Overdose (オーヴァードーズ) is a 1994 album by Pizzicato Five. It was their first full-length album after parting with founding member K-Taro Takanami. Setting a trend that would exist in later Pizzicato Five albums, Overdose is themed around a famous city, in this case New York City. Musically, the album delves in soul music, containing several references to Stevie Wonder, most prominently the harmonica solo of "On the Sunny Side of the Street". Overdose produced three singles: "Happy Sad", "Superstar" and "On The Sunny Side Of The Street". The song "Airplane" was later redone on the 1996 EP Sister Freedom Tapes, titled as "Airplane 96". Several tracks from Overdose appeared on the 1995 compilation album The Sound of Music by Pizzicato Five.
