Favourite songs where the bass line is the hook!

[Al Krow]

Gotta be one of the more iconic bass lines! (Apologies to @itu who I've just seen already gave this a mention!) But definitely a fun one to play and these guys do a decent cover.

And I know it's way too soon to be thinking about Xmas! But if you want a change from the usual fare, the bass line on this one is arguably the best of any Xmas song?

Another one bites the dust must be up there somewhere, soon as you hear the first 3 notes you know what it is, apologies if it’s already been mentioned

Great bass line, although arguably a derivative of Chic Good Times?!

Two from Queen spring to my mind …

The Invisible Man and Dragon Attack

 

Two from Def Leppard …

Man Enough and Rock On

The first is an original, the second is not. It's a cover of a David Essex song.
