my cat's vet recommended this band to me and he said "pay attention to the bass line", when I heard it I was like "but this is a machine/synth bass line... oh wait--what??"
Hello is amazing such a legend
La raffinatezza anni 80❤
Can't tell what's more impressive: the bass groove or the fact that he can sing while playing it
Yes
Exactly.
And he can chew gum at the same time :-) Still pretty darned amazing.
Skilled musicain. His brain and motor fuctions have been linked from years of playing.
And it helps that he's firking excellent...;-)
i would more impress if the trumpet player sings while he plays the trumpet. :),
Always loved this baseline.. still loving it in 2023 since '85
As a musician, to me is very very impressive to hear a band sounding like this live, and mostly after 30 years, wonderful musicians and incredible sound,
That's the result of living a clean life, their positive music has a lot to do with it...
I just commented on that. The sound is incredible!
Yes! I have never heard that live. In my 45 years not! ^^ Thats Awesome!
Exacto
I am pleased to read a real musician confirming the impression I have! I've never learnt to play and therefore am uncertain that my assessment is valid when I have the belief.
I've played bass for over 50 years, Mark is INCREDIBLE! Jaco Pastorius, Larry Graham, Paul McCartney, Stanley Clarke, Verdine White, (a few others LTD , Slave, Lakeside) Mark IS in that class. My GOODNESS he's phenomenal!!!!!!!!
And Marcus Miller.
Proper Music. Real Musicians
Mark is so on point with that bass, and singing and keeping time with the rest of the band. Pure talent.
Cannot believe he still sings like this. Man, you are a legend Mark.
Sounds exactly how he did in the 80s.....
🙌
He is just amazing, and still sooo hot !!!😂😂😂😂😂😂
Mark King is a machine on that bass, and vocals also. Amazing!
Thoes words as you put it is Spot On Mark King is a Machine with the Bass and should be number 1 in the Bass charts and he isn't and I think it's wrong. Mark is a regular Bass Player in the Princess Trust House Band and why is that? Because He's The Best The Worlds Best and lastly Mark should be United By Her Majesty' The Queen and become Sir Mark King that Man fully Deserves It.
Of course!
Yes. He is amazing
Like Phil on the drums😊😊
Impressive - not an easy song to reproduce live and they pulled it off.
Damn, I'm so happy to be a kid of the 80s!!!!
I’m 15, and I actually wish I was born in the late 60s lol
@@koenfje I definitely agree with you, but I would want to be born at the beginning of the 60's
Born in the 50's but you cant beat good music
At the time that I was a teenager of the 80s, I wished to be alive in the 60s minus Vietnam.
Me too brother.
My god, the bass playing on this is just sick. Top notch.
He is or was rated Top 5 at one time.
Mark King is Awesome on Bass Guitar. You should hear him play instrumental called Mr Pink WOW.
Level 42 right now is on level 100, these guys are amazing
Mark King, maestro. Always awe struck at his musical ability, playing the bass like an absolute boss and lead vocalist at the same time, now that's talent. Was playing level 42 in the car with the window down, stopped at traffic lights and the guy in the car next to me called out " absolute tune, more volume", so happily obliged.
Holy Shit these guys still have IT ! Great band and fantastic memories of the 80s !
Marc King is the best bass popplayer...nobody plays like that with his thumb amazing!
Check out Stanley Clark...They are both great bass players. Mark rips it like a funk master.
I love his pops, they're a work of art alone.
Les Claypool of Primus plays a more jazzy/metal style of bass.
True and fair go to the drummer to, that machine gun blast between the verse and the back to the chorus was awesome
1980-2022 when Level-42 reaches Level 42...such inspiring driving and never boring music over all these years with exceptional musicians .
I was 22 when they started...and I'm still addicted.
A 100% first class live performance.
Happy Birthday Mark you made great songs will be remembered during centuries
The Best to ever sing while playing complex bass lines.
Can't decide who's more impresive- Mark on bass & vocals, or Mike on keyboard & falsetto vocals. Altogether- fabulous band!
Great songs stay great. Love this arrangement. Performers still killing it after 30, now 44 years.
So......this guy plays the bass this way and also is the lead singer for Level 42??¡¡¡¡¡ just....WOW.....every day we can discover such great things in the music world
Thank you for being sooooooo good
Eles só melhoraram com o tempo.... Show incrivelmente magico!!!
What and learn kids , this is how it was done in the 80s . It was a total blast for music and fashion , I am defo going back again next time round !!
Probably one of the best bassists. Still powerful in 2019.
