I’m 68 years old. I’ve been playing guitar for 54 years. I’ve watched live bands on TV and seen hundreds of live concerts and gigs. For over 54 years I’ve seen many great and famous bands on stage where there is little movement and almost no smiling. It doesn’t mean that the band and musicians are not enjoying themselves or having fun! I thoroughly enjoy myself every time I play my guitar, listen to music I love or watch a great film but I don’t do so with a big smile on my face!

Honestly not sure what you're seeing. Rigid? They make it look easy. I honestly don't understand when music is so high level live, the stage movement become so important to some. I've seen enough of that in my life without great music. This song is a masterpiece. So I can't go over reactors getting hung up on movement on stage.

In my opinion, this song is a masterpiece. Even if I was bothered by things such as how much they move on stage, or how much they smile etc. etc. (which I'm not) I would still love them because the quality of their songwriting and musicianship is so astoundingly high. But I understand that different people like different things. I wonder how many musicians on the planet could do what we just watched Miyako do.

You are first one who connect music of "motley crew" (small letters) with great LOVEBITES!!!!!!!!!!!

When you play music like these ladies do there is no need to move around on stage, and trust me they are enjoying themselves , get to know lovebites and you will understand,

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.

Miyako (lead guitarist/pianist at stage left) 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". This band is far from being "rigid". If you want to see them really engage the crowd, here's another track from the same concert as the previous 2 songs you have reacted to - "Raise Some Hell" LIVE : kzfaq.info/get/bejne/sMedhrR1lbC5dp8.html

They will grab you a little more with each reaction I expect :) So that's the piano one. For some of the more animated stage stuff from Lovebites. - Raise Some Hell live - Scream For Me live - We The United live - M.D.O. Live - Stand And Deliver live And then a fun outlier, Spellbound live, some great 80s synth metal, and a bit of Keytar and silliness from Miyako, the dark haired guitarist / pianist.

Another metal masterpiece by LOVEBITES! 🤘

Well i see what you mean but its just the Songs you choose. Listen to the Anthem of the Wolfpac: "We are United" Live from Knocking at Heavens Gate 2023. But the whole Concert is full of Energy and Fun

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 SOLO: miyako / both 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 SOLO: midori [guitar] / miyako [piano] ----- lyrics: asami music: miyako arrangement: miyako & LOVEBITES (miho, haruna, midori, miyako, asami) album: Electric Pentagram 01/29/2020 ------

also Raise Some Hell from this same concert was amazing

A lot of goodness to type out about this band, Lovebites (difficult with a mobile phone). Maybe some friends will share it. Thanks for reaction bro 👍

They Uploaded Hammer of Wrath from Hellfest in France earlier today on concert for their world wide concert

That's a bit of a serious song subject to jump around and smile while you're playing. They are actually a pretty fun band a lot of the time, and they play every style of music you can imagine - but almost all of it is fast and heavy. To see them actually having fun - *_We the United_* Live 2023 kzfaq.info/get/bejne/i9R-q9mYsa_Dgps.html ; *_Raise Some Hell_* Live 2020 (same concert as your 1st two) kzfaq.info/get/bejne/sMedhrR1lbC5dp8.html ; *_Stand and Deliver_* Live 2023 kzfaq.info/get/bejne/mbSZYLJ2z-CxlHU.html

This performance amazes me no matter how many times I see it. 🤘🎹🎸🐺

The level of talent these virtuoso ladies possess is crazy to imagine as you'll see in your journey into the wolves den of #lovebites metal most of the songs, including those in this concert, you'll see more movement on stage, you will get goosebumps, of this I guarantee. New sub 🤘🥁🎸🎹🎤🐺 . Keep going and get ready to be amazed many times

Love Lovebites 🏴󠁧󠁢󠁥󠁮󠁧󠁿 🤘 🐺

If you want to see them running around and having fun: "Raise Some Hell". 🤘🏼🐺🤘🏼

This is not the only song that has piano or keyboards. Some others are ; Epilogue Empty Daydream Edge of the world Rising Spellbound Lost in The Garden Burden Of Time, and there are others. Miyako has been playing Piano since the age of 3. She, generally composes music on the piano first, then writes the guitar parts including bass & drums. Then she will send it off to the other members for there input. 😏♥️🎙🎸🎹🥁😎🤘 Btw, if you had a quarter of the talent she has.....wether she's smiling and dancing around or not, you would be somebody !

I want to know just when exactly jumping around running all over the stage became more important than the music ? the concentration it takes to play at the speed and complexity they do just does not lend itself to acrobatics Brother if that is what you want you go to the circus lol I am a 62 year old musician and this band amazes me with the skill level they all have i would not have even noticed the so called rigidness

The Revolutionary etude is a etudeof Chopin for the left hand. You can hear another Chopin etude: Ocean in background, always recorded by Miyako (the black hair guitarist)! Thank you.

Hi Szécskai Eliot form Hungary Hungarian music and video is not known, so I help the world to know it

Here's one from their last album with new bassist Fami done in casual wear in the studio they even at one point switch all the instruments having fun with it Lovebites Stand And Deliver (Shoot 'Em Down) kzfaq.info/get/bejne/aq-deqRoyLbdoqc.html

A masterpiece song by the Metal Queens, one of many they have that are masterpiece songs. Having a comparison to a part of this song mentioning Motley Crue. I don't think Motley Crue has ever been elevated to that degree, lol. Next masterpiece song - A Frozen Serenade 2021 LIVE in Tokyo with lyrics

Check out We The United from their 2023 Knockin' At Heaven's Gate part 2 to see them having fun. Also their music video of Stand and Deliver.

Just trying to get as many views as possible to call it sarcasm?

IMHO in well over 50 years of watching bands it's very often the ones who jump around like lunatics that are doing it to distract from their lack of musical talent . If watching a bunch of hairy old guys get helped on to the stage with their zimmers and mime to the tracks then Mottley Crue is probably your bag 🤷‍♂

They sing about battle of musicians who play Heavy Metal music for their music. It could mean for soldiers too.

Raise Some Hell Please!! Es la cancion que tu estas esperando oir! Te lo aseguro.

If your looking for crowd interaction or more movement on stage then: From the Miho Era of 2021 and earlier: Raise Some Hell We The United M.D.O. Hammer of Wrath Shadowmaker In the Current Fami Era: From Knocken at Heavens Gate: Hammer of Wrath We The United M.D.O. Nameless Warrior Judgement Day Stand and Deliver Liar This next part is just my opinion. Their earlier shows, to me, each member played a part in the stage performance and allowed their music to perform through them. If it was a Happy or Fast song, the members were more active. If it was a sad/serious song then they were more stationery. But since Knocken at Heavens Gate, the band is more active even though their facial expression still match the song for the most part. I have been seeing videos from their shows in Europe that are going on now, and the band is active and enjoying every moment on stage. I wish I could be there to watch them, but the videos being shown are good for now. But each year they do a show, they get better and better and so do the songs, no matter how old the song is.

Next recommendation “Raise some hell” (same concert) or “MDO” (concert “Knocking at heaven’s gate”, 2023)

If you don't like technical music then this is not the band for you.

Lousy reaction

NFR - Félek, Ha Átölelsz [OFFICIAL MUSIC VIDEO] please please please in how many days will the first hungarian reaction video be?

why are you so negative???????

I would like to hear what this song sounds like with some less frenetic drumming and more emphasis on the melody.

Haha...I guess you picked two songs with very few smiles and movement. This is not how it USE to be. Especially now with the new bass player, who is only a big smile. I think these two songs themes and tone just have not brought many smiles. I think that is a reason. This has quite a melancholic sound.

A supplemetal info. You'd better check the background story of Chopin Revolutionary Etude although. The story shares the same theme with the lyrics of Swan Song. Hence those two pieces make a suite. It really is a piece of genuine art. You seemed that you enjoyed their performance but ironically you did not smile either lol. BTW, these are the great metal musicians don't smile during their performance. Unlucky Morpheus Quadratum kzfaq.info/get/bejne/jqlidJSZx9uwnX0.html.

Somber serious songs are delivered with a more serious demeanor. Perhaps you should have been led in with "Raise Some Hell", or "We the United", which are overly joyous. Try these songs to see the vast differences in approach. Peace!

are you live??????????

Hi Eliot Szécskai form Hungary Jászárokszállás ever best eurovision performance video and music love plaese react to Baby Lasagna - Rim Tim Tagi Dim (LIVE) | Croatia 🇭🇷 | Grand Final | Eurovision 2024
