I’ve flown 7000 miles to be at their first show in 2 years, in Tokyo on Sunday. I arrived only hours ago. You can’t believe how respectfully thousands of male fans treat these ladies. Given that they are the best artists ever to perform in a male dominated musical genre, there is not a hint of misogyny. They are respected for what they are. Talented musicians who also happen to be beautiful. In that order.
Asami (vocals/lyricist) is all about positivity. She struggled too - she studied ballet for 16 years, and went to the US for a year and studied modern and hip hop dance. Then learned that @ 4'10" she was considered too short to be a dancer. So, she became a R&B lounge singer until she auditioned for Lovebites and discovered she had a fantastic Metal Voice. I think it taught her to never give up and keep fighting until you realize your dreams, even if you have to change them along the way. 🤘🐺🤘
the more that you see and hear them - the more you will realize that they are by far the most amazing band of women to ever exist. no one else comes even close and you won't be able to get enough
Had a really long day at work today, your reaction just made it a 100% better! Your enthusiasm to "just had to get this video done" was awesome! You getting so stoked to do a Lovebites reaction is absolutely WONDERFUL! This song is an absolute Masterpiece and yes, multiple songs in one with all the changeups. Another masterpiece worth doing is A Frozen Serenade live ua-cam.com/video/Ae8pQVu-RN8/v-deo.html. Regardless, look very forward to your next Lovebites reaction! 🤘
Some people say that they're angels who came to planet Earth in order to save metal. Others say that they're breaking the walls of stereotypes in the metal scene. No question that this is a truly masterpiece with a powerful message.
I believe in angels.... and I really believe Lovebites are angels, sending messages of love and positive messages to the people thru heavy metal music...
This is an absolute masterpiece of a song by them. Asami is freaking phenomenal in this one. Her voice so beautiful and so powerful all at the same time. Just a spectacular performance. And I haven't even mentioned how great Miyako is too with the piano and the guitar solo.
Yes this is mega masterpiece of this mega band and motto of Ladies"We are here not to be cute We are here to be heavy" the best band regardless the sex and genre of music ever. Great reaction.
The blonde guitarist Midori is the epitome of strength in more ways that one. In addition to being one of the best guitarists in the world today, she is also a championship body builder! She placed as high as second in a major competition just a few months ago!
My good lady,as a 60 yr old male, I understand your message 👍🐺 UK here great review of a great song keep going & enjoy the Lovebites journey it will inspire & build your confidence they are just simply put amazing & they rock 🤘 cheers 👍🎸🎤🥁🎹🎶🐺
Great reaction. How do you like the fact that the best band in the metal history happens to be women in high heels. Asami the singer even jumped off the platform with her skinny heels without breaking her ankles at the end of the last song before the encore, Holy War live 2021 ua-cam.com/video/2WEkVd5JrFI/v-deo.html. The dark haired guitarist Miyako was four month pregnant that time. Tough woman. I think you have reacted to their most beautiful progressive A Frozen Serenade ua-cam.com/video/Ae8pQVu-RN8/v-deo.html. Try it if not. You'll love their latest MV with new bassist Fami, Stand and Deliver (Shoot'em Down) ua-cam.com/video/4ImGA7cPyrs/v-deo.html. This is truly fun stuff. They are having fun and playing around with their casual street clothe while studio recording. Enjoy!!
Thanks for the reaction! Please, include in your plans to check out these LOVEBITES songs: - "Bravehearted" ("Daughters of the Dawn-Live in Tokyo 2019") - "Epilogue" ("Daughters of the Dawn-Live in Tokyo 2019") - "Empty Daydream" ("Daughters of the Dawn-Live in Tokyo 2019") - "A Frozen Serenade" ( "Heavy Metal Never Dies - Live in Tokyo 2021") I'm sure you will like them as well.👍
People say they should drop the white dresses, but I disagree. Heavy Metal in white is a strong message. It's the Metal of the defenders and protectors, fathers and mothers, the shields of the world. Lovebites sing about soldiers not dying in vain, to face uncertainty with courage, to love yourself. Metal doesn't have to be always destructive to sound like Metal and they're showing it🤘🐺🤘
Nice reaction. Each time I watch their videos or listen to their albums make my days a whole lot better. I was a bit disappointed by most of my favorite classic metal groups new material until I found this amazing group. These ladies create great music and song lyrics. Also they look and amazing performing live on stage. Any song you react to is a good choice. They don't have any songs I don't like. Peace and Lovebites!
Lovebites doesn't often take their collective foot off the throttle, but when they do, they create a magic. I kinda wish they did the whole song in ballad mode (it's a nice change of pace), but this is still great. I love this band! So far each of their albums (besides their debut EP) has started with sequential letters of the alphabet....when they get to Z, I hope they don't stop and just start the alphabet over again and keep on putting out stellar albums. Cheers!
Thank you for understanding what LOVEBITES puts into the lyrics. I really enjoyed hearing your interpretation and am very happy. I was also impressed by their understanding and interpretation of their costumes. The girls will perform a two-hour live concert while wearing high heels. LOVEBITES' lyrics can encourage, uplift, make people look at themselves anew, and make them feel positive. And classical pianist Miyako (G-Piano, black hair) draws inspiration from classical music when composing, fuses metal and classical music, and includes one song per album. Thank you for your continued support of LOVEBITES.
Loved your last three reactions. I am 78, a diehard hardcore metalhead, Luckily I discovered Lovebites in November 2017. I must have heard/watched videos of "Edge of the World", "Epilogue" and "Empty Daydream" dozens of times but I still cry every time. Never done that before in my life..
Hi Debbie.. Welcome back. So glad you came back to Lovebites.. 3 down, 50 odd to go, and they are all like this.. Don't apologise about the 'preacy section in the middle' It is so refreshing in this day and age to hear someone talk about femininity as it should be.. Beautiful, classy and equal.. Looking forward to your next lovebites song.. Rising live ua-cam.com/video/6nci8KtXJPk/v-deo.html and or Frozen serenade live ua-cam.com/video/Ae8pQVu-RN8/v-deo.html Two more masterpieces by the goddesses in white.. Best wishes from France
The feminine beauty of the ladies of Lovebites is immediately apparent to anybody who first sees them. They not only embrace their femininity... they weaponise it; turn it into an elemental force of nature. This is a quite conscious decision on behalf of the band members who have repeatedly stated their intention is to show that they can rock as hard as any man and still be elegant, beautiful women. The real driving force of this band, however, is not so much their obvious beauty but their formidable collective intellect married to their hard working determination. Many people call them "talented" but this is more than just talent. The world is full of talented people who never rise above the level of mediocrity. To produce the quantity and quality of these ladies' musical output (over 60 extraordinary songs) requires more than just some innate talent; it needs genius. My favourite adage is that talent does what it can but genius does what it must. The new album is remarkable and the fact that they came up with it while not only looking for a new bass player but also, in the case of the main songwriter and the main lyricist, whilst raising small children is quite frankly mind boggling. The sheer brilliance, hard work and steely determination is what raises this band to the level of a musical phenomenon.
I love them. I love them so much! My favorite band in the world. Right there with Nightwish, who I love also, each in their own way. I got to see Nightwish live. I have to find a way to see Lovebites live, within the next year or two. Might have to be a trip to Japan. They're among the most talented musicians I've ever seen all collected on one stage, again, similar to Nightwish. You'll find that their lyrics are always positive. They wanted to go against what is normally thought of with metal, while still going hard. This is such a beautiful song, bot the beginning and the lyrics and intensity at the end. If you explore them more, it's a pretty big rabbit hole, as Nightwish is. They have a lot of different types of songs. They're always coming at you pretty hard, musically, but there's a good deal of variety. There's a couple other songs similar in some ways to this one that I'd recommend: Frozen Serenade and Swan Song (with the Chopin intro). Both masterpieces, like this one. If you want to go hard, they've got that. Break the Wall, live from Zepp, Set the World on Fire and Thunder Vengeance, live from Zepp, are favorites there. All of the "E" songs are amazing, so like this one, there is Empty Daydream (a favorite of mine - vocal harmonies!) and Epilogue. There's more I leave out: Hammer of Wrath, We the United, Raise Some Hell. So many others. They have a couple of new songs from their latest albums. A new video there, but no live performances yet.
Their previous live concert release, "Daughters of the Dawn," has a slightly different arrangement of this song. There's a bit more guitar in the intro along with the piano and Miyako, the brunette guitarist and pianist, does some backing vocals toward the end. I much prefer this arrangement as it sounds cleaner to my ears. Great song, great performance, it's Asami at the height of her powers and that means greatness.
Has there ever been such a beautiful, positive, and powerful heavy metal song with such a powerful message? All members of Love Bites are intelligent, kind, and humble. Live, this song is followed by the last song, 'We the united', which is a terrifyingly moving finale! 過去にこんなにも美しくてポジティブでメッセージ性が強く、人を感動させられるヘビーメタルソングが有っただろうか？ ラブバイツのメンバーは全員が知的で他人に優しく、謙虚な性格です。 ライブでは、この曲の後にラストソングの「We the united」が続きますが、それは恐ろしく感動的なフィナーレを飾っています！
Don't apologise for saying the truth, we are different but one would be nothing with out the other,. That aside I think this is a fantastic song that really shows just how good Asami's vocals are, this was the second to last song of the concert and was followed up by We the united which I'd highly recommend for the ultimate lift. Probably the best end to a concert I've seen ever.
Thanks for more LOVEBITES! I find it encouraging when others grasp the 'message' with the musical energy in support. Complete compositions. Every song is a worthy suggestion, however I suggest completing this encore first. Edge of the world" cuts at the end because they don't stop before the next, final song of a 1hr & 45min show, "We The United" [cc] lyrics continue Asami's 'message'. In 2019 "Edge > United" closed the 80min main set. 2020 - closed the show. ua-cam.com/video/pdXVx-0V0ew/v-deo.html The playlist is to include their final sharing with the audience & traditional group-bow before exiting the stage. Thanks for sharing your affirming 'reaction'. 🐺
I already know how awesome this band is. I just love watching others discover them too. I suggest Frozen Serenade (live 2021) ua-cam.com/video/sEjN7dAh4ok/v-deo.html should be a contender for what to see next. 🤘🤘🤘🤘🤘🤘
If you want positivity, you found the right band. I'm a vet with PTSD and they have saved my life on more than one occasion. They are truly a rare gem in today's music world. The fact that they can play such awesome, positive music while dressed as princesses just makes it all the better; it proves you don't have to look like a troll living under a bridge to rock out. The sad thing is, there are those that don't agree with that. They think that a band must wear leather, denim, spandex, etc to make metal. How you dress is not a measure of your talent and thinking it does just shows how superficial and stupid some people are.
Nice to see that someone other than myself gets emtionally affected, me myself can not see Our ladies without tears start rolling, somehow they strikes a hearthstring deep down in my body, especially Miyako for some reason. I am 63 y old Swedish guy and do not usually cry to music, ( only occasionally)..🙃 Miyako ( darkhaired gitarplayer and Fami bassplayer are a little bit longer, 5"2' / 5"3' somewhere, as far as I know... I like your reacvtions to the Lovebites songs you have done so far, all three E - song are very emotional, Good Luck.. With much love from Sweden.. ❤
It is not *A* song, it is *THE* song. Awesome reactions of yours, and *awesome words of yours on femininity.* (I am a man, by the way.) I hope that all women shine their own lights because they come to know _who_ they are and that they are _unique_ . So do Lovebites, and so do you. 😲 😊👍👌🤘
Glorious Lovebites, that's 1 of their precious masterpiece songs. Metal band play heavier intense stuff with bright appearance and good massage lyrics..👍👍🤘🤘
Guess you enjoyed that Debbie! All of them are complete virtuoso's and prodigies. Many hours of study and practice to reach this level. Midori and Miyako seem to be joined by some telepathy as their duo's and fret work are always on point and in sync. The drummer Haruna is a gorgeous pocket rocket and their new bass player Miho is a dream with her supporting phrases. Asami...There are no words. Great reaction and final words Debbie. Watch your heart!! Stay safe.
Great reaction Question Queens, very emotional !!!! Keep up with your Lovebites journey!!! Asami? The One & Only Voice!!! She puts everything into every song. She said in an interview that she always sings as if it’s the last time she ever will. She is a power-house, with a lot of vocal stamina, and one of the best lead-singer & front-women in the Metal scene these days!! And she writes most of the lyrics ......... and she commands the crowd, even without saying a word!

