David Bowie said someone in Queen did, John said Bowie, Roger said John (but he was the one to remember it again). Mostly everyone else say it’s John too. Anyone know who actually created that bassline? And if anyone says Vanilla Ice then get off this thread |

Metropolis, re: >Anyone know who actually created that bassline? Brian, I'm sure, will confirm that HE created it. |
Dr Magus 26.09.2019 11:32 |
John said Bowie and Bowie said John. Everyone else said John, not Bowie. Much more likely that John misremembered rather than everyone else who was there. So it was John. |

There was a recent radio interview with Brian, in which Under Pressure was discussed. I haven't been able to find audio of the interview, but there are some quotes listed in this article: link "He recalled a moment soon after John Deacon had come up with the signature bass riff: “I remember David Bowie reaching over to John and saying, ‘No, don’t do it like that,’ and John going, ‘Excuse me? I’m the bass player, right? This is how I do it!’” Brian also refers to that incident between Bowie and Deacon in an article he wrote about Under Pressure, after Bowie's death: link "We all brought stuff to the table, and my contribution was a heavy riff in D which was lurking in my head. But what we got excited about was a riff which Deacy began playing, 6 notes the same, then one note a fourth down. Ding-Ding-Ding Diddle Ing-Ding, you might say. But suddenly hunger took over and we repaired to a local restaurant for food and a fair amount of drink. (Local Vaux wine as drunk in Montreux is a well-kept secret). A couple or three hours later, we’re back in the studio. “What was that riff, you had, Deacy?” says David B. “I was like this”, says John Deacon. “No it wasn’t, says Bowie – it was like this”. This was a funny moment because I can just see DB going over and putting his hand on Johns fretting hand and stopping him. It was also a tense moment because it could have gone either way. Deacy did not take kindly to being told what to do, especially by physical interferences while he was playing! But he was good natured, and it all went ahead.Then we began playing around – using the riff as a starting point." At some point after returning to the studio, Roger says he had to remind John about the riff, as he'd forgotten it. Whether he did so before or after the tense moment between Bowie and Deacon, I don't know. But either way, even if he needed to be reminded of it, everyone credits John with the bassline. |

I'm pretty sure they'd have had the tape running when they were jamming around before dinner so a quick check of the tape. We know they did put other things down on tape so I think the story has a good chunk of apocryphary attached to it. However, it's funny so that's good enough for me. |
Bo Alex 26.09.2019 18:43 |
That bass line came from the bass player, whose name is John Deacon. |
mooghead 26.09.2019 18:48 |
One of them just needs to step up and say 'I thought of that, it was definitely me, all the others have misremembered', then the next day instead of them saying someone else thought of it they will all claim it was them and we will still be none the wiser.... |

** EDIT ** Sorry, the story below is about Anothe One Bites The Dust, not UP! Sorry for the mess :) ** EDIT ** Nile Rodgers said John Deacon got it from a session with Chic: "...One year to the day [after Good Times reached the top], the number one hit was Another One Bites the Dust by Queen and it sounded not like My Sharona but like Good Times! It was clearly an homage, not to mention that [Queen bassist] John Deacon was with me in the studio when I wrote the damn thing! But then, as Verdi said(5), "Good composers borrow, great composers steal..." Source: link Good Times might have been an inspiration, as both are very similar. Cheers, Ogre- |

John Deacon was the clever guy behind the bass line for "Under Pressure" Who else would think of a great bass line like that when they do not play bass apart from John. |
dysan 27.09.2019 12:06 |
eh |
Sebastian 27.09.2019 21:06 |
There's a difference between the bass-line and the bass-riff. I tend to side with John on this one: after all, he was the one who played it, he probably knew who came up with it. Moreover, John's quotes come from 1982 and 1984, respectively, IIRC, back when the song was quite fresh in his mind. Roger's and Brian's quotes come from three or so decades after the fact. |
FMBMJDRT 27.09.2019 21:43 |
I have a feeling John may have distanced himself from it for three possible reasons 1) due to the alleged drug taking whilst the song was being made and Bowie's overall controversial reputation at that time of his career, 2) he was starting to get very disillusioned / depressed about being in Queen and wanted to play down any success, 3) John's memory was / is very poor due to his depression, boozing and (probable) drug taking. |
Sebastian 27.09.2019 22:41 |
Well, if that's the case, we could also put down Brian's and Roger's memories and say they're bound to fail considering they didn't like those sessions (Brian in particular seemed to have been disappointed with the way the song was ultimately made, and Roger's claimed it's his favourite song but not his favourite record), considering over thirty years have passed and considering there may have been alcohol (in Brian's case) and drugs (in Roger's case) involved too. Brian's also dealt with depression - should we disqualify his claims as well then? |
Katby 27.09.2019 23:57 |
Anything is possible and memories can be very unreliable, but I think it's unlikely that everyone has false memories that give John credit for the riff. My personal opinion is that John played the riff originally, but because of the exchange with Bowie, he either falsely remembered it as Bowie's riff. Or, John's memory was perfect but because of a change made to the riff by Bowie - John didn't consider it his anymore. Maybe John played the Vanilla Ice version, originally. However, I think Dysan made a good point, about having the tape running while they were jamming. Maybe there's audio that answers everything. |

