Yes you right sir!! We wolfpack so enjoyed with you double reaction for this two song😁 I love epilogue because it's feel so touching heart. Yes because that's ballads song. I love don't bite the dust too, because feel fun and energetic. Score 8.7 is great. That's high score too. I see you reaction to another band or song. You not easy to give a high score like Lovebites. And i'm glad Lovebites always get a great score from you. Thank you so much. Asami is phenomenal singer too for me. Again and again you not waste our time to watch this reaction. Because this great reaction and review. Next song "Winds of Transylvania" or "Break the wall" Keep on lovebitten🤘
Good review 38:18 I give you 9.5 it is very good score. Why. Indeed, it is just Asami impressed me four years ago in the piece Crusade. And I was Lovebites bitten. Stay safe. Stay Lovebites.
What a nice reaction that was - not a second too long in my opinion. And it really warmed my heart when you gave Asami the accolade she deserves - this wonderful lady's voice and stage presence are of the highest level.
LOVEBITES - Don't Bite The Dust lyrics: The rain keeps falling and falling I am crying all alone again Time is passing me by Not knowing of what it's gonna be But then I realized that I was only building my own wall It's not too hard to find what's wrong So I gotta stand up, bring it all together This game has only begun Can I only stay the way I am？ Breaking the silence in the darkness I don't wanna fail, I don't wanna give in I don't wanna bite the dust All I have is a ghost of a chance Never to forget what I've lost I don't wanna fade, I don't wanna get lost I don't wanna bite the dust Even if it's me against the world I'm gonna fight until I die But then I realized that I was only building my own wall It's not too hard to find what's wrong So I gotta stand up, bring it all together This game has only begun Can I only stay the way I am？ Breaking the silence in the darkness I don't wanna fail, I don't wanna give in I don't wanna bite the dust All I have is a ghost of a chance Never to forget what I've lost I don't wanna fade, I don't wanna get lost I don't wanna bite the dust Even if it's me against the world I'm gonna fight until I die I don't wanna fail, I don't wanna give in I don't wanna bite the dust All I have is a ghost of a chance Never to forget what I've lost I don't wanna fade, I don't wanna get lost I don't wanna bite the dust Even if it's me against the world I'm gonna fight until I die I'm breathing and alive ----- lyrics: miho music: miho & Mao arrangement: LOVEBITES (miho, haruna, midori, miyako, asami)
I really like Epilogue, but i also like Dont Bite The Dust even more! It's a really fun song, i love it, even Miyako can't resist dancing with her guitar! 😁 Asami really is an awesome performer AND singer! Also Miho who is up there in front with Asami hyping the crowd all the time too. Haruna is always fantastic on those drums, with a smile, she is THE BEST! Thank you David, another awesome video from you! 2 for 1 was a nice surprise. 😀
Another great review! I love this performance too; from Miyako's Gary Moore-esque composition of Epilogue to the driving power of Don't Bite the Dust. All-in-all a fantastic performance. I also reacted the same way as you did seeing that jazzy run from Miyako on the keys (it is on guitar in the original but this version sounds much better).
You’ve just made my evening with your fulsome praise of Asami’s vocals. You wouldn’t believe that there’s a body of opinion that either doesn’t understand her style (they’re used to grunting rather than say Dio or Dickinson) or flat out hate them. Personally I think she’s in a class of her own. In Epilogue she pours her heart and soul into every word. And in Don’t bite the Dust (their debut single) she just has a blast. Great reaction, they always are.
It's crazy how some people don't like her, she's not just a good singer, she is excellent. I dont really care if her english is not perfect, sounds good to me! 😀 And also a natural on stage!
@@JFrancoDrums I love her personality, enthusiasm, stage presence and her sheer professionalism. She’s a breath of fresh air. F**k the haters... she’s their loss.
Great review as always. About that jazzy piano, Miyako said she had some interest in jazz lately in an interview. It is interesting that the singer Asami is rather shy off stage. She just transforms to an aggressive and wild badass when she goes to stage. I guess in her instinct, she loves to have attention and to go wild. I think she is a born showman and has it in her vein. Have a good one!!
