Music and structure


The song was based around an unfinished idea from the era of 2002's Untouchables. James "Munky" Shaffer had written the main riff and played it frequently during the sessions, but producer Michael Beinhorn did not see potential in it. In early 2003, Korn completed the whole song, and caught the attention of Paramount Pictures who wanted to use it in the film Lara Croft Tomb Raider: The Cradle of Life. However, the song was only released as a single for the film, and featured during the end credits. It did not appear on the motion picture soundtrack, due to certain clauses in Jonathan Davis's record contract at the time,[1] the same reason why Davis could not release the original versions of the songs he composed for the Queen of the Damned soundtrack, which featured his vocals. The instrumental version of "Did My Time" was also featured on the PlayStation 2 fighting game "Fight Club" and VH1's 100 most shocking music moments in the discussion of the Woodstock 1999 riot.


Concept


"It's basically about things in my life that keep going on. When am I fucking finally gonna get a break? I'm saying 'I paid my dues I did my time.' All the messed up shit going on in my life. When is something good gonna happen?" – Jonathan Davis


Chart performance


"Did My Time" became Korn's first and only top forty entry on the Hot 100, peaking at number thirty-eight in August 2003,[2] due to the physical sales of the CD single.

Music video


A video was directed by Dave Meyers, mainly known for his work with rapper Missy Elliott, featuring the star of Lara Croft Tomb Raider: The Cradle of Life, Angelina Jolie.[1] The video shows Angelina Jolie walking through an alley when the ground starts to crack. A black mist rises out of the cracks, which then transforms into the band when the main riff of the song starts. The black mist around them starts becomes bigger as the song progresses. In the end of the music video, the band disappears and the cracks disappear as well. Scenes from the movie are shown during the video.


Awards


The song received a nomination at the 2004 Grammy Awards for Best Metal Performance, but lost to Metallica's "St. Anger".[23] This would be Korn's fourth nomination in the aforementioned category and their sixth overall.

[ru] Did My Time

Did My Time — песня ню-метал-группы Korn и первый сингл с их шестого студийного альбома, Take a Look in the Mirror, а также промосингл к фильму Лара Крофт: Расхитительница гробниц 2 — Колыбель жизни. Песня является рабочим неизданным материалом с альбома Untouchables. Джеймс «Манки» Шаффер написал основной рифф и играл его каждый день, но продюсер Майкл Бейнхорн принял решение не оставлять этот материал. В начале 2003 Korn закончили работу над песней и привлекли внимание Парамаунт Пикчерз, которая захотела использовать «Did My Time» в фильме Лара Крофт: Расхитительница гробниц 2 — Колыбель жизни. Несмотря на то, что песня вышла в виде сингла к фильму и было снято видео с участием Анджелины Джоли, песня не вошла в саундтрек кинофильма из-за условий контракта со звукозаписывающим лейблом. «Did My Time» стал единственным синглом Korn, сумевшим попасть в топ-40 чарта Billboard Hot 100, на 38-е место по результатам физических продаж дисков. Также сингл добился успеха в чартах Modern Rock и Mainstream Rock.
