- This song is absolutely fantastic! LoveBites does not disappoint yet again, and "Edge of the World" was simply EPIC! The talent level in this band is incredible. Can they keep this up or will we eventually find one we don't like? We'll find out because we are surely going to do more from this band!

Great reaction. It's commonplace for reactors to say this is my favorite song. After 40+ years of listening to rock and metal, this is the first band I can say they don't have any "filler" songs.
Thank you!
In the actual live performance, this song is followed by "We the united," which is also very moving! When I heard "We the United" live right after "Edge of the World," I was moved to tears because of the wonderful lyrics and heart-breaking feeling.
That's why LOVEBITES is one of the best in the world. Phenomenal stuff. Please share the love and tell all your friends about Lovebites.
Asami, the vocalist, puts everything into every song: look at her face, her eyes while she sings!!! She said in an interview that she always sings as if it’s the last time she ever will.
Before joining Lovebites in 2016, becoming a metal-singer, she was previously an RnB and Jazz singer (she has had vocal coaching), and she is also a trained (for a decade or so) ballet dancer, hence her fluid arm movements etc.
Her nickname is: The One & Only Voice
Asami is just 5'0" tall, but her presence on stage is absolutely noticeable: during the live shows she commands the crowd, even without saying a word (during the singing breaks).
She is a power-house, with a lot of vocal stamina and one of the best lead-singer & front-women in the Metal scene these days!!
Great comment. Love her approach that each time could be the last.
Thank you for reacting to Lovebites. These ladies are world class talents and they don’t know how to write bad song. Please continue down the rabbit hole of Lovebites music.
Mao wrote this one.
It's not JUST talent. It's hours and hours and hours of practice. As they say in golf, you need to practice 10,000 hours before you get good. She's practiced music since she was 3. They are at the top of their field.
I was undecided at first, and my mouse was hovering over the pause thingy.... then came that looooooooooong note, and I waited to see how long she could hold it. Impressed, I decided to see what was to come... then the instruments came in and the whole tone of the song changed... and I stayed to the end. Very accomplished performance from all involved!
That is how you do an intro! Sublime piano and guitar with Asami's crystal clear vocals over the top....and then that loooooooong note from Asami to push into the song. EPIC! And then the epicness continues for the whole song. Perfection.
Asami, the vocalist began her singing career singing gospel, soul and R&B. She spent time in Los Angeles after her high schooling in Japan. She also studied ballet, hence the dance during "Frozen Serenade".
Miyako is the only musician I can think of who is world-class on both the piano and the guitar, two instruments that are notoriously difficult to become very good at. All I can say is, Miyako is what happens when you practice 40 hours per day.
Mrs Coach has a full blown case of "Lovebitis", and she has not yet reacted to "Swan Song" or "Empty Daydream", etc., etc. The only cure for "Lovebitis" is to recognize that you can simultaneously have more than one favorite Lovebites song.
😁 This band has certainly captured us both.
Not just talent - years of dedication and training.
This song is another masterpiece by amazing Lovebites, with an uplifting and powerful message.
Agreed 👍
Welcome back to Lovebites… this song is a MASTERPIECE…love…LOVEBITES…
I assure you they most definitely do keep this (the quality of their songs) up for their whole catalogue. Of their (currently) 56 original songs, they don't have any bad, or even any mediocre songs. They have good songs, great songs and masterpieces. I don't know of any other group or artist in the history of rock music that can say the same.
well said. I agree 100%
One of my favourite songs. Is this Lovebites stairway to heaven ? Musically incredible.
I would say very close.
In my opinion, LOVEBITES have three songs that are legitimate masterpieces (which is three more than most other bands have). This is one of them.
What makes this song even more awesome for me is that it is composed and sung by someone whose first language is not English. I am given to understand that English is not an easy language for native Japanese speakers, Asami does a masterful job here. On top of that, Miyako's guitar gives me big Gary Moore vibs, one of my all time favourite guitarists who I had the privilege to see play live. I cannot praise this band enough. 🤗🐺
Great reaction. They keep up this level all through their catalogue, I guarantee you.
Excellent comment and thank you for them.
It’s my favorite Lovebites song. The music, the lyrics, the vocals, the instrumentation, the lighting, and the crowd all makes this one special. I hold this one close to my heart.
🤘🏼🎸🥁🎤🐺❤️🔥🇯🇵🇮🇹 One more month and I will see them live, the dream comes true! Lovebites no bad song’s, Thank You for this Reaction.
a true masterpiece! thank you for your great reaction and appreciation of the young ladies.
