    Real bass by 'The Bomber' Mark King. He would record two bass tracks and 2 synth tracks.

  • @tinkler4
    @tinkler4 7 หลายเดือนก่อน +21

    I love this track also their biggest US hit ‘Something About You’ These two hits introduced me to Level 42. The basslines are dope. I always thought the bass was programmed? Until I watched the lead singer Mark King play it live. Just blew my away!

  • @glenn20081965

    @KARASCOUSIN 7 หลายเดือนก่อน +18

    all synth generated ? bruhhhhh. this is a real band, you should see them live. Mark King is one of the best bass players in the world. They were originally a funk-fusion band . Listen to "Love Games".. synth generated... Mark King and Mike Lindup are the lead vocals. Mike is awesome in "starchild"

  • @mattking5936
    @mattking5936 7 หลายเดือนก่อน +34

    😂 he's not even playing the bass! Mark King is one of the best bass players in popular music, he's a legend.

  • @iancresswell8470
    @iancresswell8470 7 หลายเดือนก่อน +6

    That is right. Mark king was one of the best bass players ever and was seen as the fastest at this time. Quality band. I loved everything they did. Love seeing others listening to them and liking them too.

    I was a young woman of the eighties. When Level 42 came into my world, as a trained guitarist I was in love. A lead singer and base guitarist was extraordinary. My twin sister and I were on a train to our first posting in the Canadian Navy. We had our shared Walkman and were dancing on the train. They still sing live today. I saw them live. Awesome British Invasion. To sing as the lead on base is similar to Phil Collins as lead singer on the drums. The melodically challenged theme and harmonic balance was incredible. Something new, something fresh, something dynamic. Love that you are experiencing this Derick Canadian Grandma Lori. C.

    @highheartwellness 4 หลายเดือนก่อน +2

    Great reaction! Love this song. As you've notice Level 42 has awesome instrumentation. And love the bridge bringing in Mike Lindup's falsetto vocals. He also sings the pre-chorus for their song Something About You. Another awesome track, you gotta check it out.

    Woohoo glad you reacted to another classic! Of course, in the U.S. they never replay this anywhere anymore. This is my 2nd favorite from them after Something About You. Gotta thank my mom for introducing me to it 😁

    They had many synth-driven songs!

  • @BBaker-sf9vc
    @BBaker-sf9vc 7 หลายเดือนก่อน +4

    You like synth, try "Move out" "Situation" by "Yaz" or "Only You" or "Dont go". You won't be disappointed.

    It's a music video.
    They play their instruments.

  • @mikekaraoke
    @mikekaraoke 7 หลายเดือนก่อน +4

    You said Mark King is holding the bass but not playing it-Ummm he was playing the bass on the record was a combo of synth bass and real bass as you said later on in the video!
    Must say don't know how you haven't heard this song considering was a hit in the US. But then you said you had a remix of the song so you have heard it then which would make sense.
    Also their album: Running in the Family was a hit album on Billboard hot 200 getting top 30!

    @caucasianbulldog6057 7 หลายเดือนก่อน +2

    Mark King was the main vocalist but Mike Lindup often sang too with a more falsetto style. The Gould brothers who were fantastic musicians too completed the band on guitar and drums. Both are sadly no longer with us.

    • @Sattel42
      @Sattel42 6 หลายเดือนก่อน

      Boon Gould died in 2019.
      Phil Gould is still alive. 🤷‍♂️
      Level 42 touring still and festival are save for 2024 in Germany, Switzerland and UK.
      A tour in 2025 is announced from Mark King during the last concerts in November this year (2023)!

    Among the many good songs they recorded, their 1982 hit Leaving me now was their best in my opinion. A very sad song though.

    @sarablack2547 7 หลายเดือนก่อน +1

    Mark king slaps bass!
    The synth player mike lindup does the higher register of singing cause mark can't so they share the singing.
    Please do running in the family and there must be something about you.

  • @jerrycote659
    @jerrycote659 6 หลายเดือนก่อน

    Mike Lindup so Hot 🔥 getting down while banging out on keyboard/synth and takes over on lead midway through and brings a smooth and sexy vibe to the song. Easily my favorite Level 42 track. Too bad you didn’t react to the extended video version, more Mike and Mark in other scenes with more smooth 80s dance moves. So good!

    hahhahahahaha first time ever hearing someone say great synth for a Level 42 song - Mike Lindup would be so proud. But i had to laugh when you said even the bassline is probably played on a synth.....dude go search for Level 42 Mark King and come back and say it is played on a synth 😜🤪😝 BTW R.I.P Boon Gould one of if not the most underrated guitarrist of all time

    Hey Dereck- I subscribed a couple of years ago because I really loved the thought and excitement you put into your Madonna reactions. I don’t know if I missed something but I am really disappointed in you dropping her from your channel. I really like the variety of the artists you react to but many of us still would like to see more Madonna reactions. Especially at a time when she is embarking on an acclaimed world tour. It is with regret that I unsubscribe from your channel. Good luck

    That ‘ERA’ is coming to an end.
    Computers do the playing now. No need for a human to put in Hours and Years of practice work anymore.
    Just press a button, program a sequence and ‘produce’ a Song.
