Bro, I was just about to type "You know Ms Turner passed away yesterday" when your tribute to her came on. Good job, and we all know what you mean about the legs.
I know you weren't being disrespectful to Tina. I loved Tina just like you did, and I wasn't offended at all. She was simply the best. But yeah, I hear what you're saying about legs! Lovebites is my favorite band now, but I'll always love Tina. Peace brother!
Thank you for this awesome reaction and the tribute you gave to Tina.....the whole world was in a schock. I am a singer...and I met her once living in Switzerland. The comment you made about her legs was in full respect...I get that. You...we all could not know about her passing away shortly after you said that. So thank you. Awesome job.....and still. She would want us to go on and enjoy and make music. And yes...Lovebites kills it🔥🤘🏽
Thanks for the reaction! LOVEBITES are the GODDESSES of heavy metal ! In 2018 , LOVEBITES won the prestigious Metal Hammer GOLDEN GODS Award for "Best New Band" (London,UK). The winners of the GOLDEN GODS Award in different years and in various categories were such famous bands and musicians,such as: BLACK SABBATH, IRON MAIDEN, MOTöRHEAD, JUDAS PRIEST, TWISTED SISTER, OZZY OSBOURNE, LEMMY KILMISTER, ZAKK WYLDE, NIKKI SIXX, JOE PERRY, ANTHRAX, SLAYER, TESTAMENT, SAXON, NIGHTWISH, TRIVIUM, RAMMSTEIN, SABATON, CHILDREN OF BODOM, ARCH ENEMY, MACHINE HEAD (and this is not a complete list). LOVEBITES is a Japanese all-female heavy metal band, formed in 2016 by former Japanese heavy metal band DESTROSE members Miho( bass,backing vocals) and Haruna(drums). The band has successfully performed at various major international rock-festivals many times .In the spring of 2018, LOVEBITES performed on the Japanese leg of the Warped Tour. In August 2018, they performed at Wacken Open Air (Germany), becoming the first Japanese all-female rock band to perform at the festival. Also in August 2018 they performed on the main stage of Bloodstock Open Air (UK). In 2019, LOVEBITES performed at the Download Festival in Donington (UK) and Download Festival in Madrid (Spain). Their performance in Donington was named by the festival organizers and Metal Hammer magazine as one of the highlights of the festival! In the same year they performed at the Graspop Metal Meeting (Belgium) and the Summer Sonic Festival (Japan). Unfortunately, the Covid pandemic that began in 2020 prevents LOVEBITES from performing at festivals and forced a drastic reduction of concerts. LOVEBITES is a phenomenal band, all the ladies are talented musicians! They have recorded about 60 original songs and all the songs are very good ! 🐺Miho - bass, backing vocals (in August 2021 she left the band). 🐺Haruna - drums. 🐺Midori - guitars, backing vocals. 🐺Miyako (Mi-Ya)- guitars, piano, keyboards, backing vocals. 🐺Asami - lead vocals, piano. 🐺Fami - bass, backing vocals(since October 2022). 🐺Miho has been playing the piano since the age of 5. She started playing the bass guitar at school. Great bass player! The fact that such a wonderful band appeared is, first of all, the merit of Miho. She came up with the idea of starting a band and what kind of music the band would play. It's a mix of power metal and "old school" heavy metal (New Wave of British Heavy Metal). Miho brought these talented ladies together in LOVEBITES. 🐺Haruna has played drums since she was thirteen years old, she also plays keyboards. Haruna is the smallest (4 '9 ") , but appearances are deceiving. When Haruna sits down at the drums, this is the "little BIG Engine." She is one of the best drummers in Japan. 🐺Midori (blond hair) has been playing the piano since she was two years old and the electric organ since she was eight. She started studying guitar at the age of 20. Super guitarist, "Crazy Shredder". She surpasses many male guitarists in speed and technique of playing the guitar. Graduated from ESP / MI JAPAN ( Osaka ) , GIT-DX department (superfast guitar department). ESP / MI JAPAN is an International Music Institute , headquartered in Hollywood, California, USA. 🐺Miyako (black hair) has been playing the piano since the age of three, received a classical education (piano) and wanted to pursue a career as a pianist. She has been playing the guitar since the age of 18. Super guitarist! They call her "The Golden Touch" and she is a real musical genius. Miyako is the main composer of the band, she wrote 50% of the music. * In terms of teamwork, synchronization / harmonization of guitars , Midori and Miyako today are perhaps the best pair of guitarists in the world playing metal. One music critic said that two guitarists of this level (Midori and Miyako) in the same band is a crime!😊 🐺Asami started with R&B and Soul music. She studied classical ballet for about 16 years (this is noticeable in her movements on stage, especially the movements of her hands). Started ballet lessons at the age of two. After leaving school, Asami lived for some time in the US, where she came to study Jazz and hip hop dance. Plays the piano. Asami wrote most of the lyrics of the band's songs. 🐺Fami is 20 years old, plays bass, keyboards, guitar, writes songs, sings. She has already released her solo Album, which she dedicated to graduating from school. Despite his youth, Fami has experience of collaboration with famous musicians.. All songs LOVEBITES are written in English. Unlike other metal bands, LOVEBITES are always on stage in white dresses . White dresses are their style. The Wolf is the mascot of LOVEBITES and is featured on all band's albums except the first EP "The Lovebites". The band's fans call themselves the 🐺Wolfpack🐺
4:45 sometimes? 😆 U.S. Americans know almost nothing about other countries. Many don't even have passports. They think they've seen it all when they've been to a few other U.S. states.
