Bass in If You Wear That Velvet Dress...

[hasin73]

.... is so room-shakingly loud and deep that i love every seconds of this
masterpiece in the POP album. Why is Adam's bass so loud here? Is there
any amplifier used ?

Is there other instances of Adam's bass so vibrant ?

Maybe this was U2's attempt at a "get your girlfriend to sit on the subwoofer" trick.

I've never ever liked the studio version of this song. It really is imo one of the weakest links on the album. Songs 8, 9 and 10 really are some of the bands worst songs sadly.

HOWEVER, they figured it out on Popmart, shortened it and came up with new guitar (edge plays similar to SBS). the live version is definetly a masterpiece!
