Popular bass lines to get you motivated.

Many people argue what the most famous bass line of all time is.

The answer quite simple is that there isn’t one. There are many that make “top ten bass line” blogs or charts, but ultimately the choice is yours.

One bass line many people agree on is by Queen - “another one bites the dust”. You’ll seldom meet anybody that hasn’t heard of the song. You’re even less likely to come across that doesn’t know the bass line. The brilliance of this bass line is it’s simplicity yet its catchiness.

A faster yet just as catchy Queen bass line is that of “under pressure” ft David Bowie.

If you need it for motivation or just to get the party started, another one bites the dust is a good song to chose from.

If you’re looking for something a little less rock and roll, Ben E King is another classic with another simple bass line yet really catchy. You’re bound to know what song it is, but just in case you don’t it’s “stand by me”. Ben E King is a timeless classic that has been brought forward to all generations.

If you’re looking for something a little more modern, and a little more complex, try exploring the Red Hot Chilli Peppers “give it away now” bass line.   

If you’re an experienced bass player and you already know these tabs yet want to take yourself that extra mile and push your talents, there’s only one bass line for you. “Hysteria” by Muse.

Of course this music may not be to everyone’s taste, but they are indeed timeless classics in the world of bass.