This is the most popular Lovebites song for reactors. I like the fact you used the 2021 Live version. I have not seen a band in my 40 years of rock/metal that two lead guitarists play such a great in sync guitar solos Check out The Awakening / Hammer of Wrath - Live.
You're not gonna get hate from anyone over the Aretha Franklin comparison, at least not from anyone who actually knows about this band. Asami indeed started out as an R&B, Soul and Gospel singer. That's where her background lies, so saying you notice that in her singing is huge compliment to her! Also, I doubt anyone is going to get bent out of shape over the Tina Turner comment. It was obviously a light-hearted joke, and there was nothing offensive about it. R.I.P. Queen of Rock n Roll!
There seems to be an unending supply of top tier musicians coming out of Japan's schools! Another favorite of mine is Gacharic Spin - Mindset. Catch the studio version, and then watch it live from the 10th Anniversary show.
First of all, you got 1 Subscriber more. You are true to yourself and a Fan of Music. Dont care if people leave others will come. Do it the way YOU like it and then you have Subscribers that loves you. My Respect to you that you bring a bit from Tina in this Video .She deserves it. Dont missunderstand me pls, i had to think about it for a while. You asked Tina to give the Crown to Lovebites and some hours later she passed away. Its difficult to say it in a not first Language but maybe she did it? Isnt it a point to think about for a while? Sorry i am very emotinal , i grew up with Tina and tho theres a lot of Memories i got what happens while listening to here Music. So finally go on the way you do it.
Indeed, looking at Japanese female bands such as "BABYMETAL", "BAND-MAID", and "LOVEBITES" that have recently become known in the United States, it seems that Americans create stereotypes for Japanese female bands. It's funny and interesting. (There may be some controversy over whether BABYMETAL can be classified as a female band.) On the other hand, another stereotype issue that worries me is related to this. Sometimes I feel like many Americans have stereotypes like: "Rock/Metal is a culture that requires black clothes, metal decorations, tattoos and subversive performances." If the existence of this stereotype is true, I'm worried that it could be a sign of the decline of American rock music. Does this mean that the band's style, freed from one stereotype, creates another stereotype, creating an ironic phenomenon? ---------- from Nippon *It is a sentence using Google translation. I hope I conveyed my intentions correctly.
You're right . In fairness, we can add that these stereotypes exist not only in America. The same stereotypes exist in Europe, Australia, Russia and many other countries among fans of heavy music. "Only scowling men with beards (shaved heads or long unwashed hair) in black clothes, leather, tattoos, metal rivets, etc. etc. can play real metal !!!" Oh, these stereotypes ...🤗 I have observed reactions many times when, after the first listening (or watching a video) of LOVEBITES, metal heads sat with their jaws dropped 😂and could not understand what they had just listened to and watched? 😳 and how is it possible that ladies in beautiful white dresses can play metal better than men in black clothes, etc.?!🤔
You have my utmost respect for three things in this reaction. 1. You observed that Lovebites are as good as they are because they challenge themselves to make each successive release *better* than the last. 2. You are the *ONLY* reactor to correctly assess Asami’s vocal style. I understand Aretha Franklin is one of her idols and she has such a big heart that she sings every song as if it’s her last, giving it everything. Soul and RnB are her first love (or used to be, she’s admitted that discovering metal is the best thing that she could ever have done…as a person and as a singer). 3. Kudos for the interruption and the tribute to Tina Turner. That, by you, was a touch of class. And finally, get your sorry ass to Japan as soon as possible. You will not regret it. Most wonderful people I’ve ever had the pleasure to meet. I saw Lovebites return to the stage after an enforced absence on March 11th in Tokyo. They have a Japanese tour in August and September and, at Tokyo airport, I got (via lottery…it’s how they do it in Japan) a ticket for the Osaka show on 15th September. I’ve since bagged a ticket for Sapporo too. Best band ever. I mean ever. More reactions to Lovebites please.
