I was living with korn in L.A. during the recording of issues. I remember the first time I heard this song recorded at A&M records. I knew it was Korns best stuff to date. I also taught both guitarist in this band. They did good for themselves. Peace, J.R. Goldman
J.R. Goldman holy shit man!!! I was reading this comment like “look at THIS mf” but I looked you up and you REALLY ARE the guy that taught those guys lmfao!! Right on man, I was showing my son this song because it’s one of his favorites and I was at the festival when they first played it, but now I’m watching your videos and teaching him things on the guitar. Great job man, you’re a legend
Me too Cheezer, I was to the left of the stage when they played this song, we were so stoked to be the first ones to hear this song ever(it wasn’t even finished yet lol)
these are probably the lyrics the band came up with, then they changed them when they went in the studio to record. sometimes producers change up little things with the songs the band has when they go into record. they probably went into the studio and played this exact version and then brenadan obrien, who produced this album, said "hey guys it would sound better if you used this word here" etc..
i guess if KORN is still like the band a couple of years back then we wouldnt appreciate them much as we do now. one of the bands that change the course of rock music i believe. still great but i miss the old line-up from Bakersfield...
To everyone who didn't know: THIS CONCERT WAS RECORDED IN THE SUMMER OF '99. ISSUES WASN'T RELEASED UNTIL ABOUT OCTOBER '99. So no, the song wasn't finished. That is all.
I really like the unfinished version of Falling Away From Me. I wish this version was the final one, although the current final version is pretty awesome too..
actually he quit drinking, drugs, and everything in 1998 so no he wasnt drunk.....it even says in heads book that jon was the only sober one at woodstock
KoЯn plays at Woodstock '99. 7/23/99. KoЯn releases their 4th studio album Issues. 11/16/99. thus this isn't Issues Falling Away From Me. just a demo. so dont give it Shit!
yea dude i live in wasco its about 20 min away from bakersfield, and everyone who lives within 100 miles of bakersfield claims they taught munky and head too, come to think of it, i wrote most of their songs and they stole them from me when i was teaching them to play
i like this version better. how he goes back into the verses after he screams beating me down(in this case "be with me down") cause in the recorded version halfway through it gets a bit repetitive.
thats kinda right, in a interview jon says that he wants people to have to listen and decide what hes saying for themselves so the lyrics fit their lives
i have to say that was a good change in lyrics before the album came out a few months later.
As soon as I heard "be with me..."I had to look up when the album came out, "beating me down...."might be obvious but it just hits perfectly

This festival is legendary. Wish I was alive to go to it.
Damn that makes me feel old
Me too Cheezer, I was to the left of the stage when they played this song, we were so stoked to be the first ones to hear this song ever(it wasn’t even finished yet lol)
Korn are so awsome, even the Demo version of their songs are f*cking amazing!

Jonathan had no clue at this point what the lyrics were going to be but they decided to rock it anyways. He was also very sick at this point.
Jon made the lyrics up for the most part right here. He had an idea of way he wanted to melodize and rhyme, but mostly he was winging it.
the birth of my favorite song
Seria ideal volver a ver a los integrantes originales de esta gran banda, aguante KORN !!!!!
John actually made up the lyrics while he was singing
same thing with beg for me
oh the song hadn't come out yet, thats why its different.
amazing live!
i guess if KORN is still like the band a couple of years back then we wouldnt appreciate them much as we do now. one of the bands that change the course of rock music i believe. still great but i miss the old line-up from Bakersfield...

JD got sober in 1998 its in Heads book that JD was clean here read the book its pretty good

3:24 munky doing pedal work
KoЯn plays at Woodstock '99. 7/23/99. KoЯn releases their 4th studio album Issues. 11/16/99. thus this isn't Issues Falling Away From Me. just a demo. so dont give it Shit!

It's curious how different are the lyrics
yea dude i live in wasco its about 20 min away from bakersfield,
and everyone who lives within 100 miles of bakersfield claims they taught munky and head too, come to think of it, i wrote most of their songs and they stole them from me when i was teaching them to play
i miss head :(
BOIDING ME BOIDING ME DOWN
Thats correct
Alan Olymar lol
yea
Issues was released sometime in november, and woodstock... well it doesnt seesm to be november :P
i like this version better. how he goes back into the verses after he screams beating me down(in this case "be with me down") cause in the recorded version halfway through it gets a bit repetitive.
having difficulty denying that jonathan looks sexy in this video
wow they changed the lyrics a lot before it was released
Isn't he playing with Korn on the Chi (instrumental) track?
a drunken rockstar... oh my god!
How many of you don't know what a fucking demo is? Holy hell haha.
And it's BE WITH ME down.
@TheRocker269 demo version and it wasnt finished yet. sorry dude it threw me off too.
They did it so no one would know the real lyrics....well that's my opinion. I could be wrong....
thats kinda right, in a interview jon says that he wants people to have to listen and decide what hes saying for themselves so the lyrics fit their lives
Rohjas66 explains twist then :)
the lyrics r different?
they really need head back, they sound better live with him
They were still writing issues when they played this.
OMG! Is that a shirt less chick on 0:29 sec in the clip? WOW
This is better than the album version. Lyrics are sick, f*ckin' disturbing
@InfamousSI dont u mean follow the leader
@zalorate LOL, What somebody saw this and was like OMG THAT'S MY MOM! HAHAHA, Scarred for life!
Why did he change the lyrics (Beating me down) To(Be with me down) For the live version?
this performance is before the release of the studio album... this is the demo...
That or he was drunk like every singer that's played at a music festival ever.
This is demo version :)...
i wouldnt doubt if some of this was improv.
Fieldy is still the illest dawg out there. lol
Bewin me dow? Did you forget the lyrics, John?
its demo version -.-
like the ''into the ground'' hahaha
Be with me down down far from the ground
this is actually freak on a leash, then they fixed it to how it is now. got it???
Good thing this is just the demo :P I like the real Falling Away From Me a lot better
Well, it's Woodstock.
what the...
but its that same song
so why different lyrics?
he was making up the lyrics at this point
i hear ya plus JD looks like is all fucked up on something but i cant blame him, he's a rockstar at woodstock.

@groovestarguru Save me From Myself...