. Great reaction as always, and being that is international women's day there is one lady that you have not done yet and most definitely need to check out because she has revolutionized the way somebody does their job as a front lead singer. Her name is Lzzy Hale and she is the lead singer of the band halestorm and and has a voice that is one for the ages and we'll go down in rock history and music history as simply won't the best to ever do it. PLEASE REACT TO "REBEL" BY LZZY HALE AND BEFORE YOU SAY IT OR IF YOU'VE NOTICED IT BY NOW, HER NAME IS SPELLED "LZZY" WHICH WAS A NICKNAME GIVEN TO HER BY A FAN OF EARLY ON IN THEIR CAREER AND SHE DECIDED TO STAY WITH IT
the name of band Lovebites is a tribute to the song Lovebites by Halestorm, the two sang together at Download Festival UK 2019 ua-cam.com/video/_J2uiUUfueA/v-deo.html
Did you see when Lzzy Hale came onstage during The Warning concert and gave Dany her Guitar? that was amazing as are The Warning another power trio of females from Mexico.
It is almost embarrassimg - some old Rocker not long ago stated "Rock is dead". While all these Japanese rock and metal bands breathe the classic vibe we old metal heads were searching for years and combine that with fresh, unique elements. Oh yeah, and a good part of all of this is all female bands, that kick ass the serious way. I love it!
I enjoy watching you react to LOVEBITES. Try RAISE SOME HELL, next - ua-cam.com/video/zamSQD0JUFk/v-deo.html Speaking of female empowerment, watch HANABIE (“Ha-Na-Bi-Eh”) do WE LOVE SWEETS - ua-cam.com/video/G18yyvPCiTM/v-deo.html
At this live, after this song, "We the united" was sung as the last song of the live. It's such an emotional finale that you'll be left speechless. このライブでは、この歌の後に、ライブのラストソングとして「We the united」が歌われました。 それはとても感動的なフィナーレで、きっと言葉を失うでしょう。
Some of the guitar sounds in the middle of the song reminded me of the band "The Gathering". With singer Anneke van Giersbergen they were what gave Floor Jansen the idea to become a metal singer. Please have a look at The Gathering: "Strange Machines" ua-cam.com/video/1HUMwinV2AQ/v-deo.html
But, you don't have to dress like that and break your back wearing those heels to be "feminine" either, I certainly hope that it's ALL of theirs choice to dress up and not the record label insisting on it as a gimmick to promote. ❤ & support them.
I would prefer the rhetoric regarding empowerment etc be left somewhere else. What you speak of has no place in Eastern countries. For me all I see is accomplished musicians, gender has never been an issue with me in any genre with the likes of Khatia Buniatshivili ( Georgian), Julia Lezhneva (russian), My Tam ( Vietnamese) , Lala Hsu ( Taiwanese) , Yuko Suzuhana ( Japanese) , Sbruk ( Armenian), Geta Burlacu ( Moldovan) and the list goes on, all of which I listen to and not to forget the first all female metal band Girl school ( UK). I would go as far to say such topics never crossed their mind. However, You are entitled to your thoughts and I respect that 😊. Great reaction by the way and apologies for sharing my enlightenment 😎✌️
I’ve flown 7000 miles to be at their first show in 2 years, in Tokyo on Sunday. I arrived only hours ago. You can’t believe how respectfully thousands of male fans treat these ladies. Given that they are the best artists ever to perform in a male dominated musical genre, there is not a hint of misogyny. They are respected for what they are. Talented musicians who also happen to be beautiful. In that order.
Asami (vocals/lyricist) is all about positivity. She struggled too - she studied ballet for 16 years, and went to the US for a year and studied modern and hip hop dance. Then learned that @ 4'10" she was considered too short to be a dancer. So, she became a R&B lounge singer until she auditioned for Lovebites and discovered she had a fantastic Metal Voice. I think it taught her to never give up and keep fighting until you realize your dreams, even if you have to change them along the way. 🤘🐺🤘
To think that before Lovebites, Asami was a backup singer ...what a waste !!!
Old British metalhead here, these Ladies are without doubt the best out there, 100% agree with your opinion.
Thanks for your reaction , Lovebites other Level of Musicians .
the more that you see and hear them - the more you will realize that they are by far the most amazing band of women to ever exist. no one else comes even close and you won't be able to get enough
The Divine Feminine. Lovebites embody it as no band ever has. You nailed it.
Welcome to the wolfpack of Lovebites fans. Your reaction is exactly how I felt the first time I heard this song.
Asami's lyrics always have an uplifting message. And the Lady's are the queen's of elegant, kick a$$ Metal !! ❤️🎙🎸🎹🥁😎🤘
That's why we men love them. Not just because they beautiful, but they have a power.
