Product placement for black eyed peas i gotta feeling
While its melody easily translates to a simple framework, “Sail” never fails to highlight the natural beauty of low notes. Is there anything you will never like in this music? There are thundering trombones and poppy trumpets, too. And if you add the drums, tambourines, and piano that blends in harmony with the whimsical hand claps, you know that this song is a very inviting piece. The throbbing bass is both fresh and eclectic. I find the tune very catchy and quite addictive, but in a good way. The vigor of the bass is a wonderful complement to the energetic lyrics of the song. It can reel you using only its pounding and feisty bass. The song also got a nomination at the Grammy in 2014.īuoyant and upbeat, Macklemore and Lewis’ masterpiece can captivate its audience like some David Copperfield show. It also landed the top spot on the Billboard Hot 100. Spotify named it its most-streamed song in 2013. While it did take time to take off, it skyrocketed the charts once it did. Most music industry insiders consider “Can’t Hold Us” as a sleeper hit. You’ve got to love “Can’t Hold Us” from Macklemore and Ryan Lewis. The song sold more than 10 million copies that very few singles can match today. It is a Billboard Hot 100 hit and is one of the world’s best selling singles in the history of music. I can’t say that this song is my absolute favorite. The understated overall tone provides a great contrast to the emotional wails of the King of Pop. It starts with a smooth line that builds as it moves forward. Louis Johnson did an excellent job in counterpointing the synth wash and subtle backing vocals.
The notes of the bass guitar are very predictable in providing a characteristic rhythm. If “Another One Bites the Dust” showcased Deacon’s bass prowess, “Billie Jean” blends the bass-producing capabilities of the bass drum and guitar. The song is a perfect blend of dance pop, funk, rhythm and blues, and post-disco. It has a very familiar beat that will have you tapping the edge of your seat or beating a pair of chopsticks on the table. This is another great hit with great bass. Roger’s drum is also muted and Brian has taken a backseat, except for occasional electrifying riffs. The center of attention is Deakey’s bass. Why do I consider it the all-time best? Well, if you compare it with today’s punchy songs, “Another One Bites the Dust” is as suave as a fine aged whiskey. Just feel the vibe of Deakey’s powerful bass and you’ll know this is one of the greatest bass songs there is. You don’t even have to sing Freddie’s lines. Billboard ranks it Number 34 on its All-Time Top Songs.Īnd if you’ve ever been to any sporting event, you know that they always play this song, alluding to the defeated opponent. It is the band’s best-selling single, selling more than 7 million copies. True enough, the song has been one of Queen’s most defining works. Even before the band finished the riff, Michael was already on his feet persuading – begging – the group to release the song as a single and not as a piece for their 8 th studio album. When the band performed the music with Michael Jackson listening, they saw the King of Pop bobbing his head like some dance-crazed teen enjoying the beat on the dance floor.
And while Roger did a drum loop, it was Deacon’s powerful and soul-reaching groove that Freddie was so ecstatic about. Of course, you’ve got to give credit to Freddie’s superlative vocals. While the rest of the Queen did have substantial input into the development of the song, it was Deacon’s fascination for soul music that jump-started it all. You wouldn’t believe the inspiration for John Deacon’s “Another One Bites the Dust”.
