Hot Chip to work with Westlife? – Tabloid Hell

The indie-dance troupe are up for a collaboration

Hot Chip are reportedly keen for Westlife to cover a song from their new album.

According to The Sun's Bizzare page, the band's Felix Martin wishes the cringeworthy Irish boy band would try a version of their 'Made In The Dark' album highlight 'Bendable Poseable'.

The percussionist said: “We’ve got a song called 'Bendable Poseable' on the new record. I’d really like Westlife to cover it. A boy band version, with the moves, would be immense!”

Too right, Felix – although surely it would be better to keep quiet about Westlife in the hope they go away?
