The bass line during the chorus is my all time favorite. It's so simple yet driving and melodic. It exemplifies what role the bass should play in music IMO.
1000% agree... without this bass line, the song wouldn;t be the same (still one hell of a song though, but that bass....)... i wonder if it was mark who wanted a big fat bass line, or his engineer/producer...
That was one of the most competent bass lessons I've found on youtube. Your layout seemed optimal with the tab on the upper left, the utilization of dark clothing and background, and camera angle, made it super easy to follow. Thank you!
Since I play a few instruments, I tend to hear some over others in a song. Generally drums or synths/horn and bass..this song i can ONLY hear the bass its so driving! Love!
I really thank you again for your system which is with no doubt, the fastest to learn. I learnt today that the singer died this year so I could play it in few minutes.
During the 80's, we only had radio and black&white analog tv. Other kids in the neighborhood have nintendo and we don't. That's why i had the best opportunity for listening to music more than playing computer games. 80's and 90's were very memorable and this song really fits that nostalgia.
oh man, you did an exceptional job, outstanding, you brought tears to my eyes watching you handle that song with excellence. i have a bass but havent learned to play it. i always love the bass in songs and it was pure joy to see how an expert handles it. you blew me away.
Fantastic- probably in the top 3 New Wave Basslines!! The only thing I play different is I play more of the main riff on the A-string (8th fret A for the F)
When I click on "tabs here", I'm not seeing this great "Talk Talk" tune in the list. BTW, always loved this bass line, great choice! Always try to remember, no matter how difficult things seem to get in life, somehow, someway, things always seem to eventually work out. One day at a time:)
Was glad to see Talk Talk in Media Fire but for some reason it keeps asking if I want to sync it which I haven't done with any of the files and when I open it the audio just sounds like a CD skipping? None of the other files do that? Not sure why, I deleted the download file and redownloaded with no luck. No worries I'll try and figure it out. Hopefully I'll get it going, really wanted to learn this one this weekend:) Hope all is well:)
Anteayer empezaba yo aprender esta cancion de oido y hoy ...que sorpresa!...esta aqui! Muchas gracias por haberme evitado mucha faena, ha ha. El cover es magnifico, el de N.I.B. tambien. Saludos de Alemania.
Repeat one section (like the beginning stuff) over and over until you can do it without looking at the screen and the tabs. Then do that with the next section, then try it with those two together. Then learn the next section on its own, then try those 3 in a row without looking at the screen. Looking at the tabs is the crutch that stops it from being memorized in my case (I have to remind myself to not stare at them every single play-through because when I do I realize I can't remember that song the next day) I try to remember the pattern or shape on the fretboard that moves around to different starting points.
Yes, that's right, this is exactly how I do it. Section by section and not focusing too much on the tab. Just your brain and visual memory to get the pattern on the bass. Also, do not go too fast or you'll get lost. On the contrary go too slow until you get into it with no hesitation and when you do it, do not go too fast or you'll kill the beat etc :)
Have you ever done a cover of Roundabout? Haven't been able to find it if you have. Amazing work as always, I play along for at least 30 mins a day before working on my stuff. much love to the personal stuff, were here for you CS. ♡
Brilliant!! What kind of bass you’re playing? It sounds like a fretless bass but it isn’t. Do you have any advice on the soundsettings? I love this cover👍
Amazing as always, you've really inspired and helped me learn bass. 👍 Any chance you can do: Hermod's Ride To Hel - Lokes Treachery Part 1 by Amon Amarth?
The 80's are famous for bringing up the best bass lines of all time. Good job Bro.! 👍 BTW this legendary bass line was totally messed up in gwen stefani's cover version of this song. 🤮
Great fuckin job bro!.... and a great bassline.......love this band! I'm wondering....did he use a fretless in the original? What's your thoughts? Cheers, Kev
Really smooth CoverSolutions; thanks for doing this. Will you ever get time to do a bass cover of Level 42's "Children Say" & "Good Man In A Storm" or Leon Wilkeson's bass on Lynyrd Skynyrd's remake of "Blue Yodel No. 1"?