It wasn't my first encounter with Lovebites, but it really got my attention. I went on Lovebites binge shortly thereafter. That was September. Not that long ago.
My first encounter was Shadowmaker, a suggested video from YT algorithm , just because watching Gimme Chocolat by BabyMetal :D :D. Well, i will never be thankful enough for this recommandation. Now i am lovebitten forever, and Lovebites is my absolutely favourite band since i discovered HM music. (1984).
When asked what she would do as a side project or after Lovebites Moyako said definitely no heavy metal, that's for Lovebites. She suggested jazz and, laughing. bosonova. In the behind the scenes video that is included on the Five of a Kind DVD Miyako can be heard playing odd snatckes of jazz.
You can never go wrong with Lovebites, everything they do has a purpose behind it, and I mean everything. One of the best things to see in their shows is how much fun they have playing, that's priceless, and I just hope to continue seeing this for many years to come. Now, regarding Miyako, yes...she is more serious, more retracted, she's the intovert of the band, but given how talented she is it doesn't really matter, at least not to me, but it's really good to see the rare moments when she actually shows that she's having fun on that stage.
Actually those uploaders of lovebites performances are also fanatics they just want to share lovebites music to new audience even if it gets there channel shutdowned so kudos to them. 😀
Well David has elevated these Princesses to Metal Goddesses after several reactions to they performances. These women are totally intelligent in everything they do and Miyako has a big hand in that. They are the definition of flawless perfection but everything is thought out, arranged and executed to perfection, nothing is ever left to chance. Midori and Miyako are total opposites on stage but they are so in sync with one another you would swear that they have the Vulcan mind meld going between them. Great reactions and really great analysis as well always entertaining even when you are not ranting! Asami is a little Napoleon on stage prowling around demanding and ordering the crowd to join in and respond, put a mic in this quiet woman's hand and look out she turns into a drill Sargent, not asking but telling you what to do!!!!
LOVEBITES - Epilogue lyrics: If you have never cried, your eyes can’t be so beautiful If you have never been hurt, you can’t feel the pain of others I will believe myself We’ll never be alone You will believe yourself We are the only ones If you have never failed, you cannot be happy for success If you have never loved, you cannot feel the love from others I will believe myself We’ll never be alone You will believe yourself We are the only ones, forever… Just the way you are Just the way you are Be the one you wanna be, with your own melody Just the way you are Just the way you are Love the song you sing Sing the song you love ----- lyrics: asami & Mao music: asami arrangement: LOVEBITES (miho, haruna, midori, miyako, asami)
Still loving these Lovebites reactions from our bro Dave... Nobody gets reviews like this, especially for metal. Go next for Eagle Fly Free (Helloween cover). It will blow your mind dude for sure. They did that in the end of Awake Again, live in studio concert because Helloween is Harunas favorite band. And they did it amazing. STAY SAFE, STAY METAL! And lets go to that 10k together!
I don't see that one in the que, so it would have to be a fresh request. You can suggest songs on here, and if your suggestion happens to already be in the que, I am more than happy to add your name to the requesters of that song.

@@THEDavidHeretic I have a link for it so I will go put it in so you can get it in the que hope they don't have to take it down again. I sent the link it's from the Awaken from Abyss, That is the only version I have seen so it's live in studio.
Good review Big Man 8.7 for two songs very fair and thanks for the shout out. Now that you have reviewed Epilogue I've got nothing left to ask for from Lovebites. So what about a three piece Icelandic band called The Vintage Caravan and the first song that got me hooked is called Midnight Mediation so thanks for Epilogue and looking forward to more reviews Cheers Big Man
Good review. Don't Bite the Dust is a fun song they all enjoy. You can't see it here but Haruna likes to throw in stick flips in this one :) You should give the studio version of Don't Bite the Dust a listen. At the end Asami does a vocal run that she doesn't dare attempt live, she always breaks it into parts.
