"Beat it" is rock, not R&B

Hi, Krobertj.

Pyrrhus16 doesn't know about genres, he doesn't know the American Culture. If he doesn't know about genres, he must not edit in wikipedia. He must learn to read and understand his sources.

HIS SOURCE Stylus said: "There’s a nervy, frenetic, epic opener (“Wanna Be Startin’ Somethin’”), some jazzy R&B numbers (“Baby Be Mine,” “P.Y.T.”), a conceptual, campy, dancefloor banger (title track), rock-dance (“Beat It”), stories (“Billie Jean”), a duet with the former King of Pop (“The Girl Is Mine” with the irrepressibly silly Paul McCartney), and the smoothest of ballads (“Human Nature”)."

STYLUS SAID:"rock-dance (“Beat It”)", IT MEANS "BEAT IT" IS ROCK.

THE PART:" Eddie Van Halen performs a metal guitar solo—on an R&B record!" , R&B record is refered to Thriller album.

RECORD = ALBUM ------------> R&B record ------> "Thriller" album

SINGLE = SONG ------------> Rock song -------> "Beat It" song

Pyrrhus16 UNDERSTAND WRONG HIS OWN SOURCE. ALSO ALL THRILLER REVIEWS SAYS "BEAT IT" IS ROCK MUSIC. Rolling Stone said "BEAT IT" IS ROCK MUSIC. Stephen Thomas Eewerline of All Music Guide says "Beat It" is hard rock.

About "Beat It", Michael Jackson is quoted in Rolling Stone magazine's Top 500 songs issue as saying of this, "I wanted to write the type of rock song that I would go out and buy. But also something totally different from the rock music I was hearing on Top 40 radio." YOU CAN READ IT IN: http://www.songfacts.com/detail.php?id=459

IF MICHAEL SAID THAT "BEAT IT" IS ROCK MUSIC, IT IS ALL. BILLIE JEAN IS R&B. "BEAT IT" IS ROCK OR HARD ROCK, NOT R&B. YOU SHOULD edit "Beat it" page, removing R&B, BECAUSE IT IS NOT TRUE. WIKIPEDIA MUST HAVE CREDIBILITY. YOU CAN HELP. Thanks --201.230.64.66 (talk) 01:59, 15 April 2009 (UTC)
