Fellow #basslove-rs of the world, unite! Did you know @mccannmusic was the originator of the #basslove hashtag on the Twitter in 2009?
Well, today I thought I’d post 5 of my favorite #basslove songs and take a little poll. I know I’m a little heavy on the Chaser followers, but try to be objective and vote for your true favorite. You’ll notice I included the all-female group Delilah because women can sing bass, too!
1. Club for Five “Brothers in Arms”
2. Delilah “Grenade” #ladynads
3. Duke Pitchforks “Home”
4. Straight No Chaser “You’re a Mean One, Mr. Grinch”
5. Tonic Sol-fa “Highway Patrol”
So, which was your favorite?
Some other current favorites of mine:
- Blue Jupiter “Lil’ Red Riding Hood”
- Duke Pitchforks “Hysteria”
- The Heebee-Jeebees “Mr. Bass Man”
- Naturally 7 – basically anything
- Straight No Chaser “Hi De Ho”
- Straight No Chaser “Live Your Life and Flow with Whatever You Like”
- Take 6 “Spread Love” #bangkbangk
- Vocal Union “Get Ready”
Let everyone know your favorite #basslove songs in the comments!
Voted!! I *did*, in fact, listen to all of them, but the *winner* is easy.
I understand completely. But thanks for at least listening to the options, haha.
SNC basses will always be the best for me. ( yep there is a lot of snc basslove in my heart)But a second place goes to the duke pitchforks. That guy as an amazing voice and lot of soul.
Lieve, you should find the Pitchforks recording of “Hysteria.” HOLY #BASSLOVE BATMAN.
Very cool! Naturally my heart and vote will always be with Tonic Sol-fa. However, there is a whole lotta talent on this page. Wow!
I know, isn’t it fun?!
DAMMIT. You know how much I love SNC, but the PITCHFORKS. That being said, I prefer the CD recording to this live version… /tough choice
Shaina, same here on all counts. I won’t reveal my vote on the grounds that it might incriminate me.
I had such a GREAT time seeing SNC out here. And was really impressed by Grinch. I have #basslove
Awww. A Chaser convert. I’m so happy. =) And it’s true – Grinch live is RIDICULOUS.