Sebastian wrote:As I said, memories can be very unreliable. However, we're not just talking about a general shared memory like, "Oh yeah, John wrote the riff." Roger has a specific memory of John forgetting the riff, and Brian has a separate, specific memory of Bowie talking to John about it, etc. I think my best bet is to assume that the majority of people in the room, have at least somewhat accurate memories - but you're free to think differently, of course.Katby wrote: I think it's unlikely that everyone has false memories that give John credit for the riff.In fact that's very easy to happen: person A is influenced by person B, person C thinks that's gotta be the case since both A and B agree on it, etc. If they were all drinking and taking drugs, it's possible that their memories are all totally wrong - including John's. Maybe Brian and Roger hallucinated the entire situation, while Freddie and Bowie were singing the bass riff during some improvisation. Maybe John was unconscious in the corner with Mack at the time. It's all possible. |
dysan 28.09.2019 08:51 |
'Bowie's overall controversial reputation at that time of his career' He'd just had his biggest hit album in about 4 years and was curating a good family entertainer vibe via appearances on The BIng Crosby Show, narrating a children's book and starred in a very well respected off Broadway play culminating in becoming a genuine global superstar in 1983 |

You've re written it which kind f makes more sense and I agree, in part. However John wasn't the only person in Queen capable of playing and writing Bass lines and he wasn't always the person playing on some songs, although he was on this song. |

@Vocal Harmony As Freddie explained when they are in the studio they tend to compose songs form there instruments so Fred composes from the piano, Brian from lead guitar and John from a bass perspective and Roger from the drums! So John was responsible for the bass line on "Under Pressure" but they all went out to lunch and Deacy forgot the bass riff until Roger reminded Deacy how it went! |

No dispute there. You're wrong about about who and how they wrote and from which instrument. Please explain how Roger wrote melodies on his brum kit. . . It's a well known fact Roger is multi instrumentalist who wrote most of his songs using a guitar. Brian is a capable pianist and wrote on piano as well as guitar. Likewise John could play a few chords on a keyboard and was a proficient guitar player so wasn't stuck playing root notes on a Bass when he was writing. . Freddie wrote on piano but could also play guitar and used it to write occasionally ( CLTCL ). So as a band their working methods weren't as you described. |

I rent a side art studio in an attempt to get away from the noise, but alas it's far away. :*(. Unpacking my stuff would be unwise, So i don't do it. So i can empathize. At least until the housing market/rent goes down in los Angeles (*which it almost undoubtedly will not) Just not sure it's a fair criticism; contemptuous asshole or not. |

Oh and John probably came up with it. Jammed it. It felt great....then he went to something else and they all were asking "how'd that bit go?" While Roger shagged some broad ...calls were made Let's do lunch. Good good! They came back and Roger remembered it. After drinks, the story became a bit of a mess. That's my take. |

I still do, but in your eyes that marks m out as a target for your abuse your derogatory comments and lies. You've claimed I am a member of some German fan club, I'm not, in another threed because it suits you you've claimed I'm American ( nothing wrong with being American but you seem to think there is) and now you've acused me of calling anyone who doesn't agree with me a Nazi. I haven't . On the Nazi subject. What I did was ask you if you were either an ex East German Communist or in a minoroty of German Nazi's because your type of hate you keep posting directed at a targeted group of people reminds me of the type of literature published by both political extremes. I asked a question and gave you a valid reason for it, giving you a chance to reply, I in no way said you were one or the other and I in no way claimed that to be the case which is what you do with your vile posts constantly.K770i wrote: @Vocal Harmony We down sized into a smaller property and to be honest i have kept a lot of Queen stuff in one of the bedrooms but mainly the important stuff like Dvd and Cds. All books, posters, etc.. are stored away. Everyone is different what they do with there collections, so just because mine is stored away does not make me a less of a Queen fan than you, in fact i am probably a bigger fan than yourself. I had the press at my home years ago doing a feature on my Queen collection.VH is a Lamebird freak who doesnt want to come across as such as he/she/it is too embarrassed (which i can understand). He/she/it is member of the German Fanclub who have the order that there is no negativity allowed when it comes to Lamebird. I still have the mail from their admin who said exactly that. I am not sure why he/she/it is discussing Queen on here as he/she/it is utterly clueless when it comes to Queen history. He is passive agressive and calls anyone a "nazi" who is not on his side (see QAL threads). Ignore him. I am sure his Queen collection is "GH 1-3" |

I think we need a separate thread in the PERSONAL section for personal insults. It'd be fair, and it's own controlled chaos. But things that get off topic are pretty absurd. Some have different opinions, some think Lambert is a graceful ROCK God, others (ahem) realize he isn't and don't. However, the personal attacks derail any "conversation"....and being that people's OPINIONS are extremely subjective, It's faulty reasoning to assume someone would change their mind over argumentative trends. Just voice your criticism and leave the cunt calling jizz swilling tart calling to another thread. Criticism is fair, But personal attempts to jump around any assessment and turns it all into bickering. Just an opinion. Still, for a forum without much moderation - I'm at least grateful people still post. Gives it a purpose! |

I agree, with that but some people do take it too far bullying to cause a storm like Vocal Harmony, She deliberately shit stirs to get people on her side and de-rails the thread with fighting and slagging folk off but call her a cunt is justified in this instant because she is. Just for once she needs to look in the mirror and say to herself i have a problem its not them its me ! |

“I agree that we shouldn’t insult each other”, they said. “Yes we should have a separate thread for this”, they said. And here we still are, on a thread that was meant to be a serious discussion on UP, watching these two go at each other. |

Listen you lot Vocal Harmony is a girl and she deserves what she gets as she dishes the shite out to others on here. Don't defend her because she is no innocent. I treat others like they treat me and with Vocal Harmony it is utter contempt. |
