Simple, iconic, funky, intricate, whatever floats your boat

Rules:
- no repeats from the previous Basslines round
- no previous winners

How convenient

 

[Elton Johns Wig]

Hard to beat a one man cabal....

 

[TubbsFarquhar]

Ugh, who created the new thread? All podiums and halls aren't on the first page anymore.

 

[ChappyUK]

Hard to beat a one man cabal....

They have to do it themselves.

 

[Back One Out]

Sentimentality is my guess. Also probably 5 from SM.

Harsh billy

I like Macca

The phrase "musical genius" is thrown around willy-nilly, but he really is a musical genius
The song was okay. Not one of my favourites of his, but I enjoyed it.

 

[raskolnikov]

Damn. I can't nominate my favourite bass line ever as I've already won with it.

 

[Back One Out]

It's not John Cafferty, it's Eddie and the Cruisers!

I can't believe nobody nominated that when we had a "fictional bands" theme way way back

Stillwater won (from Almost Famous)

I got 4 or 5 votes for Boytown's I Cry

 

[The Speaker]

Ugh, who created the new thread? All podiums and halls aren't on the first page anymore.

AND my round didn't start it. Poor effort all round.

I was hoping to like that Nujabes track, but I didn't really like it on the first listen
Something off kilter about it.

I gave it another go this evening and thought it was pretty decent.
No votes from me, but I can understand why you love it

There's something about the piano, and then the sax, gives me a lot of feeling you can hear the emotion through those instruments.
