LYRICS:
[Verse 1]
If tomorrow never comes
Was it ever even here?
Nobody knows
Trying to find key to the door
It is me and no one else
All in my hand
[Pre-Chorus]
Things aren't as easy as "right" and "wrong"
You only need one thing to be proud of
[Chorus]
Solitary soldier
Fighting till the end
I'm not satisfied
Solitary fire
Even with the scars
I'm not satisfied
[Verse 2]
If I can take it all back
Daydreaming won't change a thing, so worthless
Life is always back and forth of hurting and getting hurt
Can't change this

Hey guys!
Anyone interested can check out our LOVEBITES Reactions Playlist, HERE: ua-cam.com/play/PLzwQo9bDDsIwILFYsT7NBEg82n5W2inFp.html
Enjoy! 🙏❤
The video was from the e-viewing of the whole album it premiered days before the release and the gals were there with the chatters
they also chatted with us chatters before the premier leading up to the start of it.
I have just figured out why Bass players never get their moment to shine........... every reactor hears the guitar solos then stop video to chat right as Bass solo or moment to shine is happening and when they restart video they are unaware bass did anything.
Miyako is the songwriter, and she asked for sorry from the drummer (Haruna) and the singer (Asami) for the fast drums and the high notes.
Miyako was saying sorry to Haruna and Asami because of her composition, that makes Haruna showing that sign "fast" and Asami complaining, that she has all that high notes from the beginning. After that, Asami has shown the "horns" gesture, in order to show, that she's not amused (just kidding), and Haruna did the same. For both of them, this song is a challenge, but as Miyako said, this song sounds so good at this pace, you can't slow it down, and she was convinced, that such a good drummer, like Haruna is, would manage to do it with this insane speed (I think, it's mostly around 200 bpm, could be even faster)...
Thank you, Rainerzufall42, for elaborating! Much appreciated!
Aren’t you just speculating, I mean you can’t possibly know all that unless the ladies told you themselves.
@@BryanPedersen-vd6gy First of all, I've seen the original video for a few times, and I believe, I can trust the English translations on that one (here it is cropped away). I'm not making this up!
@@BryanPedersen-vd6gy Translate what they are writing on the papers they hold up and you can see that rainerzufall is not speculating. 😊
a very unique band for sure - blending old school metal with modern sounds and a positive message/persona...and yeah - the talent is off the charts!
I (Asaf) couldn't agree more. Thank you Stevecastiglione8901, for commenting and engaging! 🙏
LOVEBITES - Soldier Stands Solitarily lyrics:
Everything was whited out the morning I woke up
If tomorrow never comes
Was it ever even here? Nobody knows
Trying to find key to the door
It's me and no one else
All in my hand
Things aren't as easy as "right" and "wrong'
You only need one thing to be proud of
Solitary soldier
Fighting till the end
I'm not satisfied
Solitary fire
Even with the scars
I'm not satisfied
If I can take it all back
Daydreaming won't change a thing, so worthless
Life is always back and forth of hurting and getting hurt
Can't change this
I have been searching for something long
Not enough time to care what others think
Solitary soldier
Fighting till the end
I'm not satisfied
Solitary fire
Even with the scars
I'm not satisfied
SOLOS: miyako / midori / both
Things aren't as easy as "right" and "wrong'
You only need one thing to be proud of
Solitary soldier
Fighting till the end
I'm not satisfied
Solitary fire
Even with the scars
I'm not satisfied
Solitary soldier
Fighting till the end
I'm not satisfied
Solitary fire
Even with the scars

Thank you, Whirled_Peace! We actually included the lyrics in the description, but thank you anyway for taking the time to post them. Much appreciated! 🙏
@@myindieprodentertainment 🐺
Haruna is up to the task of blistering double kick! Love her and this song.
Yes, it always seems impossible that they can sustain this level. Yet, they keep raising the bar even further. That's the crazy part!
I (Asaf) agree. Their intense level of performance keeps blowing us away with each song of theirs we react to. Thank you for commenting and engaging. Much appreciated! 🙏
I’m seeing 3 gigs on the forthcoming tour, spanning 5 weeks. I have read several interviews with band members (from Japanese magazines, painstakingly photographed and translated). It seems they almost all see this as the stand out song from the album. I love the video from the album introduction stream, but it seems to have been too much of a distraction from what was being played. This is no ordinary Lovebites song. This is every member playing and singing at full pelt. Asami makes vocal leap after vocal leap…in a performance easily on a par with Painkiller. Poor Haruna will need to be carried off the stage. I have already told her on social media that I will be ready and willing should the need arise.
