Every time I think I've escaped the Ren rabbit hole, something like this pops up and pulls me back in. And I don't mind a bit. Outside of Ren's obvious talent, every one he works with is amazing as well.

[elaineross]

Ren is just unbelievably talented. Every genre just comes with ease to him

[rickbrind]

At 70 yrs old I keep coming back to these guys it's so refreshing to hear proper musical talent whatever genre they cover .

[brucew]

Ren’s talent knows no bounds. Love how the dog is loving it too.

[Bhonest-]

In the midst of the craze over Ren, deservedly, what gets lost is how great the whole band is

[i_choose_kindness_usually]

I’m not even low or sad right now; quite happy and content, in fact, but I just found myself exploding with tears listening to this song, the realization that Ren (and friends) know no bounds. I feel like with Ren especially, that I’m watching history being made, as if this is the origin of an artist of such caliber that he will join the ranks of the likes of The Beatles, Pink Floyd, Jimi Hendrix, Moby, Tupac, Cat Stevens, The Cure, etc. — I get that same euphoric feeling discovering music you can just feel changing you from the inside, out.
He is the inspiration and thought change our society desperately needs.

Has there ever been an international call for a reunion of a band that was never on a label? These guys have loads of the rare, and much sought after commodity, called chemistry.

[LittleMAC]

These 3 lads are fantastic.

I think a lot of people are starting to hear about the lead singer here, who is of course fantastic and I am a huge fan, but in this band there THREE fantastic musicians (in this vid at least, apologies to any band member not in the video - drummer???) and they all deserve recognition.

A great version of an already great song. Well done lads :)

[lokephoenix]

Ren is something else. A musical talent so powerful that he makes everyone around him amazing

[erich]

Ren has to be an alien. Amazing band.

[mukbangjeezus]

This kid got freakin talent. You know you found good when you get goosebumps to someone’s music.

[realfoodrefrigerator]

Born in 71. GenX and proud. Love love love the Police and Sting...Great tribute to Sting and Quentin Crisp. Love y'all from Htine Texas!

[MagdalenaShakti]

These three humans are experiencing the joy of making beauty!!! Thanks for sharing the beauty!!!❤

[vicb]

A generational talent. The harmonies are unbelievable.

[alloralou]

I’m in awe of the British ability to say “my dear” and it sounds like the sweetest thing or sounds like the biggest fu.

[JusFinnZalar]

Full lyrics!

I don't take coffee, I take tea, my dear
I like my toast done on one side
And you can hear it in my accent when I talk
I'm an Englishman in New York


See me walking down Fifth Avenue
A walking cane here by my side
I take it with me everywhere that I walk


I'm an Englishman in New York
Oh, I'm an alien, I'm a legal alien
I'm an Englishman in New York
Oh, I'm an alien, I'm a legal alien
I'm an Englishman in New York


If "manners maketh man" as some might say
He's the hero of the day
It takes a man to suffer ignorance and smile
Be yourself no matter what they say
Takes more than combat gear to make a man

Takes more than a license for a gun
Befriend your enemies, confront them when you can
A gentleman must walk but never run


Oh, I'm an alien, I'm a legal alien
I'm an Englishman in New York
Oh, I'm an alien, I'm a legal alien
I'm an Englishman in New York

Be yourself no matter what they say
Be yourself no matter what they say
Be yourself no matter what they say
Be yourself no matter what they say

Oh, I'm an alien, I'm a legal alien
I'm an Englishman in New York
Oh, I'm an alien, I'm a legal alien
I'm an Englishman in New York

[FunTheMentalymental]

Talent is undisputed, vibe is cool as hell, music is beyond… however I cant be the only one losing their shit anytime the puppy was on the screen!!! So adorable
