Somebody stole my bassline!

[WardEarth]

Man, they didn't just rip off your bass line, those damn woodland critters stole the whole damn song. Damn. And the singing is spot-on.

I wouldn't let a fairy flute player touch my bass if I we're you.

Funny ****.

 

[Joe Gress]

You should find that bear and beat him up. And tape it. Seriously.

 

[Wasted Bassist]

I really enjoy how often people on TB lack the social aptitude to recognize jokes. It's kind of cute.

 

[DerHoggz]

I liked the bear and his band better.

 

[deaf pea]

folks, the bear isn't playing the bass note . . . the rabbit's doing it! . . . . . .

 

[pklima]

I'm not actually in that band anymore (they started to tour more than I could handle), so somebody sent them that second video and told them it was "another recording with your old bassist". Heh.

 

[pklima]

I liked the bear and his band better.

Yeah, to be honest me too!

 

[Stan Laurel]

I'll try not to play that note so I don't have to pay royalties!

 

[Red Rover]

Hehe... funny stuff

folks, the bear isn't playing the bass note . . . the rabbit's doing it! . . . . . .

umm... no he isn't. It's the bear.

 

[PunkSweeper]

Is it just me or is that Double Bass in dropped C?

 

[pklima]

The bear's band is every TBers fantasy, actually. You've got a non-singing bassist who is clearly the leader of the band.

Is it just me or is that Double Bass in dropped C?

Not quite dropped C, but the lowest string is indeed a C. It's tuned in fifths... not that it matters in this song!

 

[matt descending]

That fifth tuning is on most of the classic strings. It amounts to drop tuning on every string. Me no likey. Sold off the cello and bought an Ebow. Muy buenoer.

 

[deaf pea]

... no he isn't. It's the bear.

The rabbit is playing what is the "equivalent note" of what pklima's playing in his clip . . .
the bear is playing an "answer" to the rabbit´s bass notes . . . . . .

Can't you HEAR, Red Rover?

 

[pklima]

The rabbit is playing what is the "equivalent note" of what pklima's playing in his clip . . .
the bear is playing an "answer" to the rabbit´s bass notes . . .

Note that the wolf comes in on one, when the bear's note sounds. I'd say the bear is playing the bass note on one, the rabbit's adding an accent on ten (not nine, as I originally wrote by mistake).

CONTROVERSY!

 

[MysterMunky]

sounds like you ripped off michael anthony and slowed down his unique bassline for the intro of running with the devil.....

 

[m_bisson]

Maybe I'm just being cynical, but the cartoon bear was playing one note. If you're upset because your one-note bassline got ripped off by a cartoon, maybe you are too easily offended.

This is posted in the humour section...... durrrrrrr

Note that the wolf comes in on one, when the bear's note sounds. I'd say the bear is playing the bass note on one, the rabbit's adding an accent on nine.

Why do you say that "wolf comes in on one" . . . I think that's a bit "arbitrary" . . .

And I also think that the wolf comes in on beat 3 of the 3rd measure . . . . . .
(the 8 percussive hits at the beginning I see as a one measure pickup to the "composition") . . .

nice talkin' to ya' pklima . . . .

 

[Ubersheist]

Pklima - I just want to know if you and your friends will ever make it out here to the US of A. I really like watching your videos, and the ladies you perform with all seem to be very.... fetching!

When are you going to get over this way?!?!!?

 

[martyman5000]

I thought it was funny...

 

[pklima]

Why do you say that "wolf comes in on one" . . . I think that's a bit "arbitrary" . . .

Heh, I'm not trying to arbitrate, that's my interpretation of where the one falls. It is when the rabbit begins playing, when the bear plays his note, and a tiny bit after the wolf comes in (so the wolf has a pickup note in the previous measure).

Yeah, there's enough going on in that song that it can be analyzed music theory.