I think everyone who has bought a ticket for the tour is keeping their fingers crossed that this is in the set. Obviously if it isn’t, it isn’t, but knowing Lovebites, just as they did with Set the World on Fire and Winds of Transylvania, they will want to prove that they only record music that they already know they can perform live.
Miyako hosted a Guitar session a couple of months ago, to a small paying audience, and someone who was in attendance said that she played the guitar part all the way through with apparent ease.
Can’t wait.
Thank you, Alekhidell for the information! I (Asaf) didn't know they see it as a stand out song. Thanks for commenting and engaging. Much appreciated! 🙏
When Miyako said sorry to Asami and Haruna, she was apologizing for writing the song so fast for Haruna, and so high for Asami.
Yes. It doesn't show in the episode because I (Asaf) accidentally cropped out the English translation from the music video. Thank you Garykeeling2275 for commenting and engaging! 🙏
M&M grabbed their guitars and showed us how they play the solos, during the solos! ☺
When you see the 5 of them and hear the music it's obvious that they're the ones who it comes from lol. So much talent and power is produced by them it's hard to believe brilliant isn't even a strong enough word. They are on a level above another level when you see how innocent they look. Goddesses is what they must be the way they transform from this to when on the stage 🤘🎤🎹🎸🥁🐺
Can't argue with that😁They are all indeed world class musicians. Thank you for commenting and engaging, Gordonnottsfinest180. Much appreciated! 🙏
🔥LOVEBITES🐺WORLDCLASS🔥
THIS BAND IS PERFECT‼️
THANKS BROS🤘🏻🤘🏻
Just rewatched it and when I saw the part from 7:22 to 7:37, it made my day for sure.
Their antics during the premiere of Lost in The Garden are pure comedy gold.
We can't wait to react to Lost in the Garden as well! We've added it to our list. Thank you, CrYou575 for commenting and engaging! 🙏
Lovebites has perfected making listening to phenomenal metal personal in a sense. I call them my 5 adopted metal daughters, as sadly, I am old enough to say that Asami, the oldest of the group, is younger than my youngest daughter 😅. Lovebites has modernized the best era of metal IMO, and personalized it into Lovebites Metal. Before the Judgement Day album came out, I thought Lovebites was near perfect. I guess they just keep redefining perfect as time goes on.
I (Asaf) totally agree! I believe Itai will agree with you as well. Indeed, Lovebites are constantly raising the bar. We keep saying how we have yet to react to a song of theirs which did not blow us away 😁Thank you, Jonathanparker93 for commenting and engaging! Much appreciated! 🙏
Once in a lifetime band. Love these ladies to the moon and back.❤🤘🤘🤘🤘🐺🐺🐺🐺
Oh! This song is the last song from their last album "Judgement day". And this was their online presentation of the whole album.
I love the song "Soldier stands solitarily". I think this is my favorite song from the album.
Thank you for the reaction. It was very interesting. More Lovebites on the channel.
Glad you liked the episode, exDemonius! Soldier Stands Solitarily is in my top 5 of theirs, so far. Although we are dealing with quite a lengthy list of requests for music reaction from a variety of great bands, we do try to react to Lovebites' music as often as possible. You can check out our Lovebites' reactions playlist below:

Thank you, for commenting and engaging, much appreciated! 🙏
This song is so mind-blowing; may be it's their "Painkiller".
LOVEBITES 'LIVE' is an even more unique experience that few 'reactors' discover.
They do not play one song at a time, then take a break. For a 'sample' of them 'LIVE'
I suggest this segment, 3 songs you have not heard, as performed on their
Heavy Metal Never Dies release taken from their Ride For Vengeance tour in March 2021
includes [cc] lyrics: ua-cam.com/video/ttBL0Q744xA/v-deo.html
"The Apocalypse>M.D.O.>Don't Bite The Dust>Holy War intro/fade" (15min)
subjects: Surviving Atomic bombing > cautionary-wisdom > perseverance & self-empowerment.
This 'trio' began 12-songs/80min into Heavy Metal Never Dies concert, showing their stamina,
3 consecutive/segued songs from founder "Natural Born HeadBanger" Miho,
Ends with segue into "Holy War/fade" to keep it Miho's songs & 15 minutes.
and "Holy War" is last song of main set. Intent of this in one upload is to encourage 'let it play'!
