[@JoaoBosco-yd3ln]

Please don't hold back, there are male reactors that can't hold back, believe me we all cry with this epic play.

[@DavidMISAMISAMISACook]

Miho Miho Miho!

[@zoranbl1990]

Miyako is a gift from God himself to music industry. Making metal beautiful again with those golden hands of hers-love that girl so much

[@marting.h.9417]

The song before this one is a Chopin revolutionary etude, played by Miyako, and actually it’s supposed to be the intro to “Swan song”. For more piano and nice vocals by Asami, I suggest “Empty daydream”, “Epilogue”, “Edge of the world” and “Liar” (all live). Asami has a R&B, soul, jazz background, before joining Lovebites. Actually piano is Miyako’s first instrument, taking lessons since age 3, and started learning guitar at 18. They have never toured the USA; however, early last year, at USA NAMM 2020, Miyako and Midori perfomed but at separate booths; this was the second time for Miyako and the first one for Midori. Also the Japanese rock bands “Aldious” (all-female) and D_Drive performed at the same event. The latter is an excellent instrumental band and is sponsored by Marshall amplification. By the way, one of the best Lovebites presentations was at Wacken, 2018; unfortunately the full video is no longer available on KZbin but the sound and picture quality is astounding. However, recently some reactors are watching “Above the Black Sea”, as long as it’s not taken down.

[@lonniekramlich6241]

Miyako.........the dark haired guitar goddess, piano slayer, music composer & stealer of hearts, the girl who all she ever wanted to do, was make a living in music.....we have been blessed !!!❤🤗⚘😎🤘 P.S. I'm glad you love them as much as we do.....welcome to the, " Wolf Pack "

[@evilvolts]

to hear the others sing Miho and Miyako back Asami on Empty Daydream kzbin.info/www/bejne/oonLkKiDgp5noLc and Miyako, Miho, and Midori all back Asami in their live studio version of Burden of Time kzbin.info/www/bejne/aoCll5J9o52YnNU . they remind me of a heavier metal Vixen when they all sing.

[@whynotthinkwhynot-]

Burden of Time has the whole band singing in the chorus.

[@FrankyE1169]

Miyako can even play piano and guitar at the same time .... hahaha .... !!!! 😁 that is really a tough exercise! 😃 Midori (your favorite) can also play piano on a higher level, not on Miyako's level but very well, Asami as well, Miho probably as well, just as you can use it for songwriting. Miyako was a little excited about this white fake grand piano, optically nice, but the plastic keys !!!!. Victor Entertainment reacted and put a real black grand piano in place for the new concert (it's a lot more effort, especially for the live sound), you could say an exaggeration, but Miyako plays clearly at a high professional level, so I mean it has to be! Great Reaction

LOVEBITES - Swan Song lyrics: If this was the last day you could live on this earth Would you still go on, accusing someone for today It’s better to fail than not do anything at all It is not the length, but depth of life that counts Oh brave soldier Oh gallant warrior Valor to those who died in battle to Valhalla Believe what’s in your soul For death will come to all You shall rest peacefully in God’s Heaven Floating lotus You are so graceful Saintly and glorious Till the end of time Floating lotus You are so beautiful Sing me your sweet song The legend of the swan If you’ve never hoped, you’ve never been though despair Ignorance is bliss, it’s easier to not care You might think it’s meaningless to sacrifice a life Sometimes the life of one can save so many more Oh brave soldier Oh gallant warrior Valor to those who died in battle to Valhalla Believe what’s in your soul For death will come to all You shall rest peacefully in God’s Heaven Floating lotus You are so graceful Saintly and glorious Till the end of time Floating lotus You are so beautiful Sing me your sweet song The legend of the swan Floating lotus You are so graceful Saintly and glorious Till the end of time Floating lotus You are so beautiful Sing me your sweet song The legend of the swan ----- lyrics: asami music: miyako arrangement: LOVEBITES (miho, haruna, midori, miyako, asami)

Miyako does a piano solo of Chopin Revolutionary etude it leads into this song Miyako composed to go with it in the guitar solo you can hear part of the etude she played in the solo before swan song.

LOVEBITES is perfect, all songs are wonderful (specially this one), and you Anastasia, wtf, how beautiful you are!

