whole performance will blow your mind.
If you’re after recommendations, I would suggest Ren Crutch for something heartbreaking, or Chinchillas Little Girl Gone for something fun and taking back power
9:02 you pause and I’m like NNNNOOOOOOOOOOOO you’re about to feel it for real!!!!!!
12:23
I told you so
How to be Me--Live..would love to watch your reaction!!
Their voices compliment each other so perfectly. This is such a hauntingly beautiful song, it really pulls at the heart strings. 😢🖤
One of my favorite collaborations ever!
@@snakevenomv defo! 🖤
It's divine ❤❤
Followed you on Twitch and I think I'm number 51! Love Dirt Miller. Did a painting of him recently. So glad you got a chance to do this reaction. Hope you do the suggestions in the comments!
Sweet! Thank you for that, I love streaming! And that's awesome, you should show him the painting! 🤟
Wowww, I loooved your reaction. I am amazed by the depth of your interpretation and you sensitivity and empathy. It was beautiful to see you connect in such level with the song and totally understand what they were saying and transmiting beyond their words. Thanks for sharing this with us!
Really super reaction. You’re an intelligent guy and your filler portions also paint your picture of how you interpret it. XO🎉
The chair in the beginning scraping I initially thought was to show the acoustics, but ‘cherophobia’ is the irrational fear of being happy… this boy is literally a magic elf and I’m here for it ❤
Ren is my new therapist and all these reaction videos are my therapy session. Your reactions are on a different level and I love it! ❤
Thank you for being here! Much love. Speaking of therapy sessions, I have a reaction releasing in the coming days by NF called Therapy Session lol ❤
These two are music soul mates. Youve given this such a beautiful reaction. Thank yiu for giving this the reverence this deserves.
Have you heard " How to Be Me" yet?
I have not yet, but it's on the list!
Agree this is art! The level of body jestures by Chinchilla said so much more than words ever could. And the peak of oh my my by Chinchilla just is amazing Ren 100% too the duet was mesmerizing. It's like I need to faint at the songs conclusion just to know I'm still living
The chemistry between them is amazing .
Absolutely!
Every single one of your REN reactions is so stinkin’ good! I enjoy your step by step commentary throughout the song because your comments are both intelligent and insightful. Your obvious appreciation makes it even more interesting. Honestly, I feel like you’re a tour guide on a musical, lyrical journey … thank you ❤
Wow! Thanks a great compliment! Thank you so much, I'm happy you're here to be a part of it ❤
Chinchilla, Fingers live, will blow your mind. One of the best vocal performances I have ever seen and i am old. Great review by the way.
On the list! I'm excited!
There enough "let the song breathing" reaction out there.
I enjoy your reactions. I think i told you on an other comment before, how important your reaction is for me, because english is not my mother tongue. And I understand your pronunciation so well and your
facial expressions fits. All your talents together entertain me and put a smile on my face.🤘
Awesome! I'm super glad to hear that, and I'm happy to help you in some way! 🤘
Your empathy is beautiful, such an amazing reaction 💛
❤
Best reaction - so in-depth and insightful! I’m a massive renegade and have seen loads - yours takes the biscuit! More generally, you’re my favourite reactor - such thoughtful, analytical commentaries and responses from the heart. Please keep it up!
I really appreciate you saying those nice things! Much love to you, I'll try ❤🙏
I absolutely ❤ Ren! He is sooooo talented! I hope I get to see him perform live someday ❤❤❤ You are very observant Mr. Snake, which makes your reactions so entertaining! Btw I love that you play Magic the Gathering 👍
Thank you! MTG 👀❤ Much love
True beauty. When we watch your genuine reactions and heart felt emotions it's why we watch Ren reactions. You optimise the reaction scene and I hope to become a reactor one day and if I can be a fraction of what you are I'll be happy.
I humbly thank you for the kind words! 🙏 Would love to check your reactions out when you decide to do them. Much love
I absolutely LOVE your reactions!! So heartfelt, and you catch so many details. I actually watch your reactions as my first time hearing a song because it adds so much to the experience! You have changed the way I "listen" to music. You deserve so many more subs, and I hope more and more people find your videos. In the meantime you are my go to reaction channel. Keep up the good work!!