Please don't stop between songs or ever... let it play! BE THERE, at the show for 15 minutes!
TURN IT UP!!!!! Thank you! 🐺
Thank you Dregeye, for the information and suggestion. We added it to our list. We will of course to our best to oblige with not stopping between songs, however, we will have to stop at some point in order to 'react' to the experience 😁. Also, one of our earlier reactions to Lovebites was of Holy War from their 2021 Tokyo concert. In case you didn't catch it, you can check it out in via the link below (Please keep in mind that it was in a time, when we were technically challenged, so the video quality isn't great.).
ua-cam.com/video/McSWQcYHsZQ/v-deo.html
Thanks again for commenting and engaging. Much appreciated! 🙏
@@myindieprodentertainment Thanks for your reply and adding to your list. The end of the video only shows the segue into "Holy War" then fades out. The point being to bring understanding of the experience of being at a LOVEBITES performance, so, aside from 'talking over' to some extent, I am hopeful that a lack of interruption will bring a more accurate "reaction" to being AT the show, rather than the usual individual songs.
After all, they won't stop when WE will be at a performance &:-)
Maybe even a 'marathon' reaction of watching non-stop, then going back and re-watch with pauses to comment (as I have seen some do) which would provide opportunity for 'the LIVE experience' as well as detailed commentary.
I would even appreciate if you preface that the 'trio' begins AFTER 12-songs over 80-minutes performing.
So few reactors or their audiences ever get the "LOVEBITES LIVE" experience that (imo) cannot be understood one-song-at-a-time. Thanks for your consideration (and your efforts to retain STEREO!)
🐺 dreg👁
The genius of queen Miyako, The Golden Touch and the willingness of other members to take the challenge..then the magic is possible. Thanks for the honest comments 👍👍🤘
Well said, Kielanuar213! I (Asaf) totally agree. Thank you for engaging and commenting. Much appreciated! 🙏
I watched this livestream on UA-cam very early in the morning in my part of the US when they released the Judgement Day album. A few days ago, I also watched their livestream showing the upcoming Blu-ray of their return concert this past March. Prior to the Judgement Day album release, I considered three of Miyako's compositions to be undeniable masterpieces - Shadowmaker from Awakening From Abyss, Swan Song from Electric Pentagram and Dystopia Symphony from the Glory, Glory To The World EP. Soldier Stands Solitarily is now the fourth. With only one real exception (Stand And Deliver), Miyako composes alone. When she sends out a demo to the other band members, she includes all the instrumentation and she knows how she wants the vocals to sound. The other members suggest changes or additions but Miyako is pretty strict about sticking to her original vision of the song. I am guessing that Haruna has the most freedom. I would not be surprised that Miyako wanted a good mini drum solo and Haruna went for it big time. When all the band members are as talented as those in Lovebites, the compositional possibilities are endless.
'Break the Wall' ( lyrics - Miho / music - Miho, Miyako ) and 'Nameless Warrior' ( lyrics - Asami / music - Asami, Midori, Miyako, Haruna, Mao )
@@GrayFox14 On Break the Wall, Miho started the song but couldn't finish it so she set it aside. She eventually decided to hand over to Miyako who finished the composition and did the arrangement. They both correctly have credit for the composition but they did not actually work together. As for Nameless Warrior, I have found nothing that provides any detail about how the song was composed. It is possible they all worked together in the same room but I doubt it. To me, the song sounds very much like Mao. If you have any other info about Nameless Warrior please share.
@@danw6048 Yes, I know the story behind 'Break the Wall'. I read in an interview. It really doesn't matter if you're in the same room (working together on a song at the same time) or not. During Covid, in general, everyone sat at home,composed lyrics and music for the EP 'Glory, Glory, to the World' autonomously. Only Asami occasionally visited the other members of the band to coordinate certain points. Many songs are written in the world when one band member starts composing and another band member finishes or contributes additional musical fragments (pieces). The main thing is as a result of whose efforts the song appeared (who are the authors). In this case, the music is written by two band members. Miho's involvement with 'Break the Wall' is even bigger than Miyako's. But this is of no fundamental importance. The result is that the song has two authors. The arrangement of the song was not done by Miyako alone, but by all the members of the band.
I replied to your comment to clarify - 'Stand and Deliver (Shoot 'em Down)' is no exception for Miyako (as a co-author of music). There are two more songs in which she took part as a composer. And one song, in which Miyako participated in writing the lyrics.
