lonestar Posted August 22, 2009 Author Share Posted August 22, 2009 It's actually a really good bass part, (played brilliantly by Dioon Estus), but I can't get that George Michael/Lady Di hair out of my mind's eye while trying to learn it.

YouMa Posted August 22, 2009 Share Posted August 22, 2009 Wham raps my favourite. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
steve1879 Posted August 22, 2009 Share Posted August 22, 2009 If you can read it, you can find the sheet music if you google it. There's no tabs online so I learnt it from the sheet music. It's a quality line as are most Wham basslines Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

StageAhead Posted September 19, 2013 Share Posted September 19, 2013 Hey, I've done a transcription to this tune in my bass blog earlier this year. I did a little lesson about "[b]The legendary Motown Groove"[/b], especially known from Diana Ross & The Supremes hit "[b]You Can't Hurry Love[/b]" which happened to have a big renaissance during the 80ies in songs like "[b]I'm so excited[/b]" (Pointer Sisters), "[b]Footloose[/b]" (Kenny Loggins) or "[b]Wake me up before you Go Go[/b]" (Wham) and more. The post is unfortunately written in german (I'll have to translate this one day, because it's a really interesting topic), but you can still use the transcription.Have a look: [url="http://four-strings-basslessons.blogspot.de/2013/02/special-request-wake-me-up-before-you.html"]http://four-strings-...before-you.html[/url] Tom Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Particularly She Caught The Katy. I was struggling with the little "lick" at the end of each verse. Nailed it with YouTube vid. Thanks a lot.
