Gwen Stefani Stands and Delivers New Tune

No Doubt covers the Adam and the Ants '80s classic "Stand and Deliver"

Adam and the Ants have walked into No Doubt's spiderweb.

A cover version of the New Wave band's 1981hit "Stand and Deliver" by Gwen Stefani and Co. has leaked onto the Internet and is already getting some serious radio airplay.

While we were a bit nervous going into it, fearing they would try to outdo the original, the group wisely chose to play it pretty close to the vest and, as a result, the song comes across as more of an homage to one of their musical influences than anything else.

No Doubt will be performing the song on the May 11 episode of Gossip Girl, just days after the band kicks off its first tour in five years on May 2 in Atlantic City.

So have a listen here and let us know what you think.