I love their skills. I love their energy. I love their music compositions. I love their beauty. I loved your reaction. Nuff said.
this has to be one of the best reactions to lovebites ever. enjoyed it a lot. and I liked your wise true "preachy" words too. this band has no peer.
Thank you so very much 💙
Had a really long day at work today, your reaction just made it a 100% better! Your enthusiasm to "just had to get this video done" was awesome! You getting so stoked to do a Lovebites reaction is absolutely WONDERFUL! This song is an absolute Masterpiece and yes, multiple songs in one with all the changeups. Another masterpiece worth doing is A Frozen Serenade live ua-cam.com/video/Ae8pQVu-RN8/v-deo.html. Regardless, look very forward to your next Lovebites reaction! 🤘
Saved! So happy to have you here with me 💙
Some people say that they're angels who came to planet Earth in order to save metal. Others say that they're breaking the walls of stereotypes in the metal scene. No question that this is a truly masterpiece with a powerful message.
I believe in angels.... and I really believe Lovebites are angels, sending messages of love and positive messages to the people thru heavy metal music...
This is an absolute masterpiece of a song by them. Asami is freaking phenomenal in this one. Her voice so beautiful and so powerful all at the same time. Just a spectacular performance. And I haven't even mentioned how great Miyako is too with the piano and the guitar solo.
LOVEBITES have strengthen your heart literally and figuratively.
Yes this is mega masterpiece of this mega band and motto of Ladies"We are here not to be cute We are here to be heavy" the best band regardless the sex and genre of music ever. Great reaction.
The blonde guitarist Midori is the epitome of strength in more ways that one. In addition to being one of the best guitarists in the world today, she is also a championship body builder! She placed as high as second in a major competition just a few months ago!
Behold, the positive power of Lovebites!😊
Frozen serenade is next..as epic as this
Great reaction to an epic song and you preach on girl!
💙
love this band so much. spectacular stage presence, great song !
My good lady,as a 60 yr old male, I understand your message 👍🐺 UK here great review of a great song keep going & enjoy the Lovebites journey it will inspire & build your confidence they are just simply put amazing & they rock 🤘 cheers 👍🎸🎤🥁🎹🎶🐺
Masterpiece.
Great reaction. How do you like the fact that the best band in the metal history happens to be women in high heels. Asami the singer even jumped off the platform with her skinny heels without breaking her ankles at the end of the last song before the encore, Holy War live 2021 ua-cam.com/video/2WEkVd5JrFI/v-deo.html. The dark haired guitarist Miyako was four month pregnant that time. Tough woman.
I think you have reacted to their most beautiful progressive A Frozen Serenade ua-cam.com/video/Ae8pQVu-RN8/v-deo.html. Try it if not. You'll love their latest MV with new bassist Fami, Stand and Deliver (Shoot'em Down) ua-cam.com/video/4ImGA7cPyrs/v-deo.html. This is truly fun stuff. They are having fun and playing around with their casual street clothe while studio recording. Enjoy!!
Thanks for the reaction! Please, include in your plans to check out these LOVEBITES songs:
- "Bravehearted" ("Daughters of the Dawn-Live in Tokyo 2019")
- "Epilogue" ("Daughters of the Dawn-Live in Tokyo 2019")
- "Empty Daydream" ("Daughters of the Dawn-Live in Tokyo 2019")
- "A Frozen Serenade" ( "Heavy Metal Never Dies - Live in Tokyo 2021")
I'm sure you will like them as well.👍
People say they should drop the white dresses, but I disagree. Heavy Metal in white is a strong message. It's the Metal of the defenders and protectors, fathers and mothers, the shields of the world. Lovebites sing about soldiers not dying in vain, to face uncertainty with courage, to love yourself. Metal doesn't have to be always destructive to sound like Metal and they're showing it🤘🐺🤘
Nice reaction. Each time I watch their videos or listen to their albums make my days a whole lot better.

Cheers!
Proving over and over that you don't need black leather, spikes, chains and skulls, to be metal!
Whatever your personal reasons are for loving Lovebites is fine... we just want you to always support them.
Wolfpack is here for LOVEBITES! 🤘🏼🐺🤘🏼
Thank you for understanding what LOVEBITES puts into the lyrics.
I really enjoyed hearing your interpretation and am very happy.
I was also impressed by their understanding and interpretation of their costumes.

