What makes Lovebites so great compared to other bands is the solo skill that Midori and Miyako play alone, and the amazing perfection of "synchronization without a slight deviation" when the two perform double solos at the same time. .. And the extraordinary speed and beauty of the melody line when doing that, and the always positive lyrics. A heavy metal band played by five girls ... Everything is abnormal. ラブバイツが他のバンドと比べて凄いのは、ミドリとミヤコが単独で演奏するソロのスキルと、その２人が同時にダブルソロを奏でた時の「僅かな狂いも無いシンクロ」の驚異的な完璧さ。 そして、それを行う時の異常なスピードとメロディーラインの美しさと、常にポジティブな歌詞。 それを５人の女の子が演奏するヘビーメタルバンド…。 何もかもが異常です。
This song along with we the united. I run e youth club and every so often I'll play these songs to the kids, ranging from 8-16 years. I use them as motivation and confidence builder. There are a lot of reasons to be grateful to Lovebites for I my opinion.
GMG - Wow, waxing philosophical today😉👍. I LOVE this song! One of Midori's best solos, and such a positive and uplifting message. This is EXACTLY who these women are - Lone Wolves, trying to bring back the classic Metal sound - and infuse it with their own Talent, Sensibilities, and Perspective. That's why their spirit animal, the Wolf, appears on all Lovebites releases' artwork. Also explains the 'Wolfpack'. Man, do we need a new bass player, lest people forget just how Phenomenal this band is. There are lots of J-Metal/Rock bands that I love, but Lovebites is on Another Level. They just F-ing BRING IT, song after song, tour after tour. Proud Wolf! 🤘🐺🤘
Hell Yeah, Patrick! Some days ya just wake up and can just really FEEL the messages being spoken in the songs we listen to. This was one of those days indeed!
This was my introduction to the band. Immediately I thought...How? Could I have missed them? Have they been sent by the Metal Gods to save me from music mediocrity. 🐺
When I first discovered them, it was "Holy Way", "Rising", and "When Destinies Align". That's all I needed to know... I had a new favorite band. Wolfpack united!
haruna's double bass kick in the intro is incredible. more great lyrics by asami - even though they were written a couple of years before miho's departure i thought they fit that situation well. rise again though you're broken and scarred you can choose not to lose you can build it again. waiting for LOVEBITES 2.0
I sent this exact line in a message to the band after Miho's departure with the hope it would inspire them in the same way it has inspired us - to keep going when the going gets tough.
I can still recall when this just barely came out there was a lot of negative crap coming out of fools mouth, claiming they were a gimmick, fake, and bogus band all lip sync and air guitar band, and the real band was a male band in the back jamming out. A lot of jerks just couldn't fathom the concept of gorgeous women could play like this, the refuse to believe they were the real thing. That is one of the reason why some of us who fell in love with Lovebites since the debuted back in 2017 began say "They are the real deal" to make it clear to these morons who couldn't believe it. I followed Lovebites JP on all platforms and began asking them to release some live footage to shut down all the disbelief and negative garbage from the trolls. After the third MV with is this one they began to post live footage from Wacken and Bloodstock as well as some songs from the Battle in the East shows, and guess what it worked like a charm. I love these beautiful ladies and will defend them however way I can and I really don't care how much hate I get from idiots and reactors I get so long as I put a stop to their negative garbage. I have done it and will continue to do it, put up or shut up
I'm with ya, Sal! Keep fighting the fight and those morons may one day realize how moronic they are. If not, it's THEIR loss, not ours! We know how much they rock and get to enjoy their music every day!
When I first found them, I couldn't believe they were real. They were too good. The songs were too perfect. I researched them, and once I learned about their backgrounds, it all made sense. They are "The Dream Team". Except now we have no bass player. So everything was not as perfect as we thought it was. Every super successful band in history has had line-up changes. Lovebites is no exception.
LOVEBITES - Rising lyrics: Failure or pride? The fear deep inside Success doesn't come with a few empty tries Fortune and fame, seem easy to claim But those who've succeeded defeated the pain Why give up on a life that you love? Play the game with no shame till the very end RISE AGAIN - though you're broken and scarred... You can choose, not to lose, you can build it again! DON'T LET GO - of what's deep in your heart You are free to fly, go and change your destiny! Too late to change? The past will remain But it's up to you to decide on a name Glory is not what miracles brought The path you have taken will lead you the way Why give up on a life that you love? Play the game with no shame till the very end LIVE AGAIN - with the vows in your heart Even if you get lost in the darkest of nights DON'T FORGET - that you've made it this far Show your scars with pride and believe your history... Sometimes we can't see the light anywhere Sometimes we don't have our luck in the air Almost like we've been left by ourselves I'm alone, you're alone, somewhere in the world But open your arms, look up and you will see an endless blue sky l believe, you believe, we will live out today So it leads to tomorrow! RISE AGAIN - though you're broken and scarred You can choose, not to lose, you can build it again DON'T LET GO - of what's deep in your heart You are free to fly, rise above your fate! LIVE AGAIN - with the vows in your heart Even if you get lost in the darkest of nights DON'T FORGET - that you've made it this far You are free to fly, go and change your destiny! ----- lyrics: asami music: miyako arrangement: LOVEBITES (miho, haruna, midori, miyako, asami)
Love this song a lot! I rank it at #4 in my list of most favorite Lovebites songs, only behind A Frozen Serenade, Break the Wall, and The Hammer of Wrath. The middle part is awesome with Asami's vocals and Miyako's piano. The double kick drumming by Haruna is relentlessly good, and Miho's bass can be clearly heard. The message in the lyrics is powerful and inspiring. But the best part is the epic guitar solos towards the end. Everything combined makes this is one of their best pieces of work.
Their lyrics are awesome and their positivity goes well along their image and sound!! It's a win all around!! and as someone who grew up on bands like Slipknot it's actually refreshing to not have angry lyrics all the time!! 😀 Musically what can i say, it's Lovebites. This band is so good, every song feels like it was crafted to perfection!! And we even get a little bit of piano!! Haruna!! 😍🥁✨🎶
Thanks! I appreciate that. I've been around long enough in life to not worry about haters. After all, even negative comments are still interaction as far as the algorithm sees. :)
Nice one! It's worth checking the live version of Rising (from 5 of a Kind DVD ), which is even better than the MV in my opinion. Miyako, with guitar slung behind her back, does that lightning transition back from the piano in the same time frame as heard here - it is a joy to behold. And of course M&M execute the guitar duel flawlessly. We really don't mind if you react to the same song twice !
