KoRn - Daddy(demo)

[Shadywolf09]

I had a dream not too long ago about this song; only the final version on their first album. I dreamt I was comforting and hugging JD as he cried after recording the song. No child should ever have to carry that much pain. When your child tells you this kind of shit, be a fuckin parent and give your kid some justice. Don't let them suffer anymore.

[rageroidgeyo]

daddy why did u touch me there.. when it was a family relative .... don't get it

[bballplaya3993]

Both songs are both heavy in a metal standard and a emotional standard yet the demo sounds more darker and sickening. Even more sickening because of Jonathan being molested by some sick fuck as a child and that justice has not ever been returned.

[pukeslot]

:40 over and over again makes me laugh :)

[Proph3cyify]

Fucking love it!

[NadjaFreakLoveDavis]

this one make me cry at the end u.u i know how it feels jd u.u I LOVE YOU MAN!

[Nic3Buxton]

The lyrics suddenly make a bit more sense... the soft part where he's speaking as little jon, and then the mean heavy gut wrenching terror of a riff, in which the lyrics support and paint the picture of big mean molesting fat entity in a wife beater and house slipper, menichal smile, and belt in hand. So powerful.

[SIRRIX000]

I own most of Korn's DVDs, all of their CDs, a bunch of their pre-98 live shows, and all that. I've read a bunch about them and I know a lot of shit. If anyone wants this demo, message me and I'll send it to you. I have it in HQ. Also have live shows. Jons pre-94 voice was way different, and he was great from 93-97, until he got vocal lessons in '98. Watch Blind from '93-'97 and then watch one from '98. Dramatic change. His voice weakened a LOT. You can hear it in the "Are You Ready!?"

[JoeJobExpress]

@SIRRIX000 dude, i want the demos

[SIRRIX000]

The original version of this song was called "Follow Me" and it wasn't by Jon Davis. He just added in the parts about rape. Just like "Blind" wasn't written by him, and he co-wrote Faget. My Gift To You was originally called "See Thru" -- That song is on Youtube. Same song, different lyrics. JD turned it into "Molested" and then later "MGTY" for Follow the Leader. People who are arguing on here, just Google this stuff... Multiple sources beyond Wikipedia will tell you this.

[michaelrobbins1]

this song still gives me goose bumps

[K0RN0nAc0b]

this version sounds perfect for bioshock!

[thapwnisher]

if only they could replace the verses with the album version but keep everything else.

[5H4d0wW4rr10r]

When I first listened to the selftitled album version of this I almost cried with Jon at the end

[aysn19nov]

Regarding your description, it was '93, not '92.. :)

[zombieboy4566]

in this version of daddy it was anger missed in with sadness now the new version of daddy was missed in with sadness guilt and sorrow i prefer this version he owned the monster who molested him in this version

[TheBigDickInYourAss]

bitch got raped

[kcity3]

This is a crazy version

[CtrlAltCorrupt]

No offense, but in the verse his vocals are intolerable. But the song is good nonetheless.

[aysn19nov]

@CtrlAltCorrupt Yeah, it sounded like he was on helium or something. :|

[DisKardRecords]

@aysn19nov na speed bro he said so in this interview i watched not to long ago so yeah LOl

[dbzmad342]

sexcat wtf

[ginobeats123420]

this course is pretty sweet...the original is good too

[jurkis1]

Its also on Heart of darkness i should say. Which they released in 1995 and it has live songs too and the christmas songs.

[88472456]

personally, i dont like the long chorus on the album version. and this one is realy heavy. but is there any reason why they changed this one (like blind that was originally from john's old band) ?

[kornflekes]

Yes, the band name was "Sexart", the founder was Ryan Shuck from "Orgy", the had some problems because Mr. Davis "Stole" the song from Shuck, funny.

[88472456]

kinda funny but seriously. is there anyone who heard bout thoses 2 groups (sexart & orgy)? they could just have leave it to john if anyway it wouddnt be seen as their song. like, almost no one will know this song from sexart im pretty sure. they'll all see it as korn's starts with neidermeyer's mind demo tape

[AvengedK0rn7Fold]

sunj5976 u are a re-ree the music is formed around the lyrics

[sunj5976]

do we really care about what the songs about??

i mean everyone knows jon was fucked up and probably still is a little,,

just enjoy the music, which is cool,

i think its better then the album version

[pUnKmUzZy]

@sunj5976 umm yeah

[dbzmad342]

i like this version more

[AIDOZ]

it's about a family friend sexually abusing him and his parents not believing him. the abuser was a woman

[jesnjer]

this is how i remember korn when i used to see them as local band in cali

[SylocksRemains212]

you guys are idiots ok. Daddy is about a neighbor sexually abusing JD and that his parents didnt believe him. And Kill you is about his step mom. Damn its very simple look this shit on wikipedia damn.

[NAMhazard]

but honestly wikipedia isnt always correct

[parkerman6]

no,it's NOT about a neighbor that'sa rumour based on misunderstanding mr rogers lyrics,the last song on their first three albums are ALL about his step mom,he even says this song is about his step mom on the interview on my page.

[dshuskies16]

listen to the lyriccs. "Mommy, why did Daddy touch me there?" it sounds pretty clear to me that his dad molested him, not a neighbor/friend. but jon says its a woman, so thats what i believe. this song just makes me have second thoughts.

[parkerman6]

no, it was his step-mom, jon says so on the interview on my page, people think it was a neighbor because of mis-understanding of the meaning of mr. rogers song.

