The original line up of Sugababes, comprised of Siobhan Donaghy, Mutya Buena and Keisha Buchanan, released their debut single “Overload” on 11th September 2000. It was immediately successful, thanks mainly to a performance on Top of the Pops that same month, and an overwhelming positive reaction from music critics across the board.The song was written by the band members and their producer Cameron McVey, Paul Simm and Jony Rockstar. It’s sung in a three part harmony in F minor and samples Jefferson Airplane’s “White Rabbit” at the beginning.

Verse 1Strange fear I ain't felt for years
The boy's comin' and I'm close to tears
I can't let go
Of you now
Imagination's playing round for free
In my world I take him out for tea
Oh my god
He can't say no
Skippin' school gonna walk for e'er
I just had to get out of there.
I'm on overload
In my head
ChorusTrain comes I don't know its destination
it's a one way ticket to a mad man's situation
Train comes I don't know its destination
it's a one way ticket to a mad man's situation
Verse 2Life in a dream time does come true
And in my sleep I think of you
Feather bed
By myself
Basically probability
Says that fate's gonna side with me
it's been so long
On my shelf
ChorusTrain comes I don't know its destination
it's a one way ticket to a mad man's situation
Train comes I don't know its destination
it's a one way ticket to a mad man's situation
BridgeThe tension is incredible
Boy I'm in charge
You know how I feel for you
Will you stop or will you just keep goin'
Please don't say no (no no)
ChorusTrain comes I don't know its destination (yeah yeah yeah)
it's a one way ticket to a mad man's situation (situation)
Train comes I don't know it's destination (I know I know)
it's a one way ticket to a mad man's situation (Situation)
Train comes I don't know it's destination (I'll sleep with any man)
it's a one way ticket to a mad man's situation (Situation)
Train comes I don't know it's destination (I know I know)
it's a one way ticket to a mad man's situation (got me feeling sad)
