I do not like Michael Jackson. "Beat It" is overplayed. The only redeeming feature of "Beat It" is that Michael Jackson had enough taste to choose "fast" Eddie Van Halen to play the solo (who is best of the remaining 'innovative' guitarists, but that's another matter altogether. I'd love to agrue about Eddie for a while but this is a M. Jackson thing). His videos (that I have seen) are among the best in spite of the music. Would someone send him steroids?
