I know this song is not complex but I like it so much. It’s only rock”n roll but I like it. It’s kinda song with a classic rock vibe; it shows the versatility of the band and and their bluesy side, especially Asami (I really love her voice in this one ). This song reminds me of Whitesnake or Deep Purple. Music is a very subjective matter.
"Dancing With The Devil" marks Midori's first songwriting credits with the band, as she co-writes the lyrics with Asami and the music with Mao. Midori noted that the BPM is slow for a Lovebites song, and said it is meant to be heavy and groovy.
Midori playing one of her GCA guitars build by herself and students from ESP's Guitar Craft Academy. Miyako plays her self-built Telecaster.
From the album Electric Pentagram
Lyrics: Asami and Midori
Music: Midori and Mao
Arrangement: Mao/Lovebites
This song is so different so I don't have problems with your score, the first time that I check this song I really don't like it, but after 1 year and a half hearing Lovebites I love this song because yeah, is sooooo different and is so fresh to me.
React to LOVEBITES cover song 'PAIN KILLER" (Judas Priest) 🤘🤘🤘🤘🤘
Very good song the first R&B Metal in history of music. Melody insane, riffs insane, music insane, vocal insane s
especialy Asami's outro. Ladies didn't yet create bad piece all are bad ass. Stay safe. Stay Lovebites.
But i love this song 🤘🏽😍🤘🏽
Hey David! Don't worry about about butt-hurt people. People these days get their panties in a twist over anything and everything. Screw them!! Regarding this song.... Do I like this song? Yes, I think it's a fun song. Is it my favorite Lovebites song? Not even close. There's only one LB song that I don't like, and I'll keep the name of that song to myself. About your score.... First of all, scores are very subjective. Your score is simply that - YOUR score. Would I have scored it higher? Yeah, probably a little, but I totally understand your reasoning for the score you gave. I've said it before and i'll say it again....This is YOUR channel, and if people don't like what you do on it, they don't have to watch it. To my fellow Wolfpack members.... You watch Lovebites because you love the music. Not everyone is going to agree with you and that's OK. I happen to love this band, but if someone else says, "Eh, not my thing." That's OK; I don't need them to approve of my choice in music. So don't jump on David's back. If you think the song deserves a score of 10.0, that's fine. He thinks it deserves a 7.7, and that's fine too. OK, I'll get off of my soap box now! Peace!!!
Wow back to lovebites again after long back 💓
The last was 4 weeks ago "Liar" :)
@@hamishalexander5048 correct bro 4weekd ago I just crossed checked you are right ,👍
Never made the Motley Crue connection but see it now. You did catch most of Haruna's unique double kick use here but go back and listen to the chorus. It has a bit of a bouncy feel in it during the first half because she has a rest maybe a 4 count on her double kick and on the second half it is constant. Smart drumming to change the feel. Very different song from them but a well done song.
LOVEBITES 🐺 INCREDIBLE...instant sub 🤘
Thanks for another good and honest review. I'd say you're spot on with your ranking. Not a bad song at all, but far from their best. It is nice to hear something a bit different from them though.
LOVEBITES - Dancing With The Devil lyrics:
I don’t like to be controlled
You should know by now my baby
I’m pretty much sick and tired of how childish you are
Don’t mess with me anymore
Say what you want, there’s no use in lying to me
It’s written on your face
“I can't live, I can’t live without you”
Look in the mirror, would you
Everything is clearly in my hands
Everything’s exactly how I planned
Everything is under my control
Did you think you were free？
Running ‘round with your collar on
Everything you wanted was a fake
Everything for me is just a game
Everything you see is fantasy
Did you even think that you ever had a chance to win？
Did you expect me to say something like “I miss you, baby”
Just shut up and cut the drama
I don’t need to hear your whining
The choice is not yours, babe
Say what you want, there’s no use in lying to me
It’s written on your face
“I can’t live, I can’t live without you”
Look in the mirror, would you
Everything is clearly in my hands
Everything’s exactly how I planned
Everything is under my control
Did you think you were free？
Running ‘round with your collar on
Everything you wanted was a fake
Everything for me is just a game
Everything you see is fantasy
Did you even think that you ever had a chance to win？
Everything is clearly in my hands
Everything’s exactly how I planned
Everything is under my control
Did you think you were free？
Running ‘round with your collar on
Everything you wanted was a fake
Everything for me is just a game
Everything you see is fantasy
Did you even think that you ever had a chance to win？

They need a slower song like this to rest a little bit in the middle of a show because they shred more than most metal bands. It makes perfect sense to me. Lovebites-Set the World on Fire (Heavy Metal Never Dies, live 2021) is a reaction that i am gonna wait as long as i need to. I am a patient man hehe. Take care bro
They gave a time to breathe for the audience.
Art, including music, has value based on subjectivity. So you are doing the right thing stating an honest score. I especially appreciate you taking the time to explain with respect (too much respect?) to LOVEBITES and the Wolfpack.
By the way, we have to consider. That is the fact that performers at live performances provide music not for "people who pick up one song on the Internet and listen to it" but for "people who paid for tickets and came to the live venue". . There are a lot of things a band has to think about when creating a program. They consider the audience's (and the band's) "excitement", "fatigue", "boring", "enjoyable", etc., when designing song selection, song order and performance. That's why I think that not only 10-point songs but also 7-point songs are necessary for live performances. I sometimes fear that there are reactors out there who judge a band after watching a live video or two. (Not David Heretic of course) hahaha.

*It is a sentence using Google translation. I hope I conveyed my intentions correctly.
Very well said.
What I like about this song is Asami's sassiness, and the way she delivers the lines and her stage presence. Do her vocal tricks at the end fit the song? Ummm, well maybe, maybe not, I kind of see your point. She was trying to bring in her R&B background into a metal song. It was OK, but since I am not an R&B fan it didn't make the song more enjoyable for me, kind of the opposite to be honest. It was different though and shows how versatile the band is. I took the time a while ago to rank every Lovebites song from my most favorite down to my least. If you do that, there obviously has to be songs at the bottom. For me, this is one of them. I have it in the bottom ten. But, like you said, it is still a good song.
No animosity. Not every song can be your favorite. I personally dig the song, But as you alluded to, a lot of that has to with nostalgia as I came of age in that era (not just Motley Crue, but also the album Quiet Riot did with Paul Shortino....and Shortino IS a good singer). Yeah, I think the R&B stylings I feel were a little much for this type of song too. But that's her roots and she made the decision to throw it in there. That's cool. There are other songs in their catalog that are actually weaker to my ear. But that's the way it goes with any band. Individuals are going to like some songs better than others. And they have such a vast catalog with so many different styles, it's bound to happen. Enjoyed the reaction.
I don't get Motley outta this but I do get straight up "Vixen" vibes from it. Good change of pace for them.
Speaking of perspective, I come to this song with one that differs. For me, this isn't a standalone song. I see it as a change of pace concert song and a bit playful, meant to be taken within the context of a concert, rather than as emblematic of Lovebites. It's one of the things I most appreciate about them, that they don't chain themselves to any specific style. Mixed in throughout their discography are little nuggets like this that are unexpected surprises that make their 'harder' songs all the more appealing.
I agree with you. This was the 11th song of the set and they were about to start the home stretch. Miyako especially needed something slower and simpler since she, of course, didn't get the break during her Chopin Etude of the Revolution (after just playing Shadowmaker). The crowd needed a chance to breathe also. This song was omitted from their 2021 setlist with A Frozen Serenade filling the same role. A Frozen Serenade , though, is a superior song in my opinion.
@@GrayFox14 No need to apologize for harshness. I found your comment more funny than harsh. I always write what I think. I agree with you that Dancing with the Devil is a good song. Where did I say that it wasn't a good song? To me most Lovebites songs are great, a few are masterpieces and the rest are good. This one falls in the latter category. I do not agree that Lovebites did not think about how a song would be played live. A touring band will always think about how a song will sound live, especially a band at the level of Lovebites. If you don't think Midori thought about how this song would sound live while she was composing it then you are crazy, and you insult Midori. They might not of known the exact setlist but they did know that most, if not all, of the songs from Electric Pentagram would be played on their 2020 tour. Eight of the 12 songs on Electric Pentagram were played at the Zepp DiverCity show out of an 18 song setlist. In their three 2021 shows, 9 of the 12 Electric Pentagram were performed. When you combine the two 2020 shows with the three 2021 shows, ALL of the Electric Pentagram songs were performed. Sorry for my harshness, but to think these songs were composed with no thought of how they would sound live is complete nonsense.
The rest of what you wrote makes absolute no sense to me, especially the mention of Stockholm Syndrome (not a legal term).
very well said could not have expressed any better than you did!!!!!
Next Lovebites song: "Today Is The Day" Live! 🤘🎸🔥
+1
I quite agree with the score. There are no bad tracks in Lovebites' discography, but this one is a little less in my personal taste. That doesn't mean it's a bad track. And since Lovebites can play any style of metal or rock, this track fits into the diversity of their repertoire.
If people only listen to the first half of your sentence, just switch the two parts! 💡😁😉
No problem with the note, it's still a good score (but it's a Midori's composition, so it's purely subjectively a 10/10! 😇 for me).
Anyway, I really doubt one of their songs will have a < 7.0 score one day.
Thanks for your reaction!🤘🐺🤘
You had me going for a bit there David, I was bracing for a 6 point something! 😅
The score is pretty fair, and I'll concede this is a departure from their usual style and tempo. The song has actually grown on me after a few listens, and it's worth watching the version with closed captions, as the lyrics are a hoot - talk about fury and the woman scorned!
I believe that this song was intended to showcase Asami's R&B background, and I actually love her sassy outro vocals. The poor woman has been called the Metal Mariah, which I don't think was meant as a compliment, so she can't win! Check out her acoustic version of Rising (just Asami and Miyako on piano) for a performance that you'd expect to see in a smoky blues joint. If nothing else, this track illustrates their versatility. How many bands will deliver a Chopin piano piece and an R&B rocker mixed in with a power metal setlist? Only Lovebites, bless them.🤗
I was expecting him to give a score around 6 as well, so the 7.7 made me happy.
Great honest reaction and score as ever 👍For me it sounded also familiar and don’t laugh at me, but I listened to Deep Purple…. I like this song a lot. Why ??? Her voice sounds amazing, not the high notes all the time and on top of the music and not overpowered by it. And yes I agree it’s a softer and slower song (political better then weak😉), but let’s be realistic, also nice for the band and the crowd to have a little rest, it can’t be Speedy Gonzalez all the way. For me also a first time listen and yes not all songs can be 9.x, but boy oh boy did I like how her voice worked out in this song…..🤘
Fair enough. I understand that the band has set the bar so high that any deviation is (technically) weaker. But I think the way you make your point made the message worse than it actually was. It never grabbed me the first few times I heard it. But, and as some others have said, it’s a song written for a reason, and one reason is that Asami sang jazz before she ever heard of metal. I think it only fair that she gets her chance to indulge. The other is to lighten the mood in a concert that includes a lot of heavy and fast music. Asami was having fun and it showed. Fun is good. It’s now become a song that I consider equal to everything else they’ve done, in it’s own way. How many bands can play such a variety of genres and make them work as well as they do?
seems to be more about groove than speed. That’s not necessarily a bad thing - the guitar riffs have a bit more swagger and attitude than usual, bringing in a bit of “hair metal” influence, I guess.Ultimately this song is fun for what it is.next try to check out Signs of Deliverance and M.D.O
This song has a glam rock element in it. It's an electronic that you can hear in motley crue, poison and many more.
I have always enjoyed Dancing With The Devil. As others have commented, it is a different song from them as much as Lovebites can't be tied down to one metal genre as such. For me, it is a great sight to see the Lovebites showing some dance moves and even Miyako sways her hips and has her foot up on the monitor more than usual. I accept they are not busting out dance moves but for your love of stage presence and entertainment, I thought a slightly higher score and acknowledgement that the ladies were more animated than usual, would of been in order.
No complaint from me about the score. Thinking about it, this might also be their "weakest" song for me, yet still I'd rate it somewhere between 7.5 and 8, so it's not a song I find boring or even dislike. Considering that my favourite metal subgenre is Thrash Metal and that I otherwise don't care about Hard Rock (which is what I'd label this song) at all, this says a lot about the qualities of Lovebites! And even though R&B is not my cup of tea, I like what Asami did with her voice in this song resp. this performance in particular. It made the song more interesting for me.
The score you gave was fair and the song is definitely more of a hard rock song than their typical metal songs but I still enjoy the song nonetheless and I have to say that you’re analysis of the song is why you are one of the better reactors out there because you give “Constructive criticism” while still showing respect to the artists versus other people who are more condescending and disrespectful. So no worries from me 👍
ort most of them will never say any bad word
Motley Crue wishes they sounded this good. I have to agree this is not there best song for me, but that said I can’t hate on anything these ladies do. Still best power metal band out there today.
you could see from the first second on his mimics where this reaction would you.
