James Shaffer comments on inspiration | “ | We were recording this album before we went to Ozzfest. We had 10 songs written and recorded, but we weren't feeling it would be the whole album. We wanted to add 3 or 4 more songs, so we came back to record them. Then our record company was like 'Hey, we'd really love to have a single' and our management, The Firm said 'We would really like to have a smash hit single, man, can you dig it?'. We were really appalled by that scene. They wanted 'Got the Life' or Freak on a Leash, and that shit wasn't flying with us at all! For the first time in our lives we were dissecting our music, and try to analyze the structure of those songs, trying to figure out what made them huge hits. But Korn never works like that, and while we're all were wondering, Jonathan came up with a line: 'Y'all want a single? Say: FUCK THAT!' and we wrote Y'All Want a Single as a big fuck you' to them. Damn, Jonathan is really good at motivating us this way.[1] It's really funny when you think of it, asking a heavy band like Korn to write a 'radio single'. What were they thinking?!?
