"Just because there is a bass line in a great song doesn’t mean that the bass line is a great bass line"
- Davie 504 -
Oath
I just saw it😂😂
@@samrathsidhu1209 epico
@@foxface9892 yes
True that.
its funny how the honorable mentions are considered as some of the best basslines in the bass community
Here after Davie 504?
@@tanishqkhandelwal8360 no?
@Sam Wessels you're lying man
You're from Davie504
@@samwessels8216 you should check out his latest video btw, you will love him
@@tanishqkhandelwal8360 yes and came here to say the exact same thing. The honorable mentions are better than their actual list
Let me save you 13 minutes of your life:

- "Panic attack" - Dream Theater
- "Roundabout" - Yes
#1 - Another one bites the dust - Queen
Thanks bro
Man most of the honorable mentions are better than actual list smh
is john deacon middle name "genius"?
I can't believe Maiden gets placed 10...
Roundabout honorable mention? What a joke
The Chain by Fleetwood Mac should be on the list. It has possibly the most memorable riff
My thoughts exactly
Yes!
I think Rhiannon’s baseline is even better
Should be called "Top 10 Bassist's 3rd best songs".
HONESTLY
I know "American Life" from Primus? How about Jerry was a Racecar Driver? Or Tommy the Cat? Both way better more memorable bass parts. Rush and Primus should have been number 1 and 2 as we all know. Either order would have been fine.
TairyGreen89 the entire list could have been primus and everyone would have agreed
American life for Primus?! At least golden boy or John the Fisherman deserved that spot.
Random songs by bassists everyone knows
Are we all going to just forget about N.I.B by Black Sabbath?
Or into the void
Yeah wtf
That’s the only reason I’m
Here, thanks for saving me 14 minutes
or No More Tears
Its not that good.
Made by people that can't hear bass in songs
I love your hecking profile picture so much-
@@scbengarde thanks
Just like the the top ten head banging songs, it’s all popular songs. In my opinion yyz would’ve been top 3
Besides dazed and confused
Maybe not my picks, but okay. They were all good picks.
I love how the who, led zeppelin, and queen's bass players are named John
John Deacon is better & hotter lol
@@NeilTennantsWifey what do you mean JPJ and Entwistle are levels better than deacon
@@NeilTennantsWifey not really, JPJ is way better. And i'm a massive Queen fan
all are great bassist and were known as the quiet ones for their respective band
@@NeilTennantsWifey i am a queen fan but you are wrong
'The Chain' by Fleetwood Mac will forever remain my favourite
Do it for The bass When a song is created solely to accommodate the bassline, you know it’ll be good.
Do it for The bass amazing bass solo
@@metalinyourhead3604 I agree
Yep
YES!
The fact there is no mention of Cream or Black sabbath seems wrong
Yeah, NIB--Black Sabbath is a Sick Bassline
Spoonful, man...
yea it really does
Jojo stand
@@arneshpal7702 fuck off
Come Together is one of my favorites but I Want You (She's So Heavy) should've been in the list
Hello Jimmy!
Hysteria and feel good inc are honourable mentions?
Mostly Hysteria??
I was here for that and Another one Bites the Dust
Feel Good Inc. For sure.
Calm down. This is just a video made by people standing their own opinions for people who also stand their own opinions as well.
I think compare the other songs from feel good inc, it deserves to be in the honourable mention
Let me guess: Another one Bites the Dust, Queen?
Yeah, wasn't even a second thought
+Lorentz Lossius lol
Of course.
Don't try Suicide had a better one
+Benny Biggums Or Dragon Attack, really.
what about the chain by Fleetwood Mac
Shadow Fan That one should be #1.
Well, I think they got the number 1 right, but The Chain should be number 2
Amen, where TF is the Chain??
The Chain should easily have been in here and probably number one but hey its Watchmojo what do you expect?
I have watched 3 of these top 10/20 baselines videos now. Not a single mention of the Chain. Ridiculous
Despite the ranking of AOBTD, John Deacon is a criminally underrated bassist.
He's just a criminal
@Mike. Hunt. smooth criminal
he's not even underrated like at all
he's a really appreciated bassist
I was saying John Paul Jones is slept on. That is still true, but Deacon is even more underrated.
Led Zeppelin have the most incredible bass lines: Dazed and confused, The lemon song, How many more times, Ramble on, Whole lotta love... John Paul Jones the best bassist of all time
Thank you now I must learn
He is also a multi instrumentalists and he can play anything
Achilles last stand
the opening of How Many More Times never gets old
Rush is better
It is remarkable how most of the honerable mentions would be better fitting on the list than those that actually made it there.
Nicklas Jensen gorillaz for. #1
Right? Schism is an honorable mention?
Janine De I think schism should have been an honorable mention, it's a guitar line played on bass. Don't get me wrong I love tool but Justin chancellor just isn't a traditional bass player
Marc Forte what Tool Song didn't have a badass Bassline though
madkiller tool has a good bit of really good bass lines
Something from And Justice For All... better be here.
Malkovith1 greatest comment ever lol
I wanna kms lol wow
How about "Ceeping Death ?"
Personally I think they should have used '(Anaethsesia) Pulling Teeth' from Kill 'Em All...
Malkovith1 for whom the bell tolls should be here
Roundabout being an honorable mention instead of being on the list is a joke.
Geddy lee could easily have filled this list. Yyz, leave that thing alone, animate, circumstances, and pretty much every one of their songs
don't forget turn the page... that song gives me nightmares
Gaston Chiasson true that 🤘
Also Malignant Narcissism. That's his best bass work for sure.
@Lucas Neal for sure - S & A is super underrated
Agree!
John Deacon is the reason why I now have a bass.
And Bernard Edwards' bass line in Chic's "Good Times" is the reason that that John Deacon is very rich.
ArthurPewtey how tho? He was a successful and good bass player
Just giving credit where it is due. The video is about bass lines, not bass players, and Deacon clearly appropriated his bass line in "Another One Bites the Dust" from Edwards.
ArthurPewtey but that's a different story
If another bites the dust is not how Freddie Mercury made it to be then john Deacon would still be rich from his success in queen
same
Peace Sells by Megadeth is another good one
ikr
Definitely my favorite bassline, and one of my favorite and most badass intros to metal song.
Absolutely
+AntonyPancake or dawn patrol
I was about to say that
Fleetwood Mac’s “The Chain”
How this wasn't on this list blows my mind
@@jacobsutton8798 in a list with pink floyd and led zeppelin name on it ? if it was that would be mind-blowing pal :) but ps that list was no good i believe ...
I particularly like how the narrator talks over most of these great bass lines
Rev up that low end? More like Rev up those fryers amirite
Go back to Flavortown!
WatchMojo Top 10 Reasons I'm Pissed My Favorite Song doesn't Get Picked.
Well written. Agreed.
Eh, I always think of lists like this as, well, someone's list. I've gotten too old to argue. I'll still point out that you are wrong, of course.
More like WatchMojo top 10 songs where Queen is going to be either number 1 or 2.
The Fountain of Salmacis by Genesis.
Come as you are >:c
Hysteria deserves WAY more than an honourable mention.
That bass line is a finger paralyzer
It's should've been on the list
It's so great
I’m glad roundabout and feel good inc were honorable mentions
Another one bites the dust is a lot more iconic, so it’s acceptable
Yes and "Roundabout" Chris Squire
Deserves more than honorable mention. Not entirely sure YYZ would have been my pick for Rush, either, but there are so many to choose from. The bass playing in Red Barchetta is from another world...
Definitely should have been in TOP 5
I searched for this video after listing to yes. They should have been in the top 5
Yes - Roundabout!!!!! Unbelievable bassline that makes the song.
@Faded Tuber JOJO!!!!!!!!!!!!
You were expecting a fellow bassist but no IT WAS I A JOJO FAN
Wetzel Clan like every Squire bassline.
Ziggy P what about both?
