The majority of songs in this crossover category are in 4/4 time...that is, the lay back 1, 2, beat that is prevalent in good old Beachboy, Beatle, some Simon and Garfunkle, Various one hit wonders, and so on. They definitely have a pushy rhythym and beat that determines their rock 'n' roll status. Who and Boston, Black Sabbath, Cream, Led Zepplin, Cheap Trick, fall more into Hard Rock, because though the words are very interesting, they do not have to entice you to listen to the next bar...it's already collected for you in the driving beat. The Hard Rock allows you the freedom to simply tune in while you're driving your car at eighty (or more) and the strength of the body of music moves you so much you don't need the facts on the drama of words or stories to hold your interest. In other words, you don't care how the girl got to the same place you did...she's there! In all cases though, the R&R colors in all of your emotions from blues to car racing to girls by giving you a straight beat and variety of chords. By all means both are rock and roll. R&R has song stories, melodies, dramatic turning points and themes holding your interest along with a well rounded beat to encase the tune, while Hard Rock skips the introductions. *Heavy Metal might be the next step in treating Rock 'n' Roll to a day in the park without even the slightest hint of story. Just a suggestion into a thought may be well enough to hold your interest.*

Why does heavy metal music have such hard beats?
Heavy Metal was originally coming from Rock. Because Rock isn't that hard like Heavy Metal and Heavy Metal was invented, it shows the difference between both music genres. Heavy Metal must have hard beats as same as country music needs accustic guitars and heartbroken lyrics. Same as techno needs infinite amounts of the same beats with few breaks, but the rythm is the same all the time in a loop.
