  • "Beat It" was a song by Michael Jackson. It was playing in the Cafe 80's when Marty McFly entered on October 21, 2015.
  • Beat it de Michael Jackson.
  • Beat It opens in a diner/pool hall, where two men walk outside and then the members of two warring gangs gather and march to a "rumble" inspired by the film West Side Story, at a warehouse. Throughout, Jackson appears as a lone figure, dancing throughout the diner, eventually arriving at the warehouse just as the gang leaders are engaged in a knife fight. The cast begins to dance and breakdance. Also, some of the less-experienced dancers flubbing steps in the background behind Jackson. Many of the participants in the video's dance sequences were actual street gang members, brought in to authenticate the look and feel of the piece.
  • Beat It is one of Michael Jackson's most recognizable songs. It can be found on the 1983 album Thriller.
  • "Beat It" is a double Grammy Award-winning song written by Michael Jackson. It was performed as part of a medley in the 1985 stage show The Muppet Show on Tour: 2nd Edition by Kermit the Frog.
