Composition and lyrics
"Michael Jackson (The Beat Goes On)" pays tribute to American singer Michael Jackson.[1] The song incorporates lyrics from Jackson's biggest hits and showcases a different direction for the band musically which features a lot more electronic effects and less guitar.[4] Speaking about their change in sound, Jean Paul Makhlouf said that it "isn’t a radical departure" and "more of an evolution." He stated, "It’s a lot heavier electro-wise. The beats are better and the hooks are more defined. It’s a mix of our Cash Cash electro dance vibe blended with some dubstep shock bundled with a pop anthem chorus."[1]
