Korn - Word Up!

Word Up! by Korn Song Info

"Word Up!" by American nu metal band Korn is a cover of the song by R&B group, Cameo. Its musical arrangements are similar to that of the cover version by Gun, except it is played in a lower sounding 7 string guitar tuning instead of the standard E. "Word Up!" was the first track featured on Korn's 2004 retrospective album, Greatest Hits, Volume 1, and was one of three new tracks along with Pink Floyd's "Another Brick in the Wall" that was exclusive to the album (the "Word Up!" CD single also featured a live performance of the latter). It was released as the album's first single in July 2004, and received heavy airplay on alternative radio at its time of release, peaking in the top twenty of both Billboard charts,whilst making a respectable impression on the mainstream charts of other countries, including Australia (where it debuted at number 28),and Germany (number 46).It is the only Korn single to be sent out to Top 40 radio stations, notably receiving airplay on New York City's Z-100, the largest Top 40 station in the US. Lead singer Jonathan Davis has said of the band's decision to include the song on their greatest hits, "We've been doing 'Word Up' for years as a sound-check song - not the full version, just messing around with the riff" The music video for the song, directed by Antti Jokinen, featured the band-member's faces digitally edited onto dogs in a club scene with women dancing topless. The track is featured in the video game Lego Rock Band.

- Edited?!

So upset this album contains edited songs. iTunes should make this more clear. Why make a Greatest Hits album fully censored?!? I'd like a refund.

- Censored - do not buy

Lies - shame on you iTunes

- censored!!! ???

Had no idea these songs were censored when I purchased, total bummer. Now I have to spend the $ all over to get the real versions.

- GO BUY THE ALBUM SOMEWHERE ELSE!!!!!!!

Whether the listener has the option to sample the songs on the album or not, ITUNES DID NOT LABLE THIS ALBUM AS "CLEAN" OR "CENSORED." KORN'S TASTEFUL AND DISTINCT RAW SOUND IS NATURALLY COUPLED WITH EXPLICIT LYRICS. THIS IS THE WAY THEIR MUSIC SHOULD BE SOLD, AS IT WAS THE BAND'S INTENTIONS FOR THEIR LISTENERS TO HEAR THE VERY LYRICS THEY WROTE. ENOUGH WITH THIS POLITICAL CORRECTNESS AND CENSORSHIP. IF YOU ARE A TRUE FAN OF KORN OR ANY RAW MATERIAL OF THE LIKE, EMBRACE THE MESSAGES EMBODIED WITHIN THEIR LYRICS AND THE DRIVING FORCE OF THEIR SOUND ... THEY ARE SOME OF THE WORLD'S TOP MUSICIANS AND ARE EXTREMELY PASSIONATE ABOUT THEIR MUSIC ... SO ARE THEIR FANS AND FOLLOWERS. DO NOT RUIN THEIR MATERIAL BY MAKING YOUR OWN ADJUSTMENTS TO IT FOR ANY REASON, AS IT SOUNDS HORRIBLE ... I CAN'T STAND LISTENING TO SONGS LIKE "CLOWN,"RIGHT NOW," OR "A.D.I.D.A.S." BECAUSE OF THE CENSORSHIP. GO BUY THE ALBUM SOMEWHERE ELSE!!!!!!

- KORN fricken RULES

Just from the cover of the albums you can tell korn is a heavy metal band. Why would there be a pop band with a picture a door to a insane bin on it. Korn Is a great band all there songs are great. Another thing look at the name of the songs do you really think there would be a pop band with a song called freak on a leash. I mean come on really just give it a chance a maybe you'll like it. Before you buy a song or album read the REVIEWS! Korn if a awesome band and maybe if felt what some members felt growing up you would understand why there not a pop band. It's not there fault they were abused growing up or raised in a violent house hold or environment. And some people act like the music is going to warp there brain or something. So my conclusion is I fricken think korn is a great band! Totally worth time and money.

- Different for me

This cd is new to me. I never listened to Korn but this will be my first cd from them.

- NO EXPLICIT!!!!!

KORN in concert is play loud and offensive and not BLEEPED!!!! Where is the Other Version. EXPLICIT!!!! COME ON iTUNES give people what they want!!!

- Radio Ed.

This album is the "clean" version unfortunately so watch out

- Don't buy

Totally wasted money on this, should have been labeled censored and no option to buy explicit version! Get with it, iTunes! :-(

- Somewhat Satisfied

I was upset over the fact that I had the actual CD Years ago when it first came out and it wasn't sensored. I purchased this on Itunes due to the fact the CD was WAY too scratched up to burn. I love that it has the songs I love. Again, SENSORED REALLY?!!?

- Great Album

This was the first Korn album I bought, and I was automatically hooked. I listen to at least one of these songs every day, and it always pumps me up. I love it. If you like metal, shock rock, nu metal, or even electronica, I'd recommend this to you. Even if you don't, it's worth a listen. Overall, this is a great album that everyone should try out.

- Edited :(

My fault, didn't look close enough, but why would Korn's greatest hits be edited. So &$@"ing sad...

- KORN !!! This great band from Bako, knows how to ROCK !!!

You gotta love there style... "This is rock & roll at it's BEST" Korn is one of thee "BEST of all time.

- Censored....!!!!!

I just wasted $8 on a censored album....sooo annoyed right now. I want my money back

- Great introduction to KoRn!

I got this album not knowing what to expect. A couple of my friends were just going on and on about how Korn is just amazing. I didn't get it at first, but when I heard “Here to Stay” for the first time, I was sold. Pretty much every song on this album is great! Recommend this one for those who want an intro to Korn

- Waste of money

Censored. nuff said…

- Censered!?

