'''The Beat Goes On''' is a four-player [[minigame]] found in ''[[Mario Party 3]]''.

[[File:MP3 DonkeyKong.jpg|thumb|left|Artwork of [[Donkey Kong]] playing the drums from the minigame]]
The minigame starts with the [[Shy Guy]]s playing three drum beats. Players take turns copying the beat the Shy Guys made, while beating another drum of their choosing after copying the beat, with the next player having to replicate the beat as well as the added drum then adding another. If a player plays the incorrect drum, the Shy Guys throw torches at them, kicking them out of the minigame. The last player remaining wins. If both lines fill up before a winner is declared, the minigame ends in a draw.
The minigame takes place in a nighttime jungle lake and starts with a [[Spear Guy]] playing four drum beats (two in ''Mario Party: The Top 100''). Players on their lily pads take turns copying the beat the Spear Guy made, while beating another drum of their choice after copying the beat, with the next player having to replicate the beat as well as the added drum and then adding another. If a player plays an incorrect drum or does not play a drum in time, several [[Dancing Spear Guy]]s throw torches at them, eliminating them. The last player remaining wins. In ''Mario Party 3'', if a total of 16 drum beats is played and there are two or more players remaining, the minigame ends in a draw.

In ''Mario Party 3'', if the other players are burned, the winning player's lily pad returns to the starting point, and the player does their victory pose. If all drum beats are played, the remaining players do losing poses while their lily pads move.

This catchphrase was later made even more famous by Belgian singer {{wp|Jacques Brel}} to his accordionist {{wp|Marcel Azzola}} telling him to play faster in a [https://youtu.be/VakkMDarFDQ famous recording] of his French song "Vesoul".
