The Millionaire Waltz is an obvious choice. I'd add Sail Away Sweet Sister just for the last 30 seconds of the song.

THE MILLIONAIRE VALTZ AMAZING BASS LINE!
TSMGO in the first part.
One vision Magic Tour during Brian solo before the end!

Hmm, I recently listened to the bass in Love Of My Life, it's really beautiful, very playful. Is it the best bass? I don't know, it's really a matter of opinion. There are some really good basslines, so it's hard to choose.
Oh and just like Wiley, the outro of Sail Away Sweet Sister is really beautiful.

Please don't forget These Are The Days of Our Lives... it's understated but clearly a voice of its own. John is a fucking phenomenal player.
Other nods: You And I, You're My Best Friend, No One But You, ...hell even Pain Is So Close To Pleasure has some odd (and therefore appreciated) melodies.
But,... my all time fave...and one i use for ear tuning to Ab...
Somebody to Love. It's a "busy" line like YMBF, but it's hella awesome. John must have listened to quite a bit of James Jamerson/Stevie Wonder...

Two songs come to mind, since they include delicate bass playing:
Sail Away Sweet Sister (intro and ending) The Show Must Go On (intro)
John was a genius. Simply beautiful.
