Derided by critics early in his career, Weiland was known for his flamboyant and chaotic onstage persona; he was also known for constantly changing his appearance and vocal style, for his use of a megaphone in concerts for vocal effect, and for his battles with substance abuse. Now widely viewed as a talented and versatile vocalist, Weiland has been ranked in the Top 100 Heavy Metal Vocalists by Hit Parader (No. 57).
In 2012, Weiland formed the backing band The Wildabouts. The band received mixed reviews, and some critics and fans noted Weiland's failing health. In December 2015, Weiland died of an accidental drug overdose on his tour bus in Minnesota at the age of 48. Upon his death, many critics and peers offered re-evaluations of Weiland's life and career; those critics included David Fricke of Rolling Stone and Billy Corgan of The Smashing Pumpkins, who identified Weiland as one of the "voices of the generation" alongside Kurt Cobain and Layne Staley.

Way She Moves
Scott Weiland Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
And understand the words she uses
We like to feel the same and touch each other
Look each other in the eye
Ooh Ooh Ooh
The sandman's coming round
Ooh Ooh Ooh
I sometimes just don't get the way
Understand it's about the way she talks
But all I wanna do is love her
All I wanna do is watch the way she walks
Ooh Ooh Ooh
The sandman's coming round
But she'll make him cry
She's never coming down
When we're hangin' 'round
We can always be found
Even when there's nothing but sound
She's never coming down
When we're hangin' 'round
We can always be found
Even when there's nothing but sound
Since I met her
No I never could have ever
Ever ever let her out of my mind
We like to feel the same and touch each other
Look each other in the eye
Ooh Ooh
The sandman's coming round
But she'll make him cry
She's never coming down
When we're hangin' 'round
We can always be found
Even when there's nothing but sound
She's never coming down
When we're hangin' 'round
We can always be found
Even when there's nothing but sound
Oh yeah yeah, yeah c'mon
She's never coming down
When we're hangin' 'round
We can always be found
Even when there's nothing but sound
She's never coming down
When we're hangin' 'round
We can always be found
Even when there's nothing but sound
C'mon c'mon yeah yeah
C'mon c'mon
C'mon c'mon yeah
