Sending big big love!! Thank you for such heartfelt words ❤

Ren believes that reactors are helping him gain listens. What he might not realize is that reactors are also growing listening to his art. I’ve loved your other reactions but seeing you and other reactors open up reacting to Ren is as amazing as his art!

Congratulations on you being sober for 8 years. That's awesome. Speak on it and keep it up.

Ren is doing what artists should be doing.

this guy is just beyond words.....wow

Ren touches the soul right at its core!! 💯🤯🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥

Omg “I think I just got a kidney stone” if that’s not the greatest line reacting to a song idk what is. Killing it bro

The eye contact they give each other breaks me so much

My brother, I wish that I had the means to support your mission. Unfortunately, that is not reality. I felt the need to thank you for leading me to 'The Bard of Brighton', and this beautiful angel Chinchilla. 46 years on this floating rock and I needed this. Much love to all.

"I'll bury myself in a great big smile" - I've been doing this for years. 😔

Still hits so deep. 2 years and 2 months sober. Thank you for your thoughts and perspective 👌 keep it up legend

How to be me by the both of them another beautiful one ❤

Bro not afraid to say it I tear tf up on this song EVERY time. It hits hard and deeeep.

Everything about this is genuine. Even the reaction. Keep our heads up

Ren v Chinchilla's Chalk Outline and How To Be Me are my two top favorites of his songs so far. Of course Hi Ren is right up there too. You must react to "How To Be Me" its so powerful. Quiet a few years ago Ren lost his best friend to suicide. He jumped off a bridge, late at night, at a very dark moment in his very short life They were never able to find his body. It impacted Ren immensely, I'm guessing it's in a very safe way given Ren courage in the years following. Like all Ren's other music he pulls you in and you feel everything. He's so original, positive and engaging. I'm 68 and respect that not only is he an extraordinary talent, but his perseverance, strength and his ability to never gives up (even though he's had every reason to) is so impressive. It's clear Ren strives for happiness, his ability to continue to evolve and grow has turned him into a young man that will change the world, he will change many lives in a massive positive way. Vibe I love your reactions. They are so honest and clearly from the heart. You dir, will also change live a leave a powerful footprint behind you. ❤️❤️❤️❤️

Man, I found you through Ren but damn this might be the best reaction I have seen. Lost a friend today your reaction helped

I like you. Empaths make me believe in good ppl . Usually i watch only katrina velarde but Ren is a must watch

Ren has opened a Portal - so many reactions, deep discussions, honest expression as well as channel and views growth for himself and his reactors - he hasn't just dropped a pebble into a lake, he's cast a meteorite into the ocean and is creating a Tsunami of community connection, communication and growth with all who "Rensonate" with him. I believe he's a Warrior of Light💖🙏 Beautiful reaction btw - new sub here via Ren

SSSOOOO POWERFUL!!! THEIR VOICES! THE SONG! Lord. Great reaction! Subscribing :) Thank you so much.

REN IS HEALING US WITH HIS PAIN. ❤

I think this is the fourth time I've watched this reaction. I keep coming back to it every two or three months. You are such a loving soul and I love how they touch you and your pep talk at the end? It helps! Thanks

Ren & Chinchilla sing “how to be me” beautiful

Ren using the acoustics of his sets to create the soundscapes in his songs is an incredible talent that I don't see anyone else doing. He creates a bigger sound with his vocals and a simple guitar than other entire bands i listen to.

Love your reactions to Ren

It's more than art. It's cathartic .

Wow - did not think my first reaction to this song could be made even deeper by watching your reaction - thank you 💙. Had to step away a bit - collect my thoughts. Yes, I agree that medication is over prescribed. Yes, the wrong treatment is given and it can take a very long time to find the right treatment. Yet we need to be very careful - many treatments work, it just may take time. Mistakes may happen but we can't give up trying. Something Ren said in another video about his experience trying to find the right treatment took years. The thing is - even when you find what works the treatment can cause long term harm. My mother suffered with a Chronic condition for decades. Years ago she had major surgery and took a particular medication to keep her condition under control. That medication contributed to why she died. Yet it kept her alive for many years. They now have other medications to treat this condition. She experienced the best and worst of the medical profession. At one point they had to restart her heart. The worst didn't break her - it kept her fighting. Why I am to sharing this with you after watching your reaction was something you said earlier on... On the last day with her in the hospital one of the final things she said to me before they took her to another hospital - thinking they could save her - was No Regrets. Maybe it was what she had been saying to herself for years. Maybe she wanted me to hear it and remember, because she knew there would be times I wish I had done more. Why I say this to you... You seem to carry shame for things in your past. The thing is - those experiences make you who you are now. Someone who has found Ren. Someone sharing your reactions that are making this even more extraordinary for others. No regrets does not mean you forget everything - pain, addiction... Embrace this and try to live each day with no regrets. My mother lived in so much pain - yet even as her body betrayed her she tried to live with no regrets. Thank you 💙

Now THIS is the type of reaction I was looking for. I was absolutely reduced to TEARS the first few times I heard this. Absolutely breathtakingly tragically beautiful.

