LOVEBITES🎉 won the top spot in the Power Metal category of the METAL AWARDS 2024 with an overwhelming 53% of the votes (2nd place Kamelot, 3rd place Powerwolf). This is a great honor and shows that they have been recognized worldwide.I would like to continue supporting them forever ❤
A hidden gem. To date, this is the only song from the ladies' official discography that is not composed by the band members or Mao. It was written by Araken who was also the guitarist at Asami's last 2 annual X'mas Specials.
@@Ravage-Mike-Reacts Asami wrote the lyrics and brought this song with her and in-a-way it was her way of having the band 'audition' for her. She stated that their performance of it was significant in her choice to join them. Their first ever performance under the name LOVEBITES "Inspire" was chosen as their closing song, which left their audience with the choral line "Just Believe In Yourself" repeated 8 times by the band while Asami does an R&B vamp over the top. I think the band showed themselves to be THE band Asami wanted to commit herself to. Though different, all LOVEBITES songs are different from each other. Part of what makes it so easy to listen to LOVEBITES song after song after song ... Asami remains quite active in other music projects & Japan tours that include Araken, Mao, Ayasa (East of Eden) and many others. Her Christmas LIVE is when all these musicians/friends get together at one event. Though not performing, Miyako, Midori & Haruna attended in 2024
This one doesn't get played too often. Off their first album Awakening from Abyss. I think I've heard this just once before. For songs I don't think you have done from the ladies yet. The best versions I know that I think you'll like best. Remainder of my previous list Someone's Dream (off new EP II) audio only) Wicked witch - with lyrics/ backstage / no adSense My Orion (ライオンの曲ではありません) The ladies on a split screen having fun Dissonance (English translation of the board) Added Burden of Time (Studio Live) Miyako does something you haven't seen yet Paranoia (audio only) Dystopia Symphony (audio only) The Spirit Lives On (audio only) Victim Of Time (English translation of the board)
@@Ravage-Mike-Reacts Yeah, list is getting smaller, but like you said you have Miyako and Fami's channel and the rest of Mikayo's piano EP songs. One video in particular I think you like is Wicked Witch - with lyrics/ backstage / no adSense. It shows them arriving before the show and getting ready for the show something I think you'll like seeing.
Damn it looks like i already did the burden of time one. once i saw my title for it i remembered that was the one miyako played guitar and keyboard at the same time if im not mistaken
@Ravage-Mike-Reacts Oops, looks like you did. Back on November 18, 2024. TH-cam isn't the best for search's. Yes, it is the one Miyako does double duty - guitar and keyboards at same time. Pretty sure rest of my list you have not seen.
@@metalmark1214 There has been a couple occasions where i have reacted twice to the same song and same video but genuinely forgot that i reacted to those songs. i mean in my defense i have done over a thousand videos in a little over a year so i'm bound to forget. thanks for the list though.
LOVEBITES - Inspire lyrics & credits: Show me your heart and I'll make you believe It won't be easy but that's what you pay I will light the way - inspire Shuddering choices Pressuring voices How do I know what 'right 'or 'wrong' is? Turning a blind eye Is easy to live by But is that really how I want to be? I can't pretend to myself any longer Deep in the emptiness, envious of tomorrow Show me your heart and I'll make you believe It won't be easy but that's what you pay Don't see no wall cause I'd break it down Now is the time to begin, go ahead I will light the way - inspire Breathing deception Screaming with caution Lost in the greed for satisfaction Still you're not hopeless If you just notice The answer is always deep inside your heart Let's set it straight You have no place to run away Be the salvation, temptation ain't bringing me down Don't need a reason, just follow your heart All of the pain will be worth what you gain Anything's possible if you dare Won't be the one to give in to despair I will lead the way - inspire Blinded by weak emotions They try to get in my way Hot blooded foolishness ends in vain Just change pain to power Show me your heart and I'll make you believe It won't be easy but that's what you pay Don't see no wall cause I'd break it down Now is the time to begin, go ahead I will lead the way Just believe yourself I will light the way - inspire Just believe in yourself Just believe in yourself Just believe in yourself Just believe in yourself Just believe in yourself Just believe in yourself Just believe in yourself Just believe in yourself ----- lyrics: asami music: ARAKEN arrangement: ARAKEN album: Awakening From Abyss 10/25/2017 -----
Pop 80's vibes. If I'm not mistaken, Asami sang this song in audition to Lovebites. She did it brilliantly. Then a history written. Yes, they are natural together even in the early time. Thanks bro 👍💪

