what is the most famous bassline?AOBTD or UP

i dont know...i've heard under pressure when i was a kid and to me it's the most famous.

Generally, I'd say Another One, but because of that glitch in time when some rip-off-disgrace stole Under Pressure. People who were into rap will recognize that first. This is really hard. That's like asking, which is more famous? We Will Rock You or We Are the Champions? Both comparisons are pretty equal.

Another One Bites The Dust is Queens biggest selling record to date.

I think both are pretty equally recognizable, but Under Pressure may be more known because of Vanilla Ice ripping it off.

Depends on territory.

But I think AOBTD is more popular, though John liked UP.

mmmmmm well imo its bites the dust! its queens biggest seller in the usa 4.5+million i think,
and that fucker vanilla ice wants a good fucking slap for that rip-off bass line, under pressure,

Actually the other day i was watching this current affairs type thing and they had a thing about bass players. They were talking about famous basslines (they only mentioned two i think) and the first one was aobtd. That was good except they showed part of the wyclef jean video so i was quite pissed off about that.

Then the next one they said was "the song that defined a generation" ice ice baby. Quite annoyed that they gave vanilla ice the credit for that one.

I would have been really angry that they showed no footage of queen at all considering they created both of those bass lines but at least they showed John standing behind Freddie while he played the piano in bo rhap as they were talking about the bass players being overshadowed by the lead singers.

Under Pressure

AOBTD - Got them into America

I think Another One Bites The Dust is one of the most famous along with The Invisible Man. Thats a pretty famous bass line.

both songs are pretty equal, imo
remember the Aiwa commercials w/AOBTD?
And tv show promos in US w/UP?


pop goes the weasel 'cos the weasel goes pop

I'd have to say AOBTD

"Vanilla Ice put an extra beat in Ice Ice Baby, so he didn't steal it!" Whoever said that is full of it!

Well it woz a problem because he didn't put Queen & Bowie in the credits, like he should. But it's no problem he sampled it though.

abtd was used in gladiators as well remember so lots of people will remember it from that

both!