Ren is genre defying! Look how much good he is doing! This is the future of music and the labels are afraid. Thank you for your great reactions, help and advice! This IS beyond music and we are witnessing music history in the making! I think he will be a music legend if he is not already, in my book he is! Thanks again VIBE REACTIONS!

My eyes are watery. This is so powerful. Hearing so much of my life flowing out of someone else's mouth in the form of beautiful lyrics. I will say this till I die, music has an amazing power of empathy.

Just discovered you because of Ren. You are amazing. This song hits me deep as a 51 year old living with end stage kidney disease, life long dialysis, anxiety and depression. You speak so well and you're not afraid to let your emotions show. Keep up the good work and peace ✌️

I've struggled with mental health issues my entire life. The truest line for me is the "I'm scared of being ok cuz all things change." Sometimes it amounts to who will remain at your side if/when you DO get better. People I thought I could rely on and catch me if I fell ended up cutting me out of their lives. I wasn't the "same person" any longer. Looking back I see it was nothing I did wrong: finding my personal strength meant they could no longer control me. I wasn't their doormat anymore. I'll always struggle with mental health, but at least at this point in my life I'm surrounded by people who honestly support me with a terrific therapist who has undoubtedly saved my life a million times over. Never give up the fight. 🙏♥

If you like Chinchilla and Ren 🔥🔥 you're going to love Sam Tompkins and Ren!! 🔥🔥🔥

I'm now a huge Ren fan! Literally addicted. Both there voices in this are OUTSTANDING #Ren #CHINCHILLA 🔥❣️🔥❣️

I absolutely love the tone of both of their voices.

This art is real medicine.

It touches you at a cellular level doesn't it. "How to be me" (live) the 2 of these in perfect action again.

I feel you man!♥I was already in the Chinchilla rabbit hole for the last weeks and fell in love with her raw emotional voice. This song is just the tip of her iceberg. She has an unearthly voice and talented AF. I wonder why nobody goes through that rabbit hole and react to her solo live performances yet. I highly recommend her "VERO Presents: CHINCHILLA - FINGERS Live for HungerTV".

8 years of hard work and dedication. Way to go my guy, keep up the hard work. Another great review :)

The most beautiful people we know are those who have known defeat known suffering, known struggle, and have found their way out of the depths They have a understanding of life that fills them with compassion Beautiful people don't just happen they're created through hardship.

This one's a dagger. And Ren stuck it straight into the heart of anyone who gave him their ear.

new sub here because "He is DIFFERENT and She is singing with her FACE!" nailed it, mic drop. EDIT: I also like waving back at ya when you try to get that light back on haha!

You're turning into my favourite reactor. You sir are a stand up man.

You said everything I wante to say. PeRFECT ty

I love when you get real, man. These songs hit different.

❤🤙🤘 ty dude ren freaking rocks dude🤙

Thank your for your thoughts and openness. Ren and Chinchilla also duet on How to Be Me. Another tough and beautiful one.

Im 12 yrs clean, only 3 wks sober, and im not excusing anything...its an ever•present, non stop battle. And fight we must. Love you bud. From NC.

You are the epitome of a great person. This was so awesome. You are killing it bro!

OK, I'm subbed. I'm already lost down the Ren rabbit hole, I'll see you down here.

Best reaction video I have ever seen. I was in tears.

"I'm scared of being OK cos all things change." Yeah - that's where I am right now.

Thanks for creating the Ren playlist, it made it much easier for me to navigate.

Ren is his own genre! First time viewing you. I loved watching how much you enjoyed it. God bless you brother.

How can this not be worldfamous? Wait for the girl to hook in....bizar.

Congratulations on 8 years. I am 6 years clean and sober myself.

You just earned my respect.

One of the best reactions to Ren .... you understand , you lived it. Followed Ren for years and happy now his music and talent is reaching a wider world.

Love your reactions. Thanks for your sharing and insight. Real emotional song/performance. Just beautiful

Oh Great. Another mass from the preacher guy...thank u sir.

8 years sober this last August big man! all my love to you for fighting that battle every day

Man we love you brother, hope you and your daughter are doing well ❤

Your reactions are legendary! You can go all the way down the Ren rabbit hole and I'll be here for every video.

