Video blocked worlwide. I filed a dispute, so i think you can see it in the meantime, not really sure. It will probably be blocked after a month or something like that. The line is great. Good melodic movement through the chords, specially at the ending parts. You could say the song's key is on D Major with the usual presence on popular music of a flat VII grade (C), or maybe you could say the song is on D Mixolydian with an approach back on D Major with the A. I tend to incline more for the first one:

D Major (F# C#)

*I D (D F# A)*
*II Em (E G B)*
III F#m (F# A C#)
*IV G (G B D) or G/B (with the bass on B)*
*V A (A C# E)*
VI Bm (B D F#)
*bVII C (C E G) or Cadd9 (C E G D)*
VII C#dim (C# E G)

This song is about 1000% more complicated than I thought it would be.

[MaquiladoraIII]

Gotta love The Bends tuning a 1/4 step off. Top, top cover.

Amazing basss

[beck_tybg]

Please do more Radiohead songs. Myxamatosis if possible. Personally any song would make me happy.

[dreproulx]

I just wanted to thank you for these stellar bass covers. The videos are clean, your playing and technique are great. Some of your videos have saved me a bunch of time lifting material by ear. I should have subscribed earlier, but I just did now and will continue watching.

[ordiskamillaeisdottir]

Can you do "Planet Telex" by Radiohead

[intravena]

TIL it's called The Bends cause if you're tuned to 440hz you have to slightly bend it up.

[chenjakov]

[marcinjakistam]

Try some Polish song maybe "King Bruce Lee Karate Mistrz" by Franek Kimono

A lot of Rush influence here imo. I hear some Plush STP bass stylings in here too.
