BECOME A PATRON TO GET SONGS/TABS: www.patreon.com/coversolutions Hard one. I discovered the fast 16th notes (G#, F#) are not played with a hammer or as some players do. That adds a different level of difficulty. You can easily go for the hammer ons though, but some videos of Freddie Washington prove that this is the way for the groove. I recommend playing slowly and having already a good slap sound acquired (good hand position, stamina, wrist movement). I honestly think i still don't have the skill to master this. I'm not that great at slapping, so sorry about that. If you have any question you can ask me. I'll answer. Song is in F# Minor: F# Natural Minor (Relative to A) (With F# C# G#) i F#m (F# C# G#) or F#m7 (F# A C# E) for extended harmony ii° G#dim (G# B D) ii G#m7 (G# B D F#) probably coming from F# Dorian (E Major) III A (A C# E) iv Bm (B D F#) V B/C# (C# B D# F#) suspended chord v C#m (C# E G#) or C#m7 (C# E G# B) for extended harmony VI D (D F# A) or Dmaj9 (D F# A C# E) for extended harmony VII E (E G# B)

[@SoManyInterests]

CoverSolutions Could you explain the part on the 16th notes again please ?

[@MertKöse1745]

What does (2) mean in the song?

[@levilee207]

Dude you killed it anyway. This shit looks tough and my slap accuracy is shit so it's neat seeing you play this. Thanks for the hard work!

[@MJTbreww]

At 3:24 in the ghost note section, you normally use x's to represent ghost notes but you've got (2)'s and (3)'s. Is this for assistance in positioning or am I missing something? edit: Using headphones, it sounds like they were just muted notes. Fantastic playing, cannot believe you're apologising for some in my eyes great slapping!

[@jjwp-ql5rv]

@@MJTbreww (2) is a ghost note. You play a 2 softly.

Thank you so much! This was my parents song. My mother passed away about 2 years ago now, and I can't even describe the smile on my father's face when I was able to play this for him. Thank you!♥️♥️

[@dvt1393]

Beautiful story. I'm so very sorry for your loss. My deepest condolences to you and your family. She lives on through the music, and she was there with you when you played this for your father. 🙂

I'm a guitar player from the disco ages. We did this song. EXTREMELY awesome VERY VERY cool!!!!! EXTREMELY well, done!

[@filippa6839]

I’ve had my bass for 9,5 months and I figured I need to challenge myself more to improve faster like I did in the beginning and this is so fun to play, a great way to practice my slapping as well. 9,5 months isn’t a lot but I’ve been OBSESSED ever since I started playing (and even before) so I’ve already bought my second bass (a Fender for $850😬) and I’m starting in a music senior high school on august 18th and it includes a lot of bass lessons and just music lessons in general. Senior high schools here in Sweden are 3 years long so I’m really excited to see where I am in 3 years. I don’t think I’ll ever get tired of basses, all I ever think about are my basses when I’m not at home lmao. I’m 16 now and so I’ll be attending music school till I am 19. I auditioned for like 8 different music schools and I got in to my first choice even tho I had only played for 4 months when I auditioned. All of the bass teachers, music teachers and music store owners I’ve played to have said that it sounds like I’ve been playing for longer than I actually have which really keeps me motivated, I seem to learn quickly which makes me really excited to see where I’m at when I’ve played for a year or even 3 years when I’ve finished school. One of my favourite bassists is from Sweden too and she went to the same music high school as me and now she’s working with artists like Harry Styles which is really inspiring. I also saw CHIC and Nile Rodgers live in concert this summer and the bassist in CHIC (Jerry Barnes, the one who replaced Bernard Edwards) started following me on Instagram after we spoke after the show. Sorry for writing all of this lol, I have a tendency to over share and overthink bc of my adhd

[@dutchmansem6228]

wow, Good luck!

[@filippa6839]

[@str_anger505]

hey, how are you doing now? are you still in senior high school ?

[@eyemotif]

for anyone wanting to play this, i recommend looking up how to play the double thumb slap technique. itll make playing those 16th notes so much easier.

[@Its_a_bad_idea]

ENA

[@eyemotif]

@@Its_a_bad_idea so true!

[@thornels]

That's not how Freddie does it tho

[@druid5931]

While using that technique makes it easier, it’s better to first emulate and get comfortable doing it the way the bass player does it. It gives you more tools to use.

[@voidynator]

@@druid5931i cant do it that fast yet 😢

[@patrickperrouin3479]

AHHHHHHH THE SOUND OF FENDER BASS! the wood!! and the RIFF! so funky! love this song and the singer! And the musicians !!!for the enregistrement!

This is not a fender dude..

[@zachkaeser8320]

The mastery on display here is incredible. Not a single flub for 5 straight minutes. Amazing. Those ghost notes at measure 82 are so tasty.

[@drstew1]

I can just see how this was originally created. It was felt. The bass finding its path. Beautiful.

[@TheGreenTucan]

I just realized that the letters on the top of the tab sheet tell you whether to slap or pluck.:) hope that helps you too haha!

[@marcio_souza007]

I've just watched it for the first time. Thank you for the tip!

correction: pop instead of pluck. Pluck would be finger style

Best bass cover version of this song in KZbin! Thanks. I've been practising this song almost 3 years now and can still find things I can do better. Not an easy to play on bass. Almost daily I play this on bass. Very good song to practise.

[@mv9787]

I listened to those you mentioned and not that good, but not bad either. I still practice this song. Now I play those 6 fast thump notes through the string (like in this video btw!). Sounds better. Julia plays groove version is the best I’ve heard so far of this song. She’s a great bassist, she’s got the groove

[@edilsonarruda210]

Classic! Classic! Classic! Very colorful bass line and also very difficult, because there are several techniques involved. The rhythmic standard is also highly sophisticated. Great style.

just got my first bass , will see how much i can play right now. i can barely play anything, this song sounds as hard as it really is-

[@badonkadonk8745]

hey! 2years and a half bass player here. Dont start with too difficult song, but youll eventually get to a point where youll learn bass slap. Forget me nots sounds difficult but its not when you know your rythmic and how to slap proprely. Its like Hysteria - Muse, you think its difficult while its not. Its all a question of endurance 😔 Like, i know how to play both correctly but its hard to keep up 5 minutes of doing only that. Good Luck ! Even if its difficult try to practice everyday ( at least 30mn ) and play songs you like. Youll see your progress eventually

[@novacorps2468]

This is awesome! This is such a complex song to cover. I wanted to know if you ever heard of the song Misdemeanor by Foster Sylver? It was a minor hit with a wonderfully complex bassline. It was produced by Leon Sylvers III who produced many hits for Solar records in the 80s.

Another great cover you have here. It's funny, when I look for Bass Covers for songs I want to learn your channel shows up 90% of the time. I guess we have the same taste in music. I was trying to watch your thumb to see if at any time you were slapping down and then up. Would you say that your thumb always uses a down slap?