Thank you. I couldn't just let my very I'll timed "joke"(if you want to call it that) after I only learned after the fact she had passed. Thought I'd clarify that and most importantly tribute a true legend in music history. There's even high probability Asami was influenced and inspired by Tina at some level. That's how far her inspiration reached.
It's intuitive of you that you mentioned Aretha Franklin, the lead singer Asami, was singing R & B before she auditioned for LoveBites. 😮 Try " A Frozen Serenade, " live. 😏❤️🎙🎸🎹🥁😎🤘
don´t worry. we all knew, you weren´t not disrespecting the one and only TT, even before your true and genuine words. and we all knew what you mean about the midoris legs. thank you very much for you great reaction.
Thank you for owning that gaffe and using the opportunity to give a tribute to Tina Turner. Yes, she was the best, and I'm still in disbelief that she is gone.

ASTERISM(female guitarist) songs Dawn, Church, Blaze, Rising Moon, Gunfire, watch 16yr/o girl guitar solo's and 17yr/o boy 7string bass solo's... MAXIMUM THE HORMON(mixed) songs Alien..
They intentionally create hard songs to play (Miyako composes like half of all their songs) to improve even more and raise the bar higher for them and everybody else. And they do it in such impressive way that not so many bands do in their whole career with each new album or EP or anything. Thats why i love them so much. These girls can do everything. Never saw a band that can play heavy metal, power metal, thrash, progressive metal, ballads, hard rock and all of that at such high level-Lovebites is special. And fact that they are cute girls is just a nice bonus to the whole story
Experience Maximum the Hormon ! And speaking of beautiful legs , Miyako's are the most beautiful ! By the way , I like Samara Joy's voice the best beyond any junres in music !
here's another great Japanese female band. this is a must see clip. BAND MAID , Domination live 2020 in Tokyo. be warned this is another rabbit hole that may consume you. they tour US and kil lit every night. more cute power stuff from talent girls.
Just left Band-Maid about three hours ago! Unfortunately a short set, because it was a festival (Pointfest in St. Louis), but nonetheless absolutely phenomenal!
@@garykeeling2275 yeah they kill it and have FUN. I went and saw Babymetal a week ago with great trePidation , as not that much into their new stuff, and they replaced all the players with Western but they were great and FUN, AUDIENCE WENT FUCKING NUTS.
@@paulread4886 Yeah, Babymetal has been using the Western kami band (made up largely of members of the Star Wars-themed metal band Galactic Empire, who they met a few years back when Galactic Empire and Sabaton opened for Babymetal) for many of their North American and European shows since 2018 or 2019, after Yui left. The Eastern kami band still plays for the Japanese and Asian shows, and for the occasional European show. I got lucky enough to see the Eastern kami band back in 2016 in Chicago, as well as Yui still being there at that time. I'll see them later this year co-headlining with Dethklok in September. I love Momoko, so I'm really looking forward to it!
Yeah, I think I know what the cringe moment was. But this was probably made and posted before you even knew? Do me a favor though. Please NEVER mention my legs. Like ever!
Perhaps they impressed you enough that you failed to see a noticeably pregnant guitarist? I want to race you to Japan for all the reasons you mentioned. "It's a small world" does not apply to airfare, unfortunately!
The Contrast of Dressing Classy and Beautiful yet playing as Sick as Any Band you care to name. They are Super Women sent from Metal Heaven. Enjoy!