I always love how in this song the bassline has it's whole own life.
It does indeed, its wonderful how it rocks back & forth then hits the Low note and goes back to the back N forth. So satisfying !
Definitely one of the best of the 80’s
its lead bass and its wonderful.
The bass line during the chorus is my all time favorite. It's so simple yet driving and melodic. It exemplifies what role the bass should play in music IMO.
I was surprised to see basically an Am pentatonic scale, it's incredible how much impact it had
I don't think it's that simple!
It's those couple of extra notes that keep the line moving so melodically. Beautiful playing.
Such a great bass line. One of my favourites for sure.
Definitely not simple but definitely incredible!!!
I'm a total newbie on the bass. If there's a bass line I've always wanted to learn...this is it!
It's 2 years ago, so did you learn to play it 😊
@@susanndiaye2180 Not yet no 😬😅
Come on! It’s not that hard 😂 keep working bro!
@@PM-fs2eg Did you give up playing the bass or are you still playing 🤷♀️ 😊
What about now
RIP Mark Hollis may your band and this sick 80's bassline last forever
The bass line of this song is like the heart: remove it and the song dies.
CaptainAmerica so true 🔥👌
Why should we listen to you, You're not even the real Captain America.
RIP Mark Hollis 👏👏👏
This must be one of the best bass lines ever. Good job mate.
totally agree
Amen
The whole It's My Life album has bass lines to die for!
1000% agree... without this bass line, the song wouldn;t be the same (still one hell of a song though, but that bass....)... i wonder if it was mark who wanted a big fat bass line, or his engineer/producer...
One of my favourite basslines of the 80s.. great
This bass line gives me GOOOSEBUMPS!!!
One of the all-time great bass lines in music. Very well done sir, thank you!
I'm glad I'm not the only one who thinks so 🎉
One of the best bass driven songs of the 80s
That was one of the most competent bass lessons I've found on youtube. Your layout seemed optimal with the tab on the upper left, the utilization of dark clothing and background, and camera angle, made it super easy to follow. Thank you!
I'll toss in praise for the pre-chorus, one of the best in pop music.
Since I play a few instruments, I tend to hear some over others in a song. Generally drums or synths/horn and bass..this song i can ONLY hear the bass its so driving! Love!
This is such a good bass line - absolute classic
Three distinct bass riffs in this song and all are great!! Nice job!! 💯
That`s one of the awesomest bass lines in synth pop history, great video, muchas gracias!
Great job.
One of the very greatest songs ever!!
The baseline is transcendent
Such a Fun wonderful sound ! The Bass leads this song.
Best bass line out of the 80's, monster job covering it bro.....SO TASTY
One of my favourite basslines and songs - thanks!
I really thank you again for your system which is with no doubt, the fastest to learn.

always loved no doubt's cover and that is where I noticed the bass. Their bassist is actually really good
One of my favourite bass covers :D I like it to hear this instead of the original song, I love the pre-Chorus bass line
Where were you . 40 years ago, when I needed you? Nicely done, thank you.
Many people think that No Doubt's version is the original song but they're wrong, this is the original from the 80's, No Doubt's version is a cover.
Outstanding.
Best bass line known to man and you nailed it
Great bass line and great transcription. A real treat to play !
This is my favorite version of one of my favorite songs. Boost that bass!
Well, done, Love. I truly appreciate your efforts to have great video sound, viable image of both hands and scrolling tabs.
HELL YEAH! LOVE THIS BASSLINE!
Amazing to see, amazing to hear, the heart and soul carried by the bass in this song captured to the detail. Thanks!
one of my favorite channels. Keep up the amazing work and choice bass lines!
Fantastic- probably in the top 3 New Wave Basslines!! The only thing I play different is I play more of the main riff on the A-string (8th fret A for the F)

You have such great song selections, love your channel! Even when it's not really my type of music, it's always songs with great bass lines. Thanks!
La cancion con el bajo más lindo que existe la escucharía siempre algun día me compraré mi bajo para sacarla
I had the verse and I had the chorus nailed, but not the bridge. This helped me get there. Thanks mate 👍
I don't know why I enjoy that bass line so much... but thanks for the tabs!
Brilliant cover to a brilliant so g. Well done!!
THIS blokes awesome everytime it picks up the BASS
AKA Famous Fooker!
Always sounded like Roxy Music. Epic.
Oh man, I was just going to suggest this one, was trying to learn it by ear this morning. Thank you!!!
Incredible, I just knew that I was gonna find this song on this channel. Bruh you got everything
Anteayer empezaba yo aprender esta cancion de oido y hoy ...que sorpresa!...esta aqui! Muchas gracias por haberme
evitado mucha faena, ha ha. El cover es magnifico, el de N.I.B. tambien. Saludos de Alemania.

