Don't speak 收錄在搖滾團體NO DOUBT於1995年推出的第三張專輯《Tragic Kingdom》中,在當年甫推出便橫掃歐美數國音樂排行榜冠軍,也因為這首歌奠定了Gwen Stefani於90年代美國搖滾女神的地位,可以說是在當年相當有影響力的曲子。
雖然歌曲MV似乎在說著,Gwen巨大的存在感,讓整個樂團被邊緣化的可怕,但這首曲子一般來說最廣為人知的起源,便是Gwen與團員Tony Kanal之間7年情斷後的自我剖析,原本定調於情歌的曲子就因為這段情事大幅改寫成現在的樣貌,幸與不幸就是這麼巧妙,一對同團情侶分手往往會對團體帶來毀滅性的打擊,但是這段情衍生的這首歌,卻也將NO DOUBT帶向了他們演藝生涯的高峰。
