It’s a good thing MJ wrote the song cuz if fall out boy first wrote it it would be called “They Told You Don’t You Ever Come Around Here (Beat It) (Album Version)”

2024! Who's with me to watch this? 🥰

"You can do whatever with my music, just don't make it boring" -Michael Jackson. Well they ceetainly did it justice ✊

2024 still in my top 10 covers of all time without a doubt.. certified banger..

Director: How many Michael Jackson references do u want? Fall out Boy: yes

0:10 hey look I'm in a FOB music video!!! get it,,,because I'm trash.

much respect to Fall Out Boy and Alien Ant Farm for including the style of Michael Jackson with his clothing and his dance moves as well as referencing some stuff from his music videos.

Song still hits different.

Patrick in this is all of the eras combined omg its glorious

To all the people pitting this against the original, just two facts for you people, 1) FoB did this not to compete with MJ, but as a tribute to him. 2) FoB stated in an interview that this song was just a sort of restored and modern version of the original, and Patrick said that his voice could never match MJ.

This song is actually what introduced me to Fall Out Boy. I found this song on one of my moms CDs and recognized John Mayer’s name but when I heard Patrick’s Vocals I fell in love lol. 10 years later I’m still a huge fan 🤟💕

2024 Y ESTA INCREIBLE CANCION SIGUE ROMPIENDOLA!

This is what a cover should be: make the song your own, rather than remake it like the original as a tribute.

what I like about this that they recorded this before he passed ...kindah while all that bs was going down with mj. I can respect a band that gives an artist their flowers while they are still living

This version is really really good. Still gives me goosebumps just like the first I heard of this

14 years later and they still can put out some banger covers.

girls during puberty: oh my god I hate my life boys during puberty: *beat it*

Pete: licks guitar Pete: licks bass Pete: licks drums Pete: licks Patrick Me: OKAY WE GET IT YOU LIKE TO LICK BEAUTIFUL INSTRUMENTS FFS

not me becoming obsessed with pete again after nearly 15 years.

One thing the whole world should be able to agree on: Pete Wentz's hair is always legendary

i cannot thank fob enough for this

John Mayer made the solo his own, but it's so awesome he finished with that slide up the neck. Had to pay homage to EVH.

JUST BEAT IT! 🔥🔥🔥

Jackson shaking your hand from the skies!

patrick's face at 1:26 lololololololololololololololololol

1:24 patricks face made me melt :3

The lead singer knows he got vocals 💯..this is a great cover and video.

Just now seeing this. Much respect. MJ is proud. As a long time MJ fan since Jackson 5 until his passing, I appreciate this tribute.

Oh my goodness Andy is actually wearing a shirt!

Nothing beats the original but this comes pretty close

This version absolutely blew me out of the water. Superb piece of work!!!!!

FOB must be hell of fanboys for MJ to do this. You can feel the dedication into this tribute.

The best beat it version ever

Just Pete it Pete it just Pete it PETE IT PETE IT PETE IT PETE IT

I’m ashamed of myself I never heard this from them until now

Hip Hop head here but out of all the punk rock pop bands like green day, good charlotte, the killers etc this guys voice makes it top of my list for sure and they know how to rock out man

IS NO ONE GONNA TAKE ABOUT JOE'S HAIR OMG

I love how at the end, Pete's just sitting there like, "Man, I gotta stop drinking so much before I go to sleep."

3:09 Ooooohhhhhhhh yeeeeeeaaaaah

They understood the assignment 😌

3:16 Stump vocalizing. my soul.

Micheal Jackson: Beat it! Fall Out Boy: Pete it! Edit: Thanks for the likes :D

andy in the back just KILLING IT

カッコイイよねマイケル・ジャクソンもファールアウトボーイも今でもこの曲聴いてる

What's up with Pete licking his bass in early videos😂

OKAY BUT WHY IS NO ONE TALKING ABOUT THE ANGELIC HIGH NOTE OF PATRICK AT 3:13 LIKE DAMN? AND HOW CUTE IT IS THE FACT THAT PETE WAS PLACING HIS HEAD ON PATRICK'S SHOULDER ALOT IN THIS VIDEO I CAN'T-

It's even better when you realize that this was uploaded about a week or two before MJ passed so there's a chance he could've seen it, wonder what he thought if it

As a devout MJ fan this made me happy.. thanks boys, great job, loved it... thanks for honouring the KING. It's disgusting how he was treated, bullied, harrased by media and falsely accused to purposefully bring his empire down in his later years. People failed to understand and appreciate him. But all those people now are irrelevant now and he is still on top 👑👑

2:48 Patrick: rips shirt Me: dies of laughter

John Mayer Unrecognizably rocked his face off in the video.

