Kylie Minogue teams with Snow Patrol in what comes as one of the year’s most unexpected collaborations: ‘These Alarms.’

Initially set for their chart-topping ‘The Forest is the Path’ album, reports have it the Irish Rock band held the song until they could officially record it with the Aussie Pop Queen.

“As a huge Kylie fan, I originally wrote ‘These Alarms’ with her in mind…All the way through the recording process, the song was simply called ‘KYLIE.’ But when we finished the song, we quickly realised something huge was missing from it. We all knew it was Kylie’s voice that was the missing piece,” said the group’s frontman Gary Lightbody. “Kylie recorded her wonderful voice on it, and finally, the song felt complete.”

The band’s first release under their new deal with BMG, hop inside to hear ‘Alarms’ in full.
