Best Maiden song not written by Maiden...Miyako's tapping through the choruses is a thing of beauty!
I distinctly remember this song from their Battle Against Damnation Tour show in June 2018, which I saw live. It followed the standard "Awakening" intro and it was blazing. Miyako said at the time that she was not happy with her performance at the previous full-set show they'd done, in Feb., and she really let it rip.
LOVEBITES - The Crusade lyrics:
Walking in shadows, immersed in deception
While hiding our agony, faking a smile
Pulling the trigger to lose my religion
All of the truth ends up murdered by lies
Dancing with demons, they seem to be fond of me
Let’s start the ritual for the revenge
Pulling the trigger to burn non-believers
Being the odd one out drives me insane
I’m a fool in disguise
You’d never realize
Found myself in its song
Where else would I belong?
Break free
Fight to live on, forever strong
Break free
Heart made of steel, show me what’s real
Deep down
My heartbeat and blood burning with love
Deep down
It’s time to begin the crusade
Wanting an answer, but losing myself
While I’m hiding my anger behind empty smiles
Pulling the trigger to punish the traitors
All of your words were just nothing but lies
Crawling in chaos, I’m losing my breath, tell me
What do you see through your sinister eyes?
Pulling the trigger to kill the oppressors
I had no choice but to hide when I cried
Found myself in its song
Where else would I belong?
Break free
Always believe, hope is the key
Break free
Heart made of steel, knight of ordeal
Deep down
Destroy the restraints, never again
Deep down
It’s time to begin the crusade
SOLO: midori / miyako
Break free
Fight to live on, forever strong
Break free
Heart made of steel, show me what’s real
Deep down
My heartbeat and blood burning with love
Deep down
Be true to yourself and your beliefs
It’s time to get up and breath

Asami crushing it on this one. This is one of my favorite Lovebites songs.
If there is a Lovebites song that can be seen as a tribute to Iron Maiden, this one would be the main candidate! 🤘
So much energy and yet so much melodic detail. Awesome song!! 🔥
"Golden destination." as well.They are both "officially" homages to the NWOBHM
This is a tribute song and hommage to Iron Maiden's "Aces High". Quite powerful!
Damn, this one blazes with those guitars! And Asami blasting through like a storm siren.....my God!
One of my fav songs from Lovebites and they absolutely killed it in this performance !
As others have mentioned, this was a tribute to Iron Maiden, modelled after Aces High. But frankly, the ladies are like a bullet train, compared to an old-time steam engine. So freaking fast and clean. Amazing.
There's no frankly. Speed is simply a choice. They choose to prioritise speed and power metal. if you check out Iron Maiden's "somewhere in Time", that's easily as or more intricate than what lovebites do; They wanted to step into power metal for an album, then Steve Harris decided to step out strip down - there's nothing unattainable about the intricacy.Check out Adrian Smith latest collaboration with Kotzen and the guitar work is also as intricate as lovebites, and more original for the genres shaped with
*Love bite are brilliant with their quality, though, and are bringing it back

Each of your reactions is marked with a star (*).
Thank you for your reaction to LOVEBITES.
The Crusade" is a homage to "Iron Maiden - Aces High".
The lead track, "The Crusade," is a respectful tribute to British heavy metal, which the girls experienced in November 2017 when they performed at an event in the UK and toured London.
The Crusade" is the lead track of their mini-album "Battle Against Damnation" (released in June 2018).
In an interview for a magazine project, both Asami and Haruna said that they had to be the most enthusiastic of the LOVEBITES list at the time to be able to sing and play all the way through.
Today, there are many more difficult songs than this one.
P.S.
This time I could see your expression very clearly.
Thank you for your continued support of LOVEBITES.
Hail to Lovebites !!
👍👍LOVEBITES rocking the house and us!! 🖖❤
Midori Midori Midori💚💚💚💚💚
Everything going on in this performance is on another dimension of reality. M&M at their shredding best, every member of the band playing one of their best songs to absolute perfection. Crank it to 11! 🤘🎸
Always here for LOVEBITES. 🤘🤘🤘🤘🤘🤘
Midori's dive bomb💚💚💚💚💚
The vocal phrasing on this one is great and, i suspect, tough.
Really tough! One line says "losing my breath", but I never saw any real-life manifestation of that from Asami. How she does it, I'll never know!
Bloody love this song.. Grew up on Maiden (Up the Irons) Such a great tribute to them.. Lovebites doing Lovebites stuff.. Thanks for doing this one Sir.. Great reaction as usual..
Best wishes as always from France
Rock on!

I tell you what after seeing so many reactors doing Lovebites there is no other better than being here watching you get blown away every single time. So many greats that I watched over the years these ladies have got to be one of the greatest bands in the rock world as far as writing and composing songs as well as performing these high-caliber songs. I know I have listened to all of the songs well over a thousand times I never get tired of listening to each song because each and every time there is something new I hear that didn't catch before.
