    Miyako is a generational talent who is a virtuoso on BOTH the guitar and piano. She has been classically-trained on the piano since the age of 3. Miyako also composed & arranged "Swan Song" and this track is a neoclassical metal masterpiece. Throughout the song, you can hear motifs from Romantic-era composers Chopin (intro, main riff, solo) and Dvořák (Chorus). Miyako's piano intro is Chopin's "Étude Op. 10, No. 12 in C minor", aka the "Revolutionary Étude". Each member of this band just oozes with her unique charisma and flair.

    Miyako's piano piece is a Chopin Etude and it takes a bit of practice to play it to this level...about 10 years practice usually does it!

    As has been said already in the comments, Miyako is a classically trained pianist 🎹 from the age of 3!!! When she went to university (she was a music major obviously); her primary focus was concert piano 🎹 performance and composing!!!! At age 18, while attending university, is when she 1st picked up the guitar 🎸 and 1st song she learned to play on guitar 🎸 was Metallica's "Master of Puppets!" Miyako is completely self taught on guitar 🎸!!!! Her favorite guitarist 🎸 is the late, great, Gary Moore, and listening to her play guitar 🎸 his influence on her really shines through!!!!! BTW, Miyako also plays synthesizer, bass, horns (French Horn specifically), strings, wood winds, and of course drums 🥁 as well!!! Miyako is also the primary composer and arranger of LOVEBITES music; approximately 60-65% of it! Asami is the primary lyricist of Lovebites, and does some composing as well; a bit of composing on her own or in collaboration with either Miyako or Mao!!! If you want more piano 🎹 from Miyako, check out her piano cover of Helloween's song "Eagle Fly Free!" LOVEBITES also did a full band cover of this song, so maybe check out both!!!! Both versions can be found on LOVEBITES RUclips channel!!!!! Miyako is continuously OOZING talent!!! Wish she could OOZE some of her talent on me!!!!! Can't wait to see what you find Lovebites OOZING next!!!!!

    The Chopin Etude is very difficult to play because it is left-hand dominate. Many teachers use it as an exercise for the left. Also she is playing by memory, which astonished Dizzy Reed, keyboards for GnR.
    When you are hearing the piano during the song, it's a backing track pre-recorded by Miyako.
    Asami wrote the lyrics.

The girls were fantastic and seemed to be having a lot of fun despite the tiny stage. Earlier this week they played at the rock festival Rock Imperium in Cartagena Spain. In her down time Miyako went of by herself in Valencia and came acroos a bar / club or similar where a band was playing. One of the guys asked her in and asked if she could play guitar, and Miyako replied that she could play guitar a little bit. She jammed with them and I am sure they got a shock when they realized how good she was. What a ringer

    I was wondering when you both would get to this song. This song is a modern masterpiece. I challenge anyone to name any other musician who is world-class on both the guitar and piano. Two instruments that are notoriously difficult to master.
    Yes, Miyako has classical piano training and can clearly play a rather difficult classical piece on the piano, then grab a pick and immediately shred on the guitar.
    But Miyako's brilliance aside, Haruna on the drums absolutely slays on this song.
    Also, congrats and good luck with the new home and the move, and I hope you both continue to "ooze" good vibes and love.

I checked him out, and he was indeed world class on both electric guitar and the piano. (I can't remember that musician's name now). Also, I would expect that across the planet, there are also some more. But the point is, there wouldn't be very many with the combined musical talent that Miyako possesses.

      @@1970Phoenix - Jordan Rudess the keyboardist for Dream Theater has been mentioned. He doesn't play guitar for Dream Theater which might give some idea of what his fellow band mates think of his guitar playing. I have seen videos of him playing guitar, and he is not bad, much better than most. I have also seen videos of Miyako playing bass and drums. IMHO, calling Jordan Rudess a world-class guitarist would be the same as adding world-class bassist to Miyako's accolades.

