How can people NOT like Duran Duran. They wrote some seriously complex and clever music.

I watched this years ago, I cannot believe I didn't leave a comment, Fabulous work, Taylor is one of my all time favourites and how he wrote that bass line is beyond me, as a drummer I know the importance of bass to the backbone of a song and with this rendition I can see the backbone is in good hands, excellent, If you want to do a new video of it I am sure it will be well received. love it, Thank you

Yes KILLED it love this song, . Thank you for this.

The most optimistic song and music video of the 80s with a great bass line. Watching the video always put me in a good mood. Great job on the bass line!

Bravissima. Controllo delle ghost notes totale. Brava!!!

[johnvandenberg]

Good transitions. Perfect ghost tones. Fantastic.

love this love the fact you put something of your personality into the performance

One of my all time favorite songs, mainly because of the bass. You did a fantastic job covering the song. You could see that you were having fun playing the song, the confidence you showed, you know you're a great bass player, totally nailed this song. Amazing job, thanks for sharing.

Brilliant playing. I've been a professional for over 35 years as a bass player. I love anybody who can play that part the right way.

Una linea di basso molto impegnativa. Complimenti, davvero.

[BubblyBanjax]

As much as I love this song and your bass playing...I find myself coming back to watch this video just to see you smile to yourself when the first chorus kicks in :)
Keep on groovin'!

One of my fav bassline... Great playing ! You got the groove !

[wolfx]

Kudos. You're one of three people that I've seen get  both sets of ghost notes that John does in several sections of the verse, as well as the chorus. Very smooth on the bridge as well. I've been experimenting with sliding up to the C in the bottom string (E) to get the thicker tone but I'm not sure I like the transition. Excellent cover.

one of all my all time favorite songs and one of the hardest base lines ever... well done

[Wildcard-wtjw]

I've been trying like hell to learn this song..your fingers move so gracefully

[rassmuesoloff]

WOW! I am AMAZED at you natural talent! I wish I could play as well as you! I consider this song AND the Eric Clapton "AFTER MIDNIGHT" as the BASS STANDARDS by which we will all be judged. You have nailed it! DO NOT let any trolls
run you down!!!!  YOU ARE

A volte tiri indietro però il groove è generalmente buono e anche il suono di basso. Lavora di più sul metronomo. Bravissima! :)
