Amazing song, Amazing lyrics. From what I understand, the lyrics are partially referring to the band and their destinies aligning. They really just got me pumped up and ready for battle. It's another epic masterpiece, one of the first songs I remember watching when I started with this band, The awesome change ups through the song really stick with me. One thing their Music Videos don't do, Is highlight how incredible Haruna is, She is a wrecking ball that doesn't ever stop, if you listen again without the video, focus on the drums, just fantastic.
The band plays this song in a lot of their LIVE shows. On stage, Asami (lead vocalist and stage general extraordinaire) introduces this track as "this is us" and you should check out these amazing ladies kill this track LIVE !
After composing “When Destinies Align” , Miyako gave it the temporary title “LOVEBITES”. She had been saving that honor since 2017 for use when she wrote a song “devine” enough to bear the band’s name. Miyako described the song as melodic speed metal. Recognizing the song as representative for the band, Asami wrote the lyrics about its five members. 🤘
@@pilgrim000 Close enough! And as I understand it, it was a long-time decision by Miho, and this video was well in that period between the death of her father and her departure. I just felt, it was sad to see them breaking up.
@@rainerzufall42 fans who know the probable reasons for Miho's departure claim that she had been working towards her decision to leave the group for several years
The lyrics can be interpreted as about the trials & tribulations of the band and how they are stronger together. When they play this track live, Asami always introduces the song as "This is us".
Asami is so good on this track, I absolutely love her voice. Why do you like lovebites so much: ME: . . . It is not just some coincidence.... It is nothing like reality..... It is something very precious that not everyone can get.... It is like a dream, a turn of fate It is what the each of us can bring..... It’s a chemical reaction, only possible by these pieces.... Amazing music with the best vocals & lyrics 🍻
Asami was a ballet student for years thus her graceful movement on stage and with her arms. Check out her ballet steps in Frozen Serenade th-cam.com/video/Ae8pQVu-RN8/w-d-xo.html While 4' 10"may not make her the ideal ballerina, her graceful movements make her a real Napoleon stage general when she grabs a mic and hits the stage. A song about the band sticking together from the start despite the struggles to make it in the ultra competitive Japanese music scene. Sadly, Miho/bass (founder and one who put the group together) ended up leaving for personal reasons in 2021 (replaced by Fami), still the group went on a long hiatus searching for Fami and stayed together throughout the process. Here is another great lyric rich song done by Asami. Midori with that eye patch just confirms she is the basa$$ of the band and the one I want on my side if something happens....LOL
Both here and e.g. in Holy War the text hints at them being metal warriors fighting for metal and female metal. I mean, it was not easy to fight for metal in 2019 so they had to fight hard! Today female Japanese metal is nothing strange. But then, it was a struggle.
The story is about five warlords who fought together in the Warring States period, who are reincarnated in the present, trade their swords for musical instruments, and form LOVEBITES when their destinies are aligned. "When Destinies Align" The original plan was for five warlords from the Warring States period, but it wouldn't be interesting if everyone was in armor, so one of them was dressed in light clothing like a ninja. The color of the kimono underneath the armor was changed for each member. As a result, Miyako-san ended up in light clothing like a female ninja (=kunoichi=ku no ichi). "Kunoichi" refers to a female ninja. The name was chosen because the kanji character "女" (女=on na= woman ) can be broken down into the characters "く", "ノ" and "一". Break down the kanji character "on'na" → "く" (ku) "ノ" (no) "一"(ichi) "く" (hiragana) "ノ" (katakana) "一" (kan-sūji=Numbers written in kanji) The costume rental store didn't have enough armor for five people, so they reused armor and shot each person individually. The "eyepatch" used in the shoot is difficult to put on when wearing full makeup. The "eyepatch" for the "One-Eyed Samurai" was originally supposed to be worn by Miyako-san, but since both eyes had already been made up, they put the "eyepatch" on Midori-san, who was next in line for the shoot. 「隻眼の侍」=「独眼の侍」= "One-Eyed Samurai"🤗
