Hammer on from open to 2nd fret (i.e. don't pluck the note on the 2nd fret).

And just as an aside, the TAB renders much better if you whack it in "codebox" tags:

[codebox]G:------------------------------------------------2------2---0h2-----|
D:-2---2---0h2---------2---0h2---4------4---2h4----------------------|
A:---------------2-------------------------------------------------2-|x1
E:-------------------------------------------------------------------|
[/codebox]

The Talk-Talk and the No-Doubt versions have lots of detail differences. Different key for a start (Eb vs. E). The original is probably a touch harder - you can't play it with open strings!. Great bass-line either way. It gets more fun right after the the bit you've tabbed of course :)

We have a female vocalist so that's why doing the No doubt version.

Being a huge Talk Talk fan I obviously hate the No Doubt version! :rolleyes: For me the playing on the original is far superior.

In any case have fun with it, it's great bass line. :)

I forgot... the original is fretless too! The pitching was nearly as bad as mine which gives it a bit of charm IMHO!

I'm with you on that also, nothing beats the Talk Talk version. Big Talk Talk and Paul Webb fan also. If you want a challenge, try learning Living In Another World. I am very nearly there.

When Paul Webb commented on my version, he said he prefered to play fretless in the studio and fretted live.
