Easiest Songs to Cover for Beginners

[Misterwogan]

I'm looking for nominations in the category of really cool songs that are also easy to play for the beginner bassist.

My nomination is:
Earth Wind and Fire - Let's Groove. There is just one easy riff and another easy lick at the bridge. Killer song too, brings back many happy memories from 1981.

Please do not nominate:
My Lovely Horse by Father Ted Crilly and Father Dougal Maguire. Although this song has just one note, it is very difficult to get to the end - this video will explain...
