Korn’s ‘Daddy’: The Song Too Painful to Perform

Korn’s track “Daddy,” from their 1994 debut album, delves into frontman Jonathan Davis’s traumatic childhood experiences. Due to its deeply personal nature, the band rarely includes it in live performances.

Davis has expressed reluctance to revisit the song on stage, stating, “I don’t think I wanna go through that again.” The band briefly reintroduced “Daddy” during their 2015 tour but has since retired it from their setlists. ​
