Dying for It is the second extended play by Scottish indie pop group The Vaselines, released in March 7 1988. The EP was later included on their career retrospective collection '. The song "Teenage Superstars" was later included as the fourth track on their debut album Dum-Dum in 1989. The song "Molly's Lips" is named in tribute to the well-known Scottish television personality Molly Weir.
Alternative rock figurehead Kurt Cobain listed the Dying for It EP as his fourth favorite 'album' ever. His band Nirvana covered "Molly's Lips", as well as a song from the earlier Vaselines EP, on their 1992 compilation Incesticide. Nirvana also performed the song "Jesus Doesn't Want Me for a Sunbeam" (original song name "Jesus Wants Me for a Sunbeam") for their MTV Unplugged in New York concert.
