"A.D.I.D.A.S." is a song written and recorded by American nu metal band Korn for their second studio album, Life Is Peachy. It was released as the album's second single in March 1997. The title is an acronym for the statement "All Day I Dream About Sex" and indirectly refers to the popular sportswear brand Adidas. The backronym from the brand name dates to the 1970s. "All Day I Dream About Sex" was a recurring joke in the sports shop where Jonathan Davis worked in the early days of Korn. When Korn began, Davis wore an army green tracksuit. He soon drew a "Korn" logo on one with a pen and presented it in live performances that included the bagpipes. He said wearing Adidas "was about breaking the mould, man ... it was about going against everything that metal was supposed to be". From 1993 to 1997, the band established its style by wearing mainly Adidas T-shirts and tracksuits, which became a "trend" and unified their fan community. The clothing brand was also willing to provide them with free merchandise. Davis was described as having an "addiction and a mad obsession to sex", and "constantly fantasizing" about women, and claimed to be a "porn movie specialist". "A.D.I.D.A.S." contains the sexually charged lyrics: "I don't know your f---ing name / So what? Let's f---!". The song was a "wink" to the old backronym "All Day I Dream About Sex" and to the brand. At the time, some said Korn was "indecent, vulgar, obscene, and intends to be insulting". Fans wearing the band's characteristic style of clothing with the "Korn" logo printed T-shirts were considered "not different than a person wearing a middle finger on their T-shirt". While the terminology "nu metal" appeared shortly after 1998, Korn and Adidas had pushed the boundaries of the metal code; Davis later stated, "our attitude has always been punk rock".
