Catchiest Basslines Ever

This list isn’t about the hardest, simplest or best basslines. It’s about the most catchy ones.
Anyways, feel free to add and comment.

The Top Ten

1 Another One Bites the Dust - Queen

It really gets you into the song. John Deacon is a legend.

2 Schism - Tool

Justin Chancellor is a genius. This bassline is stucked in my head for weeks.

3 Aeroplane - Red Hot Chili Peppers

Especially the slapping part in the verses.

4 Billie Jean - Michael Jackson

Michael Jackson admitted to lifting the bassline from 'I Can't Go for That (No Can Do)' by Daryl Hall & John Oats. Well, it is from that song.

Yes! Quincy Jones said it was a rip-off of a song from Donna Summers though... I don't hear it to be honest.

5 Hysteria - Muse

6 Come as You Are - Nirvana

7 Jerry Was a Racecar Driver - Primus
