As one commenter on my poll said, “The winner took it all!”, so here it is - “The Winner Takes It All” by ABBA off of their album, “Super Trouper” which came out in 1980 and featured the incredible Rutger Gunnarsson on bass. (edit: I just learned that it was Mike Watson who played bass on this song, could've fooled me)
This song won out by a non-wavering 70/30 split. Maybe I should have specified that both songs in the poll were by ABBA, as I’m sure that more than one person thought that “One of Us” was the Joan Osbourne tune, but every vote counts…no electoral college here. Both ABBA tunes have, in my opinion, great bass-lines and neither were easy to learn, but “One of Us” was a bit of a bear and I look forward to uploading it at some point in the near future.
What can I say, ABBA wrote some great tunes and this one was no exception. I think their arrangements, melodies, background vocals, and orchestrations are incredibly sophisticated for, what was considered to be, “Pop Music”.
I didn’t have anything in mind to write about, so I’ll just do a “stream of consciousness” thing.
00:21 - I wish that higher note would have come out stronger, but the only way I could reliably get both notes to ring out was by lightly plucking the string from beneath/below with my middle finger. For some reason, when I played it normally, I would often wind up muting the lower note. Playing it this way had its perils as well - too hard and it would sound like a slap bass-line. Too soft and it would sound weak. I went weak on this take.
00:39 - Not sure what this smile was bout, I’ll chalk it up to things looking up in the storyline and my mood being affected by the lyrics.
00:48 - This fill was so intense that I tried eating my face from the inside out. In all seriousness, Rutger’s playing has such a spontaneity to it that I find incredibly difficult to transcribe. To me, he seems to just float around the neck, dropping his fingers and hitting notes at random, but all the notes he lands on are the perfect ones. It really took an immense amount of concentration my part to play that with any sort of “smoothness” and I can only imagine what it must be like to play with such ease.
01:06 - This little fill took a surprisingly long time to get down.
01:37 - Another variation of the fill at 00:48. I knew that both the notes that slid down were different, but I really had a hard time distinguishing exactly what they were. It might have been a combination of his tone being a bit “bassy” along with his “loose and fluid” manner of playing. Notice how he slides down, then back up and then down again. Obviously please with myself, I smile again.
01:56 - I love the the way the feel of the song changes at this point. It has a “military” feel to me as the lyrics take a more serious tone and the melody reaches higher, intensified by the background vocals and orchestrations.
02:38 - The stupid.
02:58 - That voice!
03:42 - I thought the slide here was a very nice touch.
03:59 - I play, unaccompanied, through a verse and chorus.
Remember my friend Mark who passed away suddenly last month? Lynn and I took his two cats into our home. We had a visit today from CPS (Cat Protective Services) to do a wellness check. The caseworkers were Mark’s Daughter, Rhapsody, and his two Granddaughters, Sophia and Genevieve, along with Mark’s Sister, Angela. They’d never met the kitten, Paris, but they knew Gabby well and she was as happy to see them as they were to see her. There were some tears and lots of pictures taken and then the girls were off to find some of our other cats who were hiding throughout the house. We ended the visit with a nice lunch on the Newburgh Waterfront where we told the girls that Gabby was their cat and we were just taking care of her for them and that they could visit with her or ask for pictures anytime they wanted.
I'm playing the Guild B-301(formerly 302)A. It's been fitted with a Babicz 3 Point Replacement Bridge and a Zero-Mod Thumb-Rest.
EHO THE FUCK WANTS TO LISTEN TO THIS CRAP
Let's find out. EHO!!!
@@TJH3113 whoke
Me. I want to listen. This song has so much to give if you listen carefully.
Lets see your song writing and exquisite playing and thoughtful giving to people that appreciate it. But It’s easier to be prick, so stick with that...
I love it
My favourite thing about these songs is that I can try listening to the other instruments and find out how amazing they sound even though they're not front and centre. Truly hidden gems.
Very good point.
I am a real stickler for accurate covers. You sir have impressed me 🙂
I try! Thank you.
Such amazing Bass tone as always! The diversity in music, technique, consistency, and tone is what makes you unique from other Bass covers. Great work here man!
I'm glad you like it and thanks for the very kind words. I greatly appreciate them.
@@TJH3113 You are very welcome man! Don't stop the great work!
0:55-1:09 how has this never been classified as the Funkiest Bassline Ever??
Good question.
Dancing Queen bassline is far more interesting.
Ahhh Troy, what a great way to start my day here, with another awesome ABBA cover to demonstrate your exemplary talent and the massively underrated genius of the great Rutger Gunnarsson.
That bass tone is warmer that a mug of hot chocolate on a cold rainy day.
Thank you, I'm glad you liked it.
Speaking of warm, we just opened the window for the first time since last Wednesday. The heat and humidity finally broke.
It was "big" Mike Watson who playd this not Rutger.
Lovely song, reminds me of my mother who was singing along when I was a young kid. Unfortunately she passed away..... Love the bass-lines of the ABBA songs, they are certainly not easy.. So thank you very much and well done.....!!!
Derk-Jan van Vugt so sorry about your Mother’s passing😢.
Thank you.
TJH3113 and thank you for reminding at her....😌
Loving these "extended endings"
I guess I usually do that when I don't want the song to end.
2:38. I laughed out loud. Thank you, sir.
You got off easy, I had the misfortune of deciding that I needed a drink of my 7Up around 2:36. So, not only did I nearly choke to death from laughing so hard, but I also had to spend the rest of the song (which I went back and re-watched) cleaning off my screen. That'll teach me to be thirsty during one of Troy's performances.
Sorry about that.🤣
@@TJH3113 No worries...totally worth it.
Paul Willis - If you've been a Troy follower for a while, you'd know that he tends to mime random lines sometimes. Always catching is off guard, like poor Mr. Boogabaga and his 7Up found out. 😂
That is beautiful, ABBA's bass player was a top man in my book,
Thanks, I’m very glad you liked it. Yeah, ABBA had a few top notch bassist working with them.
I can't stop watching your videos, you are extremely gifted. Thankyou for sharing your gift with the world. "Thankyou for the music" Thankyou Abba.
Wow, thank you Claire!
大好きなアバのベースラインがこんなに複雑でイカしていたとは。素晴らしい演奏に👍
はい、ABBAの曲には信じられないほどのベースラインが含まれていました。 ご覧いただき、コメントをお待ちしております。 気をつけて。
You are a great Bass Player, Ive used your videos to learn songs to play on my Bass! and they have helped me the whole 5 years of Playing Bass. mostly by watching where your hands go. and reading Tabs. Self taught. Thanks!!!
Thanks for the kind words. That was very nice of you to say. Keep up the good work, there's nothing wrong with being self-taught and you've got a ton of resources at your disposal to learn as much as you'd like.
This is great, so glad to have found your videos. I’ve just started playing again after 25 yrs, and loving this. Thanks for the inspiration 👍👍
Thank you so much and welcome back!
Awesome skills!!!
I didn’t want it to end either so bravo for the little extra there!
Thanks!
I guess I'll do that once and a while when I don't want the song to end. Glad you liked it.
I don't play guitar but I am still inspired! Thanks.
I gotta check out ABBA more. Every song I've heard had such great compositions and the melodies always get stuck in my head. What a great bass line! You played it extremely well and smoothly. Love the tone.
I like it when you put time stamps in your description and give a play by play. Really neat seeing it.
Yes, we all should, shouldn't we?
Thanks a lot.
Goose bumps, adrenaline,hyperventilating Troy!! I'm blown away by this video!!! You've petrified me. OMG what a song. Good old ABBA. I love this Troy and I'll listen 'til the cows come home. Truly a real winner my friend. Thanks Troy!!! Bravo!!!!!!! Marvine :-)
I hope you didn't wind up in the hospital Marvine! Thanks a lot, I'm glad you enjoyed it.
