Mind blowing stuff. Never knew there was that much going on. I think the song is so perfectly structured that Rutger could really stretch out and still serve the song. But the playing contains 100 times as many quirks as Bill Wyman on MIss You or Emotional Rescue (I know - Ron Wood wrote the bass part). Great job!
It used to be a guilty pleasure, but I'm done with that now...ABBA is great in any time Hey Troy - nice one to add to the collection! Thanks for all you do!
A lesson I learned from Mo Foster, famous English bassist who worked on Frida's album, was that if the drums do a simple beat, the bass will have room to fill. And vice versa, where the bass plays straight so the drums can add character. This appears to be the former, and it's quite a nice understanding of things. Well done covering this song, and showing the complexity of the bass lines.
I need to point out Frida Lyngstrad going public on Norwegian media and advocating for children from the Nazi "Lebensborn" program in Norway was pretty awesome. Her grandmother hid her past and could have said nothing. Instead, she opened up about her past and advocated for kids in Norway who suffered abuse she escaped.
It's funny that I've listened to so many pop songs over time not really grasping the complexities of the bass lines. Now I do listen and it appears to be a thing of the past.
I've actually been listening to some ABBA recently including the Arrival album in full.... This is one of my favourite ABBA songs, but I also realy like 'When I kissed the teacher" from the same album I didn't know how busy the bass line was in this track though... Rutger is a very underrated bass player indeed and you did a great job as usual - I'll have a listen to the live version Edited to add - yes the live version is a bit slower and also shorter than the studio version, but still worth a listen!
Cool. I should dig a bit deeper into their catalog. Yeah, it's one of the most random bass-lines that I've covered by them. "Dancing Queen" is a close second. Thanks for watching and taking the time to comment. Take care!
Thank you very very much for all of your content. 🍀 I've startet learning Bass in 2012🤓 And the reason for that was your work here, more precisely your Cover of the lonesome loser🤘🏻 All i can say is thank you for that🤗😎🍀
I thank you for watching and taking the time to comment. I'm very flattered to hear that I had something to do with you taking up the bass. I truly hope that you derive as much satisfaction from playing as I have/do. Thanks and take care!
I’m glad you liked it and I hope it was helpful. I always say, if I was learning the song for myself to play live, I would just pick my favorite parts (the ones that I thought sounded best and the ones I was most comfortable playing) and repeat them throughout the song. But, if you really want to try and get inside this guy‘s head, it would serve you well to learn all the variations. Thanks so much and take care.
Great work as usual! I saw an ABBA tribute band recently, and was inspired to learn Waterloo. First time I’ve ever played in drop D, fun to learn and a really enjoyable song to play. There are some great lines in those ABBA songs.
Amazing as always! Love it when you cover ABBA. I've grown to love them so much, has quickly become a huge favorite of mine and the fact you can replicate those bass lines flawlessly is so impressive to me. They're so melodic and rhythmic. Also saw you mentioned The Concert a Tribute to ABBA band. I'd highly recommend them! I saw them earlier in the year and it was incredible. The girls sound incredible, the backing band is fantastic. They're so great, and yeah they have Mike Watson on bass. I was watching him a lot and it was cool seeing him in action.
Thank you very much. I love them as well. My house-cleaning playlist is full of them. After reading your comment I immediately bought my tickets. We've had a few ABBA tributes come through here and I've researched them, but some relied heavily on backing tracks and some of the promo clips were really old. I didn't want to make the wrong choice. Thanks for pushing me in the right direction.
@@TJH3113oh nice! Hope you enjoy them. They dont have backing tracks, they have the two main girls, some back up vocalists who do extra harmonies, the two males one who does keys the other some guitar, then a backup band who does a variety of stuff from more guitar to horns ect. They're a great time, hoping to go see them again soon!
Great song. I saw the Abba "avatar show" (like holograms) in London earlier this year. It was amazing, they are so lifelike and so realistic! Highly recommend anyone who can to go see it, even if you aren't a big Abba fan. The technology is amazing.
Love your channel. Always puts me in a good mood and love discovering and listening to known and not known songs (just watched your Tubes - Theme park cover for example). Hope you’re having a great weekend my friend.
@@stvnlake I play by ear and memory. It’s how I learned to play and the only way I know. If I really get stuck on something I’ll look for an isolated track or other covers. I’ve only sought out tabs two or three times and was shocked at how inaccurate they were.
@@TJH3113 cool, I am just amazed when folks can do that.. I can’t always tell which notes are being played in a complicated song like Rush’s Freewill or Cinderella Man, like in the background of the solo on that song. I mean I learned guitar and bass by ear but haven’t put in the hours to be that good hearing a chord on guitar and playing a bass note to support it without following the guitar. Any tips for learning notes and tunings when playing bass along with a guitar? I mean could ask the guitarist what chord or key I guess. Does that make sense? My style is more like Cliff Williams of ACDC or Ian Hill.
Thanks Troy. One of my favourite basslines of all time - and an absolute pig to play - well above my pay grade, so really well done. I've never suggested anything, but you might consider Joe Long's bassline from The Night (as opposed to December 63). One of those ones that starts simple and then gets a bit tricky.
Great to see you playing again man! ABBA bass lines are amazing as there is hardly any, if any, American influence. It’s all far more orchestral. As much as I love American music, it’s always interesting listening to European music for that reason. Catch you later mate.
OMG, what a beautiful bass !!! After all this time, YOU are the one guy I turn to to learn the CORRECT bass lines. I really love the heart and soul that you put into your playing... Well done, TJ
That randomness may have been hard to cover (you did it brilliantly), but is one of the elements that make Rutger’s basslines so fun to listen to! Fabbalous!
Man, I simply love your covers and the commentary on them. I'll be joining a band that plays a lot of Abba songs and you have no idea how helpful your videos are to me. Offtopic: since I see you really like fancy basses with plenty of bells and whisles, did you have a chance to try out the Marcus Miller Sire M7? It has 2 split coil pickups that can work in single coil, parallel humbucker and serial humbucker + an active eq with a passive switch. You can get so many different sounds out of it it's crazy. Keep up the good work!
Thanks so much. ABBA has become one of my favorite bands to cover. The bass-lines are great and the songs just never get boring to me, no matter how many times I play them. I have never seen or played a Marcus Miller bass, but I've heard nothing but good things about them, so I don't think you could go wrong with any model you choose. My personal preference in an instrument is not versatility. I just like a bass that has a great "voice" and does one thing really well. I don't really care for lots of options, switches, and knobs. Thanks and take care!
Somehow the bassline feels natural in the song, even though it appears really strange when hearing it this distinctly. Why is that? I would never think of playing it that way
brilliant... who would have thought, surprisingly awesome bassline. Haven't made time for a while to play bass, but if I see you play an abba song, I _have_ to watch it. So inspiring, thank you
Wow, well played, I really liked this, thank you for making and sharing the video + your thoughts/analysis. Nothing wrong with the sound of the new bass!
@@TJH3113I've been well Troy! I have taken a short break from music to concentrate on caring for my mother. She's better now so wading back into the fray! 🤘🏻
Awesome, Troy! It’s been years since I’ve heard this song and it was a treat to see & hear your cover. 🎸🔥 P.S. Thanks for mentioning pitch on Apple Music. 😮
@@TJH3113 Today I gave a listen to "Head First" (The Babys Anthology record) on YT and Apple Music. Apple Music sounds just barely sharp in comparison to YT and against a freshly tuned bass while sampling root notes across octaves.
I personally would would prefer the 35P4 version where the D&G magnet poles are stacked above the E&A. This orientation helps the D&G output to be some what more in balance with the output of the E&A strings. I never understood why Leo Fender placed the D&G under the E&A. That configuration is just too lopsided. Stuart Spector did it the right way.
That's what I had in this bass before changing it out. I had the soap bars put in so it would be super flexible. Just take one p/u out and plug the other one it. Like I said, it was originally a reverse-p/j. Now it's a J. But I have another 35PA, so I'd like to try out a double-P at some point, just to see how it sounds. I totally agree with the benefits of the reverse-p that you mentioned. I wonder who the first to do that was... I'm not sure it was Spector.
I love ABBA but I would have to pass on this one. I look for a pattern in a bass line, the turn around etc... This is not beyond my skill level but rather beyond my attention level. Thanks for taking the time to share this with us Troy. I always enjoy your videos and always watch them in their entirety. On a side not What about an Eddie mask (Iron Maiden) or Vic mask (Megadeth).
That's exactly why I resisted learning it, but once I started it I had to see it through. About the masks - I guess I'm not a big enough fan of either band to want a mask of their mascots.
I tried my best, but there are a few things that may just me my interpretation. Thanks. With regard to my tone, I've never tried to emulate the sound of the bass on the songs I'm covering. It's just not my thing at all. Sometimes I get lucky and find myself in the neighborhood, but that doesn't happen very ofter.
The brilliance of the late Rutger Gunnarsson.
Truth.
Rutger’s feel and timing….genius.
It is.
Thanks Troy! Love ABBA, love Rutger Gunnarsson!
My pleasure! Thanks for watching and taking the time to comment.