[@hiufernando7340]

I'm someone who likes metal music for quite a long time. But this is the first time I really like metal music that is so beautiful, and that's from Lovebites. I've never been able to like a girl band before. Especially a metal band with a beautiful appearance and like a Sailor Moon. But Lovebites changed all that. I love them completely. Anyway, in my country, Indonesia 🇮🇩, Sailor Moon is also a pretty famous anime when I was little. Thank you very much for reacting to the song from Lovebites. Now i'm subscribe! I'm very enjoyed with your reaction, especially when you explain about the voice of the singer Lovebites. And by the way, Miyako, one of the guitarists with black hair, is also a classical piano master. Next song, try their song called "Edge of the world" Stay safe and keep on lovebitten!🤘

Right before they play Swan Song she does a beautiful piece by Shopan

[@CaffeineNightOwl]

in this concert the prelude to "swan song" was chopins revoluntionary etude played miyako. she is like a mucical genius, also main composer of lovebites. I love the classical influences. thank you so much for your great reaction.

[@nicolaspaquay]

I am also a big fan of Sailor Moon (the music in it 😍) So, if Lovebites were the Sailors, I think that should be : - Asami the singer as Sailor Moon - Miyako the black-haired guitarist as Sailor Mercury (the genius of the band) - MIdori the blond-haired guitarist as Sailor Jupiter because she's thunder 💚💚💚 ⚡⚡⚡ - Haruna the drummer as Sailor Mars because she's on fire 🔥🔥🔥 - Miho the bassist as Sailor Venus because she's commited to her mission (to make badass metal)

[@michaelafrancis1361]

Yes the singer, Asami, does have a background as a ballet dancer and she showcases some of her ballet chops in this song. Take a look at the end of the song when Miyako takes to the piano. The camera focuses, understandably, on Miyako but it's a bit of a shame because we only see a glimpse of Asami's closing performance where she dances elements of "The Dying Swan". This was the ballet piece first choreographed by Mikhail Fokine to the music of Camille Saint-Saens "The Swan (Le Cygne) for legendary ballerina Anna Pavlova in 1905. Pavlova performed the dance over 4,000 times in her career and it has since become incorporated into many interpretations of Tchaikovsky's "Swan Lake". We catch a glimpse of Asami expiring gracefully in front of the drums at the end of the song. It would have been nice to see the whole thing. I often think that Asami's dancing talents are frequently overlooked which I suppose you can understand given how they are often buried beneath the virtuosity of the music. Nevertheless they are an integral part of the Lovebites performance spectacle and I am excited to see the new live DVD coming out in September since it appears from the trailer that she gets a whole spotlighted dance sequence to show her beauty and grace.

[@DavidMISAMISAMISACook]

wow re-watched and WOW as you say a pity it was overshadowed

[@skoob64]

Miyako, a pianist for 28 years of her thirty-one years, a guitarist for 13 years. How good will she be when she has played guitar as long as the piano ? In an interview she called her Yamaha baby grand piano her best buddy and that it has made her who she is today.

[@TheCyberMantis]

Welcome to the wolfpack. You are hooked. The more you listen to Lovebites, the more you will love them. They are the BEST! Princess Asami did study ballet and dance. She is very graceful on stage. There is another video of this song, where princess Miyako plays a piano etude at the beginning. It's so good. Next, you should check out the song "EPILOGUE". It's very beautiful and emotional.

[@brandydynamite5877]

Everything Asami does is graceful, even when she's punching the air !!!

[@TheCyberMantis]

@@brandydynamite5877 Princess Asami is something special. No doubt about it.

[@evilvolts]

Yes Asami took Ballet

[@marcinpopawski8199]

The intro to this piece is Polish composer Fyderyk Chopin Revolutionary Etude playd by Miyako_ not exist in this uploading. Main core or inspiration of this masterpiece is New World Symphony by Czech composer Antonin Dvorak. Title, lyrics and movement of Asami on the stage is based on Swan Lake of Russian composer Pyotr Tchaykovski. All elements was composed and connected by Miyako Watanabe_black hair genius. Stay safe. Stay Lovebites.

[@gatograto]

Right. Lovebites is heavily influenced by classic music, not anime.

