A.D.I.D.A.S.

The title of the song stands for "All Day I Dream About Sex." It has nothing to do with the sporting goods company, although it is a common misperception that this is what "Adidas" stands for. The company is named after it's founder, Adi Dassler. "It was just a dumb song," lead signer Jonathan Davis reflected in a 2024 Adidas Originals video interview. "It's just like, it was nothing. I think I started with the riff, we were doing it... it was the second record and we wrote the song and I remember the acronym for it was 'All Day I Dream About Sex.'" "It could be a million different things," he continued. "They would say 'sports', there's all different ones. It's very immature and juvenile. It representative of where we were at, at that point in time. You're 24 years old. That's all you really think about, especially being in a rock band. That's just the whole dream and everything. But it's like, at that time that song was everything to me."

A minor radio hit, this song helped Life is Peachy, Korn's second album, debut at #3 on the Billboard albums chart. "A.D.I.D.A.S." was also the band's first song to nick the Billboard Hot 100, bubbling under at #113 (Korn's popularity was never well-represented on these charts). All this led to an appearance on the 1997 Lollapalooza tour, which helped cement Korn's status as a group with mass appeal.

Korn's songs are band compositions, with lead signer Jonathan Davis writing the lyrics. On this song, he takes a self-deprecating look at his sexual prowess, pointing out that most of his action happens in his mind.