No argument - this is a wow epic song and performance. Even though I must have seen this over 100 times it still gives me goose bumps. 👍👍🤘🤘🤘🤘🤘🤘
Wow, I wasn't really into Lovebites till I heard this song. Amazing!!! Holy shit they jammed!!!
Indeed they did!
LOVEBITES - Edge Of The World lyrics:
Why do we learn to hate, deceive and lie, hurt each other？
Why does it never end？ The sorrow keeps on repeating
Wailing, come downpours of the rain
Will it end？ No one ever knows
Wondering, what only time can tell
What is at the end of life？
Why do we only see our own desires？ Greed is endless
Why is there authority when there is no justice in their rulings
Struggling like feeble, helpless fools
Will it end？ No one ever knows
Wandering, not knowing where to go
Carrying the breath of life
SOLO: miyako
Standing at… The Edge of the World
SOLO: midori / both / midori
As long as you're still alive, remember
- don't fear standing up, don't ever give it up
Until the day you meet your end, it's not over
- let your soul shine inside of your heart
SOLO: midori
As long as you're still alive, remember
- keep your dignity, stay true to who you are
Until the day you meet your end, it's not over
- let your heart love and always be loved
SOLO: midori
How you live will always live on
As your way of life, forever
How you live will always live on
As your way of life, forever
How you live will always live on
As your way of life, forever
SOLO: both

@@CoachCastTV 🐺
One of their mega masterpieces with Swan Song, Frozen Serenade, Epilogue and Dystopia Symphony the rest songs are masterpieces.😎
Hi Guys, just picked this reaction up. What more can you say about this extraordinary group of talented ladies? Each of them masters of their craft. Musically, top of their genre! Great reaction.
Thanks and we agree about the band.
Hellooo. A song, beautiful and powerful, with an even more powerful message "Rising" official video. One of the most beautiful metal ballads in history "Epilogue" live. A big hug
This is not the last time you guys are going to be saying "This is my favorite song so far". Continue the journey, more great times ahead! 🤘🎹🎸🎤🥁🔥
Masterpiece.
This masterpiece of fine art was performed in such an epic presentation by Lovebites. Too amazing, stunning.. thanks guys. 👍🤘
My favorite band. Not a bad song in their catalog. Lots of styles, all amazing. This one isbeautiful, as are all the "E" songs, so I'll recommend the other ones: Empty Daydream ruclips.net/video/BkPxcnsRjlk/видео.html and Epilogue ruclips.net/video/JIAJYBuuKGM/видео.html
Another Lovebites masterpiece! Love this band!❤
Great reaction ! This is one of the progier songs from the band, and it's melodic storytelling at its best. "Edge of the World" is one of Lovebites' 3 "E" songs. Here's another one - "Epilogue" LIVE : ruclips.net/video/JIAJYBuuKGM/видео.html
Thanks!
Thank you so much for your attention to LOVEBITES, their skill, talent & hard work in mastering their instruments & techniques, taken to 'next level' with a 'message' that is essential in today's world, imo. "Edge Of The World" ended abruptly because it did not end there. They segue into "We The United" which continues the lyrical theme, musically expressed by the two guitarists playing the entire song in unison/harmony from first note to last, (not just the extended "twin-solo" in the middle), an honest yet wonderful uplift for all of us as we continue our Earthly journey:
ruclips.net/video/pdXVx-0V0ew/видео.html
This is a playlist link so as to include the closing moments after the song where they express their "unity" and affection with their fans/audience and take their traditional "bow" before departing the stage.
These two songs end the encore, the full hour & 45 minute performance.
Haruna "little BIG Engine" drums 🧡 (4'9"; 1.45m)
Asami "The One & Only Voice" vocals/piano ❤ (4'10"; 1.47m)
Midori "Crazy Shredder" guitar 💚 (4'11"; 1.5m)

🐺 dreg👁
Good info. Thank you. 😊
This song is in my top 10 songs from LOVEBITES. And Miyako done one of her most beautiful solos she ever played for the moment. What a great song! ✌🐺🤘
It squeezes into my top 5.
Thanks for your reaction. Check out LOVEBITES - 'Spellbound' ('Heavy Metal Never Dies - Live in Tokyo, 2021'). You'll see pregnant Miyako (brunette, piano, keyboards, guitar) having a little "fun" during the concert.
This is a once in a lifetime band. In every respect they are admirable. Songwriting, lyrics, virtuosity, personality and behaviour. They are good in every sense of the word. They have no equals in my opinion…past or present, any musical style. They are perfection itself.