[@tsubasaozora7655]

hey hey, there you are again :)

[@hiawatha.g]

Yes, Asami studied ballet for two years in the U.S. Like all of them, she is a polymath--plays piano too. Also, yes, all but the drummer occasionally sing harmonies. Too bad you didn't get the version with the Chopin Etude as the prelude--though I guess it also preserves the surprise to the end. Miyako is a world-class classical pianist, as some of us noted in earlier comments. Since you are classical trained, it will be worth watching that clip on your own time even if you don't do a reaction!

[@ahodori2233]

Let me fix it a little. Asami began taking classical ballet lessons at the age of three, and after graduating from her high school, she briefly studied abroad in the United States to study jazz dance and hip-hop dance.

[@fastskipper777]

Asami studied ballet for around 13 years or more. Not just two years in the US.

[@wrob08]

I've only ever seen Miyako sing harmonies. The only thing I've seen the rest of them do are gang vocals, and usually only a few word shouts at that.

[@hiawatha.g]

[@rainerzufall42]

Where's the Chopin "Revolutionary Etude" intro? ;-)

[@soramimifan]

Thanks for your wonderful reaction! And you mentioned Sailor Moon!! You seem to understand the band more deeply even if you discovered it very recently. The bassist and the band leader, Miho mentioned Sailor Moon in some of the old interviews. When she decided to form a new band, she wanted it to be a band of all female members. She wanted it having elements of girl worriers such as Sailor Moon, which is her favorite anime as a child.

[@4nta2]

This piece contains elements of Chopin's scale. You should have listened through from Chopin Revolutionary Etude(Miyako plays piano solo).

[@gham5586]

Try “Empty Daydream “, live Tokyo 2019, you’ll witness Miyako’s piano skills and backup vocals along with Miho( bassist). Beautiful, haunting melody!

[@dino.mozardien]

@@DavidMISAMISAMISACook Miyako's also harmonizing Asami vocals in "Edge of the World" and "We the United" from the same show. Somehow during "We the United" unison guitar solos she still finds time to tuck her hair behind her ear

Great reaction. Amazing song by my favorite band. Miyako is an great guitarist and an amazing pianist. My favorite LoveBite. She wrote this song. Lyrics by Asami. Thank you for this reaction. “Edge of the world” is a great song. Also with piano.

[@hiawatha.g]

Re. the guitarists: first, they were hand-picked (mostly by Miho, the bassist and band founder) for musical capability first and foremost. How do we know? Because you could audition 50,000 beautiful girls for a band and still not find five this good. Second, that guitar technique is called "tapping" and was popularized by early metal guitarists like Eddie van Halen. Miyako is one of the world's best at it.

[@ckiemnstr345]

Sometimes I have to wonder if Miyako is secretly relieved that Aya got pregnant when she did. Sonic Lover Reckless was nice for what it was but the ladies definitely have something special with Lovebites.

[@dougporteous2474]

I agree with everything u said, LOVE BITES is the best power metal band that makes most western bands look like amateurs

[@beldin2987]

Ohhh .. the tapping rabbit hole 🤨The one i know who did it long before Van Halen, and who is also quite famous, was Steve Hackett from Genesis, but there were even others before him, only that (nearly) nobody knows them 😄

[@hiawatha.g]

@@beldin2987 Yes, van Halen is wrongly credited by many with"inventing" it, but actually it was used long before with acoustic guitars--flamenco guitarists in particular.

[@junoi7457]

In Japan, only a few top pianists are allowed perform in a hall of 1000 people. But Miyako had to play in front of more audience. From the beginning of the show she had been very nervous under the huge pressure. After finished playing Chopin, she was released from the pressure, but she remined that she had to play the piano solo at the ending again. She said in the audio commentary. 4:40 "Look, my face is almost dead." Asami answed. "Nothing has changed, Cool Beauty, Miyako"

Hello Anastasia. It is very interesting to hear you talking about the different vocal techniques. If you ever get to get a copy of this live show called "Five of a Kind", there is a behind the scenes before the concert. As they are preparing, Asami is doing some breathing exercise through a straw and I found that interesting. I guess it must be something she does or if she was taught that, I really don't know. As for the band coming to the US, we need more demand. If we get more a demand then they will be able to tour the US. I enjoy your reactions

[@Darth.Fluffy]

Your point about Asami raising her head during high notes is interesting because she will occasionally venture into "caterwaulling" territory. Particularly when she's singing an "a" sound. But when she says in that lower register...awesome.