[lastresort608]

but in the song he says, "i'll be your daddy" implying that the person in not already his father.

[23imag]

his dad and neighbor raped him and his real mother knew about it all but did nothing to stop it and his stepmother beat him so he ran away

[Hitokiriitachi999]

this song was only performed once. Jonathan got too emotional and had to leave the stage.

[xMINOR55THREATx]

can someone give me the link to download

neidermayer´s mind demo, send me the link in a message if you want to help me out :)

[mckendo83]

the picture in this video is how i remember my first impression of korn... it was 1994 i was 11 years old and i was this shirt at a bunch of stores on the boardwalk in wildwood new jersey and i didnt know anything about them at that point...by 1996 they were my favorite band.

[lastresort608]

both demo and album versions are great

[picball39]

i love korn, the beginning he sounds like a goat xD awesome

[wwfeowner]

The song is about him being raped and his parents not doing anything about it

[kellerdood32]

"I think JD's father did rape him, but he didn't want to be judged and stuff, and didn't want people to know his bussiness so he told everyone a female family member raped him"

i agree with this completely

[TravisBickle93]

I Think it was his step mother because of the Lyrics to Kill You, but we'll probably never know what actually happened

[parkerman6]

yep, jon says this song is about his step mom on interview on my profile page.

[PeQQetT]

Dude, if you mean that interview on ur profile page they are talking about the song KILL YOU, that song is about his step mom, and it says on the interview its 1996, thats when life is peachy came out, and kill you is in life is peachy

[parkerman6]

NO! in the interview they are no longer talking about kill you, vanessa says I thought you never wanted to relive DADDY, and jon responds immediatly " I don't It's(DADDY) about my step mom and I hate that bitch"

[PeQQetT]

no he doesnt mean like that, munky said that kill you was like daddy, so vanessa thought that Kill you was about daddy, so she asked the question and JD said, no its about my mom and i hate that bitch, u should watch the interview again and listen

[parkerman6]

no! you should watch it again and LISTEN, vanessa did not think kill you was about daddy, fieldy said kill you was in the same realm(vein) as daddy, and then vanessa asks about jon not wanting to relive daddy, and jon says DADDY is about his stepmom.

[PeQQetT]

ok fine, i will let u know the wrong thing then, i mean, its so fucking obvious

[kellerdood32]

no they were talking about kill you still you fucktard...your so fucking ignorant

[parkerman6]

no, they switched to talking about daddy,idiot,she said I thought you wanted to moveon from daddy,and he immediatly said without pause,it's about his step mom,stupid,which means he's talking about daddy,fool!

[kellerdood32]

once again, your very ignorant, im done arguing fact.

[linkenski]

I think it's because his neighbour raped him, and his step mom saw it, although she acted as if she hadn't seen anything afterwards.

[farmer5123]

I'm gonna download this

[pathtohavenless]

I wish I could find this demo tape somewhere...

[jurkis1]

Its on the album Heart of darkness. You can find it but it is pretty rare. I have it recorded on cassette somewhere.

[XTheDesertSongX]

guys it wasnt jons dad that raped him. he said that they have a good relationship.

it was jons neighbor and on an interview they said it was a woman

[Hosenlatzwilly]

But why does the song say it was his dad?

[sexxymilkjar]

sounds sweet!!

i think there self titled album version is better tho.

it shows more emotion.

[undone14]

I like the death growls "FOLLOW ME."

[SolidSoulrider]

he's saying mommy why did daddy touch me there?

momy u no what i dont even fucking care

[Keeko41k]

I think JD's father did rape him, but he didn't want to be judged and stuff, and didn't want people to know his bussiness so he told everyone a female family member raped him.

[theroseoftralee]

Yeah it is kind of weird that all the lyrics pretty much say his dad molested him...but he says it was a female neighbor!

[Keeko41k]

I dont mean to laugh because this song has a lot of meaning and stuff and korn is my favorite band but why does he sound like a little sheep. He even stuttered like a sheep at one point.

[cross666fade]

I like the bass line in the beginning.

[kornrules6798]

ok is it just me cuz i heard laughing at one point in this vid. wtf?

[WRF713]

2:27 there's laughing

[pap2k8]

there is laughing because it is supposed tosignify the fact that jons parents didnt believe that he was abused by a neighbour and they laughed.

[kornrules6798]

o thanks

[Andr3azX]

This is deffinetly better than the other version IMO.

[PredictableHate]

KoRn rocks!! Can i get a link where i can download these demos?

[lordessoftherings]

HA! He sounds like a sheep.

[MarceLLecraM665]

David is the f**king drummer! if you knew something about this bands you'd know!

i know, but if i look @ my keyboard, i see that the D and the S are next to each other, i probebly made a little mistake;)

[TUNDRA35]

[metalfanX7]

[amanofgreatevil]

Thanks dude for posting this beautiful song

[TUNDRA35]

hey np bro glad u enjoy it as much as i do. \../

[HeavyTheWorld]

Check out Ross Robinson working on this demo (during studio time paid for by the band Heavy The World in 1993) in "The Making of Dog - pt 10" on HTW's channel. RR bankrupted HTW with his hi fee &time wasting, while pludering their ideas such as 11-halfstep downtunings he later applied to other bands. He then reportedly got korn a record deal with this demo, making himself quite rich in the process, while never helping HTW, the band who paid for the time, at all.

[HeavyBeavan]

yeah this is sick, the demo tape of this shit is so rare, check out my music on my profile.
