➡️ I’ll be honest: I didn’t know The Offspring were considered a punk rock band—more like, “Oh yeah, that ’90s group that played at every skating rink.” But "I Choose" showed me a very different side of the band’s musicality. This song doesn’t just have a “good bass line”—it IS the bass line. In this video, I discuss exactly how the bass elevates the main guitar riff, the subtle use of chromaticism that gives it a classic Motown-esque bounce, how the bass line bridges funk with rock, and how the song’s chord choices sneak in moments of brightness and tension in just the right places.