Great reaction and review(s) Sir ! I really enjoy It again! There is only a little "thing" about the Song "Epilogue " Check the Crowd: NO Screeming, hands clapping,singing,NO Sir ! Everybody is watching and enjoying until the End . To me,It's very impressive and also a Kind of crowd entertainment👍Thank's and stay save
Hey David thanks again for this reaction. I listened very carefully what you said, and just want to express my thoughts: personally i think Epilogue deserves more than 9 :) : Let me tell you why: There are two ways, basically, to envolve the crowd, one is commanding and screaming something like " Everybody put the hands in the aiiiir! RAise some heeeell!!! Make some noooise! and so on... The other way is more deeply: its touching their souls: Is let fall some tears down the face, is keeping the listener silent and emotional. I mean, if even with thousend of people over there, you can hear only the song and not one mosquito flying, well damn... that is envolving the crowd for sure! And Epilogue did it... Its easy screaming PUT YOUR FIST IN THE AIR, and starting playing power metal, but if a song can bring some tears on an old metalhead's face, the song did his job: It reached the hearts. Just my opinion.
I was thinking the same thing the more songs you here from them.....but again take away ANY of these band members one at a time and what do you have???
the original video for don't bite the dust from early 2017 introduced LOVEBITES to the world as it was their first.and it was a pretty funny video as well. asami plays a hassled office worker who takes it out on the boss. worth watching for the laugh factor: ua-cam.com/video/dr7L-2tPP7Y/v-deo.html
Best thing about this 2 fer is that you get to see Miyako like never before. The normal shy quiet subdued guitarist let's loose, but the in Epilogue you see Midori being reserved as the song calls for. Best part of Epilogue is seeing the versatility of the entire band and showcasing Miyako from acoustic guitar to Piano to electric guitar back to Piano and electric guitar again. As well as it being Asami's back ground of Jazz and R&B there was no accidents or sneaking things in as you pointed out. I'm sorry but you should have scored this at 9.0 based on these things. lol
I was rewatching this and you seem obsessed with Miyako " rocking out " 😂 . You should check out SONIC LOVER RECKLESS - " PHOENIX " it's a side project Miyako did a few years ago - think you'll enjoy her rocking out on the video - link : ua-cam.com/video/DXZ-qhxd1VI/v-deo.html
If you want to have a glimpse just how respect have for one another and how much of a coherent unit they are, watch “Journey To The Other Side”, a song written by Miho for the passing of her father.
I've never heard Epilogue once yet without crying. The song just kills me every time. And the studio version of Don't Bite The Dust is still my number 1 LB song, and the first one I ever heard. Best metal band in 30 + years. ALL GLORY to LOVEBITES and all my brothers and sisters in The Wolf Pack everywhere, WE ARE UNITED forever under their command. Proud member of the Wolf Pack since 2017!
i just absolutely love Miyakos guitar tone in epilogue, has to be my favorite I've heard (even though the song overall, or even the riffage aint my favorite even in lovebites)
The song “Don’t Bite The Dust was their first single and their first video as a band. Although Shadomaker was much more successful (and more technical and a better example of the character of the band), Don’t Bite The Dust is a great example of their style and a song they always enjoy playing.
I don't mind any extra dose of Lovebites :) Edit: David after watcing the bonus song... Isn't it time to get their DVD-s? (If you haven't already) but then again, if you watch it you can only review the rest of the requests. Decisions, decisions 🤔 😂
Just one thing, Sir: It's overdue for you to learn & remember their names, c'mon just 5 names, Miho, Haruna, Asami, Midori & Miyako. Not Guitarist stage right, left !! These ladies deserved recognition or maybe YOU JUST DON'T WANT TO ? edit : knew you tried.... Thing is, your reviews and analysis is top notch, your expertise in music is remarkable and man, you're just fun fun. Just afraid of potential trolls !!