I love the ending. great for playing along
I’m glad you liked it, thanks a lot!
Amazing how your videos make me fall in love with songs (that I have not heard in some time) all over again! Magnificent!
What a wonderful comment and compliment. Thank you.
Hey troy: A few weeks ago I saw an Abba Tribute called ATC (Abba - The Concert). They are from Sweden and are incredible. None of the campy Swedish accent crap that other tributes can trend to. And....Mike Watson is touring with them. What a treat to see an orginal studio contributor still getting it done!
I've come close to seeing a few ABBA tributes, but always beg off at the last minute. I'll look up videos of them on TH-cam and some looked cheesy. Others were obviously singing to tracks. Some look as though they are franchises and have different members in different countries. I'll keep an eye out for the one you mentioned. I think that Mike Watson played some bass-lines that are as good as the stuff Gunnarson wrote... like this song.
Most of the reason I loved this song was for the killer bass line. You nail it, whoa. Now I don't have to play the song and crank the bass, I can just come here.
Awesome! Glad I could help. Take care.
Oh Troy the only thing I can d is press the play button...otherwise I am in a cattonic stupor. The best ever!!! Thanks Troy!! Wow!!!!!!!!
Thank you Marvine.
GREAT PLAYING. THATS MY FAVORITE ABBA SONG.
Thank you very much!
You have made a lovely job of this challenging bass line my good man!
ABBA were an incredible band and their bass lines were an essential if under-appreciated aspect of this. both Mike Watson (from my home town) and Rutger Gunnarson are absolute beasts of bass guitar playing. I could listen to their work every day and indeed teach their lines to many of my bass pupils.
Thank you very much. I agree on the high quality of their music and, in particular, many of their bass-lines. I was surprised when I learned that this song was not played by Rutger. I thought it had some of his signature qualities to it.
@@TJH3113 They are difficult to tell apart aren't they? I've often had that problem. I think, at a push, I prefer Rutgers. They seem a little more fluid and whimsical. Tough choice though. Again, very well done to you. :)
Once again, a song I've heard a million times but for whatever reason, never heard the bassline... so awesome. Great playing and pushing me down memory lane as always
Thanks for listening and for taking the time to comment.
Great job! I love how through watching your excellent videos I discover how many unassuming "pop" songs have such great bass lines, and this tune is certainly no exception. Keep it up, my friend!
Thank you.
Great job as usual! Love the tone on that Guild!
Thanks a lot.
Great choice, Bass line. and melodic structure to this song.
One of the most painful lines ever delivered ",... and I understand, you've come to shake my hand". (Ugh!,.. a real gut punch)
Then in the next chorus she just lets the lines ring out furiously, "The Winner Takes it AAAAAAALLLLLLLL!,..."
The 2 women in ABBA (Agnetha and Anni) were 2 of the most underrated singers in Pop/Rock history. They hit every nuance and dynamic perfectly. Amazing considering they were Swedish!
Thank you and, I agree.
True. At first I thought you were suggesting that the lyric was poorly written or cringeworthy and I was going to disagree with you. But, after rereading your comment, I don't believe that was what you meant.
ABBA is one of those bands that, when I'm learning and playing their songs, I often get "moved" by a musical part, a lyric, or a melody. It's one of the reasons I enjoy them so much.
Thanks for watching and for taking the time to leave such a great comment Sam.
@@TJH3113 - You heard me right. I was not being ironic. That moment of the song, and that lyric - about a former lover who has now "come to shake her hand", and just "be friends" after a long battle is so sad. Especially with the dynamic at that point. The song is at its quietest moment and her voice cracks with vulnerability when she delivers the line,.. "You've come to shake my hand",.. then continues.. "I apologize if it makes you feel sad, Seeing me so tense, no self-confidence",.. (then speaks quietly) "but you see" - then furiously belts out that "The Winner Takes it AAAAAAALLLLLLLL!,..." -- in frustration .. like a great purging.. 2 times .. then that great arrangement with Piano and background vocals kicks in and drives it home. Just incredible songwriting and production. Sometimes I just listen to that ending over and over again.
