Locked out of Heaven.

[Highfox]

Bruno Mars, anyone else think it's a great sounding bass line?
Even with headphones on I think I'm driving them indoors nuts playing along to it. Teach them to get my CD's from Crimbo.

I did get thrown out of Heaven in Charring Cross once.

You must of been a bad boy! I had many wild nights there and never got into trouble.
Great place to pick up girls I remember being, having the odds stacked nicely

I was surprised myself. Something to do with African Woodbines.

Bruno is one of the best male artists in current pop if you ask me. Really bringing back some style, a proper band, and a hint of rock. His bassist is great. I've followed him on Instagram and he has some great bass gear.

What surprised me is how simple the bass line is. Just goes to show you don't need to play all the notes all the time.

[steve-bbb]

it is a very classy bass line indeed - figured it out and have been pestering our band like absolute crazy to cover it ...... although im sure the singists will come up with some reason not to

[GarethFlatlands]

[steve-bbb]

Glad to hear its an easy bass line ...I guess I have to hit youtube

Chuuuuuune.

Saw them do this on Graham Norton and was was well impressed. Great moves to boot. Pop is interesting again.

[tredders]

My 12 year old had the new CD for Christmas, and I was playing this track on bass yesterday. One of the few 'artists' she listens to that I actually think is decent!

[mcgraham]

Awesome. You don't even have to like his music to appreciate how slick and professional his band is.