Listen Joe Dart of Vulfpeck...😉
@ , sorry man, but the Mark King's slap style of playing the bass guitar is unique 😎
@@Di-Revan Yeah!!!! dear Richie, agree with you ✌️🤘🤞🎸, Mark King is spectacular always!!!!.
I grew up my whole life thinking this bass part was sequenced, because surely no human can play this. Just wow.
Mark King is really special with a unique way of playing his bass guitar, but don't forget Phil Lynott, Victor Wooten, maybe Jacco Pastorius, all real good bass players with an unique talent.
I’ve seen Level 42 more times than I can remember. Best band during my lifetime.
Wonderful! Still with the same sound and voice. ❤❤❤
I absolutely love them, slap and pop that bass baby 🥰👍🏼👍🏼👍🏼
There are actually two persons inside Mark’s body; one sings, the other plays the bass
Very cool description!
And a Drummer :)
actually 3. another one is drum😂
That's called professionalism and can be reached by hard work, millnnial ! That generation actually does its job and doesn't pretend to. Back then we didn't get paid for selfies. Your generation is always so damn sure about everything and throws with criticism like confetti but doesn't know how to do its job!
@@TheNewsAnchorYouTrust eerrr, what?
Gosh, you must be fun to be with in parties.
Level 42 qué gran banda!! Mark King es un virtuoso del bajo que creó ese sonido característico de esta canción, y con un riqueza musical notable, un himno de los 80's. Recordando desde Perú 🇵🇪🇵🇪
Today I learned new definition of insane. To play those bass lines with machine like precision for so long... then singing on top of it with a melody that "seems to" stagger erratically over rhythm... what a tightly knit band... can't express my disbelief in words...
I don't think he is human.
Breathtaking! Saw them in the early 80s at the University of Saarbrücken, Germany. Sounded then like in this video. Top!
Crazy! These guys are still phenomenal! And Mark’s iconic slap bass rhythm is still the bomb! 👊😊🇨🇦
The 80's. The golden era. No social media. Just FANTASTIC music. Cheers
Not sure why I didn't get into this band in its day...a well oiled machine with PASSION
Powerful bassist! Singing while playing the base like that!?Insane!!😍
It was very enjoyable to see the appearance of Mar King with the Team
Only a drummer could play the bass as good as Mark King. He is something there special indeed.
Astonishing. Thank you Level 42. Love you guys.
One of my favourite groups from my youth the fantastic level 42 Mark King simply brilliant miss the 80 s so much
Mark King one of the best bass guitarist you'll ever see look at him go. in the day his fingers were insured for a cool million.
The band is tight - tight to (almost) perfection. Yet the drummer; a crazy drummer - genius he is. With Mark certainly. A band of the first class. Bravo!
Saw them live about 7 years ago in Bristol.
Took my disabled brother out of hospital after he had a stroke.
Absolutely amazing.
He died not long after.
This has got me crying my eyes out.
What a band.... Pure class
I'm sorry for your loss. May your brother rest in peace.
Sorry to hear that mate, but what a nice memory that you enjoyed the gig together
A beauty of the 80’s. Everybody runs to dance floor when this one comes. Iconic Bass playing as well.
The tempo here is faster than the studio recording, but not a single bass note was missed or out of time, and we still get solid vocals on top.
Mark King is not human. #AbsoluteLegend
One of the hardest bass-lines to play. The sheer endurance needed to keep that thump going for 5 minutes....
Level 42 opened for Steve Winwood in the US around 1987. What a class act! They dropped off the Winwood tour to play a sold-out show at Wembley. Good lads!
Bring Me a Lesson in Love
I'm not proud, I was wrong
And the truth is hard to take
I felt sure we had enough
But our love went overboard
Lifeboat lies lost at sea
I've been trying to reach your shore
Waves of doubt keep drowning me
All the dreams that we were building
We never fulfilled them
Could be better, should be better
For lessons in love
For restless eyes egos burn
And the mold is hard to break
Now we've waded in too deep
And love is overboard
Heavy hearts token words
All the hopes I ever had
Fade like footprints in the sand
All the homes that we were building
We never lived in
Could be better, should be better
Lessons in love
If we lose the time before us
The future will ignore us
We should use it, we could use it, yeah
Lessons in love
Lost without love
Lessons in love
When will you ever learn
Lessons in love
When there's nowhere left to turn
Lessons in love
Don't let your spirit burn
Lessons in love
I'll wait 'till you return
All the dreams that we were building
We never lived them
We could lose it, we should use it
(Lessons in love) lessons in love
All the homes that we were building
We never lived in
Could be better (could be better), should be better
Lessons in love
If we lose the time before us
The future will ignore us
We should use it, we could use it (good god)
Lessons in love

Fantastic. I was lucky to meet Mark King in the 80's. Awesome 👌
I am blown away at how good these guys are.
