Every week on the show we bring you a new song that you get to judge. Who doesn't love a bit of judgement of an evening.

This weeks track is Cobra Starship featuring Icona Pop. The last time Cobra Starship had a hit was in 2009 with the song 'Good Girls Go Bad' featuring the vocal stylings of Gossip Girl, Leighton Meester.

This time they have enlisted the effortless cool of Swedish duo, Icona Pop who hit it big with 'I Love It' written by and featuring Charli XCX. No, no one does songs by themselves anymore. Sure, feck it, why not have a musical free for all. 

The song is called 'Never Been In Love' and I want to know if you think it's Deadly or it should be dumped like day old cheesecake that the dog has gotten stuck into.

 

This is a definite departure from the electronic sound you might know Cobra Starship for. Lead singer and band leader, Gabe Soporta, was listening to a lot of early '90's UK acts and I think you can hear the watered down 'Happy Monday's' vibe on this track - but does it work?

Deadly or Dump it? It's up to you.

 

To refresh your memory, here's the song you know Cobra Starship for:
