Overkill - Men at work

'Overkill' was released as a single from the 1983 Men at work album 'Cargo'. It was written by lead singer Colin Hay, reaching number 3 in the US Billboard Hot 100 chart, number 21 in the UK singles chart and number 16 in the Dutch Top 40.

The song found a second life nineteen years later when it was used in the US sitcom 'Scrubs' in the episode 'My overkill'. Colin Hay performed a cameo in which he performed the song acoustically.