Yes!!!! They still sound incredible.
Absolutely Brilliant, Loved that from start to finish, can remember hearing that song on the works radio, while doing woodwork machining... back in 85 ish... :)
Spring of 87 I used to blast this entire album on my car stereo. Such a great album. God, how I loved that girl I was dating that year.
Hits me in the gut harder every decade after decade.
Awesome awesome brings back the best of my youth thanks LEVEL 42 greetings from the super ancient megalithic city of TIAHUANAKU BOLIVIA 🇧🇴. Thanks for posting.
Level 42 went to another level when they added drummer Pete Ray biggin. Great call Mark.
That Bass line is so infectious 😀👍
We all should learn, having a loving heart. Thank you, you are a teacher, hidden in this song, Holy Spirit teaches us, please. Amen. God bless us all.
Am reaching my 60's next year.. I heard their songs in my 20's plus n I still cherish their songs...god bless all of them👍
OMG! I feel so sorry for todays youth that doesn´t have real music!
Wenn I sad Mark, I make your music on and on. This groove makes me happy 😃 ! I’m alive ! Thx MY BASS BOY ! Love it ! SURE☝️ 😉😎The Band TOP too !
Was 25 when this was released in England, simply great song. Superb bass lines and execution.
I have been privileged to see them live SOMETHING ABOUT THEM live is very special
i love his accent in slapping those bass strings. very powerful in constant tempo. he is god of bass
Well, you’ve just seen and heard probably the greatest bass player of them all! Loved them since the eighties and still so. Amazing band!
Saw these guys in Birmingham 2 yrs ago... the drummer is unreal... the actual band musicianship is peerless.
I regret my lack of attention on Level 42 back in the 80s. What impressive musicianship.
Mark is a robot. Has to be. Dude is my favorite bass player ever. I never see him in best bass players on media. He freaking shreds it.
My favorit, unique....bass guitar is as as a leader...
Sin duda la mejor época, la mejor música...80s y 90s. Como amo está canción 🥰🍷
Fantastic live versión.
Powerful Bassist and clever singing
Master of bassguitar,... great voice...
yo the green lights on the bass fretboard, thats dope!
30 years have passed and that’s still a great song and a memorable hit⭐️ great job gentlemen!!🎵🎧
Saw them last night in Sheffield ! Omg they were amazing , what an amazing night ! ❤️❤️❤️❤️ only took 40 odd years : aw I’m still buzzing !
So bad ass, just as good as when they were young. I used to jam this on my Walkman with the orange headphone in 85
¡Noice!
Same as that fren. And, yes, noice
Wonderful talent.
The bass, the voice everything in Level 42 it's perfection!!! I love you !! ❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️
Great band one of my faves of all time and Mark king is the G.O.A.T bassist 👍👍👍hats off to you sir.
Awesome!!! Thanks for uploading this!!
I miss the way the world was back then.
Marks bassline riff in this the most memorable unforgettable one in the world for all time! ITS A BEAUTY and he plays it percussive with just his thumb!!!
No disputing Mr Kings talents but give the drummer some as well! That boy is in the pocket!!!!
Level 42,lesson in love. the Great bassist. greatest hits of all time. new wave never fade ❤🎉🎉
Wow! He still kind of sounds the same! I loved loved loved this group! I discovered them!😜 played them so much, most of my friends and family became fans!
Been a fan since day one
Eu curti muito essa banda nos anos 80; Mark King e Cia. show de bola!!!
What do you get when you take great lyrics, add awesome musicians, mix that up with amazing talent and a wicked groove? You get Level 42!
RIP Boon; thank you for years of phenomenal childhood music and memories.
R.I.P. Boon, a guitar, a man, a soul, a member or one of the best ever groups. Not against follwing members, but the original 4 were just amazingly complete.
Great !!!!.from France 🇨🇵
Si mal no recuerdo y la memoria no me falla, Mark toco junto a George Harrison y en el tributo a Freddie. Otro gran músico británico qué aun se mantiene y toca bien, una leyenda viviente de la música en general. Saludos cordiales desde Chile. 🤗🙋♂️🇨🇱
Mark King the most underrated bass player & singer of all time I think not just 80s, but what a fantastic time to be a teenager and to get too hear & watch these types of videos when MTV was heck a good!
The bass and everything else at the speed of light ... Masterpiece !!!
This song means so much, simply sublime!
What a voice. What a talent. Quelle performence. This is a real music.
Awesome this gives me goosebumps!