I heard the whole comment section and have to disagree completely this IS their GROOVIEST SONG not necessarily their best and I have no complaint with the score the tempo was ROCK not Metal so that throws a lot of METAL HEADS off Asami really killed it at the end LOVED IT
Scream For Me is groovier imo
@@luckylucciano20 "Scream for Me" is a shred fest first and foremost, not as groovy as DWTD
@@DavidMISAMISAMISACook it's both, the grooviest and a shred fest.
@@luckylucciano20 almost contradictory but OK your opinion, to Me (I love every song except "Inspire") "Scream for Me" is in the bottom half of Groovy Lovebites
David, have you gone over the new bassist Fami replacing Miho yet? I hope you have.
if someone request it he will :)
By the way...it's a request
"Dystopian Symphony"

(Personal impression). I think it's the fastest, heaviest, and most spectacular of LOVEBITES at the moment. However, it seems that this song is rarely used in reaction videos. I think it's because it hasn't been performed live yet (no live footage) and it hasn't been made into a music video.
Well it's not their best song, but no problems with your score.
Anyway for me it sounds like they wanted to take a break and switched to Motley Crew vibes to recharge energy 🤗
I would agree with score. I think the song is good but it is definitely one of my least favorite songs that I heard from Lovebites.
As a background about the song it was Midori's first song that she wrote for Lovebites. The second song she ever wrote for Lovebites was 'Glory to the World' which was better.
Dude, The reason I respect you is that you speak your mind, (this is a reaction channel after all) so go ahead!. I figure if people get upset with what you say, that's their CHOICE! Nobody is forcing them to react one way or another, just as to look is not to SEE, to listen is not to HEAR! great reaction as always, yo-u re- earned my sub and my respect!
You've heard about half of the songs from Lovebites and the weakest is that... ....however, I saw that you reacted to the painkiller from the Priest....to see the power of Lovebites react to the cover they did to painkiller .........oh and count at the and how hold Asami that note.....😁😏
@@GrayFox14 I refer to the words of the reactοr....that's why I say to react to Painkiller....
You know, the first time i heard this song i thought more or less the same things, now it's among my favorite songs from them, so strange...
Nice to see you again! I wos curious about your opinion on this piece, although I already know you a bit and can accurately predict. And even though I predicted your reaction quite accurately, you still surprised me a bit, because if I were to rate this song, my rating would be lower, although I still wouldn't go below 7.0 - with all my respect for this band. And why do I think that? It's quite simple - these wonderful girls have set the bar very high for themselves. And very well - they know their worth. But - if someone is the world champion in the high jump and sets the bar high for themselves, does that mean they will always beat it? No, sometimes he will knock it down - but most of his competitors will knock it down every time. It's the same here - I don't know of a band that creates great hits only - but I know of many bands and performers who are famous because they only created one hit, and still everyone remembers them and talks about them. Well that's how it works - looking from Lovebites perspective - it's their weaker song (for me). But for many, many bands this song would be the pinnacle of their ability.... So - point of view depends on where you sit!
@@GrayFox14 Each of us looks at things differently and may have a different opinion. That is why I wrote "for me" in my statement. You think differently and I respect that.
And is my opinion because it's not speed or thrash metal? No, I don't think so, that's not the criterion I follow. We are talking about our personal feelings and I personally value 'Epilogue' much, much higher than 'Dancing with the Devil'. It's still a great song, but it didn't knock me off my feet, and 'Epilogue' - even though it's so different to what we usually hear from the Lovebites - did that. And that's just it.
I think it's always difficult to react to songs that have been plucked individually out of a concert . The context , position in the playlist etc is lost . It's difficult for any band to play an entire gig at the tempo of the majority of Lovebites songs - for one thing Haruna would probably have a heart attack , God forbid , and Midori and Miyako's arms would drop off . Any reaction is subjective especially when a song is different from a band's normal output and your score is fair IMHO - it's not my favourite Lovebites song either but when the bar is set so high there are going to be songs which are better than others - this is one of the others !
