Singing Bassists

I don't think that can be justified as singing.......

Funky though!

Ha Ha!

Doves' bassist/singer
Kim Deal although she might not want fangirls' attention ...not that there's anything wrong with that

You are also forgetting Kip Winger, or trying to forget

MASTERRRRRRRRRRRRRRR (done in a death growl by there old bassist Jason Newstend) not sure if that counts as singing though.
that dude from Motorhead who sounds terrible (IMO).
If talking backup then i find it hard to go by Chris Wolstenholme from Muse, especially some of the older stuff.

Lemmy from Motorhead who sounds awesome, especially in Hawkwind and the first Motorhead album (IMO)

Nobody mentioned Flea



Not sure if this would help him with the ladies though...

hmmmmmmm....

Im sure SOME chicks would dig it... If all else fails... Im sure a few groupies would put up with him

I was going to say him, but John Lennon was the lead vocals more then him, so i wasn't sure if he counted.

Well he definitely counts now that the rest of them are dead (well, not Ringo, but he's a drummer, so...) while he's still gigging

not exactly,the lead vocals were taken care of by the one who wrote the song ( contrary to popular belief they didn't write songs together or not usually anyway ,so you can tell who wrote the song by checking who's singing lead vocals ) . For example: " Lady madonna " is written by Macca so he sings lead , "lucy in the sky with diamonds" is Lennon, so he sings lead etc.

Other examples of bass players being singers ( or even lead vocals ) are Mark King and Sting .

Yeah, I would say Kyle Greck from Quickfire is a vocalist and bassist XD

I let my bass do the singing. And you can get chicks by playing some good bass. You can. So don't go straining your vocal chords just yet.

I use my pretty face to get girls ;] as my bass playing would scare any one off haha

^^ Pretty faces help

^ damn I'm out of luck then....

awwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwww...

sometimes personality counts. XD

That's me shot on all three counts then

Nah, apparently my personality, while weird, is funny. Funny always helps. And also apparently my bass playing isn't all too bad.

As I understand it (never tried myself), wooing the lady types with a bass is much more difficult than wooing the lady types with a guitar, 'cause with a guitar you can go "LOL I KAN RLY SHRED" much sooner than you can go "SLAPPIDYSLAPPYSLAP" with a bass. That about right?

Eyh! I have a personality! Somewhere... I think I have dropped it or something... Goddamnit, I should tidy my room... Later.
