Lead singer Jon Davis wrote the lyrics to this song about the music industry, which he compares to an owner walking a dog. While he's this freak being paraded around, corporate America is making all the money... and it's taking a part of him.
This may just be *the* most crushing breakdown in music. Tremendous song. I don't understand people who don't appreciate how epic this is. Entertaining video too. :)
Korn started to blow up right as i was about to enter high school. They came out of what seamed like no where with a sound unlike anything at the time and lyrics that really spoke to the outcast kids who didnt fit in.
Fun fact: Todd McFarlane did the animation/drawings for this video. He is the creator of Spawn (comics, along with other titles under his artistry). Korn was on the Spawn movie soundtrack, a collab song with the Dust Brothers called "Kick The P.A." - KoRn is one of my fave bands, for sure. Each album is a gem. Life Is Peachy, Follow The Leader and Issues are the top 3 albums by KoRn. They are amazing live.
I'm Filipino, back when I was in H.S '95-99 my peers never understood me why I listened and rocked to their songs at school, a Christian school. Hehe. I'm 37 now with 2 children & I still rock to them on my spotify playlist. Felt nostalgic watching the video once again. Try reacting to their video GOT THE LIFE.
KoRn nuTT We gotta ease him into it - cant be taking him straight to the dark side, we gotta acclimate him - like introducing a little fish into a very dark aquarium
KoRn nuTT Man, I’ve seen a lot of reaction channels dive straight into Daddy - Vin and Sori did, it messed that girl up, she wasnt ready for it. Vin knew about it tho.
The lead singer curated and cowrote the "Queen of the Damned" soundtrack. Some of the artist you've been listening to are on the soundtrack. You could tell it's designed after his style once you've heard it. It'll remind you of this song.
Korn has been my number 1 fav band for over 20 years followed by Slipknot. Definitely check out here to stay, coming undone and their new album just released is great! Their song "Blind" woodstock show is another dope video to check out.
The next Korn song to react to has to be "coming undone"! The meaning of "freak on a leash" that I've heard is that it's about the music business/fame and not being allowed to do everything you want and having to do things you don't want to do.
"Thoughtless" is my favorite Korn song! Jesse Pinkman is the main character of the video, way before Breaking Bad came out 😁💜 loving the channel as always
Funny that you said “Children of the Corn” because there’s a track called Children of the Korn that features Ice Cube on this same album. You should listen to it.
Been watching a lot of you're videos, and I love them. the music you analyze is music I grew up with, but you make me see it in a whole new light. Thank you for that, and keep rockin on🤘
Damn dude! You just blew my mind with that bullet symbolizing him being the "freak on a leash". I got this album as soon as it dropped and been and old school Korn fan since they started and I seen this video a billion times and that thought never even crossed my mind. I had another, personal, subjective view on it but yeah my dude. That's awesome.
I remember how old dudes are always like “damn now this song takes me back” Well... damn this song takes me back. 16 working at McDonald’s summer time of 99. This is when I really started to pay attention to the true beauty of music. How it grabs your effin brain and bleeds straight into your soul. Giving you goosebumps. Like yeah feel this.
I love how you listen to a bunch of songs from a band shortly after you first react to them. It gives you such a better picture of what that band is like than any one song could. Smart way to do it, and something I don't see any other reaction channels really doing.
One of my fav bands of all time, been following them since they started, and the only band I have seen in concert. I nearly got crushed , had no feet on the floor it was crazy.
Ok so this video won a bunch awards from MTV for best video etc... If you listen to this song on a good system it bumps hard!!! HUGE fan of Korn. Seen then 7 times live
Bruh, I just found your channel. Just wanted to say it’s incredible to see you reacting for the first time to this music that has been in my life for decades. You’ve helped me rediscover how great and impactful this music is. Keep up the good work!