[@zabriabubakar5982]

[@alekhidell]

Being at a loss for words is the default position for a Lovebites reaction, especially when they see just how talented Miyako is. She wrote the music and arranged it too. I suggest “Empty Daydream” as the best example of their vocal harmonies. There is an excellent version from Zepp Diver City, but 2019, not 2020. Finally, Asami was ballet trained prior to becoming a singer. Check out the trailer for their forthcoming “Heavy Metal Never Dies” DVD release, which shows her performing a small dance routine to the exquisite instrumental element of “A Frozen Seranade”.

[@Sabundy]

They have not yet toured the US. Most of these Japanese bands seem to tour Europe more, or at least start out touring Europe as it seems to be the larger and more dynamic market for metal these days. The US seems a lot more hip hop and pop focused now. But you are so right about the Japanese metal scene. It's ridiculously good. You should definitely visit Japan as soon as you can. But some Japanese bands you should definitely check out are Aldious. Try their song "we are". And for sure Nemophila....really anything by them.

[@beldin2987]

I found this PoV quite interesting, but am not sure how much is true on that and how much is in the end only the industrie. But of course in general symphonic/prog rock was never a big thing in the US. rockandrollgarage.com/when-guitarist-ritchie-blackmore-gave-his-opinion-about-queen/ “Because in America i’ve noticed they like the basic chord stuff, they like the Blues stuff, they like the three chord stuff, which it would be like a Stevie Ray Vaughan. With Queen you’ve have probably 25 chords and a lot of changes. I’ve noticed the American market doesn’t usually go for that. But i’m surprised that they made it so big over here (In United States) and for that was a nice release.”

[@taknothing4896]

@@beldin2987 Just a bit, ah, exaggerated I'd have to say. Yes, the blues has had a huge influence on American rock, but you can say the same about the UK (Led Zeppelin, anyone? Rolling Stones? etc etc). Stevie Ray Vaughn had a following, but not a huge one. Fleetwood Mac (blues version) moved to the US, took on Stevie Nicks, turned into an icky pop band and became enormous. Jefferson Airplane (fine psych band) turned into Jefferson Starship (icky pop band) and became enormous. So to make a point, the bands that get really enormous in the US tend to be a bit more on the icky pop side than the blues or 3-chord rock bands.

[@Sabundy]

@@beldin2987 well....I'm basing it on the trends and music tastes that seem to be predominant in the US these days. Particularly in the mainstream. And let's be bluntly honest.....it sure as hell isn't metal. And I would say even hard rock is out of the US mainstream. Outside of the big legacy bands.....what hard rock or metal band gets a lot of exposure or draws big crowds in the US? Come to think of it can you even name a single genuine rock star, or guitar hero from the US from the last decade....decade and a half? I can't. All you see and hear about when it comes to the US is hip hop, and pop (and the modern pop uses a lot of hip hop elements anyway). All the biggest Rock and Metal festivals are in Europe or elsewhere (Download, Wacken, Rock Am, Rock in Rio etc .), and the best bands these days are coming from places like Northern Europe, Japan etc...... Not saying they won't or shouldn't tour the US or anything like that. It's still a sizable market for heavy music. All I'm saying is that given current trends I'm not surprised that these Japanese bands are mostly heading over to Europe first to build a fan base. Seems like just more opportunities for them in that regard in Europe.

[@beldin2987]

@@Sabundy Yeah, i mean when i think about rock from the US its bands like Grateful Dead (saw them live 84) and Jefferson Airplane and stuff like that, and then somewhere in the 80s it also ends. In the late 90s i also heared a while Lana Lane but i have the feeling she is also unknown in her own country, since her live concerts were mostly from Japan .. lol. Oh .. of course there is also still heart, but there best time was in the end also in the 70s and 80s. And the worst of all is, that even pop singers that really can sing mostly these days only sing bland hip-hop songs where it seems they can't sing. Just look at 90s Mariah vs. what she did in the 2000s with Rainbow, where i stopped caring about her. If i now want to hear pop where somebody really sing great ballads and show all of her voice and emotion i listen to Morissette Amon. Or many people say that Ariana is so great, but to be honest, i only saw her once in a late night show showing what she can, but all of her songs i checked so far on KZbin are just boring trash. Even the "Don't dream its over" cover with Miley is better, but of course Miley slays her there 😄 Btw.

