"Overjoyed" is a song written and performed by American R&B singer Stevie Wonder for the Tamla (Motown) label. It appears on his 1985 album In Square Circle. The single reached No. 24 on the Billboard Hot 100 chart in April 1986 and stayed in the Top 40 for six weeks. It also became a No. 1 hit on the adult contemporary chart, marking the eighth and final No. 1 of Wonder's career on that chart. Another version of the single included an instrumental version on the B-side.

The song was originally written for the 1979 album Journey Through "The Secret Life of Plants" but was not included on that album. It was later re-recorded for In Square Circle. The liner notes for the song list sounds such as crickets, nightingale calls, bird sounds, ocean waves, pebbles in a pond, a stone being dropped, and crushing leaves under the category "environmental percussion." The song was first performed live on May 7, 1983, during an episode of Saturday Night Live, where Wonder was both the host and musical guest.

Billboard described the song as using "unusual audio effects" to present Wonder's typical wordplay in a new way.
