"Never Say Never" is a 1982 song by the New Wave band Romeo Void. "Never Say Never" was a favorite on early MTV. The song is driven by a throbbing, funky bassline and punctuated by jagged guitar. It's been written, however, that "it's Debora Iyall's teasing, existential musings — which predated and predicted the aloof yet frank sexuality of early- and mid-'90s artists such as Elastica and Liz Phair — that elevate 'Never Say Never' from a mere post-punk relic into a subversive, influential classic." The song's repeated refrain of "I might like you better if we slept together" has been called "one of rock's all-time greatest lines," http://wm02.allmusic.com/cg/amg.dll?p=amg&sql=33:0bfqxxw5ldhe because it works as a come-on and a put-down, simultaneously. But beyond mere titillation, a "careful listen to the verses, with their intimations of incest, murder, homelessness, and other dark subjects, makes plain that singer/lyricist Debora Iyall has more on her mind than grudging salaciousness." http://www.allmusic.com/cg/amg.dll?p=amg&sql=11:p9c8b5b4tsq4~T1