Most people do not realize how painful most ABBA songs were. Except for Dancing Queen, most of the other hits were at least tinged with a lot of sadness and longing. "S.O.S." and "Fernando" (great Bass line in that one too) come to mind as well.
I re-discovered them about 20 years ago after a painful breakup. I heard "Knowing Me Knowing You" on the radio. There is another one. Real haunting. These songs capture the pain of a breakup so well it is incredible. Maybe the best songs ever - at capturing that sad feeling - sad for you, sad for them, frustrated, wanting to still fight but ready to give up.. UGH!
As always, thanks for the great work and I appreciate how engaged you are with commenters.
As someone who also makes a lot of videos I am not always so engaged! LOL.
I often like to watch your videos to help with some of the fills and embellishments in songs I'm learning. And to hear someone with much more experience play parts I love. But I've enjoyed this particular one because of how much fun you seemed to have playing it. It's infectious! Such a fun song. Thank you.
Thanks Aislinn, that's nice to hear. I have to tell you, the ABBA covers have been some of the most enjoyable to learn and play. There's just so much great stuff going on at once.
@@TJH3113 For me at least, those really fun bass parts can get kind of hidden too. It's awesome to pull them out and give them a chance to shine.
One of ABBA's best and immaculate cover.
Truth... and thanks!
You are definitely the winner Troy!! How do you do it!!!!! I thnank God for you Troy!!!!!!!!!!!!
I agree with you. ABBA made some really good music. Although not a big fan (my father was) The reason I know so much of their music. Well done Troy. You never disappoint.
Right?
There have been a couple of comments in this thread where it was said, "...my Father was a fan of ABBA." Which makes me wonder if they were as much fans of the music as they were of the front-women. Probably a bit of both.
Thanks a lot.
@@TJH3113 lol. I'm sure the women had something to do with it. But he really enjoyed their music. Take A Chance On Me was his favorite. He was also a fan of The Doobie Brothers. He had some good taste in music. Enjoy your weekend Troy 😎👍
i was searching for a good song with cool basslines to play for a school project and arrange it myself but… i think i’ll try to reproduce every single note of this cover it is sooo good🤭
It's a gorgeous piece of music. Have fun with it. Thanks and take care!
It's quite obvious you really enjoyed playing that great song!! Excellent as always Troy!
Sorry about that. Thank you very much.
@@TJH3113 Sorry about what?! I love your playing man :)
Beautifully done. Thank you.
Many thanks!
What a talent, it’s great to see how much you enjoy playing.
Thank you very much!
Just rocked, wittingly with such incomprehensible riffs.
Thanks so much Martin.
After a while I calmed down and thought about it the rest of the night. :-)
Awesome!!! And so glad you continued to play after the song playback ended.
Thanks very much, sir. The Super Swedes' best song, in my humble opinion, and my own favourite song of all time. Sheer melancholic GENIUS!!!
Thank you! I'm very glad that you liked it. I'm currently working on "If It Wasn't for the Nights" which I'd never heard before it was suggested. It's another great one for sure!
@@TJH3113 Great choice! Can't wait to hear that! Just received my first ever bass today (never even touched one before, but fancy having a dabble at least). I play piano/keyboards and a little sax (or at least try) so looking forward to trying out a new instrument, and these videos have really inspired me to give the bass a go. Whether I'll ever be good enough to play these, only time will tell ... But I intend to give it a go... Eventually... Thanks again for the entertainment and inspiration!!! 👍👍👍🎸🎸🎸
@@TalesFromTheScript Congratulations and be patient with yourself. Play a variety of material that is above, at, and beneath your skill level and have fun.
my go to guy for bass lessons and cover. amazing indeed. many thanks. well done Troy...
Wow, thanks!
