"Sick, Sick, Sick" is a song by American rock band Queens of the Stone Age from their 2007 album Era Vulgaris. It was released as a digital download from the U.S. iTunes Store on May 8, 2007.[1] The song features Julian Casablancas of The Strokes on backing vocals and synth guitar.[2] An EP also called Sick, Sick, Sick was given a limited release, containing the title track and three B-sides: a remix of "I'm Designer" and covers of Tom Waits' "Goin' Out West" and Elliott Smith's "Christian Brothers".

In a May 2007 interview with Dose magazine, frontman Josh Homme stated that the song is "the Fairy God Prince of the Gutter, touching everyone on the head and releasing them from their shackles of guilt".[3]
