    Nice reaction but there was extended version before the song is around 2 minutes Miyako piano intro. If you not check the song Epilogue you have to. Also the song Burden of time ,Rising, Edge of the world. And if you have chance to find the song Signs of deliverance you'll be surprised what both guitarists Midori and Miyako doing on the stage, same in the song We the United Shadowmaker as well. Enjoy it. All songs are from Zepp Diversity Tokyo concert.

  • @uedajiro3050

    Glad you liked it. It is really unfortunate that the longer video from that concert with ‘Swan Song’ and the fragment of Chopin’s ‘Revolutionary Etude’ (played by Miyako) preceding ‘Swan Song’ was deleted from YT. Hearing these two together you would easily notice that Miyako in her ‘Swan Song’ guitar solo was developing a motif from ‘Revolutionary Etude’ (not to mention other similarities). It makes this track even more epic.

    It’s a shame Chopin’s label (or whoever) are being prickly and won’t allow the version of this that includes the piano intro, you’re right, Miyako has just under three times the experience on piano as guitar, and she got to show it on a Chopin snippet... Good song on its own, Asami’s voice, key changes, epic symphonic backing, tale of warriors (Valhalla, veterans, falling in battle, etc)

      @DShiflet01 4 ปีที่แล้ว +3

      It's not Chopin's label, lol. He died so long ago his music is public domain, literally anyone can use it freely. If the video is being taken down it can only be taken down by the artist(or their label) performing the specific version being taken down so it is most likely Lovebite's label doing it.

      Under the Red Sky with subtitles, to see that, pronunciation aside, their English lyrics are legit. Ahhh, but he has seen it... Above the Black Sea is it’s partner. Miyako(piano) challenged Mao (keyboardist who’s studio sixth writing member) to start with a Rachmaninov theme. These two songs were the result, both so good that they made the 4 song EP
      btw, Have you seen Edge of the World by them? Completely different structure that’s for sure

    I was lucky enough to be there from the beginning, back in 2017 my brother sent me a link to their first video Don't Bite The Dust (Still my fav song to this day) by this new power metal band called LoveBites, I was so blown away I had imported the album, I've ben there for every release since. It does us (Those who were there from the beginning) to see all the metal heads now discovering this band over the last year and watching them blown away like we were back in 2017-2018. They are the best power metal band since Maiden/Priest and I have bought everything they've released. 1st time I saw their video for Epilogue , I cried for 20 minutes afterwards. Welcome to the Wolf Pack! Their first single, and first release in 2017 , still my favorite since It was how I found them and been with them from the beginning. It's showed us, the old power metal crowd, the light way back then. this one deserves some reactions. th-cam.com/video/dZ-94UwRF1M/w-d-xo.html

    I've only came across Lovebites a few weeks ago, and I cannot put them down. I've gotta have my Lovebites for breakfast, lunch, midday snack, dinner, and midnight snack! I am a 60 y.o. 70's classic rock guy, was never really into the metal scene except for a song here and there, but I LOVE this group. I've also looked at Baby Metal, Band Maid, Mary's Blood, Nightwish, etc., but so far I've only gravitated toward Lovebites. The compositions and the executions of their music just vibrate the resonance frequency of my DNA in the most pleasing way. I've ordered their Five of a Kind DVD (they were out of the Blue ray) and I CANNOT wait for it to get here!!!

    MIYAKO (black-haired guitarist) She started playing the guitar since she became a college student and has a longer history of playing the piano.
    The guitar solo of this song also uses the phrase of Chopin's piano song (MIYAKO's piano playing Chopin's Revolutionary Etude was uploaded to TH-cam as a prelude to this song, but it is not official and copyrighted. Currently removed due to a problem)
    The other songs that were performed at the same live as this video are also very good, so please watch them (HOLY WAR is recommended)

    There used to b a piano intro for this song, which was part of a Chopin Etude but it does not seem to be on TH-cam any more. Lovebites, does leave you somewhat speechless. They do have other epic songs but at this level of musicianship, you can't really say, one song is better than another in my view. It will come down to individual taste.

    I found Lovebites at the start of the year and they hit me like five sledgehammers. How you react is how I reacted. They're all incredible, and are my favourite band now by far. If you want more piano/keyboard, plus loads of backing vocals, go for Empty Daydream (th-cam.com/video/lXh_uMM94jU/w-d-xo.html). If you want a more progressive Lovebites, try Edge of the World (th-cam.com/video/FGRxXCDtRFA/w-d-xo.html), which starts as a ballad and gets progressively faster and harder until you feel truly uplifted and inspired at the end. You'll love them both, anyway.