Thanks so much for posting. What a superb song and a great cover. The "break" starting at 1:25 has got to be one of the best ever!
Thanks, I'm glad that you liked it.
hello @TJH3113 I pulled the trigger and purchased a Glarry Bass with a 20 W AMP.
That’s awesome Richard! Let me know how things come along. Congratulations!
it just doesn't get any better than this Troy!!!!!! I love this! Have a great weekend my friend!!!Marvine :-)
Thanks Marvine.
@@TJH3113 Troy I am going to try to look at ALL of your videos Troy. :-)
That was just so enjoyable to listen to ! Excellent playing.
I'm really glad you liked it. Thanks!
Love that you added that ending, seems like i keep finding your channel every time i enter a new phase on my music discovery journey haha cheers man :)
Glad you enjoyed it! Take care!
Love your playing and read in the description that you also played One of Us. Please please upload that one!!! Your covers are top notch playing.
Nevermind, you already uploaded it! Oh, another suggestion. Head Over Heels! One of my fav Rutger basslines and ABBA compositions
Done!
I just checked out your suggestion. I'd never heard it before but liked it very much. Keep an eye out for it sometime in the future.
Incredible how you nailed it again. Well done and what a great sound from the Guild
Thank you kindly!
Well done!!! 🎉
Thank you!!!
As always...outstanding.
Thank you very much.
I agree 100% ABBA had some great tunes but seemed to always get sweep to the side by the rock community. I really think you and Lynn taking in the cats was awesome and then to have his family come by and spend time with them and tell the children they are their animals and you guys are just taking care of them for them is above awesome you two are the most incredible people we need more people like y’all in this world then the crazies we have to see on the news daily. Y’all have a wonderful weekend
The were wildly popular in their own right, but, I have to admit, I was one of those who dismissed them as "silly pop" when I was young...and foolish.
Aw, thanks. I know Mark would have done it for us...maybe not all 5, but he'd have certainly done whatever he could have. Rhapsody just cannot have a pet where she lives right now. If that changes, she'd be welcome to take Gabby. Gabby's doing fine but I think she'd be happier as an "only" cat. I only took a couple of pictures as I didn't want to intrude on their moment. They took a ton of pics and video. Maybe I'll share the couple I took through the Community feature on TH-cam.
I've been without internet connection for a week, and this is the first video I watch. Ah, the pleasure! 😄
Wow, that sucks. Glad you're hooked up again. I bet you got some stuff done though.
Thanks a lot. I'm glad you liked it.
One of the things I love about your channel is that I'm constantly hearing music I wouldn't otherwise seek out, and being impressed by the great bass lines present throughout different genres.
Also, if I see a Guild B-series bass, I click the video. :drool:
That's great to hear. The channel has really allowed me to explore a lot of music/bass-lines that I'd always liked but never considered learning.
Yeah, I'm very fond of the Guilds, myself.
Excellent playing, well done. Thank you for sharing!
Thank you very much John.
beatiful playing!
Thanks a lot!
I remember getting the "@&%£" taken out of me when i was younger because i liked what ABBA produced.... almost everyone else was of the mind that if it wasn't 320 bpm thrash or "top group" rock then it wasn't "real" music.
I am, and always have been, more interested in the musical composition of a track ... not just who it's by because i "have" to like a certain genre .... i think you fall into the same category Troy .. of which i can say i'm pretty happy about because we get a varied range of genre here on your channel ... if it was all one thing then i would have hit the unsubscribe button a while back.
So, as always, you pull out another classic and do it justice ... and what more could we want but a great musical score, a fantastic voice and a couple of minutes solely of that Guild. Nice job Mate.
As an aside, you mention a military feel to bits of this track .... i noticed there was a certain "marching, military, percussive" theme to a few of their tracks when they released them .... waterloo, fernando to name the obvious ..
Glad it went well with the visit, that was a nice touch telling the youngsters that you were looking after their cat ... it'll mean a lot to them i think.
Unfortunately, I wholly dismissed them when I was young and naive. I've gained a much greater appreciation for them, so better late than never, I guess.
You are right, I'm definitely more of a "song" person than a "group" person. Rush, of course, was "my" band and I was, for the most part, blindly loyal to most everything they put out. Most everything else I like is on a "per song" basis.
I'm glad you enjoyed the cover and the extended play-along. That usually happens when I find the bass-line particularly interesting and don't want the song to end.
I'm glad I'm not alone in picking up the "military" element in the song.
Thanks again for the great comment.
My dad loved abba. Thank you.
A few people have said that. Which one, Agnetha or Frida?😂 Just kidding.
Thanks for watching and taking the time to comment. Have a great Saturday.
I've said it more than once, but the 70s (even though this song was released in 1980) was the best decade for bass playing. So many great lines across so many musical genres. Wonderful cover and I love to see you having fun with a song as you appear to be here. Thanks for posting.
I'd have to agree with you, overall. Thanks, once again, for watching and taking the time to comment. Just wondering, are you "Ben Cake"? It's hard to tell from the avatar pic, but it looks like you.
@@TJH3113 I am. BenCAKE was a garbage name for my first Gmail address (Ben from Ben Folds and CAKE, well, that's self explanatory). Bubbles the Vampire is my nom de plume for all things internet.
Btw, seeing Ben Folds and CAKE on the same bill this summer. Mark Knopfler in September.
Genial!!! Gran música!! Gran cover!! Esta música no volverá sin duda la mejor época 70s y 80s!!! Gracias por los videos me han ayudado a aprender un poco (claro soy principiante) siempre quise aprender a tocar el bajo y estoy trabajando en ello, soy doctor y casi no tengo tiempo pero siempre encuentro un poco de tiempo para tocar y aprender un poco más día con día... Gracias por tantos buenos covers!! Saludos desde Guatemala!!
Gracias. Tienes razón: nunca volverás a hacer música como esta.
Buena suerte en tu viaje de bajo. Espero que obtengas tanto placer y satisfacción (y frustración) como lo he hecho yo. En lo que respecta al "tiempo", un joven jugador una vez me dijo algo muy sensato que siempre pienso y comparto. Ella dijo: "Bueno, es mejor jugar 15 minutos como día que no jugar".
Gracias y cuídate, doctor.
Gracias por tomarte el tiempo de responder!! Eres un fantástico músico al que admiro mucho. Y esa frase de jugar 15 minutos en el día a no jugar... vaya que tienes Razón!! Un abrazo y cuídate mucho!!
Brilliant!!
Thank you!!
Great cover, congrats!!
Thanks a lot!
Well you dug up yet another schmaltzy pop song with a neat bass line buried in it. Hats off!
Haha...I try. I'm glad you liked it. Thanks.
Excellent!
Thank you.
Love that bass! Regret selling mine years ago. They seriously need to reissue these.
I really like these basses as well. There are always a few for sale on Reverb.
Nicely done mate,good work
Thanks 👍
Wow. What a beautiful bass line. Well done, Troy.
I’d like to suggest you “Slow Down”, from Ozzy Osbourne’s album “Bark at the Moon”!
It is, isn't it? Thank you.
I'll check it out.
Thanks for the reply, Troy!
I love the work of Bob Daisley on this record, “Bark at the Moon”. Precise, clean and very creative.
“Slow Down” is my favorite song. I’m crazy about learning how to play it, so I think I’ll have a chance by watching you playing it! :-)
“Waiting for Darkness” is another fabulous track. Amazing atmosphere and, besides relatively simple, it has a hypnotic bass line.
Yay more disco. You are so amazing. The more I watch, the more i enjoy. Being dyslectic, I rarely read the synopsis, but I've been trying to take the time to do so on yours. Loved the breakdown of what was going on at what time in the song. Also being a parent to only animals, I think what you did for your friends orphans is awesome. Hope someone steps up when I go. Also being dyslectic it takes me a long time to comment like this. But just wanted to say, you are appreciated.