But regarding Jordan, I'd say as a keyboardist, he is as good as Miyako, but from what I've seen of him playing guitar, I've never seen anything that causes me to believe he has the same level of technical skill as Miyako. Don't misunderstand me, Jordan is a very competent guitarist. I'm just saying I've not seeen anything that causes me to think he is an elite guitarist. So, to summarise, and in my opinion:

    Hi Coach (and Mrs Coach) i just saw them last week in a tiny tiny club in Milan (350 people more or less, probably less) the show was fantastic, the Ladies are incredible live, always smiling and engaging with the crowd (well, everyone except Miyako, but that was to be expected...although she smiled a few times toward the end 🙂). I was particularly impressed by HARUNA (the drummer), she is just unstoppable, doesn't even seems to struggle and i don't know how is that humanly possible considering how difficult are the drum parts. Anyway, some people complained about the smallness of these venues...yes, these are small clubs, probably it will be the same for the upcoming american tour in autumn...but been able to see them at so close range, literally 6 feet from were i was...honestly...it was just fantastic.

    Thank you for getting to this. Chopin's Etudes were written as "studies", or lessons, for his students. They ended up being popular things for professional pianists to play as part of their concerts, in part to show off their skills. This is one of the more famous ones and is considered one of the most difficult ones. Miyako, who composes a lot of Lovebites’ music, is a professional-level concert pianist, and was originally going to make classical music her career. When she was 18, she picked up a guitar, and is now (quite obviously) an elite-level guitarist. She particularly likes the Romantic Era classical composers like Debussy, Dvořák and Chopin, as well as her stated favorite, Russian romantic composer Rachmaninoff. She composed “Swan Song” using elements of the New World Symphony (Dvořák) and Chopin’s Revolutionary Etude (official name Étude Opus 10, No. 12 in C minor). For this performance, she actually played the Etude as the intro, but it’s not normally included in their shows.

    LOVEBITES - Swan Song lyrics:
    If this was the last day you could live on this earth
    Would you still go on, accusing someone for today
    It’s better to fail than not do anything at all
    It is not the length, but depth of life that counts
    Oh brave soldier
    Oh gallant warrior
    Valor to those who died in battle to Valhalla
    Believe what’s in your soul
    For death will come to all
    You shall rest peacefully in God’s Heaven
    Floating lotus
    You are so graceful
    Saintly and glorious
    Till the end of time
    Floating lotus
    You are so beautiful
    Sing me your sweet song
    The legend of the swan
    If you’ve never hoped, you’ve never been through despair
    Ignorance is bliss, it’s easier to never care
    You might think it’s meaningless to sacrifice a life
    Sometimes the life of one can save so many more
    Oh brave soldier
    Oh gallant warrior
    Valor to those who died in battle to Valhalla
    Believe what’s in your soul
    For death will come to all
    You shall rest peacefully in God’s Heaven
    Floating lotus
    You are so graceful
    Saintly and glorious
    Till the end of time
    Floating lotus
    You are so beautiful
    Sing me your sweet song
    The legend of the swan

    Floating lotus
    You are so graceful

She has been playing classic piano from her three and she started self teaching guitar at her eighteen. Guitar is her secondary instrument. Hence she is a classic pianist who also plays metal guitar.

    Some knowledge of history is required to understand the meaning of the lyrics of this song.
    In 1831, some officers and citizens rose up against the Polish government, which was under the de facto control of the Russian Empire, in what was known as the 'November Revolution', but failed due to the direct intervention of Russian troops. Chopin received this news during a performance tour. He never set foot on the soil of his homeland again. When the Russians invaded Warsaw, Chopin's representatives presented the Etude OP 10, No. 12 in Paris. Franz Liszt, a friend of Chopin, then named it the 'Revolutionary Etude'.
    Miyako composed Swan Song based on this 'Revolutionary Etude' and Dvorak's 'New World Symphony'.
    Asami (vocalist), a former ballerina, wrote the lyrics inspired by Norse mythology and the ballet suite "Swan Lake", based on the historical background of the "Revolutionary Etude".
    "SwanSong" is a requiem for the warriors who fought to reclaim their homeland, a masterpiece that only Love Bites could complete.

For many centuries (starting from Ancient Greece) there is a legend, according to which Swans, non-singing, "silent" birds, acquire a voice a few moments before death, and this dying singing of Swans is amazingly beautiful.
    'Etude' by F. Chopin and 'Swan Song' are dedicated to the warriors who died in battle. Therefore, at the concert, 'Etude' and 'Swan Song' are played together.
    In an interview given after the release of the 'Electric Pentagram' Album, singer Asami (a former ballerina, studied classical ballet for about 16 years before becoming a singer) said that when she wrote the lyrics of the song, she was thinking about the famous ballet P.I. Tchaikovsky 'Swan Lake'. During the performance of the song, Asami imitates the Swan (hand movements). And in the final part (piano Miyako), symbolizing the death of the Swan, Asami depicts the dying Swan on stage. Since the camera at the end of the song is focused on Miyako playing the piano, Asami's "death of the Swan" was not captured in the shot.
    Asami added some Scandinavian mythology (Valhalla) to the lyrics. The attitudes towards death among the Japanese Samurais and the Scandinavian Vikings were very similar. For Samurais and Vikings, death in combat with weapons in their hands is a death worthy of a warrior. Death in battle is better than death from old age in your bed. All Vikings dreamed of dying in battle because then they could go to Valhalla (Hall of warriors killed in battles) where they would meet God Odin and other Vikings who fought bravely and died in arms.

    Well they are currently touring Europe and setting it on fire with their LIVE performances. Miyako just posted a video where she dropped into a bar and started jamming with local musicians....totally humble, classy and loves to share with music fans. M&M practice together away from the band and despite being polar opposites blend together and influence each other positively. Here Miyako demonstrates what she believes...that classical music and metal are cousins with much more in common than most of us truly understand. Her savant brain composed this piece but it is her insanely talented band-mates that can play it at this level LIVE. This band hasn't missed a beat and Fami has brought a new dimension since she came onboard after Miho's departure. You two are a riot and another great enjoyable reaction to one of the most gifted bands I have ever experienced and that includes Cream, CCR, Tull, Doors, Stones, Yes, ELP, AC/DC and all the great metal bands. These musicians are insanely talented at each instrument but unlike Cream there is no ego wars, no drama, no drugs and no disrespect between members. Miyako did an LP of 6 metal songs she converted into classical pieces try her piano version of Helloween's Eagle Fly Free to see how truly gifted she is ruclips.net/video/-h3BLRs0Xr4/видео.html . IMHO she is best on piano but she is okay on guitar, synth, keytar, drums, bass or anything else she can play.....LOL!!!!

    Not sure if anyone has mentioned this in any of your other Lovebites reactions, but they will be in The US in September. At the ProgPower Festival in Atlanta, which sold out quickly for the day they are playing. Then they're off to Dallas on September 8th. Then over to the west coast for a few more shows. Hopefully Lovebites will get a good reception and they'll add more dates.

They truly are captivating on stage and just ooze class (I was working hard to try to work the word of the day in - can you ooze class? lol). I recommend the other two "E" songs. Yes, they can shred with the best of them, but the "E" songs are special. They don't have a bad song and I recommend all of them, but I suggest Epilogue ruclips.net/video/JIAJYBuuKGM/видео.html with its message, it is not uncommon to shed tears. You're very correct about the message in their songs being so good. I also suggest Empty Daydream ruclips.net/video/BkPxcnsRjlk/видео.html which has amazing vocal harmonies and lyrics. It's kind of an 80s song had they stepped out of a time machine. I love both songs.

    There's a lot Asian musicians who started playing instruments or singing at young ages and put in tons of hours of practice, I can think of about ten off the top of my head, and Miyako is obviously one of them. Her technique is incredible in her relaxed wrists, consistent hand height, and left hand mastery. She won the genetic lottery, too.

    Miyako with Lovebites is touring in Europe these days. One evening she was walking alone and heard music coming from a small bar named “French Club”, I believe, in Cartagena (Spain). An all-male band was playing inside and they invited her to join asking which instrument she could play and she told them “I play guitar a little ….” Then, after watching how good she was able to play, one of the guy asked “what you mean a little?”🤣

    Japanese metal is on an incredible roll, especially the women, who are kicking ass on an epic scale. Another great band you should check out, if you haven’t already, is Bridear. Founded in 2011, they were in the second wave of all-female heavy-metal bands. They have the classic twin-lead attack and technical rhythm section. Their tiny bassist even growls at key moments.
    They’re scheduled to release their new album “Born Again” on June 28, and it’s a banger. The Metal Hammer review coming out compares them to Lovebites. They have gone through some changes but have always kept their hard, heavy, technical sound. They just posted a video single from the album: “Still Burning” ruclips.net/video/v7UOTBAtJh0/видео.html
