JAY GORDON with "SLEPT SO LONG", from the 2002 album, "Queen of the Damned".

This video was made using MAGIX Movie Edit Pro MX Plus.

The gist of this song is extremely bitter indeed. Lost love turned into hatred and some, appropriate language in the lyrics, (in my opinion), that makes the pain sound, and feel, that much more intense. And all this coupled with conflicted feelings that culminate in the cry, "I hate you!"
Perhaps tomorrow will be a happier day for him. It will come.

Jay Gordon (born January 30, 1967) is an American singer. He is best known as the lead singer and original member of the rock band Orgy, which he founded in 1997.

Career
1997–2000
Orgy's first release, 1998's Candyass, would prove to be a huge success and earned a platinum certification in sales, which was primarily fueled by the popularity of their cover of New Order's "Blue Monday", as well as that of their first single, "Stitches". The band would release singles of both during this period, which would contain numerous remixes of the songs, some of which were created by Gordon himself, a trend which would continue to occur throughout all of Orgy's subsequent single releases.

In 2000, Orgy released their second full-length album, Vapor Transmission, which, despite gaining a quite respectable sales performance, did not repeat the wild success of its predecessor.

2000–present
The period following the release of Vapor Transmission proved to be a tumultuous period for the band. Orgy left Elementree and Reprise Records. Drummer Bobby Hewitt left the band in order to join his brother Fab Fernandez in the group Snake River Conspiracy, although he would eventually return. It would be four years between the release of Vapor Transmission and Orgy's third album, 2004's Punk Statik Paranoia.

In 2002, Gordon performed the song "Slept So Long" for the Queen of the Damned soundtrack, due to contractual limitations which restricted composer Jonathan Davis from performing the vocals to his composed songs as they appeared upon the actual soundtrack (although Davis did, in fact, perform all musical tracks within the movie itself). Gordon has also appeared with his band Orgy on other soundtracks such as Zoolander, which featured the previously unreleased song "Faces".

Gordon remixed "Points of Authority", a song by Linkin Park from their album Hybrid Theory, for the latter's remix album Reanimation. This was entitled "Pts.OF.Athrty", which was released as the first and only single of Reanimation, and has achieved moderate success at the Billboard charts.

In 2004, he voiced several characters for the video game Vampire: The Masquerade – Bloodlines.

Around 2004, Gordon would collaborate with Kinya Sawaguchi and members of TEAM Entertainment from Japan to work on an American rock and metal styled image album for the Daisuke Ishiwatari anime styled and rock inspired fighting game Guilty Gear XX. With only a week open, Gordon would serve as the supervisor and mixing engineer at his recording studio in Los Angeles, and hired burgeoning talent throughout L.A.'s rock and roll scene at the time to work on the album. Released on May 19, 2004, in Japan, the album would be known as Guilty Gear XX In L.A. Vocal Edition, remixing select songs with vocal renditions to capture the sound of the SoCal and West Coast American rock and metal scene with Ishiwatari's composition work and Guilty Gear's signature multi genre thrash and metal soundtrack.

In October 2010, members of Orgy collectively brought accusations against Gordon of having "fired the band". In response, Gordon released a public statement denying the claims. Orgy released a new single titled "Wide Awake and Dead" on March 18, 2014, and shot a video for "Wide Awake and Dead" on April 22. Orgy released the first of two EPs in 2015, titled Talk Sick, and an unnamed EP that was released in 2016.

QUEEN OF THE DAMNED: Music from the Motion Picture is the official soundtrack for the 2002 vampire film Queen of the Damned based on the Anne Rice novel of the same name. It released on February 19, 2002 via Warner Music Group and was produced by Richard Gibbs and Jonathan Davis of American nu metal band Korn. Frank Fitzpatrick and Rich Dickerson served as the music supervisors for the album.

History
The original motion picture soundtrack for the film was Jonathan Davis' first musical project outside of his band, Korn[citation needed]. Originally, he was supposed to perform vocals on the soundtrack, but due to limitations in his record label contract with Sony, prohibiting his voice to appear on disc, he could not. Jeff Scott Soto was subsequently hired to do the vocal work, but didn't make the final cut either. Instead, five of Jon's friends from other bands were chosen, including Wayne Static of Static-X, David Draiman of Disturbed, Chester Bennington of Linkin Park, Marilyn Manson, and Jay Gordon of Orgy. Head and Munky from Korn, Sam Rivers of Limp Bizkit, L. Shankar, Vinnie Colaiuta and Terry Bozzio rounded out the studio musicians.

This song was omitted from the soundtrack album, however Jonathan Davis released it in downloadable form via Amazon and iTunes on November 16, 2007. It is also available on the live album Alone I Play.
Five additional songs, all written and performed by Jonathan Davis, were recorded (as shown in the credits of the movie Queen of the Damned) but did not make it on the official soundtrack.