Thank you for coming back to Lovebites. For me the highlight of this song is Miyako's blues solo in the middle. There are plenty of shredders out there, but very few can rip your heart out like that.
Good point. 👍
She can really play...yeah and she is self taught on guitar at age 18. Then again playing with Midori will either make you play better or just quit. The talent in this band is just insane and this really shows off Asami's great vocal range and background. Somewhere one of her influences, Gary Moore, is smiling on that great solo. This is my favorite...LOL, yeah till we do the next one. Try Empty Daydream LIVE ruclips.net/video/lXh_uMM94jU/видео.html if you want another great "E" song that has gang vocals, backup vocals, piano, and the M&M show as usual. Again, they never disappoint!!!!!
Gary Moore's spirit spoke to us in Miyako's solo.
And they say Miyako the guitarist with black hair does not show much emotion. Then what was that solo she did, pure emotion. IMO this song is a modern masterpiece along with A Frozen Serenade.
Miyako expresses her emotions with her hands and fingers while playing.
@@ChadTheDragonLord Agreed one hundred Percent
This song ends definitely with the metal Lovebites.
Asami speaks excellent English. She lived in Los Angeles studying Ballet in her teens. One of Miho's main reasons for selecting Asami to be the singer was her English fluency and that she wrote and read English.
There are number of interviews where Asami speaks excellent English.
That's awesome. 😄
Midori also knows English as well, possibly better than Asami. None of them are fluent in English however.
To bad they didn’t had their 2024 tourdates out at once. Otherwise June Juli had been a complete Lovebites vacation :-). 14th of June flying to London, fly back. 15th with my family to Belgium and daughter to concert. 19th fly to Milan (hopefully my son can join). 28th France Hellfest. 30 days and counting ……..
WHAT A SAD END TO THIS LOVEBITES song called Journey To The Other side ruclips.net/video/WzAAT7vgKg8/видео.html With backing vocals and the quiet Miyako getting into it ALSO copied from another post This was the first time Lovebites played this venue, Bass player Miho her father used to take her there for concerts and he was supposed to be there for this one but passed a few months before it took place. What a true professional Miho is that she could play through that song while being so visibly hurting. Asami was emotional as well.
If you liked the message listen to Epilogue incredilble ballad.
Sorry, "p". On the right side of your comment there is "..." (three dots). You can edit your comments if you click on them.
🐺LOVEBITES RULES🐺
After this masterpiece try Frozen Serenade. That is theatrical, musical, genius
So far my favorite from them (that I've heard). Everything is on point for this one. As Coach said, both performance-wise, music-wise and in terms of message, this is a high point for me. Wow! They are so talented! Great reaction, hope you are having fun on you vacay!
Agreed, this is fantastic. And yes, the vacation is going well.
Asami sings this song like she *_Means It_* . And since she is the one that wrote it, she probably *_Does_* . :0) That's just Who she is as a Human being.
Great reaction @Patrick_H. Totally agree with written.
miyako can play piano, guitar,6,7,12 strings and accustic also drums cello and bass she also writes alot of their music
As usuall a nice video from the best couple❤
Thank you so much 😁
LOVEBITES is awesome but my fav is When Destinies Align :D :D :D
The ballad( well, it starts as a ballad, lol) from the first album, Awakening From Abyss. Empty Daydream and Epilogue, the other 2 ballads, are both on the 2nd album.
Yeah , this song really shows off Asami's voice, she wrote the lyrics, Mao wrote the music.
to use your term the deck is not stacked fairly when you consider the artists out there earning millions/ billions that don't have a sliver of the talent this band and a few others have
great reaction great song!!asami omg!!tks again from Toronto!!bring more lovebites!!
Thanks. We'll definitely do more.
They are all immensly talented, but Miyako is other worldly. She is effortlessly brilliant. Really meaningful lyrics to this one. FYI: They can keep it up. Nothing weak in their catalog.
In its core, this piece is an 80s rock anthem. I never thought music like this would ever be made again. In the 80s, Lovebites would have been superstars filling arenas (as they deserve it).
Glory to these five breath-taking world-class musicians from Japan! Wolfpack forever! 🤘
Growing up with 80's music, totally agree with that statement.
Miyako turning to her Gary Moore influence on the guitar
Lovebites and The Warning are my 2 Favorite All-Female Metal/Rock Bands. These ladies are not only Phenomenally Talented but Humble as well !!
🩷🐺🩷🐺🩷🐺🩷🐺🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥
The Warning 🩷🩷🩷🔥🔥🔥
Long live these pioneering female-led bands !!
