Suggest some Songs with great bass lines!

[joeca0304]

Nothing amazing per say, but this little track by Saves the day called freakish has an intersting bass line that flows with the song really well. Anyone else have favorites? Or something similar to this song.

I like everything really, metal, punk, hard rock so let me know. Thanks!

I'll reply the way I always reply to this question:

"Come On, Come Over" from Jaco's debut record. Tasteful, groovy, soulful. Simple yet amazing. ...the ultimate bass line.

Money (of course) by Pink Floyd. One of these days (<3 walking bass line!), Pink Floyd also. Come Together by the Beatles...Drive my Car, also Beatles. Heart of the Sun, Roundabout, by Yes.