1:12 hahahha they actually have a song called Children Of The KoRn! you should definitely check it out (it has some funky rap metal vibes featuring Ice Cube so I'm sure you'll like it) great reaction as always, keep it up!
first time I've seen your channel, I love seeing people willing to expand their musical horizons. you have a very awesome presence on camera. great video. new subscriber 😊
Hey man! You gotta watch "Korn- Falling Away From Me" now. The video starts right as this one ENDS. So, they connect. Plus, it's one of the dopest songs ever.
Im so happy you did this song. This song makes me feel like a dark sinister. I'm a masochist and I live this feeling. Hope I can share with others that type of bad side
Thanks for your channel! Good stuff. I can't wait for you to get to Ghost. So many great songs! But some to get you started would be Square Hammer, Cirice, Dance Macabre, and Rats. Soooo many more though. I hope it's soon! Thanks for the work you put in.
Check out "All in the Family" Its off the same album as this song and it has Korn and Limp Bizkit going back and forth in a diss track : D its one of my favorites
Man I could not wait for you to see korn. Many more in this same album that are a must and album Issues is amazing. Falling Away From Me, and Somebody Someone are 2 good songs
React to Smile Empty Soul: - "Bottom of a Bottle" - "Silhouettes" - "This is War" - "Nowhere Kids" I promise you won't regret listening to this band. They'll remain on your playlist for years to come!
Korn "Blind" at Woodstock 99' The best crowd footage ever. No cell phones. 500,000 people jumping like liquid. Korn was at the height of metal and are still selling out shows today!!
Love Korn! Seen these guys in concert so many times...Great, Great Show they put on!! Jamal, check out Falling away from me, Got the Life, Hey Daddy, and Somebody Someone...Just to name a few more, thanks.

The band is the freak on a leash.. this song is about the music industry or record companies
😅THANKS😅
Which then also goes into "yall want a single", since they were bound by some restricting contracts
Ya about them being whored out by the labels. Hence the line "a cheap fuck for me to lay"
Rob Esposito I’ll be honest and admit I never understood the lyrics to that part, and I finally get it now after 20 years. Cheers, my dude.✌️
I thought the song was about Brian Welch's sexual/romantic experiences, but the record label thing makes alot of sense.
Dude, you wouldn't believe how big of a deal these guys were when this album first dropped - the whole musical landscape warped around them!
He is not wrong, they changed Rock music!
Wasnt even a big Korn fan AT ALL during the late 90s, but as i got older i started to appreciate what they gave us.
They are the Rabbit Hole till this day. Last time I saw Head he was on Huckabee and Johnathan was on Alex Jones.
@@AClark-jx9zp when was this? Davis on Jones show?
They started a whole new genre and sound.
Lead singer Jon Davis wrote the lyrics to this song about the music industry, which he compares to an owner walking a dog. While he's this freak being paraded around, corporate America is making all the money... and it's taking a part of him.
👍🏾
"FALLING AWAY FROM ME" is the 2nd half to this!
+1 it continues the music video and is an amazing song!!!
I would recommend this video as well as Here to Stay.
This may just be *the* most crushing breakdown in music.
Tremendous song. I don't understand people who don't appreciate how epic this is. Entertaining video too. :)
“They got these kids out here lookin like children of the corn” kinda the point, they literally have a song called ‘Children of the Korn’ lol

There's so many layers to metal you've only scratched the surface.
Deftones "digital bath" "rosemary" "knifeparty" "my own summer" "change in the house of flies" "passenger" "diamond eyes" "shut up and drive"

You have now entered the wormhole known as KoRn, I can't wait for more 🔥🤘🔥🤘🔥🤘🔥
KoRn nuTT We gotta ease him into it - cant be taking him straight to the dark side, we gotta acclimate him - like introducing a little fish into a very dark aquarium
@@narcissistectomy5134 I know you're right but I just want to see him dive in, I don't see alot of people doing reactions to KoRn
@@KoRn_NuTT Hell I'd use to reaction of this song in school and id didn't care
KoRn nuTT Man, I’ve seen a lot of reaction channels dive straight into Daddy - Vin and Sori did, it messed that girl up, she wasnt ready for it. Vin knew about it tho.
@@narcissistectomy5134 I've seen all of em, look at my name
Korn ft ice cube.. "children of the corn"
Check it
And All in the Family.
check it twice
Ice Cube ft. Korn, “fuck dying”
Like to see ya review Gorillaz’s “Clint Eastwood” and “Feel Good Inc”.
He probably would even know these but yes react to this
Oh yeah!!!!
"stylo" a personal favorite of mine
Good call, Love Gorillaz!!
Instant "I like that beat" face, my first reaction 20 years ago too. XD THOSE GOOSEBUMPS THO
This video being played on MTV in the late 90's had a big impact on a 13-14 year old me. It started me down the rabbit hole of Heavy metal 🤘🏽
The bullet is NOT the freak. Jonathan Davis is the freak.
A.D.I.D.A.S by Korn would be sick
Oh hell yeah
Yes, yes, yes!!!!!!
Twist lol
(sic)*
@Jack D as much as I like that song, the video is just gross sorry to say.
The lead singer curated and cowrote the "Queen of the Damned" soundtrack. Some of the artist you've been listening to are on the soundtrack. You could tell it's designed after his style once you've heard it. It'll remind you of this song.
This takes me back to my high school days, I guess I was 17 years old when this came out. Damn I'm old, I'm 39 now.
Korn has been my number 1 fav band for over 20 years followed by Slipknot. Definitely check out here to stay, coming undone and their new album just released is great! Their song "Blind" woodstock show is another dope video to check out.
The next Korn song to react to has to be "coming undone"!
The meaning of "freak on a leash" that I've heard is that it's about the music business/fame and not being allowed to do everything you want and having to do things you don't want to do.
Everything on issues
You should try Blind, Here to Stay, Throw me Away.
Yes! blind.
Good God, Need To, Make Me Bad, and Embrace are others I’d recommend on top of yours.
Blind and that whole first album is one my all time favorites.
@@dla0620 their first album is great. I was so obsessed with this band when I was a teen.
but the Thoughtless video has Jesse Pinkman in it!
"Thoughtless" is my favorite Korn song! Jesse Pinkman is the main character of the video, way before Breaking Bad came out 😁💜 loving the channel as always
Gotta check out “Got the Life” by Korn.
That gets my blood pumping every time I hear it. Always on my gym playlist
This band got me into being a musician.
I swear I got GOOSEBUMPS when you said you did! I love korn and I always get goosebumps when I listen to them!
Absolutely love watching people react to this song lol The metal beat boxing part is gold. Classic. Always will be one of my favorite songs.
Korn is one of my favorite bands! Their untouchables album helped me through some depression when it was released.
Please do more Korn! I’m a huge fan!! Coming Undone, Falling Away From Me, Make Me Bad. All good!!
I've been asking forever
Loved this reaction man it truly reminds me of the first time I heard freak on a leash. Thanks for appreciating korn!
The sequel to this video is "Falling Away From Me" - picks up where this one left off. Gotta react!!
Funny that you said “Children of the Corn” because there’s a track called Children of the Korn that features Ice Cube on this same album. You should listen to it.
Korn - Daddy. It’ll really make u emotional. A terrifying song with a discussing experience for the singer
This song is a real challenge, I teared up several times
Maybe their best song ever.
I suggest this the other day, and some ass told me, "it would be wrong for the channel"!
@@jam2190 well it's not really positive vibes is it 😅 maybe that's the reason this person was thinking like that
@@richtigersoan no, but also a few song on here are not " positive vibes" now are they??
Been watching a lot of you're videos, and I love them. the music you analyze is music I grew up with, but you make me see it in a whole new light. Thank you for that, and keep rockin on🤘
so glad you viewed them! dive deeper bro! they had alot of dope songs back in the day! glad to be here as always!
I forgot how much I loved Korn. Thank you for reacting to this
Damn dude! You just blew my mind with that bullet symbolizing him being the "freak on a leash". I got this album as soon as it dropped and been and old school Korn fan since they started and I seen this video a billion times and that thought never even crossed my mind. I had another, personal, subjective view on it but yeah my dude. That's awesome.
Man I just gotta say it’s a joy watching you react to music and discover new stuff and see how much joy it gives you!
thank you for doing Korn and this song! lots of good ones keep going! plz!! :)
korn is still my favorite band this was that shit back in the late 90s
I’d like to see a reaction to “Ya’ll want a single”
I'm glad you like the music your fans choose, brings back memories man, thanks for thst and I hope you enjoy more
This was GOLD! I forgot how AWESOME this song is! Thanks Jamal!
Now you’ve gotta review their song “blind” at Woodstock. I will await your priceless reaction
I remember how old dudes are always like “damn now this song takes me back”
Well... damn this song takes me back.
16 working at McDonald’s summer time of 99. This is when I really started to pay attention to the true beauty of music. How it grabs your effin brain and bleeds straight into your soul. Giving you goosebumps. Like yeah feel this.
Dude props to you your always putting out great new content it seems new stuff all the time much respect
Dude! So love the fact your face can’t hide how you feel about a beat! Plz,keep doing what you are doing! Xo
Love that i lived during a time when this kind of shit got to the top of the charts, what a classic, both the video and the song.
Well now you need to watch the second part of this story, video-wise at least, by reacting to Falling Away From Me.
Love seeing your reaction to the music I grew up with. Very much appreciate your appreciation for this genre
Love Korn I been a fan for over 20 years ❤️
Gotta love that heavy music that has a groove instead of just headbanging. Getting older so I just do light head banging now😂. Badass song
Oh you going off the deep end now.......good luck!!
😅
I thought the same thing. 😂 Keep an eye out for our man. That rabbit hole is deep. lol
I love how you listen to a bunch of songs from a band shortly after you first react to them. It gives you such a better picture of what that band is like than any one song could. Smart way to do it, and something I don't see any other reaction channels really doing.
One of my fav bands of all time, been following them since they started, and the only band I have seen in concert. I nearly got crushed , had no feet on the floor it was crazy.
"Got these kids looking like children of the corn out here...."!!!

These guys are brilliant! Love, love!

I love your videos brother, Im glad I found ya recently.. 🇺🇸💪 stay blessed
fun fact: The video was drawn by Todd Mcfarlane, the father of Spawn and also drew spiderman for many years.. My favourite cartoonist.
This is still one of the dopest videos I've ever seen
👍🏾
Im not a Korn fan, but your reaction made it enjoyable dude..
LOL when the scat part was going, it was funny to see you headbanging a little bit.
HAHAHAHA. LOVE YOUR REACTIONS. You keep exploring and I'll keep smiling. Loving your journey.
You should react to Falling Away From Me, its technically part 2 of this video
This brings back some great late 90's teenage angst! Still holds up
Thanks for your channel! Good stuff. I can't wait for you to get to Ghost. So many great songs! But some to get you started would be Square Hammer, Cirice, Dance Macabre, and Rats. Soooo many more though. I hope it's soon! Thanks for the work you put in.
Hell yes! I love watching you love them!
Nobody:
Jonathan Davis: Da boom na da noom na namena
Korn Rocks! Love their songs and Limp Bizkit has some good ones too!
Everyone hates on Bizket but they have some bangers
Love me some Biz Limpkit 🔥🤘🔥
While I’m not a huge fan myself, they do have some good stuff.
Break stuff by limp bizkit would be a good one to check out.
Check out "All in the Family"
Its off the same album as this song and it has Korn and Limp Bizkit going back and forth in a diss track : D its one of my favorites

The videos rarely have anything to do with the song meanings.
"Got the Life" is another good one.
Man I could not wait for you to see korn. Many more in this same album that are a must and album Issues is amazing. Falling Away From Me, and Somebody Someone are 2 good songs