Awesome, Thank you for sharing. They all look amazing in their Samurai gear. I can imagine Midori & Miyako 1000 years ago with Swords instead of guitars. I just remembered that they played When Destines Align, followed by Holy War at the Knockin' at Heavens Gate DVD. So the songs go well together.
@@RichZee777 Thank you for your thoughtful reply.😊 I had the same misconception at first.😅 I gathered the correct information from LOVEBITES📽.(february 22, 2022 issue) People all over the world who love ❤️LOVEBITES❤️ are all friends.🤗
Think you might be over thinking this just a tad guys 🙄 It's a music video not The Seven Samurai - compared to the music the visuals are supposed to be merely complimentary and give an essence of the song . Chill and just enjoy some of the best music you'll hear anywhere 😃 BTW - for God's sake steer clear of Nightwish - you're heads might explode trying to analyse them 😉
@alastairmcintyre4752 yeah, you're probably right on this one. I may seem stressed, but I genuinely love diving into the lyrics and meanings of these songs. Thanks for watching!
@@AdventuraReacts No worries - I'd suggest listening to their song " Epilogue " next - it'll give you some lyrics to get your teeth into ( and the music's not to bad either 😉) LINK : th-cam.com/video/1ynnXDfEnnY/w-d-xo.html. ( and it's live so no annoying video to worry about 😆 ) ENJOY !
Asami: 'Her typical movements'. Well, she trained as a ballerina for 16 years.
Didn't you know that, "Adventura"? Really . . .?
LOVEBITES - When Destinies Align lyrics & credits:
It is not just some coincidence
It is nothing like reality
It is something very precious that not everyone can get
It is like a dream, a turn of fate
It is what the each of us can bring
It’s a chemical reaction, only possible by these pieces
Why must someone get in our way?We won’t let them
We can go cause we believe
Why must someone put out the light deep inside our hearts
Can you see?We can create a miracle
Open your eyes, we’ll make a new future
All of our hopes are in these hands
Like a bird flying into a world we don’t know
We will always be together
Carry on, carry on
This is us, carry on
It is failure that has brought us here
It is made of our blood and tears
It is something very strong that keeps us moving on and on
It is love, ambition, destiny
It is why we’ve been through everything
It is what becomes the reason, shining bright into tomorrow
Why must someone get in our way?We won’t let them
We can go cause we believe
Why must someone put out the light deep inside our hearts
Can you see?We can create a miracle
Open your eyes, we’ll make a new future
All of our hopes are in these hands
Like a bird flying into a world we don’t know
We will always be together
Carry on, carry on
This is us, carry on
SOLOS: midori / miyako / midori / miyako / twin-solo
Open your eyes, we’ll make a new future
All of our hopes are in these hands
Like a bird flying into a world we don’t know
We will always be together
Open your eyes, we’ll make a new future
All of our hopes are in these hands
Like a bird flying into a world we don’t know
We will always be together
Carry on, carry on
This is us, carry on

"I had it turned up too loud!" Erm, excuse me? How is that a thing?!
To see their other side, strongly recommend ballad "Epilogue" IMHO one of the best ballad in metal.
It's great but there others. I have to go back to the 80's mainly.
I wish I could get poster sized prints of those samurai images. 🤘🤘🤘🤘🤘🤘
Another Miyako composition, she is just an amazing talent.
🤘🏼🤘🏼🐺🤘🏼🤘🏼
Midori💚💚💚💚💚 Miho💜💜💜💜💜

Thank you for reacting and supporting Lovebites, the most talented ladies in metal

Which is also a bit sad, considering that Miho left quite soon after this ("We will always be together!")...
@@rainerzufall42 it's been about two years since this music video came out until Miho left. almost 21 months. not that soon

When destinies align, a miracle happens; back then with Miho and now with Fami. Carry on!

watch the live versions and you will enjoy their skills instead of worrying about what the video means!!!! just my opinion!!! have a great day.

"Kunoichi" refers to a female ninja.
The name was chosen because the kanji character "女" (女=on na= woman ) can be broken down into the characters "く", "ノ" and "一".
Break down the kanji character "on'na" → "く" (ku) "ノ" (no) "一"(ichi)
