Fall Out Boy- Beat It (lyrics)

[@katli4806]

That falsetto on "no one wants to be defeated" 😍

[@mysticalcookie12]

Right?! 😍😍😍

[@joybiased]

yessss 😍

[@jiec6603]

Here is the answer to end the debate over which version is better. MJ or FOB. They are both awesome. Neither is better. Neither is worse. They are just both great in their own way. FOB does a great homage to the original.

[@qmchale5130]

Jie C Agreed.

[@omnipotentdunsparce3239]

Jie C That's the truth

[@Trunks1stApprentice]

+Jie C Thank you!

[@summertimesenpai2301]

+Jie C It doesn't matter whose wrong or right JUST BEAT IT x3

[@carolinamorales8034]

+Jie C MJ IS BETTER KING OF POP!

[@sparkknight7618]

proud that my favorite band can cover a the king of pop and do it justice not many can :)

[@carcinogenetricist2993]

+Spark Knight I didn't like it, just too... metally I guess

[@shelbylynn7319]

+Juan Rants ? fall out boy...metally?

[@carcinogenetricist2993]

Shelby Mason what I mean is, well not metally but all the guitars, metally is what pops into my head at the first hearing of it

[@shelbylynn7319]

haha, lol. I understand, I just think it is funny when people say that fall out boy is metal music.

[@carcinogenetricist2993]

Shelby Mason yeah, sorry about that lol :)

[@companypsa]

no, fall out boy DID NOT make this song. They simply covered it.

[@StrangerSiide]

Exactly!

[@danhix5005]

+Justin Mangion well I'm not sure everyone would know. Fallout boys probably has a lot of 12 year old fans who probably don't know who MJ is.

[@magicdolphin3090]

dude, we know, every one knows this song XD

[@dragonias6725]

I'm a millennial and knew who MJ was since I was like 2 XD

[@normanmustdie]

@Angel Snell are you 15 now?? cuz I am

Yesssss xD

[@upasdogs]

[@whodafookisshe]

Michael and Patrick have amazing vocals.

[@jessebrooks7929]

When i heard the opening chord, i was like,"Well, holy shit." o-o Patrick's singing though. :3

[@LegoCat-tz5zo]

KGamin'22 ****I saw that. They could’ve toned down the mayonnaise a little bit, but other than that, it was great.

[@thereyvan]

Someone needs to tell Patrick that mayonnaise is not an instrument

[@sydfletcher8011]

I can't tell whether I like MJs version or the cover better.

[@khloeturner7365]

Same

[@mugsmr_]

Fall Out Boy's version is better

[@chrismobiliofilms]

Fall out boy did a better version of beat it and alien ant farm did a better version of smooth criminal!

[@chrismobiliofilms]

+Leonard Church don't worry it's just my opinion

[@Blade12113]

+Syd Fletcher both are equally amazing but in different ways

[@lunamoon1278]

Pierce the veil did an amazing job at this too! Did they just decide to kill their fans by being all like. FOB: Hey! Ptv I propose a competition that will kill both of our fans. PTV: I'm listening. FOB: Micheal Jackson cover! *air guitar* PTV: Aight' let's mexicore this shiddup! *results* Fans: *Limp bodies with raging parents*

[@jessicacounts7180]

I love Michael Jackson and I think they did an excellent version of this song. Good Job FOB

[@luciaordeix2434]

That falsetto on "no one wants to be defeated" 😍 I forgot this song for years now and now its still as amazing as I heard it last time!!!!

[@sirnipplelickerofjustice774]

Why did you just copy-pasted 2 comments together into one as if they were your own? Just curious, not judging or anything

[@carminescurse]

Most underrated guitarist I've ever seen. Great job on Eddie's luck.

[@carminescurse]

*lick

[@gavinforeman9102]

That’s actually John Mayer playing that solo

[@GabrielarCas]

i love how this song sounds with patrick's voice!

[@anamariabaka4618]

I forgot this song for years now and now its still as amazing as I heard it last time!!!!

[@tatekirven2476]

That wave of "feels" that washes over you when you here this song

[@anamariabaka4618]

right!

[@movedchannelschecknewestvi8929]

Okay! it's story time! when me and my family saw big hero 6 the credits came on and the song immortals starts play about half way into the song my dad says "well he's channeling his inner Micheal Jackson isn't he?" and i'm just sitting there staring...

[@ryokostone3504]

That's beautiful

[@movedchannelschecknewestvi8929]

[@lulu-zx7jv]

[@voxthevillain341]

I love the way he carries his voice for a while at 3:14

[@tooemoforlife1192]

OMG FOB ROCKED THIS SONG😍 My love for them has grown

[@gregorybancroft5990]

This band is way too good at covers. Seriously holy $#!+

[@amandapanda5087]

Only Fall Out Boy can cover Michael Jackson like this

[@FranchescaDeLaRosa]

Amanda Panda too bad they didn't cover the Ghostbusters theme song like this

[@amandapanda5087]

I agree

[@firarisaatler1]

Alien Ant Farm is better

[@random_z9585]

AwesomeBill 94 Child Please

[@firarisaatler1]

Random_Z truth

[@Tedward506]

People don’t know what’s better MJ or FOB, so I guess the saying still holds truth... ‘It doesn’t matter who’s wrong or who’s right’

[@zoeegbo7336]

The closest any artist has ever come to being better than the original

[@dhegonusblue3806]

AAF - smooth criminal. MJ himself said he loved it.

