Cover tunes done by bassists

Sign in to disble this ad
I would like to hear some of your suggestions of cover tunes done by bassists. I really like stuff where the bass plays the melody like Marcus Millers' "Amazing Grace" and Stu Hamms' " Peanuts Theme". I know there is a bunch of tracks like these but I just can't think of any right now.

Not just because he's a friend of mine, I find this cover by Sean Andrews of Redemption to be quite beautiful:
