Agree 100%

Dude, the reason why it's not live is because they did post-production her voice to distort it to be close to Rob's. They performed Eagles fly free as well and played it live, as you can see on KZfaq and although the instrumentals were precise, as usual, Asami's voice definitely struggled replicating Michael kiske's. Miho implied in a recent interview that they cover these 2 covers were a response to Nemophila's Iron maiden covers, which astonishingly raked up several million views, in just months, durinng the pandemic.This Virtually Single-Handedly iintroduced Themto the Western market and a Tour in the US got got sufficient popularity to occur Months Later. Asami could not perform Painkiller live. However, she absolutely does have a good metal voice, but of the operatic type e.g. Bruce Dickinson, which is why Miho chose her as Iron Maiden are Miho's favourite band. What's unfortunate is that Nemo chose 2 maiden songs instead of these Priest and Helloween tracks, because they would have been more suited, to Mayu's voice, which is definitely more versatile. She would have killed both eagle fly free and painkiller in the studio and "live", because of her lower range and rasp. If they had done that then Asami would have been free to choose a couple of Maiden tracks, where her voice really would have shone as maidens vocal songs are very suited to her style, and also because and she speaks much better English than Mayu, who struggled with enunciation of the complex and technical iron maiden lyrics, but still sounded great because of the quality of her voice. There are limitations to her scope unfortunately, because she has a better upper range, but A worse lower range Than Bruce, for obvious reasons. Therefore they must keep the songwriting and diversity high because they don't have the options that bands like Nemophila have, as Mayu's voice is far more versatile and can reach almost thehigher range of Asami, but also has a great lower range and arguably the best rasp in music history

​@@Rowlph8888The reason they didn't play this live is rather that Miho had already announced that she would leave Lovebites at the point this cover was recorded lol. There were no live shows to perform this at.

@@cepho8349Err No dude, she was in the band at this point. You're obviously a relatively new fan

@@Rowlph8888 You evidently misunderstood me, but I should have worded it better also. Miho recorded this together with the other members, obviously, but she had already announced that she would leave Lovebites at that point. There were no live shows with Miho, so there was not even a real opportunity to perform this cover live. Also it's hilarious that you would call me a "relatively new fan". I've been listening to Lovebites for almost four years now and my comments are on Lovebites videos all over KZfaq. What a clueless statement! Also I just looked at their setlists over the years and it appears that they have performed Painkiller live, actually. Back in 2019.

I don't even think painkiller is the best sonng on the "painkiller" album.Just shows how great the album is

They didn't do the guitar solos either if my memory is correct.

@@ChadTheDragonLord exact !

Amazing job by her on this song!! 🤘🐺🤘and check out Junna's cover of it that Wave was talking about, pretty cool too!!

@JFrancoDrums Yo JF 🤘 It's EPIC man.

Forgot to take your pills?

@@ebm-everythingbutmainstream Because you can enjoy it only after taking some pills? Yes.

Péter, elfogult vagy. Ha nem is tetszik neked ahogy Asami énekel, azért a "szégyen" kifejezés erős túlzás részedről. Gondolom úgy érzed, istencsászár vagy, és ezért a rettentően kifinomult izlésednek nem felel meg ez a borító. Vagy csak egyszerűen tudálékoskodsz, fitogtatod magadat... vagy csak egy mezei troll vagy? :DDD

@@traylor2502 Come on.The instrumentals are almost an exact repliica… Shows how technically accomplished. The girls are, but of course it's not hard to be so technically complex in the modern era really is It, with so many Options for learning *I agree that this song doesn't really suit Asami's voice, but asking her to follow Rob is an impossibility. She did okay, but The Intensity and savage screaming That is Rob's trademark doesn't suit her operatic voice.If they chose some maiden tracks off the somewhere in Time album, I think she would have sounded great… That's more her style. I think they chose priest and Helloween, simply because they were following Nemophila, who had already performed two covers from Iron Maiden brilliantly and got millions of views
