In a collaboration that's built up anticipation since the day it was first announced, Coldplay's teamup with Rihanna on a single titled "Princess of China" has made its way to the web.
The track is featured on the Chris Martin fronted British alternative rock band's upcoming album "Mylo Xyloto" - which is set to be released on Monday, October 24th.
Previously talking about how the pairing with Rihanna came to fruition, Martin said, "The album is designed as a whole piece. It has boy and girl lead characters and top of our list for the girl part was Rihanna, but it took a while to pluck up the courage to ask her. We did a show in Las Vegas and I met her and said, 'Do you think there's any chance?' I was very Hugh Grant-like and spluttering about it."
He continued, "She has such an amazing voice and it's so different to mine. When the vocal happened I thought 'Wow, you sound different' but I think that's also because she was singing a different song to what we are used to hearing from her and it is written by a bloke from Devon."