Beautiful! Thank you very much! 🤘⚡
I love them. I love them so much! My favorite band in the world. Right there with Nightwish, who I love also, each in their own way. I got to see Nightwish live. I have to find a way to see Lovebites live, within the next year or two. Might have to be a trip to Japan.

I much prefer this arrangement as it sounds cleaner to my ears. Great song, great performance, it's Asami at the height of her powers and that means greatness.
Has there ever been such a beautiful, positive, and powerful heavy metal song with such a powerful message?
All members of Love Bites are intelligent, kind, and humble.
Live, this song is followed by the last song, 'We the united', which is a terrifyingly moving finale!
過去にこんなにも美しくてポジティブでメッセージ性が強く、人を感動させられるヘビーメタルソングが有っただろうか？
ラブバイツのメンバーは全員が知的で他人に優しく、謙虚な性格です。
ライブでは、この曲の後にラストソングの「We the united」が続きますが、それは恐ろしく感動的なフィナーレを飾っています！
Don't apologise for saying the truth, we are different but one would be nothing with out the other,. That aside I think this is a fantastic song that really shows just how good Asami's vocals are, this was the second to last song of the concert and was followed up by We the united which I'd highly recommend for the ultimate lift. Probably the best end to a concert I've seen ever.
If you want to hear another great message watch their video: Rising or the same live acoustic (vocal with only piano). Thanks.
I left her a link to rising with the lyrics on my comment hopefully between the two of us she gets it ]:)
Thanks for more LOVEBITES! I find it encouraging when others grasp the 'message' with the musical energy in support. Complete compositions. Every song is a worthy suggestion, however I suggest completing this encore first. Edge of the world" cuts at the end because they don't stop before the next, final song of a 1hr & 45min show, "We The United" [cc] lyrics continue Asami's 'message'.
In 2019 "Edge > United" closed the 80min main set. 2020 - closed the show.

The playlist is to include their final sharing with the audience & traditional group-bow before exiting the stage.
Thanks for sharing your affirming 'reaction'.
🐺
I already know how awesome this band is. I just love watching others discover them too. I suggest Frozen Serenade (live 2021)
ua-cam.com/video/sEjN7dAh4ok/v-deo.html should be a contender for what to see next. 🤘🤘🤘🤘🤘🤘
If you want positivity, you found the right band. I'm a vet with PTSD and they have saved my life on more than one occasion. They are truly a rare gem in today's music world. The fact that they can play such awesome, positive music while dressed as princesses just makes it all the better; it proves you don't have to look like a troll living under a bridge to rock out. The sad thing is, there are those that don't agree with that. They think that a band must wear leather, denim, spandex, etc to make metal. How you dress is not a measure of your talent and thinking it does just shows how superficial and stupid some people are.
Wonderful reaction, Sir. And please, take good care of yourself.
Nice to see that someone other than myself gets emtionally affected, me myself can not see Our ladies without tears start rolling, somehow they strikes a hearthstring deep down in my body, especially Miyako for some reason.
I am 63 y old Swedish guy and do not usually cry to music, ( only occasionally)..🙃
Miyako ( darkhaired gitarplayer and Fami bassplayer are a little bit longer, 5"2' / 5"3' somewhere, as far as I know...
I like your reacvtions to the Lovebites songs you have done so far, all three E - song are very emotional, Good Luck..
With much love from Sweden.. ❤
P.S. I really liked your take on feminism, just right on target, we are equals. D.S.
It is not *A* song, it is *THE* song.
Awesome reactions of yours, and
*awesome words of yours on femininity.* (I am a man, by the way.)
I hope that all women shine their own lights because they come to know _who_ they are and that they are _unique_ . So do Lovebites, and so do you. 😲
😊👍👌🤘
Anything Lovebites will amaze !
This band has no Peer.
Glorious Lovebites, that's 1 of their precious masterpiece songs. Metal band play heavier intense stuff with bright appearance and good massage lyrics..👍👍🤘🤘
Guess you enjoyed that Debbie! All of them are complete virtuoso's and prodigies. Many hours of study and practice to reach this level. Midori and Miyako seem to be joined by some telepathy as their duo's and fret work are always on point and in sync. The drummer Haruna is a gorgeous pocket rocket and their new bass player Miho is a dream with her supporting phrases. Asami...There are no words. Great reaction and final words Debbie. Watch your heart!! Stay safe.
