Overnight Sensation is a 1996 album by the heavy metal band, Motörhead. It is the first album to feature the current line up.
Following the departure of Würzel in 1995, the band returned to the same three man formula as "the classic Motörhead line up"; Bass Guitar/Vocals, Lead Guitar and Drums. This album is also the first, since Ace of Spades, to have a picture of the band on the cover. Despite being only a three piece, the band have a heavier style on this work than on their last album, Sacrifice.
It is believed that the song "Love Can't Buy You Money" is about Lemmy's reaction to Wurzel's departure from the band.
