"Vasoline" is a song by the band Stone Temple Pilots from their second album Purple. The song was the second single of the album (and also the second most successful, only behind "Interstate Love Song"). The song's odd sounding intro was created by Robert DeLeo, who ran his bass through a Wah-wah pedal to get the said effect. The song's lyrics were written by Scott Weiland, now of Velvet Revolver. In 2007, Velvet Revolver began playing "Vasoline" live at many of their shows. "Vasoline" is a playable track in the video game Rock Band as well as SingStar Amped. The song is also covered by the band Velvet Revolver.