Great reaction Question Queens, very emotional !!!! Keep up with your Lovebites journey!!! Asami? The One & Only Voice!!! She puts everything into every song. She said in an interview that she always sings as if it’s the last time she ever will. She is a power-house, with a lot of vocal stamina, and one of the best lead-singer & front-women in the Metal scene these days!! And she writes most of the lyrics ......... and she commands the crowd, even without saying a word!

. Great reaction as always, and being that is international women's day there is one lady that you have not done yet and most definitely need to check out because she has revolutionized the way somebody does their job as a front lead singer.
Her name is Lzzy Hale and she is the lead singer of the band halestorm and and has a voice that is one for the ages and we'll go down in rock history and music history as simply won't the best to ever do it.
PLEASE REACT TO "REBEL" BY LZZY HALE
AND BEFORE YOU SAY IT OR IF YOU'VE NOTICED IT BY NOW, HER NAME IS SPELLED "LZZY" WHICH WAS A NICKNAME GIVEN TO HER BY A FAN OF EARLY ON IN THEIR CAREER AND SHE DECIDED TO STAY WITH IT
the name of
band Lovebites is a tribute to the song Lovebites by Halestorm, the two sang together at Download Festival UK 2019 ua-cam.com/video/_J2uiUUfueA/v-deo.html
Did you see when Lzzy Hale came onstage during The Warning concert and gave Dany her Guitar? that was amazing as are The Warning another power trio of females from Mexico.
Done. Just for you 💙
Very nice song. Asami is an amazing singer❤🎤🎸🥁
It is almost embarrassimg - some old Rocker not long ago stated "Rock is dead". While all these Japanese rock and metal bands breathe the classic vibe we old metal heads were searching for years and combine that with fresh, unique elements. Oh yeah, and a good part of all of this is all female bands, that kick ass the serious way. I love it!
Yeehaw. Second!!!. Great reaction.
💙💙
Master fk Piece 😍
wow you feelt like me when im heard this the first time :)
lovebites stairway to heaven!!!!!!!!!
I enjoy watching you react to LOVEBITES. Try RAISE SOME HELL, next - ua-cam.com/video/zamSQD0JUFk/v-deo.html
Speaking of female empowerment, watch HANABIE (“Ha-Na-Bi-Eh”) do WE LOVE SWEETS - ua-cam.com/video/G18yyvPCiTM/v-deo.html
Both saved 💙
woohoo .. first!
💙
At this live, after this song, "We the united" was sung as the last song of the live. It's such an emotional finale that you'll be left speechless.
このライブでは、この歌の後に、ライブのラストソングとして「We the united」が歌われました。
それはとても感動的なフィナーレで、きっと言葉を失うでしょう。
You finding first E-song :) Now go go next - Epilog and Empty day dreams.
great reaction👍
LOVE BITES🔥🤘
please next

I'm sure you will love this band as well.
Some of the guitar sounds in the middle of the song reminded me of the band "The Gathering". With singer Anneke van Giersbergen they were what gave Floor Jansen the idea to become a metal singer.
Please have a look at The Gathering: "Strange Machines"

Saved the link. Thank you 💙
You spoke of female empowerment; most of the audience were men!
Exactly!! They love women and I celebrate them today :)
Yes because this type of music is mainly dominated by men.
❤
Miho Miho Miho!
i think you're a offical member of the wolf pack now
❤️
But you must also know Bandmaid and Nemophila
But, you don't have to dress like that and break your back wearing those heels to be "feminine" either, I certainly hope that it's ALL of theirs choice to dress up and not the record label insisting on it as a gimmick to promote. ❤ & support them.
I would prefer the rhetoric regarding empowerment etc be left somewhere else. What you speak of has no place in Eastern countries. For me all I see is accomplished musicians, gender has never been an issue with me in any genre with the likes of Khatia Buniatshivili ( Georgian), Julia Lezhneva (russian), My Tam ( Vietnamese) , Lala Hsu ( Taiwanese) , Yuko Suzuhana ( Japanese) , Sbruk ( Armenian), Geta Burlacu ( Moldovan) and the list goes on, all of which I listen to and not to forget the first all female metal band Girl school ( UK). I would go as far to say such topics never crossed their mind. However, You are entitled to your thoughts and I respect that 😊. Great reaction by the way and apologies for sharing my enlightenment 😎✌️
Respect for you, my friend 💙
Wow! ""They are what feminism should be..." That's a very profound and powerful statement. 🙏
Miyako is the genius in the group