I would recommend Band Maid No God live. MISA'S Bass kicks you know what.

[@david_ii11]

If you like metal with classical-music influences you must listen to Unlucky Morpheus. Their singer has a near-operatic voice and they also have an excellent violinist. "Unending Sorceress" and the live version of "Angreifer" are great.

If you liked how they incorporated the piano definitely look into the song Edge of the World. It's fantastic! It was really fun watching how much you enjoyed this one.

Empty Daydream is the song you can hear the other bandmembers singing

[@GrayFox14]

Thanks for the reaction! It is advisable to watch the "Swan Song" together with "F.Chopin's Etude Op.10, No. 12". At the concert, these two compositions go one after the other and it makes a lot of sense, the Etude is a prelude to the Swan Song. In addition, the performance of a classical piece demonstrates Miyako's skill as a professional pianist. P.S.Before picking up the guitar for the first time (at the age of 18), Miyako played the piano for 15 years.🐺

Asami's singing style came from doing soul before moving to Love Bites.

AAAhh....LOVEBITES, they are just awesome, love your reactions and analysis, more , more, more.......and a little dusting of Floor and NW

If you'd like to see (hear) some great backing vocals and harmonies, definitely check out their live performance of Empty Daydream from 2019. It also has a great piano intro from Miyako, and is just a great performance all round. Here's the link: kzbin.info/www/bejne/oonLkKiDgp5noLc

In Empty Daydream, Miho and Miyako sings backing vocals and in Burden of Time from their studio live concert all three, except Haruna singing harmonies. Unfortunately, I think that video is taken down nowadays.

[@jotampa]

Ah, yes! Lifting the head to sing, that's the Lemmy Kilmister school of vocal technique! :-D Anyway, another great all-female Japanese hard rock/metal band is Band-Maid. Their bass player, Misa, is incredible, and the drummer is great as well.

[@jamesgreen5431]

Best harmony song is Empty Daydream, Bravehearted has rapid very long vocal passages one after another and I'd be curious you take on the vocal endurance that requires. Asami's voice is not typical metal and believe it or not some people are down on the band because of her voice.

[@bernardoesperanto3194]

Where is the Chopin intro??

[@david_ii11]

It is not necessary to hear Chopin's "Revolutionary" Etude before Swan Song, but if you listen to the Chopin and compare it to Miyako's guitar solo you can hear the similar chord progression.

[@neilonaniet]

You can hear the actual melody in the solo too.

[@もしかしてマホ-レ]

great reaction！👍 I think, Asami,s voice is another type, but I,m surely her voice is best much lovebitds sound！😣😊👍

[@johnro6659]

Miyako is an amazing musician but they all are really!

[@C64SX]

Lemmy sang with his head tilted back, nuff said.

vocalの”asami”は２歳からクラシックバレエをやっていましたが、 身長が低いことが理由で続けることができなかったとのことです。 それと、この”SWANSONG”や"GLORY TO THE WORLD"の曲の終わりの”quire”部は高音部も低音部も全部"asami"の声です。 是非、昨年発売された映像作品の ”LOVEBITES "FIVE OF A KIND - LIVE IN TOKYO 2020" Trailer” ttps://kzbin.info/www/bejne/pni4c4GBnqtlhZo や9/28発売の "LOVEBITES "RIDE FOR VENGEANCE TOUR 2021" Digest" ttps://kzbin.info/www/bejne/bn7bgZR5jNSdg9U を見て下さい Vocal "asami" has been playing classical ballet since he was 2 years old, but he couldn't continue because of his short stature. Also, the "quire" part at the end of the songs of "SWANSONG" and "GLORY TO THE WORLD" is the voice of "asami" in both the treble and bass parts. By all means, the video work "LOVEBITES" FIVE OF A KIND --LIVE IN TOKYO 2020 "Trailer" released last year ttps: //kzbin.info/www/bejne/pni4c4GBnqtlhZo And scheduled to be released on 9/28 "LOVEBITES" RIDE FOR VENGEANCE TOUR 2021 "Digest" ttps: //kzbin.info/www/bejne/bn7bgZR5jNSdg9U Please see
