This song made it to #2 on the US Adult Contemporary chart in early 1993. It's pretty clear from the sound of it, the bass track was recorded on a keyboard rather than a bass guitar. But touring band features a bass guitar player though, and it sounds great! [https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=O9CjwE97AsQ](link)

Faithful

When people think of the New Wave/Pop band "Berlin", the songs "Take My Breath Away" and "No More Words" are probably the first two that come to mind. This song did not crack the top 50 when it was released in 1981. It was later released on different labels in 1982 and 1983, when it became the band's first MTV video hit in 1983.

For the bass player, this song is relentless with fast-paced 8th notes throughout the entire song. I started a 1 measure metronome in my earbuds before the song began so I wouldn't miss the first note.

Learned this one for a sub gig last weekend. Released in 1982, this song made it to #3 on the Billboard Hot 100 chart and was played heavily on MTV. The video went on to win a Grammy.