Another great reaction. May I recommend you check out Ren's other collaboration with Chinchilla, "How to Be Me," as well. As for "Chalk Outlines," it is one of my favorite songs right now. It moves me to tears every time, no matter how many times I listen to it; it describes my daily struggle for the past 25+ years. Looking forward to more Ren reactions from you. God bless.

I got goosebumps at the same time you did. lovely song

It hurts so good. Never give up. ❤️🌻

Good for you Ray, 8 years sober. Stay strong. REN sends a message to all of us.

That was such a heartfelt reaction. I love how honest and raw your videos are. I emplore you to just scroll to the bottom of rens page and just work your way up. His catalogue is extensive enough that it should take a while but it's not a ridiculous amount. Every song he makes is so uniquely brilliantly Ren. Been waiting so many years for people to catch on to the hype and I'm so here for it now they have.

I love when reactors physically feel the music

Wow hadn’t heard that one yet. Not sure what to say, that song is incredible. Amazing what music is out there. What a blessing

One camera one take. Props

Pure perfection❤❤❤👍🔥🔥🔥...ty so much for your amazing and honest reaction...so vulnerable so needed. Ty I relate.

congrats to you on 8 years. you are probably 9 by now. love your reactions to Ren. i heard hi Ren and i’m hooked!

What I see here in Ray is an individual with a very high EQ. Capable of being in your face funny, heart wrenchingly deep and every point in between. Most importantly, he knows where on that spectrum to be at any given moment. Much respect my man, thanks for opening up and for the great reaction!

you described it perfectly his soul is mirrored in his face!

Bro you nailed this reaction exactly how I felt when I watched this video

This song hits hard. I fight seasonal depression and it kicks me hard. I love this song and have a love for Ren's music. Thank you for the reaction.

Love this song, these singers and this reaction! This is so relatable and inspiring. As you said in a previous reaction “ My goosebumps have ducks”!

So glad to have found your channel! Absolutely love watching how much Ren blows your mind! The Ren Rabbit hole is a wonderful place! 😂🥰

love how real your reactions are man, keep it up

EPIC EPIC EPIC SONG!! I can not believe I'm only catching onto Ren now!!! Where the hell have I been !???....Masterpiece !!

You are so under rated! Best reaction video I’ve ever seen bar none!

You should really react to his band The Big Push, a busking cover band. Great musicality and he really shows off his singing abilities!

REN has so much soul to his voice and storytelling. A very important message in order to heal is to allow yourself to be vulnerable and Feel! It is very hard but it is a healing and refreshing thing to cry and it is completely fine and human. Humans are very unique in the sense that we are the only species on the planet that cries out of emotion that we know of. No other species does this. Be grateful for the ability to feel as deeply as you can.

Eight years sober? Nice going, man! Also, great reaction! And good, real talk about important subjects. Subbing

This is just a masterpiece and should be performed infront of an inspiring audience ❤ love their vocals an this gave me goose bumps as well, thank you for your reaction it was authentic an you spoke alot of truth!

Congrats on your sobriety! The world is a better place with you Ray!

Amazing reaction! I loved seeing your passion and listening to your comments as you connected your own life to the song. It's obvious that you've been through some sh*t and hearing more of Ren's "story" brought out some feels. You're real. Ren's real. Loved it. I appreciate your work!

Congrats on the 7yrs on ur sobriety bro had to subscribe to u cuz u keep it real n I love that...n ren is a talented artists... his music is art n poetry

This guy right here is a real man. Stay strong brother.

Ren and Sam live.... Man's world...... How the voices grow (Sam is the man too); blow your mind 😂😂

💗💗💗Great reaction Ray, thanks, you and Federico are an unbeatable team... Peace and love from Bavaria!

Hey you remembered!!!! Thank you and also I love you brother for all the kind words your the best you deserve so much for what you do ... Much love my brother..

Beautiful words bro so fitting to the song

Love your reaction. Yeah, Ren is different. His music and words opens hearts and minds. Watching the reactions of so many people to his works show me, that I am not alone to feel this way.

Ray, I truly love your reactions! There Real, there Raw, it comes from experience and from your heart! A lot of reactors don't get it, they misdiagnose the real message of what's being conveyed! I can see why it can drive people crazy from a missed diagnosis in many avenues of life! This is why I like your reactions because you get it when some don't! Keep doing you...

Love that you've created the Ren zone .... excellent 🙂

Chinchilla. Fingers. The live version though.

HUGS RAY! 🤗🥰 ✌️❤️‍🔥❤️‍🔥🎶🎶💯😏

congrats for being 8 years sober! what an accomplish. you have a lot to be proud of, 🙂

Next song- please do “ what you want” by Ren. It’s old school gansta music that will love!!!!!
