Here Comes Your Man by the Pixies has really good bass work, so does the new Strokes song, Juicebox.

Re: Best bass song?

Interesting question. I'll have to get back to you on that one...

But off the top of my head, I'm thinking of:
Yes-"Roundabout"
The Who-er, most of their songs

"Don't Give Up" Tony Levin's work here is really good.

Almost anything "The Who" have done, specially "The Real Me".

I was just listening to The Beatles ~ Rocky Raccoon, and I think it's got some pretty cool basslines.

Godzilla by Blue Oyster Cult (especially the live version with the crazy solo) or Have a Cigar by, of course, Pink Floyd.
