"Pash" is a pop song by Australian singer Kate Ceberano. It was released in 1997 as the first single from her sixth studio album of the same name. The track was co-written by Ceberano with the album's producer, Mark Goldenberg. In March 1998, it peaked at number 10 on the Australian ARIA Singles Chart and was certified gold by the Australian Recording Industry Association (ARIA) for shipment of 35,000 copies. In New Zealand, it reached the top 40. At the ARIA Music Awards of 1998, Ceberano was nominated for Best Female Artist for "Pash". AllMusic's Jonathan Lewis reviewed the album and observed, "The '60s-influenced pop of the title track became her biggest hit since 'Bedroom Eyes'."