Please do Epilogue live next or Break Through the Wall 🙏
Wow, there's two totally opposite songs! If you listened to them you'd never think they came from the same band.
@@ChadTheDragonLord Well I thought Mrs Coach would like Epilogue and Coach would like Break the Wall 😉

If you want to see one of these ladies play two instruments at one time then I think you should check out "burden of time" next 🤘
Rising is another homerun that if you listen closely Asami is easy to understand the whole way through that one also important message. as with We The United also understandable lyrics and great Band/Fan Anthem
Keep with the e song Empty Daydreaming and Epilogue
I believe the note she holds in the live version of Shadowmaker is longer than this one.
11:30 I've heard all their songs, and the answer to your thought is YES, they are this good in ALL of their songs, every single one is great. Obviously I like some more than others. But the weakest Lovebites song is better than many bands' best song. You'll see.
I second this! 👍
We look forward to hearing more.
Great reaction Mr and Mrs Coach, thank you. Maybe this is the best song you reacted so far, but they have so many songs you need to check out. For example One of the best ballad ever "Epilogue" where M&M (Miyako & Midori) started on acoustic guitars then Miyako on piano and later on electric guitars. You have to see that. If you want to see Miyako's fantastic skills on piano "Swan song with Chopin intro" but please use this and only this video ruclips.net/video/WBhtqgiXEA4/видео.htmlsi=U5ZPXoj9yXRW6tQ1 with CC, other recordings either have bad audio or intro is missing.
We appreciate this guidance. 🙏
Thanks for taking a listen to "Edge of the World." This version is arranged so much better than the "Daughters of the Dawn" version. LOVEBITES does have one song I'm not a fan of, but I've never seen a reaction to it.
which album is it on?
@@ChadTheDragonLord It's the orchestral version of "Thunder Vengeance" from the "Golden Destination" single.
@@PaleHorseShabuShabu Ah yes. I don't really count that one. It is alternate version and not a song on its own. It's OK but if I ranked it on my list it would probably be at the bottom too.
To see Miyako's prowess on piano watch (Swan Song w/Chopin intro) no disappointment with "LOVEBITES"!!!!! Also check out (Epilogue) for a true metal ballad!!!!! Thank you for doing what you do!!!!!
Thanks for the suggestions.
🔥Mi banda favorita, maestras🔥
🐺🐺🐺🐺🐺👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻
I can’t wait to see LB in SF .
Even more unfair is that Miyako composes their songs, sings harmonies and plays a bit drums too
OMG, where to go next. You could go thrash like Set the World on Fire or Break the Wall. Or you could go Iron Maiden like with The Crusade. Or you could go complete power metal like Glory to the World or Winds of Transylvania. Or you could go hard rock like Scream for Me or Stand and Deliver. Or........................you see where I'm going with this don't you. LOVEBITES can do it all. 🤘🤘🤘🤘🤘🤘🤘🤘🤘🤘🤘🤘🤘🤘🤘🤘🤘🤘🤘🤘🤘🤘🤘🤘🤘🤘🤘🤘🤘🤘🤘🤘🤘🤘🤘🤘
Miyako do not only play piano and guitar, she also plays Bass guitar, drums, key tar and al sorts keyboards.....
From now on, in order to learn more deeply and happily about LOVEBITES and have a happier time, MIYAKO (black hair • guitar) has released a wonderful video. The content is a realistic show of herself that we can't easily see what kind of thoughts and process she is producing LOVEBITES songs. It seems that it is scheduled to be released in 3 times, and it is the first time, but the video comment section is already excited (in a very good way). It's safe because it has English subtitles. At least I clearly have increased my awe of them.
ruclips.net/video/zODuQZ0Ka6k/видео.htmlsi=pfakGu-uYjvzyKhN
Thanks for the heads up.
LOVEBITES DOESN'T WRITE BAD SONGS THEYRE TOO TALENTED TO DO THAT
💯👍👍👍
Miyako can play guitar and piano at the same time, you can see Burden of time studio version
These girls can really play Coach! Intriguing to learn more about them. Where are they from?
This is a group from Japan. And yeah, they are excellent.
Lovebites won the 2018 Metal Hammer Golden Gods award for best new band. Go to their RUclips channel for more info. ruclips.net/channel/UC90wxogt_sQrP0Os0HT-xuw
Warning when watching Lovebites:- when the light changes to red hold on to your seat! Yes, this one is a masterpiece .

With this song ... yes. Most of the rest of their catalogue is best described as a female Iron Maiden / Judas Priest / Megadeth / Slayer etc etc