@@THEDavidHeretic Guitar stage left ( the one not smiling so much): MIYAKO Guitar stage right (Shredder, deep stance, show -woman): MIDORI Drums (Pocketable nuclear plant): HARUNA Bass (Co- founder of the band, with Haruna, and leader): MIHO Vocals ( Goddess, Princess, Queen, The Divine Voice): ASAMI If too hard to remember, write it on a paper, so you can read during your next Lovebites reaction video :)
Hi David, when all the new Lovebites most recent works the last 6 or 9 months I have been hoping you would be doing some reactions and reviews. (As usual the recording of the new Japanese concerts are the best sound quality) When I saw these works the first thing that came to mind (about 1/4 through the song) was "wow, David is gonna love this - Miyako is moving all around the stage and a couple shows she even went down the catwalk playing the crowd" - I kid you not, I thought of you and Mrs. Heretic. Don't know where to leave this but hope you get it. Health Wealth and Happiness to you and Mrs. Heretic. Your fan, Ron
Not sure why some are questioning your score as you always explain in detail why you gave it. Individuals can make their own reaction and score it if they like, rather than question your score. Expanding on this, some fans become rabid as such and no matter what a group releases, it is a second coming. The music industry is very aware of this and particularly in the pop market, songs get release by an established group that becomes a chart success that if it was a new band releasing it, the promoters would not touch it. The closest in the rock/metal genre is those who insist that it is a fixed genre and only certain groups fit it, everything else is trash. Thank you for your double reaction to Lovebites. Remember to look on Bit Chute or DailyMotion, if you can't find the recommended song on UA-cam.
i dont know if you know this but Miho the bassist left the band there currently trying to find however i dont think they will find one as good as her but i think they will be fine however if they lost Midori or Miyako the guitarists i think Lovebites would never recover i dont think they would ever find another guitarist that would be in sync like those 2 are its like they can read each others minds please let me know what you think
When you play together for a long time, there is definitely some familiarity that occurs. I love playing with Richie because I've been playing with him for almost 20 years, and after a few years we both started anticipating each other's playing and thoughts. So yes that absolutely does happen.
@@THEDavidHeretic because im not a musician like you but atleast from my ears i havent heard 1 note that midori and miyako have missed when they do a unisen line that will kill the band atleast for a while if 1 of them left
@@ChadTheDragonLord i love Fami in my opinion she is as good or maybe even better then Miho now dont get me wrong Miho is amazing im not taking anything away from her its just my opinion
Put my name by the most popular "Wagakki Band" song in the que. I don't see any in your reactions so far. My guess is it will be "Homura live" but just about anything by them is good. I don't see anything by Nemophila either.
I hate to be a dissenting voice here, but I just can't listen to Lovebites when they are in their normal full speed-metal mode. Maybe it's all the abuse of my ears over the years! And dare I say it's been done better by the likes of Deep Purple, Iron Maiden etc? Although every generation needs its own heroes. And Lovebites' talent is exceptional and undeniable. Also when I hear a song like Epilogue, I could listen to that any time. Emotionally very powerful.
Yes you right sir!! We wolfpack so enjoyed with you double reaction for this two song😁
I love epilogue because it's feel so touching heart. Yes because that's ballads song.
I love don't bite the dust too, because feel fun and energetic.
Score 8.7 is great. That's high score too.
I see you reaction to another band or song. You not easy to give a high score like Lovebites.
And i'm glad Lovebites always get a great score from you. Thank you so much.
Asami is phenomenal singer too for me.
Again and again you not waste our time to watch this reaction. Because this great reaction and review.
Next song "Winds of Transylvania" or "Break the wall"
Keep on lovebitten🤘
Good review 38:18 I give you 9.5 it is very good score. Why. Indeed, it is just Asami impressed me four years ago in the piece Crusade. And I was Lovebites bitten. Stay safe. Stay Lovebites.
What a nice reaction that was - not a second too long in my opinion. And it really warmed my heart when you gave Asami the accolade she deserves - this wonderful lady's voice and stage presence are of the highest level.
LOVEBITES - Don't Bite The Dust lyrics:
The rain keeps falling and falling
I am crying all alone again
Time is passing me by
Not knowing of what it's gonna be
But then I realized that I was only building my own wall
It's not too hard to find what's wrong
So I gotta stand up, bring it all together
This game has only begun
Can I only stay the way I am？
Breaking the silence in the darkness
I don't wanna fail, I don't wanna give in
I don't wanna bite the dust
All I have is a ghost of a chance
Never to forget what I've lost
I don't wanna fade, I don't wanna get lost
I don't wanna bite the dust
Even if it's me against the world
I'm gonna fight until I die
But then I realized that I was only building my own wall
It's not too hard to find what's wrong
So I gotta stand up, bring it all together
This game has only begun
Can I only stay the way I am？
Breaking the silence in the darkness
I don't wanna fail, I don't wanna give in
I don't wanna bite the dust
All I have is a ghost of a chance
Never to forget what I've lost
I don't wanna fade, I don't wanna get lost
I don't wanna bite the dust
Even if it's me against the world
I'm gonna fight until I die
I don't wanna fail, I don't wanna give in
I don't wanna bite the dust
All I have is a ghost of a chance
Never to forget what I've lost
I don't wanna fade, I don't wanna get lost
I don't wanna bite the dust
Even if it's me against the world
I'm gonna fight until I die
I'm breathing and alive

If you have never cried, your eyes can’t be so beautiful
If you have never been hurt, you can’t feel the pain of others
I will believe myself
We’ll never be alone
You will believe yourself
We are the only ones
If you have never failed, you cannot be happy for success
If you have never loved, you cannot feel the love from others
I will believe myself
We’ll never be alone
You will believe yourself
We are the only ones, forever…
Just the way you are
Just the way you are
Be the one you wanna be, with your own melody
Just the way you are
Just the way you are
Love the song you sing
Sing the song you love

Agreed. I would give it at least a 9.3.
You nailed It Bro !!!🤘🐺🤘
I have come to realize lately that without Haruna’s drumming the band could not work. She is essential to their style and sound.
I was thinking the same thing the more songs you here from them.....but again take away ANY of these band members one at a time and what do you have???

Haruna, the drummer must have a hard time with this first song to play that slow rate... ;-)
I've never heard Epilogue once yet without crying. The song just kills me every time. And the studio version of Don't Bite The Dust is still my number 1 LB song, and the first one I ever heard. Best metal band in 30 + years. ALL GLORY to LOVEBITES and all my brothers and sisters in The Wolf Pack everywhere, WE ARE UNITED forever under their command. Proud member of the Wolf Pack since 2017!
Yes. I always love hearing piano in a rock song.
In the ballads, Asami’s experience in Soul/R&B/Jazz comes in handy but when she switches gears to her metal side.. my God!
extra dose of lovebites is always welcome.
David.. The list must go on.. Next Lovebites song "Break the Wall"
i just absolutely love Miyakos guitar tone in epilogue, has to be my favorite I've heard (even though the song overall, or even the riffage aint my favorite even in lovebites)

Edit: David after watcing the bonus song... Isn't it time to get their DVD-s? (If you haven't already) but then again, if you watch it you can only review the rest of the requests. Decisions, decisions 🤔 😂
"hey you see that guy?! he is not raising his arm" :DDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDD
These girls are amazing with their technique and performance skills.
As an ol Thin Lizzy fan this blues balad hits me hard🤟🐺🙏❣ Every time😋
lovebites signs of deliverance live
They have more antisapation than Heinz ketchup!!!!👍👍👍🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥👍👍👍👍
LOvebites Are the besttttttttttttttttttttttttttt
Just one thing, Sir: It's overdue for you to learn & remember their names, c'mon just 5 names, Miho, Haruna, Asami, Midori & Miyako. Not Guitarist stage right, left !! These ladies deserved recognition or maybe YOU JUST DON'T WANT TO ?
edit : knew you tried.... Thing is, your reviews and analysis is top notch, your expertise in music is remarkable and man, you're just fun fun. Just afraid of potential trolls !!
I'm terrible with remembering names. It took me almost 6 months to remember the names of the members of KISS. I'm working on it I really am.
