emergency on planet earth
Hooked up
when you're gonna learn (live version)
Alright
Don't give hate a chance (yeah the lyrics are corny, but the session bassist killed this track)
I pretty much like every bassline coming from Jamiroquai . The best ones are on the first three albums though |

Though not the best basslines, but my fav basslines right now are:
1. Scam
2. Runaway
3. Too Young To Die
Did you notice many people don't know there is a bassline - a different melody than Jay singing - in all songs? |

As a bass player myself, I am struggling to accept that this topic has not been discussed before! Jamiroquai (and Mark King of Level 42!) are the reason I picked up a bass! I personally view the bass as a fundamental part of Jamiroquai's music.
Anyway my top basslines (this is very hard and is always subject to alteration!):
1) - Traveling Without Moving (especially live!)
2) - Runaway
3) - Scam
4) - Mr Moon
5) - Too Young to Die
I could go on!
I can play virtually every JMQ bassline although not prefectly note for note! I prefer to learn the basic chords and fills and then play about myself rather then play along note for note!
I wish I was in a band but I just don't have time i'm afraid!
A final point is that based on Paul Turner's playing on Runaway and Radio plus his magnificent performances live since joining the band, I am expecting some killer basslines on the new JMQ stuff  _________________ 'This is the world he wants, pray for the brave and the young...' |

As Jay Kay says in your 2nd video:
"That's the man, that's the man!"
