'The Voice' coach has a catchy new single.
Gwen Stefani made her The Voice debut last month, but now the blonde bombshell is officially back on the music scene.
Gwen unveiled her new solo single "Baby Don't Lie" on Monday, and it's just as catchy as we'd hoped! But with co-writers/producers Benny Blanco, Ryan Tedder and Noel Zancanella on board, we'd expect nothing less.

The song is Stefani's first solo effort since her 2006 album Sweet Escape, although her band No Doubt made a triumphant return to music in 2012 with Push and Shove.

Gwen Stefani's new solo single "Baby Don't Lie" is out, and it's running all over the place. At first it threatens to be a gum-chewing M.I.A. hip-hop hybrid. Then it soars straight into Ellie Goulding dance-pop territory, and then mid-tempo love song with a hiccup at the end, plus a OneRepublic counter-melody on the tags after the chorus. Then Iggy Azalea's influence rears its head. Well, at least the whiff of OneRepublic can be partly to all of the co-songwriters: Ryan Tedder, who worked with Benny Blanco and Noel Zancanella to write this sonic Frankenstein.

Interscope has been dutifully taking down the audio clips, but you can still hop on over to this link if you want to listen to it — or just wait 24 hours or so for the official drop. For what it's worth, it's not terribly exciting.
