    For those ·"great condecorated musicians" out here commenting the difficulty of the song, just to remember them that music does not consist of difficulty, but in creating atmospheres, landscapes and Feeling! That´s what music is all about. Sometimes a melody is difficult to play, and sometimes is not.
    And sometimes the most difficult things to play are those simple things like a 2 chord song or a 4 chord bass line, because its own simplicity. Keep a perfect timming here withou relaxing is the point. Great bass tone here!!

    Adam Clayton might not be rated as one of the "great" bassists of his generation but I believe he gives to the songs what the songs require without over complicating things unnecessarily. For me personally what I find challenging with his basslines is that you need to be a frigging metronome in order to keep time. It so easy to drift off when playing 8th notes across so many bars - not to mention keeping track of where exactly you are within the overall structure of the song. Respect!

    • @stewartmckinlay2374
      @stewartmckinlay2374 Před rokem +3

      I completely agree he is a very very good bassist . One of the perfect few song Bassists I call them , serves the song very well. And considering he couldn't play when he joined he quickly became very talented . Very underrated in my opinion

      Not only that, Adam is one of those bass players who introduced harmonic syncopation in his bass lines. He lets on root notes of an oncoming chord, building anticipation.

And now a few months later I've been able to play mostly in sync for the whole song ! Im sure it wasn't that great but it feels good to be able to play a bassline at a correct level, even an easy one (im sure in a few years I'll wonder how i ever struggled to match the rhythm lmao )

    Good job! This is a great song to practice using two fingers on your plucking hand since you only have to move on two strings. really helps with the rhythm. Plus it won't make you look like a beginner. No matter how simple a song is to play always, index and middle fingers.

    • @gooble69

      No, not always. Single finger plucking is a legitimate technique that even pros use sometimes.

    tips for people trying to learn (new or not) it helps if you count 1& 2& 3& 4& instead of 1 2 3 4. it just helps you keep your timing if you aren’t using a metronome after 4& you’d just go back to 1&
    &= and// so it would be 1 and 2 and 3 and 4 and 1…

      😁…..it was definitely one of my first tunes I learned when I first started to play bass. I still like to use it them to warm up my fingers, alternating. Especially, since arthritis moved on in and set up shop in my hands🤬. 😁
      Others that are pretty sweet beginner songs to feel like you’re a bass rock n roller🤭….ZZ TOPP “Sharp Dressed Man”…”Rough Boy”….”Tv Dinners”……Alan Parsons Project’s “Eye In the Sky”….MANY Classic Country tunes….
      Of course, songs like Boston’s “More Than a Feeling”…ELO’s “Last Train To London”…Queen and Bowie’s “Under Pressure”….and, James Taylor’s “Doctor, My Eyes” (**or, basically, ANYTHING by the GREAT, Lee Sklar…James’ “Up On the Roof” being a HUGE favorite to still play today🤘🏾🎼🤙🏾🤙🏾) are among greats to love and play.
      But, the early days’ simple tunes are still sweet to use🎼

    U2 is a group comprised of musicians with average chops, an enormous signal chain, and an above average lead singer that's dumb and self absorbed enough to think he's qualified to tell the rest of us how to live even though he's never had a real job. They do excel at writing catchy hooks and do put on entertaining live shows. Adam Clayton can do the basics and that's all U2 expects from him.

    I am sorry but this is not accurate. The slide from 2nd to 5th fret each time the riff starts from the beginning has to be intended ON THE UPBEAT of the last 4 of the last bar, so the DOWNBEAT of the first 1 of the first one is a D note. This shows that even the easiest riff can be played wrong if not accurate. One could say this is a slight mistake but the groove of the original recording is not there, sorry.

    It’s good song but I can imagine just repeating that line would get boring after a while

    Yeah, not bad. But it's still wrong. Firstly check Adam Clayton's fingering ; Open A string, not a fretted E string on 5th gives a much better sound. Also where is the Octave work at the end? EG...10th on E, 17th,19th, 15th etc?

    Well, still better bass than metallica xd. Anyway nice job, but you need to be more lock in, especialy in pure rythmic bass :).