Totally got what you were saying. Totally agree, great song but seen the ladies have more powerful songs. Appreciate you taking the time to explain it. Shows how much respect you have not only for the band but for the fans
For me it's too R&B on the vocals, there are some Lovebites songs that I prefer the studio version over live. This song is an example
@funny railroad crossing same here with u..i think this song is good but asami voice and the way she sang it didn't work for me..like u said it was too R&B on the vocals..but beside the vocals i still like it,catchy and not heavy..
Not every song can be a masterpiece, but I do think Miyako was rocking out on this particular song more than the rest of the concert combined - speaking of which, with (if I remember correctly) Signs of Deliverance coming up next month (and I assume already filmed), I think this means you've pretty much seen the entire Zepp Diver City concert now (there might be a couple songs you saw the music video instead of the Diver City version, but I think you've reacted to pretty much every song they played at the concert) - so you might as well get the DVD or BluRay and enjoy the whole show in its entirety now :)
@@GrayFox14 Sorry if my sentence was poorly constructed, the comments about Miyako were unrelated thoughts relative the first half of the sentence. By rocking out, I meant she was being more animated on stage, moving around, etc. I guess I linked the thoughts together as maybe a more animated performance by the usually more reserved Miyako was good even if he was mildly underwhelmed by the song itself.
Its not a fantastic song from Lovebites.. but a fun song. 7,7 is a good score. Thank you
Fair enough. I thought that it was one of their weaker songs as well. I probably would have rated it 7.5.....," Golden Destination", is a ripper of a song.
This song is at the bottom of my Lovebites list too 😐
Songs in this concert are fast so they needed slower song in the middle of the show. This song is different so 7.7 is ok score i guess. Btw.i liked your reaction bro
I totally get why you gave it that score, but I still dig the score. Love the lyrics and personality that come through in this song, and that it signifies support for Midori as a songwriter. the fact that it's not as complex a tune as the ones Miyako writes is ok: it's a change of pace and that is why Miyako is a genius that few others can ever hope to achieve. Miyako and her genius are the reasons I think Lovebites is (possibly) the greatest band in the world, but this song is the reason my heart loves them so much, if that makes sense. But it's all good; I appreciate and understand your review!
Honestly that's a very very kind score for this song. Let's ask people this, if everyone that knows this band closes their eyes and pretend this is the first time they heard lovebites, would they even call this song more than "decent"? This is definitely, and by a landslide, their weakest song(and performance) for me. Not every song can be "the best", if people get mad over this simple fact, which is honestly nothing to get butthurt about, well it's their problem. 🤘
I cant say its a bad preformance, because of Asami...but overall...as I wrote myself, she is the one saving it. Interesting what you say...about closing eyes. If I never heard about Lovebites and heard this on radio, I would never looked for more songs. Not the impressive metal compositions (faster or slower) they can play and not a genre/sound I normally care about. Same with Spellbound, since I more or less hate 80s "synth metal". And same here, the live performance good, because its fun to watch
Strange how these characters state their opinion as fact, including the reactor hosts, who's claim to fame is giving opinions of others actually doing something useful with their lives..
It's also not one of my Favs. Of course Lovebites has also some .7 songs :) (But I'm pretty sure they have no songs under 7 even for your taste * ok im not sure what you will think of Spellbound .. :)
I only wanted to request it for the list, but have at least 5 or 6 other songs which I would prioritize first.
7.7....is Fine. Is a mid ballad . Funky ...🤘🏼👑🐺
I agree with you about Asami's vocals on the last part of the song. Its cool to see her bringing some of her background music formation, but in some points sound a little bit off, I don't think that she needs to take of this part, but a well thinked voice aprouch maybe turn this part much better.
Agree with your evaluation. Asami's presentation of the lyrics was the highpoint of the song.
I love this song., it is something different as the band shows how they are exploring their ranges...Definitely felt a 60s upbeat MOTOWN feel., Also I don't feel people should judge you for your opinion., it is your reaction to what your tastes are to begin with...🐺🐺🐺🐺🐺🤘🤘🤘🤘🤘
Interesting thing - I was also thinking of "what band this song sounds like?"... But in my mind`s eye - not Motley Crue, but Whitesnake appeared )
Well they have studied 80-90 metal so there is lots of bands that sounded this way back in the day... but still. They take it to a 2.0 version. I think this is an early song from them... they even play on their old guitars...
I thought of the same thing brotha.
@@davidornberg it's from their third album, Electric Pentagram (2019) and this live version was only some months later.