Why!? It was great untell there wasn't swearing!!!

- Crap, it's edited for radio!

This album is edited for radio play! This is not the way this album should be played. I bought this and I'm super angry that I can't get my money back. Stupid!

- Yo Itunes

This is METAL METAL NOT POP! Learn the right freaking Genres!

- SERIOUSLY???

ITUNES, CAN YOU PLEASE GET YOUR ACT TOGETHER and PLEASE GET SOMEBODY WHO CAN ACTUALLY KNOW THE DIFFERENCE BETWEEN METAL AND POP? Peace Out!!!!!

- Why

Why is this censored :c

- terrible

worst band ever

- FREAKIN GREAT

My mom and dad love Korn...now I do..and it's not freakin pop Wth get it right...my favorite song is freak on a leash

- This is still edited. Even though it says explicit.

Don't buy this! It's a sham! We can't repel censorship of this magnitude!!!

- Don't buy

I can't believe I spent money on a radio edit korn album. This is the only korn album I regret buying. iTunes I WANT MY MONEY BACK.

- Wth????

Why the $@@$@@$ is it edited? Money back!!!!!

- Clean version

Ain't nobody got time fo dat

- BEWARE!!!!!! It's edited

Who the edits this album? No other options for the real unedited album, I want my money back.

- WHY ARE THESE SONGS EDITED

GREATEST HITS VOL1 I BOUGHT ON A CD ABOUT 10 YEARS AGO, LOVED IT. HOWEVER I AM WASTING MY MONEY ON THIS ALBUM BECAUSE ITS A CLEAN VERSION. WHY WOULD I WANT A CLEAN VERSION OF A KORN CD. RIDICULOUS

- Wow

iTunes I'm disappointed in you

- Label it censored already

I did not realize the entire cd was censored, I knew there was at least one "edited for radio" song on here but not the whole flipping cd. Slap a big fat CENSORED sticker on it already, I would have gladly bought every cd to get the explicit Korn that I know and love instead of wasting my money on this crap. With that being said, Korn still rocks, though I will say that I'm not a fan of the Dante Ross mix of freak on a leash.

- Censored

Waste of money! Never buy from iTunes and now I know why.

- No Option for Uncensored Version

I love this album and would love to give it the extra star, but I can't due to lack of uncensored version (because some of the censoring is complete crap (on Y'all Want A Single and A.D.I.D.A.S.) and I had to buy the uncensored version of A.D.I.D.A.S. at that. Besides that, great compilation! Twist is perfect for an alarm if you want to really wake up in the morning on time.

- Radio Edit

How are you going to include the radio edited versions of the songs on the greatest hits album? Nothing like a dubbed 'hiccup' over the track to ruin a song.

- BS

Unadvertised censored album. Never buy from iTunes again.

- Korn is always been my fav BUY

I didn't know this was the clean version... 😏

- This Album is Great

but iTunes needs to go home because their drunk xP Korn isn't pop

- Wow iTunes

The songs are great and all but iTunes it's METAL not pop! How about you listen to the songs instead of slapping a genre on different albums

- Not properly titled

Why oh why did I not read the info before I bought it. How awkward was it when I was blasting "Clown" and it dubbed out the cursing!? VERY! I'm an adult, I should have the option of censoring it IF I choose to. Shame on them for not putting (Censored) version on the title. If I could I'd give you -5stars you snakes

- Clean?

Get rid of the stupid clean versions then it would get 5 stars!!

- Korn/Got The Life

One of my favorite Korn songs, Jonathan Davis sings with conviction. Very disappointed with iTunes for not informing the customer that this is the edited version.

- Won't play "Word Up".

I paid the full price for the song "Word Up" so I could have it with my music and ever since I have bought it it will not play. It says play when I go to purchase it again but nothing happens. Kind of annoyed by that. I like the song so to have it not play even though I clearly paid for it is a let down.

- Censored!?

I saw the parental advisory stamp so I downloaded it. Guess I should have paid a little more attention because that s@&# is censored like a m#&?+%f@?#&%!!!

- Censored

I didn't realize some of the song are edited. I want to listen to the original lyrics. Can you get a refund?

- CENSORED? WHY NO WARNING?

I love Korn, been a fan since my brother and I bought Issues in 98'. Why the censorship though, and more importantly, WHY NO CLEAN STICKER/WARNING???!!!?!?!?!? I spent ten bucks on what I thought was going to be the awesomeness of Korn and their music, that includes a swear word here and there, Jonathan's vocals getting cut off sounds awful. Refund?

- Terrible!

Why are some songs edited while others are the explicit content versions and on the same album?! I want this album, but not with edited songs. It's fine if you want to make an album for sale with the edited versions of the songs for those who want it, but I want the real version of every song. This is complete BS. This has to be an Apple thing because I can't see Korn actually doing this. Literally the most moronic way to put a "Greatest Hits" album together. Fix it and I'll buy it.

- EDITED!!!! Disappointed!!!!!

HOW DARE YOU decide for Korn Fans what we can and cannot listen to!!! I want my money back and you can keep your RADIO EDITED version!!! You messed with art.

- Censorship

It's not labeled censored!?! Just waisted $10

- the great price is what got me

7.99 so i jump at it but it was the clean verson . i went to my local music store and got the good verson

- Edited?!?!?!

I was furious to find out that I just spent good money on a greatest hits that was edited. I tunes needs to make it very clear when an album is edited. 9.99 I can't get back. Jerks.
