I was wondering what song you guys enjoyed playing most...

For me i guess right now it's "message in a bottle" by the police. (since i dont know too many more)

If you like the Police, you should learn "Spirits in the Material World". It's easy and very fun to play.

With the current band it's Whitesnake/Fool For You Lovin' by an absolute mile! We rock it out a bit like the 89 version, but I keep the original 82/Neil Murray bass line. I suffer the entire first set of pedalling root notes just to get to play that one song later in the night.

Almost any Gentle Giant, "Completion Backward Principle" album by the Tubes, "Breakfast in America" album by Supertramp, "From the Inside" album by Alice Cooper; the list goes on...just can't decide. I usually throw one on and crank it up!

I learned Stu Hamm's "Love Thing" last week. I can tell my room mate is sick of it, but I like it a lot.

Right now it's either High and Dry by Radiohead, Reptilia by The Strokes, or Stand by Me by The Temptations? (Wikipedia said Ben E. King but tab site I got it from said the Temptation, confusing...)

Just learned 'Soul To Squeeze' by RHCP. It's really fun to play. Very melodic bassline, especially in the chorus. Don't have all the detailed little riffs and inflections down yet. Heck the whole song is pretty much a Flea solo! lol.
