    Hey Wolfpack, the next reaction on LOVEBITES will be the song "Winds Of Transylvania"! You can find the videos on which I recorded a reaction (published or not) in my "Reactions Recorded" playlist !
    Yesterday I published a video on the song "Carry Dawn" by the group DIO -Distraught Overlord-. If you don't know this song (or like it), I invite you to watch the video!
    Thanks, good video!

    Miyako a adapté la Revolution Etude de Frédéric CHOPIN pour l'intro et pareil pour la Symphonie du nouveau Monde d'Anton Dvorak à la fin. J" ai 71 ans et dans ma jeunesse j'ai parcouru l'Europe et vu les plus grands groupes (Iron Maiden, Nazareth, Megadeth, Metallica, Judas Priest, Motley Crue, etc) et avec tout le respect que je leur doit je peux dire que ces jeunes femmes forment le meilleur groupe de l'histoire du métal avec les 2 meilleures guitares jumelles

    Miyako wrote Swan Song, and said she used elements of Chopin and Dvorak's New World Symphony. Asami wrote the lyrics - she writes the majority of Lovebites Lyrics. Miho left for what she called 'personal' reasons about a year and a half after her father died - which seemed to hit her quite hard. She stayed with the band to record a song they were working on - Nameless Warrior. The band did the first live version of the song on their new BluRay *Knockin' at Heaven's Gate* , and recently released that Live concert video of Nameless Warrior as a promotional MV for the BluRay. They also just announced that they are playing the Prog Power Festival in the US next September! So they will probably be playing gigs in the US and EU next year. 🙂 🤘🐺🐺🐺🤘

    The Chopin intro is "Étude Op. 10, No. 12 in C minor", aka "Revolutionary Étude". You can hear parts of the étude in Miyako's ("Golden Touch") solo and the main riff. She also rearranged elements of Antonín Dvořák's "New World Symphony" and incorporated that into "Swan Song's" chorus. Midori ("Crazy Shredder") uses exclusively ESP guitars, primarily E-II Horizons with Floyd Roses. She has these in 2 colors, one purple and one black, each with a different tuning for different Studio and LIVE tracks. The next song you should check out is the one towards the end of this reaction where you stopped the video - "A Frozen Serenade" LIVE : ua-cam.com/video/Ae8pQVu-RN8/v-deo.html

    This song is the Miyako Show. Lead guitarist, pianist, and composer.
    There is no true word as to why Miho left. Different people, like myself, have different theories. All I can say is that if you follow Lovebites, and see what the sisterhood looks like now with Fami, something was amiss. The glowing happiness we see now wasn't there.

    • @mida_off

    I'll try to answer your questions.
    1. In LOVEBITES all the ladies (including new bassist Fami) can play the piano. Suffice it to say that the piano was the first instrument that all the ladies started playing. Midori (blonde) started playing piano at age TWO, Miho (bass) started playing piano at age FIVE, Miyako (brunette) started playing piano at age THREE, etc.
    2. Were you surprised that Midori (the blonde) changes guitars? During this concert, Midori used 3 guitars, Miyako (brunette) used 4 guitars. This is normal for musicians. Different guitars have different tunings.
    3. LOVEBITES often use piano in their concerts. It is not necessary to transport it to different cities during a concert Tour. A piano can be rented in any major city where the band is giving a concert.
    4. You watched TWO works: 'Revolutionary Etude' (F. Chopin) and 'Swan Song' (LOVEBITES). Why the ladies performed these two works together at the concert is a separate topic. There is too much to write to explain this.
    5.Miyako (brunette) is called "The Golden Touch" not only because she plays piano, keyboards and guitar well. She received this nickname because everything Miyako touches as a musician turns into “gold”. To make it more clear to you, Miyako is a musical genius and a talented composer. Miyako - Mozart of the 21st century. She wrote about 50% of the music for LOVEBITES.
    6. Sorry, but your joke about Miho (bass) was very unfortunate. You are being unfair to her. Listen to LOVEBITES with good headphones, not a phone headset. Then you will hear her bass. Miho didn't leave the band because she was bored.
    Miho is an experienced and excellent bass player. But she is a rather modest person. On stage, Miho stayed behind most of the time . She allowed Midori, Miyako and Asami (lead vocals) to receive most of the audience's attention and applause.
    To make it clearer for you..... if it weren’t for Miho, LOVEBITES would not exist. There would be no such band. LOVEBITES appeared precisely thanks to Miho's idea to create such a band. LOVEBITES is her 'dream band'. Miho shared her ideas with Haruna (drums). She invited Haruna (who had retired from music at that time) to join her and together they found the remaining members.
    Miho was the brains and leader of the band. Thanks to Miho's ideas and her vision of the development path, an unknown new band from Japan very quickly gained international recognition. The next year after the creation of the band, LOVEBITES already gave 3 concerts in London (2017)! Two years after the band's formation, LOVEBITES received the prestigious GOLDEN GODS award from Metal Hammer (London, June 2018). Etc. ...Etc.
    It was Miho who came up with the ideas: the musical concept (what kind of music the new band will play), the performance of songs in English, on stage in white dresses (which is not typical for metal bands and may not be accepted by fans of metal in the West, which Miho was primarily focused on when I created the band). Even the choice of Asami as a vocalist (who did not know what heavy metal was and was a performer of Soul, R&B, Jazz) was thanks to Miho.
    During her time in LOVEBITES (2016-2021), Miho wrote 23% of the songs (lyrics and music). Most of the band's thrash songs were written by Miho!
    There was a tragedy in Miho's personal life (August 2018), which greatly affected her . The consequences of this tragedy followed Miho for 3 years, until her departure from LOVEBITES in August 2021.
    I don't want to go into details (this is Miho's personal life). I can only recommend checking out the song “Journey to the Otherside”, which LOVEBITES performed at a concert in 2019. This song was written by Miho and while performing this song, Miho starts crying...
    For many months, the rest of the ladies and the LOVEBITES team tried to convince Miho to stay. But she left in the midst of the Covid-19 pandemic. This is a very short story about Miho. I could write a lot more, but the text is already very long. Please don't joke about Miho like that again. You don’t know a lot and such jokes towards Miho sound like an insult.
    Nothing personal. Just facts.

      The problem when you do humor is that it either makes or breaks. You can imagine that I didn't think that was why she left the band, it was a joke to bring up my serious question of why she left. Obviously if his departure is due to a tragic event, the joke would seem out of place, but at the time I'm filming I don't know the reason at all. I'm sorry if as a fan you took this as a lack of respect towards her, that was not the intention at all. If you saw my reaction to “Holy War”, I was highlighting her !vHaving been a bass player myself, I was totally in the same mindset of letting others shine. Thanks to her for creating and developing the band !
      Thanks for all the others informations !
      Let's love LOVEBITES hand in hand ! Peace and love 🐺🤘

      I can advise you, in addition to 'Journey to the Otherside' (LOVEBITES), to check out the new Music Video with Miho, called 'The Legacy Within' by CHAOS CONTROL (on YTube from August 23, 2023).