Very smooth, great playing on a great song on a gorgeous bass 👍

Fantastic! Thank you sooo much! Incredible song, one of the best bass lines ever, really nice job, great video!
l love Paul Webb
I love you're Guitar playlist, I hope to keep giving you support 👍🏻
Absolutely apex groove here, thanks for playing this.
Another great baseline without the track would be nothing. We played.
Great Job sir! I was just looking for the original and came across yours! Many success!
siempre que busco un temaso para sacar con el bajo lo haces vos, sos un genio!!
Hats off to you man. Idk if this is how he originally plays it but there are easier ways. Hahah
Thanks for this one! I like to learn the bass driven songs.
Increíble. Bien tocado sin ningún error. Este tema siempre me gustó justamente por el bajo. Increíble que a 44 extraterrestres no les guste jaja
Top class base line nice 👍
how do you remember all the notes to play? i still cant remember them
Try to memorize small sections , one at a time .
Repeat one section (like the beginning stuff) over and over until you can do it without looking at the screen and the tabs. Then do that with the next section, then try it with those two together. Then learn the next section on its own, then try those 3 in a row without looking at the screen.
Looking at the tabs is the crutch that stops it from being memorized in my case (I have to remind myself to not stare at them every single play-through because when I do I realize I can't remember that song the next day) I try to remember the pattern or shape on the fretboard that moves around to different starting points.

Also, do not go too fast or you'll get lost. On the contrary go too slow until you get into it with no hesitation and when you do it, do not go too fast or you'll kill the beat etc :)
I find that my brain continues to work on songs after I've gone to sleep for the night.
practice. take it step by step and then put it together until you can do it with looking at the tab/notes
cool, I wish I had the coordination to play a stringed instrument.
Absolutely amazing, great job!
It was played on a fretless bass, wow!! ✌️☺️
Have you ever done a cover of Roundabout? Haven't been able to find it if you have. Amazing work as always, I play along for at least 30 mins a day before working on my stuff. much love to the personal stuff, were here for you CS. ♡
não me canso de ver..de ouvir..very good..match ..match
Lovely job.
de nuevo un material de primera. gracias colega!
No doubt did the cover
So clean
Nice cool Base Guitar you've got the touch you've got the power
Brilliant!! What kind of bass you’re playing?
It sounds like a fretless bass but it isn’t. Do you have any advice on the soundsettings? I love this cover👍
perfect,,obrigado brazil..very good
Amazing as always, you've really inspired and helped me learn bass. 👍
Any chance you can do:
Hermod's Ride To Hel - Lokes Treachery Part 1 by Amon Amarth?
The 80's are famous for bringing up the best bass lines of all time.
Good job Bro.! 👍
BTW this legendary bass line was totally messed up in gwen stefani's cover version of this song. 🤮
super job, mate. many thanks.
Essa linha de baixo é uma delícia!
Great Videos what brand and style of bass are you playing. Thanks for the tutorials?
Sean
really well done!
Paul Webb would usually play fretless bass and this record was no exception, but even on fretted it works.
Is this a difficult baseline? It's great!
Nit a beginner bass line, tricky timing, will take practice.
Thank you, helped me a lot!
This bass line can easily be reversed and become a melody itself.
You are the best. Thanks!
Awesome thank you
Ok, Iv'e heard lots of lots of covers on youtube. Your bass sounds AMAZING! Exactly the sound I like. What bass is it?
Took me a long time but I finally got it! Not easy xD but rewarding!
Great fuckin job bro!.... and a great bassline.......love this band!
I'm wondering....did he use a fretless in the original? What's your thoughts?
Cheers,
Kev
I think he did, specially when some vibrato is applied, it sounds very fretlessy
CoverSolutions Paul Webb used a fretless Kramer bass on the original recording.
Thanks for the feedback!
❤️❤️❤️ Excelente ❤️❤️❤️
Excelente Play
Excelente Tab
Necesito un bajo jajajajajaja
Amazing job 👏
Amazing. Can you play Metallica-battery ?
Rx Bandits- Will you be tomorrow. Please please please!! Un saludos desde Chile. Excelente tu trabajo.
Gab Bass es chileno el compadre 😂
Noo!!! Jajajajaja no tenía idea, ojalá se raje con el tema entonces.
I'd love to see you do Heaven and Hell by Black Sabbath, R.I.P. Ronnie James Dio.
Hero
Really smooth CoverSolutions; thanks for doing this.
Will you ever get time to do a bass cover of Level 42's "Children Say" & "Good Man In A Storm" or Leon Wilkeson's bass on Lynyrd Skynyrd's remake of "Blue Yodel No. 1"?
Espectacular.