We don't often get reactions to performances from this show. To think that they'd been a band for less than 2 years at this point. Midori with her black hair and on the opposite side of the stage than what we'd expect. 😂😂🤘🤘🤘🤘🤘🤘
I don't think I have seen this performance more than once before, it is a really good tune with classic shredding involved as expected, I like these older concerts as much as the newer ones. Thanks for the reaction! 🤘🐺🤘
12:42 "When Destinies Align", right? This is a song that Asami brought with her when joining the band. Her little challenge was, can you gals play it?.. The gals must have been like, CAN WE! :)))
Before giving birth she add a different stage presence. When she played for A DROP OF JOKER. Informed a duo with KAMIKI AYA. SONIC LOVER RECKLESS. then LOVEBITES. Sometimes women become different after giving birth. You can see MIYAKO become more conservative. Only my opinion but I think she's composing and doing arrangements during her solos.. just a thought 🐺🐺🐺 awesome reaction Mike 🤘🤘🤘
Temazo uno de mis preferidos la que comentas que tiene mas movimiento es Midori en esa epoca tenian los sitios cambiados midori esataba a a derecha de la imagen y miyaco a la izquierda
LOVEBITES 100 % style. R&B Metal plus Music theatre sung by heavy cute ballerina . Very energetic song with awesome solos, bass and drums. Not mega but masterpiece. The intro and outro of Asami with choruses of Ladies, wonderful. Piano of Miyako. We are unworthy to listen to this.

I don't believe it - I think this is the first time I've seen this. Thanks Mike.
My pleasure
You're almost there until you've mastered all the songs.
Good luck!

That list is really starting to shrink. Good thing there is alot of other videos of them off stage. And fami and miyako's channel. . Thank again man

R&B metal!
I'm all for it. Especially if these ladies are involved
LOVEBITES - Inspire lyrics & credits:
Show me your heart and I'll make you believe
It won't be easy but that's what you pay
I will light the way - inspire
Shuddering choices
Pressuring voices
How do I know what 'right 'or 'wrong' is?
Turning a blind eye
Is easy to live by
But is that really how I want to be?
I can't pretend to myself any longer
Deep in the emptiness, envious of tomorrow
Show me your heart and I'll make you believe
It won't be easy but that's what you pay
Don't see no wall cause I'd break it down
Now is the time to begin, go ahead
I will light the way - inspire
Breathing deception
Screaming with caution
Lost in the greed for satisfaction
Still you're not hopeless
If you just notice
The answer is always deep inside your heart
Let's set it straight
You have no place to run away
Be the salvation, temptation ain't bringing me down
Don't need a reason, just follow your heart
All of the pain will be worth what you gain
Anything's possible if you dare
Won't be the one to give in to despair
I will lead the way - inspire
Blinded by weak emotions
They try to get in my way
Hot blooded foolishness ends in vain
Just change pain to power
Show me your heart and I'll make you believe
It won't be easy but that's what you pay
Don't see no wall cause I'd break it down
Now is the time to begin, go ahead
I will lead the way
Just believe yourself
I will light the way - inspire
Just believe in yourself
Just believe in yourself
Just believe in yourself
Just believe in yourself
Just believe in yourself
Just believe in yourself
Just believe in yourself
Just believe in yourself

2:30 The thing is, that *IS* Midori! In 2018, she was usually stage left, they've switched places in 2019 because of the piano...
I know. I corrected myself right after saying that
3:03 Thirty seconds later... 🤣
@@Ravage-Mike-Reacts Yeah, I was giving my immediate response...
Would be nice if people would watch through before making judgment .
Battle in the east footage! Love it 🏴🤘 Midori looks so different 😍

I've seen that many times. I'm surprised I didn't notice that with asami and miyako
Next LOVEBITES song: “Mastermind 01” 🔥
I did that on my last live
@@Ravage-Mike-Reacts OK, i must have missed that!
@obud3777 it was a really good one. Too bad it was just an audio but still awesome
@@Ravage-Mike-Reacts The guitar riff is amazing in Mastermind 01
Mike, that is Madori. This is before they switched sides
I know. I corrected myself
