    This song is nothing without that incredible bass

      I certainly wouldn't say "nothing" but the bass certainly helps it along.

    One of the best bass parts ever written. It's not super technical or anything but it perfectly complements the rest of the song and gives a perfect low end to the song.

    This bass perfectly accompanies the lead guitar and vice-versa ! Steady tempo that moves this song along.

    I use Elixir bass strings. Elixir Strings deliver the full range of bass tones, from fat, round lows to punchy mids and sweet top-end detail and the tone last 3-5x longer than ordinary strings

    Good cover. This is not as easy as it sounds. To the layman, it it pretty straight forward, and it is, except there are some clever nuances and ghost notes that need to be nailed to have that original feel. You seem to have nailed them all.

    Hi there, I wanted to thank you for the excellent work on your videos. I quit playing about 25 years ago because life got in the way and a host of other medical reasons. About 2 years ago I started playing again and your visual aids have been a huge help in reminding me of so many bass lines and some that I never played exactly right. Sorry for the long post, but you deserve a big thank you from this subscriber. THANK YOU!

    Full respect ✊ you play with such grace and ease , I’ve just bought a bass guitar so new to it all , I wish I could get my fingers to stretch with ease like yours mine are like ouch , decided the bass at age 48 never to old to rock lol bass players don’t get the credit they deserve , love all your videos thank you for such stunning playing it inspires us beginners, just managed to play smells like teen sprit by nirvana and only had my bass three weeks so I can’t be doing to bad , take care and once again thanks 😊

    Nice execution. What I like about this song is the movement. This and Pulling Mussels by Squeeze, are two of my favorite bass lines. On the flip side, I also love pulsing 8th notes and just keeping the pocket.

    The sound from your bass is so clear and powerful that I literally have to have my volume on extremely low as not to blow out my eardrums LOL. I love the sound so much :-). Parts of this tune remind me of the song “Go Your Own Way” by Fleewood Mack for some reason. My brother and I love to play that song on Guitar Hero, he plays the electric guitar part and I of course play the bass part :-D.
