Seeing their 80s live vids they were actually a super tight live band as well. Kinda wish I had some brain cells as a teenage metalhead back in the day. I’d have been a long haired kid front row with a Metallica tour shirt rocking one of their shows!🤘🏻
I watched this years ago, I cannot believe I didn't leave a comment, Fabulous work, Taylor is one of my all time favourites and how he wrote that bass line is beyond me, as a drummer I know the importance of bass to the backbone of a song and with this rendition I can see the backbone is in good hands, excellent, If you want to do a new video of it I am sure it will be well received. love it, Thank you
One of my all time favorite songs, mainly because of the bass. You did a fantastic job covering the song. You could see that you were having fun playing the song, the confidence you showed, you know you're a great bass player, totally nailed this song. Amazing job, thanks for sharing.
Kudos. You're one of three people that I've seen get both sets of ghost notes that John does in several sections of the verse, as well as the chorus. Very smooth on the bridge as well. I've been experimenting with sliding up to the C in the bottom string (E) to get the thicker tone but I'm not sure I like the transition. Excellent cover.
The most optimistic song and music video of the 80s with a great bass line. Watching the video always put me in a good mood. Great job on the bass line!
As much as I love this song and your bass playing...I find myself coming back to watch this video just to see you smile to yourself when the first chorus kicks in :) Keep on groovin'!
I just heard this song on the radio (the 12" remix) and thought, damn, that is the best bass part I ever heard. It's awesome to watch how you play it here. Wish I could start a band with you on bass!
Fantastic!! And supposedly on of the most difficult bass lines of any pop song, so even more impressive!! well done, you have a a full 'Durannie's' seal of approval :-)
WOW! I am AMAZED at you natural talent! I wish I could play as well as you! I consider this song AND the Eric Clapton "AFTER MIDNIGHT" as the BASS STANDARDS by which we will all be judged. You have nailed it! DO NOT let any trolls run you down!!!! YOU ARE AWESOME!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Don't normally look at this sort of thing but have to say was pleasantly happy once I did. Good dedication and skill to know the whole composition on this and any other track you play! Plus, you do look Most appealing too !!!
You MUST have several wanna be musician guys either jealous or begging at your disposal...... Magnificent musician....Keep it up BEAUTIFUL!! I'll follow
Nice job! This is one of my favorite bass lines! You killed it! I also agree, this bass line requires you to move about a bit when playing, its so good you cant sit still and play haha.
I'm another DD fan since '84 and I've got to say, its great to see someone young like yourself learning one of the classics! I can play this one on guitar and thank God it's a lot easier than the bass part :) How about giving Shadows on Your Side a shot?
Absolutely perfect job. Thank you for the lesson !!! I thought I was playing it right. Hahaha. Well done. Bass is so underrated (by people who are not musicians... Usually. We (all of us here) we all get it. Lol) and Duran Duran especially had some very cool bass going on all the time. Subscribing. I gotta see more. Very nice job.
How can people NOT like Duran Duran. They wrote some seriously complex and clever music.

Bravissima. Controllo delle ghost notes totale. Brava!!!
love this love the fact you put something of your personality into the performance
Good transitions. Perfect ghost tones. Fantastic.

Brilliant playing. I've been a professional for over 35 years as a bass player. I love anybody who can play that part the right way.

Precisely! The ghost notes drive this groove.

Brilliant playing. Perfect all the way through. I'm green with envy.
one of all my all time favorite songs and one of the hardest base lines ever... well done
I've been trying like hell to learn this song..your fingers move so gracefully
One of my fav bassline... Great playing ! You got the groove !
awesome John Taylor would be proud. Rock On!!!!!!!
Una linea di basso molto impegnativa. Complimenti, davvero.
A volte tiri indietro però il groove è generalmente buono e anche il suono di basso. Lavora di più sul metronomo. Bravissima! :)
Brilliantly played and you looked as though you really enjoyed it!
Excellent timing! Well played!
That was really well played. Your right has moves so smoothly. Thanks for sharing. You just earned a new subscriber. Cheers

Fantastic!! And supposedly on of the most difficult bass lines of any pop song, so even more impressive!! well done, you have a a full 'Durannie's' seal of approval :-)

DURAN DURAN forever
Really excellent. Duran Duran typically had such amazing bass lines-rather intimidating too. Great job!
Wow. You are a fantastic player. More Duran bass covers please. You made Rio look easy, and Rio isn't easy on the bass
You MUST have several wanna be musician guys either jealous or begging at your disposal......
Magnificent musician....Keep it up BEAUTIFUL!! I'll follow
Uno dei growe più belli degli indimenticabili anni 80 ... Poi brava ... 😜

Nice job! This is one of my favorite bass lines! You killed it! I also agree, this bass line requires you to move about a bit when playing, its so good you cant sit still and play haha.
Inside a great song we can always find a super bass line , well played !
I always liked the sound of the Fender Jazz Bass. You did a nice job on it.
she looks like Gia Jordan. Great bass playing. She nailed Johns licks no doubt about it. Awesome.
I'm another DD fan since '84 and I've got to say, its great to see someone young like yourself learning one of the classics! I can play this one on guitar and thank God it's a lot easier than the bass part :) How about giving Shadows on Your Side a shot?
