    How chop suey got its name: The song was originally titled "Suicide" but Columbia Records forced the band to change it to avoid controversy. The song title is therefore a wordplay, with "self-righteous suicide" replaced by "self-right-chop suey-cide" in order to avoid provocation by using absurdity.

    "Rick Rubin, who produced Toxicity for System of a Down, cites this song as one of his most important projects. He told Rolling Stone:
    "This song was originally going to be called “Self-Righteous Suicide,” and the record company rebelled. …I remember wanting to go to the mat and keep the title, and the band decided, “Let’s call it ‘Chop Suey!’” which I thought was kind of funny.
    "
    Chop-suey is the Americanization of the Chinese quick dish tsap sui, which means “odds and ends, mixed bits” in the Cantonese dialect. The song title is a play on “Self-right-Chop Suey-cide,” that has a further sort of humor in that they mixed up a controversial word into a nonsensical word to create a more ‘radio-friendly’ title."

    To respond to the description, the song is called "Chop Suey" because it's a play on words. "Self righ *TIOUS SUI* cide" or "Self-righ-CHOP-SUEY-cide." According to a Genius contributor, the band was forced to rename the song from simply "Suicide" to something more appropriate. That's why you hear in the beginning of the original song "We're rolling Suicide", because that's what the project was originally called.

      i don't think tious and chop sound similar at all, even if you try. I think its more of a tongue in cheek reference to how the simply "chopped" (or cut) the original title at the management's request. chop sui. It also works well because the dish is not homogeneous -- bunch of ingredients thrown together in soup; much like the song with its melodious and screaming, loud and soft parts.

    • @editsbyshock

      Several sources indicate the band wanted to replace provocation with absurdity in attempt to make the song name more radio friendly. They achieved this through wordplay. I'd link you sources myself, but I'm fairly certain UA-cam would mark the comment as spam. Google "Chop Suey song name" and those sources should appear.

    • @adecentdelinquent8986
      @adecentdelinquent8986 5 років тому +26

      Rick Rubin, who produced Toxicity for System of a Down, cites this song as one of his most important projects. He told Rolling Stone:
      This song was originally going to be called “Self-Righteous Suicide,” and the record company rebelled. …I remember wanting to go to the mat and keep the title, and the band decided, “Let’s call it ‘Chop Suey!’” which I thought was kind of funny.
      Chop-suey is the Americanization of the Chinese quick dish tsap sui, which means “odds and ends, mixed bits” in the Cantonese dialect. The song title is a play on “Self-right-Chop Suey-cide,” that has a further sort of humor in that they mixed up a controversial word into a nonsensical word to create a more ‘radio-friendly’ title.

While both this version and cranbarrie's zombie is something to be played repetitively as a form of torture.
