[zealberg]

great!

wish i could do it!

[ThatNolanKid]

Sounds good, anyone ever tell you that you look like pinske from salute your shorts?

[jberryman17]

I'm kind of in love. You're awesome. :)

[JazzLover747]

omg that was AMAZING!!!

[dustbowel20]

bass, very fine



[dustbowel20]

good



[isleoforkney]

like the bass line, did you invent it?

[zeverus22]

@isleoforkney it's the original bass line of the song

[isleoforkney]

@zeverus22 oh I hadn't realised, are you sure?

[zeverus22]

@isleoforkney yeah i'm pretty sure, well... maybe he modified it a little bit... but not too much :D

[tolinfitz]

@zeverus22 I played it pretty much as it is in the original tune, may have a few minor differences because I figured it out by ear

[zeverus22]

@tolinfitz yeah, i was pretty sure about that, thanks for sharing this great cover!!

[isleoforkney]

@zeverus22 Yeh I know, but the bass line I'm sure I know it, is it from a film or a song? I'm sure I know it!

[zeverus22]

@isleoforkney the bass line its originally from this song, but will smith made a "version" of this song for men in black! :D

[isleoforkney]

@zeverus22 You lost me now! this is confusing, I'm sure I remember this song from 1982, and this is my favourite bass line of all time ; )

[zeverus22]

@isleoforkney haha well, this song is called "forget me nots" it's from 1982 by patrice rushen.

then, in 1997 will smith made a "version" of this song for the movie but this version was called "men in black"

this video is a bass cover of the original version (the one from 1982). :D

[isleoforkney]

@zeverus22 Yeh I know all this, my original comment was meant as a joke, but thanks for explaining!

[isleoforkney]

right there in the groove!

[jessiib12]

2:26 is just plain AWESOME...great skills, but I like that you're digging it as you play it, keep it up!..and to the fella that said they don't write bass lines today as they did decades ago..true :(

[fuckliao]

hahah nice. made my day

[sprintbass]

very good job...

im 37 and i was very young but i remeber this song being out..i got into bass in 1985 and here it is 2010 and im still playing...it would be interesting to hear it done in stereo with more bass but i understand its youtube... You have a very crisp style a no nonsense way about it..the thing with a song like this is hitting the notes are easy but there is a technique to it all and that part cant be difficult..im going to follow your playing, very nice to hear you.

damian

[urur720]

@transgirlnz for reals?!?! i dont know why people always say that!! "how do you get to hear music like this from the 80s" music is music, im only 13 and i listen to jazz and oldschool. its like asking my 80 year old grandma, how did you get to hear about justin bieber??" smh.....

[ArcangeI]

[TLHize]

It"s cool to see that Forget Me Nots is also appreciated for the bass arrangements it has spanned over the waters of time

[youtoo12306]

AWESOME Job dude!!

[mrbassman25]

cake- i will survive... now thats one funky ass bassline to cover ;)

[Tracey9926]

You got rythm baby boy! Tracey Rich.

[macetenchu]

I didn't realize how funky that bass line was! This song comes off so smooth but the bass line is just low key funky. Great job!

[theSNORE1]

pretty good man

[gmarvelous7]

Tolinfitz, you are really doing your thing here! Great job!

[piloteaire]

EXCELLENT PLAYING, Dude!

[MissKi85]

Great job :)

[tonyomanila]

oh man that's good! anyone from those days will have a flashback!!!! keep on playing bro! you trip well on bass!

[THEKTMMAN625]

It's great to see young kids enjoying the music my generation used to boogie to....

And lets face it, they dont write bass lines nowdays like they did on those old 70s/80s soul and funk tunes.........

[isleoforkney]

@THEKTMMAN625 ah boo hoo

[shoansnoday]

I know you already covered this..and the first one didn't have the emotion that this one has. I mean that internal feeling you get when you play this and it is expressed through the instrument. you know what i'm saying, i don't have to tell you. this one is better.

[xochrisox]

oh man that was so tight! good job bro

[fabibass]

great playing !!

[Perellio88]

Mate this is so good!! I can sort of play it ill have a look at this to learn it ur good! How long have you been playing for? Have you looked into the full length version of the song stomp by brothers johnson? Thats god a wicked slap solo in it i want to see if you can do that... unless you havnt already done it!

Like what your playing keep it up get a band going and bring back the funk! the music these days needs it!

[tutulick]

I wouldn't ditch Neal Schon for you( i know...i know...)but because of you and this vid, now I have to summon much love for bass players,too.

Will you please do "I Can't Go For That"?

[tolinfitz]

What do you think about journeys new singer? Pretty damn good. haha I'll check that song out :] thanks for the comment and suggestion.

[albahackvideo]

Definitely this is the best bass cover of Forget me nots, your playing is perfect and the sound is funking funky. Keep funkin around brother. Waiting some new Jamiroquai stuff from you. For example Mr. Moon

[RTBM]

from all of the guys if seen covering this song i must say you got the best feeling and sound, then again it think you are a reeeel disco bassist ain't ya haha!! greets

[tolinfitz]

Thanks a lot! I love funk basslines, and disco has some funky bass in it. I wish there were more bands that had funky bassists nowadays.

[HowieMistress]

A++++ AMAZING! You perfected one of my favortie songs! Forget the haters and keep up the outstanding work!! :D

[tolinfitz]

Thanks so much :] Will do. I'm glad you liked it.

[almadraba]

[womanlybassplayer]

Hey Tolinfitz, check out funkstar 650 on this tune. I think you will dig it. I'm going to check out your myspace and find out where you are giggin in the OC or LA area. You are very talented!

[womanlybassplayer]

I'm impressed with a young guy playing this old urban classic! I can tell you have grown on this version. You are more in the pocket and feeling the groove. Remember the "One" and make it dance. By the way, I'm old school and have met Patrice as well as hung out with Verdine White (EW&F), taken lessons from Louis Johnson (Bro Johnson's) and played with Howard Hewitt from Shalamar.

[shanteharoun1979]

awesome job love your little fill in's make it yours! thanks for the video

[roswel42]

nice bass line

ur bass has an awesome tone

wat type of bass is that??(ibanez?)

[wallpaperkilla]

looks fun to play. and i think you and i are the only young white guys that like this song..haha. good going man, i'll remember you

[Sublimation99]

Mothafucker you fuckin rule, you're in a famous group, no?

[PortlanddjMissionA]

Very Smooth. Sweet and crisp. Plus you add you personal touch. Another Classic. You taste in music. I spend this tune. I like it when you break it down.!

at all my events.

Keep them coming.

[wallpaperkilla]

what? the fuck?

[tolinfitz]

hahaha

[AnnaNeemus]

You kick @ss.