That's an amazing response! I truly am appreciative of your sentiments, they mean a lot. Literally made my day reading this! I'm happy I was able to do that for you, thank you for being a part of it! ❤
Great reaction! Thanks. You brought me some new perspectives to the song and their performance itself that I haven't "seen", thought or heard others say. You just expanded this beautiful duet for me.❤ Looking forward to seeing your reaction to How to be me (LIVE)
I have watched hundreds of resction videos (mostly Ren) but you sir are my favorite by far! I appreciate what you are doing to take us deeper and give us your fresh perspective on each song! So much fun to watch!
I'm happy to hear that! Thank you for being here! Much love 🤟
Awesome reaction to an amazing song 👌👏👏
Just loved some of the insight you saw in the performance that I have not heard from anyone else... them finding each other, after her hearing his suffering, and comforting each other in their shared pain... loved that and fits the performance perfectly ❤👍🇬🇧
🤟❤
Your reviews are a journey. You are fantastic at digging your way through these songs. I can't seem to catch all that you do, and you add so much more to the experience of watching them.
I'm happy to hear that! Thank you for the kind words
Ren was misdiagnosed a decade ago by doctors. He had Lime Disease, but they thought his mind was playing tricks and gave him strong drugs psychotropics and told him he was crazy. The Lyme disease ran amuck for 7-8 years. He is currently in Canada receiving treatment to undo all the damage done. His life was dramatically shortened by the misdiagnosis, but he is doing his best to stay in shape and recover all the stolen years past & future. Basically, it's LIKE having a broken leg and the Dr telling you it's all in your head and prescribing a bunch of super strong psychotropics for 7-8 years. I saw an interview the NHS would make fun of him for asking for more tests on his blood. They are the pig in his videos.
I can't even describe how much I enjoy your reactions ❤️🔥🥰 I knew you have an eye and ear for all the details, but you even feel every bit of it and never shy away to express the emotions.
Thanks a lot for your effort to draw attention to mental health awareness 🫶
Your interpretation of the song and description of depression is really on point.
Just wanted to add one thing:
The last line is 'Erase ourselves in these chalk outlines'
For me it's about the risk to forget who you really are or want to be. If you bury yourself for to long with the smiles and numb the pain with medications/drugs it might help to get through but then there can be also a lot of work/therapy needed to recover and find yourself again preferably with new perspectives for the future.
And that leads me to the next track I would recommend to check out, if you want another experience of this magical duet ❤️🔥 also known as musical soulmates/siblings 😁🥰
'How To Be Me' (live) is another masterclass performance by Ren X Chinchilla and again really hits hard deep inside 🥹❤️🔥
If you like to experience the solo work of the powerhouse called Chinchilla,
pleeeeaaaase check out 'Fingers' (live) and her latest hit 'Little Girl Gone', the first track she released as independent Artist🔥❤️
It just dawned on me that your music-reactions would be really helpfull to blind people, that do not have the chance to enjoy the visuall aspect of the Ren-videos (or others) extra point for that!! ❤️ i enjoyed this! Signed up!
Thank you so much for saying that! That's one of the best compliments I've ever received, I'm happy to be able to do that 🙏❤
@@snakevenomv I have put the Word out! Please keep doing this your own way! Big hugs from the north of Norway! ❤️ (… And the «Check on your happy friends» 🎯 !!! )
I haven't heard the analysis yet but I'm confident it'll be amazing and have hit the like button already 😊
No keep pausing!!!! We can go listen to the video i. It’s entirety if we want to. You have the most in depth reactions and I LOVE that!!! I can’t believe everything you catch!!!
I would like to add that I do like when you allow a full section to play out and then go back and break it down bit by bit. 😊
I really appreciate that, thank you!
Check out " fingers" by Chinchilla...
You do what you want m8.. It's Your channel... 🤘😎 And Im here with the Ren train... Keep 'em coming m8... and welcome to the rabbit hole 😂
🤘
wonderful reaction - love these two together and separately - amazing.
Such a perfect song.
Just found you, and love your interpretation. Thank you for listening to Ren and sharing your mind.
Thank you for being here 🤟
Bruh!! 😯Your reaction to this song was beautiful!🥰 Subbed!! I love watching people react to Ren. It brings back that feeling i felt when i first heard him. Ive fallen down the Ren rabbit hole and have no desire to climb out! He's sooo incredibly talented it blows my mind! 🤯
No I like it when you pause because you analyze and react to the songs/videos! I already know the songs you react to so I’m not here to listen to the songs. If I want to listen to a song I just go listen to it! I hate it when reactors basically watch the whole thing and then at the end just say Woooooow or whatever! So you do you and don’t change !!! 😊 xxx a French Fan 🇫🇷🥖
Thank you, I'm happy to hear you enjoy them! Much love! ❤
BIG HUG...
another great reaction 🥹🙏🏼
This is such a beautiful reaction to a truly beautiful song ❤
Great reaction.
A beautiful song that somehow also sounds like crying.
CHILLS
Hauntingly beautiful.
Great reaction old boy best I've seen of this song.
Aye thank you! 🤟 Much love
Thank you for such a genuine reaction ❤ enjoyed every moment 💖
Hey, great reaction. I came as a youtube recommendation for Little Girl Gone, then followed your path to Dirt Kansas City and have decided to stay and subscribe due to your pauses and playbacks. I love that you are not rushing things and want to experience it all to the fullest. Great job!
I really appreciate you saying that! I don't like when things are rushed, I prefer to try to get the most out of things in order to enhance my experience. Thank you for being here and enjoying these! Much love 🤟
@@snakevenomv I don't think I've ever seen anyone react so fully to any one thing, let alone each thing. You are doing brilliantly. I love the gaming and movie references as well.
I love your reactions. I don't watch reactions to listen to the song, i go to spotify for that. I watch reactions to hear the reactors thoughts and opinions and you do it wonderfully ❤
I HATE when channels just play the song all the way through, then say 'wow, that was awsome - see you next time' 😂
An awesome reaction....added so much to my previous understanding of this song...you went really deep...definite sub from me.
One thing I thought was genius, was that the person recording is almost circling around Ren as if they're tracing a chalk outline.
Ooh 👀 good point!
I loved this reaction so SO so much! The realities of mental health awareness and Depression you describe with such accurate depiction is phenomenal. And there is so much truth in the realities of what we want to believe (I want to be "normal", I want to be "okay", I want to be "cured") and the understanding that these things are logical fallacies that we've made up in society. I guarantee you ANYONE with issues of Depression, anxiety, and toxic fear about mental health, if they should hear this reaction, will have a very good chance at some revelation because of the information you're providing. Thanks for helping people, my man! 🙂💜
Please try How to be me (live) for the hauntingly beautiful blend of their voices.
Beautiful reaction ❤
RENaissance. RENegades!!!!
Thank you,one of my favourites ❤
You are helping people like Ren and me with lyme who are struggling to live with this horrible disease 🦠 Lyme is horrible and I have babesiosis a co infection of lyme and it affects my breathing so the part about on my toes in the gallows so i can breathe is my hope and I feel as tho I’m drawing my chalk outlines slowly and with a smile because no one can understand
My theory: They are ghosts. Dressed in white. One light for Ren, two lights for Chinchilla as they become visible.
Thats a great interpretation! If that's the case, it makes watching the performance from that perspective even more wild!
My thoughts, since "Hi Ren" on the flickering lights...
It started as the "dark" only, then it continued during/after the uplifting part of hope (the dark is always looming in the background), its the everlasting dance, the struggle.
So the flickering light is the always present darkness in the background, and two for both of their separate own struggles..
Great reaction Ren is something else peace
Yes!
Shit man, you’re incredible!
❤🤟
Beautiful heartfelt reaction. ❤️
I absolutely love your interpretation of this, great reaction 🫶
Thank you so much!
❤❤❤❤❤
