Listen to Coldplay and Cat Power's collaboration

Listen to "Wish I Was Here" via NPR. The track is taken from the new Zach Braff film of the same name and the song sounds like it was meant to be. The piano led track can easily fit into Coldplay's new album, it's just stunning!

Here's how it was made: Zach Braff, the creator of the film "Wish I Was Here", gave an early version of the film to Coldplay's Chris Martin. Braff said:

"Martin got the band together to work on the song. "Chris had the idea that it would be sung by a woman. I thought that was a genius idea, because one of the things the film is about is a strong woman (Kate Hudson's character) becoming the matriarch of her family. When Chris and I were talking, we both kind of simultaneously said, 'Cat Power.' I reached out to Chan Marshall (aka Cat Power) and she and I met and really clicked. I set her up to watch the film in her apartment. The whole time she was watching she kept texting me all the different parts she was loving. She said yes the instant it was over."
