   We were recording this album before we went to Ozzfest. We had 10 songs written and recorded, but we weren't feeling it would be the whole album. We wanted to add 3 or 4 more songs, so we came back to record them. Then our record company was like 'Hey, we'd really love to have a single' and our management, The Firm said 'We would really like to have a smash hit single, man, can you dig it?'. We were really appalled by that scene. They wanted 'Got the Life' or 'Freak on a Leash', and that shit wasn't flying with us at all! For the first time in our lives we were dissecting our music, and try to analyze the structure of those songs, trying to figure out what made them huge hits. But Korn never works like that, and while we're all were wondering, Jonathan came up with a line: 'Y'all want a single? Say: FUCK THAT!' and we wrote Y'All Want a Single as a big 'fuck you' to them. Damn, Jonathan is really good at motivating us this way." – James Shaffer

   Actually, what I'd heard when the song was first released, was this: Because the band was under contract by the record label, they were obligated to deliver music to the label. They had fallen behind, or had not released anything. The label demanded they produce a single. So... you all wanna single? Say F@ck that! This was KoRn's middle finger to the record label. ----JWBRN

   the song is about how their record company asked them to make a more kid friendly and family oriented singing because alot of people liked there music but it was vulgar as hell at the time, so as a response they made this as a "fucky you!" for trying to tell them what kind of music to play