Needs more Chris Squire, Jack Bruce, and Butler Geezer
Nib by geezer butler tho
That song rocks
I can’t agree more about No. 1! Queen is my favourite band and Another One Bites the Dust has my favourite bassline
IVE BEEN WAITING FOR THIS FUCKING VIDEO
Alex Mason? Is this your real name or do you enjoy the black ops one and two storyline?
+patrick conlon xD lol
+patrick conlon it's my real name haha, geez
Me too
+Alex Mason yer ima bass player
Keep this comment at an even amount of likes
Shut the fuck up
Its at zero. Done
nope
Made it 5 for ya
+Angel Lopez why asking for likes kid
John Deacon is perhaps the most underrated bassist in rock, I am so glad he took the top spot in this list, he truly deserves it.
he's like probably the least underrated out of all bassists on this list
Yeah he deserves it
@@ddave3388He's like probably the most underrated bassist in music.
We all knew what's gonna be no.1 ❤️
Deacon ❤️
I was thinking it would be Deacon but I thought it was going to be Under Pressure but AOBTD has John playing lead so I am guessing that is why that was the chosen song.
No
I thought it was feel good inc but yes that too
Queen bass lines arent that great compared to other legends.
Its freddies charisma and voice what made the band so legendary.
@@mood7143Queen isn't Freddie. Queen is four equal people.
Tool as an honorabe mention? come on watchmojo.
No doubt. The pot???
Yeah! or 46 and 2?!
Schism
any tool song
+jared wood yeah pretty much
No one knows actually has a pretty sick bassline
Very underrated green day song
And so Is words I might have ate
Have to agree heavily
Have to agree heavily
+iKavix Daft Punk has some good basslines but they arent a rock band :/
I'm glad you included some Cliff Burton, but not even a mention of Anesthesia (Pulling Teeth)?
I'm not sure bass solos and basslines are the same thing
Actually as much as I love Orion
For whom the bell tolls is actually cliff Burton's masterpiece.
My top 10 basslines
10. Warthchild
9. Jerry was a race car driver
8. Dazed and confused
7. Money
6. Come together
5. Yyz
4. My generation
3. NIB
2. For whom the bell tolls
1. Another one bites the dust
Wheres is Geezer Butler with N.I.B?
Sebastian Ponce just geezer in general, what about some solitude
Sebastian Ponce
FUUUCKK YEEESSS
The song that got me into metal!
no shit.
Sebastian Ponce ikr
Roundabout deserves a place
Maikol69 .....close to the edge
So does "Good Times" by Chic
Should be nr1
Yes, Yes! Now decide which one is me agreeing and which one is the band's name.
Most DEF!
How are you just going to open with "Longview" and not even include it on the list? Have you HEARD Mike Dirnt?? He's a beast on the bass!
Came because of Davie
Hoped for John Entwistle
Stayed for Queen
Schism by Tool should've been on the list...
+Cyrekt or the pot, it was mostly just bass
+EuphoricRebel the pot
Absolutely.
He is on honorable mentions ;)
+Germain “Sheitz” Aymeric not good enough
There should have been at least one tool song
it's in Honerable mention
Konrad Gostomski yes but Tool deserves better on a list like this
agreed
+The Order of the Council of Nine. same haha or rush
no tool and rush are gay
Most of the honorable mentions could’ve taken the top spots
It is a crime not to have hysteria top 5
Half your honorable mentions are better than the others in the list..
Please tell me how Schism only grabs an honorable mention?🤦♂️
Josh Berg no kidding. Bunch of retards out here at watchmojo. Maybe if they understood advanced time signature swaps and irregular playing that adds a confusing sound that actually works.
@@383_mtb7 Very good call.
czcams.com/video/80RtBeB61LE/video.html
Because this boomers think it's illegal to put anything in the new milennium on a list
46 and 2 didn't even get an honorable mention, honestly triggered me
@@iliketrains3495 You don't even know what a boomer is by making this statement. Baby Boomers are in their 60s and 70s now. If you think they are all about the internet and new technology you don't know many.
If My Generation was not on here, I would've been so mad, John never gets any screen time.
Emmonince front is better IMO
I always thought the bassline on Who Are You is more memorable than My Generation. It would have made the top 3.
Personally would’ve preferred to see the real me
Tony Levin's bass line for "Sledgehammer" is SO unique and powerful.
I vote for “Would” by Alice in Chains
Same
Yep
That's a badass bass line
I agreed
Ok it’s a great sounding bass line, I don’t know if I would include it tho. Not that impressive. Still sounds so good tho
Exactly
Peace Sells - Dave Ellefson, bassist for Megadeth
I guess No One is Buying...
@@romanfields7900 yeah man
Whaddaya mean he's not on this list?
Damn shame Geezer Butler doesn't even rate an honorable mention. He laid down some of Sabbath's best tunes.
So many great songs out there with memorable bass lines. Sweet Emotion by Aerosmith, No More Tears by Ozzy Osbourne, and 40 Six and 2 by Tool are three of my favorites.
Funk is a subgenre of rock? What alternate marvel timeline are you from?
Eric Perry it is though? Have you ever had a music theory/history class?
Funk and rock comes from the jazz music.
I don't think he even played a funk song in this video. All those rock bass parts were great, but why even mention Funk if you're not gonna play any?
@@chazmartin5725 American Life is funk tho?
epin pelaja Some American lives. Others are clearly Sir Nose devoid ofFunk!
Cliff burton shredding bass still takes my breath away.
Most overrated bass player. I love Metallica, but Cliff was more of a guitar than bass player.
zoranhome I see you point, and second that.
3:19 OMFG he actually said that it's has a connection to thrash metal and he also said "headbobbing". that's why people who have no idea about something shouldn't make videos about it
YOU FOOLS! How could you leave out Fleetwood Mac's "The Chain"!? It's arguably the most iconic bassline in Rock History!
As a veteran drummer it always pisses me off when people and the internet badmouth bass players. Like they are useless or talent-less. The fact is without bass the song would sound extremely thin. You never really notice the huge contribution the bass makes to a piece of music until it is removed.
Thanks for giving us some props
I don't think they're bad mouthed, but under-appreciated. But most people on the Internet don't play any instruments, especially drums or bass
+austindorf83 Agreed. And that's exactly one of the problems with the internet. People talk shit about things they have absolutely no experience with. Then a sheep follows it....then more sheep and more sheep. Before you know it a wide spread ideal has become universal and it's totally false. Of course this happens usually with teens who have almost zero life experience and are just trying to act like they know everything to impress people.
We are the keepers of the groove. Much love and props to my bass a drummer brothers and sisters!
+Elzorrogris74 Yup. And lets me honest here....guitar can make you feel many emotions, but bass and drums is what gets peoples ass shakin and toes tapping. "Brick House" by The Commodores....nuff said. lol.
John McVie's bassline, in almost any Fleetwood Mac song. But more than any, "The Chain", should be here.
Janine De the chain isn't on here?!? I'm gonna stop watching this video right now
John Deacon has stated that he was inspired by Good Times (Chic) bassline by the late great Bernard Edwards. Also, Mayor of Simpleton by XTC should have been there.
Roundabout doesn't deserves a simple mention... It's a masterpiece!!
If roundabout is not in here im gonna loose my shit.
Honorable mention, good enough hehe
Chris Squire! These ratings....(:
:), I remember showing the bass score to roundabout to a sight reading Bassist I knew in the early 80's, he was an awesome musician, black dude, Never listened to Yes...He played along for a few seconds and said; "Fuck that shit"! But he became a Yes head when I turned him on to stuff like Sound Chaser or Close to the Edge...
What's bad it Long Distance Runaround isn't there. That's the great Chris Squire doing it. Yeah, Roundabout is there but only as an honorable mention.
MrEmafon4 the only reason why I watched this to see if it is
Black Sabbath's N.I.B. should have at least got an honorable mention.
Alex Logan Geezer butler is rather underrated.
i was thinking the same thing
Warning
War Pigs also... Geezer is the man!
solitude
When the honorable mentions are better than the actual list.
