Coldplay Get Timbaland

Chris Martin wasn't wrong when he said Coldplay's next album would sound radically different - the rockers have roped in hip hop maestro Timbaland to sex it up.

Super-talented Timbo told US GQ magazine he's coming over to the UK next month to get to work.

He revealed, "I try to get into their (Coldplay's) heads, see what they thinking about. I just try to figure out how they are feeling.

"And if they are feeling a certain way, I go by that. It's more about everyday life - then it (should) be about music."

Whoa, working with Mr 'SexyBack' and 'Maneater' himself is bound to give Chris and the boys a rush of blood to the, um, head...
