Chris Squire “Heart of the Sunrise” had to be on this list but it’s not.

25 or 6 to 4 - the bass line makes that song.

No mention of “My City is Gone” by the Pretenders? The one bass line that 99% of Freepers know very well?

Several basslines that made the list were heavily influenced by other basslines on the list:

Another One Bites the Dust --> Good Times
Give It Away --> Come Together
Hit Me With Your Rhythm Stick --> Come On, Come Over.

I know with lists like this some worthy entries inevitably get left off, but it would've been nice if it included Pump It Up by Elvis Costello, with Bruce Thomas on bass.

We all know about opinions but, for me, there’s Jack Bruce and then there’s everybody else.

I guess one could reasonably argue that there were several as good, but none were better than Jack Bruce
