Really excited about the series! Thanks for considering our suggestions 😃
This is very well explained and broken down. Love that you give us the music and tabs too. And FYI - Guy himself breaks this line down on his lockdown licks series. As charming as he is AND the guy who made the bass line, you're a better teacher.
Thanks so much. Wizards such as Guy often just do amazing things without necessarily knowing exactly why what they did is amazing!
Looking forward to this series!
Awesome little breakdown! As far as other songs it would be nice to see you break down I’d love to see you tackle some Steely Dan. The early tracks where Walter Becker was playing would be super cool as would the later Chuck Rainier stuff
Good idea. 👍
I was watching Guy Pratt playing with Dave Gilmore live in Gdańsk what a phenomenal Bassist, what a magical gig that was 🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥👌🏽
Love that show.
I like to roll-a-ganja and bass out to your channel. Great selection!
👊
Thxs for a great song layout. Can't find many instances where a song is explained in a simple yet detailed way, especially including the song structure which helps to "understand" the song and how to work within it. Look fwd to more videos like this.
This song’s everywhere at the minute, so I’m not surprised you’ve done a video about this bass line!! 😅👍
Guy Pratt is a beast! And seems like a really really great dude! And funny! He is one of my biggest influences on the bassguitar and I’d love to see more breakdowns on his work. Thanks for this! And remember, always upvote Guy Pratt!
Yeah, he's brilliant!
Love your work Dan. A breakdown of Free's Mr Big would be awesome. Respect.
Paul McCartney's bass on George's "Something" I think would be a great analysis.
Dan, superb video! Looking forward to others like this. 👍🏽
Thanks for the breakdown and theories behind this cool bass rift ! Its always a pleasure to interact with your videos .
Thanks for watching, Roger. 🙏
Very good breakdown video!!
Thank you!!! This was super informative I like this series a lot
Thanks, Lena!
This is dope cuz honestly it sounds sweeter slow I love it
Cool song, thanks for sharing Dan
Having returned to the Bass and playing after a long long injury forced break you are delivering absolute quality material here which is unlocking loads and loads of past gaps in my music knowledge and theory. I have enrolled in one of your online courses and and i cant wait to get stuck into the material and its learning. Ta very much.
Thanks very much! I hope you enjoy the course.
Awesome
I really love the way you break it and explain. I think I've watched about 2 of your vids and think I've already improved!
That’s great! Imagine what’ll happen after the next 8…
This is a great lesson!
Thank you!
Thanks for asking Dan! Variety of styles and difficulty levels to my suggestions below. Some more famous than others but each of them pretty musically interesting imo. Also trying to suggest basslines that either don’t have any or don’t have great tutorials on UA-cam, or that may have tutorials but no analysis of the theory/construction of the line.
Squarepusher - Come On My Selector
Isley Brothers - Between the Sheets
Sade - No Ordinary Love
Police - Spirits in the Material World
Fiona Apple - Fast as You Can
Squarepusher - Squarepusher Theme
Death Cab for Cutie - For What Reason
Death Cab for Cutie - Scientist Studies
Talking Heads - Warning Sign
Serge Gainsbourg - Melody
Hall & Oates - Sara Smile
Wow, great list! 🙏👍
Great video. A breakdown of chivalry is not dead of hiatus kaiyote would be super amazing
Hi Dan thanks for everything you do. Some songs, different styles, that I think the bass line sounds good on which I haven’t seen breakdowns on:
Pasadenas - Tribute (Right On)
The Beat - Save It For Later
The Psychedelic Furs - Pretty in Pink
New Order - Regret
Funkadelic - One Nation Under A Groove
Great list - thanks!
