Lily Allen has released a new song that won't make it onto her forthcoming album because the chorus resembles a Take That song.

In a post on her Myspace page, Allen said she couldn't be “bothered” to explain why 'Who'd Of Known' would no longer make the record.

Reports have suggested that the song, which sounds not to dissimilar to Take That's 'Shine', could be about her recently rekindled relationship with Chemical Brothers star Ed Simons.

Allen's as-yet-untitled second album is due out later this year.
