September 13, 200817 yr I'm listening to Viva La Vida, and I LOVE Guy's bassline, especially when it kicks in at 3.00-ish. Others I would say; White Shadows, Sparks, Daylight (!!!) that's all I can think of for now.
September 13, 200817 yr I love it in Things I Don't Understand - its so different for Guy, because it basically defines the melody, but it definitely works. I love it! *Searches for it in music library* Cemeteries and Violet Hill are great too, I think it saves Violet Hill from being a bland mesh of guitars, actually.
September 14, 200817 yr sparks, clocks, god put a smile upon your face, daylight, white shadows, LOW, square one, life in technicolor, violet hill and DEATH AND ALL HIS FRIENDS
September 15, 200817 yr It seems no one has mentioned In My Place yet I was just listening to it and think d bassline is pretty good. Also in my top favs (not in order) of Guy's bass playing are : SparksWhite ShadowsI Ran AwayWarning signGPASUFLowSquare oneCemetries of LondonViolet HillThe Hardest partDeath and All His Friends
September 15, 200817 yr It may not be his greatest work, but if you listen the bass chords in Lovers in Japan they are great
September 15, 200817 yr Chris keeps saying the best part of lovers is the bass. It's not particularly unique, just driving u2-esque root notes but that's all it really needed.
September 15, 200817 yr sparks, clocks, god put a smile upon your face, daylight, white shadows, LOW, square one, life in technicolor, violet hill and DEATH AND ALL HIS FRIENDS yayy finaly someone agrees with me!
September 16, 200817 yr High speed and white shadows. not really a huge fan of high speed, but the bass is sick!
September 16, 200817 yr I've never really listened especially to the bass lines. But now I'm thinking, Daylight must be my favourite.
September 16, 200817 yr Author I never paid much attention to Guy's Hardest Part (bassline), but after I saw him gyrating in the video for that song I've been hooked.
September 17, 200817 yr I must hear this "Things I Don't Understand" song you guys speak of! Anyway: Everything's Not Lost Sparks GPASUYF Warning Sign Daylight Clocks Square One White Shadows Speed of Sound Lost! (live version) Death and All His Friends
September 17, 200817 yr Low isnt that good on the Electric guitar but the bass is great, 42 is good too. Every song he does listen to the Bass, they are always great!! Guy Berryman=Excellent Musician
September 17, 200817 yr I must hear this "Things I Don't Understand" song you guys speak of! Anyway: *nods* you should really, the bass owns that song :cool:
