KoЯn - Got the Life (bass cover)

[duhbeatman]

play it right don't be so cocky about your playing, you suck compared to me

[Germish25]

is that the live version from CBGBS? fucking awsem!

[MetalZilla54]

fake and gay

[Netoenot]

kill yourself

[rhcprxbandits]

The only thing the bassist from korn has to his playing is the rattling noise which appeals to white trash. If he played the same note throughout the song you wouldn't be able to tell the difference

[ovalman24]

@rhcprxbandits it really depends on the song you listen to he doesnt slap on all their songs

[directortb1]

Shit cover, the live track has a higher distorted level of bass so it makes your bass sound similar, your not even playing the official tab so i havent a fucking clue what you are playing, plus you are playing it totally wrong, you are slapping the top string although your fingers are on different string so i dont see how that would work at all, and also to whoever reads this he is not using a Fieldy Signature Bass so dont be so fucking stupid, it isnt even an ibanez so how can it be his? :')

[udupczak9]

Good job !!! Can you learn me ;>?

[thermomalous]

You're doing it wrong.. in multiple ways

[culverandhardy626]

u like tenacious d and korn. cool

[SquintyEyedBoab]

I thinkl he's good but he looks so stiff and uncomfortable whilst moving, loosen up, dude!

[camybratt]

im with you i can hear it to, but remember bud aint rich he dont have the sam settings and equptimen as fieldly cut him some slak fuck, lets see some of you guys do better.

[EvilSoul616]

i love how everybody still thinks thats fieldy's signature bass, Its obviously a schecter stiletto 5-string bass.

fieldy uses ibanez SR models you retards

[ogpdub]

Honestly, am I the only one that can hear that, behind the live music, he's shit?

[directortb1]

@ogpdub so true.. all these fucking idiots are brown-nosing him for stupid reasons..

[noodlegraphics]

@ogpdub buy headphones ...

[johnjairoangarita]

ur slap sucks! is the true :S

[DeadlyDProduction]

Why do you play it so low down like Fieldy? You need to get your own style.

[443556inflames]

@DeadlyDProduction Maybe he plays it-heaven forbid-because it's more comfortable for the song.

As a bassist myself, I know a lot of korn comes out better with the bass like that. And hell, even if he WERE doing it for style, it's a minority of people that play like that. What the fuck are you looking for? Someone to play it while doing a handstand, just so people like you think he's being original?

[DeadlyDProduction]

@443556inflames Ok bro, I play bass also, so don't go thinking your the only bassist here. GTFO here and stop being a fag.

[443556inflames]

@DeadlyDProduction I think someone's getting moody because they've been shown up ;)

[guitarrhythymfool]

@DeadlyDProduction Stop being so uptight.

Playing with the bass that low isn't just a Fieldy thing. It's a rock/metal bass thing. Look at bassists like Dale Stewart (Seether), eVil J (formerly of Otep), Robert Trujillo (Ozzy, BLS, Metallica). They all wear their bass really low down. Is it good for correct technique? No, not really. But is it just copying Fieldy? Not in the slightest.

[billyunknown]

but the one you used?

[billyunknown]

hey man , i just wanna ask you what bass effect did fieldy used? equalizer or syntetizer?

by the way you rock man, you should play with fieldy

[treshun95]

@billyunknown synthethizer fuzz pedal

[slipKnot1locust]

good job, a council, the intro riff carries a "PLUCK", and use your fingernails :D

[SuperKawka123]

fuck slaping

i hate those but not bad

[xdisfiguredx]

not bad man

[misteobrazovka]

i love that how your hand fly with the strings :)

[EvilSoul616]

i dont think its a K5, the body structure and head look more of a Schecter stiletto design

[CLC0698]

You got talent bro.

[Serdrains]

OOOHHHH SHHIIIT! What was that at 1:01 ????? whooohooo!

btw is that Ibanez k-5 ?

(we wanna HD)!!!

[IChiiSSiiIx]

Never seen any1 done the 1:00 transition except for Fieldy o.o ...

<3

<3

<3



[IChiiSSiiIx]

Holy shit!

Perfect tuned<3

[sauronauk]

Ok. If I knew you in real life, we'd be great friends. Korn, I see Tenacious D i the back ground, you play bass. You, sir, are one awesome guy. Although I'd kill you for the bass. Just saying. Keep rocking, and have fun.

[superstylin4]

keep rocking bro 

[Dreadlockyx]

You must be his son or something like this.

[wuzzl1991]

nice cover man

[SoulCalibrator]

god DAMN, that was some awesome playin' in the beginning

[443556inflames]

It's a breath of fresh air to see another bassist play with freedom. What anyone that slags this video off doesn't understand is that being a good bassist does NOT involve sitting in front of your pc all day watching Fieldy do it and copying him move for move. The kid has feeling, and that's more than most institutionalised trolls have-because, especially with guitars, 'feeling' seems to be about finding that oh so cliched effect and being able to use the tremelo. Get balls, bitches.

[TLSxAJL]

badass bro

[mechanicalr]

Why are all of you so hard on this kid? He's not doing a bad job at all. Better then alot of the other bass players here on Youtube. If you all are going to bad mouth then leave a video response. Put up or shut up you assholes.

[EanGATArules]

Your bed reminds me of andy's from toy story

[MudShadow742]

And his bass is a schecter elite 5 string bass. Dimond series. I have the same bas just in 4 string model

[MudShadow742]

Not one of you people know anything about korn. Fieldy uses a 5 string which is what hes using. Fieldly slaps very similar to the way he is. His bass sounds almost identical to fieldys. This is acually a very good cover

[jadtulua]

I didn´t know "slapping" was about hitting your bass strings like you were an UNCOORDINATED PSHYCO!!!

[MudShadow742]

@jadtulua IF you knew anything about korn you would know fieldy plays his bass very similar to the way he playing it. His cover is acually very good of the song

[FOBIdontCare12345]

this is great and btw where did u get the bass at it is sic

[Proggish]

Wow this is pathetic. Does anyone here actually KNOW anything about bass? Any 6 year old with a tire iron on steel cable can make this racket. For fucks sake, if you wanna learn bass learn something DECENT. Start with something simp-- OH WAIT you got that covered. Now go learn to play real music. Please.

[blueplane1]

ur a master

[Baxtab13]

Sorry but I'm not sure if I'm hearing your bass or not. I'm pretty sure I'm only hearing the music in the background. (Korn live at CBGB'S)

[Kittyman92]

Tenacious D

[senadeo13]

your gonna fuck up your wrist slapping like that bro. Learn to do more than one form of slap. pretty good tho

[hyperphoenix11]

thank u for slapping the strings.....not that hard

[liFERNO]

lol realy clown :D

[SilverFrosting]

he holds it upright so he can finger pick when he slaps its pretty obvious

[parkourfreak27]

how come you hold your bass upright so much?

[Conbryvas]

@parkourfreak27 because thats how fieldy usually holds it.

[revolution28021989]

@1:00 0_0 wth?

[phaantje]

@revolution28021989

looks really nice :D

[xamkriegor]

de q vas? me insultas intentando emular a fieldy

[Mokyyy1]

1. You need 5 string bass to play KoRn

2. You got the bad guitar for slap

3. You do not now how to slap - that what you play is bad imitation of slapping!

That`s what i think and i think i am in right!

[InternalxMassacre]

@Mokyyy1 It is a 5 string lol plus you dont really need a 5 string. Just like i can play Korn songs on a 6 string guitar rather than a 7 string

[EvenHummROCKS]

@Mokyyy1 There is no real way to play the bass, everbody has their technique and style

[cameronj279]

@Mokyyy1 he is using a 5 string and everybody has a style of their own.

[ThePGeist]

@Mokyyy1

1. He has a 5 string

2. Yes that is true :P

3. yes that is true aswell. :P

[555EnterNameHere666]

@Mokyyy1 honestly u only need a 2-3 string bass for Korn song :D:D...

[Mokyyy1]

@555EnterNameHere666 ok i did not see it is a 5 string bass (my bad) but in some songs you need all 5 strings.

[Slipknotfan168]

@Mokyyy1 wow your a dick, hey by definition, if you believe something is true then it is an opinion, so keep bad opinions to your self...

[rikkitimbo]

@Mokyyy1 1. his bass is 5 strings

2. its the fucking fieldy signature bass .....bad for slapping? hmmm

3. probably better than you bro

i think your wrong!

[Ghosthawk]

@rikkitimbo About No2. I own a K5, its actually my main bass and i have to tell you that is not covinient at all when you wonna play funky style slap and pop or any other kind of fast slap and pop. For plain slap, is ok though.

[blackmetaljuggalo67]

@rikkitimbo your right this kid is good ive played for five years nd i cant slapp this fast

[PooPoo2U]

@rikkitimbo: actually, you'd be wrong too, that's definitely not a k5, or even an ibanez for that matter. looks like a schecter stiletto.

[superstylin4]

@rikkitimbo its not a k5 its a sr which the k5 is based on

[xBamf4Lifex]

@rikkitimbo its not the k5

[sparksguitar]

@Mokyyy1 hes using a 5 string 

[mackatash]

@Mokyyy1 that comment was a mistake on ur part man -_-

[Brazilianjj]

@Mokyyy1 1. Your an idiot cause it is a 5 string.