@@GrayFox14 : thanks, I thought i had already bought it during December 2019 and didn't check before posting.
imagine you're driving all day long in a high speed and you need to rest and relaxing yourself for a moment, this song should be "the rest area".
i think that you just got tired of lovebites. i love your reactions but they never deserve less than low 8's. have a great day!!
FACTS !! HARUNA's 🥁⭐🏆double kicks drive this band on every single track. She's nitroglycerine in a thimble. 🤘🐺🤘
Yeah! Well I Love this song 😂🤟🐺🙏❣
I feel like this song fits Asami's vocals very well cuz of the groovy, R&B feel. Idk if you've heard Before He Cheats by Carrie Underwood but this song reminds me of a rock version of that, especially with Asami's attitude during the performance strutting around onstage, and the lyrics are somewhat similar too. Very understandable score, solid song with great guitar work as usual but not their best at all.
Lovebites is my absolute favorite band. That said, your score was fair. This really isn't one of their best songs. I appreciate your honesty.

i stand 100% with you on this review i do like the song but it is not lovebites at their best it does sound pop rock from the 80's that was playing on the radio.
I always try to guess your score before you give it and my guess was a 7.9, so wasn't far off. I think if any Lovebites fan was forced to rank all the songs from Lovebites, this would be in the bottom 10, probably bottom 5. For a bottom of the barrel Lovebites song to still get a 7.7 says a lot about how great Lovebites is.
@@GrayFox14 You are so damn entertaining
Asami has so much fun in this one. And I think she is worth it :)
Other than that - I like it. It is fun and good to listen to.
It is not their usual super technical speed stuff. But, it has feeling.
Hey I have been a fan since 2017 and I have no issue with your review or score. This is their weakest (IMHO) song and was one of their first. To start at a 7.7 would be a dream for any band. Compare it to any of their latest songs and their there is no debate. Love the MC match, MC wish they could ever of been this good. David, you need to enlighten some followers, maybe Hendrix Hey Joe at Monterey 1967, or Cream or or be even Alvin Lee at Woodstock, I'm, Going Home, just to show how much and how far music has come and that great musicianship has always been around to appreciate.
This song is on Electric Pentagram so it is one of their more recent songs. It is, however, the first of the two songs that Midori has composed with Mao. It is good for a first Lovebites composition but it is a below average Lovebites song. Midori did much better with Glory to the World.
What really puts me off is that in early times I think Midory played an FRX, I guess. Then very prominent I only saw her playing an ESP E-II FR QM RDB or STLBK for dropped D, later customized with golden gear, all in all very little exceptoins to the E-II. I only know two exceptions, an Arrow for show purpose and an acoustic when needed. Switching guitars for Miyako is normal for me for Midori her guitars are signature. It really puts me off for no reason. For the sound or the tone, can anybody tell me why? Also with the Kemper you can alter so much, the ESP has a huge capacitor with a straight tone. You could emulate a wobble of small caps when needed. Is it for show purpoase only? Am I too picky? Am I too "whatever"? I just want to knwo why. Can anybody tell me?
i Think they must did this song for commercial. Its just a radio song for the people. Thats not really LoveBites. Thats my opinon!
You did great work.i appreciate that. (Plz. dont be to hard to me,my english is terrible. i am 54 and my last english Lesson was in 1982)
I was thinking about Deep Purple Vibes
Thank you for being honest. I like this song but it is not any where even close to the top of my fav list. I do like that it is a change of pace and do enjoy listening to it.
The moment I saw the title, I knew there was going to be the lowest score for the Lovebites. I totally agree with you. I also rate this one all the way in the back, as the very last one. I mean it is an "ok" song, but it is not what you are used to seeing from Lovebites. They simply have no fillers in their albums. THIS is the lowest one, and even this one is a 7.7 song, which tells a lot about the quality they produce. Not sure if it is suggested yet, but I would like to see you to react to the new Lovebites Bassist... Who is FAMI, and with her song "Alien Alien (cover)". Link here: czcams.com/video/Q_UqztwYAOU/video.html I kind of wish some premium member would suggest that one. Would be interesting to see how you view their new bassist... being bassist yourself. If it is there, you can add me to the list.
