This week I'm looking at Love Bites by Halestorm. First of all, I have to say that Lzzy Hale is a monster vocalist- that girl can sing. The band is named after and her brother the drummer. I first came across Lzzy Hale singing with Lindsey Stirling- I think?- a few years ago. And while Halestorm has a lot of good songs, this one might be my favorite just for the sheer aggressiveness and energy of it. I mean, judge for yourself lol.
This is also unabashedly a hard rock song, so don't be turned off by the beginning. Unless you hate hard rock, in which case- you might want to haha. Seriously though I think it's pretty clear what this one is about. And if you weren't awake before the song started, you will be shortly!
So what do you think?
Lyrics
Don't listen what your girlfriend says
She reads those magazines
That say you failed the test
You don't have what she needs
I slither like a viper
And get you by the neck
I know a thousand ways to help you forget about her
That bitch can eat her heart out
Love bites, but so do I, so do I
Love bites, but so do I, so do I
Love bites
My lips are pale and vicious
You're foaming at the mouth
You've suffered in the darkness
I'll suck the pain right out
So come and taste the reason
I'm nothing like the rest
I kiss you in a way you'll never forget about me
That chick can eat her heart out
Love bites, but so do I, so do I
Love bites, but so do I, so do I, so do I
It checks you in and kicks you down
And chews you up and spits you out
It messes with your sanity by twisting all your thoughts around
They say it's blind they say it waits but every time it seals your fate
And now it's got you by the balls it won't let go until you fall
I was down and out, got up I said "hey love I've had enough"
I've felt pleasure without pain
My soul you'll never tame
Love bites, but so do I
Love bites, but so do I, so do I
Love bites, but so do I, so do I, so do I
Love bites, but so do I, so do I
Love bites
Love bites
That bitch can eat her heart out
Love bites, but so do I, so do I
Love bites, but so do I, so do I
Love bites
My lips are pale and vicious
You're foaming at the mouth
You've suffered in the darkness
I'll suck the pain right out
So come and taste the reason
I'm nothing like the rest
I kiss you in a way you'll never forget about me
That chick can eat her heart out
Love bites, but so do I, so do I
Love bites, but so do I, so do I, so do I
It checks you in and kicks you down
And chews you up and spits you out
It messes with your sanity by twisting all your thoughts around
They say it's blind they say it waits but every time it seals your fate
And now it's got you by the balls it won't let go until you fall
I was down and out, got up I said "hey love I've had enough"
I've felt pleasure without pain
My soul you'll never tame
Love bites, but so do I
Love bites, but so do I, so do I
Love bites, but so do I, so do I, so do I
Love bites, but so do I, so do I
Love bites
Love bites
You got me this week! I don't think I have ever heard this, or at least, I don't remember it, but I do recall when all the badass female rockers were big. Was this bad a contemporary of like, Lita Ford? Definitely woke me up this morning.
ReplyDeleteOkay, I was thrown because I was totally expecting Love Bites by Def Leppard. LOL I don't remember this one at all but this girl rocks! :)
ReplyDeleteSo I've never really heard of this before but man, what a voice! I'm going to be checking out more!
ReplyDeleteOoo I like it!
ReplyDeleteThat's a good song, I like that one.
ReplyDeleteThanks for sharing this one. I'd never heard it before, but I like it. :)
ReplyDeleteI've never heard of this but I bet my brother knows of it! He loves Lindsey Stirling. I do like the lyrics though!
ReplyDeleteLol, I'm with Tanya because I was totally expecting Love Bites by Def Leppard too. This is a cool song as well though. It has been a while since I've listened to anything that would be classified as hard rock.
