I think Bee-Bee's Song is more a question of who's playing the bass...

Alright, fuck you all. Let's start over and this time I'll explain. Or I could edit my first post and make you all look stupid.

K, apologies! The question is -- what instrument does Kim play on each of these tracks? With no live performances of either to offer evidence, my ears still can't make a conclusive decision. Maybe I just suck, so if anyone has thoughts...

i kept wanting to start this thread anytime i'd hear one of these songs, but always forgot. so i just threw it out there, cuz the question was clear in my mind! i hope you'll all play along now, cuz i'm curious what the consensus is.

to forensic scene -- bass on which songs? both?

to be more specific: please listen to 'little trouble girl' and 'my arena' and, judging by your ear, determine whether you think kim is playing bass or (her trademark low-tuned washing machine era) guitar. post here. thanks!!

1. Little Trouble Girl-Bass, I'm fairly sure. The, for lack of a better term, throbbing in the background.

2. My Arena-guitar, less sure, but I still think it's safe to say.

'becuz' and 'washing machine' beg to differ. 'panty lies' would love to agree with you though.

Chris.. I think "Little Trouble" is a guitar. There's definitely a "bass part" (the so called throb) in the song, but to me it DOES sound like a low-tuned guitar.