As for 'Nameless Warrior', Mao's involvement in composing and arranging was no more than a 'notional 20%'. The song (lyrics and music) were written mostly by the members of the band except for Miho. Miho was in a difficult state of mind at the time, so she didn't take part in composing the song. Miho only recorded the bass part right before her departure from the band. When the ladies were writing the song, they already knew that Miho would leave the band. She wanted to leave the group for a long time, but she was asked many times not to leave. But this is a separate story connected with Miho's personal tragedy. I don't want to go deep into this..
I can only write that Miho's condition (the last three years) was about the same as in these words from the song 'Nameless Warrior':
Broken piece of a soul
Never heal in the rain
And will there be an end to this?
'Nameless Warrior' ends with:
Bringing back memories
I'll never let it go
Now is the time we'll never forget
Nameless Warrior.
These words and the video sequences of MV 'Nameless Warrior' say a lot to those who know the history of the band well ( including Miho's role in the band), etc.
@@GrayFox14 I said that Stand and Deliver was the only "real" exception to Miyako working alone. In completing Break the Wall, Miyako still worked alone. It is like one person starting a novel but not able to finish it, and then later someone gets the manuscript and finishes the novel. They are co-authors but they never worked together. As for Nameless Warrior, I appreciate the added information but we still don't know the process of how it was composed, so we don't know if it was an exception or not. We do know that for Stand and Deliver, Miyako and Asami worked together in composing the music - an actual collaboration that I hope happens again on the next album.
The "sorry" by Miyako is due to the difficulty of the song for Haruna and Asami in particular!! 🤘🐺🤘
Really love this song, one of their faster ones for sure!! Awesome reaction, thanks!!
Thank you, JFrancoDrums, for you kind words! We are being properly schooled in the comments about Miyako's "Sorry"😁. Thanks again for commenting and engaging! 🙏
🤘🏽LOVEBITES RULES🤘🏽
Great timing guys, this just popped up on my feed, and I think I've registered the first Like! Great song, and I love the ladies reacting at the album premiere session. I think you may have inadvertently cropped the English translations of the signboards?
Speaking of premieres, did you catch the livestream of their new concert Bluray/DVD (Knockin at Heavens Gate) on Sat night? It was awesome, can't wait for my copy to arrive in a couple of weeks.
Thank you, Hoges412, for viewing and engaging. YES, I (Asaf) accidentally cropped out the English translations, sorry about that. Also I didn't catch their livestream. We usually view new Lovebites' music on the show, as we react to it. Glad you liked the episode, and thanks again!🙏
Thanks for the reaction. 'Judgement Day' is a great album. My favorite songs from this album are : 'Lost in the Garden' (#8), 'We Are the Resurrection' (#1), 'Wicked Witch' (#4) and 'Soldier Stands Solitarily'(#10).
This video is part of the online presentation of the new album 'Judgement Day '(release February 22, 2023) . On February 21, 2023, on the eve of the release of the album, a stream was held for the band's fans on the LOVEBITES UA-cam channel.
During the stream, the ladies were at home. Please note that Midori has keyboard at home (located behind her back). Midori has been playing the piano since the age of 2 and the electric organ since the age of 8. She only started playing the guitar at the age of 20.
During the stream, Record Label representative Victor Entertainment and the ladies presented the new album. And then, all the songs from the 'Judgement Day' album were performed (for the first time), in the order in which they were recorded on the album. 'Soldier Stands Solitarily' is the tenth track on the album (lower right square - #10). At the end of the stream, as a bonus, the (for the first time) new 'Stand and Deliver (Shoot 'em Down)' Music Video was shown. 'Stand and Deliver (Shoot 'em Down)' - song #5 from this album.
Thank you, for sharing these wonderful factoids, User-lr3kc2fu9c! I (Asaf) had no idea Midori had only started playing the guitar at age 20. Since her skill level is jaw-dropping high, I imagined she started at a much younger age. Also, we did a reaction for Stand and Deliver (Shoot'em Down) music video, a while ago. If you didn't get a chance to see it, you can check it out in the link below:
ua-cam.com/video/N1me3Y6q45I/v-deo.html
Thanks again, for commenting and engaging. Much appreciated! 🙏
@@myindieprodentertainment I have watched your reactions to all the LOVEBITES songs. Thank you.👍😊
Perhaps this will also be of interest to you.
In order to learn to play the guitar well, Midori entered and graduated from ESP/MI JAPAN (Osaka), GIT-DX department (super fast guitar department).
