one of the toughest and coolest bass lines ever. ABC's first album has some of the most underated bass parts of all time. from start to finish. good job shelby

very clever and you make it look very easy ,my dad used to play bass

Phenominal finger work!

Unbelievable playing! Wowwwwwwww

You crushed this!! So so good on those tricky ghost notes and your tone is also surprisingly close to John Taylor's from that era. Also extra points for making it look easy!!

You chose this song well. I still don't know if the bassist is Mark Lickley, and why he left the band early and where he went after that.

Keep going! And do Valentine's Day while you're at it...

Loved this so much had to watch it twice! More ABC, please!

the power of emotion, great LoversBass!

Was this played by Tim or William Drake?

Your a good bassist but I don't understand why you gave up your channel. I'd like to see more if your feel like making more videos.

Awesome! Perfectly played. Totally nailed the tone too!

Is this a short scale bass? Great playing. One of ABC’s best

Really beautiful job. It was a joy to listen to! 😌🙏

Incredible talent! Thanks for doing this song!

No idea how someone as young as you knows this song, but I love it!! one of my favorite songs on an awesome album!

Funky!

What's that?

Incredible, cheers

Oh man. This is nice. Thank you.

Thank you! This is a treasure and such an important part of Cardiacs history.

Another level.

Absolutely superb playing

Brilliant ! If Martin Fry is searching for a New bass player for the futur US tour..😊, we never know..

Wait. You can sing too? What a talent you are.

Amazing. Watching you play that is like watching someone perform actual magic. So cool. I'm seeing ABC in concert here in Cleveland in a few weeks and your video is getting me hyped for it. Also, how does someone your age even know ABC songs?

More ABC songs 🙏

How are the drums playing as well? Fake

bass goddess!!!

This is sexy, she is so talented

Nicely done. What bass is that please?

Thank you for this

Great playing young player

Peak fretless was 1979 to early 1980's. For me it was the group 'Japan'. Mick Karn on fretless base stood out.

Try some Mick Karn

That mellotron inner working footage was brilliant, thank you.

Excellent, love that bass sound, quite unique attack, are you using any effects?

Sheesh

Holy sh.. it's a fretless. Love it.

Awesome❤

The first few bars are pure Mick Karn. The master of the fretless. But I'm sure it's Mark Lickley on Bass on the Lexicon album. Anyway, ,,, you nailed it. Top stuff.

What is the make and model of your Bass?

Wow insanely good!!!!! Must be most complicated bass ever!!!! Great opener to lexicon, still sounds fresh after all these years

Ferk yeh funkin AwEsOmE.xxx

Fretless FFS. I have enough trouble getting my toothbrush in the right hole first thing in the morning. Total respect.

Will you play at my funeral? Epic cover

bravissima!