Prolly my fave Abba tune.
Didn't expect such a busy bass line.
I'm weak for cheesy 70 love tunes....nostalgia and all that.
Killed it Troy. ✌️
Awesome, I'm glad you liked it!
Thanks!
Holding down the bass duties for ABBA would have been a dream gig. This brings to light just how creative Rutger was. Happy Friday Troy!
I imagine it would be... once you learned all the parts. As good as Rutger was, it's surprising how similar some of Mike Watson's lines were to his.
Every time I hear this song, I get emotional. Brilliant take. Thanks.
ABBA can do that to you. Thanks, I'm glad you liked it.
Brilliant! One of my all favourite songs and IMHO, ABBA's finest.
Thanks!
Another beautiful ABBA song. I think they are the best group out! Thanks for playing them so much! Love Marvine
I love them too! Thanks Marvine... take care!!!
Great song and playing. You can't go wrong with any ABBA song. Brilliant bass line.
Thank you.
How did he come up with his bass lines? Just insane!!! Killer cover! Thanks Troy!
I have no idea! Thank you!
It used to be a guilty pleasure, but I'm done with that now...ABBA is great in any time
Hey Troy - nice one to add to the collection! Thanks for all you do!
I'm with you!

Sounds like one of those simple things that everyone should know, but not many do.

From me.
I'll try.
@@TJH3113 You have (at least!) two new, young & enthusiastic Scottish fans on your books.
Brilliant playing 🎸👍🏻🏴
What an amazing bass line. I'm not that familiar with ABBA songs. Beautiful playing Troy. Thanks for sharing with us.
It's a strange one! Thank you, Constantine.
It's funny that I've listened to so many pop songs over time not really grasping the complexities of the bass lines. Now I do listen and it appears to be a thing of the past.

Thank you. Me neither.
sound amazing ,no excuse i need to know that one ,great .superb play

That may have been murder to learn, but let me tell you, Troy, you killed it! Great work as always!

A very loose jam.

Everything it easy, except for what's not.