2. Thats almost the same guitar that Fieldy uses, its great for slapping so again your an idiot.. and

3. He is slapping just fine, lets see you post a video doing better.. Just shut your ignorant mouth.

[dirtty420boy]

@Mokyyy1 everyone is right it is a 5 string, i dont think there are really any basses that are bad for slap just the player. and i cant say i disagree but neither agree. yes hes not slapping the traditional way and fieldys slap is very simple. but we dont know if he does or does not know how to slap like say flea. but he does a damn good job at korn covers.

[bisexualmunky]

@Mokyyy1 and you do not know what your talking about.

[guitarrhythymfool]

@Mokyyy1

1. You don't NEED a 5-sring, I play KoRn covers with a detuned 4-string all the time. That being said, that IS a 5-string bass.

2. That's Fieldy's sig bass. It's just fine for slapping.

3. That's how Fieldy slaps. It may not be technically correct slap bass, but it's how Fieldy slaps.

Your opinions are not fact, they are opinions. Now go away.

[shootsandladdersk5k7]

People should just leave this song alone. No one can play it right....at all. He played all of the riffs wrong

[xxcannibalxchristian]

@shootsandladdersk5k7 so true man

[nyclaybreaker]

yea...keep your fingers stiff, but you have to snap the joint where the finger meets the hand, and snap at your wrist, youll get a better pop....also invest in an effect pedal...your not getting the same KoRn Popping noise...

[blasteurdu59]

Is faste !!!

Are you human ? ;)

[KoRn0Graphy2010]

So.. u dont really need talent 2 play that kind of bass?

[Roqy96]

@KoRn0Graphy2010 as long as ur making the instrument make a sound then u rly dont need talent

[zacmaan26]

eny one notic that the music starts b4 he dose?

and when it dose start he jumps into it fast abit like lypsnc :S

[JJHoser]

one this is an awesome cover, two how did you get the backwards R in the name for the video?

[rcullan]

good cover man. Very nice attention to details like the scrapes on the strings. You got skills

[Toz4wa]

Awesome dude ;] Keep doing that shit ;]

[zajohnny]

why the fuck did  Nicklinkinpark2 get a thumbs down i hate it when people give thumbs down to nice people.

[Nicklinkinpark2]

whoa.

I randomly started watching this video, and I just see my username on the most recent comment.

lol, thats awesome.

[strat41lee]

this sounds like crap, learn to slap

[hottaco11]

fuckin amazing bass playing man!

[Gorrilaz45]

at first i thought this was sped up but you're just really good at slapping

[KoRn0Graphy2010]

i fucking hate when weak ass 13 year olds leave a comment saying "epic"

-_- i hate it.. idc thumb me down.. idc

[Gorrilaz45]

@KoRn0Graphy2010 im 13 but that pisses me off so bad

[1970metalfan]

@KoRn0Graphy2010 its for the tards man for the tards

[Slipknotfan168]

@KoRn0Graphy2010 I know right, try that shit with MW2

[shakyobuta]

@KoRn0Graphy2010 I love how you say thumb me down, and instead you get voted up

[himselffd]

@KoRn0Graphy2010 wow your lame rlly its just a saying and really this video has nothing to do with that you retard

[enjoiventure]

@KoRn0Graphy2010 i will thumg u up

[roarkld]

Nice, I liked the string scratch after the intro, nice touch

[adbarboherre]

Nice job dude... but I think you should use less volumen in the music sound so we hear the bass better

[covenant123dx]

epic

[cristian2001]

i think you should use a lowerr tune to sound like fieldy amazing job

[Nicklinkinpark2]

thats so hard to do, good job

5/5

[bigmudge54]

dude that was great thats hard to do slapping the strings good cover and im diggin the bass that a schecter right but great vid p.s. KoRn is the greatest band ever

[AnthonyhNo3]

Good cover. Just some advice, if you dont keep your bass pointed up so much and keep your thumb straight and sideways while you slap, its supposed to be better form. Also, he uses some kind of muted flick technique in this song too. Those are just some things to look into. Other than that it was pretty good.

[ruaridouglas]

Whats with all the hate mail, good cover dude! Keep it up!

[thesoilflake]

i think this video's FAKE! ...

[666Edthehead]

i thought so too you just have to listen closely to hear his bass

[MrFilipinjo]

stupid question:do u have to have amplifier 4 the guitar?

[TheQuietPiace]

Just if you want to hear the full extent of the instrument.

[clatronic123456789]

Yeah

[kidharris55]

[KoRnYwAyZ]

Ya need to calm your friggin hand down a bit, make it flow more... your too stiff.

[MushroomDisorder]

Dude,Some of the times when you slap,Fieldy is just playing with the fingers...not slapping...but it got pretty well in the end.

[dethdealer069]

damn only fucked up 3 times. not bad i guess

[xanthegreat1]

[kidharris55]

[motherload55555]
