Best Beat It tuning

[fraroc04]

It seems that throughout Michael's career, Beat It was in a different tuning every tour. First you have the original album tuning/HIStory tour tuning, then you have the Victory tour/MSG 2001 tuning which is one half step below the original, then you have the Bad tour tuning which is a whole step below the original, and finally you have the Dangerous tour tuning which is a step and a half below the original.

My personal favorite is by far the Dangerous tour tuning. It made the song SO heavy and badass, but what about the rest of you? Which tuning do you prefer?

This is a good topic! I loved how he sounded singing it on the victory tour but I also love the grittiness from the Dangerous Tour. It's defintely a toss up between Victory and Dangerous.

Also don't forget that he sung it in the album key on the first dangerous show in munich

Honestly i like the this is it version. I like when the key is lowered
