That's a great bassline, and it is a little hard to hear, because the tone is so bassy. But keep working on it and you'll be happy when you get it. The only real tough part is the main riff, hearing wise, because it changes the second time through. "Is This Love" and "Get Up Stand Up" are also great to do.