@@THEDavidHeretic edit : Sorry for the rant, I was just worried no-names might attract un-wanted negative feedbacks
@@THEDavidHeretic Guitar stage left ( the one not smiling so much): MIYAKO
Guitar stage right (Shredder, deep stance, show -woman): MIDORI
Drums (Pocketable nuclear plant): HARUNA
Bass (Co- founder of the band, with Haruna, and leader): MIHO
Vocals ( Goddess, Princess, Queen, The Divine Voice): ASAMI
If too hard to remember, write it on a paper, so you can read during your next Lovebites reaction video :)
Hi David, when all the new Lovebites most recent works the last 6 or 9 months I have been hoping you would be doing some reactions and reviews. (As usual the recording of the new Japanese concerts are the best sound quality) When I saw these works the first thing that came to mind (about 1/4 through the song) was "wow, David is gonna love this - Miyako is moving all around the stage and a couple shows she even went down the catwalk playing the crowd" - I kid you not, I thought of you and Mrs. Heretic. Don't know where to leave this but hope you get it. Health Wealth and Happiness to you and Mrs. Heretic. Your fan, Ron
FEELIN' YOU Ron!!! I appreciate it man, and I'll be sure to pass it on to Mrs. Heretic when I see her.
When I need a chuckle I watch your firest review, Holy War, man you went to town on that on very cool and funny. Blessings
FANTASTIC !!!!!!!!!
12:49 indeed is Triplet with all Accent on the right hand
Epilogue - the only Lovebites song that anyone (apart from Haruna) can get anywhere near playing perfectly on the drums :-)
Nice reaction!
Simply great!!! 👍
If you like a Jazz session on piano find "Rising" acoustic only Asami e Miyako (piano).
Miyako's acoustic-electric Martin guitar sounds brighter because it has a aluminum body, while Midori's Martin is wood!
thank you so much david!!! :v
I tell you David, they can read each others mind.
I like your content
Not sure why some are questioning your score as you always explain in detail why you gave it. Individuals can make their own reaction and score it if they like, rather than question your score. Expanding on this, some fans become rabid as such and no matter what a group releases, it is a second coming. The music industry is very aware of this and particularly in the pop market, songs get release by an established group that becomes a chart success that if it was a new band releasing it, the promoters would not touch it. The closest in the rock/metal genre is those who insist that it is a fixed genre and only certain groups fit it, everything else is trash. Thank you for your double reaction to Lovebites. Remember to look on Bit Chute or DailyMotion, if you can't find the recommended song on UA-cam.
🤘🐺🤘😎
Aw Maaaan! Two for one? BUMMER! LOL!!!
Heretic math lessons. Love it.
i dont know if you know this but Miho the bassist left the band there currently trying to find however i dont think they will find one as good as her but i think they will be fine however if they lost Midori or Miyako the guitarists i think Lovebites would never recover i dont think they would ever find another guitarist that would be in sync like those 2 are its like they can read each others minds please let me know what you think
When you play together for a long time, there is definitely some familiarity that occurs. I love playing with Richie because I've been playing with him for almost 20 years, and after a few years we both started anticipating each other's playing and thoughts. So yes that absolutely does happen.
@@THEDavidHeretic because im not a musician like you but atleast from my ears i havent heard 1 note that midori and miyako have missed when they do a unisen line that will kill the band atleast for a while if 1 of them left
What do you think of Fami, the new Lovebites bassist?
@@ChadTheDragonLord i love Fami in my opinion she is as good or maybe even better then Miho now dont get me wrong Miho is amazing im not taking anything away from her its just my opinion
Put my name by the most popular "Wagakki Band" song in the que. I don't see any in your reactions so far. My guess is it will be "Homura live" but just about anything by them is good. I don't see anything by Nemophila either.
Already in the que, added your name to the requesters.
Could you react to Conflict- Carlo Giuliani?
I hate to be a dissenting voice here, but I just can't listen to Lovebites when they are in their normal full speed-metal mode. Maybe it's all the abuse of my ears over the years! And dare I say it's been done better by the likes of Deep Purple, Iron Maiden etc? Although every generation needs its own heroes. And Lovebites' talent is exceptional and undeniable. Also when I hear a song like Epilogue, I could listen to that any time. Emotionally very powerful.
Can you please please please react to beyonce's why dont you love music video
Already in the que, added your name to the requesters.
@@THEDavidHeretic thank you 🐝🐝🐝
