Kylie Minogue collaboration deemed 'too sexy' for Coldplay album

Coldplay have revealed that they recorded a song with Kylie Minogue, but it was deemed "too sexy" to make the cut for their new album, 'Viva La Vida Or Death And All His Friends'.

Frontman Chris Martin revealed that the track was entitled 'Lunar', and that it would appear on an LP the band will release as early as 2009.

"At this point we cannot be that sexy," he said, referring to why the track didn't make the cut for the enw album. "It's a song called 'Lunar' and Kylie is particularly brilliant on it.

"It will be on a record we will put out in 2009, some time at the end of next year. It will be track nine, I imagine."

The singer went on the say that another song that will appear on the album will be a full vocal version of Life In Technicolour', an instrumental song on 'Viva…'. "It will neatly wrap up things for the end of the decade," he said. "Then, I don't know what we'll do."
