Post your covers! (2024)

It is with great hesitation that I present the video below. This is my first cover video, 6 weeks after beginning my bass journey.

Posted not as a good version, but as a “here’s where i’m at” reference to come back to later. As others have said in their posts, as I was recording I started messing up more than normal and I could feel my limited technique falling apart. There’s some places where I have no clue what I thought I was doing–check out those some of those mangled crossings from a D to an A in the chorus where I started putting other fingers down on the still ringing A string to “help” me get to the E string. Egad!

Anyway, enjoy (or probably don’t). Youtube video on the laptop for the backing track, recorded by my phone. Bass is a Squier Sonic P into a Fender Rumble 25.

And yes, I altered the song title because my playing in this video will likely make many of you uncomfortable.
