Great choice and great reaction. Yes, you are correct, this is an original. Ren's and Sam’s collaborations are definitely a must. Check out their busking sessions and music videos. "Earned It/Man's World/Falling," “Walking on the Moon/No Diggity,” “Feeling Good/Trouble So High/Masterblaster (Jammin'),” “Latch,” “Wild Thoughts/Crazy in Love (Live Session),” “Same Old Situation (Live, feat. Ren),” “Improvising Around Stevie Wonder,” “Live in the Streets of Brighton, UK” are all amazing. Their song "Blind Eyed" is a fan favorite, and they recorded several other live versions, each unique, and an official music video. “What Went Wrong” Part I&II are also great, and I believe there is going to be a Part III coming out one of these days. Sam Tompkins is a singer/songwriter from Brighton, UK. He is an incredible artist who recently opened up for Justin Bieber in Norway. Sam has a number of songs, "Bloodline," "Hero," "Follow Suit," “Whole,” and “Not So Grey,” that address some serious issues like family, mental health, suicide, and other struggles. "You Broke My Heart So Gently," "Critical," "You're The Love Of My Life," “Google Luv,” “Ten Feet Apart,” and his cover of Tears For Fears' "Mad World" are beautiful, but his entire catalog is well-worth listening to. I usually prefer the acoustic version of his songs. His latest release, "Time Will Fly," is currently my favorite song of his and one of my favorite songs overall, with "See Me" and "Lose It All" running close behind. His rendition of "How To Save A Life (Cover)" is also stunning and really reveals his soulfulness. Unfortunately, it is way too short, not the full-length version of the original. Looking forward to following you down the Sam Tompkins rabbit hole, if you decide to go on that journey. Here is the link to Sam's YT channel: www.youtube.com/@SamTompkinsUK
@redheadedneighbor10 ай бұрын
Thank you. I just went to Sam’s page and subscribed. His voice is beautiful. I definitely would like to explore more of his sound. Those two were Simon and Garfunkel like together. And RENs guitar was like a third voice. So excellent

I should watch your reaction. I watched it right after hi ren and i watched some reactions and i didn't understand what I was missing because everyone else liked it. I kept ren diving and I LOVE him and all his collabs. There's a couple songs i could give or take. I don't think it's that weird. Dunno. Dont care by now 😂. Thanks for your reaction!

I’m glad I’m not alone in missing out. It doesn’t really bother me to not like a song or even not like an artist. However, I absolutely hate missing out on something. I have had to revisit a number of artists and their music. I end up liking at least some. Bob Dylan for example. His writing is excellent much of his singing was hard to handle. Some of it stil is for me. Lol
@tribute196510 ай бұрын
It's not mandatory that you love every song. I suggest a different side of Rens music than you have reacted to so far. Ready For You, and Heretic are more like rock pop songs from 2 years ago. The Big Push Sweet Little Lady is just a nice bit of naughty fun. Ren is a cheeky bugger!!!! 🤣
@redheadedneighbor10 ай бұрын
Oh, I know, I’m sure I won’t love every song but so far (besides our rocky start) it has been such a rewarding journey. I love versatile artists. But there is no artist that I’m a huge fan of that I like everything they do.. so I have to be honest about that. I’m sure we will have the uncomfortable conversation one day that I find a song that I’m not a fan of… lol

@redheadedneighbor me too!!!! He has changed my musical life tbh. Here's a poem I wrote recently abt Ren. Sick Boi Ren, There once lived a Welsh boy named Ren, whose lethal gift to the world was his pen He could sing you a song Or just string you along but his lyrics and wit are my Zen He could have you in tears Raise a big smile to your ears hit you with poem Feed you Toblerone Renegades raise a glass n say cheers He eats meds like their red eminems Takes lessons from iconic gems The reggae it bumps My heart it just jumps It's Ren, and it's ten out of ten He can lift weights at the gym And oh man, he can sing His lungs they belt out with a roar His fans are all lads From young kids to old dads And the girls they get Giddy, I'm sure That falsetto is music 2 my ears Like crackers n cheese with my beers The lines are so sweet When he sings on the beat I raise up my glass and say cheers 🍻 With a pocket full of pain And a mess in Ren's brain He was just about ready to quit But the music lived on In his veins, like a song Thank God he still loves to spit I sit here alone while I write down this poem And my speakers they bounce with his beat We love you sick boi So keep rapping with joy Coz my musical life is complete 💙 Kev 2023
