For a couple of years in high school, I decided to learn how to play bass. It didn't take very long for me to learn that my love for listening to music just wasn't motivating me to work hard on learning how to play bass. Other than tutoring I took from a college student while I was in high school, I mostly just noodled around. There are a few things I can play (such as "Louie, Louie" and "Iron Man"...which should give you an indication of how elementary my bass playing skills are).
While the bass line isn't complex, it seems to impress people when I state I can play bass to Yes's "Owner of a Broken Heart." The "bass solo" at the bridge is easy enough for preschoolers.

And I will maintain control over my urge to also post a video clip of MST3K analyzing the various comparisons inspired by the lyrics from "Owner of a Broken Heart." OK, here's a link: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=D5OzF-ZT6QI