LOVEBITES - Holy War lyrics:
Look at those black clouds, it’s going to rain blood
People live in fear, covered in mud
Singing oh Gloria to change the prophecy
We are the metal warriors
Fighting the darkness for sisters
There is a thousand, a thousand of evils
Hush, do not wake up Satan’s devils
Singing Hallelujah to save our majesty
We are the metal warriors
Fighting the darkness for brothers
Shining blade and burning heart
Into the Gates of Hell we march
Immortal soul, let there be light
Into the Eye of Heaven
Eagles at a holy war
Fly higher than the sun
We are one for all and all for one forevermore
SOLO: midori
Kingdom of Heaven, never shall we fall
Reincarnation, wait for your call
Singing oh, Gloria to change the prophecy
We are the metal warriors
Fighting the darkness for sisters
Morning star and dying moon
Into the Gates of Hell we march
Mighty soul, let there be hope
Into the Eye of Heaven
Eagles at a holy war
Fly higher than the sun
Stand up in the name of the God of heavy metal
What do we live for?What do we fight for, tonight?
But the world is beautiful, worth fighting for
Only have one thing on our mind
Facing the fate, holy war
SOLO: miyako / midori / both
Singing Hallelujah to save our majesty
We are the metal warriors
Fighting the darkness for brothers
Shining blade and burning heart
Into the Gates of Hell we march
Immortal soul, let there be light
Into the Eye of Heaven
Eagles at a holy war
Fly higher than the sun
We are one for all and all for one forevermore
What do we live for?What do we fight for, tonight?
But the world is beautiful, worth fighting for
Only have one thing on our mind
Facing the fate, holy war

Asami started as an R&B Singer
That would make sense why she's got that "soul singer" voice. Still amazing though:)

Asami was a soul and R&B zinge😢before she joined Lovebites so you were dead on with your comment. You just got a new sub😊
It took me a few songs to pick up her style and voice for soul and r&b, but it works, and I'm 100% here for it

In Arizona and Texas, they do.
Same here in northern Nevada. All my coworkers carry and those who don't carry still own them. 🤷♂️
The dress are more Disney and not Japan, Band-Maid or Babymetal are japanese Dress
They intentionally create hard songs to play (Miyako composes like half of all their songs) to improve even more and raise the bar higher for them and everybody else. And they do it in such impressive way that not so many bands do in their whole career with each new album or EP or anything. Thats why i love them so much. These girls can do everything. Never saw a band that can play heavy metal, power metal, thrash, progressive metal, ballads, hard rock and all of that at such high level-Lovebites is special. And fact that they are cute girls is just a nice bonus to the whole story
Experience Maximum the Hormon ! And speaking of beautiful legs , Miyako's are the most beautiful !
By the way , I like Samara Joy's voice the best beyond any junres in music !
Check out a couple more all female Japanese metal bands
Aldious - Luft Music Video
Mary's Blood - Starlight Music Video
here's another great Japanese female band. this is a must see clip. BAND MAID , Domination live 2020 in Tokyo. be warned this is another rabbit hole that may consume you. they tour US and kil lit every night. more cute power stuff from talent girls.
Just left Band-Maid about three hours ago! Unfortunately a short set, because it was a festival (Pointfest in St. Louis), but nonetheless absolutely phenomenal!
@@garykeeling2275 yeah they kill it and have FUN. I went and saw Babymetal a week ago with great trePidation , as not that much into their new stuff, and they replaced all the players with Western but they were great and FUN, AUDIENCE WENT FUCKING NUTS.
@@paulread4886 Yeah, Babymetal has been using the Western kami band (made up largely of members of the Star Wars-themed metal band Galactic Empire, who they met a few years back when Galactic Empire and Sabaton opened for Babymetal) for many of their North American and European shows since 2018 or 2019, after Yui left. The Eastern kami band still plays for the Japanese and Asian shows, and for the occasional European show. I got lucky enough to see the Eastern kami band back in 2016 in Chicago, as well as Yui still being there at that time. I'll see them later this year co-headlining with Dethklok in September. I love Momoko, so I'm really looking forward to it!
Did you STOP AND CUT a Lovebites guitar solo??!!!!!!!!!! Capital sin!! Never back here, omg.
Yeah, I think I know what the cringe moment was. But this was probably made and posted before you even knew? Do me a favor though. Please NEVER mention my legs. Like ever!
Fair enough. And I recorded this the night before she passed.
Perhaps they impressed you enough that you failed to see a noticeably pregnant guitarist? I want to race you to Japan for all the reasons you mentioned. "It's a small world" does not apply to airfare, unfortunately!
I did not notice. 😵😵