[@LuxuriaU]

Try beat it (pmv) by jananimations it's really good

[@Trunks1stApprentice]

Or Give Into Me covered by Three Days Grace. That was a decent cover to me.

[@recklesssketches3369]

Or bad romance covered by artist vs poet

[@EffingBriansComing]

Zoe Meep 'Hurt' by Nine Inch Nails (original) vs 'Hurt' by Johnny Cash (cover) Ahem, you were saying?

[@Dead_L4st]

The whole band really came together on this one.

[@adam051838]

best fall out boy song ever!!! i love this song

[@AshleyBurkhalter]

adam051838 it's not their song it's Michael Jacksons FOB just covered it

[@dragopure40]

I adore this cover so much! Bravo Fall out Boy for this wonderful version of this song! :)

[@kalihyatt4290]

it's pretty much 2018 and I'm still listening to this 💗 will always be my favorite cover of this song Pete is amazing at the vocals of this I first heard this one when I was on my way to Florida for the first time in 2009 and I was playing guitar hero on my ds in the backseat

[@kalihyatt4290]

I'm now 21 and still jamming to this (:

[@Proraver_420]

Im 27 still listening to

[@LouiseJaneCunningham]

John Mayer does the guitar solo doesn't he! What a babe!

[@highvoltage1970]

This is REALLY good, I love it, but, nobody and I mean NOBODY can get better than MJ's level on his songs. :)

[@playboi_myron05]

Have u ever heard of smooth criminal by alien ant farm

[@thetechzter27]

My recommendation, learn the FOB version when you wanna play Beat It on an acoustic guitar cause it is soo much easier than learning the original one 😊

[@thetechzter27]

Even though the original is better than the cover (not meant for hate, I love MJ and FOB)

[@36crazybullets4myV]

+TheTechzter27 The original guitarist for beat it was Eddie Van Halen best guitarist ever!

[@thetechzter27]

+RangerRick61 Van Halen for the win!

[@Mrsahilshah1]

I can't tell whether I like MJs version or the cover better. I love Michael Jackson and I think they did an excellent version of this song. Good Job FOB This is a song Fall Out Boy would have wrote on their own.

[@adrianhill3955]

🎶0:56 0:57 1:41 2:51 2:52 3:04 3:05🎶 🎶no one wants to be defeated🎶

[@lionpawws]

I love this more than the original, tbh. Maybe that's just because I never really like MJ's Music, but still. 💟

[@blazegirl9899]

If you never really liked Michael's music then you like this one, there's no point in comparing it...

[@AgentMacklinFBI]

but...but it's still Michael's music though just covered

[@christopherphillips5657]

I don’t mind the different colors for texts, but do you really need to use dark colors on a black background? Any English teacher would explain that that’s the worst way to do it. Just saying.

[@tythosdelta2650]

I’m not here to start a fight, as no one can beat the original, but I like that I can actually understand what he is saying in this

[@frickfrack9905]

everyone is commenting "just pete it" i just ksnskdhsks

[@michaelglickman1300]

For those wondering, the musicians are lead vocalist-guitarist Patrick Stump, guitarist-backing vocalist Joe Trohman, featured guitarist John Mayer, bassist-backing vocalist Pete Wentz, and drummer Andrew Hurley.

[@hihello211]

Is it just me or is Patrick saying 'Just *pete* it'

[@kylecronin5324]

He says pete it and beat it

[@aaronvillena4985]

2:27

[@caitlynvincent]

"thanks pe-ete, thanks pe-ete"

[@junkoenoshima9865]

I actually first heard this song in English class.....when you're studying Romeo and Juliet having a teacher with theater class makes it awesome

[@RudaEkpia]

I love how he says "fair" in 1:33

[@spinz521]

Emilio Navarrete Wrong, MJ had 20 odd years in the buissness and he never managed to make a song I liked but as soon as FOB or Alien Ant Farm came a long they changed it!

[@sloemx980]

crispymarshmellows Just because you didn't like it doesn't make it better than the original, the new version just appealed more to you.

[@spinz521]

Fair enough, it's my opinion but it says something about him xD

Why even compare? MJ is the original and was originally pop. So his version is the best in the pop genre. FOB's cover is the best rock version. It's stupid to compare pop to rock, bc rock WILL ALWAYS win.

[@herbcruz4697]

This is a decent cover. It does kinda sound like a song that would be used for the final boss of a Sonic game, though.

I'm not a huge fan of Fall Out Boy's other stuff, but what's really special this cover it's that it's somehow even better than the original for making you feel like you can and will go out and do whatever the fuck you want.
