Composition
"Overload" is a pop and R&B song with elements of soul and hip hop. Amy Raphael of The Observer described it as a "smoothly produced, seductive R&B track". According to the digital sheet music published by EMI, the song is written in the key of F-sharp major using common time, at a tempo of 98 beats per minute. The Sugababes' vocal range in the song spans from the higher note of F#3 to the lower note of G5. The song's line, "Train comes, I don't know its destination", is sung in "minor key harmony". Matthew Horton of Virgin Media noted that the song contains "huffling beats, honeyed vocals and surf guitar".

Famous quotes containing the word composition:
“When I think of God, when I think of him as existent, and when I believe him to be existent, my idea of him neither increases nor diminishes. But as it is certain there is a great difference betwixt the simple conception of the existence of an object, and the belief of it, and as this difference lies not in the parts or composition of the idea which we conceive; it follows, that it must lie in the manner in which we conceive it.”
—David Hume (1711–1776)
“The proposed Constitution ... is, in strictness, neither a national nor a federal constitution; but a composition of both.”
—James Madison (1751–1836)
“There is singularly nothing that makes a difference a difference in beginning and in the middle and in ending except that each generation has something different at which they are all looking. By this I mean so simply that anybody knows it that composition is the difference which makes each and all of them then different from other generations and this is what makes everything different otherwise they are all alike and everybody knows it because everybody says it.”
—Gertrude Stein (1874–1946)
