A true masterpiece of song by Lovebites

[JFrancoDrums]

No matter how many times i watch this one im always amazed by the mood of the song, the overall composition, the gorgeous middle piece and the solo section that follows!!
One of my favorite Midori solos too and you can tell by her facial expressions she is feeling it!! 🤘😊 This band is just perfect for me!!

[marks]

I love this band too and like you I just can't get enough. Not only do they practise to perfection but they know how to write and arrange songs to an epic level.

[hiawatha.g]

How many true masterpieces are there in the history of rock? A dozen? Maybe twice that? Few rock groups have ever produced a masterpiece, and some of the greatest never managed it. Lovebites have given us several, and I would put this performance at the top of the list. Thank you for taking the suggestions and doing this.

[faintsmile]

Yes, it's so easy loving this band...As always, enjoyed your commentary. 🐺

[dg]

Hell yeah! Thank you so much for doing this one, I know I requested it among others! Love this F song and bands do not pull off performances like this today, that's for damn sure! The talent in this band is off the F charts! I recommend Shadowmaker MV or The Crusade live, which is an Ode to Maiden's Aces High. You just can't go wrong with these ladies. They've taken 80s metal, injected it with Plutonium, creating next generation metal. I like to call it NWOLHM...New Wave of Lovebites Heavy Metal. 🙂 Great reaction! 🤘

A Masterpiece that will stand the test of time.

[Greg-omhb]

They will sound even better when you learn their names.

LOVEBITES - A Frozen Serenade lyrics:
Crystal tears Falling from the skies
Veiling fears The emptiness inside
Time is just passing by
Killing me under the soft twilight

A frozen melody
Of doves and ravens dancing in melancholy
A distant memory
If only this snow could erase the pain
I'd wake up in a serenade

One life ends
And one life begins
Evanesce
To our origins

When I'm lost on my way
Lead my heart and guide me with your grace

A frozen melody
Of doves and ravens dancing in melancholy
A distant memory
If only this snow could erase the pain
I'd wake up in a serenade

Just like a dream, just like a bird
I'll keep on singing out
Even if my voice cannot reach you
Seasons may pass, but its beauty will never fade away
All living things are precious and irreplaceable
Just like a dream, just like a bird
I'll keep on singing out
Even if my voice cannot reach you
White butterflies are fluttering under the silver sky
If only I could wish to see you once more


lyrics: asami
music: asami & Mao
arrangement: LOVEBITES (miho, haruna, midori, miyako, asami) & Mao
album: Electric Pentagram 01/29/2020

A musical Masterclass right there. Including Asami's ballet training on show during the piano and acoustic segment, and Haruna's metronomic drumming plus Miho on bass tying it all altogether.
Next suggestion "Today is the Day" from the same 2021 concert. Sometimes overlooked, this is another gem.

[allenhuling]

I can only imagine the hours of practice that goes into playing these superbly written songs....but I so appreciate it!! Like you, I love what these ladies do and it seems I need to hear some every day to keep me 'right!'😀🤘

[Roy]

The part midori plays after the acoustic part always gives me goosebumps. You can feel the emotion in sound❤

[jprules]

There's Lovebites...and then there's LOVEBITES!!❤❤
Thanks for mentioning RacerX. I was there in 87-88 in LA watching them live. Totally thought of them when I first saw Lovebites. Bouillet is such an unrecognized monster. Saw his solo show pre-covid and he had been sick all day(apologized in advance if he throws up on anybody😂) and destroyed for an hour and a half.😮

Since Electric Pentagram came out in winter, Asami wanted a sad winter ballad, Asami wanted acoustic guitar on the track, Miyako recorded the acoustic guitar but Live, Midori has to play it because Miyako is busy on the piano 🤘
Lyrics: Asami
Music: Asami and Mao
Arrangement: LoveBites/Mao

Seems like we both had gremlins at work in our system today. The buggers! 😅
This is my favourite Lovebites song for oh so many reasons. One is, and it requires special attention, is what Haruna is doing in the last section when Asami comes in with her vocals. Not only the septuplets on the double kicks but what she is doing over top of that with the cymbal. On another level completely. 🤟

[Phoenix]

I realise that my comment is subjective, but in my opinion, this song is a masterpiece - and belongs in the list of the 100 greatest metal songs ever written. But having said that, I'd also put at least half a dozen other LOVEBITES songs in that same list.

[PaleHorseShabuShabu]

I knew this song was special when I first heard the studio version, but it wasn’t until I saw this live version that it skyrocketed to being my favorite LOVEBITES song. Midori’s solo is beautiful and fierce, just takes my breath away, and then Miyako joins her and they always sound great together.

You mentioned Racer X and I get that, but for some reason whenever I think of dual guitar solos, I think of Cacophony with Becker and Friedman. They weren’t around long, but they were the first duo I really heard where both guitarists were monster shredders.

Thank you for your reaction to LOVEBITES.
Keep LOVEBITES in your future.
I am pleased that you show respect for the amount of rehearsal and practice these girls put in every time.
In a magazine interview, Miyako, "It's nice to hear so many people praising the talent of our members, but we have worked so hard to get to where we are."
These women are unflinching and humble in everything they do.
They are also keen to research equipment.
I love LOVEBITES not only for their music, but also for their totality as such.

[csabareiber]

Miyako's riff with that Strat just kills me 🐺🤘LOVEBITES 🤘🐺
