Vibeology

"Vibeology" is a song recorded by American singer and dancer Paula Abdul. It was written by Sandra St. Victor, Peter Lord and V. Jeffrey Smith, with the production handled by the last two and was released as the fourth single from Abdul's second studio album, Spellbound (1991). It was originally going to be released as Spellbounds third single after Abdul had performed it live at the 1991 MTV Video Music Awards, but at the time "Blowing Kisses in the Wind" was being sent to radio airplay and was a popular choice for listeners.
