Favourite Hoooky Bassline?

Heard the intro to Transmission by JD, that's what got me, err, hooked on the band, so that's always been at the top for me.
Hearing Age Of Consent on the radio when PC&L came out was another thrill, that intro had me reaching to turn up the volume knob right away.
BLT, especially one of the remixes, I believe by Shep Pettibone , where the bass is mixed way to the forefront.
I seriously have to say the Jetstream intro bass is really cool. Sorry, I know you guys really hate that song. The Perfect Kiss, Doubts Even Here, I Told You So and Sunrise are very catchy as well though.
In no particular order: Sedona (monaco music for pleasure) In a lonely place Age of consent Round & Round (i had a mix on CD which had hooky playing solo then the rest kicking in again, but lost it in a drunken stupor !) WFTSC Run Lonesome tonight Regret
Too many to mention realy, cos for me Hooky is the best bit of NO, but it wouldn't be the same without Barney & Steve (and Phil/Gill of course).
This Time Of Night. Absolutely sublime.
Also Round & Round (especially Electronic Ecstasy live 93 version).
Perfect Kiss.
Temptation (especially the part when Barneys going "Bolts from above hit the people down below....").
And loads more. In fact Hooky hardly does a duff riff. Sometimes its a bit too overpowering (AIWWIW) or Way of Life. But hes awesome!
Blue Monday (all) Transmission (all) Ceremony (all) Crystal (his solo in advanced promo) WDYWFM (best inro ever) Regret (love it and its a shame that is to low)
thats for the moment
