He’s like a bird

Chris Martin is set to feature on the new album from Nelly Furtado.

The Coldplay singer features on ‘All Good Things’ - the closing track on Furtado’s forthcoming third album ‘Loose’.

Martin, who is also rumoured to be collaborating with Kanye West, guested on the track because he wanted to collaborate with celebrated Missy Elliott producer Timbaland, who worked on the album.

“I was telling (Chris) what I was up to, and he’s like ’I love Timbaland. Can I come by?’ But (Timbaland’s) like a big dude and Chris was scared to sit down at the keyboard. I’m like, ‘Chris, sit down. Let’s make some music.’ I’m always the instigator,” she told Rolling Stone.