ESP/MI is the International Music Institute. It belongs to the company ESP (Electric Sound Products), headquartered in Hollywood ( California, USA) .
Midori has been playing ESP guitars ever since and is backed by ESP. In 2019, in addition to the 3 ESP guitars she previously had, Midori, together with the craftsmen from the ESP Guitar Craft Academy, made (personally participated in) 4 additional ESP guitars for herself.
I think this is my favorite song of their newest album. The entire album is like this - fast, relentless and in-your-face. Love it. Btw... Miyako wrote this song.Take care!
It is definitely in my (Asaf) top 5 of theirs. Thank you, Ralphboyer2538 for commenting and engaging! 🙏
Fami Fami Fami!
Did I accidently leave the UA-cam playback speed at 1.5x?
Checks settings ...
No - they are really playing that fast.
The video is from the online record release/listening party livestream for their latest album, JUDGEMENT DAY. And yes, waking up at 2:00 AM to watch it live was totally worth it.
We didn't get a chance to see it live, as we only view music videos, as we react to them, but I (Asaf) can totally see how it was worth seeing it live. Thank you, Greg-om2hb, for commenting and engaging! Much appreciated! 🙏
This video is an excerpt from the LIVE stream Lovebites conducted on the eve of the release of their latest "Judgement Day" LP. They LIVE streamed the entire album with "Soldier Stands Solitarily" being the last track on the LP.
I (Asaf) am being properly schooled in the comments about that live stream, as I didn't get a chance to see it live. We view most music videos for the first time as we react to them. Thank you, Boyzyu for commenting and engaging! Much appreciated! 🙏
🤘🏼🎸🥁🎤🐺❤️🔥🇯🇵🇮🇹
this song is 'painkiller' in the faster version I think
For me, it's the best track in Lovebites' discography. In terms of BPM, I don't know how fast they play, but it's impressive. The composition of this track is marvelous in the speed metal genre.
It is definitely in my (Asaf) top 5 from Lovebites. I agree: The composition and speed are exceptionally impressive. Thank you Kellerfrederic1, for commenting and engaging! Much appreciated! 🙏
Miyako composed music
Thank you for following LOVEBITES at all times.
Please keep up the good work LOVEBITES.
【The following is from an interview with LOVEBITES for a magazine project】
[Miyako(G Key and Piano Black hair)]
As for "Soldier Stands Solitarily", I had a demo of it when I was working on the "Glory, Glory, to the World" EP (2021).
It had a completely different shape than this one, except for the chorus.
The chorus was punchy and had a good melody, so I wasn't satisfied with it as it was.
This time, I restructured it and reincarnated it.
In Miyako's mind, she thought the BPM was too fast, so Miyako said in her mind to Haruna(Dr), "I'm sorry," "If you lower this BPM, it will feel different!" she said.
So in Miyako's mind, Miyako said, "Haruna can play at this BPM," and"If you don't play like this, it won't sound cool!"
With that in mind, Miyako entered the bass line into the software.
Japanese women and children hold up the index fingers of both hands and place them on either side of their head in a "demon" or "ogre" pose, making a "I'm so angry!" and make a kawaii expression.
"Demon" or "ogre" is the Japanese word for "oni".("oni"="鬼"👹).
At an album presentation at her home, Miyako said, "Asami & Haruna, I'm sorry! and wrote it down and projected it on the screen.
The belt Miyako requested for Asami was too high and the BPM Miyako requested for Haruna was too fast, so I think Miyako lovingly apologized to Asami and Haruna with a handwritten message panel on the screen.
Thank you Fab1901, for the detailed information! I (Asaf) had accidentally cropped out the English translation from the music video, during editing. I will of course ensure this will never happen again. Thanks again for commenting and engaging! Much appreciated! 🙏
they had a version of this clip with English translation. you should have used that one. it would have been good for you to know what they were writing. anyway. this song is bad ass composed by MIYAKO
I (Asaf) accidentally cropped out the translation from the music video. It is a great song! Thank you for commenting and engaging. Much appreciated 🙏
Great song. Haruna at approx. 40000 BPM 😁 (yeah, I know...)
😁
Sadly you cut off the English translation of the signs...
Yes, I (Asaf) accidentally cropped it out. We will ensure nothing like this happens again. We did include a link to original music video in the description, of course. Thank you, Rainerzufall42, for your comment.
🤘🐺♠👸🤘
190 bpm
As usual, stupid comments... "Video shot during covid"...