We'll see.
Thanks a lot and thanks for taking the time and energy to battle through your dyslexia in order to read the synopsis and compose your comments. I really do appreciate your effort.
Lynn and I are also parents to animals only and have even gone so far as to make plans in our will for our cats in the unlikely event that we both perish at the same time.
Thanks again. You are appreciated as well.
TJH3113 Thank you again. Luckily the phone pushes the words in the right direction and gives me the words I’m looking for, most of the time. But it does get weird sometimes.
We have the cats covered in the will as well, I just hope the humans that will take custody are as worthy to care as we try to be.
Anyway, thank you for the kind words and for the wonderful content, can’t thank you enough for the joy I get watching and playing along. Have an awesome day buddy.
Your bass covers are amazing!
Thanks so much!
Parabéns perfeito!!!
Muito obrigado!!!
Great again 👍 (regards from a Swedish guy)
I'll certainly take that as a high compliment, coming from a Swede.🤣 Thanks.
Watching you from Belgium. Wow! Well done! I'm trying to play it now.
Awesome. Have fun with it, it is a wonderful song.
Best cover in YT
Thanks! I'm glad you think so.
Amazing
Thanks
Thanks for the update on the kitties. I totally forgot this song!
No problem.
It's a good one, isn't it?
Amazing song. Amazing playing. Bravo!
I think so too! Thanks so much!
I LOVED YOUR PLAYING MAN,really very good playing..I am from Brazil..thanks for share the video.
Thank you very much! I'm glad you liked it.
This is insanely good - bravo!!
Thanks so much John!
sounds Great!
Thanks so much!
ЗАМЕЧАТЕЛЬНО!!!
большое спасибо.
Thanks for this. I’m playing an Abba gig tomorrow and this was missing from the files they sent me but it’s obviously on the set list.
Awesome! I hope it helped.
I remember in my youth (I'm the wrong side of 60) that ABBA were a joke to 'serious' music fans like me. They weren't though, were they? Otherwise the better part of 45 years later we wouldn't be marveling at Troy's shit hot version of the wonderful bass lines. Dancing Queen was awesome too as Troy showed. How many more ace Nordic bass lines lurk in the ABBA back catalogue?
I know Troy doesn't do requests but... He does, I'm sure, investigate some of the suggestions. I don't know whether 'Blur' were popular on your side of the pond but I think 'For Tomorrow' would be worth a listen to?
Same here. I've got a much deeper respect and appreciation for what they did as a group.
I don't think I've ever heard of Blur, but I'll check out the song you mentioned.
Here is my hand as you are deinitely thw WINNER in so many ways. I can't stop the tears Troy!!!!!!!!!
Aw, thank you Marvine. I'm glad you liked it.
ABBA his full of bass Jem's! Good job...nice Bass
Definitely! Thanks!
Beautiful!!!
Thanks.

I think they are too. Thanks for watching and taking the time to comment.
Mate, that was amazing.
Thanks a lot.
Great job I loved it all (even the goofy facial expressions) have you done knowing me ,knowing you before? That's my absolute favorite ABBA bass line!
Thanks..."goofy"? No, I haven't done that one but I'll check it out.
That's a good line. Well done again.
It is, isn't it? Thank you.
Troy, as always you nailed it. I love this song. Not sure if you take requests but I heard Mrs Vandebilt the other day and immediately thought this would be a great song for you to cover. (Assuming you haven’t already covered it.).
Thanks a lot, Cid. I'll check it out. Thanks for the suggestion.
This is fantastic! Imma stop working now and grab my bass, got too much to learn to be wasting my time with work! Great job! *subscribes*
Thanks a lot!
Awesome Bassist. Keep it up.
Thanks, I'll try!
El escenario de fondo le da más emotividad a la interpretación¡¡¡, es broma ,bien tocada con bajo ¡¡
Jaja gracias.
