"Situation" is a song by English drum and bass musician and TikToker A Little Sound and English girl group Sugababes.[1] It was released as a single on 30 August 2024.[2][3]
"Situation" interpolates the chorus from the Sugababes' debut 2000 single "Overload".[4][5][6] The verses consist of new lyrics. The song was produced by Billen Ted and Kove. A Little Sound stated, "I was in a session with Billen Ted and incredible writer Katy Tiz when we realised the chord progression reminded us of something,” she recounts. “Billen Ted started humming the melody to "Overload", and from then, we decided it would be stupid not to give it a go. Katy and I wrote verses to complement the hook, and before we knew it, Sugababes really liked what we’d done and were keen to jump on it with us [...] It took one more studio session to get the girls' harmonies on top of the track, and then we were set for an official release."[7][8]
An official visualiser, filmed on 21 August 2024, was released on the same day as the single's release. The video begins with A Little Sound waiting at a bus stop for the Sugababes, before being joined by them after which they are seen on board a night bus.[9] They each switch places and move around the bus during the video, which is sped up.[10][7]
