Nothing Ren does is like another it is all a different vibe, He said Toblerone it is a Swiss chocolate bar shaped like mountains, upright triangles absolutely delicious! Trainers are what sneakers are called in the UK man. Hallelujah is a song By Leonard Cohen. Bleak means very dark and cold. He beatboxes on the last verse and at the end! Brilliant!!!!

Man, I have heard many reactions to this track and yours is the best. You picked up him moving on from completing the levels. Many reactors pick up personal trainer/trainers on my feet (some miss it). You are the first I have heard who pointed out sole/soul in my bowl. Yes he was born in 1990. Jesse Owens won four gold medals in the 1936 Berlin Olympics, greatly embarrassing Adolf Hitler who said that black people were inferior. He then mentioned Leonard Cohen. Owens and Cohen were track stars in two different ways. Owens on the athletics track and Cohen on the record tracks. Yes, he did the beat boxing himself. Loved your reaction !

Mary Shelley was so young when she wrote Frankenstein, aka The Modern Prometheus . Fun facts: in character as the proto goth she lost her virginity to Percy Bysse Shelley (the poet, later her husband) at 16 years old on her mother's grave. Further to her legend it is said that she learned to write her name by tracing 'Mary' on her mother's headstone (her mum died from complications in birthing her)

I feel like most of his songs have a small reference to his other songs too. The pendulum was also in the speech after “hi Ren”.

Yes that's him beat boxing!

They are a famous acapella group and most people who react to them start with that song. I see you reacted to 'Home Free", another awesome group.

Bleak is the word. Streets can be bleak, but bleak is the place that I rose to my feet. Best version of Hallelujah is Jeff Buckley’s haunting rendition circa 1994. Trainers are sneakers in the UK. Best line is alpha, beta, delta I’ll help you into the fallout shelter because alpha and beta particles emit from nuclear explosions and you’d need to find a secured site to not be exposed to them in a nuke war.

'Sole in my bowel when I eat,' is a fish. ( i.e. Dover Sole.) Trainers are what we in the UK you Americans call sneakers.

Having watched the entire video, I highly recommend that you pull up the lyrics next time. You got so many words wrong, never mind their meaning. :) Jesse Owens is one of the most famous athletes of all-time! He was black and ran in front of Hitler at the 1936 Berlin Olympics, winning 4 gold medals, in the sprints, sprint relay and long jump, thwarting Hitlers German team of supposed 'Aryan supermen' and undermining Nazi ideas of a master reace. Hence Ren's line, my mind is running Jesse Owens. Leonard Cohen is a famous singer-songwriter. He wrote the song "Hallelujah", which has been covered by many artists since. Despite it's title, it's not a religious song but rather a look at the light and dark inherent in the human condition. It has themes which correspond to some of those in Hi Ren. All of which leads to Ren's line "Hallelujah Leonard Cohen". :)