Love your videos an I am looking forward to this series. I would like to see a Video for this songs:
The Darkness-I believe in a thing called love
UB40-kingston town
Mr. Big-to be with you
Clouseau-close encounters
❤
Future song suggestions: Pretty much anything by Khruangbin or Tame Impala, especially “the less i know the better” by the latter. Also “scratchcard lanyard” by Dry Cleaning, or for funk, “free” by Sault
Could you make an analisis video of Pedro Aznar? He is an amazing Argentinian fretless bassist. I personally think that basslines as "mientes" or solos as "eiti leda" would be great choices to pick for a video.
I’ll have a listen.
Thanks for such a great content, Dan!
I couldn’t find the backing track for this tune…
I suggest any tune from Stevie Wonder on a future lesson of this series…
There’s a bassless version of the original song here on YT. Been practicing to that
Cool! Yeah I forgot to add it but it’s up now…
Hi Dan. Can I suggest, Lauren by Men I trust
👍
Fantastic!
Appreciate that it might not be something you’d usually listen to but I’d love to see a breakdown of ‘Dance’ from the Persona 4 Dancing All Night video game.
I’ll check it out…
May I suggest "Groove is in the Heart" by Dee Lite. ... Great lesson Dan. Thank you.
Here you go! ua-cam.com/video/0e_znZdmJj8/v-deo.html
Thank you Dan!
Hello Sir! I have been binge watching your lessons for the last couple of weeks as they are extremely helpful. Very good teacher you are 😊! I was wondering if there was a way to actually download the backing track? Or can i only listen to it on your page? I just want to send it to garage band so i can loop it for example… Thanx!
Thank you! Yes. In most browsers, there are three dots to the right of the audio bar and that’s how you download it (after clicking there).
If you can’t, email me (dan@onlinebasscourses.com) and I’ll send it to you.
Thank you! The only three dots i see near the backing track are for the speed of playback… it’s ok i know a way to do it, it just takes a lot longer 🤣
@@m-cparadis Weird! What browser are you using? Do email me if it's easier.
I am using Safari on an ipad… like i said i do have a workaround (cheating youtube restrictions 😂) i’m guessing nobody else has that issue so i’m probably missing something very simple…
@@m-cparadis some people do on other browsers but, yes, I don't think you can download it on an iPad.
Great breakdown! I love to analyze music like this. I have a question for you; I grew up listening to alternative rock in the 90s so I was never really exposed to funk. Mostly I just experience it playing modern pop music, and of course from Flea. But I was going to ask if you could recommend some funk that heavily utilized the octaves. Thanks so much!
It’s also very funny that you picked this song Dan. I am currently learning another Guy Pratt hit, Madonna’s like a Prayer. That bass line with the octaver is just amazing. I’ve seen it played several ways and would love to see you play it! 😊
I think I did it in one video! You should check out Guy's own UA-cam channel where he plays it himself.
I wrote a book and a course on funk and this is the playlist from it. You'll hear loads of amazing bass playing there! open.spotify.com/playlist/11GU3eDHwUUC8ZxQ4Hvm6R?si=7bc79c225e704f20
Hey thanks so much for the info! That’s funny that I UA-camd it and neither Guy’s or your version of Like a Prayer came up 🤣🤣 Like life, UA-cam is a mystery.
@@blousug Mine was within a random video I think! ua-cam.com/video/yluPCLc1ltg/v-deo.html
Can you look into some Men I trust songs?
You might want to check out the lesson coming later today!

I am really enjoying this series because you're choosing some incredible songs that have fantastic bass lines!!! Thank you SO MUCH for the breakdown of the bass line for "Men I Trust"! I wasn't familiar with that tune at all and it is a serious challenge to play it correctly. It's one of the most melodic bass lines I've ever heard especially in a pop song1! I'm really enjoying learning these songs because I'm forced to practice and work on my craft!!! I'm going to watch Guy Pratt's breakdown video! Here are a couple of bass lines I would enjoy you breaking down:
Don't Wait Another Night by Change ua-cam.com/video/4FpV5PykvNs/v-deo.html
This Place Hotel by The Jacksons ua-cam.com/video/Zg5AIaduI1E/v-deo.html
I’ll check them out! Thanks!
