Natalie Imbruglia has recorded 3 songs with Chris Martin

Natalie Imbruglia has joked that collaborating with Chris Martin was hard work.

The Australian singer has recorded material written by the Coldplay frontman, 32, for her new album.

'When I worked with Chris Martin he was very honest and brutal with me,' Natalie, 34, tells NME.

'He helped me with my tracklisting and we got rid of riff-raff. Sometimes we agreed, sometimes we disagreed...

'The hard bit is him saying which songs he doesn't like, but it's refreshing to have someone of that calibre with you. So yes - I had a semi-nervous breakdown.'

Natalie’s new album Come To Life will be released on 5 October.
