"All Day Long I Dream About Sex" is a song by American recording artist

synth-rock pop music. The single was released in Europe and Australia in August 2004, and in the United States
in October 2004.

Background

The song was composed after Chasez wanted to recreate a Duran Duran and the Killers type of sound.[1] "'All Day Long I Dream About Sex’ is supposed to be loud, fun & obnoxious. I haven’t heard a great party song like a ‘(You Gotta) Fight for Your Right (To Party!)’ or a ‘We’re Not Gonna Take It’ in so long. Something loud & in your face & good for a laugh!'" Chasez said.[2]

Music video

The music video for "All Day Long I Dream About Sex" was directed by Todd Kellstein and produced by

adult films.[4][5] A more risqué version was shot for European audiences.[3]

Release and promotion

Radio was reluctant to play the single due to fear of FCC fines relating to the Super Bowl XXXVIII halftime show controversy.[6] In addition, the music video was not aired on MTV.[3][7] Chasez said: "'MTV doesn’t want to put it in rotation unless it has radio spins, and radio stations aren’t gonna push a song as hard unless you have MTV playing the video. We all know how that works.'”[3]

In response to the pushback against "All Day Long", Chasez shifted promotion to the ballad "Build My World".[4] The promotional period for Schizophrenic concluded before "Build My World" could officially be promoted as a third single from the album.[8]

Reception

Despite no promotion in the U.S., the single was well received in the

electro-pop parfait".[12] Doug Rule of Metro Weekly wrote that the song has a "fascinating acoustic meets electronica sound and an extended instrumental bridge that glistens with updated '80s synth-pop."[13]

Other versions

Apollo Zero reconstructed a mashup featuring the instrumentals and background vocals of the Chasez single with Rick James' vocals from "Super Freak", calling it "All Day Long I Dream About Sex...With a Superfreak". Other underground remixes include the Oddesy 9 Remix, the Sleeper Cell Remix, and the Stengaard Radio Mix.[10]