@@GrayFox14 WTF?? Everywhere in the comments, with your bullshit? What kind of troll are you??😂 You jump on everybody not giving this song a top score? You mean that you DECIDE what is god or what is not good?? 😅 Everybody with other taste than you, are no fans or just dont understand music. Its most comical to see such people... 😁
I like this song. But not Asami's vocal outro in this performance. The studio version sounds better (the vocal outro is still there, just not as exaggerated/vibrato'd).
A song that will never go to Lovebites "best of", however most of the bands will put it in their "best of" if was their song.
And David, youre in some looooooong selfexplaining mode.. :)
As most thinking persons know, no band has a catalogue of only 9.x songs. There has to be at least a few lower marks as nobody is perfect. This is one of those for me. Not a favorite. But for a low point it's ok 🙂You have spoiled us with high marks, a few 9,4s and .3s so... No band has consistently top songs, not even Lovebites
Like a deep purple
I see your Motley Crue there.
Hey Dave i have a tip for you LOVEBITES has a song covert from JUDAS PRIEST
P A I N K I L L E R
IS perfect
I agree with you absolutely, it's kinda meh....good song but not great in my opinion and I'm a huge lovebites fan.
hey david can you react to Lovebites Bravehearted daughters of the dawn live from tokyo 2019 please let me know what you think
thats a very good one
It's in the que.
@@THEDavidHeretic k thanks brother

Lovebites loves to experiment, that was one of the songs. It's a good song but not the best song by Lovebites.
have you "cleaned up"...? 😉
7.7 is a fair score, for me this is the most mediocre song by lovebites, both in terms of the structure of the song and technically
It's a good song however with that being said I've heard better from them
7.7 is actually too high....and that I say even if I am a Lovebites addict! If it wasnt for Asamis live performance, it is like any rock song out there...
Cheeky Asami moves, together with the lyrics, is funny. I have seen this with subtitles and I need them to understand. I dont even know why you talk for minutes about such high score!? 😅
@@GrayFox14 what a bunch of bullshit talking! I suppose your math knowledge is not the best, if you think almost 8 out of 10 is not very much! THAT I wanted to point out, since he kept going about that people should hate the "low" score. When he started to talk about it, I expected max a 6 (wich is STILL more good than bad...if you know ANY math)! And dont you care about my addiction...or I dont give a f*ck what you think about addiction! You mean as addicted, ALL somgs from a band must be rated 10/10? Somebody here wrote it was their weakest song. And if 8 is the lowest a band gets, its incredible!
I can finally say, that I have never put so much money in a band, as Lovebites. I have bought everything they released. Some in many versions, Including all vinyls. And I have barely played any other music in a long time. I dont know what addiction is to you? To score 10/10 on all songs from a band? That must be some sick obsession...that need medication 😅
I like Lovebites but this song it's a little bit out of is essence. I'm with you... This song it's a weak one from the band and the vocal sounds like a long and abouring "vibrato". Sorry to disagree about the score. For me it's a 6. They can do better than this.🤟
this song may not be everyones taste but its surely not weak
@@GrayFox14 i don't know your music taste but speaking about bands, there are many trying to do something different, exploring or mixing some influence on other area. For me, and I like Lovebites, this kind of moisture of "hairy metal?" and his band essence doesn't work so well ( as you see I'm not talking about the band but only they choices). For example: I like Pink Floyd and also Dream Theater but they also have some songs a little bit weaker than we expect to hear from. As a listener and fan, sometimes seems to me only the proposal to fill albums or trying different sounds (unfortunately sometimes goes wrong). If I'm right or wrong that's my opinion but I respect the different opinions than mine. Only one thing... Weak on a great band doesn't mean 1 or 2 points that's why I gave 6. When I see great performers I never speak badly about them as individual or as a band only about their choices. Be well.
I'll say it, I don't like her vocals on this song. I'm have never been a big fan of her vocals to be honest. The band overall is great, and she can sing, just her voice seams always strained (by her tone, not technique) and her vibrato is a bit annoying to me. She's not a bad singer; just personally not my tone/style of singer I like. One example I've never heard on this channel is Eleine. Madeleine is a GREAT singer..... what happened to introducing David to some great vocalists in metal??

ELEINE - Dancing In Hell
you dont seem to unterstand how this channel work (like many)
@@hamishalexander5048 I know how the channel works. I can express my desire those that "pay" to choose songs try some new bands/vocalist rather than exhausting the same bands over and over.
I really love (no pun intended) Lovebites but this song just doesn't do it for me.