I've been listening to too much early 2000s / late 90s music recently. It is crazy how I can transport myself to a time when I wasn't really around to observe.

This song had been released one week before Michael left us forever 😔

so... is nobody gonna talk about patricks hip-thing at 1:14? Nobody?

So yeah ok, Patrick got a little thinner, a little more masculine, Pete got his hair dyed, still a cutie-pie for real, Joe's.. still Joe, pretty much, BUT CAN WE TALK ABOUT ANDY'S TRANSFORMATION

Brave that they took this song on. It's like someone remaking a classic movie that everyone loves. Most would leave it alone and not touch it.

They told him "Don't you ever come around here Don't wanna see your face, you better disappear" The fire's in their eyes and their words are really clear So beat it, just beat it You better run, you better do what you can Don't wanna see no blood, don't be no macho man You wanna be tough, better do what you can So beat it, but you wanna be bad Just beat it, beat it, beat it No one wants to be defeated Showin' how funky strong is your fight It doesn't matter who's wrong or right Just beat it, beat it Just beat it, beat it Just beat it, beat it Just beat it, beat it They're out to get you, better leave while you can Don't wanna be a boy, you wanna be man You wanna stay alive, better do what you can So beat it, just beat it You got to show them that you're really not scared You're playin' with your life, this ain't no truth or dare They'll kick you, then they'll beat you Then they'll tell you it's fair So beat it, but you wanna be bad Just beat it, beat it, beat it, beat it No one wants to be defeated Showin' how funky strong is your fight It doesn't matter who's wrong or right Just beat it (beat it) Just beat it (beat it) Just beat it (beat it) Just beat it (beat it) Beat it, beat it, beat it, beat it, beat it Beat it, beat it, beat it, beat it, beat it Beat it, beat it, beat it, beat it, beat it, beat it Beat it, beat it, beat it, beat it, beat it, beat it Beat it, beat it No one wants to be defeated Showin' how funky strong is your fight It doesn't matter who's wrong or right Just beat it, beat it, beat it No one wants to be defeated Showin' how funky strong is your fight It doesn't matter who's wrong or right Just beat it, beat it, beat it No one wants to be defeated Showin' how funky strong is your fight It doesn't matter who's wrong or right Just beat it (beat it) Just beat it (beat it) Just beat it (beat it) Just beat it (beat it) Just beat it Just beat it Just beat it Just beat it Beat it, beat it, beat it, beat it, beat it, beat it, beat it, beat it

Finally! FOB singing a song that isn't a FOB song! XD

As a devoted MJ fan, recognizing so many of his iconic outfits and moves, it brought me great joy! Excellent cover, guys!!

Fob makes a video for the same cover for Dance, Dance is now turning into Beat It and John Mayer is dancing like a freaking Maniac. 😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂

Patrick's vocals are insane here.

