"Vibeology" is a song from American singer Paula Abdul's second studio album, Spellbound (1991). The song was written by Peter Lord, Sandra St. Victor, and V. Jeffrey Smith. It was released as the third single from the album in Australia, Japan, and the United Kingdom and as the fourth single in North America. "Vibeology" was first released in October 1991 in Japan, followed by an Australian release in November and a UK release in January 1992.
"Vibeology" peaked at number 63 in Australia in December 1991 and at number 19 in the UK in January 1992. The single reached number 16 on the US Billboard Hot 100 in February 1992, becoming Abdul's first single to peak outside the top 10 in the US since the original release of "(It's Just) The Way That You Love Me" in 1988. It also reached number 17 on the Billboard Dance Club Songs chart.
Apparently, the original plan was to follow "The Promise Of A New Day" with "Vibeology", a daffy and fizzy house track.
