** I really like this song. I can strongly remember walking the aisle of the Kroger’s (grocery store) near my house and the song comes on the radio and my dad asks me what the band was and I was able to tell him. This was back when I was in 5th grade. As you can see, my love for rock and metal has only grown. Also, I like winds of change, and The Zoo as well as most of their hits, but this is probably the most popular to people my age.
Band = Scorpions
Year = 1984
Album = Love at First Sting
Bassist = Francis Bucholz from 1973-1992
Looks like he uses a pick
Overall this song is pretty easy. The main riffs are real easy. You can play a simplified version that sounds great pretty easily. Some of the nuances are just hard to hear and don’t add a ton to the song to try to nail every time, but are great to make the song more interesting to play/accurate to the original.
Note for playing live: For The Pre Chorus, Francis has his bass at like 1/2 volume, and then raises it for the chorus. You can see him do this in the live videos (particularly for the first pre chorus and chorus)
The bass is hard to hear the exact rhythm (not unusual)
Newer video, but you can hear the bass rhythm better. I deferred to the vids below this since those have Francis
Even though it’s not the “Scorpions”, it has the original bassist (Francis Bucholz), Michael Schenker, and I think the drummer was previously in the band as well. You can see a lot in this video
1:53 you can see him do in the 2nd chorus’ extension before the solo, the 5-3-5
1:44 you can see Francis doing 8th notes for the 2nd Pre Chorus
Then you can see the chorus just as you’d expect it to be
2:27 whole verse that Francis does as 8ths. You can see his fret positioning too
2:58 – Francis does the 5-3-5 in the chorus. a lot of tabs skip over this. at 3:29 you can see him do it in the solo too
5:30 – Francis does the 7 – 0 0 – 3-3 for the main riff dropping an octave instead of keeping the 7. This confirms what I’m hearing
Thanks for watching! Enjoy

This is a general comment on your easy list-could you make a list for absolute beginners, so much slower, much easier? I found Nirvana's Something in the Way a challenge, and that's four slow notes on two strings. That is an example. Slow easy, and not too much variation in the notes in each song would be a good noob list.
Just about the easiest bass line ive learned so far, and it sounds AWESOME
Just a noob look at this to learning to play
昔、武道館で観た時、この曲やってました。(^_-)-☆
Well don e my friend!
I'm still new to bass, so yeah, this will help me a lot. Thanks for the lesson. Cheers.
Another fine video from this young man! I'm in my 50's and have been learning for bout 7 months. Using this to learn the bass line to this song. Awesome! His Sweet Child O' Mine bass cover is amazing too!
Keep up the good works I'm from the old school I seen them in concert potential a lot of rock bands African-American brother but I love all types of music blues jazz funk country rock and love it all I just ran into you you seem to be having a good time with the old school but the old school is the best compared to the new music I really don't know LOL respectfully I am black dragon the midnight Ghost Rider from Charleston West Virginia
any tab？
Playing n tab are brilliant. I should have subscribed before. Sorted now. ????????
There's so many different bass covers and tabs out there. I've thrown AI separation and Anthemscore at the song and now I find this cover. Out of everything I found, this cover is the real thing! Every single note bang on, there is only one minor difference I found, the very first 0-0-0 at 0:17 is two long 0s, ie drop the second 0 from the triple. I'm 95% sure that's correct. But thank you for this excellent cover. I'm in awe how some people can just listen to songs and get it right. Without technology, I'd never be able to hear the 5-7 at 0:16, for example. This cover even picked up that Francis Buchholz plucked the E string together with the 7 at 3:03. Excellent work. Well done!
nice one Bro!!
thk
I’m old enough to be your grandpa, been playing since 1964 and I have to say, I enjoy the heck out of you. Hearing’s not so good anymore, still playing and learning new things. What you do for me is take the guess work out. Rock on my little brother.
I can't help but smile along with you – thank you so much and keep up the good work my bass brother!
Thanks for your videos!!!!! I'm learning the best rock songs with you bro!!!! saludos desde Argentina!
Thanks Sam
I'm now in a band who are learning this one. This is a great help.
Sounds good too!
Cheers
Steve
Song key?
Rock You Like a Hurricane ????????????????
This guy looks so familiar
Hey Sam, first of all Thanks for all you out here, us beginners really appreciate this, Second- do you have a video for Scorpions Breakout?
Love your channel man cheers from Dublin Ireland ???????? use your tabs all the time bro ????????????????????
Braaaaa.!!!
I happen to like the bass guitar sound.
Great tab and great song! Lots of fun to play, thanks!!
Hey brother. I appreciate you doing this for everyone. I have few suggestions that you might like to tackle. I cant find some of these and the others sound wrong. Anyway. Vinnie Vincent, Boyz are gonna rock. While your doing that you will surely be impressed with Vinnie's guitar. It tells you on the album cover there are no petals or synthensizers on this album, straight guitar. Y&T some have never heard of them. Other dedicated fans such as myself have been listening to them since 82. They have 3 of my favorite albums. Black Tiger, Meanstreak, In Rock We Trust. If you could give it a listen. I'm sure you will follow them after. They have several albums and are still touring today. We drive 500 miles to see them when they get that close. Others we met traveled 900 miles. Dave Meneketti is the lead singer, guitar player and writes most of the songs. Ozzy attempted to recruit Dave on several occasions. That alone should be enough to listen to. Anyway. Thanks again.
Sua interação e alegria tocando foi muito legal!
????????????????????????????
