Red Reacts To MIYAKO (from Lovebites) | Eagle Fly Free

[@boyzyu]

You have just witnessed the generational talent that's maestro Miyako. She has been classically-trained on the piano since the age of 3. She only picked up the guitar at the age of around 18 and she taught herself how to play with a "how-to" guide. Helloween's "Eagle Fly Free" is just 1 of 6 tracks from Miyako's debut piano EP "Étude Op.23" which contains her interpretation and reimagination of 6 famous metal/rock songs. Personally, "Eagle Fly Free" is not even her most complex piece in the EP. You can listen to all 6 tracks here on YT or go get her EP. Miyako mentioned that she wanted to showcase to the world how very closely related classical music is to metal.

My first thought is to wonder if you are familiar with the original Helloween performance of this song, which is what Miyako learned to perform their unsurpassed 'cover' with the full LOVEBITES band. This is Miyako's own unique arrangement for this song, never performed as solo piano previously. Since Helloween has associated management with LOVEBITES, they were sent an advance copy of her Solo Piano EP and Helloween band members have commented on their enjoyment of it. If you are not familiar with the original full band arrangement, it is quite impressive how she incorporated so much of the full band arrangement into what she alone performs on piano.

I saw her perform this and 5 other pieces at her recital in Tokyo. Trust me, in the auditorium it is even more impressive. She wore this dress and played a Steinway. Absolutely breathtaking. And no sheet music.

[@TheCyberMantis]

I really want to see her do more keyboard stuff in Lovebites. Like Jordan Rudess from Dream Theater.

[@ChadTheDragonLord]

Miyako is phenomenal. What a find she was for Miho to add her to Lovebites.

As you said "she make it looks effortless" ... but she actually put a lot of efforts in it. She's humble enough to show on her channel her work, rehearsal, learning curve - she recently did it for "La Campanella", a very hard piano piece, and she didn't hide the mistakes and difficulties. She's the exact opposite of who people think she is when they see her on stage at first: she's humble, funny, adorably geek and laugh a lot. The whole piano EP (I have a signed one) is great from start to finish - imagine Metallica "Battery" on piano solo!

[@fab1901]

That's right! Miyako is a STAR WARS geeks and an electric guitar and an effects unit geeks. When she's not on stage, Miyako has a cheerful and lighthearted conversation typical of Kansai people. She was just nervous because she had to play a lot of roles on stage. She also performed live while she was pregnant.

[@TheCyberMantis]

Miyako is gifted. She learns things quickly. She has a trained ear. I could struggle with a piece of music for weeks. Miyako could nail it in one day. And then improve on it. She's a rare talent.

[@fab1901]

​@@TheCyberMantis Long time no see! I think that's also correct.

As others have mentioned, its worth checking the cover of Eagle Fly Free by the full Lovebites band. Then replay the piano version and note how Miyako incorporates the guitar and bass solos, which is quite remarkable! I remember once thinking that people who were alive to see Mozart perform were lucky to witness such talent during their lifetime. We are now fortunate to live in the time of Miyako.

[@lonniekramlich6241]

There's five other songs on this EP, but there's no video. There is, however, a video of her playing " La Campanella " by Fanz Liszt as an intro to the LoveBites song " Lost In the Garden." 😏♥️🎙🎸🎹🥁😎🤘

[@marting.h.9417]

I really love when Miyako plays the piano.

[@1970Phoenix]

How can one person have so much talent. I suspect there might only be a dozen or so musicians who can shread a guitar like Miyako AND play the piano at this level.

[@TheCyberMantis]

Miyako clearly LOVES to practice. Myself, I am allergic to "practicing". It's frustrating, and I hate it. Miyako excels at it. She's gifted.

[@kielanuar213]

Queen Miyako did a golden cover song by her golden touch. Massive talent.👍🤘

[@repobob]

I hope you make Chell listen to it at work, I am pretty sure she will love it too

[@thesaturdaymorningcowboy4198]

Miyako is the Black Swan, a once-in-a-generation talent. We are fortunate to get to witness her doing her thing. I bought her CD of six piano interpretations of metal songs, and I listen to it at least a couple of times a week. When life is getting out of hand, this rights the ship for me.

[@03acerider]

There’s nothing that Miyako can’t do! So talented!❤️

[@Wesse57]

Miyako is one of the best musicians out there.

This piano arrangement is amazing. Lovebites is going to have a big year in 2024. 🤘🏼🐺🤘🏼

[@boyzyu]

Can't wait for the world tour to start

[@TheCyberMantis]

@@boyzyu I'm also excited for the Tokyo Garden Theater show. I won't be able to attend, but I am expecting a live-stream and a Blu-ray release! TGT is a larger venue: 8,000 seats. They are already selling tickets for it.

[@boyzyu]

@@TheCyberMantis Yes, absolutely ! Fingers crossed that there'll be a blu-ray for that show and/or any of the other concerts along the world tour (as long as the overseas venues and equipment are up to scratch) !

[@allenhuling598]

What a performer she is.....takes lots and lots of practice to make it look this effortless!!🤘

[@mamoru1412]

In November 2023, Miyako gave two solo concerts in Tokyo. Miyako performed classical works and covers of rock band songs on the piano

[@DavidMISAMISAMISACook]

Miyako Miyako Miyako!

[@susanfitzsimons2384]

I always say Miyako is better on piano than guitar (IMHO) BUT she will always either inspire you to try harder or intimidate you into giving up LOL. Her piano LP has 6 great metal songs that she has reworked into great piano pieces that are amazing. She is also doing piano recitals in Japan later in 2024 from that LP and likely other works her genius brain has produced in the meantime. Her YT channel is a riot as she is such a music gear nerd, a Star Wars fangirl, and overall a really funny person that her stoic on stage persona belies.