Yeah haha really dazed and confused is on the list but not hysteria and roundabout? Shame
I thought the bassline in the latter part of FleetwoodMac's 'The Chain' should have rec'd at least an honorable mention.
It was used as BBC's F1 theme tune for many years.
no N.I.B not even as an honorable mention?
what even...
+Ride Bikes Every Day This was about rock music.
Karim Hussami
Rock n Roll, Light Rock, Hard Rock, Heavy Metal, the entire Rock genre.
ikr .it's gooddamn black sabbath
Banana Sam
what is?
That's more of a solo than a bassline, unless you're talking about the song itself and not the beginning
I think "Peace Sells" by Megadeth should be here
RIGHT
plus you heard every time you watched MTV News
Definitely
+Nicole Steiner Definitely. Or Dawn Patrol
+Nicole Steiner what about NIB?
The one and only time deaky will ever beat geddy lee on a list
Honestly YYZ should've been number one anyway
@@westter8164 nah too much metal and you won't hear the bass
@@deakksyy bruh
My fav bass line ever is-Chris Squire-Gates Of Delirium from the live Yesshows album. On fire he was .
agreed
With a large number of Yes cuts to choose from; Chris Squire should have definitely been on that list.
Everyone here is praising John Deacon and i’m just glad that John Paul Jones made it
Noah Stallings i love em both
LiveAtPompeii74 than who exactly?
@@cooperdellane9363 i personally prefer led zeppelin over queen. Regardless deacon is a hidden genius behind many of queens songs
Sorry if i caused disturbance
LiveAtPompeii74 your good😂 I love em both a lot and I’m well aware that JPJ is better than Deacon but I don’t know if Zeppelin is better than Queen. I listen to Zeppelin was more than Queen now but I still believe Queen is very slightly better.
I think that "I want you (She's so heavy)" has a better bassline that come together, or maybe "Rain", tbh.
TheGoodfella - I want you she's so heavy. Hell ya brother honerabel mention my friend
"Something"
Ridiculous that Yes did not make the list. Roundabout and Heart of the Sunrise are some of the most memorable bass lines of all time.
Roundabout is on the list.

Honorable Mention
Yeah, seems like a number of the "honorable mentions" deserved to be on the list. There were definitely some weak choices that made the actual list. This is after all a list of basslines, not greatest rock bassists....that has it's own list...

+Mylo X. I have learntit faster than in a week. YYZ and My Generation are much better and harder. I think you won't disagree that Geddy is playing much better than that guy in muse

This
barney miller
Law & Order if we're talking TV.
Well it was not played on a bass
Barney Miller?
glad to see AOBTD made it on the list 😌
The Funk Brothers James Jameson was one hell of a bass player!! I know it’s not rock but I’m sure he could play rock very well if he tried!!
My favourite Bassist is John Richard Deacon..Invisible Man
Fuck you Deacon is bass gawd!!!
Never heard of McCartney??
@@capilah6285 not very musically educated, eh, dirt?
@@capilah6285 well..you can't argue taste.
@@capilah6285 I never suggested you not enjoy Deacon's playing..simply that you don't be absurd. McCartney is clearly the more influential bass player.

Believe it or not I was listening to it while reading your comment.
exactly man
+SpamcakeRex or Stay Away
Breed too
+SpamcakeRex love buzz also
Oh come on! Surely Ian Dury & the Blockheads "Hit Me with your Rhythm Stick" and Norman Watt-Roy's bonkers bass line deserves to be in the top ten? It's insane!!

9. N.I.B
8. Jerry was a race car driver
7. Can't stop
6. Come together
5. Money
4. Come together
3. Roundabout
2. YYZ
1. Another one bites the dust
Heres my top ten:
10: Feel good Inc
9: Seven nation army
8-1: Seinfeld
seven nation army isnt bass though its played on a guitar
Derdyon but also on bass
they dont even have a bassist :p
Seinfeld was made on a keyboard with a bass synth
johnathan penczek RHCP is my favorit
Primus is funk metal, not only funk
Well the metal side has become less prominent in recent albums post-reunion. They generally get referred to as prog-funk now and Les Claypool hated the term "funk metal" anyway. Also Winamp gives them their own ID3 tag.
