Limp Bizkit’s “Nookie” Started as a Joke

MUSIC THAT MATTERS – “Lyric of the Day”

(Music Cut #1)

Released yesterday back in 1999…

a ridiculous little word

helped launch one of the biggest rock albums of the year.

“Nookie”

from Limp Bizkit.

(Music Cut #2)

Guitarist Wes Borland saw the word “nookie”

on a “fun” magazine in the studio…

and tossed it out as a temporary title.

Basically:

who would actually name a song “Nookie”?

(Music Cut #3)

Fred Durst ran with it.

And that ridiculous word

became a breakup song

about betrayal,

insecurity,

and not being able to walk away

from a bad relationship.