They told him don't you ever come around here Don't want to see your face, you better disappear The fire's in their eyes and their words are really clear So beat it, just beat it You better run, you better do what you can Don't want to see no blood, don't be a macho man You want to be tough, better do what you can So beat it, but you want to be bad Just beat it, beat it, beat it, beat it No one wants to be defeated Showin' how funky and strong is your fight It doesn't matter who's wrong or right Just beat it, beat it Just beat it, beat it Just beat it, beat it Just beat it, beat it They're out to get you, better leave while you can Don't want to be a boy, you want to be a man You want to stay alive, better do what you can So beat it, just beat it You have to show them that you're really not scared You're playin' with your life, this ain't no truth or dare They'll kick you, then they beat you, Then they'll tell you it's fair So beat it, but you want to be bad Just beat it, beat it, beat it, beat it No one wants to be defeated Showin' how funky and strong is your fight It doesn't matter who's wrong or right Just beat it, beat it, beat it, beat it No one wants to be defeated Showin' how funky and strong is your fight It doesn't matter who's wrong or right Just beat it, beat it, beat it, beat it No one wants to be defeated Showin' how funky and strong is your fight It doesn't matter who's wrong or right Just beat it, beat it Beat it, beat it, beat it No one wants to be defeated Showin' how funky and strong is your fight It doesn't matter who's wrong or who's right Just beat it, beat it, beat it, beat it No one wants to be defeated Showin' how funky and strong is your fight It doesn't matter who's wrong or right Just beat it, beat it, beat it, beat it No one wants to be defeated Showin' how funky and strong is your fight It doesn't matter who's wrong or right Just beat it, beat it Beat it, beat it, beat it

OH MY GOD.... Pete in this video!!

No one could ever best MJ... but holy hell does FOB come close.

本家のBeat itも大好きなのに、大好きなFOBのカバーでもっと好きになる💗💗💗

Who’s here after Eddie Van Halen died and wanted to hear John Mayer’s amazing homage? That’s a long walk, congratulations! #RIPEVH

Thank you John Mayer for the guitar solo, piano & background vocals feature 🖤🖤

One of the best covers of this song period - epic

Thanks Hazuki for reminding me this awesome cover🥺💕

Patrick's chest hair makes me wanna cry. XD

That's why the solo sounded familiar to me. John Mayer killed it.

🎶BEAT IT BEAT IT NO ONE WANTS TO BE DEFEATED 🎶

Listening now and still the BEST!!! LOVE YA F.O.B!!!!

Anyone else find it hilarious the Patrick rips his shirt and Pete licks his guitar...? XDDD

Me: bored to death because of Covid pandemic Voices inside my head: beat it

John Mayer Slacked on this, hard af.

Amazing guitar solo😍

**sees Fall Out Boy hiding in trash bags in Beat It music video** me: same tbh

Why I love FOB: they took a two word song title... _and somehow made it long_

I feel old. 🤘🏾

Things I like about this music video: - 0:20 bin bag boys - Pete’s hair - Patrick 1:15 - 2:09 I find this hilarious - 2:24 guitar solo - everything about 2:49 - 3:17 owowowowow

the best Micheal Jackson tribute ever !... hugs from brazil !

me: *sees Pete's hair* me: *screams* me: *sees Andy's shirt* me: *screams* me: *sees Joe's hair* me: *screams* me: *sees Patrick's chest hair* me: *dies*

the vocals at the end.. strong voice!!

That Stump boy be sanging!

SMALL MAN BIG VOICE SMALL MAN MANY MOVES

The only cover to _Beat It_ I liked as much as the original!

Ucks yeah! My mans! Great voice, great job! Pete could kick rocks!

Such a GREAT GREAT cover! When this came out I was 18 yrs old a senior in high school, I was blown away and still am!

This was 10 years ago? * cries in old*

Me: Sees trash bags "Hey look it's Iggy Azalea" Fob comes out of trash bags "GuyS IM SOrRY!"

One of the best cover ever! Perfect!! Own skills and perform!!!

So glad to see the Donald Faison cameo at 1:10 - felt like more of an MJ tribute seeing him in it!

Patrick repeating 'beat it' is my new kink. Thanks, Patrick.

The #1 reason I love this video: Patrick's confidence and sex appeal has never been so apparent as when he's channeling his inner MJ. #2 reason: The blissful look on Pete's face while he's got his head on Patrick's shoulder. I never get tired of watching this!

Amazing! Thank you for this

This is everything!!!! Owned it!!!!!

2:22 John Mayer solo is... ugh, i love it. MJ would be proud of this. :(

1:25 I love that face Patrick makes.

The voice perfect

Who's here in '2023??? Still banging like I'm back home, summer time, singing & choreographing my own moves, in my bedroom. Take me back to Mo City. One of favorite videos/tracks/covers of ALL TIME. LLMJ LLFOB
