"Travolta" (later retitled "Quote Unquote") is a song by American experimental rock band Mr. Bungle, released in 1991 as the opening track and promotional single from their self-titled debut album.
Although the song was originally titled "Travolta", it was quickly changed to "Quote Unquote" due to legal threats. The song's music video, directed by Kevin Kerslake, was banned from MTV due to its images of the band members hanging from meat hooks.
AllMusic believes the song to be a tribute to John Travolta and fellow actor Patrick Swayze, although it also contains references to Adolf Hitler. A biography of Travolta by Bob McCabe was titled Quote, Unquote after the song. The main theme from the 1978 film Grease, in which Travolta starred, is interpolated twice in the song.