No, Primus is Primus. They fit into no other genre but their own.
@@joeysahouria5058 Nah they fit into funk metal pretty well.
Primus is primus. Why would you want to squeeze them into a genre?
We shouldn’t be asking what genre primus is we should be asking what planet are they from
I think nobody will care my list but:
10#- Donna Lee- Jaco Pastorius
9#- YYZ- Rush
8#- NIB- Black Sabbath
7#- Welcome To The Jungle- Guns N Roses
6#- For Whom The Bell Tolls- Metallica
5#- Roundabout- YES
4#- Feel Good Inc.- Gorillaz
3#- Silly Love Songs- Wings
2#- Something- The Beatles
1#- The Millionare Waltz- Queen
I just feel like Winona's Big Brown Beaver from Primus should be on this list. That bassline is legendary, different from anything I've listened to
Wynona's*
Sabbath's N.I.B. and Megadeth's Peace sells SHOULD BE ON HERE!!!
I am surprised that Megadeth wasn't one the list
Megadeath? hahahahahaah That is just noise.

+Vincent V I agree with you
But METALLICA is !

Queen Rocks, man. John Deacon, best bassist ever.
Lmaooo I follow u on IG fam
Lounge Act-Nirvana
Your selection for JPJ are spot on, but I would add The Song Remains the Same. As for Queen, I like the "Millionaire Waltz"
John Deacon is number one! He is so underrated as a musician/songwriter give him all the praise!
he`s an Genius
Thank you for this very hot bass documentation. Due to my age I already knew the older bass lines as from John Entwistle, Paul McCartney, John Paul Jones, Chris Squire and Roger Waters. I learned a lot of them. By listening and listening trying to copy them. My personal favorites are James Jameson, Donald Duck Dunn and Marcus Miller.
But what really set my on fire was "Another One Bites The Dust". I hat a new stereo equipement and heard the bass for the first time in my life. And that with this incredible hot and groovy bass line of John Deacon. And another favorite from whom I learned a lot, is Donald Duck Dunn. With the Blues Brothers as with Otis Redding as with Eric Clapton. I saw him live in the 80ies with Clapton. But in the mix, the bass was too low. That means, I could see, what he played, but not hear...
For whom the bell tolls deserves at least a honorable mention
You can pretty much just make a top ten Iron Maiden basslines for its own video.
+KAMbam absolutely (or maybe even a top 50)
+KAMbam yeah. Steve Harris is the greatest bassist of all time. but I think tail gunner or phantom of the opera should have been up there. Harris basically plays lead guitar in phantom. UP THE IRONS
+Levi Rodriguez nah, he's not. but he's way up there

That bassline is tight as fuck
+therodzyn17 Seriously I think they just threw stuff up here for the hits.
sadly not here
+therodzyn17 With Les Claypool's intro!
+Rhodes1966 That is exactly how this works-people like lists, top 10, top 100, or whatever, so they came up with a format to get views, and therefore make some ad money-top 10 this, that and the other thing-doesn't really matter what. All the lists are is just another opinion, no better than any other, and since it isn't mine, a totally irrelevant one.
Obviously any list of great bass lines, solos, bassist bandleaders, etc, ought to include Jaco-otherwise its laughable crap. I have spoken-agreement is mandatory for all humans.
I wanna be adored by stone roses has a brilliant bassline in it.
Totally agreed! Maybe on another list? :-)
They're always ignorant towards people like stone roses, when honestly they're the best band of all time in my opinion.
+DylFTWynne Totally forgot that one. That is a great one!
It's one of those that gets the crowd singing every note
Either I wanna be adored or Fools Gold
Hmm "Love will tear us apart" is the first song I thought of and it's not even on the list.
What about Queen's dragon attack
